Abstract

The disclosure discloses a display panel and a display device, and the display panel includes: a substrate; a display area, including a plurality of signal lines on a first side of the substrate; a bending area, including a plurality of connection lines on a second side of the substrate; and a wiring area, including a plurality of lead wires for transmitting display signals on a third side of the substrate; where the plurality of connection lines electrically connects the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of lead wires; the bending area includes fourth sides of the substrate; and the second side of the substrate is intersected with the fourth sides of the substrate; where the fourth sides of the substrate includes at least one transitional side, and the at least one transitional side is concaved toward the connection lines of the bending area.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A display panel, comprising:
a substrate;
a display area, comprising a plurality of signal lines on a first side of the substrate;
a bending area, comprising a plurality of connection lines on a second side of the substrate; and
a wiring area, comprising a plurality of lead wires for transmitting display signals on a third side of the substrate;
wherein the plurality of connection lines electrically connects the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of lead wires;
the bending area comprises fourth sides of the substrate; and
the second side of the substrate is intersected with the fourth sides of the substrate;
wherein the fourth sides of the substrate comprises at least one transitional side, and the at least one transitional side is concaved toward the connection lines of the bending area;
the second side of the substrate is a curved shape, and each of the connection lines and the second side of the substrate have a same curved shape; and
distances between one of the connection lines and at least two positions on the transitional side are different.

2. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein both of two fourth sides of the substrate comprise transitional sides.

3. The display panel according to claim 2 , wherein the two fourth sides of the bending area are symmetric about a first central axis of the bending area.

4. The display panel according to claim 2 , wherein the two fourth sides of the bending area are arc surfaces or sides consisted of arc surfaces and flat surfaces.

5. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the display panel is a flexible display panel.

6. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein distances from the first central axis to part of the transitional side are gradually larger or smaller.

7. The display panel according to claim 2 , wherein each of the two fourth sides of the substrate comprises a transitional side and a plat side.

8. The display panel according to claim 7 , wherein a distance from at least one position of the transitional side to a target line of the bending area are larger than a distance from a position of the plat side to the target line of the bending area.

9. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein each of the connection lines is a hollowed-out line.

10. The display panel according to claim 2 , wherein one of the connection lines is a data signal line or a supply voltage line; and
each data signal line is arranged on a side, away from the two fourth sides, of the supply voltage line.

11. A display device, comprising a display panel; wherein the display panel comprises:
a substrate;
a display area, comprising a plurality of signal lines on a first side of the substrate;
a bending area, comprising a plurality of connection lines on a second side of the substrate; and
a wiring area, comprising a plurality of lead wires for transmitting display signals on a third side of the substrate;
wherein the plurality of connection lines electrically connects the plurality of signal lines and the plurality of lead wires;
the bending area comprises fourth sides of the substrate; and
the second side of the substrate is intersected with the fourth sides of the substrate;
wherein the fourth sides of the substrate comprises at least one transitional side, and the at least one transitional side is concaved toward the connection lines of the bending area;
the second side of the substrate is a curved shape, and each of the connection lines and the second side of the substrate have a same curved shape; and
distances between one of the connection lines and at least two positions on the transitional side are different.

12. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein both of two fourth sides of the substrate comprise transitional sides.

13. The display device according to claim 12 , wherein the two fourth sides of the bending area are symmetric about a first central axis of the bending area.

14. The display device according to claim 12 , wherein the two fourth sides of the bending area are arc surfaces or sides consisted of arc surfaces and flat surfaces.

15. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein the display panel is a flexible display panel.

16. The display device according to claim 13 , wherein distances from the first central axis to part of the transitional side are gradually larger or smaller.

17. The display device according to claim 12 , wherein each of the two fourth sides of the substrate comprises a transitional side and a plat side.

18. The display device according to claim 17 , wherein a distance from at least one position of the transitional side to a target line of the bending area are larger than a distance from a position of the plat side to the target line of the bending area.

19. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein each of the connection lines is a hollowed-out line.

20. The display device according to claim 12 , wherein one of the connection lines is a data signal line or a supply voltage line; and
