Description
【技术领域】
本发明是有关于一种液晶显示技术,特别是有关于一种用于液晶显示器,可实现区域调光(Local Dimming)并且散热良好的改良式背光模块。
【背景技术】
现今液晶显示器已成为显示技术的主流,广泛应用于各种电子产品,诸如行动电话、个人数字助理(PDA)、数字相机、计算机屏幕或笔记型计算机屏幕等等。其中背光模块(Backlight Module)为决定液晶显示器显示质量的关键组件之一。一般来说,背光模块使用的照明光源包含电致发光源(Electro Luminance;EL)、发光二极管(Light Emitted Diode;LED)、冷阴极荧光灯(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp;CCFL)等三种。其中LED因其体积小、重量轻以及易于控制等优点而大量使用于小型液晶显示装置。
LED背光模块依照LED光源的配置可分为直下式与侧光式。其中直下式LED背光模块是将LED晶粒均匀配置在液晶面板下作为光源,使背光可以均匀传送到整个屏幕。
图1为习知技术之直下式LED背光模块的应用例示意图。为简明扼要起见,图中省略了若干组件。如图所示,于液晶显示器中,在一液晶玻璃10的下方,有LED数组20所构成的光源,该LED数组20具有呈行列排列的多个LED晶粒201。液晶玻璃10是中间夹有液晶膜的玻璃,应用的层面已经愈来愈广。由于此非本发明的重点,在此不予赘述。
在此种结构中,众多LED晶粒201排列在液晶玻璃10正下方以提供照明光给液晶玻璃10,可轻易实现区域调光。于本例中,液晶玻璃10分为A1~A6、B1~B6、C1~C6、D1~D6等区域。藉由控制各个区域对应的LED,可达成各个区域的区域调光。又,LED模块20可直接将热传递至背板(未图示)达成散热的目的。然而,此种方式所需要的LED晶粒数量繁多,消耗功率大,此外,因为多了一层LED数组20,因此组装后的液晶显示器(未图示),其整体的厚度会较厚。
图2为习知技术之侧光式LED背光模块的应用例示意图。如图所示,是在液晶玻璃11的两个长侧边分别设置LED灯条22、24。以LED灯条24为例,系具有若干LED晶粒241。于本例中,LED灯条22是用来控制液晶玻璃11的区域A1~A6的亮度,而LED灯条24是用来控制液晶玻璃11的区域B1~B6。侧光式LED背光模块所需要的LED晶粒数量较少,但是,在此种结构中,LED灯条22、24所产生的热需要藉由金属基板(例如铝基板把热传导至背板以散热,散热的实现较为麻烦而且效果较差。甚且,各个区域的分区调光彼此容易造成干扰。
故,有必要提供一种改良的背光模块,以解决现有技术所存在的问题。
【发明内容】
本发明的主要目的在于提供一种背光模块,其能以有限的功率消耗达到提供照明的目的,并具有良好的散热效果。
本发明的另一目的在于提供一种液晶显示器,其具有一背光模块,能以有限的功率消耗达到提供照明的目的,并具有良好的散热效果。
为达成本发明的前述目的,提供一种背光模块。所述背光模块包含:一导光板,具有一沟道形成于底部;以及复数条光源,设置于该导光板底下对应该沟道的位置,该等光源所发出的光进入该导光板并从该导光板出光。
为达本发明的另一目的,提供一种液晶显示器,包含有一液晶面板,一背板,以及用于提供该液晶面板照明的背光模块,该背光模块是设置在该背板上,其特征在于:所述背光模块包含:一导光板,具有一沟道形成于底部;以及复数条光源,设置于该背板上,位于该导光板底下对应该沟道的位置,该等光源所发出的光进入该导光板并从该导光板出光。
根据本发明,所述导光板的沟道较佳是形成在底部中间,纵切导光板而将之分成两半。所述沟道的截面较佳为圆弧形,其圆弧曲率的设定是与光源的设置互相配合。
根据本发明,所述光源可包含两条LED灯条,各自负责一半导光板的明暗。所述两条LED灯条可并排设置,或是以一倾斜角度彼此相背倾斜设置。
根据本发明,较佳而言,可利用第一隔离片将所述两条LED相互隔离。
又,对应于所述第一隔离片,可在导光板中设置第二隔离片将导光板的两半相互隔开。此外,可于导光板在沟道对应的出光面上形成网点,以避免因为有沟道而产生亮带。
为让本发明的上述内容能更明显易懂,下文特举较佳实施例,并配合所附图式,作详细说明如下:

【具体实施方式】
为让本发明上述目的、特征及优点更明显易懂,下文特举本发明较佳实施例,并配合附图,作详细说明如下。再者,本发明所提到的方向用语,例如「上」、「下」、「前」、「后」、「左」、「右」、「内」、「外」、「侧」、「底」、「顶」等,仅是参考附加图式的方向。因此,使用的方向用语是用以说明及理解本发明,而非用以限制本发明。
