Abstract

An in-cell touch-type display panel includes an array substrate divided into a display area, a bezel area, and a pad area, gate lines, data lines and touch lines disposed in the display area of the array substrate, a data pad and a touch pad disposed in the pad area of the array substrate, and data link lines connecting the data lines to the data pad and the size of a bezel can be reduced by applying a dual link to data link lines using gate line metal and data line metal.

Claims (32)

1. An in-cell touch-type display panel comprising:

a first substrate divided into a display area, a bezel area, and a pad area;

gate lines, data lines and touch lines disposed in the display area, the gate lines, the data lines and the touch lines being disposed on different layers;

data pads and touch pads disposed in the pad area; and

data link lines in the bezel area, the data link lines including odd-numbered data link lines connecting odd-numbered data lines to the data pads and even-numbered data link links connecting the even-numbered data lines to the data pads,

wherein each of the odd-numbered data link lines and the even-numbered data link lines comprise a first link line disposed close to the display area and a second link line disposed close to the pad area,

wherein the first link line of each of the odd-numbered data link lines is formed of a same material as the gate lines;

wherein the second link line of each of the odd-numbered data link lines is formed of a same material as the data lines;

wherein the first link line of each of the even-numbered data link lines is formed of the same material as the data lines; and

wherein the second link line of each of the even-numbered data link lines is formed of the same material as the gate lines.

2. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 1 , further comprising:

third link lines disposed in the bezel area, the touch lines being electrically connected to the touch pad by the third link lines,

wherein the third link lines are formed of a same material as the touch lines.

3. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the data pads are disposed on a same layer as the data lines and formed of the same material as the data lines.

4. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the touch pads are disposed on a same layer as the gate lines and formed of the same material as the gate lines.

5. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 1 , wherein each of the odd-numbered data lines and the second link line of the odd-numbered data link lines is electrically connected to the first link line of a corresponding odd-numbered data link line through a contact hole, and

wherein the second link line of each of the even-numbered data link lines is electrically connected to a corresponding data pad and the first link line of a corresponding even-numbered data link line through a contact hole.

6. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 5 , wherein the second link line of the odd-numbered data link lines and the data pad are integrally formed, and the first link line of the even-numbered data link lines and the data line are integrally formed.

7. An in-cell touch-type display panel comprising:

a first substrate where a display area, a bezel area and a pad area are defined;

gate lines, data lines and touch lines disposed in the display area, the gate lines, the data lines and the touch lines being disposed on different layers;

data pads and touch pads disposed in the pad area; and

data link lines in the bezel area, each of the data link lines including a first link line disposed close to the display area and a second link line disposed close to the pad area,

wherein the first link lines of the odd-numbered data link lines which are connected to the odd-numbered data lines are disposed on a layer different from the first link lines of the even-numbered data link lines which are connected to the even-numbered data lines,

wherein the second link line of the odd-numbered data link lines are disposed on a layer different from the second link lines of the even-numbered data link lines, and

wherein the touch lines are connected to the touch pads by third link lines formed of a same material as the touch lines.

8. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 7 , wherein the data pad are disposed on a same layer as the data lines and formed of the same material as the data lines.

9. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 7 , wherein the touch pad are disposed on a same layer as the gate lines and formed of the same material as the gate lines.

10. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 7 , wherein each of the odd-numbered data lines and the second link lines of the odd-numbered data link lines is electrically connected to the first link line of a corresponding odd-numbered data link line through a contact hole.

11. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 7 , wherein the second link line of each of the even-numbered data link lines is electrically connected to a corresponding data pad and the first link line of a corresponding even-numbered data link line through a contact hole.

12. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 7 , wherein the second link line of each of the odd-numbered data link lines is integrally formed with a corresponding data pad.

13. The in-cell touch-type display panel according to claim 7 , wherein the first link line of each of the even-numbered data link lines is integrally formed with a corresponding even-numbered data line.
