As shown in fig. 1, the wide and narrow viewing angle switching display device of the present invention includes a display panel 110 and a backlight module 120 located at the back of the display panel 110. The backlight module 120 includes a back plate 130, and the back plate 130 is fixedly connected to the display panel 110 through a rubber frame 160. The light emitted from the backlight assembly 120 is emitted through the display panel 110, thereby presenting an image to a viewer.
Fig. 2a is a perspective view illustrating a structure of a back panel and a light bar inside a wide and narrow viewing angle switching display device according to a first embodiment of the invention; fig. 2b shows a cross-sectional view of the wide-and-narrow viewing angle switching display device according to the first embodiment of the present invention along the line a-a' in fig. 1.
As shown in fig. 2a, the backlight light-emitting manner of the wide-and-narrow-viewing angle switching display device of the present embodiment is a direct-type light-emitting manner, the back plate 130 is in a groove shape, a plurality of light bars 140 are disposed in the groove, the diffusion plate 150 is located below the display panel 110, and the plastic frame 160 is located between the diffusion plate 150 and the back plate 130 and surrounds the display panel 110. The plurality of light bars 140 are uniformly distributed on the bottom surface of the back plate 130 corresponding to the display area of the display panel 110, the LED lamps 141 in each light bar 140 are arranged at a preset angle, and the plurality of light bars 140 are arranged in parallel on the back plate 130 at the same interval.
The back panel 130 comprises a first area 131 and a second area 132 which are symmetrical, and the light bars 140 are uniformly distributed in the first area 131 and the second area 132 on the bottom surface of the back panel 130, that is, the number of the light bars 140 in the two areas is the same. As shown in fig. 2b, the longitudinal axis of the display panel 110 is taken as a central line, the left area includes a first area 131, the right area includes a second area 132, and the plurality of light bars 140 are arranged in parallel and in parallel at the same interval along the longitudinal direction of the display panel 110, and cover the bottom surface of the back plate 130.
Each light bar 140 includes a plurality of LED lamps 142 inclined in a first direction and a plurality of LED lamps 143 inclined in a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction form a predetermined angle. Referring to fig. 2b, in this embodiment, the light emitting directions of the LED lamps 142 inclined along the first direction are emitted obliquely to the right and upward direction, and the light emitting directions of the LED lamps 143 inclined along the second direction are emitted obliquely to the left and upward direction. The plurality of LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the plurality of LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction may be individually turned on and off.
The wide-narrow viewing angle switching display device of the present embodiment achieves the effect of switching the display modes by controlling the plurality of LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the plurality of LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction to be turned on and off under different conditions by the driving circuit. For example, the wide and narrow viewing angle switching display device of the present embodiment includes two display modes that are switchable. In the first display mode, all the LED lamps 141 in each light bar 140 are turned on, so that the light emitted by each light bar 140 is diffused in different directions; in the second display mode, a portion of the LED lamps 141 in each light bar 140 are turned on, so that light emitted from each light bar 140 is focused toward the center of the display panel 110. The currents flowing through each light bar 140 in the first display mode and the second display mode are set such that the light emitting brightness of each light bar 140 is equal. Preferably, the first display mode is a wide viewing angle display mode, and the second display mode is a narrow viewing angle display mode.
For example, in the wide viewing angle display mode, all the LED lamps 141 of all the light bars 140 in the first area 131 and the second area 132 may be turned on, so that the light emitted from each light bar 140 is dispersed, and in the narrow viewing angle display mode, all the LED lamps 141 of the light bars 140 in the first area 131 and the second area 132 may be turned on by half, for example, the LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction in the first area 131 and the LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction in the second area 132 are turned on, and the other LED lamps are turned off, so that the light emitted from each light bar 140 is converged toward the center of the display panel 110.
The plurality of LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the plurality of LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction may be individually turned on and off. That is, the plurality of LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the plurality of LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction are respectively driven and controlled by two different LEDs. Specifically, the plurality of LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction in each light bar 140 are turned on when receiving the first control current I1, and the plurality of LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction are turned on when receiving the second control current I2. The first control current I1 and the second control current I2 are set to be one-half of rated current in the first display mode, and the first control current I1 and the second control current I2 are set to be rated current in the second display mode.
Then, in the wide viewing angle mode, the LED lamps on both sides of each light bar 140 are turned on, and the LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction respectively receive half of the rated current, while in the narrow viewing angle mode, only one LED lamp of each light bar 140 is turned on, and the LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction respectively receive the rated current, so as to ensure that the total light emitting brightness of the backlight module 120 in the wide viewing angle mode and the narrow viewing angle mode remains unchanged.
The LED lamp in each light bar in this embodiment is tilted in two directions and divides the back plate 130 into left and right two regions, respectively. However, it should be apparent to those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto, and the tilting direction of the LED lamp in each light bar may be set as desired, for example, to be tilted toward three or more directions, and the back panel is divided into regions accordingly, thereby achieving the purpose of wide viewing angle display and narrow viewing angle display. Correspondingly, the magnitude of the control current can also be set according to the proportion of the number of the LED lamps which are turned on and off in the two modes, so that the aim of keeping the display brightness consistent in the different modes is fulfilled.
The wide and narrow visual angle switching display device provided by the invention adopts the direct type backlight, the brightness is higher, the pattern is bright and clear, the backlight light-emitting angle is adjusted by switching the on and off of the LED lamps in different directions, and the wide and narrow visual angle switching effect is achieved. When the display visual angle is switched, the display brightness is controlled by controlling the current flowing through the lamp strip and the number of the turned-on LED lamps, the consistency of the screen brightness is kept when the visual angle is switched, the picture flicker is avoided, the dazzling is avoided, and a good film watching effect can be brought to a user.

As shown in fig. 5a, all the LED lamps in all the light bars 140 in the first area 131 and the second area 132 are turned on, and at this time, in the first display mode, the currents received by the LED lamps 142 inclined in the first direction and the LED lamps 143 inclined in the second direction in all the light bars 140 are both half of the rated current, the light rays are spread to both sides, the display area of the whole display panel 110 has uniform light rays, and the display mode with a wide viewing angle can be realized.
