技术领域technical field

本发明是有关于一种弧形液晶显示面板(camberedl iquid crystal display panel),且特别是有关于一种与对向基板间具有不同间距或不同分布密度的间隙物(photo-spacer)的弧形液晶显示面板。The present invention relates to a cambered liquid crystal display panel (cambered liquid crystal display panel), and in particular to a curved photo-spacer with different distances or different distribution densities from the opposite substrate. LCD panel.

背景技术Background technique

一般而言,应用于液晶显示器的液晶显示面板是由主动阵列基板、彩色滤光基板以及配置于前述两基板间的液晶层所构成,且通常是利用框胶(sealant)将两基板粘着,以将液晶封存于两基板之间。为了维持两基板间的液晶间距(cell gap),通常会先在主动阵列基板或彩色滤光基板上形成间隙物(photo-spacer),再将主动阵列基板与彩色滤光基板组立并注入液晶,以形成液晶显示面板。为了确保液晶显示器的显示质量,液晶间距的维持是非常重要的议题,若液晶间距的均一性(uniformity)维持不当会造成显示不均匀(display mura)的现象。Generally speaking, a liquid crystal display panel applied to a liquid crystal display is composed of an active matrix substrate, a color filter substrate, and a liquid crystal layer arranged between the two substrates, and the two substrates are usually adhered by a sealant to The liquid crystal is sealed between the two substrates. In order to maintain the liquid crystal gap (cell gap) between the two substrates, a photo-spacer is usually formed on the active array substrate or the color filter substrate, and then the active array substrate and the color filter substrate are assembled and injected into the liquid crystal. , to form a liquid crystal display panel. In order to ensure the display quality of the liquid crystal display, the maintenance of the liquid crystal spacing is a very important issue. If the uniformity of the liquid crystal spacing is not properly maintained, it will cause display unevenness (display mura).

近年来,已有许多弧形液晶显示面板被应用于具有弧形外观的电器产品上,而在弧形液晶显示面板中,液晶间距的变化更是关注的焦点之一。In recent years, many curved liquid crystal display panels have been applied to electrical products with a curved appearance, and in the curved liquid crystal display panels, the change of the distance between liquid crystals is one of the focuses of attention.

图1为现有技术的弧形液晶显示面板的剖面示意图,请参照图1,现有技术的弧形液晶显示面板100是由第一基板110、第二基板120、框胶(未示出)以及液晶层130所构成。其中,较靠近弧型顶端A的液晶间距Gc小于远离弧型顶端A的液晶间距Gs,因此液晶层130中的液晶分子会被推挤到远离弧型顶端A的两侧,造成液晶分布不均匀而产生显示不均的现象,进而影响液晶面板的显示质量。因此,如何克服或改善上述问题,为目前弧形液晶显示面板在生产技术上亟待克 服的课题。FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a curved liquid crystal display panel in the prior art. Please refer to FIG. and the liquid crystal layer 130. Wherein, the liquid crystal spacing Gc closer to the arc top A is smaller than the liquid crystal spacing Gs away from the arc top A, so the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 130 will be pushed to the two sides away from the arc top A, resulting in uneven liquid crystal distribution. As a result, display unevenness occurs, thereby affecting the display quality of the liquid crystal panel. Therefore, how to overcome or improve the above-mentioned problems is a problem to be overcome urgently in the production technology of current curved liquid crystal display panels.

Figure 2B is a perspective view of Figure 2A. FIG. 2C is a schematic view of FIG. 2A after being bent. Please refer to FIG. 2A , FIG. 2B , and FIG. 2D first. The curved liquid crystal display panel 200 includes a first substrate 210 , a second substrate 220 , a sealant 230 , a plurality of spacers 240 and a liquid crystal layer 250 . In detail, one or more layers of thin film deposits, such as insulating layers, protrusions, metal layers or alignment layers, can be disposed on the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220 respectively, but are not limited thereto. For example, the first substrate 210 of this embodiment is a transistor array substrate, which includes a glass substrate, a transistor array layer, a flat layer, a shared electrode layer, protrusions and/or an alignment layer.

COA substrate). In addition, the present invention does not limit the material of the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220, for example, the material of the substrate can be glass, quartz, polyester, polycarbonate or other suitable materials .

承上所述,在弧形液晶显示面板200中,框胶230配置于第一基板210与第二基板220之间,其中第一基板210、第二基板220与框胶230被弯曲成至少一弧形结构,如图2B所示。此外,本实施例的第一基板210具有一对第一长边210a以及一对第一短边210b,而第二基板220也具有一对第二长边220a以及一对第二短边 220b。特别是,第一长边210a相对于第二长边220a配置,第一短边210b相对于第二短边220b配置,如图2A所示。As mentioned above, in the curved liquid crystal display panel 200, the sealant 230 is arranged between the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220, wherein the first substrate 210, the second substrate 220 and the sealant 230 are bent into at least one Arc-shaped structure, as shown in Figure 2B. In addition, the first substrate 210 of this embodiment has a pair of first long sides 210a and a pair of first short sides 210b, and the second substrate 220 also has a pair of second long sides 220a and a pair of second short sides 220b. In particular, the first long side 210a is arranged relative to the second long side 220a, and the first short side 210b is arranged relative to the second short side 220b, as shown in FIG. 2A.

