Embodiment
Below, with reference to the description of drawings embodiments of the invention.
With reference to Fig. 1, Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B, the above-mentioned cold cathode lamp 1 that possesses as light source, catoptron 2 and light guide plate 3 backlight.Be located at the wedge-like reflection groove 4 of the reflecting prism the inside on the bottom surface, inclined angle alpha on the inclined-plane of light incident side is that the angle on the inclined-plane of 45 ° of emitting sides is 85 °, the spacing of wedge-like reflection groove 4 is 200 μ m, the degree of depth of wedge-like reflection groove is minimum 50 μ m, be 160 μ m to the maximum, dark more from the light source degree of depth far away more.Herein, [degree of depth] is 22 distances towards the light guide plate internal direction to wedge-like reflection groove front end from the bottom surface.Above-mentioned light guide plate 3 22 has along wedge-like reflection groove bearing of trend vertically in the bottom surface, and in addition, there is being bottom reflection plate 7 par 15 between the banded disjunction par 5 of disjunction wedge-like reflection groove and the groove between the wedge-like reflection groove near 22 places, bottom surface.In addition, above-mentioned light guide plate has prism-like jog 6 on the exiting surface 21 of upper surface.This prism-like jog 6, the prism vertex angle β of its protuberance is 100 °, separation is 180 μ m.
The light that penetrates from cold cathode fluorescent lamp 1 is directly incident on the incident end face 20 or in catoptron 2 reflections and reenters on the incident end face 20 that is mapped to light guide plate 3, carries out total reflection repeatedly and propagate on the bottom surface 22 of light guide plate and exiting surface 21.At this moment, be mapped to light on the inclined-plane 24 of light incident side of wedge-like reflection groove 4 because of the effect on this inclined-plane 24 reflection that makes progress.Because wedge-like reflection groove 4 parts by 5 disjunctions of banded disjunction par, so intactly propagate by the light of disjunction par 5, can be controlled the space distribution of light ejaculation amount in light guide plate.Light by the reflecting surface reflection is penetrated by exiting surface 21 because of total reflection condition is damaged.On exiting surface, make the luminous intensity distribution distribution narrow by prism-like jog 6.
Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B illustrate from cold cathode fluorescent lamp 1 (CCFL:Cold CathodeFluorescent Lamp) and just incided the angular distribution analog result example of propagating on the light guide plate in light guide plate.On the both direction for all directions in all directions in the axle that contains cold cathode lamp 1 and the CCFL parallel surface of light guide plate face and the CCFL vertical plane vertical with this, formation with in light guide plate along the light guide plate rectilinear direction, i.e. 0 ° of symmetrical distribution that direction is the center.Angle in the CCFL parallel surface and angle and the initial point in the CCFL vertical plane all are along the light guide plate rectilinear direction in light guide plate.Such light is subjected to wedge-like reflection groove reflex time, because the wedge-like reflection groove is configured on the bottom surface 22 of light guide plate, so such shown in Fig. 3 B by the light of wedge-like reflection groove reflection, angle accounts for major part at the light below 0 ° in the CCFL vertical plane.Light in addition becomes 0 ° to arrive wedge-like reflection groove 4 behind the lower angle by upper surface 1 reflection of light guide plate.
In addition, as shown in Figure 4, just incide light on the wedge-like reflection groove with the incident angle that satisfies total reflection condition by the light of wedge-like reflection groove 4 reflection, major part in addition continues to propagate in light guide plate by the wedge-like reflection groove.When the bevel angle of the light incident side of wedge-like reflection groove is 45 °, be about 1.5, therefore, stand upright on the vertical line on the above-mentioned inclined-plane relatively owing to constitute the refractive index of the general material of light guide plate, can total reflection with the light of about incident angle incident below 40 °.As shown in Figure 4, just incide bevel angle α and be being reflected on 45 ° the inclined-plane, and substantially vertically penetrate from light guide plate 3 with 0 ° of light that enters in the light in the light guide plate with lower angle from 0 ° of-5 ° of scope angle.Therefore, the angular distribution of light in the CCFL vertical plane that penetrates from light guide plate because of wedge-like reflection groove 4 only becomes and has high-intensity light distribution characteristic at visual direction.
