Description

配光板及び照明器具Light distribution plate and lighting fixture
 本発明は、半導体発光素子(LED)等を用いる配光板及び照明器具に関する。 The present invention relates to a light distribution plate and a lighting fixture using a semiconductor light emitting element (LED) or the like.
 半導体発光素子(LED)を利用した照明器具で発生した照明光を拡散させながら透過させる配光板としては、例えば図20に記載したものが考えられる。
 この配光板は略平板状かつ矩形形状をなすものである。配光板の中央部には、配光板の一方の面(図20の下側の面)から照明器具の照明光が入射する入射部が形成してある。入射部には、入射部に入射した照明光を配光板の板厚に対して直交する方向に沿って放射状に拡散させるための拡散構造(図示略)が形成してある。さらに配光板の内部には、拡散構造によって拡散された照明光を配光板の他方の面(図20の上側の面)から外部に出射するための出射構造(図示略)が形成してある。そのためLEDの照明光を入射部に供給すると、入射した照明光は拡散構造によって配光板の外周面側に拡散され、さらに出射構造によって他方の面から外部に出射される。
As a light distribution plate that transmits illumination light generated by a luminaire using a semiconductor light emitting element (LED) while diffusing it, for example, the one shown in FIG.
This light distribution plate is substantially flat and rectangular. At the center of the light distribution plate, there is formed an incident portion through which the illumination light of the luminaire enters from one surface of the light distribution plate (the lower surface in FIG. 20). The incident portion is formed with a diffusion structure (not shown) for diffusing the illumination light incident on the incident portion radially along a direction orthogonal to the thickness of the light distribution plate. Further, an emission structure (not shown) for emitting illumination light diffused by the diffusion structure to the outside from the other surface (the upper surface in FIG. 20) of the light distribution plate is formed inside the light distribution plate. Therefore, when the illumination light of the LED is supplied to the incident portion, the incident illumination light is diffused to the outer peripheral surface side of the light distribution plate by the diffusion structure, and further emitted to the outside from the other surface by the emission structure.
 但し、LEDが出射する照明光の輝度が低い場合は、入射部からの直線距離が短い配光板の長辺の中央部(図20のA部)や短辺の中央部(図20のB部)には十分な量の照明光を供給できるものの、入射部からの直線距離が長い配光板の四隅部(図20のC部)には十分な量の照明光を供給するのが難しい。そのため配光板の他方の面から出射される照明光に輝度ムラが生じ易い(A部及びB部に比べてC部が暗くなり易い)。 However, when the luminance of the illumination light emitted from the LED is low, the central part of the long side (A part of FIG. 20) or the central part of the short side (B part of FIG. 20) of the light distribution plate having a short linear distance from the incident part. ) Can supply a sufficient amount of illumination light, but it is difficult to supply a sufficient amount of illumination light to the four corners (C portion in FIG. 20) of the light distribution plate having a long linear distance from the incident portion. Therefore, luminance unevenness is likely to occur in the illumination light emitted from the other surface of the light distribution plate (C portion is likely to be darker than A portion and B portion).
 しかし近年のLEDは技術改良によって高い輝度の照明光を出射可能である。そのため、このような高性能のLEDを利用した照明器具で発生した照明光を配光板の入射部に供給すると、A部やB部だけでなくC部にも十分な量の照明光を供給できるので、配光板の他方の面全体から明るい照明光を出射可能となる。 However, recent LEDs can emit high-luminance illumination light due to technological improvements. Therefore, if illumination light generated by such a lighting device using high-performance LEDs is supplied to the incident portion of the light distribution plate, a sufficient amount of illumination light can be supplied not only to the A portion and the B portion but also to the C portion. Therefore, bright illumination light can be emitted from the entire other surface of the light distribution plate.

 しかしC部に対しても十分な量の照明光を供給可能な照明器具を用いると、例えばA部に供給される照明光が多くなり過ぎ、その結果としてA部から配光板の外側に出射する照明光の輝度が高くなり過ぎるおそれがある。また、A部、B部、C部の間にも、入射部から各部までの距離に応じた輝度ムラが生じてしまう。 However, if a lighting fixture capable of supplying a sufficient amount of illumination light to C part is used, for example, too much illumination light is supplied to A part, and as a result, it is emitted from A part to the outside of the light distribution plate. The brightness of the illumination light may be too high. In addition, luminance unevenness corresponding to the distance from the incident part to each part also occurs between the A part, the B part, and the C part.
 その一方、配光板を用いた照明器具の開発においては、低背化が課題の一つとなっている。 On the other hand, in the development of lighting fixtures using light distribution plates, low profile is one of the issues.
 本発明の目的は、低背化を図るとともに、光源が発生する照明光の輝度が大きい場合であっても配光板の一部が過度に明るくなり過ぎるのを抑制可能な配光板及び照明器具を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide a light distribution plate and a luminaire that can reduce the height and can suppress a part of the light distribution plate from becoming excessively bright even when the luminance of the illumination light generated by the light source is high.

