Abstract

A wall (18a) in parallel to a side end face of a light guide plate (20) is set up in a light source installation space (S), from an aluminum heat radiation plate (18), the light source installation space (S) being provided along a frame body (14a) of one side of a resin frame (12), the heat radiation plate (18) being laid on the surface of a floor plate (16) of the resin frame (12). LEDs (36) mounted on an FPC (34) are fixed on the surface of the wall (18a) in a tightly contacting manner. A cut and bent up section (30a) formed at a shield cover (30) penetrates through a through-hole (16a) to be in an intimate contact with the wall (18a), where the through-hole (16a) is provided in the floor plate (16) of the resin frame (14). As a result, heat exchange can be made between the aluminum heat radiation plate (18) and the shield cover (30). Accordingly, heat from the LEDs (36) is released to the outside of a liquid crystal display device (32) through each section of the wall (18a), aluminum heat radiation plate (18), cut and bent up section (30a), and shield cover (30).

In order to obtain the same amount of light as that of the fluorescent tube 22, it is necessary to increase the current supplied to the LED or to use a large number of LEDs. Both of these configurations cause an increase in the amount of heat generated by the LED power accompanying an increase in the power consumption of the LED, resulting in conflicting problems such as a significant reduction in the luminous efficiency of the LED. .
したがって、比較的表示面積の広い液晶表示装置 10において、蛍光管 22から LE Dへの置換を実現するためには、液晶表示装置 10の全体構造を大幅に変更し、 LE Dの放熱対策を万全にすることが必要不可欠となっていた。このような、液晶表示装 置 10の全体構造の変更に伴うコストアップは、光源を蛍光管力も LEDに置換するこ と自体によるコストダウン効果を打ち消し、場合によってはそれを上回ってしまう事態 となった。  Therefore, in order to replace the fluorescent tube 22 with the LED in the liquid crystal display device 10 with a relatively large display area, the entire structure of the liquid crystal display device 10 is changed drastically and the heat dissipation measures of the LED are fully implemented. It was indispensable. Such an increase in cost due to the change in the overall structure of the liquid crystal display device 10 negates the cost reduction effect of replacing the light source with the fluorescent tube power by the LED itself, and in some cases exceeds it. It was.
[0006] 本発明は、上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、比較的 表示面積の広い液晶表示装置において、サイドライト方式の面状照明装置に十分な 照明能力を確保し、かつ、光源である蛍光管を LEDに置換することによるコストダウ ンと、 LEDの放熱対策とを実現することにある。  [0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a sufficient illumination capability for a sidelight type planar illumination device in a liquid crystal display device having a relatively large display area. It is necessary to ensure the cost reduction by replacing the fluorescent tube, which is the light source, with the LED, and to reduce the heat dissipation of the LED.

[0007] 上記課題を解決するための、本発明に係る面状照明装置は、榭脂フレームを挟ん で、液晶パネルおよびサイドライト方式の面状照明装置と、回路基板とが位置決めさ れ、かつ、前記榭脂フレームの液晶パネル側力 フェイスカバー力 回路基板側から シールドカバーが各々被せられて、前記各部品が一体ィ匕された構造を有する液晶表 示装置であって、前記榭脂フレームは枠体と枠体に周囲を囲まれた床板とを有し、 該床板の表面には、アルミ放熱板が敷設され、該アルミ放熱板上に、前記榭脂フレ ームの一辺の枠体に沿って一定幅の光源設置スペースが確保された状態で、面状 照明装置の導光板が重ねて設置され、さらに、前記榭脂フレームの枠体上に液晶パ ネルが重ねられており、また、前記床板の裏面には回路基板が固定されており、前記 アルミ放熱板の前記光源設置スペースに面する部位に、前記導光板の側端面と平 行な壁が、前記導光板の側端面に対し所定距離を空けて立設され、該壁の前記導 光板側壁面に、 FPCに実装された複数の LEDが、前記導光板の側端面に対向配 置された状態で、前記 FPCを介して密着固定され、前記シールドカバーに、前記榭 脂フレームの床板を貫通して、前記アルミ放熱板の前記光源設置スペースに面する 部位へと密着する切起こしが形成され、前記榭脂フレームの床板に、前記シールド力 バーに形成された切起こしが貫通する、貫通孔が形成されていることを特徴とするも のである。 [0007] In order to solve the above problems, a planar lighting device according to the present invention has a liquid crystal panel and a sidelight type planar lighting device and a circuit board positioned with a resin frame interposed therebetween. And a liquid crystal display device having a structure in which a shield cover is put on each side of the circuit board, and the respective parts are integrated together. The oil frame has a frame body and a floor plate surrounded by the frame body, and an aluminum heat sink is laid on the surface of the floor plate, and on one side of the grease frame on the aluminum heat sink plate. The light guide plate of the planar lighting device is installed in a state where a light source installation space of a certain width is secured along the frame body, and the liquid crystal panel is overlaid on the frame body of the resin frame. In addition, a circuit board is fixed to the rear surface of the floor plate, and a wall parallel to the side end surface of the light guide plate is disposed on the side of the light guide plate at a portion facing the light source installation space of the aluminum radiator plate. Standing up a predetermined distance from the end face, A plurality of LEDs mounted on the FPC are closely attached and fixed to the side wall surface of the light guide plate via the FPC in a state of being opposed to the side end surface of the light guide plate, and the shield frame is attached to the shield cover. A cut-and-raised portion that penetrates through the floor plate and comes into close contact with the portion of the aluminum heat sink that faces the light source installation space is formed, and the cut-and-raised portion formed on the shielding force bar penetrates the floor plate of the resin frame. A through hole is formed.
