As shown in fig. 4, the surface of the first connection portion 111 facing the second connection portion 131 is located on a different plane from the surface of the extension portion 120 facing the second connection portion 131, and the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 are respectively attached to the outer surfaces of the second connection portion 131 facing different directions, so that the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 can be prevented from being located on the same plane, and the total occupied area of the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 on the same plane is prevented from being excessively large.

The length direction, width direction, thickness direction in the present application are for convenience of description only and are not meant to limit any dimension, e.g., the length may be smaller, equal to, or greater than the width.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the first connection portion 111 has an edge extending in the length direction Y, to which the extension portion 120 is connected. As shown in fig. 4, the extending direction of the extension portion 120 intersects with the extending direction of the first connection portion 111, the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 are located in different planes, and the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 are respectively attached to the outer surfaces of the second connection portion 131 with different orientations, so that an excessive total area of the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 on the same plane can be avoided.
As shown in fig. 4, the extending direction of the extension portion 120 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the first connection portion 111, the extension portion 120 extends along the Z direction, the first connection portion 111 extends along the X direction, the angle between the extending direction of the extension portion 120 and the extending direction of the first connection portion 111 is 90 °, the angle between the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 is easier to determine, and the bonding difficulty between the extension portion 120 and the second connection portion 131 can be reduced.
The extension portion 120 is attached to the second connecting portion 131, one end of the extension portion 120 away from the first connecting portion 111 may incline toward the center direction of the first connecting portion 111, an included angle between the extending direction of the extension portion 120 and the extending direction of the first connecting portion 111 is an acute angle, the extension portion 120 may prevent the second connecting portion 131 from moving toward the direction away from the first connecting portion 111, the extension portion 120 plays a limiting role on the second connecting portion 131, the extension portion 120 may better fix the second connecting portion 131, and connection stability of the display panel 110 and the flexible circuit board 130 is improved.
A description will be given below of an implementation of the bonding connection between the extension 120 and the second connection portion 131.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 4, the extension portion 120 may be attached to a side surface of the second connection portion 131 extending in the thickness direction, so that a connection area between the display panel 110 and the flexible circuit board 130 may be increased, thereby improving a connection strength between the display panel 110 and the flexible circuit board 130, and improving a signal transmission stability between the IC and the display panel 110, so as to ensure a signal stability of the display module 100 and the display device.
Specifically, the side surfaces of the second connection portion 131 extending in the thickness direction include a first side surface, a second side surface, and a third side surface, where the first side surface and the second side surface are disposed opposite to each other in the width direction X of the second connection portion 131, and the third side surface is an outer surface of the second connection portion 131 near the display area 110a side. The extension 120 may be attached to at least one of the first side surface, the second side surface, and the third side surface. When the extension part 120 is simultaneously attached to the first side surface and the second side surface, the first side surface and the second side surface can prevent the second connection part 131 from moving along the width direction X, so as to limit the second connection part 131, fix the second connection part 131 better, and improve the connection stability of the display panel 110 and the flexible circuit board 130.
In other examples, as shown in fig. 5, the extension 120 may also be attached to a surface of the second connection portion 131 facing away from the first connection portion 111. At this time, the extension portion 120 can prevent the second connection portion 131 from moving towards the direction away from the first connection portion 111, and the extension portion 120 and the first connection portion 111 play a limiting role on the second connection portion 131, so that the second connection portion 131 can be better fixed, and the connection stability of the display panel 110 and the flexible circuit board 130 is improved.

In some embodiments, the second connection portion 131 may integrally form a thickened portion 132, and the thickness of the thickened portion 132 is greater than that of the rest of the flexible circuit board 130. I.e., the thickness of the second connection portion 131 is greater than the thickness of the rest of the flexible circuit board 130, the area of the side surface of the second connection portion 131 extending in the thickness direction is greater, i.e., the areas of the first side surface and the second side surface are greater, and the connection area of the extension portion 120 and the second connection portion 131 is greater. In addition, the thickness of the rest part of the flexible circuit board 130 except the thickened part 132 is smaller, so that the bending performance of the rest part of the flexible circuit board 130 is better, and the volume occupied by the flexible circuit board 130 is smaller.
In other examples, the portion of the second connection portion 131 may form a thickened portion 132, and the thickness of the thickened portion 132 may be greater than the thickness of the remaining portion of the second connection portion 131, and the thickness of the thickened portion 132 may also be greater than the thickness of the remaining portion of the flexible circuit board 130 (i.e., the portion other than the second connection portion 131). The thickened portion 132 can increase the area of the side surface of the second connection portion 131 extending in the thickness direction, that is, the areas of the first side surface and the second side surface, thereby increasing the connection area of the extension portion 120 with the first side surface and the second side surface.
In other examples, the outer extension 120 may be further attached to a surface of the thickened portion 132 on a side facing away from the first connection portion 111, and the principle thereof is the same as that of the outer extension 120 attached to a surface of the second connection portion 131 on a side facing away from the first connection portion 111, which is not described herein.
