OR爲上限爲佳。 再者,螢光燈2和底部lbl之距離L1以L120.2R爲 佳,又以設計成滿足L120.4R爲更佳。依此,因反射光 射入至燈之比率變少,故可以更提升亮度效率。但是,在 其關係式中,當左邊之距離L1過大時,因內部厚度D變 大,產生背光之厚度增加等之弊害,故以在LI S 1.OR之 範圍內設計爲佳。 (實施例2 ) 在該實施例中,雖然基本上與實施例1爲相同構成, 但是使用通常之擴散板,並且將螢光燈2和擴散板3之距 離2設計成滿足L22 0.45P-0.5R。具體而言,對於燈直徑 8.0mm,燈間距P = 50mm,距離L2爲1 9_0mm (內部 厚度D= 29.0mm)。驚訝的是若藉由該設計,可知即使不 用使用施予網點印刷等之特殊加工之擴散板,亦與實施例 1相同,可以抑制亮度不均。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a direct type backlight used in a large liquid crystal display or the like. [Prior Art] As a light source used for a liquid crystal display or the like, a linear light source having a small diameter such as a cold cathode fluorescent lamp or an external electrode fluorescent light is mainly used. However, in recent years, backlights using large-diameter hot cathode fluorescent lamps have been developed. The reason is that the amount of light of the hot cathode fluorescent lamp is larger than that of the cold cathode fluorescent lamp or the external electrode fluorescent lamp, so that the number of lamps can be reduced. A backlight of a hot-cathode fluorescent lamp is described in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei 9-146094 (hereinafter referred to as Patent Document 2) and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 6-67 Japanese Patent Publication No. 1 76 (hereinafter referred to as Patent Document 3). In the backlight using such a hot cathode fluorescent lamp, since the amount of light obtained from the lamp is large as described above, it is understood that the light-emitting surface directly above the lamp is likely to be bright. In the part, the light-emitting surface between the lamps is likely to generate a dark portion. Therefore, in order to alleviate the dark portion of the lamp, it is usually designed to reduce the spacing of adjacent lamps. However, it was confirmed that the luminance efficiency of the light-emitting surface was lowered when the distance between adjacent lamps was reduced. As a result of the study by the inventors, it was found that the luminance efficiency of the light-emitting surface was reduced to be absorbed by the emitted light backlight itself, resulting in loss. Further, it is understood that the luminance efficiency caused by the light absorption is lowered when the diameter of the lamp is 6.0 mm or more, which causes a problem. Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. Hei 6-67-169 (Patent Document 2) Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. Hei No. Hei. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a direct-type backlight using a fluorescent lamp having a large diameter and having a high luminous efficiency of a light-emitting surface. In order to achieve the above object, a direct type backlight of the present invention includes a frame having a bottomed opening, a fluorescent lamp having a plurality of diameters R of 6 mm or more disposed inside the frame, and an opening disposed in the frame In the optical member, when the distance between adjacent fluorescent lamps is P (mm), the relationship of P2 3.5R is satisfied. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a direct type backlight reference plane of an embodiment of the present invention will be described. