Description

Backlight module
Technical field
The invention provides a kind of backlight module (back light module), particularly a kind of backlight module with the light source module (light source unit) of a plurality of detachable (swappable).
Background technology
Backlight module is one of key part and component of lcd products, has been widely used at present on digital camera, personal digital assistant (PDA), satellite navigation system, computer monitor and the flat-surface television.Generally speaking, backlight module all is located at the below of a display panel (display panel), and have a light source and a diffuser plate (diffusing plate), to provide a homodisperse light, relend by the pixel electrode on the control display panel and form suitable image to this display panel.Wherein, backlight module can be according to the position of light source, is divided into light source and produces from (directilluminance) backlight module of the straight-down negative under the display panel or light source near the side-light type the display panel side (edge light) backlight module.And because direct type backlight module is located at light source generator under the display panel, therefore can be applicable to the display panel of higher brightness demand or large-size, for example computer monitor and flat television etc.
Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is the diagrammatic cross-section of a traditional backlight module 10.As shown in Figure 1, backlight module 10 is belows of being located at a display panel 12, and include that at least one light source generator (lightsource generator) 14, one diffuser plate (diffusing plate) 16 is located between light source generator 14 and the display panel 12, a light guide plate (light guide plate, LGP) 18, be located between light source generator 14 and the diffuser plate 16 and a reflecting plate (reflecting sheet) 20 is located at light source generator 14 belows and is fixed on the shell (housing) 22.Wherein, light source generator 14 is to be used to provide a light source to display panel 12, reflecting plate 20 is that the light that is used for light source generator 14 is produced upwards reflects, to increase the utilization rate of light, and then provide a preferred brightness to export, light guide plate 18 be this light source scattering (scatter) of being used for light source generator 14 is produced to diffuser plate 16, diffuser plate 16 can be with the further scattering of light by diffuser plate 16, to provide display panel 12 more homodisperse light.And be located at reflecting plate 20 belows and coat reflecting plate 20 shell 22 on every side, then be to be used for fixing diffuser plate 16, light guide plate 18, reflecting plate 20 and light source generator 14.In addition, the general at least one prism (prism) 24 that above diffuser plate 16, is provided with in addition usually, with the difference of further correction intensity of illumination, the light that display panel 12 is received can have an intensity of illumination distribution uniformly, and prism 24 set quantity and the visual demands of order are changed.
Generally speaking, the light source generator 14 in the backlight module is that (cold cathode fluorescent lamp CCFL) constitute, and respectively this fluorescent tube is to arrange with parallel mode by a cathode fluorescent tube mostly.In order to satisfy the product demand of high brightness, the briliancy (brightness) of the light source generator 14 that is adopted in the above-mentioned backlight module 10 improves day by day with quantity, therefore when operation in case wherein a light source generator 24 break down, then tend to produce the problem of luminance nonuniformity (unbalanced brightness), cause the shadow (light grating) that obviously presents paliform on the display panel 12, that is be commonly called as ooze light (light bleed-through) phenomenon, just must disassemble backlight module 10 maintenance or the replacing with the light source generator 14 that carries out fault this moment, to guarantee the display quality of display panel 12.Yet the dismantlement work of backlight module 10 is rather consuming time, and in the process of this dismounting with maintenance and replacing, the operator needs only careless slightly, often easily because of improper touching causes weighing wounded of light guide plate 18 or reflecting plate 20, and then the display quality of reduction display panel 12.Therefore will how to prevent that a disappearance is to keep display quality here when maintenance and replacing light source generator 14, real is current important topic.
Summary of the invention
Therefore fundamental purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of backlight module (back light module), to solve the problem of above-mentioned traditional backlight module inconvenient maintenance.
In most preferred embodiment of the present invention, this backlight module is to be located at a display panel (display panel) below, and backlight module include a shell (outer housing), a plurality of light source module (light source unit), that is coated on removably within this shell be located at the diffuser plate (diffusing plate) between these a plurality of light source modules and this display panel, at least one prism (prism) and of being located at this diffuser plate surface be located at light guide plate between these a plurality of light source modules and this diffuser plate (light guideplate, LGP).Wherein this diffuser plate be this light source scattering (scatter) of being used for light source generator is produced to this display panel, this light guide plate then is to be used for this light source that this light source generator produces is scattered to this diffuser plate.In addition, respectively this light source module all includes at least one light source generator (light source generator), that is used to provide a light source and is located at this light source generator below, is located at this reflecting plate below and coats inner casing (inner housing) around this reflecting plate in order to the reflecting plate (reflecting sheet) and that this light source is upwards reflexed to this display panel.
Since this backlight module of the present invention be adopt a plurality of independently of one another and coat this light source module within this shell in the mode of detachable (swappable), and be respectively equipped with interactional one first locating device and one second locating device on the interior diapire of an exterior bottom wall of this inner casing and this shell, therefore when this light source generator of arbitrary this light source module breaks down, can extract this light source module 54 that comprises out of order this light source generator out repair or replace work very easily.In addition, this design can avoid the operator to cause weighing wounded of this light guide plate or this reflecting plate because of improper touching, so can guarantee that the display quality of this display panel is not affected, and keeps competitiveness of product when maintenance and this light source generator of replacing.
