DISPLAY PANEL AND DISPLAY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18071150 titled 'DISPLAY PANEL AND DISPLAY APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display panel with two dam structures and a sealing structure covering an emitting array. The second sealing layer of the sealing structure has a cross section with a greater curvature than the first sealing layer.
- The display panel includes two dam structures and a sealing structure.
- The first dam structure is in contact with one side of the display area in a non-display area.
- The second dam structure is in contact with another side of the display area in the non-display area.
- The first and second dam structures have the same thickness.
- The sealing structure covers an emitting array.
- The second sealing layer of the sealing structure has a cross section with a greater curvature than the first sealing layer.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Display panels for electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions.
- Display panels for automotive applications, such as in-car entertainment systems or heads-up displays.
- Display panels for wearable devices, such as smartwatches or augmented reality glasses.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides improved sealing and protection for the emitting array of a display panel.
- Helps prevent dust, moisture, or other contaminants from entering the display area.
- Enhances the durability and lifespan of the display panel.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved display panel reliability and longevity.
- Enhanced visual quality and performance of the display.
- Increased resistance to environmental factors, such as dust or moisture.
- Potential for thinner and more compact display designs.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display panel includes a first dam structure disposed in a first surrounding area in contact with one side of a display area in a non-display area, a second dam structure disposed in a second surrounding area in contact with another side of the display area in the non-display area and having a same thickness as the first dam structure, and a sealing structure covering an emitting array. A second sealing layer of the sealing structure includes a first side portion corresponding to the first dam structure and having a cross section with a first curvature and a second side portion corresponding to the second dam structure and having a cross section with a second curvature greater than the first curvature.
