Description of the Invention (5) As shown in these figures, the surface light source device 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the light diffusing element assembly 2 and is disposed on the back side (the lower side of the first, second, and fourth figures). The plurality of rod-shaped fluorescent lamps (primary light sources) 3 are the reflection members 4 placed on the lower side of the fluorescent lamps 3, and the diffusion plates 5 disposed on the emission side (upper side) of the optical expansion j-assembly assembly 2. The illuminator 3 is configured with a plurality of bars at predetermined intervals. The reflecting member 4 reflects the light of the fluorescent lamp 3 to the inner surface side of the light diffusing element assembly 2. The light-spreading plate 5 diffuses the light emitted from the light-diffusing element assembly 2. As shown in Fig. f, the image display unit (here, the liquid crystal display panel) 6 is placed on the diffusion plate 5 so as to be superimposed, whereby the image display device 7 that illuminates the surface light source device 1 in a planar manner can be formed. (Light diffusing element assembly) The light diffusing element assembly 2 has a three-layer structure and is composed of the first layer 8 to the third layer 10. As shown in Fig. 3, the first layer 8 is formed by combining six quadrangular plate-shaped diffusion element blocks 8a to 8f to form a square plate shape corresponding to the planar shape of the liquid crystal display panel 6. The diffusion element blocks 8a to 8f are juxtaposed in two in the longitudinal direction and three in the lateral direction (two rows and three columns, totaling six). The respective diffusion element blocks 8a to 8f are tightly bonded to each other. Then, as shown in Fig. 3, the second layer 9 is formed by combining 15 quadrangular plate-shaped diffusion element blocks 9a to 9A to form a square plate shape having a size corresponding to the planar shape of the liquid crystal display panel 6. The diffusion element blocks 9a to 9 are arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction and 3 in the lateral direction (3 rows and 5 columns, a total of 15). Each of the diffusion element blocks 9a to 9 is tightly joined to each other. The docking position of each of the diffusion element blocks 9a to 9〇 of the second layer 9 (adjacent
1301918 五、發明說明(9) 過於顯著。 (本實施型態的作用·效果) 本實施型態中光的動作概要如下: 螢光燈3的光直接或透過反射構件4反射之後,由光擴 散元件組裝體2之第1層8的擴散元件塊8a至8f下面入射。 該入射光在傳遞於擴散元件塊8a至8f的過程中,受到第1 層8與第2層9重疊面上形成之凹部11、12 (空孔部13)的 界面所產生之折射作用。 空孔部1 3的剖視形狀為略圓形,而且空孔部丨3的内部 存有空氣。存在於空孔部13的空氣與第1及第2層8、9的擴 散元件塊8a至9〇之光的折射率之差異性很大。因此,傳遞 於擴散元件塊8a至8f内的光,藉由折射行進方向多樣化且 大致呈均一擴散。尚且,有一部份的光不會藉由空孔部13 擴散。 當這些擴散的光及沒有擴散的光傳遞於第2層9的擴散 元件塊9a至9〇内時,受到第2層9與第3層1〇重疊面上^ 之凹部14、15 (空孔部16)的界面所產生之折射作用^空 孔部1 6藉由與上述空孔部丨3相同的折射作用, = 散。據此,無法在空孔部丨3擴散的光,大二二= 16擴散。 1刀㈢在空孔部 散 面 第1 〇圖係概念表示受到空孔部1 3、 的光之代表的光路圖。 1 6之折射作用而擴 如此’來自光擴散元件組裝體2的出射 的法線方向(第4圖的B方向)可均勻化, 光不僅在出射 而且相對於法1301918 V. Invention description (9) is too significant. (Operation and Effect of the Present Embodiment) The outline of the operation of the light in the present embodiment is as follows: After the light of the fluorescent lamp 3 is directly reflected by the reflection member 4, the diffusion of the first layer 8 of the light diffusing element assembly 2 is performed. The element blocks 8a to 8f are incident below. This incident light is refracted by the interface between the concave portions 11, 12 (the void portions 13) formed on the overlapping surface of the first layer 8 and the second layer 9 during the transmission to the diffusing element blocks 8a to 8f. The cross-sectional shape of the hollow portion 13 is slightly circular, and air is present inside the hollow portion 丨3. The difference between the refractive index of the air existing in the hollow portion 13 and the diffusing element blocks 8a to 9b of the first and second layers 8 and 9 is large. Therefore, the light transmitted through the diffusion element blocks 8a to 8f is diversified by the