In various display devices, especially those having a large screen (usually over 12 inches), the display device has a larger display panel size and a larger number of driver ICs, so that the heat generation of the display device is more obvious.
In a conventional large-size screen design, a support of a display device is directly bonded with a middle frame of the whole machine through high-viscosity glue such as acrylic glue, a back bending area (pad bending) connected with a display panel is bonded on the back of the middle frame (namely the surface of one side of the middle frame far away from the support), and a driving IC is arranged on the back bending area to realize the control of the display panel. However, the general polyester viscose has poor high temperature resistance, when the display device is used for a long time, the heating condition of the display device is serious, the viscose is easy to lose efficacy, the back bending area falls off, the problems that the display effect is influenced by poor contact of the driving IC and the like can occur, and meanwhile, the heating of the display panel can not be dissipated timely, the burn of the internal wiring of the panel can be caused, and the service life of the display device is influenced.
In order to solve the above problem, a first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display device, a schematic structural diagram of which is shown in fig. 1, the display device at least includes a display panel 10, a supporting member 20 for supporting the display panel 10, and a middle frame 30 for protecting the display panel 10 and the supporting member 20 and facilitating assembly with a complete machine. Specifically, the display panel 10 is connected to a first surface of the supporting member 20 (i.e., a bottom surface of the supporting member 20 in fig. 1), and the supporting member 20 is usually made of metal, so that the supporting member has a good heat conduction effect on the basis of having a strong supporting performance, and is convenient for dissipating heat generated by the display panel 10.
For the large-sized display panel 10, which generates more heat during operation and requires the display device to have better heat dissipation performance, the second surface (i.e. the surface opposite to the first surface, the top surface of the support 20 in fig. 1) of the support 20 in this embodiment is provided with at least one heat dissipation hole 21 (not shown in fig. 1), which is mainly disposed in the central area of the second surface of the support 20, so that the specific surface S of the support 20 is increased without affecting the supporting performance of the support 20, and the support 20 dissipates more heat at the same time, thereby achieving better heat dissipation effect. During actual manufacturing, the heat dissipation holes 21 may be specifically set as blind holes, so as to improve the supporting strength of the supporting member 20 while ensuring the heat dissipation effect, and the heat dissipation blind holes are used for further explanation hereinafter.
The middle frame 30 is disposed on a side of the supporting member 20 away from the display panel 10, and the middle frame 30 and the supporting member 20 are fixedly connected by a connecting member 40 (as shown by a dashed line in fig. 1), and the middle frame 30 and the supporting member 20 are not in direct contact, and a certain gap is provided therebetween, so that heat insulation between the supporting member 20 and the middle frame 30 is achieved by air or other gas filled in the gap, thereby preventing heat emitted by the display panel 10 from being transferred to the middle frame 30 via the supporting member, affecting the heat dissipation effect of the back bending region 50 disposed on the middle frame 30, and simultaneously ensuring that the heat of the back bending region 50 is not transferred to the display panel 10. In addition, the connecting piece 40 is different from the colloid used in the prior art, and the connecting piece cannot lose the connecting function due to the influence of temperature, and although there may be a certain influence on the occupied space of the display device, the risk of bad connection between the supporting piece 20 and the middle frame 30 caused by the failure of the colloid material can be avoided, and meanwhile, the heat dissipation area of the display device is increased, and the heat dissipation effect is improved.
The second surface of the supporting member 21 is usually provided with a plurality of blind heat dissipating holes 21, so as to realize the purpose of raising the specific surface S of the supporting member 20 by the opening of the blind heat dissipating holes, and it can be known from the equation Q/t ═ S that the larger the specific surface S of the material is, the more the heat Q is dissipated by the material at the same time t, and thus the heat dissipating performance of the supporting member 20 is raised. In some embodiments, any two of the blind heat dissipation holes 21 are not overlapped, and the number of the blind heat dissipation holes 21 can be determined according to the size of the blind heat dissipation holes 21, the surface area of the second surface of the support member 20, and the heat dissipation requirement; the sum of the orthographic projection areas of all the heat dissipation blind holes 21 perpendicular to the second surface of the support member 20 is usually set to account for 60% to 80% of the surface area of the second surface of the support member 20, if the area is less than 60%, the required heat dissipation effect may not be achieved, and if the area exceeds 80%, the number of the heat dissipation blind holes 21 is too large, which may affect the support performance of the support member 20, and after the display panel 10 is attached, the stamping risk of the display panel 10 is easily generated.