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a direct type backlight of the first embodiment, and Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of the direct type backlight of Fig. 1. The frame of the direct type backlight of this embodiment is constituted by the front frame 1 a and the rear frame 1 b. As the material thereof, a metal such as aluminum or a white plastic such as polycarbonate can be used. In the frame la, a light-emitting portion 1a' which is a light-emitting surface of the backlight is formed to cover the entire body. The rear frame -6 - 200912470 1 b is a frame having a bottomed opening shape having a bottom portion 1 b 1 , a side portion 1 b2 and an opening portion 1 b3. A reflective sheet having high reflectivity is formed on the inner side of the bottom portion 1b1 and the side portion 1b2. Inside the rear frame lb, a plurality of straight tube type fluorescent lamps 2 are arranged in such a manner that the respective tube axes are almost parallel. The fluorescent lamp 2 is a hot cathode fishlight shown in Fig. 3. The gluten is composed of a glass tube 21 made of soft glass and having a diameter R of 6.0 to 20.0 mm. The glass tube 21 is composed of a cylindrical portion 21a and an illumination stem portion 2'b formed at both ends thereof. Mercury or a rare gas is sealed inside the glass tube 2 1 as a discharge medium. The rare gas may be a monomer or a mixture of argon, helium, neon or the like. The phosphor 22 is coated on the inner circumference of the cylindrical portion 21a. The introduction stems 23a and 23b are sealed in the inside and outside of the fluorescent lamp 2 in the illumination stem portion 21b. In general, the lead-in wires 23a, 23b are each formed by a pair of conductive wires. Filaments 24a and 24b composed of a spiral tungsten wire are connected to the front ends of the lead wires 23a and 23b located in the glass tube 2 1. The filaments 24a and 24b are formed in a spiral shape near the center of the introduction lines 23a and 24b, and a hot electron emitting material (emitter) mainly composed of (BaO, CaO, SrO) is applied to the filaments 24a and 24b. Further, the connection of the filaments 24a, 24b is performed by bending the leading ends of the lead wires 23a, 23b and clamping the ends of the filaments 24a, 2bb. At this time, since the lead wires 23a, 23b of the clamp filaments 2 4 a, 2 4 b have a slightly semi-elliptical shape in a portion having a flat surface, the joint strength by clamping is high. Such a shape can be made by flatly crushing a circular conductive line and the diameter of the lead wires 23a, 23b in the flat surface is preferably 30 to 90% with respect to the diameter before processing. -7- 200912470 In Fig. 1, a diffusing plate 3 as an optical member is disposed in parallel with the opening portion 1b3 of the back frame 1b. The diffusion plate 3 preferably has a transmittance of 50% to 85%. The reason for this is that the unevenness of the light emission can be reduced, and the efficiency is not lowered too much. Here, in the present embodiment, the brightness of the stripe-like light generated on the light-emitting surface is suppressed by suppressing the arrangement of the fluorescent lamp 2. For the purpose of 'reducing the brightness difference of the light-emitting surface near the center of the fluorescent lamp 2 and the vicinity of the adjacent lamp. The first means is a method of arranging a plurality of fluorescent lamps 2. Most of the fluorescent lamps 2 are arranged such that the relationship between the diameter R (mm) of the lamp and the distance between adjacent lamps is P (mm) satisfies P23.5R. Further, the relationship between the bottom portion lbl (reflecting surface) of the rear frame 1B and the fluorescent lamp 2 as LI (mm) is LI 3 0.2R. According to such a configuration method, even if a large-diameter lamp having a diameter R of 6.0 mm or more is used, the loss due to light incident on the lamp can be reduced, and