Detailed Description
The foregoing and other technical matters, features and effects of the present invention will be apparent from the following detailed description of the embodiments, which is to be read in connection with the accompanying drawings. Directional terms as referred to in the following examples, for example: up, down, left, right, front or rear, etc., are simply directions with reference to the drawings. Accordingly, the directional terminology is used for purposes of illustration and is in no way limiting.
Fig. 2A is a schematic partial cross-sectional view of a backlight module according to an embodiment of the invention. Fig. 2B is a schematic top view of the backlight module of fig. 2A, and fig. 2B omits some elements of fig. 2A for convenience of description. As shown in fig. 2A and 2B, a backlight module 10 includes a light guide plate 12, at least one light source 14, an optical film set 16, a back plate 18, a frame 20, and a structure 28. The light guide plate 12 has at least one light incident surface 12a, a light emitting surface 12b and a bottom surface 12c disposed opposite to each other, a side surface 12d opposite to the light incident surface 12a, a side surface 12e and a side surface 12f disposed opposite to each other, wherein the light incident surface 12a, the side surface 12d, the side surface 12e and the side surface 12f are all connected to the light emitting surface 12b and the bottom surface 12 c. The light source 14 is disposed on the light incident surface 12a and configured to emit a blue light, and the light source 14 may include at least one blue light emitting diode, for example. In other embodiments, the light source 14 may be disposed beside at least one of the side surfaces 12d, 12e, and 12f, but the invention is not limited thereto. The optical film set 16 is stacked on the light emitting surface 12b of the light guide plate 12, and the optical film set 16 at least includes a color conversion sheet 16a capable of converting blue light into white light. The color conversion sheet 16a may be, for example, a quantum dot material sheet contacting and covering the light emitting surface 12 b. The backlight module 10 further includes a reflective sheet 32 disposed between the light guide plate 12 and the back plate 18.
The back plate 18 limits the light guide plate 12, and the rubber frame 20 is disposed on the back plate 18. The frame 20 has a main body 22 abutting against the back plate 18 and an extending portion 24 extending from the main body 22 to above the optical film set 16. The extending portion 24 faces a side of the light guide plate 12, and a groove 24a recessed toward the light guide plate 12 and a protrusion 24b protruding toward the light guide plate 12 are sequentially formed in a direction away from the main body 22, that is, the distance between the protrusion 24b and the main body 22 is greater than that between the groove 24a and the main body 22, and when the groove 24a and the protrusion 24b are formed continuously, the protrusion 24b may form a sidewall of the groove 24 a. The structure 28 is disposed on the optical film set 16 and corresponding to the position of the groove 24a, so that the structure 28 can be accommodated in the groove 24a and has a distance with the wall surface of the groove 24 a. In the embodiment, the main body 22 of the plastic frame 20 can extend out of the extension portion 24 toward a direction P substantially parallel to the light emitting surface 12b and perpendicular to the light incident surface 12a, and the structure 28 can contact the optical film set 16, for example, can be attached to the uppermost optical film 16b of the optical film set 16. In the embodiment, the structure 28 is disposed on the optical film set 16 adjacent to the light incident surface 12a, for example, but the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, structures 28 may also be disposed on optical film stack 16 adjacent side 12d, for example. In addition, in other embodiments, the main body 22 of the plastic frame 20 may extend out of the extending portion 24 in a direction R substantially parallel to the light emitting surface 12b and the light incident surface 12a, and the structure 28 may be disposed on the optical film set 16 adjacent to at least one of the side surfaces 12e and 12f, or the structure 28 may be disposed on the upper end of the optical film set 16 adjacent to the light incident surface 12a, the side surfaces 12d, 12e and 12f at the same time, depending on the needs of the user.
By the design of the protruding structure 24b in cooperation with the structure 28 disposed on the optical film set 16, the probability of light entering the frame region a of the backlight module 10 from the edge can be reduced, the light leakage of the backlight module 10 at the narrow frame side can be improved, the reflection frequency of the light at the edge can be increased, and the effect of reducing or avoiding the blue-turning of the edge can be obtained. For example, as shown in fig. 2A, the blue light I1 emitted by the light source 14 can be blocked by the protruding structure 24b and cannot enter the picture area a of the backlight module 10, the blue light I2 emitted by the light source 14 can be reflected by the structure 28 and then reflected by the reflective sheet 32 at the bottom of the light guide plate 12, and then emitted by the light emitting surface 12b, or the blue light I3 reflected by the rubber frame 20 can be reflected by the protruding structure 24b and then reflected by the reflective sheet 32 at the bottom of the light guide plate 12, and then emitted by the light emitting surface 12 b. Therefore, the arrangement of the structures 28 or the protruding structures 24b can increase the reflection times of the light at the edge, so that the blue light repeatedly passes through the color conversion sheet 16a to form a purer white light, thereby obtaining the effects of improving the color conversion efficiency and avoiding the edge bluing.
