[0046] Optionally, in the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, a material of the foam layer 31 may be a shading material, so as to enable the second structure part 312 of the foam layer 31 to form the light-blocking layer with better shading performance on the inner wall of the open hole 11, which is more beneficial to avoiding light leakage of the lateral side of the open hole 11.

[0047] Optionally, the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, further includes: [0048] a shading layer 21 on a side of the cover plate 2 close to the display module 1.

[0049] The shading layer 21 includes a second through hole 211. The orthographic projection of the open hole 11 on the cover plate covers the orthographic projection of the second through hole 211 on the cover plate.

[0050] In order to shade an edge of the open hole 11 on the side of the light-exiting face of the display module 1, the shading layer 21 is arranged on a side of the cover plate 2 facing the display module 1. A second through hole 211 opposite to the open hole 11 is formed in the shading layer 21. The second through hole 211 is opposite to the open hole 11 to enable a shooting module to realize a lighting shooting function. The shading layer 21 may perform shading on an edge part of the open hole 11 on a light-exiting side of the display module 1, so as to avoid light leakage of the light-exiting face of the display panel on the edge of the open hole 11.

[0051] Optionally, in the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, the open hole 11 of the display module 1 is generally a circular hole. The open hole 11 includes a symmetric axis in the direction perpendicular to the light-exiting face of the display module 1. The first through hole 321 may be arranged to be circular. The second through hole 211 may be arranged to be a circular hole.

That is, a central axis of the second through hole 211 and a central axis of the first through hole 321 may coincide with a central axis of the open hole 11.

[0052] Optionally, in the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, it may be arranged that an area of the orthographic projection of the second through hole 211 on the cover plate 2 is smaller than an area of the orthographic projection of the open hole 11 on the cover plate 2. That is, a diameter B (as shown in FIG. 1) of the second through hole 211 is smaller than a diameter of the open hole 11 of the display module 1, shading leakproofness can be enhanced, and a lateral side of the shooting module is better shaded on the light-exiting face side of the display module 1.

[0053] In conjunction with FIG. 1, referring to FIG. 2, in the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to avoid tilting of an edge of a first through hole 321 in a metal layer 32, it may be arranged that a diameter of the orthographic projection of the first through hole 321 on the cover plate 2 is greater than a diameter of the orthographic projection of the open hole 11 on the cover plate.

[0054] The diameter of the first through hole in the metal layer 21 is greater than the diameter of the open hole 11 of the display module 1. The second structure part 312 is bent towards an interior of the open hole 11 to form a bent line 316 matched with an edge of the open hole 11. That is, the diameter of the first through hole 321 in the metal layer 32 is greater than the diameter of the bent lines of the second structure part 312 in the foam layer 31. A certain distance is arranged between the edge of the first through hole 321 in the metal layer 32 and the bent lines of the second structure part 312 in the foam layer 31. The edge of the first through hole 321 in the metal layer 32 cannot be affected by deformation of a bent position of the second structure part 312 in the foam layer 31 after being attached with the foam layer 31, and it can be guaranteed that the metal layer 32 is well attached with the foam layer 31.

[0055] Optionally, in the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, the foam layer 31 further includes a third structure part 313. The third structure part 313 includes a first end and a second end. The first end is connected with an end of the second structure part 312 close to the shading layer 21, and the second end is connected with the shading layer 21. Connection here refers to direct contact or connection through other layers. The third structure part 313 is arranged at a free end of the second structure part 312, and the third structure part 313 connects the second structure part 312 with the shading layer 21, which is beneficial to enhancing shading leakproofness of the lateral side of the open hole 11 in the display module.

[0056] Optionally, in the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, the second structure part 312 completely covers the inner wall of the open hole 11. The first structure part 311, the second structure part 312 and the third structure part 313 are of a continuous integrated structure.

[0057] In the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, a part in the foam layer 31 corresponding to the open hole 11 can be uniformly divided around the central axis of the open hole 11 to form the structure part 312. The structure part 312 is uniformly attached to the inner wall of the open hole 11 to uniformly shade the inner wall of the open hole 11. An excessive gap between the adjacent second structure parts cannot appear, and the shading performance is better.

[0058] The second structure part 312 and the first structure part 311 are of the continuous integrated structure. The second structure part 312 is bent towards the interior of the open hole 11 to be attached to the inner wall of the open hole 11. Tiny cracks existing in the second structure part 312 (namely a cutting line 314 between the second structure part 312) cannot expose too much of the inner wall of the open hole 11, and it can be considered that the second structure part 312 can completely cover the inner wall of the open hole 11. The free end of the second structure part 312 points to the center of the second through hole 211 in the shading layer 21. The third structure part 313 can be considered as a part of the second structure part 312 at the free end extending to the cover plate 2 and in lap joint with the shading layer 21. The third structure part 313 is connected with the shading layer 21 on the cover plate 2, connection is compact, the shading leakproofness is ensured, a better shading effect is achieved, light leakage of the edge of the open hole 11 of the display module 1 is avoided.

[0059] In the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, a length size of the second structure part 312 and the third structure part 313 is arranged according to a total sum of a thickness size A (as shown in FIG. 1) of the display module 1 in a direction perpendicular to a light-exiting face and a lap joint length C of the third structure part 313 in lap joint with the cover plate 2, so that the second end of the third structure part 313 can be in lap joint with the shading layer 21 of the cover plate 2 and does not extend into the second through hole 211 of the shading layer 21, thus the shading leakproofness is ensured, and the shooting function of the shooting module cannot be affected.