In this case, the diffusion inhibiting portion may be provided on at least one straight line connecting at least one of the long side and the short side constituting the rectangular outer shape and the incident portion.

The illumination light incident member 76 is a substantially disc-shaped integrally formed product made of a light-transmitting material (for example, a resin such as glass or acrylic). However, the transmittance of light (illumination light generated by the LED 23 of the LED module 20) is lower than that of the light distribution plate 51. The illumination light incident member 76 includes, as large components, a disc-shaped flange 77 and an incident portion 78 having a conical shape with a smaller diameter than the flange 77 protruding from the center of one surface of the flange 77. is doing. The surface (conical surface) of the incident portion 78 is provided with a reflective coating (a coating in which titanium oxide is mixed, a half mirror, or the like). The light transmittance of this reflective coating is lower than that of the light distribution plate 51. The transmittance of the illumination light incident member 76 may be the same as or higher than that of the light distribution plate 51, and a reflective coating may be formed on the conical surface, or the transmittance of the illumination light incident member 76 may be lower than that of the light distribution plate 51.

 光量調整部材84の光(LEDモジュール20のLED23が発生する照明光)の透過率は配光板51及び照明光入射部材76よりも低い。本実施形態の光量調整部材84は金属製であるため、光(LEDモジュール20のLED23が発生する照明光)は透過不能である。
A central through hole 85 is formed at the center of a disk-shaped light amount adjusting member 84 made of a metal plate. The outer shape of the light amount adjusting member 84 is substantially the same as the shape of the inner peripheral surface of the receiving recess 80, and the thickness of the light amount adjusting member 84 is substantially the same as the depth of the receiving recess 80.
The transmittance of light from the light amount adjusting member 84 (illumination light generated by the LED 23 of the LED module 20) is lower than that of the light distribution plate 51 and the illumination light incident member 76. Since the light amount adjusting member 84 of the present embodiment is made of metal, light (illumination light generated by the LED 23 of the LED module 20) cannot be transmitted.
 光量調整シート86は透光性材料(例えばガラス。あるいはアクリルやPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)フィルム等の樹脂)からなる略円盤状の一体成形品である。図示するように光量調整シート86の外形は照明光入射部材76より小さくかつ光量調整部材84より大きい。この光量調整シート86は、光量調整シート86の一方の面(光量調整部材84側の面)から光量調整シート86内に入射した照明光を、他方の面(光量調整部材84と反対側の面)から拡散させながら出射する機能を有している。但し、光量調整シート86の他方の面には、一つの遮光部87と多数の遮光部88が(印刷等の手段によって)コーティングしてある。遮光部87は光量調整シート86の中心部に形成した(大径の)円形形状のものである。各遮光部88は遮光部87の外周側領域に形成した、遮光部87より小径の円形形状のものである。遮光部87及び遮光部88は遮光性材料(例えばポリウレタン樹脂に酸化チタン(TiO2)等を着色剤として混合したもの)により構成したものである。光量調整シート86及び遮光部87の中心部には、両者を貫通する中心貫通孔89が形成してある。 The light amount adjusting sheet 86 is a substantially disc-shaped integrally formed product made of a translucent material (for example, glass or resin such as acrylic or PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film). As shown in the drawing, the outer shape of the light amount adjusting sheet 86 is smaller than the illumination light incident member 76 and larger than the light amount adjusting member 84. The light amount adjustment sheet 86 converts illumination light that has entered the light amount adjustment sheet 86 from one surface (the surface on the light amount adjustment member 84 side) of the light amount adjustment sheet 86 into the other surface (the surface opposite to the light amount adjustment member 84). ) To diffuse and emit. However, the other surface of the light amount adjusting sheet 86 is coated with one light shielding portion 87 and a large number of light shielding portions 88 (by means such as printing).