将弧形液晶显示面板200弯曲后,第一长边210a以及第二长边220a为弧形,第一短边210b以及第二短边220b为直线形,如图2C所示。即第一基板210与第二基板220是沿着长边方向被弯曲的。在其它可能的实施例中,将弧形液晶显示面板200弯曲后,第一长边210a以及第二长边220a为直线形,第一短边210b以及第二短边220b为弧形。即第一基板210与第二基板220是沿着短边方向被弯曲的。After the curved liquid crystal display panel 200 is bent, the first long side 210a and the second long side 220a are curved, and the first short side 210b and the second short side 220b are straight, as shown in FIG. 2C . That is, the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220 are bent along the lengthwise direction. In other possible embodiments, after the curved liquid crystal display panel 200 is bent, the first long side 210 a and the second long side 220 a are linear, and the first short side 210 b and the second short side 220 b are curved. That is, the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220 are bent along the short side direction.

在本实施例中,当第一基板210、第二基板220与框胶230被弯曲成一弧形结构时,弧形结构的顶端A是位于面板的中心线C上。即弯曲后弧形结构的顶端A是位于结构的正中央。In this embodiment, when the first substrate 210 , the second substrate 220 and the sealant 230 are bent into an arc structure, the top A of the arc structure is located on the center line C of the panel. That is, the top A of the arc-shaped structure after bending is located in the very center of the structure.

图2D是图2A部分放大示意图。图2E是图2D被弯曲后的示意图。请参照图2D,承上所述,间隙物240配置于第一基板210上,且分布于第一基板210与第二基板220之间。需说明的是,本实施例中第一基板210是位于第二基板220之下,而第一基板210上的间隙物240是由下往上的方向延伸。在其它可能的实施例中,第一基板210可以位于第二基板220之上,而第一基板210上的间隙物240是由上往下的方向延伸。FIG. 2D is a partially enlarged schematic view of FIG. 2A . FIG. 2E is a schematic view of FIG. 2D after being bent. Referring to FIG. 2D , following the above, the spacers 240 are disposed on the first substrate 210 and distributed between the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220 . It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first substrate 210 is located under the second substrate 220 , and the spacers 240 on the first substrate 210 extend from bottom to top. In other possible embodiments, the first substrate 210 may be located on the second substrate 220 , and the spacers 240 on the first substrate 210 extend from top to bottom.

承上所述,较接近弧形结构的顶端A的部分间隙物240a与第二基板220的间距G1较小,较远离弧形结构的顶端A的部分间隙物240b、240c与第二基板220的间距G2、G3较大,如图2D所示。Based on the above, the distance G1 between the part of the spacers 240a closer to the top A of the arc-shaped structure and the second substrate 220 is smaller, and the distance G1 between the parts of the spacers 240b, 240c farther from the top A of the arc-shaped structure and the second substrate 220 is smaller. The distances G2 and G3 are relatively large, as shown in FIG. 2D.

当将弧形液晶显示面板200弯曲后,由于接近弧形结构的顶端A的部分间隙物240a与第二基板220的间距G1较小,故能首先对抗弧形结构的顶端A附近的区域的液晶间距改变,进而维持弧形液晶显示面板200的液晶间距为一致,如图2E所示。再次强调,此处第一间隙物240a与第二基板220的间距G1是指液晶间距,即间隙物240a与第二基板220中可以容置液晶分子的空间。此外,值得一提的是,这些高度不同的间隙物240例如是以半调式掩膜(half-tone mask)工艺来制作的。When the curved liquid crystal display panel 200 is bent, since the distance G1 between the part of the spacer 240a close to the top A of the curved structure and the second substrate 220 is small, it can first resist the liquid crystal in the area near the top A of the curved structure. The pitch is changed to keep the liquid crystal pitch of the curved liquid crystal display panel 200 consistent, as shown in FIG. 2E . It is emphasized again that the distance G1 between the first spacer 240 a and the second substrate 220 refers to the liquid crystal distance, that is, the space between the spacer 240 a and the second substrate 220 that can accommodate liquid crystal molecules. In addition, it is worth mentioning that these spacers 240 with different heights are fabricated by a half-tone mask process, for example.