Furthermore, the depth of the blind heat dissipation hole 21 is determined according to the thickness of the support 20, and generally does not exceed 1/2 of the thickness of the support 20, and if the depth of the blind heat dissipation hole 21 is too deep, the thickness of the support 20 at the corresponding position is reduced, which affects the supporting performance of the support 20.
When actually manufacturing the heat dissipation blind hole 21, the shape of the heat dissipation blind hole 21 may be set to be circular, rectangular, triangular or any other shape as long as the design requirement is met, and the shape is not limited in this embodiment. However, in general, the sizes of the plurality of blind heat dissipation holes 21 disposed on the same supporting member 20 are the same, and the situations that the sizes of some blind heat dissipation holes 21 are larger and the sizes of some blind heat dissipation holes 21 are smaller do not occur, so that the stress distribution of the supporting member 20 is more uniform, and the supporting performance of the supporting member 20 is not affected. When arranging of blind hole 21 dispels the heat, as long as let a plurality of blind hole 21 of dispelling the heat relatively even set up on support piece 20 second face can, and the distance between arbitrary two adjacent blind hole 21 of dispelling the heat should not be too near, lead to support piece 20's support intensity to descend easily, therefore, under the condition of not restricting the blind hole 21 shape of dispelling the heat, this embodiment restricts the distance L between arbitrary two adjacent blind hole 21 of dispelling the heat all be greater than blind hole 21's circumscribed circle radius R can, if blind hole 21 dispels the heat is the circular port, then it can to prescribe a limit to the distance between arbitrary two adjacent blind hole 21 of dispelling the heat to be greater than blind hole 21 radius of dispelling the heat. In some embodiments, the radius of the circumscribed circle of the blind heat dissipation hole 21 is set to be between 1 cm and 5 cm, if the radius is too small, the blind heat dissipation hole 21 cannot achieve a good heat dissipation effect, and if the radius exceeds 5 cm, the strength of the remaining support member 20 at the position of the blind heat dissipation hole 21 is reduced, which easily affects the display effect of the display device.
Fig. 2 and 3 respectively show two arrangements of the blind heat dissipation holes 21 on the premise that the blind heat dissipation holes 21 are circular holes. The blind heat dissipation holes 21 shown in fig. 2 are randomly arranged on the second surface of the support member 20, and no special position limitation exists between adjacent blind heat dissipation holes 21 as long as L is greater than R; the blind heat dissipating holes 21 shown in fig. 3 are arranged in an array on the second surface of the support member 20. In actual installation, the number, size and position of the blind heat dissipation holes 21 may be designed according to the size of the supporting member 20 and the heat dissipation requirement of the display device, and the embodiment is not particularly limited.
Further, the connecting member 40 at least includes a plurality of first connecting structures 41 respectively disposed at four corners of the second surface of the supporting member 20 and a plurality of second connecting structures 42 disposed at four corners of the first surface of the middle frame 30, wherein the first surface of the middle frame 30 is a surface close to the second surface of the supporting member 20, and the first connecting structures 41 and the second connecting structures 42 are matched with each other in shape and function to realize connection and fixation of the supporting member 20 and the middle frame 30, so the number of the first connecting structures 41 and the second connecting structures 42 should be the same, and the positions of the first connecting structures 41 and the positions of the second connecting structures 42 on the supporting member 20 and the middle frame 30 are corresponding to each other, thereby ensuring that the first connecting structures 41 and the second connecting structures 42 can be smoothly connected.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, a first connecting structure 41 is disposed at each of four corners of the second surface of the supporting member 20, and fig. 4 is a schematic view illustrating a second connecting structure 42 disposed at each of four corners of the first surface of the middle frame 30, wherein when the connection is actually performed, the second surface of the supporting member 20 is disposed opposite to the first surface of the middle frame 30, and the first connecting structure 41 and the second connecting structure 42 are aligned and matched with each other to achieve the fixation. In some embodiments, the first connecting structure 41 may be configured as a screw hole, the second connecting structure 42 is configured as a nut, the first connecting structure 41 may also be configured as a concave structure having a slot, the second connecting structure may also be configured as a convex structure matching with the slot, or other connecting structures that can be fixed may also be used, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Taking the first connecting structure 41 as a screw hole and the second connecting structure 42 as a nut as an example, the depth of the screw hole formed on one side of the supporting member 20 is 1/2 of the thickness of the supporting member, that is, the connecting effect between the supporting member and the nut is ensured as much as possible without affecting the strength of the supporting member 20; the nut disposed on one side of the middle frame 30 needs to ensure that the height of the protrusion is greater than 1/2 of the thickness of the supporting member 20, compared with the first surface of the middle frame 30, so that after the nut is fixed with the screw hole, a gap is formed between the supporting member 20 and the middle frame 30, and the purpose of utilizing air in the gap to insulate heat is achieved.