本発明によれば、榭脂フレームを挟んで、液晶パネルおよびサイドライト方式の面 状照明装置と、回路基板とが位置決めされ、かつ、前記榭脂フレームの液晶パネル 側からフェイスカバーが、回路基板側力もシールドカバーが各々被せられて、前記各 部品が一体化された構造を有する液晶表示装置の、榭脂フレームの床板表面上に 敷設されたアルミ放熱板から、榭脂フレームの一辺の枠体に沿って設けられた一定 幅の光源設置スペースに、導光板の側端面と平行な壁が、前記導光板の側端面に 対し所定距離を空けて立設され、該壁の前記導光板側壁面に、 FPCに実装された 複数の LEDが、導光板の側端面に対向配置された状態で、 FPCを介して密着固定 されることで、導光板は LEDによって照らされることとなる。また、光源設置スペース には、壁によって LEDの支持手段が構成され、かつ、 LEDの熱が壁へと伝達される ことから、壁は、 LEDの放熱手段としても機能する。し力も、この壁には、シールド力 バーに形成された切起こしが、前記榭脂フレームの床板の貫通孔を貫通して密着す ることにより、アルミ放熱板とシールドカバーとが物理的に接触し、アルミ放熱板とシ 一ルドカバーとの熱交換が可能となる。したがって、 LEDの熱は、壁、アルミ放熱板、 切起こし、シールドカバーの各部を介して、液晶表示装置の外部へと放熱され、 LE Dの冷却が行われる。 According to the present invention, the liquid crystal panel and the sidelight type planar lighting device and the circuit board are positioned across the resin frame, and the face cover is arranged from the liquid crystal panel side of the resin frame to the circuit board. From the aluminum heat sink laid on the floor plate surface of the resin frame of the liquid crystal display device having a structure in which the side covers are respectively covered with the shield covers and the parts are integrated, the frame on one side of the resin frame A wall parallel to the side end surface of the light guide plate is erected at a predetermined distance from the side end surface of the light guide plate in a light source installation space of a constant width provided along the light guide plate side wall surface of the light guide plate. In addition, a plurality of LEDs mounted on the FPC are in close contact with and fixed to the side end face of the light guide plate through the FPC, so that the light guide plate is illuminated by the LEDs. Also, in the light source installation space, the LED support means is constituted by the wall, and the heat of the LED is transmitted to the wall, so that the wall also functions as the LED heat dissipation means. Also, the cut and raised formed in the shield force bar is brought into close contact with the wall through the through hole in the floor plate of the resin frame, so that the aluminum heat sink and the shield cover are in physical contact with each other. Aluminum heat sink and Heat exchange with the first cover becomes possible. Therefore, the heat of the LED is dissipated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device through each part of the wall, the aluminum heat sink, the cut and raised shield cover, and the LED is cooled.
また、榭脂フレームの床板に形成された貫通孔から、光源設置スペースに篕もる L EDの熱が排出されることによつても、 LEDの冷却効果が得られる。  The LED cooling effect can also be obtained by discharging the heat of the LED trapped in the light source installation space from the through-hole formed in the floor plate of the resin frame.
[0009] なお、本発明にお ヽては、前記アルミ放熱板の、前記光源設置スペースに立設さ れた壁は、前記アルミ放熱板の端部が壁状に起立してなるものであることから、壁は アルミ放熱板と一体をなしている。したがって、 LEDの熱は、壁力もアルミ放熱板へと 円滑に熱伝達され、さらに、切起こし、シールドカバーの各部を介して、液晶表示装 置の外部へと放熱され、 LEDの冷却が行われる。  [0009] In the present invention, the wall of the aluminum heat radiating plate that is erected in the light source installation space is such that the end of the aluminum heat radiating plate stands up in a wall shape. Therefore, the wall is integrated with the aluminum heat sink. Therefore, the heat of the LED is smoothly transferred to the aluminum heat sink, and the LED heat is further cut and raised, dissipated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device via each part of the shield cover, and the LED is cooled. .
