200916902 九、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係關於一種侧邊入光型背光模組,特別是關於一 種具有發光二極體的側邊入光型背光模組。 【先前技術】 側邊入光型背光模組常被使用於筆記型電腦中。以往側 邊入光型背光模組大多採用冷陰極射線管(CCFL)作為其光 源。但近來發光二極體(LED)有逐漸取代冷陰極射線管的趨 勢。 目前被應用於侧邊入光型背光模組的發光二極體主要以 白光發光二極體為主。白光發光二極體相對於冷陰極射線管 有較高的發光效率,但其色彩飽和度卻不如冷陰極射線管。 通常白光發光二極體係由一藍光LED晶片搭配黃色螢光粉 來造成白光效果,或是由紅、綠、藍三色LED晶片來混成白 光。兩者之中以紅、綠、藍三色LED晶片混成的白光具有較 佳的色彩飽和度。但在溫度上升時,紅、綠、藍三色LED晶 片會產生党度衰減、波長偏移與驅動電壓的變化,其結果造 成売度與色度的偏移。因此紅、綠、藍三色LED晶片必須搭 配色彩控制管理糸統(color control management system, CMS)來維持亮度與色度的穩定。 色控制管理糸統包括一光感應器、一控制板及一電壓 ,。光感應器用以感測紅、綠、藍三色LED晶片所發出之光 量。控制板根據光感應器所測得的光量來控制電壓源,以分 200916902 別對紅、綠、藍三色LED晶片之輸入電壓進行迴饋控制,得 到較佳的白光。因此,如何穩定地透過光感應器讀取正確的 7C度與色度值疋最重要的事。而光感應器的組裝位置及結構 係為影響讀取正確亮度與色度值的關鍵因素。 圖1所示為習知應用發光二極體之侧邊入光型背光模組 的結構。背光模組100包括一白光發光二極體1〇2、一導光 板104、一反射片106及一膠框108,其相對位置如圖丨所示。 液晶面板110具有一可視區W。白光發光二極體1〇2發出之 〇 光線進入導光板104後,可能在導光板104中形成全反射, 或被反射片106反射至液晶面板no的可視區w中。光感應 器120鄰近導光板1〇4之底部的侧邊。如圖所示,反射片1〇6 的侧邊與膠框1〇8間形成一缺口 1〇9。光感應器12〇置於缺 口 109之中,以感測由導光板104端部漏出之光線的亮度與 色度,並產生一對應的訊號,再透過一軟性電路板13()將訊 號傳遞至控制板(未圖示)中。 液晶顯示器漸趨薄型化,但現有光感應器的尺寸.約在 (J 5mm左右,因此若將之應用於較薄的導光板,會無法得到最 佳感光量。另外,導光板會隨濕度、溫度而改變厚度或彎曲, 致使感測距離D隨之變化,因此光感應器感測到的亮度與色 度值將會不穩定’導致色彩控制管理系統進行錯誤的調整。 又’背光模組設計漸趨窄邊化,若光感應器擺放位置不 當,例如:光感應器120置於可視區W内,將會影響可視區 W面積’則畫面可能出現光感應器12〇所產生的黑影,而影 響畫面品質。 200916902 【發明内容】 ,、本發明之目的在於提供一側邊入光型f光模組或-應用 侧邊入光型背賴M之液晶顯賴組,其適當地設置光感應 ° 、、隹持穩疋的感測基準,進而正確地感測光亮度及色产 值,並改善晝面品質。 又 /本發明的其他目的和伽可峨本發明賴露的技術 徵中付到進一步的了解。 一為述之-或部份或全部目的或是其他目的,本發明 之一實施態樣為一侧邊入光型背光模組,包括一膠框具 數邊條,,轉邊條其中之—具有—腔體;—導光板位於膠框 之内’亚且具有—第—入光端面及—出光端面,第-入光端 =應於該等邊條的其中之―’出光端面對應於該等邊條的 之另一,其中出光端面的一部分位於腔體之内部;一第 二發光二極體設於導光板之—側,並面對第—从端面;以 應器埋入腔體中,以感應—來自第—發光二極體且 離開出光端面之光線。 於本發明之-實施態樣中,腔體具有一第—開口及一第 二開口 ; _之出光端面的一部分朝 器設於腔體之第二開口中。 九眺 本發日狀-實鑛樣係為—翻上述之_人光型背光 模組的液晶顯示模組,其更包括一 又负夂射面,接觸腔體之内部; 位於腔體之崎之出麵面的部分面向反射面;埋入腔體中 之光感應器係感應被反射面所反射之光線。 200916902 較佳實施方式如下。腔體具有—凸緣’位於其頂部,並 ,二有感光缺口,位於其底部,並且位於腔體之内部之出 光端面的部分’係位於凸緣與感光缺口之間。膠框之底表面 凹陷部,沿感光缺口之周緣設置,以供放置光感應器 所連接之軟性電路板。 反射面可為-斜面或i面,反射面設成能夠將從出光 端面射出的光線反射至域應器。出光端面與第—入光端面 可設於導光板之相對兩侧。 另可增加-第二發光二極體,與第—發光二極體分別設 置於導光板之姆_。導光板具有—第二人光端面,面對 第二發光二極體。出光端面係鄰接於第—及第二人光端面。 光感應器位於出光端面之中央處,並^與第—及第二入光端 面之距離約為相等。 【實施方式】 有關本發明之前述及其他技術内容、特點與功效,在以 下配合參相式之_較佳魏例轉細制巾’將可清楚的 呈現。以下實施例中所提到的方向用語,例如:上、下、左、 右、前或後等’僅是參相加圖式的方向。因此,使用的方 向用語是用來說明並非用來限制本發明。 *圖2A顯示一液晶顯示模組之侧剖面圖。液晶顯示 模組200由-液晶面板210及一側邊入光型背光模組22〇所 組成。液晶面板210架設於背光模組22〇之上,兩者藉由一 膠框230組裝在-起。請同時參照圖2B及圖%,分別顯示 背光模組220之兩端202、204之結構。背光模組22〇具有一 200916902 導光板224、一設於導光板224之一侧的發光二極體222及 一設於導光板224之下方的反射片226。導光板224不限於 楔形或平板狀。圖2A以楔形導光板224為例,其由左而右 逐漸變薄’左端為一較厚的入光端面224a,而右端則為一較 薄的出光端面224b。 圖2B為導光板224之入光端面224a及發光二極體222 之剖面放大圖。發光二極體222設於一燈座222a上,燈座 222a固定於一底板250之上,底板250與膠框230之組合方 Ο 式如圖2B所示。發光二極體222之光線朝向入光端面224a, 方向如箭號所示。入光端面224a面對發光二極體222.的發光 面,以供光線進入導光板224。進入導光板224的光線大部 为It由全反射作用或被反射片226反射,由導光板224之上 表面射出,再進入液晶面板210。但是少部分光線會由導光 板224之出光端面224b漏出,藉著感測漏出之光線,可得知 光源的亮度及色度。 圖2C顯示膠框230具有一腔體232,以供導光板224 〇 之出光端面224b與一光感應器240埋設於其中。由於腔體 232具有固定出光端面224b與光感應器240之功能,可使光 感應器240與出光端面224b維持一定感光距離,進而使感測 到的亮度及色度值維持穩定。腔體232之内壁包括一反射面 234 ’接觸腔體234之内部’朝向出光端面224b。當光線由 出光端面224b漏出後’籍由反射面234將其反射至光感應 240,光路徑如箭號所示。光感應器24〇直接固定於一軟性電 路板242上。當光感應器240感測到光度、色度或能量後, 將產生一訊號,訊號通過軟性電路板242傳遞至一控制板(未 200916902 圖示)。控制板根據所測得的訊號,分別對紅、藍、綠發光二 極體晶片的輸入電壓作迴饋控制,以得到較佳的白光。"一 圖3A顯示本發明一實施例中腔體232的位置,同時也 扣出光感應器240的較佳組裝位置。膠框23〇具有兩相對的 邊條230a、230b。腔體232設於邊條23〇a之中央位置。當 組合膠框230與導光板224日寺,導光板故之入光端面2二 對應於邊條纖’而&光端面島騎應於其對面之邊條 230a,並固定於腔體232中。因為背離光源之導光板224的 -侧為漏光量最多且混光效果最佳的位置,所以光感應器 240置入腔體232中將具有最佳的感光效果。 一。 圖3B為圖3A之腔體232之放大圖。腔體232之頂部具 有一凸緣236 ’其底部形成一感光缺口 238。凸緣236可固定 導光板224 ’使出光端面224b位於凸、緣236與感光缺口挪 之間’並確定導光板224與光感應器240之距離不變。如此, 光感應器240不會因為導光板224的位移而影響其感光量, 導致背光模組220的亮度與色度產生變化。邊條23〇a可供液 晶面板210置放於其上。 