When the middle frame 30 is actually arranged, the middle frame 30 can be made of metal materials, so that the middle frame has good supporting strength and good heat dissipation performance. In the actual use process of the display device, the second surface of the middle frame 30 (i.e. the surface opposite to the first surface of the middle frame, the top surface of the middle frame 30 in fig. 4) is further provided with a groove 31 for accommodating the back bending region 50 connected to the display panel 10, as shown in fig. 5, the size (e.g. the groove width a) of the groove 31 may be the same as the size of the current back bending region 50. The back bending area 50 is generally used for arranging a driver IC of the display panel 10, and is connected with the display panel 10 through a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC), and the FPC is placed at the bottom of the second surface of the middle frame 30 after being bent to reduce the width of a frame of the display device arranged around the display device, and the driver IC also needs to dissipate heat to ensure the working performance of the driver IC during working, so that after the back bending area 50 is connected with the middle frame 30 made of metal, the heat generated by the driver IC can be dissipated through the metal middle frame 30 with a larger area, and the heat dissipation effect of the display device is further improved. In addition, the display panel 10 can be connected to the middle frame 30 through a circuit board, which includes a back bending region 50 and is fixed on the second surface of the middle frame 30 through the back bending region 50, wherein the circuit board can be a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC), a Chip On Film (COF), or other flexible circuit boards.
In some embodiments, the connection between the back bending region 50 and the bottom of the groove 31 may also be made through a heat conductive silicone grease 51, as shown in fig. 6, the heat conductive silicone grease 51 is coated on the surface of the back bending region 50 contacting the middle frame 30, embedded in the groove 31 after being bent, and adhered to the bottom of the groove 31. By the arrangement of the heat conductive silicone grease 51, good heat transfer between the back bending region 50 and the middle frame 30 can be realized, so that high heat generated by the operation of the driver IC is transferred to the middle frame 30 through the heat conductive silicone grease 51, and efficient heat dissipation is performed by utilizing the excellent heat dissipation performance of the middle frame 30 and the gap between the middle frame 30 and the support member 20.
It should be noted that, when the groove 31 is actually opened, the depth d of the groove 31 may be set according to the thickness of the heat-conducting silicone grease 51 and the thickness of the back bending area 50, and the depth d of the groove 31 is usually set to the sum of the thickness of the heat-conducting silicone grease 51 and the thickness of the back bending area 50, so that the back bending area 50 is completely accommodated in the groove 31 after being bent, thereby ensuring that the second surface of the middle frame 30 is flat, and facilitating the later assembly with the whole machine.
According to the display panel heat dissipation device, the heat dissipation blind hole is formed in the surface, far away from the display panel, of the support piece, the specific surface of the support piece is increased, the heat dissipation performance of the support piece is improved in the same time, and the heat dissipation of the display panel is facilitated; meanwhile, the gap between the support piece and the middle frame is arranged through the connecting piece, the influence of the heat of the display panel on a back bending area is isolated, the phenomenon that the colloid drops is avoided, the integral efficient heat dissipation of the display device is realized, and the condition that the connection is poor or the service life of the display device is reduced is avoided.
The second embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display device, which may be a large-sized device with a display function, such as a notebook computer, a tablet computer, and a vehicle-mounted computer, and the device at least includes the display device provided in the first embodiment, and through the arrangement of the heat dissipation blind holes and the gaps of the support members in the display device, the heat dissipation performance of the display device is improved, the phenomenon that the colloid drops is avoided, the overall efficient heat dissipation of the display device is realized, the occurrence of the poor connection or the reduced service life of the display device is avoided, and the good service environment of the display device is ensured.