the luminance efficiency of the backlight can be improved. The second means is to apply the diffusion plate 3 which is printed on the dot along the lamp shaft of the fluorescent lamp 2. The diffusing plate 3 is formed so as to gradually decrease the size of the halftone dots toward the center between the lamps, and by adjusting the amount of output light from directly above the lamp to between the lamps, unevenness in brightness can be further suppressed. Further, an optical sheet may be disposed above the diffusion plate 3. One or a plurality of diffusion sheets, ruthenium sheets, polarizing sheets, and the like can be used as the optical sheet for the purpose of blending. Hereinafter, the specific specifications of the backlight according to the embodiment of the present invention are shown in the specification-8-200912470 (Embodiment 1). Backlight: size 32 吋 (about 760 mm x about 440 mm), effective light-emitting area = 700 mm x 400 mm, internal thickness D = 20.0 mm Light 2: hot cathode fluorescent lamp, inner diameter = 6_9mm, diameter R = 8.0mm, lamp current = 70mA, number of use = 8, lamp spacing p = 50.0mm, fluorescent lamp 2 and bottom of the rear frame lb lbl The distance Ll = 2.0 mm, the distance from the diffusion plate 3 L2 = 10_0 mm, and the distance from the side portion lb2 L3 = 20.0 mm. Diffuser 3: Transmittance = 60%, the portion directly above the fluorescent lamp 2 is applied to the dot printing optical sheet: the diffusion sheet is shown in Fig. 4 for the fluorescent lamp having a different diameter R to change the lamp power. A graph of the relative change in lamp efficiency. Here, the diameter R = 3.0 mm is a cold cathode camping lamp, and the diameter R = 6.0 to 15.5 mm is hot cathode fluorescent. Further, the relative lamp efficiency is based on the lamp efficiency (im/W) of the cold cathode fluorescent lamp unit of 6.0 W lighting diameter R = 3.0 mm. As can be seen from the graph, the relative lamp efficiency does not vary greatly depending on the diameter of the lamp R = 6.0 mm and 8_0 mm. However, when the diameter is larger than this, the relative lamp efficiency tends to be high. It is about 20% at R = 1 0. 〇mm and about 30% at R = 15.5mm, both of which increase. Further, when the diameter R of the lamp becomes large, the power that can be input also becomes large. That is, the amount of light obtained from each lamp becomes larger than that of a lamp having a diameter of R = 3.0 mm, which is approximately twice as large as that of a lamp of -9-200912470 R = 6.0 mm, and approximately at R = 8.0 mm. 2, about 3_0 times when R=10.0mm, about 4 light quantity at R=15.5mm. Because, if a headlight with a diameter of R is used, it is possible to logically reduce the number of lamps and achieve backlighting of brightness. However, as a result of the test by the inventors, it has been found that when the diameter R fluorescent lamp 2 is used, the luminance efficiency of the backlight is remarkably low. The following is considered. The light emitted from the fluorescent lamp 2 can be substantially as shown in Fig. 5, the light X reflected at the bottom 1 b 1 (reflecting surface), and the light Y reflected in the diffusion, not in the reflected light Z 3 types. Further, X can be divided into light X2 which is incident on the bottom portion 1 b 1 and which is incident on the fluorescent lamp 2 itself through the light of the diffusing plate 3, and is incident on the other fluorescent lamp 2 X3. Further, the light Z can be divided into the light Z2 which directly reaches the diffusing plate 3 and transmits the light