Abstract
Description
図1は実施の形態1にかかる面光源装置の斜視図である。図2(a)は実施の形態1にかかる面光源装置の平面図、図2(b)は、実施の形態1にかかる面光源装置を点光源側から見た図(断面図)である。面光源装置1は、ポリカーボネイト樹脂やアクリル樹脂等の透明で屈折率の大きな樹脂を板状に成形したものである。面光源装置1は、主表面2と、主表面2と対向する対向面21(主表面2の裏側の面)とを有する。面光源装置1は、主表面2と対向面21との間の樹脂を対向面21側から溝状に削ることにより形成された複数の構造体4を内部に備える。面光源装置1は、点光源3から出射されて面光源装置1内を伝搬する光の導光状態を複数の構造体4で変化させて主表面2から外部に出力する。主表面2の大きさは、縦70mm及び横70mmである。面光源装置1の厚みは、主表面2と垂直をなす方向に2mmである。点光源3は面光源装置1の端面に密着して設置される。各構造体4は点光源3を中心として略円弧状に形成されている。また、構造体4は、点光源3を中心として同心状に所定のピッチで配列されている。構造体4を点光源3を中心として略円弧状に形成することで、面光源装置1内を伝搬している光が各構造体4で効率良く反射する。これにより、主表面2からの出射効率を上げることができる。
実施の形態2にかかる面光源装置について図面を参照して説明する。なお、実施形態1と同一または類似の要素については、適宜、実施形態1と同一の符号を付す。図27は、実施の形態2にかかる面光源装置22の平面図である。実施形態2にかかる面光源装置22は、点光源3から出射された光を入光切り欠き部21を介して面光源装置22内に入光させる。すなわち、入光切り欠き部21は、面光源装置22の入射面において凹部状に形成される。入光切り欠き部21は、面光源装置22の入射面において、点光源3を中心とする円弧状に形成されている。実施の形態2の面光源装置22では、実施の形態1の面光源装置1と同様に、面光源装置22の主表面2の大きさは縦70mm及び横70mmであり、面光源装置22の主表面2と垂直をなす方向の厚みは2mmである。一つの点光源3を中心として同心状に構造体4がピッチp2(例えば0.3mmピッチ)で配列されている。入光切り欠き部21に点光源3から面光源装置22内に入射する光の回折状態が変化する。そのため、構造体4の高さ等の形状を実施の形態1の構造体4とは異ならせている。
実施の形態3にかかる面光源装置について図面を参照して説明する。図29(a)は、実施の形態2にかかる面光源装置の平面図、図29(b)は、実施の形態1にかかる面光源装置を点光源側から見た図である。実施形態3にかかる面光源装置24では、構造体4は略直線状に形成され、所定のピッチで平行に配列されている。面光源装置24の主表面2の大きさは縦70mm及び横70mmであり、面光源装置24の主表面2と垂直をなす方向の厚みは2mmである。一つの点光源3が、面光源装置24の端面に密着させて設置されている。なお、面光源装置24上の任意の点R29の幅方向の距離をX29とし、構造体4の法線方向の距離をY29とする。このように、構造体4の形状を略直線状にすることで、機械切削等による構造体4の形成を容易にすることができる。
実施の形態4にかかる面光源装置について図面を参照して説明する。図35は、実施の形態4にかかる面光源装置28を示す図である。面光源装置28では、円弧状の構造体4を同心状に配列した場合に、その中心点(基準点)を点光源3からの距離に応じてずらしている。点光源3の近傍の構造体29は、基準点k36を中心点として円弧状に形成され、同心状に配列されている。これに対し、点光源3から離れた構造体30は、点光源3を中心点O36として円弧状に形成され、同心状に配列されている。面光源装置28の寸法は、実施の形態1の面光源装置1と同様である。図35に示すように点光源3からの距離に応じて円弧の中心点を基準点k36からずらすことで、構造体29が配列されている領域では出射光量を減らすことができ、構造体30が配列されている領域では出射光量を増やすことができる。つまり、所定の領域毎に出射光量を調整することができる。
実施の形態5にかかる面光源装置について図面を参照して説明する。実施の形態5にかかる面光源装置は、文字または図形等を表示可能としている。
実施の形態6として、上記実施の形態1~5の面光源装置を用いた表示装置について説明する。
本開示にかかる面光源装置1は、点光源3から出射された光を端面から取り込んで出射させる。主表面2に対向する対向面21上に、点光源3に対向する反射面5を有する複数の構造体4が形成されている。構造体4は、構造体4の長手方向及び高さ方向において反射面5の一部が欠落した切り欠き部6を有する。
これにより、主表面2内の輝線及び輝度分布ムラを抑制することができる。そのため、拡散シート等の光学シートが不要になる。
これにより、機械切削等による構造体4の形成が容易になる。
これにより、主表面2の光の出射効率を上げることができる。
これにより、面光源装置内を伝搬する光が、略台形形状の切り欠き部6の側面によって反射し、主表面2から光を出射させることができる。そのため、光の出射効率を上げることができる。
これにより、面光源装置1内を伝搬する光が、略円弧形状の切り欠き部6の側面7によって反射する。そのため、主表面2から光を分散して出射させることができ、光の出射効率を上げることができる。
これにより、対向面21上での位置により、構造体4の反射面5の面積が変わり、位置毎の出射光量を調整することができる。
これにより、対向面21上での位置により、構造体4の反射面21の面積が変わり、位置毎の出射光量を調整することができる。
これにより、反射面5によって反射される光を散乱させることができる。
これにより、反射面5を任意の角度に設定でき、反射光の輝度を制御することができる。
これにより、反射面5を任意の角度に設定でき、反射光の輝度を制御することができる。さらに、反射面5の角度θm1を揃えて、断面が台形の場合と比較した場合、主表面2側から見ると構造体4の面積が小さくなる。そのため、台形の場合よりも、面光源装置1内に構造体4を多く配置することができ、輝度を上げることができる。
これにより、反射面5によって反射される光を散乱させることができる。
これにより、切り欠き部6の高さhを増減させることで、主表面2からの出射光の指向性を制御でき、かつ輝度の絶対値も調整できる。
本明細書では面光源装置に関し5つの実施の形態を示したが、本実施の形態1から5を組み合わせて新たな面光源装置を構成することもできる。
