Description

Be applied to the backlight assembly of display with double faces
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of backlight assembly that is applied to display with double faces, particularly relate to a kind of backlight assembly with simplified structure.
Background technology
Along with lcd technology is showing improvement or progress day by day, display panels has been widely used on the consumption electronic products such as digital camera, personal digital assistant (PDA), mobile phone and thin plane TV.Wherein backlight assembly be LCD key part and component one, be located at the back side of a display panels, in order to provide display panels required light source.
Generally speaking, backlight assembly generally includes the many cathode fluorescent tubes that are arranged in parallel (CCFL), and cooperates the combination of various optical modules (as diffuser plate, prism etc.), so that display panels high brightness and uniform light source to be provided.Wherein cathode fluorescent tube needs voltage changer (inverter) to supply with High AC voltage, yet because voltage changer can't provide the required driving voltage of cathode fluorescent tube of many parallel connections simultaneously, otherwise the capacity of the stable electric capacity (ballast) in the voltage changer can be unstable, cause the cathode fluorescent tube brightness disproportionation, therefore each root cathode fluorescent tube need utilize independently lead to be electrically connected to different voltage changers respectively to drive basically, and this restriction causes the difficulty of casing design with the intraware configuration of LCD.For the themselves one-sided displays that only has single display panels, though the lead of above-mentioned each cathode fluorescent tube is numerous, yet because themselves one-sided displays only need provide the Presentation Function of single direction, therefore lead and voltage changer can be arranged at reflecting plate or the back of the body frame rear of backlight assembly with respect to the other direction of display panels, and are unlikely the lighting function that influences backlight assembly.
Yet along with the release of display with double faces, the lead problem of above-mentioned cathode fluorescent tube promptly can't solve easily and cause casing to design the difficulty that disposes with intraware.Display with double faces is made up of two parallel display panels, and utilization is arranged at the light source performance display effect that the backlight assembly between the display panels provides, therefore the backlight assembly that applies to display with double faces is necessary for open state in the face of two faces of display panels, and can't be provided with reflecting plate.The lead of cathode fluorescent tube just can't be hidden in the rear of reflecting plate in the case, and must design the position that lead is laid under the prerequisite of the lighting function that does not influence backlight assembly in addition.For instance, lead is laid in the position between the backlight assembly outside and the LCD casing usually, to avoid covering the light source that backlight assembly produces.But the space of above-mentioned position is limited, and just is provided with other necessary assembly of LCD originally, as the control circuit of display panels.Except that this,, difficulty and cost in the configuration of display with double faces intraware have therefore also been increased because each root cathode fluorescent tube needs independently voltage changer.
With reference to figure 1 and Fig. 2, Fig. 1 is known one vertical view that is applied to the backlight assembly 10 of display with double faces, and Fig. 2 is the diagrammatic cross-section of backlight assembly 10 shown in Figure 1.As Fig. 1 and shown in Figure 2, backlight assembly 10 is arranged between the two parallel display panels 20, in order to provide display panels 20 required light source.Backlight assembly 10 comprises a framework 12, and many cathode fluorescent tubes that are arranged in parallel 14, be fixed on the framework 12, and each root cathode fluorescent tube 14 comprises that all two expose to electrode 14A and the 14B outside the framework 12.In addition, backlight assembly 10 also comprises and cathode fluorescent tube 14 the same number of voltage changers 16, in order to convert DC voltage to High AC voltage, and each voltage changer 16 utilizes two power lead 16A and 16B to be electrically connected with 14B with two electrode 14A of corresponding cathode fluorescent tube 14 respectively, for the suitable driving voltage of cathode fluorescent tube 14 that should be corresponding.In addition, backlight assembly 10 generally includes two diffuser plates 18 and is arranged at respectively between cathode fluorescent tube 14 and two display panels 20, with the light source of scattering cathode fluorescent tube 14 emissions.
From the above, increase along with cathode fluorescent tube 14 numbers, known backlit assembly 10 must be provided with the voltage changer 16 of similar number so that suitable driving voltage to be provided, yet the increase of LCD cost is not only meaned in the increase of voltage changer 16, and in casing design, also must arrange the spatial accommodation of voltage changer 16 and the configuration of power lead 16A and 16B, and can't meet now requirement compact LCD.Except that this,, therefore be easy to generate the normal operation that Electromagnetic Interference influences LCD because voltage changer 16 belongs to high frequency assembly.
Therefore for display with double faces, can make in the casing design bigger space will be arranged if can reduce the number of voltage changer, to cater on the market demand, simultaneously and can effectively reduce cost to compact LCD.
Summary of the invention
Fundamental purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of backlight assembly with simplified structure, to solve known application in the shortcoming of the backlight assembly of display with double faces.
First preferred embodiment of the present invention, disclose a kind of backlight assembly that is applied to comprise the display with double faces of two parallel display panels, this backlight assembly comprises a plurality of external electrode fluorescent lamp pipes (externalelectrode fluorescent lamp, EEFL), this external electrode fluorescent lamp pipe is arranged between this two display panels, respectively this external electrode fluorescent lamp pipe comprises one first electrode tip and one second electrode tip, and these first electrode tips are electrically connected with parallel way respectively with these second electrode tips.
Second preferred embodiment of the present invention, disclose a kind of backlight assembly that is applied to comprise the display with double faces of two parallel display panels, this backlight assembly comprises a two-sided luminous plane fluorescent fluorescent tube (flatfluorescent lamp), and this plane fluorescent fluorescent tube is located between this two display panels.
Because backlight assembly of the present invention utilizes external electrode fluorescent lamp pipe and plane fluorescent fluorescent tube to replace the light source of cathode fluorescent tube as display with double faces, and above-mentioned fluorescent tube can use single voltage changer to be driven, so can effectively reduce the number of voltage changer and power lead, avoid the difficulty of known application in the display with double faces design.