一般来说,液晶显示器至少包含液晶面板(如液晶玻璃)与背光模块,其中背光模块是用于提供液晶面板照明。背光模块通常包含光源、导光板以及其它光学膜片,诸如反射片、扩散片、偏光板等等。导光板一般为透光材质,例如光学压克力,用途是使得来自光源的光均匀散布到液晶显示器的显示面板。前述结构可设置于液晶显示器的一背板上。本发明主要是藉由设计导光板的特殊几何构造,搭配光源的特殊设置,以达成可区域调光同时易于散热的功效。
请参见图3,该图是本发明第一实施例之背光模块的立体示意图。于本实施例中,是在一导光板(Light Guide Plate;LGP)40的底部中间形成一条沟道41,于本实施例中,该条沟道41是纵切过导光板40,将导光板分成左右两半。复数条(于本实施例中为两条)条状光源32、34设置于该导光板底下对应该沟道41的位置,如图所示,光源是对应该条沟道41而设置在导光板底下,例如直接设置在液晶显示器的背板(未图示)上。该等条状光源32、34可为灯条,例如LED灯条。于本实施例中,该条沟道41的横截面呈圆弧形,如图所示。
根据本发明,光源32是负责导光板40的左半部的照明,而光源34负责导光板40的右半部的照明。光源32与34所发出的光进入导光板40,并从该导光板40均匀出光。于本实施例,光源32与光源34为并排设置,如图所示。由于光源32、34是设置在液晶显示器的背板70上,位于导光板40的下方,所产生的热可以直接传递至背板70疏散,达到良好的散热效果。
根据本发明,光源虽然是设置在导光板40的下方,但因为有导光板40的沟道41的设计,因此不需要像传统直下式背光模块般需要大量的LED晶粒,从而可减少功率消耗。
为了使导光板40的圆弧形沟道41区域的上方不致形成亮带,可以采取数种方式解决此问题。例如,可以在导光板40的圆弧形沟道41区域对应的出光面上形成一些疏密不同的网点,如图所示,网点的是以沟道41为中心而对称分布。网点的设计是用以消除因为圆弧形沟道41的存在所产生的亮带现象。
请参见图4,该图是本发明第二实施例之背光模块的截面示意图。本实施例的背光模块的结构,基本上大致与第一实施例的结构类似。如前所述,光源32是负责导光板40的左半部的照明,而光源34负责导光板40的右半部的照明。与第一实施例不同之处在于,为了使光源32所发出的光尽量不影响到导光板40的右半部,并使光源34所发出的光尽量不影响到导光板40的左半部,根据本实施例,在光源32与光源34之间设置一条第一隔离片52,用于将光源32与光源34彼此隔开以排除相互的干扰。所述第一隔离片52可以采用双面反射片实施。
请参见图5,该图是本发明第三实施例之背光模块的截面示意图。本实施例的背光模块的结构基本上大致与第二实施例的结构类似,不同之处在于,根据本实施例,除了光源32与光源34是以第一隔离片52互相隔开之外,导光板40的左半部与右半部也藉由第二隔离片54隔开。亦即,在导光板40中,对应于该沟道41的位置,设置有第二隔离片54用以将导光板40分隔成不同区域。如图所示,较佳而言,该第二隔离片54是与该第一隔离片52对准。该第二隔离片54同样可以采用双面反射片实施,且可以与该第一隔离片52为相同材质,甚至是一体成形。也就是说,该第一隔离片52和该第二隔离片54可为同一片双面反射片。如此,可以达成左右两半部更好的独立区域调光控制。
为了使背光模块的光学表现更好,同时进一步解决亮带的问题,也可以通过光源32、34的出光角与圆弧形沟道41的圆弧曲率互相配合设计,使亮带的现象减轻。亦即,圆弧形沟道41的圆弧曲率是依据光源32、34的设置而决定,或反过来,依据圆弧形沟道41的圆弧曲率而决定光源32、34的设置方式。
请参见图6,该图是本发明第四实施例之背光模块的截面示意图。本实施例的背光模块的结构基本上大致与第二实施例的结构类似,不同之处在于,根据本实施例,光源32与光源34(亦即灯条32与灯条34)是一倾斜的角度彼此相背设置,用以消除亮带现象。配合光源32与光源34的倾斜角度,圆弧形沟道41的圆弧曲率亦可做些变化,例如在本图所示的例子中,圆弧形沟道41的圆弧曲率相较于先前的实施例为小。
如同先前的实施例,亦可在光源32与光源34之间设置第一隔离片52。同样的,也可在导光板40中设置第二隔离片(未在此图中显示),以对应该第一隔离片52而将导光板40分隔成两半。
通过本发明所设计的背光模块以及使用此种背光模块的液晶显示器,能以有限的功率消耗实现区域调光,各区域相互的影响很小,并且,光源所产生的热可直接传递至液晶显示器的背板,因此散热效果良好。
综上所述,虽然本发明已以较佳实施例揭露如上,但该较佳实施例并非用以限制本发明,该领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与润饰,因此本发明的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
