技术领域
本发明涉及液晶显示技术领域,具体地说,涉及一种液晶显示器背光模组及液晶显示器。
背景技术
随着移动技术的发展,手机已成为人们日常生活中必不可少的通讯工具。目前液晶显示器(Liquid Crystal Display,简称为LCD)是最为常用的手机显示屏幕。液晶显示技术经历了从黑白屏幕到彩色屏幕以及从扭曲向列相LCD(TN-LCD)到薄膜晶体管LCD(TFT-LCD)的发展。
伴随着液晶显示技术的发展,应用在手机中的液晶显示器的尺寸也在不断变大,这也就导致了液晶显示器的能耗也随之越来越高。背光模组是液晶显示器的主要耗电单元,图1示出了现有的背光模组中光源电路的电路示意图。如图1所示,现有的光源电路是由多路发光二极管电路并联而成,其中,每一路发光二极管电路又由多个发光二极管串联而成。而光源电路的这种结构使得手机的液晶显示器在工作时,无论显示器所表现的画面的亮暗分布及需求如何变化,光源电路中的发光二极管均处在全部点亮的状态,即发光电路的能耗持续维持在100%。
现有的背光模组的这种结构使得液晶显示屏的能耗通常占到了手机整体能耗的60%~70%。由于手机电池容量的限值,液晶显示屏的这种大能耗的特性也极大缩短了手机的待机时长。
基于上述情况,亟需一种具有低能耗特性的液晶显示器背光模组。
发明内容
本发明所要解决的问题是为了解决现有的液晶显示器背光模组能耗过大的缺陷。为解决上述问题,本发明的实施例首先提供了一种液晶显示器背光模组,所述背光模组包括光源电路和导光板,其中,
所述光源电路包括控制电路和多个发光单元,各个发光单元设置在所述导光板的侧面且与所述控制电路连接,各个发光单元在所述控制电路的控制下点亮或熄灭;
所述导光板用于将从侧面射入的光线进行处理后由正面射出。
根据本发明的一个实施例,各个发光单元的第一端口与预设电源的第一端口连接,第二端口与所述控制电路的相应端口连接。
根据本发明的一个实施例,所述发光单元包括发光二极管,所述发光二极管的正极与预设电源的第一端口连接,负极与所述控制单路的相应端口连接。
根据本发明的一个实施例,所述控制电路包括可控开关,所述可控开关的第一端口与预设电源的第二端口连接,所述可控开关的各个第二端口分别与各个发光单元的第二端口对应连接。
根据本发明的一个实施例,所述控制电路通过调节控制信号占空比来控制所述发光单元点亮或熄灭的时长,从而调节所述发光单元的亮度。
根据本发明的一个实施例,所述导光板包括相互平行的第一表面和第二表面,所述第一表面设置有相互平行的柱状凸起,所述柱状凸起或第二表面设置有导光口。
根据本发明的一个实施例,所述导光板包括相互平行的第一表面和第二表面,所述第一表面和第二表面设置有相互平行的柱状凸起,所述第一表面或第二表面上的柱状凸起设置有导光口。
根据本发明的一个实施例,所述导光口沿所述柱状凸起的轴向非均匀分布。
根据本发明的一个实施例,距离柱状凸起的第一端越远,同一柱状凸起中相邻的两个导光口之间的间隔越短。
本发明还提供了一种液晶显示器,所述液晶显示器包括如上任一项所述的液晶显示器背光模组。
相较于现有背光模组的光源电路,本发明所提供的背光模组中的光源电路能够实现对发光单元的独立控制。这样,当根据液晶显示器的显示需要不必点亮全部发光单元时,控制电路能够将需要的发光单元点亮,同时将不需要的发光单元熄灭。由于发光单元不需要全部处于点亮状态,因此也就有效降低了背光模组的能耗,从而延长了用电装置(例如手机等)的使用时长。
此外,本发明所提供的光源电路还能够调节光源亮度。具体地,通过调节控制信号的 占空比能够实现对可控开关通断时长的调节,也就是可以实现发光二极管点亮或熄灭的时长的调节。而在一段时间内,发光二极管点亮的时长越长,那么光源看上去也就越亮;反之,在一段时间内,发光二极管点亮的时长越短,那么光源看上去也就越暗。这样也就实现了对光源亮度的调节。
由于本发明所提供的导光板的表面设置有相互平行的柱状凸起,而柱状凸起能够使得光线在导光板内传输时呈现相对收束的状态。因此,相较于现有的导光板,本发明所提供的导光板具有更好地束光效果。这也就使得导光板内光线的串扰得到大幅降低。