[0010] 又、上記課題を解決するための、本発明に係る面状照明装置は、榭脂フレームを 挟んで、液晶パネルおよびサイドライト方式の面状照明装置と、回路基板とが位置決 めされ、かつ、前記榭脂フレームの液晶パネル側力 フェイスカバーが、回路基板側 カゝらシールドカバーが各々被せられて、前記各部品が一体化された構造を有する液 晶表示装置であって、前記榭脂フレームは枠体と枠体に周囲を囲まれた床板とを有 し、該床板の表面には、アルミ放熱板が敷設され、該アルミ放熱板上に、前記榭脂フ レームの一辺の枠体に沿って一定幅の光源設置スペースが確保された状態で、面 状照明装置の導光板が重ねて設置され、さらに、前記榭脂フレームの枠体上に液晶 パネルが重ねられており、また、前記床板の裏面には回路基板が固定されており、前 記アルミ放熱板の前記光源設置スペースに面する部位に、前記導光板の側端面と 平行かつアルミ放熱板の材質よりも熱伝導率の高!ヽ金属で構成された壁が、前記導 光板の側端面に対し所定距離を空けて立設され、該壁の前記導光板側壁面に、 FP Cに実装された複数の LEDが、前記導光板の側端面に対向配置された状態で、前 記 FPCを介して密着固定され、前記シールドカバーに、前記榭脂フレームの床板を 貫通して、前記アルミ放熱板の前記光源設置スペースに面する部位へと密着する切 起こしが形成され、前記榭脂フレームの床板に、前記シールドカバーに形成された 切起こしが貫通する、貫通孔が形成されて ヽることを特徴とするものである。  [0010] Further, in the planar lighting device according to the present invention for solving the above-described problems, the liquid crystal panel and the sidelight type planar lighting device and the circuit board are positioned with the resin frame interposed therebetween. And a liquid crystal display device having a structure in which the liquid crystal panel side force face cover of the resin frame is covered with a shield cover, such as a circuit board side cover, and the parts are integrated. The resin frame includes a frame body and a floor plate surrounded by the frame body, and an aluminum heat sink is laid on the surface of the floor plate, and one side of the resin frame is disposed on the aluminum heat sink plate. The light guide plate of the planar lighting device is installed in a state where a light source installation space of a certain width is secured along the frame body, and a liquid crystal panel is overlaid on the frame body of the resin frame. In addition, a circuit board is fixed to the back surface of the floor board. The wall of the aluminum radiator plate facing the light source installation space is parallel to the side end surface of the light guide plate and has a higher thermal conductivity than the material of the aluminum radiator plate. A plurality of LEDs mounted on the FPC are arranged opposite to the side end surface of the light guide plate. In this state, it is fixed in close contact via the FPC, and the shield cover penetrates the floor plate of the resin frame and forms a cut-out that closely contacts the portion of the aluminum heat sink that faces the light source installation space. In addition, a through hole is formed in the floor plate of the resin frame, through which a cut and raised formed in the shield cover passes.