Z1 directly into the other fluorescent lamp 2. In the light X to Z, the lights XI, Y1, and Z1 are light as a backlight. Further, the light X3 'Y2, Y3, Z2 incident on the fluorescent lamp 2 itself or other fluorescent lamps 2 is a loss. Therefore, the light is greatly reduced. The light X2, X3, Y2, Y3, and Z2 are incident on the fluorescent lamp 2, and the light of the other fluorescent lamp 2 is most affected by the diameter R of the lamp. That is, in the cathode fluorescent lamp, since the light incident rate to the lamp is low, the light X2, X3, Y3, and Z2 are small, but in the hot cathode fluorescent lamp, the light X2, Y2, Y3, and Z2 become large. As a result of the test by the inventors, it has been found that when the diameter R of the firefly 2 is 6.0 mm or more, the amount of light X2, X3, Y2, and Y3 increases, which causes a decrease in efficiency. .5 times double to delete. The board 3, the light XI - the light is used to reduce the light X2, Χ3 by using X2, less for the body or in the cold, Y2 X3, light, Z2-10-200912470 using such a large diameter fluorescent lamp 2. Υ2, Υ3, Ζ 2 'The distance between the lamps Ρ, the distance between the fluorescent lamp 2 and the bottom 1 b 1 L1, and the distance L 2 between the fluorescent lamp 2 and the diffusing plate 3 are important. The lamp pitch p is closely related to the generation of the pupils 3, Y3, and Z2, and the distance L1 is closely related to the generation of the light X2. The distance L 2 is closely related to the generation of the pupil 2 . Here, a test is performed in which the diameter R of each of the fluorescent lamps 2 is changed by the lamp pitch ρ or the like. Fig. 6 is a graph showing changes in the luminous efficiency with respect to the panel surface when the lamp pitch ρ is changed for a fluorescent lamp having a different diameter R. In this test, a lamp having a number equal to the number 値 obtained by removing the internal dimensions of the frame of the backlight of 3 2 吋 from the lamp pitch is performed. That is, when the distance between the lamps is selected to be 40 mm, 10 pieces are arranged, when 50 mm is selected, 8 pieces are arranged, and when 8 mm is selected, 5 pieces of lamps are arranged to perform the test. Here, the relative surface brightness efficiency is such that a cold cathode fluorescent lamp having a diameter of R = 3.0 mm is arranged in a 32 吋 backlight with a lamp pitch of P = 20 mm and a number of lamps of 20, and the lamps are illuminated at 6.0 W. The board brightness efficiency (cd/W) obtained is the benchmark. As can be seen from the graph, in all the lamps, the lamp pitch P is increased, and the relative plate surface luminance efficiency is improved. However, it is also known that in a lamp having a diameter R of more than 6.0 mm, there is a case where the relative plate surface luminance efficiency is lower than 100% by the lamp pitch P. The relative brightness of the board is less than 1 〇 〇 %, which means that it is used in a state where the brightness is inefficient. Therefore, in order to achieve a high-brightness backlight, it is necessary to use at least a condition that the relative panel surface luminance efficiency exceeds 1%. Therefore, it is necessary to set the lamp pitch P to about 23.0 mm or more when the diameter R = 6.0 mm in Fig. 6, and to set it to -11 - 200912470 to about 280 mm or more when R = 8.0 mm. R = 1 〇. When 〇mm, it must be set to about 37.0mm or more, and when R=15.50mm, it must be set to about 55.