为了保证导光板表面的出光均匀性,本发明所提供的导光板中导光口的分布方式为非均匀性分布。具体地,在各个设有导光口的柱状凸起中,距离柱状凸起的第一端(即靠近发光单元的一端)越远,该柱状凸起中相邻的两个导光口之间的间隔越短,即导光口的分布越密集。
靠近发光单元的各个导光口射出的光线较多,但靠近发光单元的位置处导光口分布较为稀疏;而远离反光单元的各个导光口射出的光线较少,但远离发光单元的位置处导光口分布较为密集。这样也就使得导光板各个区域射出的光线较为均衡,从而保证了导光板表面的出光均匀性。
本发明的其它特征和优点将在随后的说明书中阐述,并且,部分地从说明书中变得显而易见,或者通过实施本发明而了解。本发明的目的和其他优点可通过在说明书、权利要求书以及附图中所特别指出的结构来实现和获得。

具体实施方式
以下将结合附图及实施例来详细说明本发明的实施方式,借此对本发明如何应用技术手段来解决技术问题,并达成技术效果的实现过程能充分理解并据以实施。需要说明的是,只要不构成冲突,本发明中的各个实施例以及各实施例中的各个特征可以相互结合,所形成的技术方案均在本发明的保护范围之内。
同时,在以下说明中,出于解释的目的而阐述了许多具体细节,以提供对本发明实施例的彻底理解。然而,对本领域的技术人员来说显而易见的是,本发明可以不用这里的具体细节或者所描述的特定方式来实施。
为了解决现有的液晶显示器背光模组能耗过高的问题,本实施例提供了一种能够独立控制各个发光单元的亮灭状态的液晶显示器背光模组,该背光模组包括光源电路和导光板。
图2示出了该背光模组的光源电路的电路示意图。
如图2所示,本实施例所提供的光源电路包括控制电路202和多个发光单元201。其中,各个发光单元201与控制电路202的相应端口连接,以在控制电路202的控制下点亮或熄灭。本实施例中,发光单元设置在导光板的侧面,作为导光板的侧光源。导光板能够将从侧面射入的光线进行处理后由导光板的正面射出,即将侧光源转换为面光源。
本实施例中,各个发光单元201的第一端口与预设电源的第一端口连接,各个发光单元201的第二端口与控制电路202的相应端口连接。如图2所示,本实施例所提供的背光模组中采用发光二极管作为发光单元。其中,发光二极管的正极与预设电源的第一端口(即预设电源的正极,也就是A端口)连接,发光二极管的负极与控制电路202的相应端口连接。
本实施例中,控制电路202包括可控开关,该可控开关具有第一端口和多个第二端口。其中,可控开关的第一端口与预设电源的的第二端口(即预设电源的负极,也就是K端口)连接,可控开关的各个第二端口与相应的发光二极管的负极连接。
当需要点亮发光二极管D1时,可控开关将导通B1端口和K端口。此时发光二极管 D1两端的电压达到工作电压,从而向外发出光线。由于可控开关能够独立控制与发光二极管关连接的各个端口(B1端口~Bn端口)与K端口之间连接的通断,因此可控开关也就可以实现对各个发光二极管亮灭状态的独立控制。这也就是说,可控开关可以控制一个或多个发光二极管同时点亮或熄灭。
当然,在本发明的其他实施例中,控制电路也可以设置在发光单元与预设电源的正极之间,各个发光单元的第一端口与控制电路连接,第二端口与预设电源的负极连接,本发明不限于此。
相较于现有背光模组的光源电路,本实施例所提供的光源电路能够实现对发光单元的独立控制。这样,当根据液晶显示器的显示需求不必点亮全部发光单元时,控制电路能够将需要的发光单元点亮,同时将不需要的发光单元熄灭。由于发光单元不需要全部处于点亮状态,因此也就有效降低了背光模组的能耗(例如本实施例所提供的光源电路相较于现有的光源电路,其能耗能够下降40%左右),从而延长了用电器件(例如手机)的使用时长。
此外,本实施例所提供的光源电路还能够调节光源亮度。具体地,本实施例中,可控开关202通过调节控制信号的占空比,可以调节发光二极管点亮或熄灭的时长。而在一段时间内,发光二极管点亮的时长越长,那么光源看上去也就越亮;反之,在一段时间内,发光二极管点亮的时长越短,那么光源看上去也就越暗。这样也就实现了对光源亮度的调节。
