Abstract

An electronic assembly includes a transparent adhesive layer, a transparent cover, a display module and a frame. The transparent adhesive layer has a first adhesive surface and a second adhesive surface opposite to the first adhesive surface, the second adhesive surface having a central region and a peripheral region around the central region. The transparent cover is adhered to the first adhesive surface of the transparent adhesive layer. The display module is adhered to the central region of the transparent adhesive layer. The frame has a border carrying part which is adhered to the peripheral region of the transparent adhesive layer.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electronic assembly comprising:
a transparent adhesive layer having a first adhesive surface and a second adhesive surface opposite to the first adhesive surface, the second adhesive surface having a central region and a peripheral region around the central region;
a transparent cover adhered to the first adhesive surface of the transparent adhesive layer;
a display module adhered to the central region of the transparent adhesive layer;
a frame having a border carrying part, the border carrying part being adhered to the peripheral region of the transparent adhesive layer, wherein the frame has a receiving slot for installing the transparent cover and the display module, a decorative layer, the transparent cover and the display module are accommodated inside the receiving slot, and the border carrying part adhered to the transparent adhesive layer forms a bottom surface of the receiving slot; and
a touch module disposed between the transparent cover and the transparent adhesive layer, wherein the touch module directly contacts with the decorative layer, and a thickness of the touch module in the central region is equal to a thickness of the decorative layer,
wherein the decorative layer, the touch module and the transparent adhesive layer are stacked between the transparent cover and the border carrying part,
wherein a total thickness of the decorative layer, the touch module and the transparent adhesive layer is equal to a distance between the border carrying part and a surface of the transparent cover facing the first adhesive surface of the transparent adhesive layer.

2. The electronic assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the decorative layer is disposed on the periphery of the transparent cover, located between the transparent cover and the transparent adhesive layer, and extending from the peripheral region to the central region.

3. The electronic assembly according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a buffer layer installed and compressed between a bottom of the receiving slot and a bottom surface of the display module, and applied force at a bottom of the display module.

4. The electronic assembly according to claim 3 , wherein the thickness of the uncompressed buffer layer is 1 to 3 times the thickness of the compressed buffer layer.

5. An electronic assembly comprising:
a transparent adhesive layer having a first adhesive surface and a second adhesive surface opposite to the first adhesive surface, the second adhesive surface having a central region and a peripheral region around the central region;
a transparent cover;
a touch module, one surface thereof adhered to the transparent cover, and another surface adhered to the first adhesive surface of the transparent adhesive layer, wherein the touch module is disposed between the transparent cover and the transparent adhesive layer, wherein the touch module directly contacts with a decorative layer, and a thickness of the touch module in the central region is equal to a thickness of the decorative layer;
a display module adhered to the central region of the transparent adhesive layer; and
a frame having a border carrying part, the border carrying part being adhered to the peripheral region of the transparent adhesive layer, wherein the frame has a receiving slot for installing the transparent cover and the display module, the decorative layer, the transparent cover and the display module are accommodated inside the receiving slot, and the border carrying part adhered to the transparent adhesive layer forms a bottom surface of the receiving slot,
wherein the decorative layer, the touch module and the transparent adhesive layer are stacked between the transparent cover and the border carrying part,
wherein a total thickness of the decorative layer, the touch module and the transparent adhesive layer is equal to a distance between the border carrying part and a surface of the transparent cover facing the first adhesive surface of the transparent adhesive layer.

6. The electronic assembly according to claim 5 , wherein the decorative layer is disposed on the periphery of the transparent cover, located between the transparent cover and the transparent adhesive layer, and extending from the peripheral region to the central region.

7. The electronic assembly according to claim 5 , further comprising:
a buffer layer installed between a bottom of the receiving slot and a bottom surface of the display module and leaning against a bottom of the display module.

8. The electronic assembly according to claim 7 , wherein the thickness of the uncompressed buffer layer is 1 to 3 times the thickness of the compressed buffer layer.
