Description

Back-light device, liquid crystal indicator and back-light device assembly method
Technical field
The present invention relates to comprise back-light device, the liquid crystal indicator that uses this back-light device and the back-light device assembly method of many fluorescent tubes that drive by inverter circuit.
Background technology
In recent years, the giant-screenization along with liquid crystal TV set etc. requires back-lighting also to maximize.In order to adapt to this maximization requirement; And then adapt to requirements such as energy-conservationization, low priceization, through the central portion in fact of long straight tube fluorescent lamp is crooked, make bend pipe fluorescent lamps such as U-shaped or C shape; With replacement straight tube fluorescent lamp in the past, and exploitation is with the back-lighting of this bend pipe fluorescent lamp as light source.
Use under the situation of back-lighting of said bend pipe fluorescent lamp, distribute,, do not become problem very much though produce the temperature difference and the luminance difference of some tube axial directions less than forming than even temperature on 17 inches the screen size.Yet, because the progress of giant-screenization, remove as the high temperature of the lamp electrode part of main pyrotoxin outside the pale of civilizationly, the applied voltage of lamp also increases because of lamp is elongated, and the stray capacitance between the lamp unit that it brings is easy to generate leakage current near making high-voltage section.Again, the power increase of lamp brings inverter power to increase, and increases so be configured in the caloric value of the inverter of lamp electrode part dorsal part.Its result, the axial temperature difference of fluorescent tube becomes big.
Moreover, owing to produce said leakage current, near the tube axial direction high-voltage section, light lamp with the current value of rated current and leakage current sum, this becomes the reason of vertical luminance difference on the fluorescent tube direction of principal axis.Like this, along with the maximization of back-lighting, the trend that exists the axial temperature difference of fluorescent tube, luminance difference to increase, thereby produce the back-lighting uneven luminance.
To this point, also can be even if propose the large-screen liquid crystal display television machine with the back-lighting (for example the referenced patent document 1) of uniform brightness illumination.This back-lighting is put the electrode side and the mispairing of turn of bilge top-cross of bend pipe fluorescent lamp; Positive rear side at the reflection box of the electrode supply side of each fluorescent lamp disposes inverter respectively; Thereby the tube wall temperature difference on fluorescent tube direction of principal axis and the card direction is reduced, and the luminance difference on the card reduce.
Yet; Under the situation of the invention of above-mentioned patent documentation 1 record; The fluorescent tube that large size screen size (for example more than No. 40) requires the length of screen transverse width more than at least 1 times to form; But, be difficult to reach abundant stable supply system because the bending operation productivity ratio of the bend of fluorescent tube is low, the elongated production efficiency reduction that brings of fluorescent tube itself etc.Moreover, need be that mercury etc. for fluorescent tube inside does not produce the cause of inclination with the fluorescent tube horizontal arrangement.
Therefore; Usually adopt patent documentation 2 that kind to be connected in series in recent years fluorescent tube that the length of 2 screen transverse width degree forms and the fluorescent tube type of drive that it is lighted; Utilize this mode; Even if be loaded in the fluorescent tube in the back-lighting of tackling large-screen receiver, its length is no more than more than the needs.Utilize this advantage, can effectively produce large-scale back-light device.

Again, as far as the embodiment of the present invention of the such record of preceding text, also can be shown in figure 12, utilize composition to inverter transformer parallel connection to drive as the fluorescent tube unit 21a of 1 unit with another fluorescent tube unit 21c to 2 fluorescent tubes that will be connected in series.The scope of the power that can export at inverter transformer thus, reduces its number of components as far as possible.
