This type of edgelight surface light source panel generally uses a transparent resin substrate with excellent light transmittance, such as acrylic resin, on one side of which is formed a diffuse reflection layer in the form of fine mesh dots, for example, by screen printing or shot frust. A primary light source such as a fluorescent tube or cold picture tube is placed close to the edge of the panel to form a surface light source panel, and the entire surface light source panel is illuminated as much as possible by the incident light from the second light source. It is assumed that the illumination should be high brightness and uniform.

For this purpose, a diffusion sheet on the illumination surface side and a reflection sheet on the rear side, which are made of a film-like sheet made of milky white polyester resin, are arranged on the transparent resin substrate so as to cover the entire surface of the transparent resin substrate. It is said that it mainly contributes to improving uniformity by suppressing the appearance of the diffused reflection surface and diffusing the diffused reflected light, and to improving brightness by suppressing the loss due to light transmission to the back side with the reflective sheet. .

When using a transparent resin substrate as a reference, one of the diffusion sheets and reflective sheets can be provided on one side of the substrate, for example, when multiple substrates are used as a layer, and the other is the case where both are provided on both surfaces, for example, when using a single substrate. Or, even if it is installed in a laminated form, is there a case where a diffusion sheet is further interposed between the substrates?
This arrangement can be made by integrally bonding to the transparent resin substrate, but generally a double-sided calculus tape is interposed between the transparent resin substrate and these sheets, or the required location is attached using ultrasonic adhesive means. It is known that they are joined in spots.

However, when double-sided adhesive tape is used, it is necessary to use a tape with a narrow width, such as several layers of irises, so that it does not hang on the lighting surface, and at the same time, it does not cause the sheet to shift or twist. It is also necessary to make -

Also, is ultrasonic bonding suitable for mass production?
Due to the spot-like bonding, for example, if this type of bonding is performed on a rectangular transparent resin substrate at 4wA, the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch with the sheet material may occur, especially when using a substrate thinned to about 31cm or less. Due to the heat generation of the -order light source,
For example, the transparent resin substrate may be deformed into a wavy shape due to the use and installation in an automobile or the ambient temperature at the place of use. In addition, in order to prevent this deformation, it would be better to join the sheet at, for example, the two corners on the negative side.In this case, since the sheet is placed on the substrate, there may be minute gaps between the substrate and the sheet. Dust may enter and be electrostatically attracted to the substrate, resulting in a defect, resulting in a decrease in yield.

The illustrated example is as described above, or in the present invention,
For integral bonding, printing ink and resin that can be cured may be used as appropriate, and when using heat, ink with a heat curing agent or thermoplastic or thermosetting resin may be used to achieve the required bonding strength. It may be selected as appropriate in relation to the curing means, and when using ultraviolet rays, electron beam irradiation, etc. as a curing means, selections should be made in accordance with these.

These can be used as sheets or transparent wood when joining. If it is provided on a substrate, it may be necessary to use screen printing, or if it is provided on a bonded substrate or a bonded frame substrate, it may be applied along with screen printing. However, when bonding is performed in a strip that is narrower than the width of the substrate, it is preferable to use screen printing because it is simple.

In addition, if the cured ink or cured resin has a width of about 11 mm to 2 mm, there is generally no problem in performing integral bonding, and if the cured ink or resin has such a narrow width, it will reduce the amount of diffusely reflected light at the edges. Since losses due to suction and the like are extremely small, these materials may be transparent or white, or may be colored with a predetermined pigment.

Integral bonding should be done by attaching it to the outer edge of the transparent resin substrate so as not to interfere with the illumination provided by the diffused reflection layer.In this case, if it is done only at one end, there is a possibility that dust will be attracted as in the conventional example. Therefore, it is better to prevent dust adsorption as much as possible by joining at two opposing ends or at three or all outer peripheral ends.

At this time, the end portion does not necessarily have to be one side or both surfaces of the transparent resin substrate, and may be an end face portion of the transparent resin substrate or may extend thereto, except for the primary light source side of the transparent resin substrate.

Is it possible for the transparent resin substrate to be made of polycarbonate transparent resin in addition to acrylic transparent resin? If possible, the diffusion sheet or reflective sheet should be made of the same resin as the transparent resin substrate. Even if there is an effect of heat generation from the light source or ambient temperature, the effects can be further eliminated by matching the coefficients of thermal expansion. Note that preferable results can also be obtained by using a polycarbonate sheet as the acrylic transparent resin substrate.

It is of course possible to use sheets for diffusion and reflection, which are made of different materials, or even if they are made of the same material but have undergone the necessary processing, and these are set depending on the purpose of diffusion or reflection. It's enough.

Regarding the use of bonded substrates and bonded frame substrates, they are generally thin-walled because they can reliably prevent the formation of gaps between the transparent resin substrate and the sheet, and are useful for reducing the thickness of the entire surface light source panel. For convenience, if the material is 0.31 or less, when heating is used as a curing method, a temperature of about 220°C to 230°C is applied for those made of acrylic resin, and about 80°C for those made of chlorinated resin. There are also advantages in that joining can be achieved relatively easily.

Whether using screen printing, bonded substrates, or bonded frame substrates, it is best to connect as a single unit as possible, especially if there is no or small difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the transparent resin substrate and the sheet. Since the required bonding strength can be secured, the present invention can be implemented without any problem even if the bonding structure is partially interrupted.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it is possible to make the joint width into a narrow band shape, obtain the necessary joint strength, and perform precise joining. The bonding position can be determined by screen printing, or it can be used as a reference for locating the bonding position of the bonding substrate or bonding frame substrate, which greatly reduces complexity, and it is also possible to automate the process. It improves yield and becomes suitable for mass production.

In addition, the transparent resin substrate and the sheet may be joined at the plurality of ends, or the transparent resin substrate may be wrapped around the sheet, and the material that generates heat from the light source and has a different coefficient of thermal expansion may be used. Even when used, the transparent resin substrate is prevented from becoming abnormally deformed due to partial loads, and it is stable for a long period of time even when used internally in other devices such as LCD backlights. Therefore, it is possible to provide a surface light source panel for edge lights that is effective in realizing high-quality lighting.