〇mm or more. If the lamp is configured to meet the P2 3.5R. Also, it is better to increase the brightness efficiency when the P24.5R is satisfied. However, when the relative distance R is excessively increased by the lamp pitch P, the luminance of the backlight is lowered, and the luminance unevenness is increased, so that the upper limit of 13. OR is preferable. Further, the distance L1 between the fluorescent lamp 2 and the bottom portion lb1 is preferably L120.2R, and more preferably designed to satisfy L120.4R. Accordingly, since the ratio of the reflected light to the lamp is reduced, the brightness efficiency can be further improved. However, in the relational expression, when the distance L1 on the left side is too large, since the internal thickness D becomes large, and the thickness of the backlight is increased, etc., it is preferable to design it in the range of LI S 1.OR. (Embodiment 2) In this embodiment, although basically the same configuration as Embodiment 1, a usual diffusion plate is used, and the distance 2 between the fluorescent lamp 2 and the diffusion plate 3 is designed to satisfy L22 0.45P-0.5. R. Specifically, for a lamp diameter of 8.0 mm, a lamp pitch P = 50 mm, and a distance L2 of 1 9_0 mm (internal thickness D = 29.0 mm). Surprisingly, according to this design, it is understood that the unevenness of brightness can be suppressed as in the first embodiment without using a special processing diffusion plate such as dot printing.

並且,上述數式並不限定於燈直徑R= 8.0mm之情形 ,即使在其他直徑R之情形亦成立。第7圖爲表示在直徑 R爲6 . Omm〜1 5.5 mm之燈中抑制亮度不均之時之燈間距P -12 - 200912470 和擴散板之距離L 2之關係的曲線圖。在此,「抑制亮度 不均」是指以目視無法確認亮度不均之狀態,具體而言, 表示燈正上方和燈間之亮度差爲4 0 c d / m m 2以下之時。 由第7圖可知,即使直徑R爲6.0mm、10.〇mm、15.5mm 之時,若滿足L 2 = 0.4 5 P - 0 · 5 R時,燈正上方和燈間之亮 度差則成爲40cd/mm2。因此,即使在直徑R爲6.0mm以 上之時,設計成滿足L2 2 0.45P-0.5R,依此可以抑制亮度 不均。並且,當 L2 2 0.50P-0.5R時,因亮度差成爲 30cd/mm2以下故爲佳。但是,當左邊之距離L2過大時, 因產生背光之內部厚度D變大等之弊害,故以設計成L2 S1.0P-0.5R 爲佳。 並且,在本實施例中,即使在擴散板3上又配置稜鏡 片亦可。此時若滿足L22 0.35P-0.5R時,則取得與實施 例2相等之亮度不均抑制效果。因此,可以同時實現薄型 化。 因此,在第1實施例中,在將直徑R爲6.0 mm以上 之螢光燈2多數配置在後框架lb內部之直下型背光中, 藉由以相鄰之燈之間距P ( m m )滿足P 2 3.5 R之方式配 置螢光燈2,可以實現發光面中之亮度效率高之直下型背 光。此時,當將後框架1 b之底部1 b 1和螢光燈2之距離 設爲L 1 ( m m )之時,則以構成滿足L 1 2 0.2 R之關係, 更具效果。 再者,藉由組合以沿著螢光燈2之方式施予網點印刷 之擴散板3,則可以解除因上述構成容易產生之明暗的條 -13- 200912470 紋’可以實現亮度不均少的直下型背光。另外 對螢光燈2或擴散板3施予特別加工,於將螢 散板3之距離設爲L2(mm)時,藉由設計成 0.45P-0.5R時之關係,可以抑制明暗之條紋, 不均,實現低價之直下型背光。並且,本發明 不限定於上述,即使例如變更成下述般亦可。 螢光燈2即使爲直徑R爲6.0 mm以上之 燈或外面電極螢光燈等亦可。再者,其形狀並 線狀,可以使用 U字型、C字型、W字型等 。但是,彎曲型之螢光燈時之燈間距P針對相 之相鄰直線狀之管部間亦可適用。 作爲用以縮小發光面之亮度差之加工部, 、反射或減少射出至燈之正上方之光的膜或成 螢光燈2或/及擴散板3者亦可。在實施例2中 散板3上又配置稜鏡片亦可。此時,若滿足L2 2 時,則取得與實施例2同等之亮度不均抑制效 亦同時可以實現薄型化。 【圖式簡單說明】 第1圖爲本發明之第1實施例之直下型背 視圖。 第2圖爲沿著A-A線切斷第1圖之直下 面圖。 第3圖爲表示熱陰極螢光燈之構造之縱剖_ ,即使不用 光燈2和擴 :滿足L2 2 並減少亮度 之實施例並 冷陰極螢光 不限定於直 之彎曲光源 同彎曲型燈 即使將遮蔽 型,設置在 ,即使在擴 :0.35P-0.5R 果。因此, 光之分解斜 型背光之剖 面圖。 -14- 200912470 第4圖爲針對直徑R之不同螢光燈,使燈電力變化之 時之相對燈效率之曲線圖。 第5圖爲用以針對使用直徑R大之螢光燈之時之光的 光路徑予以說明之圖式。 第6圖爲表示針對直徑R之不同螢光燈,使燈間距P 變化之時之相對板面亮度效率變化之曲線圖。 第7圖爲表示在直徑R爲6.0〇1111〜15_5111111之燈中, 抑制亮度不均之時之燈間距P和擴散板之距離L2之關係 之曲線圖。 【主要元件符號說明】 1 a :前框架 1 a 1 :出光部 1 b :後框架 1 b 1 :底部 lb2 :側部 1 b 3 :開口部 2 :螢光燈 3 :擴散板 21 :玻璃管 2 1 a :圓筒部 2 1 b :照明莖部 22 :螢光體 2 3 a :導入線 -15- 200912470 2 3 b :導入線 2 4 a :燈絲 2 4 b :燈絲Further, the above formula is not limited to the case where the lamp diameter R = 8.0 mm, and is satisfied even in the case of other diameters R. Fig. 7 is a graph showing the relationship between the lamp pitch P -12 - 200912470 and the distance L 2 of the diffusion plate when the luminance unevenness is suppressed in a lamp having a diameter R of 6. 0 mm to 1 5.5 mm. Here, "suppressing unevenness in brightness" means that the brightness unevenness cannot be confirmed by visual observation, and specifically, when the difference in luminance between the upper side of the lamp and the lamp is 4 0 cd / m m 2 or less. As can be seen from Fig. 7, even when the diameter R is 6.0 mm, 10. 