COVER PLATE AND DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17908644 titled 'COVER PLATE AND DISPLAY DEVICE

The present disclosure pertains to a cover plate and a display device in the field of displays. The cover plate consists of a substrate, a first buffer layer, and a second buffer layer. The substrate has a first surface facing a flexible display panel and a second surface. The first buffer layer is on the first surface with an elastic modulus ranging from 10 MPa to 2 GPa. The second buffer layer is on the second surface with an elastic modulus ranging from 60 MPa to 7 GPa. Both buffer layers can deform to absorb stress when the cover plate is impacted, protecting the substrate, increasing strength, and reducing damage possibilities. The first buffer layer enhances protection for the flexible display panel, while the second buffer layer provides stronger strength due to its greater rigidity. This setup reduces strain transferred to the substrate during impacts, further decreasing damage risks.

  • The cover plate includes a substrate, a first buffer layer, and a second buffer layer.
  • The first buffer layer has an elastic modulus ranging from 10 MPa to 2 GPa, while the second buffer layer's modulus ranges from 60 MPa to 7 GPa.
  • Both buffer layers can deform to absorb stress upon impact, protecting the substrate and increasing the cover plate's strength.
  • The first buffer layer enhances protection for the flexible display panel, while the second buffer layer provides stronger strength due to its greater rigidity.
  • This design reduces strain transferred to the substrate during impacts, lowering the risk of damage.

Potential Applications: - Display devices - Electronic gadgets - Protective covers for screens

Problems Solved: - Damage prevention for display devices - Increased strength and durability of cover plates - Enhanced protection for flexible display panels

Commercial Applications: Title: Impact-Resistant Cover Plates for Display Devices This technology can be used in various electronic devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, to provide enhanced protection against impacts, increasing the lifespan of the devices and reducing repair costs.

Questions about Impact-Resistant Cover Plates for Display Devices:

1. How does the elastic modulus of the buffer layers affect the impact resistance of the cover plate? The elastic modulus of the buffer layers determines their ability to deform and absorb stress upon impact, reducing the strain transferred to the substrate and minimizing damage risks.

2. What are the potential commercial applications of this technology beyond display devices? This technology can also be applied to protective covers for various electronic gadgets, such as cameras and smartwatches, to enhance their durability and impact resistance.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a cover plate and a display device, belonging to the field of displays. The cover plate includes a substrate, a first buffer layer and a second buffer layer. The substrate includes a first surface and a second surface, and the first surface faces a flexible display panel. The first buffer layer is laminated on the first surface, and an elastic modulus of the first buffer layer ranges from 10 MPa to 2 GPa. The second buffer layer is laminated on the second surface, and an elastic modulus of the second buffer layer ranges from 60 MPa to 7 GPa. When the cover plate is impacted, both the first buffer layer and the second buffer layer can deform to absorb stress, so as to protect the substrate, increase the strength of the cover plate, and reduce the possibility of damage to the cover plate. The protection effect of the first buffer layer on the flexible display panel is increased. In addition, the rigidity of the second buffer layer is greater than the rigidity of the first buffer layer, such that second buffer layer has stronger strength. When the cover plate is impacted, the amount of strain transferred to the substrate is reduced, and the possibility of damage to the cover plate is further reduced.