[0011] 本発明によれば、榭脂フレームを挟んで、液晶パネルおよびサイドライト方式の面 状照明装置と、回路基板とが位置決めされ、かつ、前記榭脂フレームの液晶パネル 側からフェイスカバーが、回路基板側力もシールドカバーが各々被せられて、前記各 部品が一体ィ匕された構造を有する液晶表示装置の、榭脂フレームの床板表面状に 敷設されたアルミ放熱板から、榭脂フレームの一辺の枠体に沿って設けられた一定 幅の光源設置スペースに、導光板の側端面と平行かつアルミ放熱板の材質よりも熱 伝導率の高 ヽ金属で構成された壁が、前記導光板の側端面に対し所定距離を空け て立設され、該壁の前記導光板側壁面に、 FPCに実装された複数の LEDが、導光 板の側端面に対向配置された状態で、 FPCを介して密着固定されることで、導光板 は、 LEDによって照らされることとなる。また、光源設置スペースには、壁によって LE Dの支持手段が構成され、かつ、 LEDの熱は壁へと伝達されることから、壁は、 LED の放熱手段としても機能する。し力も、シールドカバーに形成された切起こしが、榭脂 フレームの床板の貫通孔を貫通して、壁が固定されたアルミ放熱板と密着することに より、アルミ放熱板とシールドカバーとが物理的に接触し、壁、アルミ放熱板、シール ドカバー間の熱交換が可能となる。したがって、 LEDの熱は、壁、アルミ放熱板、切 起こし、シールドカバーの各部を介して、液晶表示装置の外部へと放熱され、 LED の冷却が行われる。 [0011] According to the present invention, the liquid crystal panel and the surface of the sidelight system are sandwiched between the resin frames. And the circuit board is positioned, the face cover is covered from the liquid crystal panel side of the resin frame, and the shield cover is also put on the circuit board side force, so that the respective parts are integrated. From the aluminum heat sink laid on the surface of the floor of the resin frame of the liquid crystal display device to the light source installation space of a certain width along the frame on one side of the resin frame, the side end face of the light guide plate A wall made of a metal that is parallel and has a higher thermal conductivity than the material of the aluminum heat sink is erected with a predetermined distance from the side end face of the light guide plate, and on the side wall surface of the light guide plate of the wall, A plurality of LEDs mounted on the FPC are closely fixed via the FPC in a state of being opposed to the side end face of the light guide plate, so that the light guide plate is illuminated by the LEDs. Also, in the light source installation space, the LED support means is constituted by the wall, and the heat of the LED is transmitted to the wall, so that the wall also functions as the LED heat dissipation means. Also, the cutting and raising formed on the shield cover penetrates through the through hole in the floor plate of the resin frame and comes into close contact with the aluminum heat sink with the wall fixed, so that the aluminum heat sink and the shield cover are physically connected. Heat exchange between the wall, aluminum heat sink, and shield cover. Therefore, the heat of the LED is dissipated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device through the walls, the aluminum heat sink, the cut and raised parts, and the LED is cooled.
し力も、壁はアルミ放熱板の材質よりも熱伝導率の高 、金属で構成されて 、ること から、壁を介した LEDの冷却効果はより一層高められる。  However, the wall has a higher thermal conductivity than the material of the aluminum heat sink and is made of metal, so the cooling effect of the LED through the wall is further enhanced.
また、榭脂フレームの床板に形成された貫通孔から、光源設置スペースに篕もる L EDの熱が排出されることによつても、 LEDの冷却効果が得られる。  The LED cooling effect can also be obtained by discharging the heat of the LED trapped in the light source installation space from the through-hole formed in the floor plate of the resin frame.
なお、本発明にお ヽては、前記アルミ放熱板の前記光源設置スペースに面する部 位に固定された壁は、前記アルミ放熱板よりも肉厚の角柱部材により構成されている ことが望ましい。  In the present invention, it is desirable that the wall fixed to the portion of the aluminum heat radiating plate facing the light source installation space is composed of a prismatic member having a thickness greater than that of the aluminum heat radiating plate. .
この構成によれば、壁の持つ高い熱伝導率によって、 LEDの熱を十分に壁に吸収 し、 LEDの冷却を効率的に行うことが可能となる。また、アルミ放熱板に対する壁の 固定手法としても、接着のみならず、角柱部材の肉厚を利用してねじ止めを行うこと も可能となる。  According to this configuration, the high thermal conductivity of the wall allows the heat of the LED to be absorbed sufficiently by the wall and allows the LED to be efficiently cooled. In addition, as a method of fixing the wall to the aluminum heat sink, not only adhesion but also screwing can be performed using the thickness of the prismatic member.
発明の効果 [0013] 本発明はこのように構成したので、比較的表示面積の広い液晶表示装置において 、サイドライト方式の面状照明装置に求められる照明能力を確保しつつ、光源である 蛍光管を LEDに置換することによるコストダウンと、 LEDの放熱対策とを実現すること が可能となる。 The invention's effect [0013] Since the present invention is configured as described above, in a liquid crystal display device having a relatively large display area, a fluorescent tube as a light source is used as an LED while ensuring the illumination capability required for a sidelight type planar illumination device. It is possible to realize cost reduction by replacing and LED heat dissipation measures.

発明を実施するための最良の形態  BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
[0016] 以下、本発明の実施の形態を添付図面に基づいて説明する。ここで、従来技術と 同一部分、若しくは相当する部分につ!、ては同一の符号を付して 、る。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, parts that are the same as or equivalent to those in the prior art are given the same reference numerals.
