Thesubstrate 201 may be a fully transparent substrate, and thebottom color layer 208 may be formed on the surface of thesubstrate 201 by screen printing using a translucent ink. In some embodiments, the color of thebase color layer 208 may be the same or close to the exterior color of the home appliance using the display film, for example, the same or close to the panel color of the home appliance display screen of the home appliance, to coordinate the appearance color of the home appliance. In one example, thebase color layer 208 is black or silver. As shown in fig. 10 (2), a color icon A, B, C, D is formed by four-color printing on the side of theground color layer 208 opposite to thebase material 201.
As shown in fig. 10 (3), thebackground layer 202 is printed in the area of thebackground layer 208 outside the color icon A, B, C, D. Thebackground layer 202 may make the colored icon A, B, C, D visible and may make the appearance pleasing. Thebackground layer 202 may be formed by screen printing. Thebackground layer 202 may be an opaque light-shielding layer. Thebackground layer 202 is similar to thebackground layer 102 shown in fig. 8 and will not be described in detail here.
In another embodiment, thebackground layer 202 is formed between thebasecoat layer 208 and thesubstrate 201, with the color icon A, B, C, D offset from thebackground layer 202. Thebackground layer 202 is formed on thesubstrate 201 to leave a region where the color icon A, B, C, D is required, thebackground layer 208 is formed on thebackground layer 202 and the region left on thesubstrate 201, and the color icon A, B, C, D is formed on thebackground layer 208. The colored icon A, B, C, D does not overlap with thebackground layer 202.
In another embodiment, thebackground layer 202 is formed on thesubstrate 201, and thebase color layer 208 and the colored icons A, B, C, D are offset from thebackground layer 202. The material of thebase color layer 208 may be saved. Thebase color layer 208 and the color icon A, B, C, D are overlapped, and the color icon A, B, C, D is positioned on the side of thebase color layer 208 opposite to thesubstrate 201, so that thebase color layer 208 and the color icon A, B, C, D are not overlapped with thebackground layer 202 for hiding the color icon.
In another embodiment, thesubstrate 201 is a translucent substrate and the hidden color icon is formed on the translucent substrate. Thebase color layer 208 may be omitted, thecolor icon layer 203 may be directly formed on the surface of thesubstrate 201, and thebackground layer 202 may also be directly formed on the surface of thesubstrate 201. The process is simplified.
Similar to thediffusion layer 104 shown in fig. 8, in the embodiment shown in fig. 10, atranslucent diffusion layer 204 may be formed by screen printing on the side of thecolor mark layer 103 facing away from thesubstrate 201, as shown in fig. 4 in fig. 10, and described in detail above.
FIG. 11 is a schematic flow chart illustrating the fabrication of another embodiment of a display film of the present application. The embodiment shown in fig. 11 is similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 8 and 10. In the embodiment shown in fig. 11, the color icons ofcolor icon layer 303 include visible color icons A, B and hidden color icons C, D. In fig. 11 (1), a visible color icon A, B forming acolor icon layer 303 is printed in four colors on abase material 301. Thesubstrate 301 is a fully transparent substrate.Base color layer 308 is further screen printed oversubstrate 301, as shown in fig. 11 (2), except that color icon A, B is visible. A hidden color icon C, D is further printed in four colors on thebase color layer 308 as shown in fig. 11 (3). Thebackground layer 302 is screen printed further on thebase color layer 308, except that the colored icons C, D are hidden. Thebackground layer 302 is outside the visible colored icon A, B and the hidden colored icon C, D, as shown in diagram (4) of fig. 11. Thelight diffusing layer 304 is further printed over the visible colored icon A, B and the hidden colored icon C, D. The detailed description of the embodiment of fig. 11 refers to the related description above, and is not repeated herein.
