【具体实施方式】
下面结合附图和实施例,对本发明作进一步的详细描述。特别指出的是,以下实施例仅用于说明本发明,但不对本发明的范围进行限定。
参阅图1,在本发明的第一实施例中,用于背光模组的框架单元包括背框10和弹性紧固件20,并和光学部材30以及液晶面板40共同组成液晶显示装置(显然,这里仅仅列出了液晶显示装置中与本发明相关的主要组成部分)。下面分别介绍背框10和弹性紧固件20的具体结构。
背框10包括相连接的底板101和侧壁102,具体地说,侧壁102设置在底板101上、底板101支撑着侧壁102。底板101和侧壁102可以在制作的时候便一体成型,也可以分别制作然后通过铆钉、螺钉等方式进行连接,这里不作限定。
其中,底板101可以但不限于为一板状结构,其用于承载背光模组的光学部材30。值得一提的是,底板10的具体形状可以为长方体、圆柱、梯台等,只要有一个支撑面用来承载光学部材30即可,这里不作限定。底板101包括凸起部和凹槽部:凸起部直接与光学部材30接触并支撑光学部材30,或者通过胶垫等柔性薄片与光学部材30接触(柔性薄片可以保护光学部材30,防止其表面被刮伤),这里不作限定;而凹槽部位于凸起部和侧壁之间,凹槽部所形成的空间用于容置弹性紧固件20,显然,凹槽部应该与弹性紧固件20对应设置。从图1中可以看出,凸起部和凹槽部的连接处为一折弯形状,折弯形状可以为图中所示的坡面,也可以为垂直向下的垂面,这里不作限定。
如前所述,底板101和侧壁102可以在制作的时候便一体成型,也可以分别制作然后通过铆钉、螺钉等方式进行连接。同样不难理解的是,背框10可以是一体成型的,也可以是由多个底板101和侧壁102拼接而成的,这里不作限定。换句话说,背框10可以为一体成型的四边形框架(包括一整块底板101和与之相连接的侧壁102);也可以先由底板101和侧壁102组成“背框组件”,然后再将多个“背框组件”组成背框10,由于属于本领域技术人员很容易想到的范围,这里不进行具体描述。
请一并参阅图2至图4,弹性紧固件20包括第一支撑部201、第二支撑部202以及连接第一支撑部201和第二支撑部202的侧板203。显然,弹性紧固件20可以是一体成型的,也可以由第一支撑部201、第二支撑部202以及侧板203拼接而成,这里不作限定。而其拼接方式可以是通过铆钉、螺钉等,由于属于本领域技术人员很容易理解的范围,这里不作赘述。
不难发现,弹性紧固件20具有结构简单的特点,且其制作工艺简单,属于现有技术人员能够理解的范围。因此,弹性紧固件20的制作过程为生产制造带来了便利并降低了成本。
可以看出,弹性紧固件20放置在背框10的凹槽部,此时,侧板203与侧壁102贴合设置,且第一支撑部201的下表面与底板101相抵接。第一支撑部201的上表面与底板10的凸起部相平齐,从而使导光板等光学部材30可以水平的放置。第二支撑部202用于支撑液晶面板40,且第二支撑部202和第一支撑部201相配合以形成夹持光学部材30的定位槽204。具体地说,第二支撑部202的上方用于放置液晶面板40,而第二支撑部202与第一支撑部201之间的中控区域以过盈配合的方式容置光学部材30的侧边,从而将光学部材30固定在定位槽204中。通常情况下,定位槽204设置为U型,而定位槽204也可以设置成其它形状,只要能够容置光学部材30即可,本发明不对其具体结构作限定。
这里有必要说明一下弹性紧固件20与背框10的对应关系。在本实施例中,弹性紧固件20的侧板203与背框10的侧壁102对应设置,不难理解的是,对应设置包括多种方式:比如两者均为一平面且以相贴合的方式连接;或者在侧板203上设置定位柱、在上侧壁102设置与定位柱相匹配的定位孔以将两者固定连接;或者侧板203与侧壁102间隔设置,并在两者之间插入胶垫等垫片以将两者粘贴在一起;还可以使其它方式,只要是本领域普通技术人员在不付出创造性劳动的前提下而想到的方式,均属于本发明的保护范围。
同理,弹性紧固件20的第一支撑部201与背框10的底板101之间也可以通过多种方式进行对应设置。
弹性紧固件20的作用是收容导光板等光学部材30,以固定和保护光学部材30。因此,弹性紧固件20一般都选择使用柔性材料制作。