direction of refraction travel and is substantially uniformly diffused. Still, a portion of the light does not diffuse through the aperture portion 13. When the diffused light and the non-diffused light are transmitted into the diffusion element blocks 9a to 9b of the second layer 9, the concave portions 14, 15 which are on the overlapping surface of the second layer 9 and the third layer 1 are formed. The refraction effect produced by the interface of the portion 16) is the same as that of the above-described void portion ,3, and is scattered. According to this, the light that cannot be diffused in the hollow portion 丨3 is diffused by the large two=16. One knives (3) in the hole portion The first 〇 diagram concept shows an optical path diagram represented by the light of the hole portion 13 . The refraction of 1 6 is expanded. Thus, the normal direction of the emission from the light diffusing element assembly 2 (the B direction in Fig. 4) can be uniformized, and the light is not only emitted but also relative to the method.
1301918 五、發明說明(10) 線方向之斜方向(第4圖的c、D方向)亦可均勻化。此係 意味來自光擴散元件組裝體2的出射光即使由正面以外傾 f的方向觀察亦不易出現亮度不均的問題,如此得以獲致 兩品質的照明。因此,來自光擴散元件組裝體2的出射光 通過擴散板5而照明液晶顯示面板β。 ^ 尚且’需留意最好各層相鄰的擴散元件塊係為非常緊 岔地連結。若連結不夠緊密,沿著該境界會產生光學的界 面並出現線條狀亮線等異常發光。惟即使產生此異常發光 在本實施型態中亦不顯著。 例如:即使在第1層8的擴散元件塊8a至8f的接合部產 生異常發光’亦會因第2層9、第3層10及擴散板5的擴散作 用而淡化。此外,即使第2層9之擴散元件塊93至9〇的接合 部產生異常發光,亦會在第3層10及擴散板5擴散。又,即 使在第3層1 0的擴散元件塊丨0 ^、1 〇 b之間的接合部產生異 常發光,亦會於擴散板5擴散。 此外’本實施型態中面光源裝置1之特徵係:不需形 成S知例之遮光膜(遮光圖案)。不使用遮光膜,可避免 光的吸收損失並增加射出光的亮度。 本實施型態的面光源裝置1之尺寸的變更極為容易。 因為可將光擴散元件組裝體2多層化為第1至第3層8至10, 並將各層8至10分割成複數的擴散元件塊8a至8f、9a至 9〇、 10a至10b。藉由增減小擴散構件8a…10b的組合數 量,得以容易地將光擴散元件組裝體2的出射光面積加以 放大或縮小。1301918 V. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (10) The oblique direction of the line direction (c and D directions in Fig. 4) can also be uniformized. This means that the light emitted from the light diffusing element assembly 2 is less likely to be uneven in brightness even when viewed from the direction of the front side, so that two-quality illumination can be obtained. Therefore, the light emitted from the light diffusing element assembly 2 passes through the diffusing plate 5 to illuminate the liquid crystal display panel β. ^ Still, it is important to note that the best diffusion element blocks adjacent to each other are very tightly connected. If the connection is not tight enough, an optical interface will appear along the boundary and an abnormal light such as a bright line will appear. However, even if this abnormal luminescence is generated, it is not remarkable in this embodiment. For example, even if the abnormal light emission is generated at the joint portion of the diffusion element blocks 8a to 8f of the first layer 8, the diffusion of the second layer 9, the third layer 10, and the diffusion plate 5 is diminished. Further, even if the joint portion of the diffusion element blocks 93 to 9A of the second layer 9 is abnormally emitted, it spreads on the third layer 10 and the diffusion plate 5. Further, even if the junction between the diffusion element blocks 丨0 ^ and 1 〇 b of the third layer 10 is abnormally emitted, the diffusion plate 5 is diffused. Further, the surface light source device 1 of the present embodiment is characterized in that it is not necessary to form a light-shielding film (light-shielding pattern) of the example. Without the use of a light-shielding film, absorption loss of light can be avoided and the brightness of the emitted light can be increased. The change in the size of the surface light source device 1 of the present embodiment is extremely easy. Since the light diffusing element assembly 2 can be multilayered into the first to third layers 8 to 10, the respective layers 8 to 10 are divided into a plurality of diffusing element blocks 8a to 8f, 9a to 9A, 10a to 10b. By increasing or decreasing the number of combinations of the diffusion members 8a to 10b, the area of the light emitted from the light diffusing element assembly 2 can be easily enlarged or reduced.

