wherein the retaining wall comprises a plurality of retaining wall sidewalls on different sides of the accommodating space, respectively, and at least one of the plurality of retaining wall sidewalls is provided thereon with the insert and comprises at least one notch portion opposite to the insert thereon; and
the side frame comprises a plurality of back plate sidewalls on different sides of the accommodating space, respectively; at least one of the plurality of back plate sidewalls comprises a first sub-sidewall and a second sub-sidewall connected to each other, the first sub-sidewall is opposite to a corresponding retaining wall sidewall, the second sub-sidewall is opposite to the insert, and at least a portion of the second sub-sidewall is in the notch portion.

2. The display module according to claim 1 , wherein a surface of the first sub-sidewall facing the accommodating space and a surface of the second sub-sidewall facing the accommodating space are on two planes, respectively; and the two planes have a first distance therebetween, and the first distance is between 0.5 mm and 1 mm.

3. The display module according to claim 1 , wherein a surface of the second sub-sidewall facing away from the accommodating space and a surface of the retaining wall sidewall facing away from the accommodating space are substantially on a same plane.

4. The display module according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of retaining wall sidewalls comprise: a plurality of first retaining wall sidewalls extending along a first direction and a plurality of second retaining wall sidewalls extending along a second direction, the first direction intersects the second direction, and a length of each first retaining wall sidewall is greater than a length of each second retaining wall sidewall; and
the insert is only on the first retaining wall sidewall.

5. The display module according to claim 4 , wherein the plurality of first retaining wall sidewalls comprise two first retaining wall sidewalls arranged side by side in the second direction, and each first retaining wall sidewall is provided with the insert thereon; and
positions where the inserts are provided on the two first retaining wall sidewalls are mirror-symmetric with respect to a reference axis extending along the first direction.

6. The display module according to claim 4 , wherein the insert of the frame comprises a plurality of insert groups, each insert group comprises at least one insert, and the at least one insert in a same insert group is opposite to a same second sub-sidewall.

7. The display module according to claim 6 , wherein each insert group comprises at least two inserts disposed at intervals; and a farthest distance between two inserts farthest from each other in each insert group is greater than or equal to 24 mm.

8. The display module according to claim 6 , wherein
multiple insert groups are on each first retaining wall sidewall.

9. The display module according to claim 8 , wherein on each first retaining wall sidewall, a distance from one end of the first retaining wall sidewall to a center of an insert group adjacent to the one end and a distance from the other end of the first retaining wall sidewall to a center of an insert group adjacent to the other end are both in a range from 1/10 to ¼ times of H; and a center-to-center distance between any two adjacent insert groups is in a range from ⅕ to ½ times of H; and
wherein H is the length of the first retaining wall sidewall.

10. The display module according to claim 8 , wherein on each first retaining wall sidewall, a distance from one end of the first retaining wall sidewall to a center of an insert group adjacent to the one end and a distance from the other end of the first retaining wall sidewall to a center of an insert group adjacent to the other end are both less than or equal to 100 mm; and a center-to-center distance between any two adjacent insert groups is less than or equal to 150 mm.

11. The display module according to claim 8 , wherein on each first retaining wall sidewall, a distance from one end of the first retaining wall sidewall to a center of an insert group adjacent to the one end and a distance from the other end of the first retaining wall sidewall to a center of an insert group adjacent to the other end are both less than or equal to 100 mm; and a center-to-center distance between any two adjacent insert groups is in a range from ⅕ to ½ times of the length of the first retaining wall sidewall.

12. The display module according to claim 8 , wherein the insert groups are uniformly distributed on each first retaining wall sidewall.

13. The display module according to claim 1 , wherein the insert comprises a first insert portion and a second insert portion extending towards the bottom wall; and
a thickness of the second insert portion gradually becomes smaller as getting closer to the bottom wall.

14. The display module according to claim 13 , wherein the second insert portion has a height in a range from ⅓ to ½ of a height of the insert.

15. The display module according to claim 1 , wherein a slot is provided at an end of the second sub-sidewall away from the bottom wall; and
the display module further comprises an optical film comprising a main part and a lug on the main part; the main part is in the accommodating space, and the lug is inserted into the slot.

16. The display module according to claim 15 , wherein a depth by which the lug is inserted into the slot is greater than or equal to a half of a thickness of the second sub-sidewall.

17. The display module according to claim 15 , wherein an orthographic projection of the optical film on a plane where the bottom wall is located and an orthographic projection of the supporting platform on the plane where the bottom wall is located are overlapped with each other, and a width of an overlapped area is greater than or equal to 0.8 mm.