圖4A顯示腔體232之底部與光感應器240之組裝關係。 邊條230a之底表面具有一凹陷部239,沿感光缺口 238之周 緣設置。當光感應器240由下向上埋入感光缺口 238時,凹 陷部239可供容置軟性電路板242,以避免增加背光模組22〇 的整體厚度。 圖4B為圖4A之剖面圖,顯示腔體232之内部結構。除 了感光缺口 238之外,腔體232形成一開口 237,位於凸緣 200916902 236與膠框230之一延伸部235之間,以供導光板224之出 光端面224b伸入腔體232中。反射面234可為一斜面或一曲 面’朝向開口 237及感光缺口 238。 圖4C為圖4B之上視圖,顯示導光板224及反射片226 與腔體232之組裝關係。圖4D顯示增亮膜410置於導光板 224之上。擴散片42〇置放於增亮膜41〇及凸緣236之上表 面’並且擴散片420之一部份更可卡入邊條230a之凹槽231 之中。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a side-in-light type backlight module, and more particularly to a side-in-light type backlight module having a light-emitting diode. [Prior Art] Side-lit backlight modules are often used in notebook computers. In the past, the edge-lit backlight module mostly used a cold cathode ray tube (CCFL) as its light source. Recently, however, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have gradually replaced the trend of cold cathode ray tubes. The light-emitting diodes currently used in the side-lighting type backlight module are mainly white light-emitting diodes. The white light emitting diode has a higher luminous efficiency than the cold cathode ray tube, but its color saturation is inferior to that of a cold cathode ray tube. Generally, a white light emitting diode system is formed by a blue LED chip with a yellow phosphor to cause a white light effect, or a red, green, and blue LED chip to be mixed into white light. Among the two, white light mixed with red, green and blue LED chips has better color saturation. However, when the temperature rises, the red, green, and blue LED chips will produce a change in party attenuation, wavelength shift, and driving voltage, which results in a shift in turbidity and chromaticity. Therefore, red, green, and blue LED chips must be equipped with a color control management system (CMS) to maintain brightness and chromaticity stability. The color control management system includes a light sensor, a control board and a voltage. The light sensor is used to sense the amount of light emitted by the red, green, and blue LED chips. The control board controls the voltage source according to the amount of light measured by the light sensor, and performs feedback control on the input voltages of the red, green and blue LED chips in 200916902 to obtain better white light. Therefore, how to stably read the correct 7C degree and chromaticity value through the light sensor is the most important thing. The assembly position and structure of the light sensor is a key factor affecting the reading of correct brightness and chromaticity values. FIG. 1 shows the structure of a conventional side-lighting type backlight module using a light-emitting diode. The backlight module 100 includes a white light emitting diode 1 2, a light guide plate 104, a reflective sheet 106 and a plastic frame 108, the relative positions of which are shown in FIG. The liquid crystal panel 110 has a visible area W. After the white light emitting diode 1 〇 2 emits light, the light entering the light guide plate 104 may form total reflection in the light guide plate 104 or be reflected by the reflection sheet 106 into the visible region w of the liquid crystal panel no. The light sensor 120 is adjacent to the side of the bottom of the light guide plate 1〇4. As shown in the figure, a gap 1〇9 is formed between the side of the reflecting sheet 1〇6 and the bezel 1〇8. The light sensor 12 is placed in the gap 109 to sense the brightness and chromaticity of the light leaking from the end of the light guide plate 104, and