Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides a backlight module, a display device and an assembled display device. The backlight module includes: a backplate ( 1 ), including a bottom wall ( 101 ); a light source ( 3 ), disposed on the bottom wall ( 1 ); an optical film layer, disposed opposite to the bottom wall ( 101 ) and located on a light emitting side of the light source ( 3 ); a middle frame, including a first frame body ( 4 ) and a second frame body ( 5 ), where the first frame body ( 4 ) is arranged around periphery of the bottom wall ( 101 ), the second frame body ( 5 ) is arranged on an inner side surface of the first frame body ( 4 ), and the second frame body ( 5 ) includes a transparent structure; and the optical film layer ( 6 ) is supported at one end of the second frame body ( 5 ) away from the bottom wall ( 101 ). The present disclosure can improve display effect.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A backlight module, comprising: a backplate, comprising a bottom wall; a light source, disposed on the bottom wall; an optical film layer, disposed opposite to the bottom wall and located on a light emitting side of the light source; and a middle frame, comprising a first frame body and a second frame body, wherein the first frame body is arranged around a periphery of the bottom wall, the second frame body is arranged on an inner side surface of the first frame body, and the second frame body comprises a transparent structure; and the optical film layer is supported at one end of the second frame body away from the bottom wall, wherein the inner side surface of the first frame body comprises a first slope, an included angle between the first slope and the bottom wall of the backplate is an obtuse angle, and the second frame body is disposed on the first slope, wherein the inner side surface of the first frame body further comprises a second slope, the second slope is located between the first slope and the bottom wall of the backplate, an included angle between the second slope and the bottom wall of the backplate is an obtuse angle, and the included angle between the second slope and the bottom wall of the backplate is smaller than the included angle between the first slope and the bottom wall of the backplate, and wherein a side of the second frame body facing away from the first slope comprises: a third slope, connected to the second slope and being coplanar with the second slope; a fourth slope, an included angle between the fourth slope and the bottom wall of the backplate being greater than an included angle between the third slope and the bottom wall of the backplate; and a support surface, provided at the end of the second frame body away from the bottom wall of the backplate, wherein the support surface extends towards the first slope, is connected between the fourth slope and the first slope, and is parallel to the bottom wall of the backplate. 2. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein the second frame body is bonded to the first slope. 3. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein the first slope is provided with a recessed portion, the second frame body is provided with a protruding portion, and the protruding portion is engaged with the recessed portion. 4. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein in a direction parallel to the bottom wall of the backplate, the first slope is located on a side of the second slope away from the light source; the inner side surface of the first frame body further comprises a connecting surface connecting the first slope and the second slope, and the connecting surface is parallel to the bottom wall of the backplate; and the second frame body fits with the connecting surface. 5. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein the optical film layer is supported on the support surface; and the second frame body further comprises: a protrusion, disposed on the support surface, wherein the protrusion comprises a first side surface facing the light source and a second side surface facing away from the light source, an included angle between the first side surface and the bottom wall of the backplate is an obtuse angle, and an included angle between the second side surface and the bottom wall of the backplate is an acute angle. 6. The backlight module according to claim 5 , wherein the included angle between the first side surface and the bottom wall of the backplate ranges between 120°-150°. 7. The backlight module according to claim 5 , wherein the protrusion is strip-shaped and extends along a periphery of the light source. 8. The backlight module according to claim 7 , wherein a height of the protrusion ranges between 50 μm-200 μm; and/or a width of the protrusion ranges between 50 μm-400 μm. 9. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein the optical film layer is supported on the support surface; and a distance between a boundary of the support surface close to the light source and a boundary of the support surface away from the light source ranges between 2 mm-3.5 mm. 10. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein the second frame body comprises an annular structure. 11. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the second frame body comprises transparent plastic. 12. The backlight module according to claim 1 , wherein an end of the first frame body away from the bottom wall of the backplate is provided with a support portion for supporting a display panel, and the support portion comprises a first surface facing the light source and a second surface facing away from the light source; and a side of the first surface close to the display panel is bent toward the second surface. 13. The backlight module according to claim 12 , wherein a distance between the side of the first surface close to the display panel and a side of the second surface close to the display panel ranges between 0.2 mm-0.5 mm. 14. A display device, comprising: the backlight module according to claim 1 ; and a display panel, supported on the first frame body. 15. An assembled display device, formed by assembling a plurality of display devices according to claim 14 .
