[0001] The present application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/CN2022/113503, filed on Aug. 19, 2022, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202111655833.8, filed with China National Intellectual Property Administration on Dec. 30, 2021, entitled “Flexible Display Module and Flexible Display Device”. The aforementioned patent applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.

[0002] Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of display, in particular to a flexible display module and a flexible display device.

[0003] With continuous development of display technology, people put forward higher requirements for the flexible display module, requiring the size of the display screen of the flexible display module to be adjustable. The flexible display module usually includes a reel and a flexible display panel, one end of the flexible display panel is connected with the reel, and the flexible display panel is rolled up or unfolded when the reel is rotated, so that the display screen of the flexible display panel can be adjusted.

[0004] However, the flexible display panel is prone to producing cracks or the film layers in the flexible display panel are separated from each other when the flexible display panel is rolled up by the reel, thereby affecting the display effect of the flexible display module.

[0005] In view of the above problem, embodiment of the present application provides a flexible display module to solve the technical problem that the flexible display panel is prone to producing cracks or the film layers in the flexible display panel are separated from each other when the reel rolls up the flexible display module.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the embodiments of the present application provide the following technical solutions.

[0007] A first aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a flexible display module, including a reel and a flexible display panel, where the reel is magnetic, and the flexible display panel can be rolled up onto the reel; the flexible display panel includes a magnetic attraction part, which is configured to be attracted by the reel when the flexible display panel is rolled up onto the reel.

[0008] In the flexible display module provided by the embodiments of the present application, since the flexible display panel includes a magnetic attraction part, when the flexible display panel is rolled up onto the reel that is magnetic, the magnetic attraction part is attracted by the reel, so that the flexible display panel can fit with the reel in a process of rolling up, reducing a spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels, which enables each circle of flexible display panel to be supported In this way, a stress concentration due to sudden change in shape of each circle of flexible display panel can be avoided, preventing the flexible display panel from cracking and inner film layers of the flexible display panel from separation, and thus ensuring a display effect of the flexible display module.

[0009] At the same time, as the flexible display panel can fit with the reel in the process of rolling up, the spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels is reduced, thereby reducing a space occupied by the flexible display panel rolled up onto the reel, and improving utilization rate of space of the flexible display module.

[0010] A second aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a flexible display device, including any one of the flexible display modules described above.

[0011] The flexible display device of the embodiments of the present application embodiment also has the advantages of the flexible display module above as it includes the flexible display module, which will not be repeated here.

[0038] In a flexible display module, a flexible display panel has a technical problem of being prone to producing cracks or separation of film layers from each other in the flexible display panel when the flexible display panel is rolled up onto a reel. The inventor found through researches that the reason for this problem is that when the flexible display panel is rolled up onto the reel, there is a spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels, and each circle of flexible display panel has no support, which makes each circle of flexible display panel prone to appear sudden change in shape and generate stress concentration at a position of sudden change in shape, resulting in cracks or separation of the film layers from each other in the flexible display panel, thereby affecting the display effect of the flexible display module.

[0039] In view of the above technical problem, an embodiment of the present application provides a flexible display module where the reel is set to be magnetic, and a magnetic attraction part is arranged in the flexible display panel, and the magnetic attraction part is attracted by the reel when the flexible display panel is rolled up onto the reel, so that the flexible display panel can fit with the reel in a process of being rolled up, reducing the spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels, resulting in that each circle of flexible display panel has support. In this way, the stress concentration due to sudden change in shape of each circle of flexible display panel can be avoided, preventing the flexible display panel producing cracks and inner film layers of the flexible display panel from separation, and thereby ensuring the display effect of the flexible display module.

[0040] In order to make the above object, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more obvious and easy to be understood, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Referring to FIG. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a flexible display module including a reel 10 and a flexible display panel 20 that can be rolled up onto the reel 10. Exemplarily, one end of the flexible display panel 20 may be connected to an outer circumference of an electromagnetic reel 10. Part of the flexible display panel 20 is rolled up onto the electromagnetic reel 10, and the rest of the flexible display panel 20 is in an unfolded state.

[0041] When the reel 10 rotates forward, for example, when it rotates counterclockwise as shown in FIG. 1, the flexible display panel 20 is further rolled up onto the reel 10, increasing an area of the part of the flexible display panel 20 rolled up onto the reel 10 and reducing an area of the part of the flexible display panel 20 in the unfolded state. When the reel 10 rotates backward, for example, when the reel 10 rotates clockwise as shown in FIG. 1, the part of the flexible display panel 20 rolled up onto the reel 10 is gradually unfolded, reducing the area of the part of the flexible display panel 20 rolled up onto the reel 10 and increasing the area of the part of the flexible display panel 20 in the unfolded state.

[0042] Accordingly, the area of the part of the flexible display panel 20 rolled up onto the reel 10 can be adjusted by controlling a rotation direction of the reel 10, thereby adjusting the area of the part of the flexible display panel 20 in the unfolded state, so as to realize the adjustment of size of a display screen of the flexible display module.