generate a corresponding signal, and then transmit the signal to the flexible circuit board 13 (). In the control panel (not shown). The liquid crystal display is becoming thinner, but the size of the existing light sensor is about (about 5 mm, so if it is applied to a thin light guide plate, the optimal light sensitivity will not be obtained. In addition, the light guide plate will follow the humidity, The temperature changes to the thickness or bend, so that the sensing distance D changes accordingly, so the brightness and chromaticity values sensed by the light sensor will be unstable', resulting in a wrong adjustment of the color control management system. Gradually narrowing the edge, if the position of the light sensor is improperly placed, for example, the light sensor 120 is placed in the visible area W, which will affect the visible area W area, then the black shadow generated by the light sensor 12 may appear on the picture. In addition, the object of the present invention is to provide a side-in-light-type f-light module or a liquid crystal display group to which the side-input type is applied, which is appropriately set. Light sensing, and maintaining a stable sensing reference, thereby correctly sensing the brightness and color value, and improving the quality of the kneading surface. Also / other objects of the present invention and the technical problems of the gamma of the present invention To further One embodiment of the present invention is a side-in-light type backlight module, including a plastic frame with a number of edge strips, and a side strip for describing some or all of the objectives or other purposes. Wherein - having a cavity; - the light guide plate is located in the plastic frame - and has a - first light entrance end and a light exit end face, the first light entrance end = should be in the side of the side strip - the light exit end Corresponding to the other of the side strips, wherein a part of the light-emitting end surface is located inside the cavity; a second light-emitting diode is disposed on the side of the light guide plate and faces the first-peripheral end surface; In the cavity, the light is emitted from the first light-emitting diode and exits the light-emitting end face. In the embodiment of the present invention, the cavity has a first opening and a second opening; The eccentric device is disposed in the second opening of the cavity. The ninth 眺 日 实 实 实 实 实 实 实 实 实 实 实 翻 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人 人a portion of the contact cavity; a portion of the surface of the cavity facing the surface of the cavity facing the reflective surface; The light sensor entering the cavity senses the light reflected by the reflective surface. The preferred embodiment is as follows: The cavity has a flange at the top, and two have a photosensitive gap at the bottom and are located in the cavity. The portion of the light-emitting end surface of the body is located between the flange and the photosensitive notch. The bottom surface of the plastic frame is recessed along the periphery of the photosensitive notch for placing the flexible circuit board to which the light sensor is connected. The reflecting surface is configured to reflect the light emitted from the light-emitting end surface to the domain device. The light-emitting end surface and the first light-incident end surface may be disposed on opposite sides of the light guide plate. The diode body and the first light-emitting diode are respectively