〇 mm, or 15.5 mm, if L 2 = 0.4 5 P - 0 · 5 R is satisfied, the difference in brightness between the lamp directly above and between the lamps becomes 40 cd. /mm2. Therefore, even when the diameter R is 6.0 mm or more, it is designed to satisfy L2 2 0.45P - 0.5R, whereby unevenness in brightness can be suppressed. Further, when L2 2 is 0.50P-0.5R, it is preferable that the luminance difference is 30 cd/mm2 or less. However, when the distance L2 on the left side is too large, it is preferable to design L2 S1.0P-0.5R because of the disadvantage that the internal thickness D of the backlight becomes large. Further, in the present embodiment, even if a sheet is placed on the diffusion plate 3, it may be disposed. In this case, when L22 0.35P-0.5R is satisfied, the brightness unevenness suppression effect equivalent to that of the second embodiment is obtained. Therefore, it is possible to achieve thinning at the same time. Therefore, in the first embodiment, in the direct type backlight in which the fluorescent lamp 2 having a diameter R of 6.0 mm or more is disposed in the direct type backlight of the rear frame lb, P (mm) is satisfied by the distance between adjacent lamps. 2 3.5 R The fluorescent lamp 2 is configured to achieve a direct-lit backlight with high brightness efficiency in the light-emitting surface. At this time, when the distance between the bottom 1 b 1 of the rear frame 1 b and the fluorescent lamp 2 is set to L 1 (m m ), the relationship of satisfying the relationship of L 1 2 0.2 R is more effective. Further, by combining the diffusing plates 3 which are applied to the dot printing along the fluorescent lamp 2, it is possible to release the strips 13-200912470 which are easy to be formed by the above-described configuration, and it is possible to realize a low brightness unevenness. Type backlight. Further, the fluorescent lamp 2 or the diffusing plate 3 is specially processed. When the distance between the diffusing plates 3 is L2 (mm), the relationship between the light and dark can be suppressed by designing the relationship of 0.45P-0.5R. Uneven, low-cost direct backlighting. Further, the present invention is not limited to the above, and may be changed, for example, to the following. The fluorescent lamp 2 can be a lamp having a diameter R of 6.0 mm or more, or an external electrode fluorescent lamp. Further, the shape is linear, and a U-shape, a C-shape, a W-shape, or the like can be used. However, the pitch P of the curved fluorescent lamp can also be applied between the adjacent straight tube portions. As the processing portion for reducing the luminance difference of the light-emitting surface, the film which reflects or emits light directly above the lamp or the fluorescent lamp 2 or/and the diffusion plate 3 may be used. In the second embodiment, the slab may be disposed on the loose plate 3. In this case, when L2 2 is satisfied, the brightness unevenness suppression effect equivalent to that of the second embodiment is obtained, and the thickness can be reduced.

Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the structure of the hot cathode fluorescent lamp, even if the light lamp 2 and the expansion are not required: the embodiment satisfies L2 2 and reduces the brightness, and the cold cathode fluorescent light is not limited to the straight curved light source and the curved type lamp even if Set the shielding type, even if it is expanding: 0.35P-0.5R.