[0043] The reel 10 is used for rolling up the flexible display panel 20, and the reel 10 is magnetic. Exemplarily, a material of the reel 10 may include materials with permanent magnetism, such as Al—Ni—Co-based permanent magnet alloys, Fe—Cr—Co-based permanent magnet alloys, permanent magnet ferrites and the like. Exemplarily, the reel 10 may also be an electromagnetic reel, the electromagnetic reel is magnetic when energized and is not magnetic when not energized. When the flexible display panel 20 is rolled up onto the electromagnetic reel, the electromagnetic reel is energized and magnetic, so as to provide a magnetic attraction force for the flexible display panel 20, so that the flexible display panel 20 is adsorbed onto the electromagnetic reel; when the flexible display panel 20 is unfolded, the electromagnetic reel is not energized and not magnetic, and the flexible display panel 20 does not have a magnetic attraction force, so that the flexible display panel 20 can be unfolded.

[0044] The flexible display panel 20 is used for displaying an image and has a flexible and bendable property and thus can be rolled up onto the reel 10. Referring to FIG. 2, the flexible display panel 20 may include a magnetic attraction part 30, the magnetic attraction part 30 is configured to be attracted by the reel 10 when the flexible display panel 20 is rolled up onto the reel 10, so that the flexible display panel 20 fits with the reel 10, thereby reducing the spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels 20, enabling each circle of flexible display panel 20 to have support. In this way, the stress concentration caused by sudden change in shape of each circle of flexible display panel can be avoided, preventing the flexible display panel 20 producing cracks and the inner film layers of the flexible display panel 20 from separation, and thus ensuring the display effect of the flexible display module.

[0045] At the same time, since the flexible display panel 20 can fit with the reel 10 in the process of being rolled up, reducing the spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels 20, thereby reducing the space occupied by the flexible display panel 20 rolled up onto the reel 10 and improving the utilization of space of the flexible display module.

[0046] Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 2, the flexible display panel 20 may include a first support layer 210, a second support layer 220, a substrate 230, an array film layer 240, a display film layer 250 and a packaging film layer 260 in a laminated arrangement.

[0047] The first support layer 210 is arranged on one side of the second support layer 220 facing away from the substrate 230. The first support layer 210 has a supporting effect on the second support layer 220 and the substrate 230, as well as other film layers above the substrate 230. Exemplarily, the first support layer 210 may be a sheet structure, and a material of the first support layer 210 may be stainless steel, titanium, or the like. The first support layer 210 has an ability of bending and does not affect bendable performance of the flexible display panel 20; meanwhile, the first support layer 210 additionally has high strength and stiffness to ensure the support and protection on other film layers of the flexible display panel 20.

[0048] The second support layer 220 may be arranged on and in contact with the first support layer 210, and the second support layer 220 has a supporting effect on other film layers of the flexible display panel 20 located on the second support layer 220. Exemplarily, the second support layer 220 may be a support film for providing supporting effect and additionally has a buffering capacity for absorbing external shock and vibration on the flexible display panel 20, to prevent the flexible display panel 20 from damage and play a role of protecting the flexible display panel 20.

[0049] The substrate 230 may be arranged on one side of the second support layer 220 away from the first support layer 210 and is configured to support other films of the flexible display panel 20 located on the substrate 230. Exemplarily, the substrate 230 may be a flexible substrate, such as polyimide (PI). The array film layer 240 is arranged on the substrate 230 and is configured to drive the display film layer 250 to emit light. Exemplarily, a drive circuit may be provided within the array film layer 240. The display film layer 250 is arranged on the array film layer 240 and is configured to display the image. Exemplarily, the display film layer 250 internally has a plurality of pixel units arranged in a matrix, each pixel unit is connected to the drive circuit within the array film layer 240, and the drive circuit can drive each pixel unit to emit light, thereby displaying the image. The packaging film layer 260 is arranged on the display film layer 250 to package the display film layer 250 so as to prevent for example water and oxygen from invading into the display film layer 250 and thus causing the failure of the display film layer 250.

[0050] Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 2, the flexible display panel 20 may further include a touch layer 270 and a cover layer 290 laminated on the packaging film layer 260. The touch layer 270 is used to control the function of the flexible display module. The cover layer 290 may be arranged above the touch layer 270 and is configured to protect the touch layer 270 and film layers below the touch layer 270.

[0051] The flexible display panel 20 further includes a polarizing layer 280 located between the packaging film layer 260 and the cover layer 290. Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 2, the polarizing layer 280 may be located between the touch layer 270 and the cover layer 290. In other embodiments, the polarizing layer 280 may be located between the packaging film layer 260 and the touch layer 270. The polarizing layer 280 is used to eliminate ambient light reflected by an electrode layer in the flexible display panel 20, thereby improving the display effect of the flexible display panel 20.

