That is, when the display module support assembly 100' is placed on the side of the bottom plate 120 of the display module support assembly 100 away from the display module 160, the support member 142' of the display module support assembly 100' may be from the bottom plate 120. The protrusion enters the receiving groove 180 of the support member 142 and is connected to the support member 142 The connection structure 146 and the top support structure 148 still maintain space for other components, such as the flexible circuit board 164' of the display module support assembly 100', so that the connection structure 146, the top support structure 148, and the connection Structure 146' and top support structure 148' together form an accommodation space. When the flexible circuit board 164' of the other display module supporting component 100' is located in the accommodating space, the supporting member 142' can provide the supporting force of the flexible circuit board 164' from the opposite direction of the gravity acting direction, and at the same time, the supporting member 142 and The support member 142' can collectively limit the flexible circuit board 164' to the accommodating space, reduce the sway and oscillating stroke space of the flexible circuit board 164', and avoid frequent direct contact between the flexible circuit board 164' and the support member 142.

Figure 6 is a diagram showing a display module according to another embodiment of the present invention. A side cross-sectional view of the support assembly and the other display module support assembly, wherein the display module support assembly 100 is a section viewed along line 2-2' in FIG. 1 and illustrated in FIG. It is a cross-sectional view in which a plurality of sets of display module support assemblies 100, 100' are repeatedly overlapped. However, in the first figure, for the convenience of description, only a single set of display module support assemblies 100 are shown. As shown in FIG. 6 , in one embodiment of the present invention, the connection structure 154 of the support member 150 of the display module support assembly 100 and the top support structure 156 together form a receiving groove 190 on a side away from the flexible circuit board 164 . The tongue 158 extends from the bottom support structure 152 into the receiving groove 190. When the display module support assembly 100 and the other display module support assembly 100 ′ are stacked along the stacking direction A of the bottom plate 120 and the display module 160 , the bottom plate 120 is stacked on the display module of the other display module support assembly 100 ′. In the 160', the receiving slot 190 is configured to receive the connecting structure 154' of the other display module supporting assembly 100' and the top supporting structure 156', and the tongue 158 is not connected with the connecting structure 154' and the top supporting structure 156'. contact.

In another embodiment of the present invention, the display module support group After the accommodating groove 190 formed by the connecting structure 154 of the support member 150 of the member 100 and the top support structure 156 is assembled, an accommodating space can be formed between the support member 150' of the other display module supporting assembly 100'. That is, when the display module support assembly 100' is placed on the side of the bottom plate 120 of the display module support assembly 100 away from the display module 160, the support member 150' of the display module support assembly 100' may be from the bottom plate 120. The protrusion enters the receiving groove 190 of the support member 150, and avoids the space between the tongue 158 and the connecting structure 154 of the support member 150, the top support structure 156 and the tongue piece 158 for retaining other components, such as It is a component such as the flexible circuit board 164 ′ of the display module supporting component 100 ′, so that the connecting structure 154 , the top supporting structure 156 , the connecting structure 154 ′ and the top supporting structure 156 ′ together form an accommodating space. When the flexible circuit board 164' of the other display module supporting assembly 100' is located in the accommodating space, the supporting member 150' can provide the supporting force of the flexible circuit board 164' from the opposite direction of the gravity acting direction, and at the same time, the flexible circuit board 164 'Can avoid direct contact with the tongue 158, and is supported by the support member 150 and the support member 150' in the accommodating space, reducing the sway and oscillating stroke space of the flexible circuit board 164', avoiding the flexible circuit board 164' and support The piece 150 or tab 158 has frequent direct contact.

Due to the support member 140 of the display module support assembly 100 and another The support member 140' of the display module support assembly 100' collectively limits the flexible circuit board 164' to the accommodating space, except that the flexible circuit board 164' can be prevented from being associated with the support member 140 of the display module support assembly 100 disposed above. Contact and pressure grinding, at the same time, can reduce or avoid the risk of the flexible printed circuit board 164' being deformed by the support member 140 for a long time. Or, because the flexible circuit board 164' is confined in the accommodating space, the swaying and oscillating stroke space of the flexible circuit board 164' is reduced, and thus, the combination of the support member 140 and the support member 140' can be reduced during storage or movement. not The display module 160' before assembly with the outer frame is damaged by the flexible circuit board 164', and the signal is abnormal or damaged. That is, the support member 140 of the display module support assembly 100 and the support member 140' of the other display module support assembly 100' can improve the yield of the display panel after the transportation or storage process, thereby saving raw material costs.

In summary, the present invention provides a display module support assembly including a bottom plate, a support member, and a display module. The bottom plate has a break. The breach is located on the edge of the bottom plate. A support member is provided on the break of the bottom plate. The support comprises two bottom support structures, two connection structures and a top support structure. The two bottom support structures are disposed on the bottom plate and are respectively located on opposite sides of the breach. The two connecting structures respectively connect the two bottom supporting structures and are bent and lifted relative to the bottom plate. The top support structure is located above the breach of the bottom plate and is connected between the two connection structures. The display module includes a printed circuit board and a flexible circuit board. The printed circuit board is located at the edge of the display module and is supported on the bottom support structure, respectively. The flexible circuit board is connected between the corresponding two adjacent printed circuit boards. When the display module is placed on the bottom plate, the support member and the flexible printed circuit board will contact each other, and the support member provides the flexible printed circuit board supporting force in the direction of parallel gravity, thereby avoiding or reducing the shaking of the flexible printed circuit board during the moving process.