まず、本発明の第 1の実施の形態に係る液晶表示装置 32について説明する。この 液晶表示装置 32は、図 1から図 3に示すように、枠体 14と枠体 14に周囲を囲まれた 床板 16とを有する榭脂フレーム 12の、床板 16の表面に、図示しない反射シートと共 に、アルミ放熱板 18が敷設され、アルミ放熱板 18上に、榭脂フレーム 12の一辺の枠 体 14aに沿って一定幅(図 5の蛍光管 22を設置することが可能な幅)の光源設置ス ペース Sが確保された状態で、導光板 20および図示しない光学シート類が重ねて設 置されている。また、光源設置スペース Sには、プリント回路基板である FPC34に実 装された複数の LED36が、導光板 20の側端面に対向配置されている。 具体的には、アルミ放熱板 18の光源設置スペース Sに面する部位には、導光板 20 の側端面と平行な壁 18aが、導光板 20の側端面に対し所定距離 (FPC34および LE D36を配置することが可能な距離)を空けて立設され、壁 18aの導光板側壁面に、 F PC34が接着固定されることにより、複数の LED36が導光板 20の側端面に対向配 置された状態で固定されている。なお、光源設置スペース Sに立設された壁 18aは、 アルミ放熱板 18の端部が壁状に起立してなるものである。 First, the liquid crystal display device 32 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the liquid crystal display device 32 includes a frame 14 and a floor plate 16 surrounded by the frame 14, and the surface of the floor plate 16 has a reflection (not shown) An aluminum heat sink 18 is laid together with the sheet, and on the aluminum heat sink 18, a certain width (a width capable of installing the fluorescent tube 22 in FIG. 5) along the frame 14 a on one side of the resin frame 12. The light guide plate 20 and optical sheets (not shown) are stacked in a state where the light source installation space S is secured. Also, in the light source installation space S, the printed circuit board FPC34 is A plurality of mounted LEDs 36 are arranged to face the side end face of the light guide plate 20. Specifically, a wall 18a parallel to the side end face of the light guide plate 20 is provided at a portion facing the light source installation space S of the aluminum heat radiating plate 18 with a predetermined distance (FPC34 and LED36 from the side end face of the light guide plate 20). A plurality of LEDs 36 are disposed opposite to the side end surface of the light guide plate 20 by adhering and fixing the FPC 34 to the side wall surface of the light guide plate of the wall 18a. It is fixed in the state. The wall 18a erected in the light source installation space S is such that the end of the aluminum heat radiating plate 18 stands up in a wall shape.
[0017] さらに、榭脂フレーム 12の枠体 14上には、液晶パネル 24が重ねられている。一方 、榭脂フレーム 12の床板 16の裏面には、液晶パネル 24等を駆動するための回路基 板 26が固定されている。そして、榭脂フレーム 12の液晶パネル 24側からは、液晶パ ネル 24のための開口 28aが形成されたフェイスカバー 28が被せられ、回路基板 26 側からは、回路基板 26の電磁遮蔽を確保するためのシールドカバー 30が各々被せ られて、各部品が一体ィ匕された構造を有している。なお、フェイスカバー 28、シール ドカバー 30のうち、少なくともシールドカバー 30は板金部品である。  Furthermore, a liquid crystal panel 24 is overlaid on the frame body 14 of the resin frame 12. On the other hand, a circuit board 26 for driving the liquid crystal panel 24 and the like is fixed to the back surface of the floor board 16 of the resin frame 12. The liquid crystal panel 24 side of the resin frame 12 is covered with a face cover 28 in which an opening 28a for the liquid crystal panel 24 is formed, and the circuit board 26 side ensures electromagnetic shielding of the circuit board 26. For example, each part is covered with a shield cover 30 and the parts are integrated together. Of the face cover 28 and the shield cover 30, at least the shield cover 30 is a sheet metal part.
また、シールドカバー 30には、切起こし 30aが形成されている。切起こし 30aは、榭 脂フレーム 14の床板 16を貫通して、アルミ放熱板 18の光源設置スペースに面する 部位に形成された壁 18aの、 FPC34が接着された面とは反対側の面へと密着するも のである。そして、榭脂フレーム 14の床板 16には、シールドカバー 30の切起こし 30 aが貫通する、貫通孔 16aが形成されている。なお、壁 18aと切起こし 30aとは、単に 圧接された状態でも良ぐ熱伝導性を有する接着剤により接着固定されても良い。  Further, the shield cover 30 is formed with a cut-and-raised 30a. The cut-and-raised 30a passes through the floor plate 16 of the resin frame 14 to the surface of the wall 18a formed in the part facing the light source installation space of the aluminum heat sink 18 on the side opposite to the surface to which the FPC 34 is bonded. It is closely attached to. A through hole 16a through which the cut and raised 30a of the shield cover 30 passes is formed in the floor plate 16 of the resin frame 14. Note that the wall 18a and the cut-and-raised 30a may be bonded and fixed by an adhesive having a good thermal conductivity even in a state where they are simply pressed.