The invention (13) constitutes the constructor. In the first example, as shown in Fig. 8(a), the concave portions 2, 2 2 are formed to face each other on the joint surface of the first layer 8 and the second layer 9. Further, in the second example, as shown in Fig. 8(b), a plurality of concave portions 2 2 are formed on the surface of the second layer 9 of the first layer 8. The concave portions 2 2 in the first to third examples are continuously formed in a smooth curved surface, and the adjacent concave portions 2 2, 2 2 are also connected by a smooth curved surface. The cross-sectional shape of the face on which the concave portion 22 is formed is a slight waveform. In the fourth example, as shown in Fig. 8(d), in the joint faces of the first layer 8 and the second layer 9, a plurality of concave portions 2, 2 2 having a substantially semicircular cross section are formed. Further, the recess 22 of the second layer 9 is located between the recesses 22, 22 of the first layer 8. In either case, the light from the fluorescent lamp 3 can be diffused by the respective concave portions 22, so that the light from the exit surface of the light diffusing element assembly 2 is uniformly emitted. As a result, as in the first and second embodiments, the unevenness of the brightness of the emitted light generated by the observation direction can be effectively prevented. Since the number of layers of the light diffusing element assembly 2 of the present embodiment is small, it is advantageous to achieve a reduction in thickness and weight of the surface light device 1 and the image display device 7 including the same device 1. In addition, the other operational effects are the same as those of the first embodiment, and therefore the description thereof will be omitted. Further, in each of the first to third embodiments described above, as shown in FIG. 9, the recesses 1 1 to 12 2, 1 4 to 15 and 20 to 2 2 are along the longitudinal direction of the fluorescent lamp. It is better to form a line. [Other Modifications] The above embodiment is exemplified and allows the following modifications. (i) The recesses 1 1 to 1 2, 1 4 to 1 5, 2 0 are exemplified in the above embodiments.

INSTRUCTION DESCRIPTION (15) A light diffusing element assembly having a concave portion having a light diffusing function is formed on at least one side of the surface, and the light can be uniformly diffused and output. Therefore, it is possible to effectively prevent uneven brightness caused by the observation direction. Not only is the exit surface uniform, but the luminance distribution of the outgoing light in the oblique direction with respect to the normal direction of the exit surface can be uniformized. As a result, high quality lighting is achieved. Further, in the present invention, the concave portion formed on at least one of the joint faces of the respective layers of the light-diffusing element assembly diffuses light, so that it is not necessary to form the light-shielding pattern of the conventional example on the diffusion member. As a result, the absorption loss of light generated when the light-shielding pattern is formed does not occur. Therefore, the brightness of the emitted light can be efficiently increased. Further, the surface light source device including the light diffusing element assembly of the present invention is used for illumination of the image display portion, thereby forming uniform and efficient illumination and obtaining a display image which is bright and easy to observe.