需要说明的是,在本发明的其他实施例中,发光单元和/或控制电路也可以采用其他合理的电路形式来实现,本发明不限于此。例如在本发明的一个实施例中,控制电路采用FPGA电路来实现,FPGA电路能够使得开关电路具有更快的响应速度,从而使得控制电路对发光单元的控制更为及时精确。
图3a和图3b分别示出了现有的光源电路的结构示意图和导光板的导光效果图。从图3a中可以看出,现有的光源电路采用了侧光源的形式,即作为光源的LED设置在导光板的测量。当LED点亮时,LED发出的光线由导光板的侧面进入到导光板中。现有的导光板为平板结构。从图3b所示出的导光板的导光效果图中可以看出,射入到导光板内的光线呈现发散的形态。这表明现有的导光板无法有效地对射入的光线起到束光作用,这也就使得导光板内的相邻区域中射入的光线容易发生串扰。
为了解决上述问题,本实施例还提供了一种能够有效起到束光作用的导光板。图4和图5分别示出了本实施例所提供的导光板的主视图和俯视图。从图4和图5中可以看出,本实施例所提供的导光板包括相互平行的第一表面401和第二表面402,第一表面401和 第二表面402上均设置有平行的柱状凸起403,相邻的柱状凸起之间间隔有预设距离。
图6示出了本实施例所提供的用于制造如图4和图5所示的导光板的装置。
本实施例例中,导光板原材料为工程塑胶。在生产的过程中,融化炉首先将工程塑胶融化为液态,随后将液态的工程塑胶通过T形头输送到辊压部。T形头与辊压部之间存在一定距离。液态的工程塑胶从T形头输出后将在下降的过程中慢慢冷却,而当到达辊压部时,工程塑胶并未完全冷却,从而有利于辊压成型。
本实施例中,导光板制造装置的辊压部包括彼此配合转动的第一辊压轮和第二滚压轮。由于需要在导光板的第一表面和第二表面均形成柱状凸起,因此本实施例中,第一辊压轮和第二辊压轮上均设置有凸起。第一辊压轮和第二辊压轮能够对来自T形头的未完全冷却的工程塑胶进行辊压,从而形成如图4和图5所示的导光板结构。
在本发明的不同实施例中,滚压轮上的凸起可以为多个设置在辊压轴表面的周向凸起,也可以为多个设置在辊压轴表面的轴向柱状凸起。本实施例中第一辊压轮和第二辊压轮上的凸起为周向凸起。因为这种具有周向凸起的辊压轮在对工程塑胶进行压制时,不会由凸起与辊压轴形成密闭空间,从而能够有效地排出工程塑胶内的空气。这也就使得辊压得到的导光板的结构更加均匀,导光板内部的杂质更少,从而保证了导光板良好的导光性能。
辊压部完成对工程塑胶的辊压后,会将工程塑胶传输到传送部上,以便由传输部将来自辊压部的导光板向生产线后端输送。由于来自辊压部的导光板并未完全冷却,因此导光板在传输上传输的过程,也是工程塑胶冷却的过程。为了保证导光板在这一过程中不被损伤,本实施例中,传输部包括多个并排排列的弹性滚轮,以支撑和输送来自辊压部的导光板。
辊压后形成的导光板在传输部上传输的过程中,该装置中的缺陷检测部还会对导光板进行缺陷检查,以确保导光板的结构完整性和可靠性。此外,由于生产得到的导光板具有柱状凸起,这也就导致柱状凸起之间容易积灰。为此,本实施例所提供的导光板制造装置在进行缺陷检查后还会对导光板进行覆膜处理,以在导光板的上下表面分别涂覆上保护膜。该保护膜不但能够有效保证导光板的洁净度和无尘度,而且还能够保护导光板的表面不收损伤。本实施例中,涂覆在导光板上的保护膜为有胶膜。当然,在本发明的其他实施例中,还可以采用其他合理形式的保护膜来对导光板进行涂覆。
最后,通过对覆膜后的导光板进行切片处理,即可得到所需尺寸的导光板。
为了更加清楚地呈现图4和图5所示的导光板的束光性能,本实施例按照图7所示的方式,将发光单元放置在导光板的侧面,并打开发光单元的电源使其正常工作。图8和图 9分别示出了打开一个发光单元和多个发光单元时导光板内的光路图。
从图8和图9中可以看出,由于本实施例所提供的导光板所设置的柱状凸起能够使得光线在导光板内传输时呈现相对收束的状态,因此相较于现有的导光板,本实施例所提供的导光板具有更好地束光效果。这也就使得导光板内光线的串扰得到大幅降低。
由于导光板的作用之一是将侧光源转换为面光源,所以也就需要使导光板内的光线从导光板表面射出。而导光板内的光线是以全反射的形式传输的,为了能够使光线从导光板表面射出,也就需要破坏导光板的这种全反射结构。
