Electro-optical apparatus and display module
View Patent ↗An electro-optical apparatus including a display module and a touch panel is provided. The display module includes a body, at least a first positioning element, and at least a second positioning element. The body has a display surface and a bottom surface opposite to the display surface. The first positioning element and the second positioning element are connected to the body. The first positioning element is disposed on a first side of the body and the second positioning element is disposed on a second side of the body that is adjacent to the first side. The first positioning element and the second positioning element protrude from the display surface in a direction away from the bottom surface. The touch panel is disposed on the display surface of the body, and edges of the touch panel abut against the first positioning element and the second positioning element.
1. An electro-optical apparatus comprising:
a display module comprising a body, at least a first positioning element, and at least a second positioning element, the body comprising a frame and having a display surface and a bottom surface opposite to the display surface, the first positioning element and the second positioning element being connected to the body, the first positioning element being located on a first side of the body, the second positioning element being located on a second side of the body that is adjacent to the first side, and the first positioning element and the second positioning element protruding from the display surface in a direction away from the bottom surface, wherein the frame comprises a front frame part and a back frame part, at least a portion of the first positioning element or the second positioning element is integrally formed with the back frame part, and the front frame part has an opening corresponding to the first positioning element or the second positioning element integrally formed with the back frame part such that the first positioning element or the second positioning element integrally formed with the back frame part penetrates through the opening; and
a touch panel disposed on the display surface of the body and edges of the touch panel abutting against the sides of the first positioning element and the second positioning element.
