Each side panel 32 includes a side portion 321 and a bent connecting portion 322 located at one end of the side portion 321 . The connecting portion 322 and the top plate 31 are connected by an inclined surface 323 . The transparent panel 30 is installed on the main body 10, the display module 20 is located between the transparent panel 20 and the main body 10, the top plate 31 is opposite to the display area 21, and the connecting part 32 is connected to the non-display area. 22, the edge of the slope 323 near the display module side is aligned with the boundary between the display area 21 and the non-display area 22, and the slope 323 is orthographically projected on the non-display area 22.

In this embodiment, the body 10 includes electronic components such as an electronic device casing and a circuit board, and the casing carries all electronic components of the electronic device, a battery, the display module 20 and the transparent panel 30 . There is also a backlight module directly below the display module 20 , and the display module 20 and the backlight module constitute a screen display of the electronic device. The display area 21 is an area where the display module 20 can effectively display image information, and the non-display area 22 . As an area where the display module 20 cannot display image information, usually the non-display area 22 is used for circuit connection, or is provided with a backlight, etc., and is provided with an ink area to cover. The non-display area in this embodiment refers to the ink area. When the display screen 10 is powered off, the display area 21 appears black. The display module 20 may be an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display, liquid crystal display) liquid crystal screen, or an LCM (LCD Module, liquid crystal display module) component. The display module 20 can especially be a widely used touch screen. For example, the display module 20 can be an in-cell touch screen with a touch layer embedded in liquid crystal pixels, or a touch layer arranged on a liquid crystal. The on-cell touch screen on the pixel can also be a fully laminated touch screen in which the touch layer is fully bonded to the cover.

In this embodiment, the transparent panel 30 can enhance the light transmittance of the display module 20 and enhance the visual effect of the screen of the electronic device. In addition, the transparent panel 30 is a transparent hard plate, so as to provide good protection for the internal parts of the terminal and achieve good light transmission. The thickness of the transparent panel 30 is 0.3-2.0 mm, so that the transparent panel 30 can ensure that the screen of the electronic device has sufficient strength, and at the same time make the thickness of the electronic device thinner, further satisfying the requirement for The extreme thinness of the terminal is required.

In this embodiment, the transparent panel is a transparent glass plate, and the top plate 31 and the side plate 32 are formed by two-shot in-mold. The top plate 31 is a rectangular flat plate. The top plate 31 is mainly used to cover and protect the display area 21 of the display module.