disposed on the light guide plate. The light guide plate has a second human light end face facing the second light-emitting diode. The light-emitting end face is adjacent to the first and second persons. Light end face. The light sensor is located at the center of the light exit end face and is approximately equal to the first and second light incident end faces. [Embodiment] The foregoing and other technical contents, features, and effects of the present invention will be apparently described below in conjunction with a parametric phase. The directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, for example, up, down, left, right, front or back, etc., are merely directions in which the reference is added. Therefore, the terminology used is used to describe that it is not intended to limit the invention. * Figure 2A shows a side cross-sectional view of a liquid crystal display module. The liquid crystal display module 200 is composed of a liquid crystal panel 210 and a light-emitting backlight module 22 on one side. The liquid crystal panel 210 is mounted on the backlight module 22A, and the two are assembled by a plastic frame 230. Referring to FIG. 2B and FIG. 2 simultaneously, the structures of the two ends 202 and 204 of the backlight module 220 are respectively displayed. The backlight module 22 has a 200916902 light guide plate 224, a light emitting diode 222 disposed on one side of the light guide plate 224, and a reflective sheet 226 disposed under the light guide plate 224. The light guide plate 224 is not limited to a wedge shape or a flat shape. 2A is an example of a wedge-shaped light guide plate 224 which is gradually thinned from left to right. The left end is a thicker light incident end surface 224a, and the right end is a thin light exit end surface 224b. 2B is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing the light incident end surface 224a of the light guide plate 224 and the light emitting diode 222. The light-emitting diode 222 is disposed on a lamp holder 222a. The lamp holder 222a is fixed on a bottom plate 250. The combination of the bottom plate 250 and the plastic frame 230 is as shown in FIG. 2B. The light of the light-emitting diode 222 faces the light-incident end surface 224a, and the direction is indicated by an arrow. The light incident end surface 224a faces the light emitting surface of the light emitting diode 222. to allow light to enter the light guide plate 224. Most of the light entering the light guide plate 224 is reflected by the total reflection or by the reflection sheet 226, is emitted from the upper surface of the light guide plate 224, and enters the liquid crystal panel 210. However, a small amount of light is leaked from the light-emitting end surface 224b of the light guide plate 224, and the brightness and chromaticity of the light source can be known by sensing the leaked light. 2C shows a plastic frame 230 having a cavity 232 for embedding the light-emitting end surface 224b of the light guide plate 224 and a light sensor 240 therein. Since the cavity 232 has the function of fixing the light-emitting end surface 224b and the light sensor 240, the light sensor 240 and the light-emitting end surface 224b can be maintained at a certain photosensitive distance, thereby maintaining the sensed brightness and chromaticity values stable. The inner wall of the cavity 232 includes a reflective surface 234' that contacts the interior of the cavity 234 toward the light exit end surface 224b. When the