Penetrate light, because of the prism-like jog 6 that is arranged on the light harvesting prism on the exiting surface 21 as shown in Figure 5, from cold cathode fluorescent lamp parallel direction light within the specific limits with the direction refraction that is substantially perpendicular to exiting surface afterwards by light harvesting.On the other hand, with respect to the light of the subvertical angle of exiting surface because of total reflection once more to light guide plate internal reflection recycle.Because this effect, the angular distribution in the plane parallel with cold cathode fluorescent lamp also on perpendicular to the direction of exiting surface by light harvesting, also have light distribution characteristic.Like this, owing to be configured on the light guide plate, the effect of prism-like jog 6 and wedge-like reflection groove 4 does not need the optical element of additional prism plate in addition etc. just to be partial to the direction of vertical exiting surface, can be for vision distributes with suitable luminous intensity distribution to penetrate light.
Fig. 6 A and Fig. 6 B illustrate from the analog result of the angular distribution of this light guide plate ejaculation.Fig. 6 A is the mode chart of light intensity angular distribution, and Fig. 6 B is the mode chart of angular orientation.Perpendicular to the direction in the CCFL parallel surface of light guide plate and perpendicular to the both direction of the direction in the CCF face of CCFL axle, perpendicular to 0 ° of the exiting surface direction, promptly visual direction illustrates peak strength for the axle that comprises cold cathode lamp 1.Especially, as the effect of prism-like jog, the light in the cold-cathode tube vertical plane illustrates kurtosis at 0 °.The both direction of the direction in direction in the CCFL parallel surface and the CCFL vertical plane, initial point, i.e. 0 ° of direction that is perpendicular to exiting surface 21.
In order from the whole surface of light guide plate, to draw light equably,, the probability on the reflecting surface 24 that incides wedge-like reflection groove 4 is changed along with the change in location in the light guide plate.Backlight for based on present embodiment, should change two aspects of width of the banded disjunction par 5 of the degree of depth of the wedge-like reflection groove 4 shown in Fig. 2 B and disjunction wedge-like reflection groove 4, the homogenising of coming the implementation space by the probability that in light guide plate, changes on the reflecting surface 24 that light incides wedge-like reflection groove 4.If only change wherein either party, the deep processing that will occur making wedge-like reflection groove 4 is to the extremely shallow degree of having only several μ m, and perhaps, the depth-width ratio that makes wedge-like reflection groove 4 is high shape.The result requires the machining precision height of wedge-like groove, causes manufacturing cost to rise.
Below, the incident angle that Fig. 7-Figure 10 illustrates the light percent of pass of light when the inboard of light guide plate 3 is incided above the light guide plate on 21 the prism-like jog 6 distributes.Fig. 7 when being 90 ° according to prism vertex angle β-8, about parallel with the direction of extending with prism-like jog 6, perpendicular to the incident angle in the plane of exiting surface, 20% of the highest percent of pass during just with basic vertical incidence passes through.On the contrary, Fig. 9 when prism vertex angle β is 100 °-10, the highest percent of pass in above-mentioned surpasses 60%, thus as can be known, apex angle ss is big more, and percent of pass is high more.
Because stop the light pass through to be subjected to the reflection on this prism-like jog surface, further change direction, again towards top 21 direction, so finally almost all penetrate by bottom reflecting plate 7 grades by the prism-like jog.But, also lost the good luminous intensity distribution that obtains because of wedge-like reflection groove 4 this moment and distributed.Here, in order to obtain the light that the high only luminous intensity distribution of efficient distributes, must reduce light by 6 reflections of prism-like jog as far as possible.If the apex angle ss of prism-like jog 6 is narrowed down, as described above, the scope of passing through for the incident angle that is parallel to prism-like jog direction narrows down, if less than 100 °, the incident angle zone of passing through is almost constant.Surpass under 100 ° the situation at above-mentioned drift angle, the light that must make the basic vertical direction consistent with the scope of the incident angle that can pass through is towards top.Therefore, the only scope of angle [alpha] on the inclined-plane 24 of wedge-like reflection groove is 40-50 °.

Figure 11-Figure 12 illustrates the back light for liquid crystal display device of embodiments of the invention 2.Figure 11 is above-mentioned skeleton view backlight, and Figure 12 A is the skeleton view of wedge-like reflection groove, and Figure 12 B is the enlarged drawing of A part.In this form of implementation, for the banded disjunction par 5 of disjunction wedge-like reflection groove 4, the light source 1 of distance light guide plate 3 be maximum distance/the narrowest position of the width of disjunction par 5 on, its width is 10 μ m.The width of par 15 between the groove that the wedge-like reflection groove is 4 also is 10 μ m in the narrowest place.In addition, the par is the top that benchmark is positioned at the disjunction par of disjunction wedge-like reflection groove with bottom surface 22 between the groove between the wedge-like reflection groove, that is to say, approaches top 21 position.Relevant its reason will be utilized Figure 13 A, Figure 13 B, and Figure 14 A, Figure 14 B elaborates.
