BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a light source unit, and to a light source unit, a backlight unit, and a liquid crystal display device having the same, which can not only improve light efficiency but also realize uniform brightness.
BACKGROUND ART Liquid crystal display devices have tended to be gradually widened due to their light weight, thinness, and low power consumption. Accordingly, the liquid crystal display device is proceeding in the direction of large-sized, thin, and low power consumption in response to the demand of the user.
A general liquid crystal display device includes a thin film transistor including a lower substrate on which a pattern of a gate line, a data line, a pixel electrode, etc. is formed, and an upper substrate on which a pattern of a black matrix, a color filter, etc. are formed are bonded to each other with a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. It includes a liquid crystal display panel.
Unlike the CRT, the liquid crystal display is not a display device that emits light by itself, and thus, a backlight unit including a separate light source is provided on the back of the liquid crystal display panel to provide light for visually representing an image.
The backlight unit is divided into an edge method and a direct method according to the position of the light source.
The edge type backlight unit has a structure in which light from a light source disposed on the side surface is converted into surface light using a light guide plate and provided to the liquid crystal display panel.
The direct backlight unit has a structure in which a plurality of light sources are disposed below the liquid crystal display panel to provide light directly under the liquid crystal display panel.
In general, a direct backlight unit uses a lamp or a light emitting diode as a light source.
Recently, a light emitting diode which is advantageous for low power consumption and thinning is mainly used.
A general direct type backlight unit has a structure in which a plurality of light emitting diodes are arranged directly under a liquid crystal display panel. There is a problem in that a luminance difference occurs between a region where the light emitting diode is disposed and a region where the light emitting diode is not disposed.
The difference in luminance as described above may be improved by forming a lens for diffusing light in each of the light emitting diodes, but the light may be deteriorated due to the loss of light from the light emitting diode due to the lens configuration. There was a limit to improving the car.
In addition, the general direct backlight unit has a problem in that a large number of light emitting diodes should be provided in the unit backlight unit due to the decrease in efficiency of the light emitting diode including the lens.
An object of the present invention is to provide a light source unit, a backlight unit, and a liquid crystal display device having the same, which can not only improve light efficiency but also realize uniform luminance.
Light source unit according to an embodiment of the present invention,
Light emitting chip for emitting light; A fluorescent layer provided on the light emitting chip; And an optical refraction portion having an inverted conical groove structure on the fluorescent layer and refracting light from the light emitting chip laterally.

According to another embodiment of the present invention,
A bottom cover with an upper surface opened; A light emitting chip disposed on the bottom cover to emit light; A plurality of light source units having light refractions; And a liquid crystal display panel disposed on the light source unit.
The liquid crystal display according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention has an inverted cone shape and an optical refraction portion in which a refractive material is formed is provided on the fluorescent layer, thereby improving light efficiency and directing angle by removing a lens as compared to a general light emitting diode. It is possible to improve the luminance difference between the region where the light emitting diode is disposed and the region where the LED is not disposed due to expansion.
In addition, the present invention has an advantage of realizing a slimmer by reducing the distance between the light emitting diode, the diffusion plate and the optical sheet by the extended orientation angle of the light emitting diode, it is possible to reduce the number of light emitting diodes by improving the light efficiency, and to eliminate the lens It has the advantage of reducing the manufacturing cost.
