발광다이오드 램프를 이용한 직하 조광형 백라이트 장치{DIRECT LIGHTING TYPE BACKLIGHT UNIT USING LED LAMPS}Direct lighting type backlight unit using light emitting diode lamp {DIRECT LIGHTING TYPE BACKLIGHT UNIT USING LED LAMPS}

본 발명은 발광다이오드 램프를 이용한 백라이트 장치에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 프리즘 형상의 반사체들을 마름모 형태의 공간이 형성되도록 배치한 후 그 공간에 발광다이오드(LED) 램프를 위치시켜 화면의 균일도를 개선한 직하 조광형 백라이트 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a backlight device using a light emitting diode lamp. More particularly, the prism-shaped reflectors are arranged to form a rhombus-shaped space, and then a light emitting diode (LED) lamp is placed in the space to improve the uniformity of the screen. One direct illuminant backlight device is disclosed.

일반적으로, 액정표시장치의 백라이트(Back light)는 광원으로 CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp), HCFL(Hot Cathode Fluorescent Lamp), EEFL(External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp) 등의 형광램프나 LED(Light Emitting Diode)소자, EL(Electro Luminescence)소자 등을 주로 사용하고, 광원이 배치되는 방식에 따라 측면 조광형(Edge-lighting)과 직하 조광형(Direct-lighting) 백라이트로 구분된다. 통상, 측면 조광형 백라이트 장치는 비교적 얇은 두께로 인하여 노트북이나 컴퓨터 모니터용 LCD에 주로 사용되고, 직하 조광형 백라이트 장치는 높은 광효율에 의해 TV 등과 같은 대화면을 목적으로 하는 LCD에 주로 이용된다. In general, a backlight of a liquid crystal display is a light source such as a cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL), a hot cathode fluorescent lamp (HCFL), an external electrode fluorescent lamp (EEFL), or a light emitting diode (LED) device. , EL (Electro Luminescence) devices are mainly used, and are classified into side-lighting and direct-lighting backlights according to the way the light source is arranged. In general, side dimming backlight devices are mainly used in LCDs for notebooks or computer monitors because of their relatively thin thickness, and direct dimming backlight devices are mainly used in LCDs for large screens such as TVs due to high light efficiency.

종래에 발광다이오드(LED) 램프를 이용한 직하 조광형 백라이트(10)는 도 6a에 도시된 바와 같이, 커버 버텀(11)위에 실장되는 LED 램프(12) 어레이, LED 램프 어레이로부터의 빛을 확산시켜 균일도를 향상시키는 확산판(13)으로 구성된다. In the conventional direct-illuminated backlight 10 using a light emitting diode (LED) lamp, as shown in FIG. 6A, the LED lamp 12 is mounted on the cover bottom 11, and uniformity by diffusing light from the LED lamp array. It consists of a diffusion plate 13 to improve the.

그런데 LED 램프(12)는 전방향(全方向)으로 광을 방사하는 형광램프와는 달리 소정의 각도에서만 광을 방사하는 특징이 있어 각도에 따라 정면 조광율이 달라 휘도의 차이로 인해 균일도가 떨어지게 된다. 예컨대, 종래의 발광다이오드(LED) 램프(12)를 이용한 직하 조광형 백라이트(10)에서 일반 확산판(13)을 사용할 경우 도 6b에 도시된 바와 같이, 수직방향의 광에 대해서는 대략 73%의 정면조광이 이루어지고, 15°방향에서는 대략 91%의 정면조광이 이루어지며, 30°방향에서는 대략 73%의 정면 조광이 이루어져 도 6c에 도시된 바와 같이 휘도의 최고치와 최저치 사이의 편차가 크게 나타난다.However, unlike the fluorescent lamp which emits light in all directions, the LED lamp 12 emits light only at a predetermined angle, so that the front dimming rate varies depending on the angle, so that the uniformity is decreased due to the difference in luminance. do. For example, when the general diffuser plate 13 is used in the direct dimming backlight 10 using the conventional LED lamp 12, as shown in FIG. 6B, approximately 73% of the front face is perpendicular to the vertical light. Dimming is performed, approximately 91% front dimming is performed in the 15 ° direction, and approximately 73% front dimming is performed in the 30 ° direction, so that the deviation between the highest value and the lowest value of luminance is large as shown in FIG. 6C.

발광다이오드(LED) 램프를 이용한 종래의 직하 조광형 백라이트 장치는 확산판으로 입사되는 입사광의 각도에 따라 정면 조광율이 달라져 휘도의 차이로 인해 균일도가 떨어지는 문제점이 있다.The conventional direct dimming type backlight device using a light emitting diode (LED) lamp has a problem in that the front dimming ratio is changed according to the angle of incident light incident on the diffuser plate, resulting in inferior uniformity due to the difference in luminance.

It is to provide a direct dimming backlight device that is improved

In the prism pattern is formed a round prism pattern, the prism pattern is a curved surface having a radius of curvature (R) between 50㎛ 100㎛, the vertex angle (θ b ) formed by extending the oblique surface Is a value between 60 ° and 100 °.

It can be seen that approximately 100% front dimming is performed, approximately 100% front dimming is performed for the light in the 15 ° direction, and approximately 100% front dimming is made for the light in the 30 ° direction.
