Embodiment
Describe the specific embodiment of the present invention in detail below in conjunction with drawings and Examples.
Figure 1 shows that lighting device 100 according to first embodiment of the invention, it mainly comprises a reflecting plate 102, a diffuser plate 104, six light diffusion parts 106 and is located between this reflecting plate 102 and this diffusion part 104, and six roots of sensation elongate tubular fluorescent tube 108 is located at corresponding light respectively and is spread in the part 106.In more detail, this lighting device has a shell 110, and this shell 110 comprises a pedestal 110a and a housing 110b.This reflecting plate 102 is located at the top of this pedestal 110a, and this diffuser plate 104 then is to be sealed in this housing 110b top.This lighting device 100 can be used as the downward back electro-optical device of LCD.
In traditional lighting device, only has a diffuser plate 104.When lamp tube starting, the light that directly enters diffuser plate 104 will reflect the light that enters diffuser plate 104 with the plate 102 that is reflected to be mixed, and forms the surface light emitting (surface luminance) of this diffuser plate 104 thus.Yet the zone near more apart from fluorescent tube 108 on the diffuser plate 104 (especially fluorescent tube directly over) brightness is the strongest; Otherwise regional luminance far away more apart from fluorescent tube 108 on the diffuser plate 104 weak more (for example centre position of two adjacent fluorescent tubes) forms blanking bar easily, therefore often has the shortcoming of brightness irregularities.
With reference to Fig. 2, feature of the present invention promptly is to provide a plurality of light diffusion parts 106 with disperse light effect, and fluorescent tube 108 is located in this light diffusion part 106, the astigmatic characteristic of utilizing this light diffusion part 106 to have will be scattered on the surface of this diffuser plate 104 and reflecting plate 102 by the light that fluorescent tube 108 sends earlier, wherein reflecting plate 102 can reflex to its lip-deep light this diffuser plate 104 once again, light makes that through these diffuser plate 104 further disperse light the surface light emitting of this diffuser plate 104 is more even more then, improves the aura of this lighting device 100 thus and all spends (illumination uniformity) together.
In more detail, with reference to Fig. 3, this light diffusion part 106 has an inner chamber 106a and an outside surface 106b, and the light that this fluorescent tube 108 is sent is to pass through the outside surface 106b ejaculation that this light spreads part 106 and spreads part from this light from this inner chamber 106a.Preferably, this light diffusion part 106 has a columned profile, and the bore of its inner chamber 106a is slightly larger than the diameter of this fluorescent tube 108.This light diffusion part 106 can comprise a film 112 and a lot of light diffusion particles 114 are distributed in this film 112, and the refractive index of the refractive index of this film 112 and this light diffusion particle 114 is inequality.The particle diameter of this light diffusion particle is 0.00001mm to 0.1mm.The light that sends when fluorescent tube 108 because film 112 is different with light diffusion particle 114 refractive indexes, causes light scatter during by this light diffusion part 106, makes the light dispersion.In addition, the mean refractive index of these light diffusion part 106 integral body is preferably greater than 1.According to Snell ' s Law, when light from a first area (refractive index n 1) establish into a second area (refractive index n 2) time, the relational expression of its angle is n 1Sin θ 1=n 2Sin θ 2, θ wherein 1For the light of incident and first area and and the angle that intersects of the normal of the interface of second area, θ 2Be the light of outgoing (exit) and first area and and the angle that intersects of the normal of the interface of second area.When light was mapped to lower regional of refractive index from the higher zone of refractive index, the angle of beam projecting was bigger than the angle of incident, therefore helped to make light to disperse more.With reference to Fig. 3, light 300 is through after 114 scatterings of light diffusion particle, with various irregular angle (θ 1) penetrate this light diffusion part 106 and with angle θ 2Inject in the atmosphere, because the refractive index of light diffusion part is greater than 1, just greater than the refractive index of atmosphere, so outgoing θ 2Angle will be greater than the angle θ of incident 1, light is disperseed more.
When big more, the effect of disperse light is good more to the thickness of outside surface 106b on the inner chamber 106a surface of this light diffusion part 106, but this light diffusion part still can absorption portion light inevitably, so the too thick meeting of thickness descends the brightness of this lighting device 100.Preferably, in the scope of thickness between 1mm to 100mm of this light diffusion part 106.
Lighting device provided by the present invention can be used in the LCD, as shown in Figure 6.This LCD 600 comprises a display panels 602 (having a liquid crystal layer is arranged between a pair of upper and lower base plate) and is located at this display panels 602 belows in order to show image, a direct-type backlight device 100, in order to illuminate this display panels 602, and one framework 610 combine with this back lighting device 100, thus this liquid crystal panel 602 and this module 100 backlight are combined into this liquid crystal indicator 600.This display panels 602 comprises two printed circuit board (PCB)s (PCB) 604 and 606, in order to see through winding carrying encapsulation (Tape Carrier Package, TCP) 608, will control and drive signal is delivered to this display panels 602.According to one embodiment of the invention, the about 3mm of tube diameter of the downward back electro-optical device of one 16 cun LCD, the center of circle of this fluorescent tube and the vertical range of reflecting plate are 3.5mm, and the center of circle of this fluorescent tube and the vertical range of diffuser plate are 10.6mm, and the center of circle of two adjacent fluorescent tubes is at a distance of 27.
Because the fluorescent tube and the display panels of this lighting device are very close, the electromagnetic wave that electric field produced of this fluorescent tube is easy to disturb the normal signal on the display panels.Therefore, can not be provided with a conductive layer 116 on the outside surface of this light diffusion part 106 according to lighting device of the present invention, cover the electromagnetic wave that electric field produced that is located at the fluorescent tube 108 among this light diffusion part 106 inner chamber 106a thus, to avoid interference the signal of this display panels.In more detail, the electromagnetic wave that produces when fluorescent tube 108 passes light diffusion layer 106 and when desiring to inject atmosphere via this conductive layer, because light diffusion layer is different with the impedance of conductive layer boundary, makes electromagnetic projectile energy be reflected by conductive layer; And the energy that is not reflected by conductive layer can produce relaxation phenomenon during by conductive layer, and again can be different because of its impedance at the conductive layer and the intersection of atmosphere, and produces reflection once again.Preferably, this conductive materials is made by transparent material (for example indium tin oxide (ITO)).With reference to Fig. 4, this conductive layer 116 can form the pattern 116a with site on the outside surface 106b of this light diffusion part 106.Or with reference to Fig. 5, this conductive layer 116 can form the pattern 116b with contiguous network on the outside surface 106b of this light diffusion part 106, this conductive layer roughly can not hinder the light that fluorescent tube sends and penetrated by this light diffusion part outside surface in view of the above, and this conductive layer can avoid interference the signal of this display panels.In addition, this conductive layer 116 is preferably an earth point 118 that is electrically connected at this lighting device.
Though the present invention discloses with previous embodiment; right its is not in order to limiting the present invention, anyly has the knack of this operator, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when can doing various changes and modification, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion as the scope person of defining that look claims.
