Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a backlight unit.
Recently, a liquid crystal display using an LED backlight unit using a light emitting diode (LED) as a light source instead of a fluorescent lamp has been introduced, which can realize high luminance and color reproducibility compared to a conventional fluorescent lamp. It is excellent for displaying video and does not require inverter, which is essential for fluorescent lamps, and shows the advantage that the backlight driving circuit can be simplified.
In general, the backlight unit may be classified into a side light type or a direct light type according to the position of the light source. In the former type, the light emitted from the light emitting diode may be formed by a light guide plate (LGP). The light is incident on one side and refracts the light toward the liquid crystal panel, and the latter direct type supplies light to the front of the liquid crystal panel by directly arranging a light source to the rear of the light guide plate.
1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a conventional backlight unit.
Referring to FIG. 1, in the
Since the
However, the light emitting diode has a problem that the luminance of light incident on the liquid crystal display panel is more non-uniform than that of a conventional fluorescent lamp (CCFL, etc.).
In addition, since all light emitting diodes and fluorescent lamps (CCFL, etc.) are emitted in all directions except for the electrode part, the light incident on the liquid crystal display panel has a problem of low luminance.
In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a backlight unit including a reflector for scattering or diffusing light to make it uniform and preventing light loss.
The light emitting diode provided as a backlight unit is mounted on a circuit board to reduce the thickness of the backlight unit, to form an opening through which the light emitting diode is exposed on the printed circuit board, and the corresponding two sides of the reflector are extended to extend the side reflector. The present invention provides an LED backlight unit capable of increasing reflection efficiency.
In addition, by providing a backlight unit that can provide a high brightness and even uniformity for each application by adjusting the height of the reflector side portion and the diameter of the opening according to the use of the backlight unit.
In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, at least one light emitting diode is mounted on a printed circuit board, the reflecting portion having at least one opening corresponding to the at least one light emitting diode, and the corresponding two sides of the reflecting portion It extends to form a side reflector, and provides a backlight unit including a light guide plate disposed on the reflector.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.
According to the present invention, by applying the reflector to the backlight unit, the light loss of the light emitting diode is prevented from occurring, thereby improving the light efficiency.
