The diffusion plate 6 is disposed on one side of the light emitting direction of the light source array 4, and includes a diffusion plate body 61 and a light guide portion 9, the diffusion plate body 61 is a plate-shaped structure, the plate-shaped structure includes a second light incident surface and a second light emitting surface, which are opposite to each other, the second light incident surface and the second light emitting surface are both planes perpendicular to the light emitting direction, the second light incident surface is disposed close to the light source array 4 relative to the second light emitting surface, that is, the direction from the second light incident surface to the first light emitting surface is the same as the light emitting direction.
The diffusion plate 6 is provided with light guide portions 9 arranged in an array on the second light incident surface, the light guide portions 9 and the light emitting units 42 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence manner, and the arrangement manner is the same as that of the light emitting units 42 in the light source array 4. Referring to fig. 3, the light guide portions 9 are arranged in a row along the first direction, and a pitch between adjacent light guide portions 9 in the same row is equal to a column pitch of the light source array 4. The light guide portions 9 in a plurality of rows are arranged along the second direction, the light guide portions 9 in the same positions of different rows are aligned along the second direction to form a plurality of rows of light guide portions 9, and the distance between adjacent rows in the plurality of rows of light guide portions 9 is equal to the row distance of the light source array 4.
In this embodiment, the light guide portion 9 is a circular truncated cone structure with a first axis as a central axis, and the first axis coincides with a light-emitting central line of the corresponding light-emitting unit 42. Two ends of the light guide portion 9 opposite to the first axis are two circular end surfaces, which are the first light incident surface 10 near the light emitting unit 42 and the first light emitting surface near the diffusion plate body 61. The first light emitting surface is overlapped with the second light incident surface of the diffusion plate body 61, and can be in contact with the first light emitting surface of the adjacent light guide portion 9.

The spacing cavities 8 are limited between the adjacent light guide parts 9.
The light guide portion 9 is a light guide structure, and is configured to enable light rays emitted by the corresponding light emitting unit 42 to enter from the first light incident surface 10 and then to be totally reflected in the light guide portion 9. Total Internal Reflection (TIR) is an optical phenomenon in which when light is emitted from an optically dense medium to an optically sparse medium, the refracted light disappears completely when the incident angle exceeds a certain critical angle, and only the reflected light remains, called total reflection.
In the embodiment of the present application, the light guide portion 9 surrounds the peripheral sidewall of the first axis, i.e. the interface between the optically dense medium and the optically sparse medium, the optically dense medium is inside the light guide portion 9, and the peripheral region of the light guide portion 9 is the optically sparse medium.

That is, when the outer peripheral sidewall of the light guide part 9 forms an angle α of 101.8 ° with respect to the first light incident surface 10, the light emitted from the light emitting unit 42 enters the light guide part 9 from the first light incident surface 10 and is totally reflected.

As can be seen from the above description, with the diffusion plate 6 provided in the embodiment of the present application, by using the light guiding function of the light guiding portion 9, the light emitted by each light emitting unit 42 can be constrained in the light guiding portion 9 for transmission, the light emitted by each light emitting unit 42 realizes accurate light emitting through the light guiding portion 9, and the illumination area of the light emitting unit 42 is accurately controlled, so that each light emitting unit 42 has an independent light emitting area, thereby improving the light mixing problem between the light emitting units 42, realizing image edge brightness control, and improving the contrast of the image edge area. The image edge definition in Local Dimming (Local Dimming) can be improved in the display effect.
The light guide unit 9 and the diffusion plate body 61 may be integrated or separated. Referring to fig. 5, in the light emitting direction, the length of the light guide part 9 is H1, and the length of the diffusion plate body 61 is H2, in a possible embodiment, H1 should not be greater than H2, so as to ensure the strength requirement of the diffusion plate 6.

The glue frame 7 is disposed in an area between the side edges of the light source array 4, the diffusion plate 6, and the optical film 5 and the middle side plate 32 of the back plate 3, and is used for connecting and fixing the light source array 4, the diffusion plate 6, the optical film 5 and the back plate 3, and when being assembled with the liquid crystal display panel 2, the glue frame 7 is also used for connecting with the liquid crystal display panel 2.