如图10所示,本实施例所提供的导光板通过在柱状凸起上设置导光口,来破坏导光板的全反射结构。这样,导光板内的部分光线便可以由该导光口射出,从而实现了将侧光源转换为面光源的功能。本实施例中,如图11所示,导光口均设置在导光板的第一表面上的柱状凸起中,这样也就保证了光线不会从导光板的第二表面射出,从而保证了光源电路所发出的光线的利用率,提高了背光模组的亮度。
由于发光单元是设置在导光板的一侧,而导光板内射入的光线会从由各个导光口射出。因此这样将导致距离发光单元越远的导光口所射出的光线越少。为了保证导光板表面的出光均匀性,本实施例所提供的导光板中导光口的分布方式为导光口非均匀性分布。具体地,在各个设有导光口的柱状凸起中,距离柱状凸起的第一端(即靠近发光单元的一端)越远,该柱状凸起中相邻的两个导光口之间的间隔越短,即导光口的分布越密集。
靠近发光单元的各个导光口射出的光线较多,但靠近发光单元的位置处导光口分布较为稀疏;而远离反光单元的各个导光口射出的光线较少,但远离发光单元的位置处导光口分布较为密集。这样也就使得导光板各个区域射出的光线较为均衡,从而保证了导光板表面的出光均匀性。
需要说明的是,在本发明的其他实施例中,还可以采用其他合理方式来确保导光板的出光均匀性,本发明不限于此。
在本发明的一个实施例中,导光板也可以采用如图12和图13所示的结构。图12和图13分别示出了该导光板的主视图和俯视图。从这两个图中可以看出,相较于图4和图5所示出的导光板,该导光板中相邻的柱状凸起之间没有间隔,并且第一表面与第二表面处在了同一平面上。该导光板也就可以视为由多个圆柱体并排排列而成。
在本发明的又一个实施例中,导光板也可以采用如图14所示的结构。结合图4可以看出,相较于图4所示的导光板,该导光板仅仅在第一表面形成有柱状凸起,第二表面仍为平面结构。在该实施例中,导光口均设置在第二表面。这是因为第二表面为平面结构,在平面结构上形成导光口更为容易(例如湿刻蚀等方式)。而在第一表面的柱状凸起上形 成导光口较为困难(通常需要采用激光刻蚀等工艺),这明显会提高导光板的生产难度及成本。当然,在工艺及成本许可的情况下,导光口也可以设置在第一表面的柱状凸起上,本发明不限于此。
在本发明的再一个实施例中,导光板可以采用如图15所述的结构。结合图14可以看出,图15所示的导光板除相邻柱状凸起之间不存在间隔外,其他结构均与图14所示的导光板相同,在此不再赘述。
相较于现有背光模组的光源电路,本发明所提供的背光模组中的光源电路能够实现对发光单元的独立控制。这样,当根据液晶显示器的显示需要不必点亮全部发光单元时,控制电路能够将需要的发光单元点亮,同时将不需要的发光单元熄灭。由于发光单元不需要全部处于点亮状态,因此也就有效降低了背光模组的能耗,从而延长了用电器件的使用时长。
此外,本发明所提供的光源电路还能够实现光源亮度的可调。具体地,可控开关通过调节控制信号的占空比,可以调节发光二极管点亮或熄灭的时长。而在一段时间内,发光二极管点亮的时长越长,那么光源看上去也就越亮;反之,在一段时间内,发光二极管点亮的时长越短,那么光源看上去也就越暗。这样也就实现了对光源亮度的调节。
由于本发明所提供的导光板的表面设置有相互平行的柱状凸起,而柱状凸起能够使得光线在导光板内传输时呈现相对收束的状态。因此,相较于现有的导光板,本发明所提供的导光板具有更好地束光效果。这也就使得导光板内光线的串扰得到大幅降低。
为了保证导光板表面的出光均匀性,本发明所提供的导光板中导光口的分布方式为导光口非均匀性分布。具体地,在各个设有导光口的柱状凸起中,距离柱状凸起的第一端(即靠近发光单元的一端)越远,该柱状凸起中相邻的两个导光口之间的间隔越短,即导光口的分布越密集。
靠近发光单元的各个导光口射出的光线较多,但靠近发光单元的位置处导光口分布较为稀疏;而远离反光单元的各个导光口射出的位置处光线较少,但远离发光单元的导光口分布较为密集。这样也就使得导光板各个区域射出的光线较为均衡,从而保证了导光板表面的出光均匀性。
