Abstract

An OLED module can include a panel, a middle frame coupled to a rear surface of the panel, a PCB assembly provided at the outside of the panel, connected to the panel and folded to be arranged on a rear surface of the middle frame, and a back cover coupled to an outer surface of the middle frame provided with the PCB assembly arranged thereon.

Claims (37)

1. An organic light emitting diode (OLED) module comprising:

a panel;

a middle frame coupled to a rear surface of the panel;

a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly provided outside of the panel, connected to the panel and folded to be arranged on a rear surface of the middle frame;

a back cover coupled to an outer surface of the middle frame provided with the PCB assembly arranged thereon; and

a PCB mounting part configured to mount the PCB assembly in the middle frame,

wherein the PCB mounting part comprises;

a first region recessed from the middle frame so as to correspond to thicknesses and shapes of connection cables, and

a second region recessed from the middle frame so as to correspond to thicknesses and shapes of a PCB,

wherein the second region of the PCB mounting part is arranged in central regions of the middle frame, and the first region of the PCB mounting part is arranged in lower regions of the middle frame,

wherein the second region of the PCB mounting part is formed larger than the first region of the PCB mounting part on a plane, and

wherein a detachable tape is coupled to one surface of the PCB and the second region of the PCB mounting part.

2. The OLED module according to claim 1 , wherein the middle frame includes a heat-radiating material.

3. The OLED module according to claim 1 , wherein the PCB assembly comprises:

the connection cables connected to the panel; and

the PCB coupled to the connection cables.

4. The OLED module according to claim 1 , wherein the detachable tape is a stretch tape.

5. The OLED module according to claim 1 , further comprising a radiation fan arranged in the back cover or on a rear surface of the back cover.

6. The OLED module according to claim 1 , wherein the back cover has a shape protruding outwardly so as to form an air pocket therein.

7. A display device comprising:

a cover glass;

a panel arranged under the cover glass;

an organic light emitting diode (OLED) module comprising a middle frame coupled to a rear surface of the panel, a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly provided outside of the panel, connected to the panel and folded to be arranged on a rear surface of the middle frame, and a back cover coupled to the middle frame provided with the PCB assembly arranged thereon; and

a PCB mounting part configured to mount the PCB assembly in the middle frame,

wherein the PCB mounting part comprises;

a first region recessed from the middle frame so as to correspond to thicknesses and shapes of connection cables, and

a second region recessed from the middle frame so as to correspond to thicknesses and shapes of a PCB,

wherein the second region of the PCB mounting part is arranged in central regions of the middle frame, and the first region of the PCB mounting part is arranged in lower regions of the middle frame,

wherein the second region of the PCB mounting part is formed larger than the first region of the PCB mounting part on a plane, and

wherein a detachable tape is coupled to one surface of the PCB and the second region of the PCB mounting part.

8. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the middle frame includes a heat-radiating material.

9. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the PCB assembly comprises:

the connection cables connected to the panel; and

the PCB coupled to the connection cables.

10. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the detachable tape is a stretch tape.

11. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the OLED module further comprises a radiation fan arranged in the back cover or on a rear surface of the back cover.

12. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the back cover has a shape protruding outwardly so as to form an air pocket therein.
