Description
본 발명은 백 라이트 광원에 관한 것으로서, 특히 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display)의 백 라이트 광원으로 사용되고 있는 CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) 등의 광원을 LED 및 도광판을 이용하여 제작한 광원으로 대치할 수 있도록 한 LCD의 백 라이트 광원 모듈에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a backlight light source, and in particular, to replace a light source such as a Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp (CCFL), which is used as a backlight light source of a liquid crystal display (LCD), with a light source manufactured by using an LED and a light guide plate. It relates to a backlight light source module of the LCD.
정보 및 통신 산업의 발달에 따라 휴대용 정보처리기기 및 이동통신 단말기의 고성능화가 지속적으로 요구됨에 따라 시스템의 각종 부품의 고성능 및 고급화가 계속적으로 요구되고 있다. 노트북과 같은 중대형 단말기의 모니터는 일반적으로 LCD를 사용하고 있어 뒷면의 백색 백라이트의 광원을 필요로 한다. 이러한 백라이트 광원은 대부분 CCFL과 같은 플라즈마원리의 광원으로 백색을 구현하는데 이러한 광원은 1) 인간의 시감도 특성과 발광 스펙트럼의 차이로 인한 광의 손실, 2) 플라즈마 가스 압력의 변화에 따르는 짧은 수명을 가지며, 3) 프라즈마 방전에 필요한 수 백 V의 고전압의 동작전압, 4) 또 이러한 고전력의 발생에 필요한 인버터를 필요로 하게된다.As the information and communication industry develops, high performance of portable information processing devices and mobile communication terminals is continuously required, and high performance and high quality of various components of the system are continuously required. Monitors of medium and large terminals such as laptops generally use LCDs and require a white backlit light source. Most of these backlight sources have a white light source using a plasma principle such as CCFL. These light sources have a short lifetime due to 1) loss of light due to differences in human visibility and emission spectrum, and 2) changes in plasma gas pressure. 3) A high voltage operating voltage of several hundred volts necessary for plasma discharge, and 4) an inverter required for generating such high power.
또한, CCFL과 같은 플라즈마식 소형 광원 이외에 소형 표시판의 경우 LED 점광원 또는 저휘도의 EL(Electro-Luminescence) 소자를 이용하고 있다. 그러나, 노트북의 경우 배터리의 60-70%를 LCD 백 라이트가 사용하고 있어 LCD에서의 표시면 전체의 휘도 균일성과 저전력화의 개발이 시급하게 요구되고 있다.In addition to the plasma small light source such as CCFL, a small display panel uses an LED point light source or a low luminance EL (Electro-Luminescence) device. However, in the case of notebooks, 60-70% of the batteries are used by LCD backlights, and therefore, there is an urgent need to develop luminance uniformity and lower power of the entire display surface in LCDs.
한편, LED는 반도체 재료를 이용하는 발광소자로서 반도체의 특성인 장수명, 저전력, 소형, 낮은 동작전압, 높은 내구성을 가짐에 따라 각종 정보처리 및 통신기기의 부품으로의 이용이 늘어나고 있으나, 가격의 문제로 LCD등의 광원으로 채용이 되지 않고 있다. 그러나 최근의 백색 LED 기술 개발과 양산에 따른 가격의 하락으로 중대형 백라이트의 광원으로 이용될 것으로 기대되고 있다.On the other hand, LED is a light emitting device using semiconductor materials, and as it has characteristics of long life, low power, small size, low operating voltage and high durability of semiconductors, the use of various information processing and communication equipment parts is increasing, but due to the problem of price It is not adopted as light source such as LCD. However, it is expected to be used as a light source for medium and large-sized backlight due to the recent drop in price due to the development and mass production of white LED technology.
본 발명은 이러한 점을 감안한 것으로, LED와 도광판을 결합하여 저동작전압의 백 라이트 광원을 제작함으로써 인버터 등의 고가 부품을 불필요로 하며, 밧데리의 사용시간을 연장할 수 있도록 한 LCD의 백 라이트 광원 모듈을 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.In view of the above, the present invention combines an LED and a light guide plate to produce a backlight light source having a low operating voltage, thereby eliminating expensive components such as an inverter and extending a battery's use time. The purpose is to provide a module.

이때, 상기 제2 광도광판(30)의 경사면(31)은 비투과성 코팅이 되어 있어 제2 광도광판(30)에 입사된 빛은 경사면(31)에서 도 2의 화살표 방향으로 반사된다.At this time, the inclined surface 31 of the second light guide plate 30 is a non-transparent coating so that the light incident on the second light guide plate 30 is reflected in the direction of the arrow of FIG.
경사면(31)에서 반사된 빛은 렌즈(50)를 통해 제1 광도광판(40)에 수직으로 입사된다.Light reflected from the inclined surface 31 is incident to the first light guide plate 40 through the lens 50.
즉, 상기 제1 광도광판(40)에는 LED 광원(10)에서 발생된 빛이 제2 광도광판(30)에서 분산된 후, 렌즈(50)를 통해 수직으로 입사됨에 따라 제1 광도광판(40)이 LCD 등의 백라이트 기능을 갖게 된다.That is, after the light generated from the LED light source 10 is dispersed in the second light guide plate 30, the first light guide plate 40 is vertically incident through the lens 50, and thus the first light guide plate 40 is applied to the first light guide plate 40. ) Will have a backlight function such as LCD.
도 3은 본 발명의 다른 실시 예의 구현을 위한 제2 광도광판(30)의 구성도를 도시한 것으로, 제2 광도광판(30)의 양측면이 약 65°기울기(바닥면에 대해서는 25°)를 갖도록 형성한 것이다.3 is a block diagram of a second light guide plate 30 for implementing another embodiment of the present invention, wherein both sides of the second light guide plate 30 are inclined at about 65 ° (25 ° with respect to the bottom surface). It is formed to have.
이 경우 제2 광도광판(30)이 65°의 기울기를 가짐에 따라 상기 제2 광도광판(30)에 빛을 제공하는 LED 광원(10) 역시 65° 기울기를 갖고 상기 제2 광도광판(30)에 빛을 제공할 수 있도록 위치되어야 함은 물론이다.In this case, as the second light guide plate 30 has an inclination of 65 °, the LED light source 10 that provides light to the second light guide plate 30 also has a 65 ° inclination and the second light guide plate 30 is inclined. Of course, it should be positioned to provide light to the.
이와 같이 구성되는 실시 예에서는 상기 LED 광원(10)이 구동 PCB(20)에 의해 구동되어 발광하게 되면 발광된 빛은 제2 광도광판(30)으로 입사되어 분산된다.In the exemplary embodiment configured as described above, when the LED light source 10 is driven by the driving PCB 20 to emit light, the emitted light is incident on the second light guide plate 30 and dispersed.
이때, 상기 제2 광도광판(30)의 양측면이 약 65° 기울기를 가지므로 제2 광도광판(30)에 입사된 빛은 제2 광도광판(30) 내에서 일종의 난반사와 같이 산란되어 제2 광도광판(30) 내에 빛이 골고루 분포하게 된다.At this time, since both sides of the second light guide plate 30 have an inclination of about 65 °, the light incident on the second light guide plate 30 is scattered like a kind of diffuse reflection in the second light guide plate 30 and thus the second light. Light is evenly distributed in the light guide plate 30.