Example as concrete mainly connects into as follows.Shown in Figure 12 (A), at first, comprise 2 inverter transformer 29R at an inverter circuit board 28R.Then; Utilization is recommended switch driven circuit 102R (for example by forming by 2 or 4 transistors such as FET that constitute) by the oscillator signal of oscillating circuit 103R output, and the sense of current of primary coil circulation that makes each transformer is with the constantly variation continuously of said frequency.The power that is input to transformer like this is transformed into the step-up ratio N that meets primary coil that this transformer constitutes and the turn ratio of secondary coil takes advantage of the output voltage that obtains behind the input voltage, apply the High AC voltage of the degree of fluorescent tube generation electric discharge phenomena.
Also comprise phase overturn circuit 101R, so that keep the opposite relation of alternating voltage phase place of these 2 inverter transformer 29R outputs.Particularly; Can consider to constitute respectively the reverse embodiment such as relation that reel of primary coil formation secondary coil separately to the bobbin that is wound on both sides' transformer; But do not have special the qualification, the GND terminal and the HV Terminal of each secondary coil that also can constitute the transformer of same composition is connected to fluorescent tube with HV Terminal reciprocally.
Like this; The High AC voltage with the opposite relation of phase place that the composition that has is exported 2 inverter transformer 29R is supplied with 2 another distolateral electrode 211R of the fluorescent tube unit 21a of 2 pipes that are connected in series respectively through the conducting portion 31L that is in another circuit board 28L, drive the fluorescent tube that U-shaped connects.Meanwhile, constitute the fluorescent tube unit 21c that these 2 High AC voltages are input to another 2 pipes too.As a result, 2 fluorescent tube unit 21a and the 21c that makes 2 pipes that are connected in series is to inverter transformer 29R parallel connection and be driven by it.
Equally, fluorescent tube unit 21b and the 21d that constitutes being connected in series 2 fluorescent tubes also utilizes 2 inverter transformer 29L, on-off circuit 102L and phase overturn circuit 101L etc. and identical composition mentioned above to carry out parallel connection and drives.
Again; Constitute and alternately dispose fluorescent tube unit 21a, c and 21b, the d that drives by inverter transformer 28R, 28L respectively each other; So even number transformer also can keep the screen left and right sides illuminance distribution of each fluorescent tube to length direction less, always and the operator can not perceive fluorescent tube unit configuration direction ground and assemble.
Moreover about the composition of inverter transformer, preceding text are such to inspire its composition, but is specially Figure 12 (B) that kind, is made up of primary coil 29R-1,29L-1 and secondary coil 29R-2,29L-2 respectively.
Again, the above-mentioned composition that can be used for embodiment 1 to embodiment 3 in fact that consists of, the hereinafter example can be used for the embodiment of embodiment 4,5 and 6.

Utilize this composition, also drive the fluorescent tube that drives by inverter transformer 28L and 28R by the root alternate configurations, therefore than such per 2 alternate configurations shown in above-mentioned Figure 12 (A), the easy elimination to the uneven luminance on the screen of fluorescent tube parallel connection direction.In addition; In the assembly process of this back-light device; Can also always not perceive and gather the configuration direction that member holds together fluorescent tube together; And the completion assembling work, the back-light device assembling work that the fluorescent tube of tens long (about 1 meter (m) degree) and bore little (in the diameter about 5 millimeters (mm)) therefore is installed becomes easily.
Again, Figure 13 (B) illustrates the fluorescent tube unit 21a of 2 pipes that are connected in series in the fluorescent tube 21, the embodiment that under the state that 2 pipes of another fluorescent tube unit 21b that will be connected in series equally all are clipped in the middle, disposes and drive.
Equally; Also fluorescent tube 21c to being connected in series equally; Under the state that 2 fluorescent tubes with another fluorescent tube unit 21d all are clipped in the middle, be configured and drive; Also utilize 2 inverter transformer 29R of the opposite High AC voltage of output phase, the driving of under the state that fluorescent tube unit 21a and 21c is parallel with one another, floating (with reference to the connection status of black cloth line) with white fluorescent tube.On the other hand, to fluorescent tube unit 21b and 21d, also utilize from 2 High AC voltages of 2 same inverter transformer 29L outputs and carry out parallel connection driving (with reference to the connection status of ash wiring) with grey fluorescent tube.
