DISPLAY MODULE, DISPLAY PANEL, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE DISPLAY PANEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244188 titled 'DISPLAY MODULE, DISPLAY PANEL, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE DISPLAY PANEL

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display module with a window and a display panel. The window includes a base substrate and a bezel pattern, while the display panel includes a glass substrate, an encapsulation substrate, a sealing member, a circuit element layer, and a display element layer.

  • The bezel pattern on the window includes a first bezel pattern along the edge of the base substrate and a second bezel pattern that extends from the first bezel pattern. The second bezel pattern has a transmission area.
  • The display panel has a glass substrate and an encapsulation substrate, which are connected by a sealing member that overlaps the first bezel pattern.
  • The circuit element layer, which includes a transistor, is placed on the glass substrate.
  • The display element layer, which includes light emitting elements, is placed on the circuit element layer. It exposes a portion of the layer beneath it, corresponding to the transmission area.

Potential Applications

  • This display module can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions.
  • It can also be used in automotive displays, wearable devices, and other display applications.

Problems Solved

  • The bezel pattern and the sealing member provide a secure and aesthetically pleasing connection between the window and the display panel.
  • The exposed portion of the layer beneath the display element layer allows for the transmission of light, enhancing the display quality.

Benefits

  • The display module provides a sleek and seamless design with a bezel pattern that overlaps the base substrate.
  • The transmission area in the bezel pattern allows for improved display quality and visibility.
  • The secure connection between the window and the display panel ensures durability and longevity of the display module.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display module includes a window including a base substrate and a bezel pattern overlapping the base substrate in a plan view, and a display panel. The bezel pattern includes a first bezel pattern extending along an edge of the base substrate, and a second bezel pattern which extends from the first bezel pattern and of which at least a portion defines a transmission area. The display panel includes a glass substrate, an encapsulation substrate on the glass substrate, a sealing member coupling the glass substrate and the encapsulation substrate and overlapping the first bezel pattern in the plan view, a circuit element layer disposed on the glass substrate and including a transistor, and a display element layer disposed on the circuit element layer and including light emitting elements. The display element layer exposes a portion of a layer disposed thereunder, which corresponds to the transmission area.
