Display module having support structure for display panel
First Claim
1. A display module, comprising:
- a display panel, including;
a first substrate; and
a second substrate overlapping the first substrate, wherein the first substrate extends beyond the second substrate at a first side; and
a backlight module disposed under the display panel, the backlight module including a light guide plate and having a support unit disposed along the first side, an end portion of the light guide plate parallel to the first side being clamped by the support unit;
wherein the support unit has a first tier portion and a second tier portion, the second tier portion is lifted from the first tier portion toward the display panel and supports the display panel, a projection region of a portion of the display panel substantially supported by the second tier portion on the first substrate covers an edge of the second substrate at the first side and extends to an overlapping area of the first substrate and the second substrate;
wherein the backlight module includes a connection piece disposed between the second tier portion and the display panel.

Abstract
A display module includes a display panel and a backlight module. The display panel has overlapped first and second substrates, wherein the first substrate extends beyond the second substrate at a first side. The backlight module is disposed on one side of the display module opposite to the display surface and includes a support unit disposed along the first side. The support unit has a first tier portion and a second tier portion, which is lifted toward the display panel with respect to the first tier portion and supports the display panel. A projection region of the display panel supported by the second tier portion on the first substrate covers or overlaps the edge of the second substrate at the first side and extends to an overlapping area of the first substrate and the second substrate.