[0060] The length of the structure part 312 can be arranged to the same as the thickness size A of the display module 1. As the structural characteristics of the third structure part 313, the third structure part 313 cannot be completely attached at a corner between the inner wall of the open hole 11 of the display module 1 and the cover plate 2 according to the shape of the corner, namely, the third structure part 313 has an arc protruding towards to the shading layer 21, thus when the length of the third structure part 313 is set according to the lap-joint length C of the third structure part 313 in lap joint with the cover plate 2, a tolerance preserved size during attachment will be reserved.

[0061] In the above display panel provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, a side of the foam layer 31 facing away from the metal layer 32 can have a bonding layer 33, and the foam layer 31 can be bonded to the display module 1 through the bonding layer 33. The bonding layer 33 is a glue layer. The foam layer 31 can be bonded to the display module 1 through the glue layer, bonding is convenient and simple, and stability is good.

[0062] For example, the metal layer 32 can be copper foil. A material of the metal layer 32 can further be aluminum, golden or sliver, or other metal materials, which is not limited in the embodiments.

[0063] Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display device, including any display panel provided in the above embodiments, and a shooting module located in the open hole of the display module. The display device may be a mobile phone, a tablet personnel computer, a television, a display, a laptop, a camera photo frame, a navigator and other any products or parts with a display function. The implementation of the display device can refer to that of the embodiments of the above display panel, and repetitions will not be repeated.

[0064] Based on the same inventive concept, referring to FIG. 3, embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a method for preparing a display panel which includes the following operations.

[0065] Operation S101, a display module is formed, and a through open hole is formed in a direction perpendicular to a light-exiting face of the display module.

[0066] Operation S102, a light-blocking layer is attached to an inner wall of the open hole of the display module.

[0067] As shown in FIG. 4, the attaching the light-blocking layer to the inner wall of the open hole of the display module in above S102, includes the following operations.

[0068] Operation S201, a heat dissipation film 3 is formed. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the heat dissipation film 3 includes a foam layer 31 and a metal layer 31 which are stacked. A first through hole 321 is formed in the metal layer 32. The foam layer 31 includes a first structure part 311 and a second structure part 312. The first structure part 311 is between the display module 1 and the metal layer 32. A part in the foam layer 31 used for corresponding to the open hole 11 forms a plurality of cutting lines 314 distributed around a central axis of the first through hole 321 and perpendicular to the central axis of the first through hole 321, so as to form the second structure part 312 distributed around the central axis of the first through hole 321.

[0069] A length of each cutting line 314 is smaller than a radius of the first through hole 321. An end of the cutting line 314 facing the first through hole 321 does not need to be in contact with an edge of the first through hole 321. According to the need, after the heat dissipation film 3 is aligned and attached to the display module 1, the length of the cutting line 314 is set to be greater than or equal to a thickness of the display module 1, namely, one end of the cutting line 314 facing the first through hole 321 is in contact with the edge of the open hole 11 of the display module 1, or exceeds some of the edge of the open hole 11 of the display module 1, the attaching performance of the second structure part 312 with the display module 1 at the bent position can be enhanced, and the cutting line 314 can be arranged according to specific structural needs of products.

[0070] Step S202, the heat dissipation film 3 is attached to one side of the display module 1 facing away from a light-exiting face of the display module 1. The first through hole 321 of the metal layer 32 and the open hole 11 of the display module are oppositely arranged, so as to enable the central axis of the first through hole 321 of the metal layer 32 to coincide with the central axis of the open hole 11 of the display module. The second structure part 312 in the foam layer 31 is bent towards the inner wall of the open hole 11 and attached to the inner wall of the open hole 11, and the second structure part 312 forms a light-blocking layer.

[0071] As shown in FIG. 2, the foam layer 31 may have a third through hole 315. The third through hole 315 and the first through hole 321 of the metal layer 32 are coaxially arranged. The third through hole 315 communicates with each cutting line 314, and a diameter of the third through hole 315 is smaller than the diameter of the open hole 11 of the display module.

[0072] A center of a part in the foam layer 31 corresponding to the open hole 11 of the display module 1 has the third through hole 315. The length of the second structure part 312 of the foam layer 31 can be controlled according to a diameter size of the third through hole 315. The diameter of the third through hole 315 is arranged larger, the length of the second structure part 312 is relatively smaller. The situation that the second structure part 312 extends into a second open hole 211 of a shading layer 21 due to excessive length to affect lighting of a shooting module is avoided.

[0073] In the above preparation method, the enabling the second structure part 312 in the foam layer 31 to be bent towards the inner wall of the open hole 11 and attached to the inner wall of the open hole 11 in above operation S202, includes: [0074] as shown in FIG. 5, a cylindrical attaching rod 4 matched with the open hole 11 aligns with a part corresponding to the open hole 11 in the foam layer 31, one end of the attaching rod 4 is controlled to extend into the open hole 11 along the central axis of the open hole 11, and the second structure part in the foam layer 31 is bent into the open hole and attached to the inner wall of the open hole 11. For example, an end face of the end of the attaching rod 4 needing to extend into the open hole 11 of the display module 1 has a round chamfer, thereby facilitating assembly, and facilitating the second structure part 312 being attached with the inner wall of the open hole 11 of the display module 1.

[0075] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present disclosure without departing from the spirit or scope of the present disclosure. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure cover the modifications and variations of the present disclosure provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
