Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A display module including upper case, front case, blocking ribs, image-capturing opening, and blocking component is provided. The front case connects the upper case. The holding ribs are from on inner side of the upper case, and a guiding area is remained between the front case and the ribs. The image-capturing opening is formed on the front case. The blocking component is disposed on the inner side of the upper case and the front case. The blocking component has guiding part and blocking part. The guiding part is located on the guiding area. The guiding part has protrusions and compressible openings being adjacent to the ribs. Each of the compressible openings is corresponded to one of the protrusions. The protrusions exceed the guiding area. The blocking component is adjacent to the inner side of the front case and the image-capturing opening.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A display module, comprising: an upper case; a front case connecting the upper case; a plurality of holding ribs formed in an interior of the upper case, wherein a guiding area is remained between the front case and the holding ribs; an image-capturing opening being formed in the front case; and a blocking component being disposed inside the upper case and the front case, wherein the blocking component comprises: a guiding part being located in the guiding area, and the guiding part has a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of compressible openings which are adjacent to the holding ribs, and the compressible openings are corresponded to the protrusions respectively, and the protrusions exceed the guiding space; and a blocking part connecting the guiding part, and the blocking part is close to an interior of the front case and the image-capturing opening. 2. The display module of claim 1 further comprising a first long-narrow opening being formed in the upper case, wherein the first long-narrow opening extends along a first direction, and the guiding part has a holding piece, and the guiding part extends along the first direction, and the guiding part is adjacent to the first long-narrow opening, and the holding piece passes through the first long-narrow opening. 3. The display module of claim 1 further comprising a plurality of first guiding ribs formed on the interior of the front case, wherein the image-capturing opening is formed between the first guiding ribs, and the blocking part has a plurality of guiding trenches, and the guiding trenches are facing towards the first guiding ribs, and the guiding trenches and the first guiding ribs are extended along a first direction, and the guiding trenches are corresponded to the first guiding ribs respectively. 4. The display module of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of holding ribs includes a first holding rib and a second holding rib, and the first holding rib and the second holding rib are extended along a second direction, and a first distance is remained between the first holding rib and the second holding rib in a first direction, and the plurality of protrusions includes a first protrusion and a second protrusion, and a second distance is remained between the first protrusion and the second protrusion in the first direction, and the second distance is shorter than the first distance. 5. The display module of claim 4 , wherein the first protrusion has a first long edge and a first short edge, and the second protrusion has a second long edge and a second short edge, and the first short edge is facing towards the second short edge. 6. The display module of claim 4 , wherein the plurality of compressible openings include a first compressible opening and a second compressible opening, and the first compressible opening and the second compressible opening are extended along a first direction, and the first compressible opening is adjacent to the first protrusion, and the second compressible opening is adjacent to the second protrusion. 7. The display module of claim 1 further including a second guiding rib formed in the interior of the front case, wherein the second guiding rib is extended along a first direction, and the blocking part is located between the second guiding rib and the upper case, and an edge of the blocking part which is adjacent to the second guiding rib is parallel to the first direction. 8. The display module of claim 7 , wherein the blocking part has a plurality of contacting protrusions, and the contacting protrusions are located on an edge of the blocking part which is adjacent to the second guiding rib. 9. The display module of claim 1 , wherein the blocking part has a blocking plane, and the blocking plane is located at a side of the blocking part which is adjacent to the front case, and an area of the blocking plane is larger than an area of the image-capturing opening. 10. The display module of claim 1 , wherein the holding ribs are extended along a second direction, and the protrusions are located between the compressible openings and the holding ribs in the second direction.