在本实施例中,第一基板210具有对应于弧形结构的顶端A的第一区域S1以及一个或多个位于第一区域S1的一侧的第二区域S2,而间隙物240包括多个第一间隙物240a以及多个第二间隙物240b。其中第一间隙物240a配置于第一区域S1内,且各第一间隙物240a与第二基板220的间距为G1。第二间隙物240b配置于第二区域S2内,而各第二间隙物240b与第二基板220的间距为G2,且G1<G2。再次强调,此处第一间隙物240a、第二间隙物240b与第二基板220的间距G1、G2是指液晶间距,即第一间隙物240a、第二间隙物240b与第二基板220间可以容置液晶分子的空间。In this embodiment, the first substrate 210 has a first region S1 corresponding to the top A of the arc structure and one or more second regions S2 located on one side of the first region S1, and the spacer 240 includes a plurality of The first spacer 240a and a plurality of second spacers 240b. The first spacers 240a are disposed in the first region S1, and the distance between each first spacer 240a and the second substrate 220 is G1. The second spacers 240b are disposed in the second region S2, and the distance between each second spacer 240b and the second substrate 220 is G2, and G1<G2.

图3为本发明另一实施例的弧形液晶显示面板的俯视图。请参照图3与图2D,本实施例的弧形液晶显示面板300与弧形液晶显示面板200类似,两者主要差异之处在于:本实施例的弧形液晶显示面板300中,较接近弧形结构的顶端A的部分的间隙物340其分布密度较大,而较远离弧形结构顶端A的部分的间隙物340其分布密度较小。具体地讲,在本实施例中,位于第一区域S1的多个第一间隙物340a的分布密度为D1,配置于第二区域S2内的第二间隙物340b的分布密度为D2,且|D1/D2|介于1.125至20之间,其中,|D1/D2|又以介于4至12之间为较佳。FIG. 3 is a top view of a curved liquid crystal display panel according to another embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 2D. The curved liquid crystal display panel 300 of this embodiment is similar to the curved liquid crystal display panel 200. The main difference between the two is that in the curved liquid crystal display panel 300 of this embodiment, the The distribution density of the spacers 340 at the top A of the arc-shaped structure is higher, while the distribution density of the spacers 340 at the part farther from the top A of the arc-shaped structure is smaller. Specifically, in this embodiment, the distribution density of the plurality of first spacers 340a located in the first region S1 is D1, the distribution density of the second spacers 340b disposed in the second region S2 is D2, and | D1/D2| is between 1.125 and 20, and |D1/D2| is preferably between 4 and 12.

值得一提的是,当第二区域S2的数量为多个时,较靠近第一区域S1的第二区域S2中,其第二间隙物340b的分布密度D2较大;反之,较远离第一区域S1的第二区域S2中,其第二间隙物340b的分布密度D2较小。It is worth mentioning that when there are multiple second regions S2, the distribution density D2 of the second spacers 340b in the second region S2 closer to the first region S1 is larger; In the second region S2 of the region S1, the distribution density D2 of the second spacers 340b is relatively small.

在本实施例中,多个配置于第三区域S3内的第三间隙物340c的分布密度为D3,且D1>D3。此外,|D1/D3|介于1.125至20之间,其中,|D1/D3|又以介于4至12之间为较佳。当第三区域S3的数量为多个时,较靠近第一区域S1的第三区域S3中,其第三间隙物340c的分布密度D3较大;反之,较远离第一区域S1的第三区域S3中,其第三间隙物340c的分布密度D3较小。In this embodiment, the distribution density of the plurality of third spacers 340c disposed in the third area S3 is D3, and D1>D3. In addition, |D1/D3| is between 1.125 and 20, wherein |D1/D3| is preferably between 4 and 12. When there are multiple third regions S3, the third region S3 closer to the first region S1 has a higher distribution density D3 of the third spacers 340c; on the contrary, the third region farther away from the first region S1 In S3, the distribution density D3 of the third spacers 340c is relatively small.

当弧形液晶显示面板300被弯曲成至少一弧形结构时,由于接近弧形结构顶端A的部分间隙物340的密度较大,故能首先对抗弧形结构顶端A附近的区域的液晶间距改变,进而维持弧形液晶显示面板300的液晶间距为一致。When the curved liquid crystal display panel 300 is bent into at least one curved structure, due to the higher density of the spacers 340 near the top A of the curved structure, it can firstly resist the change of the liquid crystal spacing in the area near the top A of the curved structure. , and further maintain the liquid crystal spacing of the curved liquid crystal display panel 300 to be consistent.

综上所述,本发明通过调控间隙物与对向基板间的距离或分布密度,将靠近弧形结构顶端区域的部分的间隙物与对向基板间的距离调整的比远离弧形顶端的区域小,或将分布密度调整的比远离弧形顶端的区域高,以保持弧形液晶显示面板的液晶间距。此外,本发明并不限制弧形结构的弯折型态与顶端数量,故本发明的弧形液晶显示面板可更容易被利用至不同形状的终端应用产品之中。To sum up, the present invention adjusts the distance between the spacers near the top of the arc-shaped structure and the opposite substrate by adjusting the distance or distribution density between the spacers and the opposing substrate than the area farther away from the arc-shaped top. Small, or the distribution density is adjusted to be higher than the area away from the top of the arc, so as to maintain the liquid crystal spacing of the arc liquid crystal display panel. In addition, the present invention does not limit the bending pattern and the number of tops of the curved structure, so the curved liquid crystal display panel of the present invention can be more easily applied to terminal application products of different shapes.