As shown in fig. 2A, in an embodiment, the protrusion structure 24b has a protrusion end surface M, and the structure 28 has a top surface N, the end surface M of the protrusion structure 24b and the top surface N of the structure 28 may be substantially parallel to the light emitting surface 12b, and a horizontal height of the end surface M (i.e., a height in a direction Q) may be equal to or lower than a horizontal height of the top surface N. When the horizontal height of the end surface M of the protrusion structure 24b is equal to or lower than the horizontal height of the top surface N of the structure 28, the effect of the protrusion structure 24b shielding the edge light leakage can be further ensured. However, the shapes of the protrusion structures 24b and the structures 28 are not limited in the present invention, and the effect of ensuring that the protrusion structures 24b block the edge light leakage can be achieved as long as the horizontal height of the protrusion end points of the protrusion structures 24b is equal to or lower than the horizontal height of the vertexes of the structures 28. In addition, the protruding structure 24b may be made of the same material as the extending portion 24 and formed integrally, or the protruding structure 24b may be made of a gasket or an adhesive tape attached to one end of the extending portion 24. The structure 28 may be, for example, but not limited to, a pad, a gel, a tape, or a film, and the structure 28 may be, for example, an opaque material. Furthermore, the side of the adhesive frame 20 facing the light guide plate 12 may be coated with a silver reflective film or a white reflective film to improve light reflectivity.
As shown in fig. 2B and 3A, in an embodiment, the maximum width of the groove 24a in the direction P parallel to the light emitting surface 12B and perpendicular to the light incident surface 12a is H1, and the maximum width of the structure 28 in the direction P is H2 and satisfies the following relation:
H1≥H2+0.2mm。
as shown in fig. 2B and 3A, in another embodiment, the maximum width of the groove 24a in the direction R parallel to the light emitting surface 12B and the light incident surface 12a is H1, and the maximum width of the structure 28 in the direction R is H2 and satisfies the following relation:
H1≥H2+0.2mm。
furthermore, as shown in fig. 2B and 3B, in an embodiment, the maximum height of the groove 24a in the direction Q perpendicular to the light emitting surface 12B relative to the optical film set 16 is V1, and the maximum height of the structure 28 in the direction Q relative to the optical film set 16 is V2 and satisfies the following relation:
V1≥V2+0.01mm。
as another embodiment shown in fig. 4, the backlight module 30 of fig. 4 is similar to the backlight module 10 of fig. 2A, and the difference is that in the optical film set 36 of the backlight module 30, the color conversion sheet 36a can be attached to the light-emitting surface 12b of the light guide plate 12, and other optical films 36b except the color conversion sheet 36a in the optical film set 36 are not distributed at the front end of the light guide plate 12 adjacent to the light-entering surface 12A, so that the structure 28 can directly contact the color conversion sheet 36a, such as a quantum dot material sheet.
FIG. 5 shows a chart comparing chromaticity values of an embodiment of the present invention with those of a prior art design. The curve of fig. 5 shows the variation trend of the chromaticity factor V 'from the narrow frame at one side of the backlight module to the wide frame at the other side, where the chromaticity factor V' represents a yellow chromaticity when the chromaticity factor V 'is larger, and represents a blue chromaticity when the chromaticity factor V' is smaller. It can be clearly seen from the dotted circle in fig. 5 that the V 'value of the embodiment in fig. 2 in the narrow frame area is significantly greater than the V' value of the conventional design, that is, the chromaticity in the narrow frame of the embodiment in fig. 2 is more yellow, which means that the problem of blue edge in the narrow frame can be effectively improved.
In summary, the embodiments of the present invention have at least one of the following advantages, and through the design of the embodiments, due to the matching of the protruding structure of the extension portion of the rubber frame and the structure disposed on the optical film set, the probability of light entering the image area of the backlight module directly from the edge can be reduced, the number of times of light reflection at the edge can be increased, and the effects of improving color conversion efficiency, reducing light leakage, and improving the edge bluing problem can be obtained.