[0018] ところで、上記構造における光源設置スペース Sは、図 5に示す従来例では、蛍光 管 22が配置されていたスペースであり、比較的大きな設置容積が必要となる蛍光管 22を削除したことにより生じるスペースを、 LED36を設置するために有効利用したも のである。また、導光板 20、液晶パネル 24、回路基板 26、フェイスカバー 28は、図 5 に示す従来例と同一形状となっている。一方、榭脂フレーム 12、アルミ放熱板 18、シ 一ルドカバー 30についても、従来形状に、夫々、貫通孔 16a、壁 18a、切起こし 30a を加えたのみであり、従来部品の金型に若干の変更を加えることによって、必要な形 状を成形することが可能となる。 [0019] 上記構成を有する本発明の第 1の実施の形態によれば、次のような作用効果を得 ることが可能となる。まず、榭脂フレーム 12の床板 16の表面上に敷設されたアルミ放 熱板 18から、榭脂フレーム 12の一辺の枠体 14aに沿って設けられた、一定幅の光源 設置スペース Sに、導光板 20の側端面と平行な壁 18aが、導光板 20の側端面に対 し所定距離を空けて立設され、壁 18aの導光板側の壁面に、 FPC34に実装された 複数の LED36が、導光板 20の側端面に対向配置された状態で、 FPC34を介して 密着固定されることで、導光板 20は、 LED36によって照らされることとなる。また、光 源設置スペース Sには、壁 18aによって LED36の支持手段が構成され、かつ、 LED 36の熱は壁 18aへと伝達されることから、壁 18aは、 LED36の放熱手段としても機能 する。 By the way, the light source installation space S in the above structure is a space where the fluorescent tube 22 is arranged in the conventional example shown in FIG. 5, and the fluorescent tube 22 that requires a relatively large installation volume is deleted. The space created by this is effectively used to install the LED36. The light guide plate 20, the liquid crystal panel 24, the circuit board 26, and the face cover 28 have the same shape as the conventional example shown in FIG. On the other hand, the resin frame 12, the aluminum heat sink 18, and the shield cover 30 also have only a through hole 16a, a wall 18a, and a cut-and-raised 30a, respectively, added to the conventional shape. By making changes, it becomes possible to mold the required shape. [0019] According to the first embodiment of the present invention having the above-described configuration, the following operational effects can be obtained. First, the aluminum heat dissipation plate 18 laid on the surface of the floor plate 16 of the resin frame 12 is led to the light source installation space S having a constant width provided along the frame body 14a on one side of the resin frame 12. A wall 18a parallel to the side end surface of the light plate 20 is erected with a predetermined distance from the side end surface of the light guide plate 20, and a plurality of LEDs 36 mounted on the FPC 34 are mounted on the wall surface of the wall 18a on the light guide plate side. The light guide plate 20 is illuminated by the LED 36 by being in close contact with and fixed to the side end face of the light guide plate 20 via the FPC 34. Also, in the light source installation space S, the wall 18a constitutes the support means for the LED 36, and the heat of the LED 36 is transferred to the wall 18a, so the wall 18a also functions as a heat dissipation means for the LED 36. .
し力も、この壁 18aには、シールドカバー 30に形成された切起こし 30aが、榭脂フレ ーム 14の床板 16の貫通孔 16aを貫通して密着することにより、アルミ放熱板 18とシ 一ルドカバー 30とが物理的に接触し、アルミ放熱板 18とシールドカバー 30との熱交 換が可能となる。したがって、 LED36の熱は、壁 18a、アルミ放熱板 18、切起こし 30 a、シールドカバー 30の各部を介して、液晶表示装置 32の外部へと放熱され、 LED 36の冷却が効率的に行われることとなる。このように、本発明の第 1の実施の形態に よれば、シールドカバー 30を積極的に活用して、 LED36の冷却を行うことが可能と なる。  Also, the cut-and-raised 30a formed in the shield cover 30 penetrates the wall 18a through the through-hole 16a of the floor plate 16 of the grease frame 14 and adheres to the aluminum heat sink 18 with the wall 18a. The metal cover 30 is in physical contact with the aluminum heat sink 18 and the heat exchange between the aluminum heat sink 18 and the shield cover 30 becomes possible. Therefore, the heat of the LED 36 is radiated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device 32 through each part of the wall 18a, the aluminum heat sink 18, the cut and raised 30a, and the shield cover 30, and the LED 36 is efficiently cooled. It will be. As described above, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the LED 36 can be cooled by actively utilizing the shield cover 30.