[0052] A magnetic attraction part 30 is arranged in the flexible display panel 20. Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 2, the magnetic attraction part 30 may include a fixing adhesive layer 310 and a magnetic powder 320, and the fixing adhesive layer 310 is arranged in the flexible display panel 220 to fix the magnetic powder 320. When the flexible display panel 20 is rolled up onto the reel 10 that is magnetic, the magnetic powder 320 in the magnetic attraction part 30 can be attracted to the reel 10 to enable the flexible display panel 20 to fit with the reel 10, reducing the spacing between each two adjacent circles of flexible display panels 20, so that each circle of flexible display panel 20 has support. In this way, the stress concentration caused by the sudden change of the shape of each circle of flexible display panel can be avoided, preventing the flexible display panel 20 from cracking and inner film layers of the flexible display panel 20 from separation, and ensuring the display effect of the flexible display module; at the same time, the space occupied by the flexible display panel 20 rolled up onto the reel 10 can be reduced, improving utilization of space of the flexible display module.

[0053] The magnetic powder 320 may be a powder of a magnetic material. Exemplarily, the magnetic powder 320 may be made of Fe, Co, Ni, Fe—Co—Ni alloy, or the like. Since the magnetic powder 320 is a powder and is easily deformed, it can not only be absorbed to the magnetic reel 10, but also does not affect the bending of the flexible display panel 20, facilitating the bending of the flexible display panel 20.

[0054] The fixing adhesive layer 310 of the magnetic attraction part 30 may be arranged in at least one film layer of the flexible display panel 20. Exemplarily, a receiving cavity may be arranged in the film layer, and the fixing adhesive layer 310 is located within the receiving cavity.

[0055] Exemplarily, the magnetic attraction part 30 may be arranged in at least one film layer located on one side of the array film layer 240 away from the display film layer 250. The receiving cavity may be a first receiving cavity or a second receiving cavity. For example, a first receiving cavity may be arranged in the film layer, and the fixing adhesive layer 310 is located within the first receiving cavity.

[0056] The following is taking the fixing adhesive layer 310 located within the first support layer 210 as an example, to describe a solution in which the fixing adhesive layer 310 may be arranged in at least one film layer located on the side of the array film layer 240 away from the display film layer 250.

[0057] Referring to FIG. 2, the first support layer 210 is provided with a first receiving cavity 211, and the magnetic powder 320 is located within the first receiving cavity 211.

Exemplarily, the plurality of first receiving holes 212 may be arranged in a matrix on the first support layer 210, or the plurality of first receiving holes 212 may be randomly arranged on the first support layer 210. Shapes of cross sections of the first receiving holes 212 in a direction parallel to the first support layer 210 may be circular, rectangular, triangular, or the like.

The first receiving groove 213 may extend along an axial direction of the reel 10, for example, the first receiving groove 213 may extend in z direction in FIG. 4. There may be a plurality of first receiving grooves 213, and the plurality of first receiving grooves 213 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The first receiving grooves 213 are used for accommodating the fixing adhesive layer 310, and can also reduce the stress when the first support layer 210 is bent, thereby facilitating the bending of the first support layer 210, so that the flexible display panel 20 can be rolled up onto the reel 10. At the same time, the first receiving grooves 213 also have a larger volume, which can increase a volume of the magnetic powder 320 that can be accommodated, thereby increasing an attraction force between the magnetic attraction part 30 and the reel 10, and thus further reducing the spacing between adjacent circles of flexible display panels 20.

[0059] Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 2, the fixing adhesive layer 310 may be provided with an accommodating cavity 313 and the magnetic powder 320 is located within the accommodating cavity 313. In some implementations of the embodiment of the present application, the fixing adhesive layer 310 may be filled in the first receiving cavity 211. Taking an orientation shown in FIG. 2 as an example, a top surface of the fixing adhesive layer 310 and a side wall of the first receiving cavity 211 enclose to form the accommodating cavity 313. The magnetic powder 320 is located on the top surface of the fixing adhesive layer 310, and a top surface of the magnetic powder 320 is not higher than the top surface of the first support layer 210.

Exemplarily, the first adhesive layer 311 is filled in the first receiving cavity 211. Taking an orientation shown in FIG. 5 as an example, the second adhesive layer 312 is located above the first adhesive layer 311 and is filled in the first receiving cavity 211. There is a spacing between a bottom surface of the second adhesive layer 312 and a top surface of the first adhesive layer 311, the spacing and a side wall of the first receiving cavity 211 enclose to form the accommodating cavity 313, and the magnetic powder 320 is located within the accommodating cavity 313. For example, the first adhesive layer 311 and the second adhesive layer 312 may be an optical adhesive or a pressure-sensitive adhesive or the like.

The first connecting adhesive layer 214 is used for connecting the first supporting layer 210 and the second supporting layer 220. Since the first connecting adhesive layer 214 and the second adhesive layer 312 are an integrated structure, when the first connecting adhesive layer 214 is formed, a fixing adhesive layer 310, for example, the second adhesive layer 312 of the fixing adhesive layer 310, can be formed at the same time, thereby reducing process steps of the flexible display panel 20 and improving the production efficiency of the flexible display panel 20.
