Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is an electronic device including a display module and a camera module. The display module includes a first substrate and a second substrate stacked with each other, and a routing structure arranged on a surface of one side of the second substrate facing towards the first substrate, and provided with a first light-passing hole. The camera module includes a camera body and a light-shielding layer arranged on a surface of one side of the first substrate away from the second substrate and provided with a light inlet hole and a second light-passing hole. The first light-passing hole, the second light-passing hole, and the light inlet hole are arranged in an optical axis direction of the camera module. An orthographic projection of the first light-passing hole and the second light-passing hole on a surface perpendicular to the optical axis direction fall within an orthographic projection of the light inlet hole.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An electronic device, comprising: a display module, wherein the display module comprises a first substrate, a second substrate, and a routing structure, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate are stacked, the routing structure is arranged on a surface of one side of the second substrate facing towards the first substrate, and the routing structure is provided with a first light-passing hole formed as an opening through the routing structure; and a camera module, wherein the camera module comprises a camera body and a light-shielding layer, wherein the camera body is provided with a light inlet hole, the light inlet hole is arranged near a surface of the second substrate away from the first substrate, the second substrate is located between the first substrate and the camera body, the light-shielding layer is arranged on a surface of one side of the first substrate away from the second substrate, the light-shielding layer is provided with a second light-passing hole, wherein the first light-passing hole, the second light-passing hole, and the light inlet hole are arranged in an optical axis direction of the camera module, and orthographic projections of the first light-passing hole and the second light-passing hole on a surface perpendicular to the optical axis direction fall within an orthographic projection of the light inlet hole on the surface perpendicular to the optical axis direction. 2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the display module further comprises a polarizer, wherein the polarizer is arranged on a surface of one side of the first substrate away from the second substrate, and at least one part of the light-shielding layer is located between the first substrate and the polarizer. 3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the display module further comprises a polarizer, wherein the polarizer is arranged on a surface of one side of the first substrate away from the second substrate, the polarizer is provided with a third light-passing hole, and the light-shielding layer is located in the third light-passing hole. 4. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein the light-shielding layer is in contact with an inner wall of the third light-passing hole. 5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the orthographic projection of the first light-passing hole on the surface perpendicular to the optical axis coincides with the orthographic projection of the second light-passing hole on the surface perpendicular to the optical axis. 6. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the routing structure and the light-shielding layer have ring-shaped structures, and a radial width of the light-shielding layer is less than a radial width of the routing structure. 7. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a distance between a focus of the camera body and the light-shielding layer in the optical axis direction is a preset value. 8. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the light-shielding layer has a film-coating structure.
