Abstract

The present invention discloses a mobile terminal, comprising a bottom frame; a glass cover; a screen module covering the bottom frame; wherein the glass cover covers the screen module and two edges of both sides of the glass cover connect to the bottom frame; both the screen module and the glass cover have an arch opposite to the bottom frame; two edges of both sides of the screen module extend over both sides of the glass cover and are covered by the bottom frame. The beneficial effect of the above technical solution is: by utilizing the arch of the screen module and the glass cover opposite to the bottom frame, the front surface of the screen module and two sides of screen module do not have black edge, so that the display effect is excellent.

Claims (23)

1. An edge-to-edge mobile terminal, comprising:

a bottom frame;

a glass cover;

a screen module covering the bottom frame;

wherein, the glass cover covers the screen module and two edges of both sides of the glass cover connect to the bottom frame;

both the screen module and the glass cover have an arch opposite to the bottom frame;

two edges of both sides of the screen module extend over both sides of the glass cover and are covered by the bottom frame;

wherein the two edges of both sides of the screen module have an inward first bend respectively.

2. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a circuit board arranged in a space generated by arching of the screen module, the bottom frame covering the space.

3. The mobile terminal according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a middle frame by which the circuit board is fixed in the space.

4. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the screen module comprises a touch panel and a display screen, the display screen covers the touch panel.

5. The mobile terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the bottom frame is provided with at least one groove, two edges of both sides of the touch panel and two edges of both sides of the display screen extend into the at least one groove respectively.

6. The mobile terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the screen module and two sides of the glass cover are bent to form the arch.

7. The mobile terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the display screen is a flexible display device, and bending on both sides of the screen module is achieved by bending the flexible display device.

8. The mobile terminal according to claim 7 , wherein the flexible display device is an AMOLED display device.

9. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the first bend has a bending angle belonging to (0°, 180°].

10. The mobile terminal according to claim 9 , wherein the bending angle of the first bend is 90°, a bottom of the screen module which is at an outside of the first bend is flush with bottoms of both sides of the glass cover.

11. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the arch is formed by second bends at both sides of the screen module and the glass cover.

12. The mobile terminal according to claim 11 , wherein each of the second bends has a bending angle belonging to [20°, 90°].

13. The mobile terminal according to claim 1 , wherein both sides of the bottom frame have an upward flange respectively, the glass cover is connected to the flange.

14. The mobile terminal according to claim 13 , wherein the flange has an outside wall with a flat surface, and outside of the glass cover is flush with the outside wall.