[0020] また、榭脂フレーム 12の床板 16に形成された貫通孔 16aから、光源設置スペース Sに篕もる LED36の熱が排出されることによつても、 LED36の冷却効果が得られる さらに、本発明の第 1の実施の形態では、アルミ放熱板 18の、光源設置スペース S に立設された壁 18aは、アルミ放熱板 18の端部が壁状に起立してなるものであること から、壁 18aはアルミ放熱板 18と一体をなしている。したがって、 LED36の熱は、壁 18aからアルミ放熱板 18へと円滑に熱伝達され、さらに、切起こし 30a、シールドカバ 一 30の各部を介して、液晶表示装置 32の外部へと放熱されることとなる。  [0020] Further, the cooling effect of the LED 36 can also be obtained by discharging the heat of the LED 36 trapped in the light source installation space S from the through hole 16a formed in the floor plate 16 of the resin frame 12. In the first embodiment of the present invention, the wall 18a of the aluminum heat radiating plate 18 standing in the light source installation space S is such that the end of the aluminum heat radiating plate 18 stands up like a wall. Therefore, the wall 18a is integrated with the aluminum heat sink 18. Therefore, the heat of the LED 36 is smoothly transferred from the wall 18a to the aluminum heat sink 18 and further radiated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device 32 through each part of the cut and raised 30a and the shield cover 30. It becomes.
シミュレーション計算例では、上記冷却効果によって、 LED36のジャンクション温度 が 2. 7°C低下したことが確認されている。 [0021] 続いて、図 4を参照しながら、本発明の第 2の実施の形態に係る液晶表示装置 38 について説明する。ここで、本発明の第 1の実施の形態と同一部分、若しくは相当す る部分にっ 、ては同一の符号を付し、詳 、説明を省略する。 In the simulation calculation example, it was confirmed that the junction temperature of LED36 decreased by 2.7 ° C due to the above cooling effect. Subsequently, a liquid crystal display device 38 according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. Here, the same or corresponding parts as those of the first embodiment of the present invention are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.
[0022] 本発明の第 2の実施の形態に係る液晶表示装置 38の、第 1の実施の形態に係る 液晶表示装置 32との相違部分は、アルミ放熱板 18の光源設置スペース Sに面する 部位に、導光板 20の側端面と平行かつアルミ放熱板 18の材質よりも熱伝導率の高 V、金属 (例えば銅)で構成された壁 40が、導光板 20の側端面に対し所定距離を空 けて固定されている点にある。したがって、複数の LED36が実装された FPC34は、 壁 40の導光板側壁面に固定されている。  The difference between the liquid crystal display device 38 according to the second embodiment of the present invention and the liquid crystal display device 32 according to the first embodiment faces the light source installation space S of the aluminum heat sink 18. A wall 40 made of metal (for example, copper), which is parallel to the side end face of the light guide plate 20 and has a higher thermal conductivity than the material of the aluminum heat sink 18, is located at a predetermined distance from the side end face of the light guide plate 20. The point is that it is fixed with a gap. Therefore, the FPC 34 on which the plurality of LEDs 36 are mounted is fixed to the side wall surface of the light guide plate of the wall 40.
また、シールドカバー 30に形成された切起こし 30bは、図 4に示すように、シールド カバー 30の本体部分力 一度直角に折り曲げられた後、再度、アルミ放熱板 18の 裏面と平行に折り曲げられた形状を有しており、切起こし 30bとアルミ放熱板 18とは、 アルミ放熱板 18の裏面にぉ 、て密着して 、る。  In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the cut-and-raised 30b formed on the shield cover 30 was bent once at a right angle and then again parallel to the back surface of the aluminum heat sink 18 as shown in FIG. The cut and raised 30b and the aluminum heat sink 18 are in close contact with the back surface of the aluminum heat sink 18.
[0023] ここで、壁 40はアルミ放熱板 18よりも肉厚の角柱部材により構成されていることから 、アルミ放熱板 18に対する壁 40の固定手法は、接着のみならず、角柱部材である壁 40の肉厚を利用して、ねじ止めを行うことも可能となる。さらに、壁 40、アルミ放熱板 18、切起こし 30bの全てを、ねじによって固定することも可能となる。  [0023] Here, since the wall 40 is formed of a prismatic member thicker than the aluminum radiator plate 18, the fixing method of the wall 40 to the aluminum radiator plate 18 is not only adhesion but also a wall that is a prismatic member. It is also possible to perform screwing using a wall thickness of 40. Furthermore, the wall 40, the aluminum heat sink 18, and the cut and raised 30b can all be fixed with screws.
なお、シールドカバー 30の切起し 30bは、図 3の例と同様に、壁 40の FPC34が接 着された面とは反対側の面へと密着するように、一度だけ折り曲げられた形状とする ことも可能である。  Note that the cut-and-raised 30b of the shield cover 30 has a shape that is bent only once so that it is in close contact with the surface of the wall 40 opposite to the surface to which the FPC 34 is attached. It is also possible to do this.