在本实施例中,弹性紧固件20的材料为硅胶或橡胶,而硅胶或橡胶相比传统的胶框材料而言,其制造成本更低。因此,本发明的弹性紧固件20具有成本低的特点,并可以进一步降低整个框架单元的成本。又由于框架单元是制造背光模组以及液晶显示装置的必要组件,则弹性紧固件20的低成本硅胶或橡胶可以降低整个液晶显示装置的成本。
不难理解的是,在其它实施例中,弹性紧固件20也可以采用其它柔性材料制成,只要具有相对较低的成本即可,还可以通过回收利用普通塑胶或橡胶等常见的工业材料,以节省成本。因此,本实施例仅仅是列举最佳方案,而不是对弹性紧固件20的材料进行限定。换句话说,就目前而言,采用硅胶或橡胶制造弹性紧固件20是最佳而非唯一选择。
请参阅图5,进一步的说,本实施例中包括多个弹性紧固件20,多个弹性紧固件间隔设置于光学部材30的多条侧边上,以从不同的位置对光学部材30进行定位,从而起到更好的定位效果。特别是该弹性紧固件20也可以设置成L型,且L型弹性紧固件20设于光学部材30的边角上,此时,定位槽204同时夹持邻近边角的两条侧边。同样的,也可以设置2个U型弹性紧固件20,分别从光学部材30的两个对边进行卡合。
特别需要强调的是,本实施例不对弹性紧固件20的数量和形状作限定,因为不同数量和形状的弹性紧固件20的组合均可以达到容置、固定和保护光学部材30以及支撑液晶面板40的作用。举例来说,如果要尽可能的节省材料和降低成本,则可以提供4个L型的弹性紧固件20,并分别设置在光学部材30的四个边角上;如果要更稳定的安装或为了更好的保护光学部材30,则可以在4个L型弹性紧固件20的基础上,再设置若干个长条形弹性紧固件20卡合在光学部材30的各个侧边上(如图5所示)。
以上例子仅仅为了说明不同数量和形状的弹性紧固件20的组合均可以达到容置、固定和保护光学部材30以及支撑液晶面板40的作用,而不是对弹性紧固件20数量或形状等特征的限定。
为了方便理解,现在对液晶显示装置的组装过程进行简要的说明。请参阅图5到图8,在本实施例当中,液晶显示装置的主要组成部分包括光源(图未示)、框架单元、光学部材30和液晶面板40。值得一提的是,该组装过程只是为了说明和帮助理解,而不是对本实施例或本发明进行限定。以下为组装过程的简要步骤及其说明:
首先,先将光学部材30按照顺序层叠放置;
其次,将排列好的光学部材30插入定位槽204中,以使弹性紧固件20和光学部材30卡合连接,如前所述,弹性紧固件20可以设置在光学部材30的侧边上,也可以设置在光学部材30的边角上,且弹性紧固件20的数量也可以灵活的选择;
接着,将组装在一起的弹性紧固件20和光学部材30放置在背框10中,具体来说,使弹性紧固件20的侧板203与背框10的侧壁102相贴合,使弹性紧固件20的第一支撑部201与背框10的底板101相抵接,且光学部材30由第一支撑部201和凸起部共同支撑;
最后,将液晶面板40放置在第二支撑部202上。
值得一提的是,以上内容仅仅列举了与本发明相关的步骤,而并非是完整的组装步骤。液晶显示装置的组装过程显然还包括其他步骤,如通过另一胶框或其它方式来固定液晶面板40等,由于属于本领域技术人员很容易理解的现有技术,这里不作赘述。
本发明的第一实施例的框架单元通过弹性紧固件20的定位槽204来收容光学部材30和支撑液晶面板40,并用该弹性紧固件20替换现有的胶框结构。在本实施例中,弹性紧固件20采用成本较低的材料制成,且其制造工艺线对简单并属于现有技术,故而具有成本低、制造方便以及组装方便的特点。因此,采用该弹性紧固件20可以降低框架单元和整个液晶显示装置的成本,并且为组装过程带来了便利。
在本发明的另一实施例中,还提供一种背光模组,该背光模组包括光学部材和前一实施例中的框架单元。其中,光学部材包括层叠设置的导光板和光学膜片,且导光板位于光学膜片的下方。很容易理解,导光板与第一支撑部相抵接,而光学膜片与第二支撑部相抵接。由于框架单元的结构、功能等特征已经在前一实施例中进行了具体的描述,这里不作赘述。
在本发明的第三实施例中,还提供一种液晶显示装置,该液晶显示装置包括液晶面板和如前所述的背光模组,由于框架单元和背光模组的结构、功能等特征已经在前一实施例中进行了具体的描述,这里不作赘述。
以上所述仅为本发明的实施例,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