Other basic comprising is identical with form of implementation 1, the above-mentioned cold cathode lamp 1 that possesses as light source, catoptron 2, light guide plate 3 and backside reflection plate 7 backlight.Light guide plate 3 possesses wedge-like reflection groove 4, the banded par 5 of disjunction wedge-like reflection groove and prism-like jog 6.With form of implementation 1 in the same manner because wedge-like reflection groove and prism-like jog can obtain penetrating from light guide plate with suitable light distribution characteristic the effect of light.
When producing the light guide plate that has as the wedge-like reflection groove of light guide plate 3 of the present invention, in most cases, use mould to produce a large amount of by the plastic-blasting moulding.When making mold for forming, as Figure 13 A, Figure 13 B, Figure 14 A shown in Figure 14 B, can utilize the material of adamas planing tool 31/32 cutting NiP etc., the method for the mould of processing wedge-like reflection groove 4 and prism-like jog 6.At this moment, for example,, be suitable shape, just can make correct processing more easy by making adamas planing tool 31/32 for the inclined-plane of wedge-like reflection groove.The par is such formation between the groove between the wedge-like reflection groove: make adamas planing tool 31/32 front end have to a certain degree flat, cut repeatedly with the spacing below the planing tool flat width.For example, the width of par 15 can be done by a relatively large margin variation corresponding to the position in the light guide plate in order evenly to be penetrated light intensity distributions aspect the space between the groove between the wedge-like reflection groove.Because the processing of the following width of flat of adamas planing tool is impossible, so the par of adamas planing tool must be littler than the width of the par of narrow part.But when the width of par was too small, the flat of planing tool can not correctly be made, it is very difficult that the making of adamas planing tool becomes, and the result adds man-hour in the par to mould, can leave thinner concavo-convexly, this is to cause light diffusing reason, is inappropriate.Because the width minimum of par 15 and banded par 5 is 10 μ m between groove, so the making meeting of adamas planing tool is easier, the result can reduce the correct cost of processing of mould.
With reference to Figure 13 A, 13B, 14A and 14B, during the banded par 35 of (omitting on the mould later on) wedge-like reflection groove 34 on processing mold and this wedge-like reflection groove 34 of disjunction, for example, shown in Figure 13 B, the planing tool 31 of the par that 10 μ m is arranged with inclined-plane with 45 ° and 85 ° and top sweeps away par 45 between cutting wedge-like reflection groove 34 and groove with being parallel to incident end face.Afterwards, change the planing tool 32 of the banded disjunction of processing par 35, and change machine direction or change to and the vertical direction of wedge-like reflection groove 34 bearing of trends, shown in Figure 14 A and Figure 14 B, process disjunction par 35.At this moment, for the processing of wedge-like reflection groove 34 and the processing of disjunction par 35, because the adamas planing tool also changes, and machine direction is conversion also, therefore, the location can be more difficult, and par 45 and banded disjunction par 35 be not on one side between the groove between the wedge-like reflection groove, and the possibility that produces step is very big., if produce step, then the light ejaculation characteristic generation of reflecting light guide plate because of light leak and light from stage portion has a strong impact on.
When Mould Machining, when deeper processing disjunction par 5, thereby under the more shallow situation in disjunction par on the actual light guide plate, as shown in figure 15, step is configured on the vertical direction of incident end 20 of relative light guide plate.On the other hand, deeper process under the situation of par 15 between the groove between the wedge-like reflection groove, thereby on the light guide plate of reality between groove under the more shallow situation in par, as shown in figure 16, step is configured to the direction parallel with respect to the incident end face 20 of light guide plate.In light guide plate, when propagating as if the relative incident end face of consideration light, in Mould Machining, disjunction par 5 should process deeplyer, makes step up dispose along the side perpendicular to incident end face 20, reduces the influence of step.Therefore, as the shape of light guide plate, owing to adopt par 15 between groove is positioned on the darker position, score par 5, therefore, the influence that step produces is less, and is more easy with low precision processing, can process the mould of the good light guide plate of characteristic.
