Fig. 1 is the explosion schematic diagram of mobile phone of the utility model embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1, mobile phone comprises camera 1, sealing ring 2, the display panel 3 and touch screen 4 of getting through hole; Wherein,

The through hole of the display panel 3 is a passage for visible light rays to enter the camera 1, that is, the through hole is a viewfinder hole. Since the viewfinder hole is only used for camera lens viewfinder, the diameter can be made relatively small, such as 2-3mm , with almost no loss in display area.

Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the layout of the conductive lines of the control pixels in the display panel in Fig. 1 when no holes are opened. As shown in Fig. 2, when the display panel is not opened, a plurality of control pixels are arranged near the through holes The conductive wires in the horizontal direction are h1, h2, h3, h4, referred to as row lines, and the vertical directions are v1, v2, v3, v4, referred to as column lines; the row and column lines are only connected at the intersection, and the intersection is the display The pixels of the panel are all in different insulating layers; if a viewfinder hole is opened in the display panel, the row and column lines will be disconnected, and the screen cannot be turned on. In order to avoid disconnection of row and column lines, three schemes are adopted in the embodiment of the utility model.

Option 1 is shown in Figure 3, where the row and column lines are routed along the edge of the viewfinder hole. According to the structure of the display panel, the row and column lines are in different insulation layers, so the intersection of the row and column lines in the figure will not cause a short circuit.

The second scheme is shown in Figure 4. When the row and column lines are printed on the display panel, an insulating layer is added. The row and column lines pass through the insulating layer by means of via holes, and are routed on another layer. The black dots in the figure indicate conductive vias through the insulating layer, and the black squares indicate pixels. The insulating layer around the black squares is separated from the pixels by a preset distance, that is, the white box part, so that the pixels are not affected by the insulating layer. Impact.

The third scheme is shown in Figure 5. When printing the row and column lines on the display panel, an extension line is printed on the broken section of the row and column lines. The extension lines are capital letters H2, H3, V2 and V3. The wires are routed from the edge of the display panel, and at the preset position of the display panel, for example, the other end of the display panel (the end of the interface between the row and column lines and the display driver chip), connect the corresponding row and column lines, for example, h2 Connected to H2, h3 connected to H3, v2 connected to V2, v3 connected to V3.

It can be understood that the above three solutions can also be combined, and the problem of disconnection of row and column lines can also be avoided. There may also be other similar bypass solutions, which will not be described in detail.

Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of a screen with a viewfinder hole in a mobile phone according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 6, the screen 62 with a viewfinder hole 61 is a "full screen" and is a complete rectangular display panel In terms of visual effect, it is more beautiful than the screen 72 with U-shaped notch 71 in Figure 7, that is, the special-shaped screen is more beautiful, because the viewfinder hole 61 is only used for camera lens viewfinder, and the diameter can be made relatively small, such as 2-3mm, The display area of the screen 62 is hardly lost. Compared with the screen 72, the advantage of the screen ratio of the mobile phone is very obvious.

Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the top status bar when the screen of the mobile phone according to the embodiment of the present invention is lit, and Figure 9 is an enlarged schematic diagram of the top in Figure 7, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the viewfinder hole of the mobile phone camera is located on the mobile phone display interface The position of the status bar at the top of the center, and a circular icon is set on the viewfinder hole, so that the viewfinder hole and the display interface of the mobile phone are integrated without affecting the display interface of the mobile phone at all, and the visual effect is perfect.

Moreover, the circular icon on the viewfinder hole may be an icon of a camera, which is used to start or turn off the camera, and can be started or turned off conveniently without setting an additional application (APP, Application) icon.

It can be understood that the icon of the camera may also be other icons, such as an infrared emitter. Because the display screen can change the image at any time, icons and status indications corresponding to the sensor status behind the small hole can be designed around the small hole of the display screen to form real-time dynamic information feedback of the sensor. For example, there is an infrared emitter behind the small hole. At this time, the pattern around the small hole can be represented by rays of light, and the density or length of the rays of light is proportional to the intensity of the infrared emitted light, thus becoming the "real-time status indication sensor" of the infrared emitter. ".

In order to better understand the screen and the camera in the mobile phone of the embodiment of the utility model, the assembly steps of the screen and the camera will be introduced below:

Step 801: Make a touch screen component. Assemble the protective glass and touch screen into a touch screen component;

Step 802: Print conductive lines. That is, the conductive lines for controlling the pixels are printed on the liquid crystal panel to form a display panel, wherein the conductive lines around the viewfinder hole bypass the viewfinder hole;

Step 803: Opening a viewfinder hole. A camera viewing hole is opened on the display panel, and its position corresponds to the placement position of the camera;

Step 804: Assemble the mobile phone screen. Bond the touch screen and the display panel to form the screen of the mobile phone;

Step 805: Install the sealing ring. Attach the sealing ring on the camera, and the center of the sealing ring coincides with the center of the camera lens;

Step 806: Assembling the camera and the screen. Combining the camera with the mobile phone screen, the center of the camera lens coincides with the center of the small hole on the display panel, so that the camera can take pictures through the small hole on the display panel.

In this way, the assembly of the display panel and the front camera is completed. The utility model directly arranges a viewfinder hole on the display panel. The diameter of the viewfinder hole is relatively small, and there is almost no loss in the display area. Compared with the notched screen, the screen-to-body ratio of the mobile phone is very obvious. It can improve the aesthetics of the mobile phone without affecting the user experience.