[0024] 上記構成を有する本発明の第 2の実施の形態によれば、榭脂フレーム 12の一辺の 枠体 14aに沿って設けられた、一定幅の光源設置スペース Sに、導光板 20の側端面 と平行かつアルミ放熱板 18の材質よりも熱伝導率の高い金属で構成された壁 40が、 導光板 20の側端面に対し所定距離を空けて立設され、壁 40の導光板側壁面に、 F PC34に実装された複数の LED36が、導光板 20の側端面に対向配置された状態 で、 FPC34を介して密着固定されることで、導光板 20は、 LED36によって照らされ ることとなる。また、光源設置スペース Sには、壁 40によって LED36の支持手段が構 成され、かつ、 LED36の熱は壁 40へと伝達されることから、壁 40は、 LED36の放熱 手段としても機能する。 [0024] According to the second embodiment of the present invention having the above-described configuration, the light guide plate 20 is provided in the light source installation space S having a constant width provided along the frame body 14a on one side of the resin frame 12. A wall 40 made of a metal parallel to the side end face and having a higher thermal conductivity than the material of the aluminum heat sink 18 is erected with a predetermined distance from the side end face of the light guide plate 20, and the wall 40 side of the light guide plate The light guide plate 20 is illuminated by the LED 36 by fixing the plurality of LEDs 36 mounted on the FPC 34 on the wall surface in close contact with the side end surface of the light guide plate 20 via the FPC 34. It becomes. Also, in the light source installation space S, the wall 40 constitutes a support means for the LED 36, and the heat of the LED 36 is transferred to the wall 40. It also functions as a means.
し力も、シールドカバー 30に形成された切起こし 30b力 榭脂フレーム 12の床板 1 6の貫通孔を貫通して、壁 40が固定されたアルミ放熱板 18と密着することにより、ァ ルミ放熱板 18とシールドカバー 30とが物理的に接触し、壁 40、アルミ放熱板 18、シ 一ルドカバー 12間の熱交換が可能となる。したがって、 LED36の熱は、壁 40、アル ミ放熱板 16、切起こし 30b、シールドカバー 30の各部を介して、液晶表示装置 38の 外部へと放熱され、 LED36の冷却が行われる。  The cut-and-raised 30b force formed on the shield cover 30 also passes through the through hole of the floor plate 16 of the grease frame 12 and comes into close contact with the aluminum heat sink 18 to which the wall 40 is fixed. 18 and the shield cover 30 are in physical contact, and heat exchange between the wall 40, the aluminum heat sink 18, and the shield cover 12 becomes possible. Therefore, the heat of the LED 36 is radiated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device 38 through the wall 40, the aluminum heat radiating plate 16, the cut-and-raised 30b, and the shield cover 30, and the LED 36 is cooled.
なお、本発明の第 2の実施の形態においては、アルミ放熱板 18の光源設置スぺー ス Sに面する部位に固定された壁 40は、アルミ放熱板 18よりも肉厚の角柱部材により 構成されていることから、壁 40の持つ高い熱伝導率によって、 LED36の熱を十分に 壁に吸収し、 LED36の冷却を効率的に行うことが可能となる。なお、シミュレーション 計算例では、上記冷却効果によって、 LED36のジャンクション温度が 4. 0°C低下し たことが確認されている。  In the second embodiment of the present invention, the wall 40 fixed to the portion of the aluminum heat radiating plate 18 facing the light source installation space S is composed of a prismatic member that is thicker than the aluminum heat radiating plate 18. Therefore, the high thermal conductivity of the wall 40 allows the heat of the LED 36 to be sufficiently absorbed by the wall and allows the LED 36 to be efficiently cooled. In the simulation calculation example, it was confirmed that the junction temperature of the LED 36 decreased by 4.0 ° C due to the cooling effect.
また、アルミ放熱板 18に対する壁 40の固定手法としても、接着のみならず、角柱部 材の肉厚を利用してねじ止めを行うことも可能となる。特に、壁 40、アルミ放熱板 18、 切起こし 30bの全てを一体にねじ止めすることで、さらなる放熱性の向上が図られる こととなる。  In addition, as a method of fixing the wall 40 to the aluminum heat sink 18, not only adhesion but also screwing can be performed using the thickness of the prismatic member. In particular, it is possible to further improve the heat dissipation by screwing all of the wall 40, the aluminum heat sink 18, and the cut and raised 30b together.
その他、本発明の第 1の実施の形態と同一の作用効果については、説明を省略す る。  In addition, the description of the same operational effects as those of the first embodiment of the present invention is omitted.
