Description
まず、図1および図2を用いて、本発明に係るエッジライト型面光源装置の一例である第1実施形態の面光源装置10について説明する。
図1は、本発明の第1実施形態に係る面光源装置10の構成を概略的に示す。図1に示す面光源装置10は、導光板(導光手段)120、LED光源基板(光源)140a、および140bを備えている。この面光源装置10は、導光板120の側面に配置されたLED光源基板140aおよび140bによって、導光板120の側面からその内部に光を照射する、いわゆるエッジライト型の面光源装置である。
図2は、本発明の第1実施形態に係る面光源装置10における、各LED光源基板による光の照射範囲(照射領域とも呼ぶ)を示す。このうち、図2の(a)は、LED光源基板140aによる光の照射範囲210aを示す。また、図2の(b)は、LED光源基板140bによる光の照射範囲210bを示す。そして、図2の(c)は、LED光源基板140a,bの双方による光の照射範囲を示す。
図2の(a)に示すように、本実施形態の面光源装置10においては、LED光源基板140aから照射された光は、導光板120の右辺方向に向かって進行し、その照射範囲210aは、導光板120の下辺方向への屈折角αをなす広がりを持っている。これは、LED光源基板140aから照射された光が、導光板120の側面(すなわち、境界面)において屈折するからである。これにより、導光板120の左下角部においては、図2の(a)に示すように、LED光源基板140aからの光が照射されない暗部212a(ハッチが施されていない部分)が形成されている。
(LED光源基板140bによる光の照射範囲)
また、図2の(b)に示すように、本実施形態の面光源装置10においては、LED光源基板140bから照射された光は、導光板120の左辺方向に向かって進行し、その照射範囲210bは、導光板120の上辺方向への屈折角αをなす広がりを持っている。これにより、導光板120の右上角部においては、LED光源基板140bからの光が照射されない暗部212b(ハッチが施されていない部分)が形成されている。
図2の(c)は、照射範囲210aと照射範囲210bとを重ね合わせて示している。図2の(c)において、第3のハッチによって示されている照射範囲210cは、照射範囲210aと照射範囲210bとが重なり合っている領域である。
このように、本実施形態の面光源装置10は、その発光部分の長さが極めて短いLED光源基板を用いていながら、その配置を上記のように工夫したことにより、導光板120における光の照射範囲を十分に得ることが可能となっている。
ここで、上記式(2)をより詳細に説明するために、上記式(2)で不等号が等号の場合、すなわち、LED光源基板140a、LED光源基板140bから照射された光の照射領域が重複する照射範囲210cが0となるが、LED光源基板140a、140bから照射された光の照射範囲210a、210bによって導光板120における全ての領域を網羅することができる事例を図2の(d)に示す。この事例では、上記式(2)を満たしつつ、LED光源基板140aとLED光源基板140bの長さの和であるLが最短となる。
ここで、W1+W2は、上述の通り、LED光源基板140aとLED光源基板140bの長さの和はLであり、屈折角αは、上記式(1)を満たす角度なので、式(2’)を導光板の屈折率λおよびLを用いて書き直すと、式(2’)は、上記式(2)で不等号が等号の場合となる。
次に、図3および図4を用いて、本発明に係るエッジライト型光源基板の一例である第2実施形態の面光源装置30について説明する。
次に、図5および図6を用いて、本発明に係るエッジライト型光源基板の一例である第3実施形態の面光源装置50について説明する。
たとえば導光板120にアクリル樹脂(λ=1.49)を使用し、導光板120の縦横比が液晶テレビ等に一般的に用いられている9:16であるとき、下記式(4)を満たすことにより、導光板120における全ての領域を照射範囲とすることができる。
すなわち、光源基板140aと光源基板140bの長さの和が、導光板120の長辺の長さの0.49倍を上回っていれば、導光板120における全ての領域を照射範囲とすることができる。
次に、図7および図8を用いて、本発明に係るエッジライト型光源基板の一例である第4実施形態の面光源装置70について説明する。
例えば、導光板120にアクリル樹脂(λ=1.49)を使用し、導光板120の縦横比が9:16である場合を考える。
次に、図9~図11を用いて、本発明の第5実施形態について説明する。
次に、図12を用いて、本発明の第6実施形態について説明する。本実施形態では、複数の小基板141を連結することにより、LED光源基板140を構成する例を説明する。
次に、図13を用いて、本発明の第7実施形態について説明する。図13は、本発明の第7実施形態に係る面光源装置30における、導光板120の側方の構成を示す。
上記各実施形態において、光源としてLED光源基板を用いることとしたが、これに限らない。但し、上記各実施形態に例示したように、光源としてLED光源基板を用いることにより、より短い光源基板で同等の輝度を実現することができる。
以下、上記各実施形態の応用例について、図4の(a)~(c)および図26を参照して説明する。
図27を参照して説明した要領で、導光板120の照射面における照射が不均一となることを抑制するために、LED光源基板140aおよびLED光源基板140bは、光を照射する範囲の全てにて略均一な輝度を有する光よりも、当該範囲の縁における輝度の勾配が小さい光を照射するように構成する。