Utilize this composition, per 2 alternate configurations also drive the fluorescent tube that is driven by inverter transformer 28L and 28R, and are therefore identical with above-mentioned Figure 12 (A), eliminate easily the uneven luminance on the screen of fluorescent tube parallel connection direction.In addition; In the assembly process of this back-light device; According to the present invention; Can also always not perceive and gather the configuration direction that member holds together fluorescent tube together, and accomplish assembling work, become easily so the back-light device assembling work of the fluorescent tube of tens long (about 1 meter (m) degree) and bore little (in the diameter about 5 millimeters (mm)) is installed.
Moreover; In Figure 12 (A) and Figure 13 (A), (B) illustrated embodiment; Should constitute the inverter transformer 29 of each fluorescent tube unit of parallel connection to try one's best quantity few, but with respect to fluorescent tube quantity and the lengths needed power considering to be connected in series, the rated value of inverter transformer (for example power output etc.) is inadequately the time; Available 2 transformers constitute each inverter transformer; And shown in 12 (C), with its each primary coil and each parallel connection of secondary windings ground to each fluorescent tube unit supply power, thereby the power of supply needs.
Moreover, among the present invention, also can constitute with 1 inverter circuit said many group fluorescent tube unit 21a~d are driven.
Again; Fig. 7 and the example of the composition shown in Figure 10 as embodiment of the invention example; At the outer surface of housing 23 (being the face of opposition side of the face that is provided with of fluorescent tube 21) configuration inverter circuit 28, but it forms the inner surface that also can at least one side or the both sides of these inverter circuits 28L, R be configured in housing 23; At this moment; The inverter circuit 28 that is configured in shell inner surface is through receiving dress with it with each end of fluorescent tube by the lamp socket 6 of example among these figure; Can realize the slimming that display element is overall again, suppress influence again near the uneven luminance that can produce that disposes said inverter circuit board.Again, above-mentioned explanation is replaced as inverter circuit board in the composition example of the circuit board that the fluorescent tube that is connected in series uses, and also can obtain same effect.
As above illustrated; According to the present invention; The fluorescent tube type of drive of circuit even if be connected in series; Owing to do not have and the counting number operation is installed does not switch operation with lamp, also difficult under the situation during fluorescent tube installation exercise etc. dress mistake or fluorescent tube breakage etc. take place, and can reduce or eliminate the back-lighting uneven luminance that the luminance difference of the tube axial direction generation of fluorescent tube causes.
Again,, do not need other thickness, can eliminate the uneven luminance of the back-lighting of big molded dimension with the simple composition that does not need the conducting portion installation exercise because conducting portion (conducting line etc.) is carried out the pattern printing on circuit board.
Again; The conducting portion of the composition that forms makes conducting between the same electrode of gathering the fluorescent tube of gathering in the member; So can drive the luminance difference that is easy to generate because of fluorescent tube unit in the elimination of a plurality of fluorescent tubes unit as many pipes; Especially under situation about driving that 2 fluorescent tubes of conducting are done to float, can bring into play the irregular cancelling capabilities of higher brightness.
Again; Have conducting portion and make the composition of conducting between 2 connecting elements that are installed on the same circuit board; Exist because of the fluorescent tube unit as many pipes drives the luminance difference that is easy to generate so can be configured to mix between a plurality of fluorescent tubes unit, can bring into play the irregular cancelling capabilities of higher brightness.
Again; With the part of conducting portion, be routed in the transformer installing zone on the circuit board, so although must interlock mixed configuration on circuit board from the high-voltage line and the conducting portion of outputs such as transformer; Can not have yet and be in contact with one another or approaching anxiety; According to design, the short circuit phenomenon that can take place, the breakage that electric discharge phenomena cause both can have been avoided between the two, again mixed configuration each other.