light leaks out of the light-emitting end surface 224b, it is reflected by the reflecting surface 234 to the light-sensing 240, and the light path is indicated by an arrow. The light sensor 24 is directly fixed to a flexible circuit board 242. When the light sensor 240 senses luminosity, chromaticity or energy, a signal is generated and the signal is transmitted through a flexible circuit board 242 to a control board (not shown in 200916902). The control board performs feedback control on the input voltages of the red, blue and green LED chips according to the measured signals to obtain better white light. " Figure 3A shows the position of the cavity 232 in an embodiment of the invention, and also the preferred assembly position of the light sensor 240. The frame 23 has two opposite side strips 230a, 230b. The cavity 232 is disposed at a central position of the side strip 23〇a. When the plastic frame 230 and the light guide plate 224 are used, the light-incident end surface 2 of the light guide plate corresponds to the edge strip fiber 'and the light end surface island rides on the opposite side strip 230a and is fixed in the cavity 232 . Since the - side of the light guide plate 224 facing away from the light source is the position where the light leakage amount is the largest and the light mixing effect is optimal, the light sensor 240 is placed in the cavity 232 to have an optimum photosensitive effect. One. FIG. 3B is an enlarged view of the cavity 232 of FIG. 3A. The top of the cavity 232 has a flange 236' which forms a photosensitive notch 238 at the bottom. The flange 236 can fix the light guide plate 224' such that the light exit end surface 224b is located between the convex edge, the edge 236 and the photosensitive notch, and the distance between the light guide plate 224 and the light sensor 240 is determined. As such, the light sensor 240 does not affect the amount of light received by the displacement of the light guide plate 224, resulting in a change in brightness and chromaticity of the backlight module 220. A side strip 23〇a is provided for the liquid crystal panel 210 to be placed thereon. 4A shows the assembled relationship of the bottom of cavity 232 to light sensor 240. The bottom surface of the side strip 230a has a recess 239 disposed along the periphery of the photosensitive notch 238. When the light sensor 240 is buried into the photosensitive notch 238 from the bottom to the top, the recessed portion 239 can accommodate the flexible circuit board 242 to avoid increasing the overall thickness of the backlight module 22A. 4B is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 4A showing the internal structure of the cavity 232. In addition to the photosensitive notch 238, the cavity 232 defines an opening 237 between the flange 200916902 236 and an extension 235 of the frame 230 for the light exit end surface 224b of the light guide plate 224 to extend into the cavity 232. The reflective surface 234 can be a bevel or a curved surface ' toward the opening 237 and the photosensitive notch 238. 4C is a top view of FIG. 4B showing the assembled relationship of the light guide plate 224 and the reflective sheet 226 with the cavity 232. 4D shows that the brightness enhancement film 410 is placed over the light guide plate 224. The diffusion sheet 42 is placed on the surface of the brightness enhancing film 41 and the flange 236 and a portion of the diffusion sheet 420 is more likely to be caught in the groove 231 of the side strip 230a.