Each light shielding portion 88 has a circular shape with a smaller diameter than the light shielding portion 87 formed in the outer peripheral side region of the light shielding portion 87. The light shielding part 87 and the light shielding part 88 are made of a light shielding material (for example, polyurethane resin mixed with titanium oxide (TiO 2) or the like as a colorant). A central through hole 89 that penetrates both the light amount adjusting sheet 86 and the light shielding portion 87 is formed in the central portion.
 照明光入射部材76の受容凹部80に対して光量調整部材84を挿入したうえで鍔部77及び光量調整部材84に対して光量調整シート86を被せて、光量調整シート86の外側から中心貫通孔89及び中心貫通孔85に挿入したビス90の雄ネジ部91を雌ネジ孔81に螺合しかつビス90の頭部92を光量調整シート86の表面に圧接すれば、配光板51、照明光入射部材76、光量調整部材84、光量調整シート86、及びビス90の一体物である照明光制御ユニット93が得られる(図9等を参照)。照明光制御ユニット93を正面から見ると、光量調整シート86の遮光部87の外周縁部の位置が光量調整部材84の外周縁部とほぼ一致し、各遮光部88が光量調整部材84の外周側に位置する。
 図3及び図4に示すように照明光制御ユニット93は、照明光入射部材76の各取付脚82を配光板51の対応する各取付脚用凹部56に嵌合しながら、鍔部77の外周部(入射部78より外周側に位置する部位)を外周側対向部53の底面に載せ(接触させ)かつ入射部78を嵌合孔54に嵌合させる(嵌合孔54内に位置させて、外周側対向部53を入射部78に対して外周側から対向させる)ことにより、配光板51に対して着脱可能に装着することが可能である。
 また、コネクタ付ケーブル32及び中継コネクタ42と一体化したLEDモジュール20は、2つの位置決めピン59をインシュレータ43の固定用孔44に対して嵌合しながら4つのLEDモジュール支持部57の支持突起(係合部、係合ピン)58を各取付用凹部27または取付用貫通孔27’に対して嵌合することにより、配光板51の裏面51aに対して着脱可能に装着することが可能である。すると図19に示すように、コネクタ付ケーブル32のケーブル33は配光板51が位置する平面と略平行となり、中継コネクタ42のケーブル33は該平面に対して略直交する。さらにLEDモジュール20の各LED23が照明光入射部材76の入射部78と(配光板51の板厚方向)に対向する(図3、図4参照)。このようにしてLEDモジュール20と配光手段50(配光板51、照明光制御ユニット93)を一体化すると照明器具15が完成する。この状態で照明器具15を配光板51の厚み方向に見ると、全てのLED23が入射部78の(最大径部である鍔部77との接続端部の)外周縁部より内周側に位置する(図3、図4参照)。さらに光量調整部材84が照明光入射部材76(入射部78)を挟んで各LED23と反対側に位置する。

By making the outer peripheral side facing portion 53 face the incident portion 78 from the outer peripheral side), the light distribution plate 51 can be detachably mounted.
The LED module 20 integrated with the connector-attached cable 32 and the relay connector 42 is configured to support the four LED module support portions 57 while supporting the two positioning pins 59 in the fixing holes 44 of the insulator 43 (see FIG.

Further, each LED 23 of the LED module 20 faces the incident portion 78 of the illumination light incident member 76 (in the plate thickness direction of the light distribution plate 51) (see FIGS. 3 and 4). When the LED module 20 and the light distribution means 50 (light distribution plate 51, illumination light control unit 93) are integrated in this way, the lighting fixture 15 is completed. When the lighting fixture 15 is viewed in the thickness direction of the light distribution plate 51 in this state, all the LEDs 23 are located on the inner peripheral side of the outer peripheral edge portion (of the connection end portion with the flange portion 77 which is the maximum diameter portion) of the incident portion 78. (See FIGS. 3 and 4). Further, the light amount adjusting member 84 is located on the opposite side of each LED 23 with the illumination light incident member 76 (incident part 78) interposed therebetween.
 図23~図26に示すように、照明器具(半導体発光素子モジュール)15の完成状態では、配光板(配光部材)51の支持突起(係合部、係合ピン)58が、LED用ホルダ(樹脂成形部)21の取付用凹部27または取付用貫通孔27’、及び、導通板(導通部材)29の係合孔29Dまたは係合孔29Eに係合され、さらに、ヒートシンク(ベース部材)28の退避用切欠部(係合部退避部)28Bまたは退避用切欠部(係合部退避部)28Cに退避する(逃げ込む)。これにより、ヒートシンク(ベース部材)28とLED用ホルダ(樹脂成形部)21の結合体及び配光板(配光部材)51の支持構造を好適に実現することが可能になる(組み立て易くなる)。また、配光板(配光部材)51さらには照明器具(半導体発光素子モジュール)15の低背化を図ることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 23 to 26, in the completed state of the lighting fixture (semiconductor light emitting element module) 15, the support protrusions (engagement portions, engagement pins) 58 of the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51 are used as LED holders. (Resin molding part) 21 is engaged with the mounting recess 27 or mounting through-hole 27 ′ and the engagement hole 29 D or engagement hole 29 E of the conduction plate (conduction member) 29, and further the heat sink (base member) Retreats (retreats) to the 28 retraction notch (engagement part retraction part) 28B or retraction notch (engagement part retraction part) 28C. Thereby, it becomes possible to suitably realize a combined structure of the heat sink (base member) 28 and the LED holder (resin molding part) 21 and the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51 (easy to assemble). Further, the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51 and the lighting fixture (semiconductor light emitting element module) 15 can be reduced in height.
 また、配光板(配光部材)51は、自身の支持突起(係合部、係合ピン)58を取付用凹部27または取付用貫通孔27’に係合することにより、ヒートシンク(ベース部材)28とLED用ホルダ(樹脂成形部)21の結合体に対して位置決めされる。 Further, the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51 engages its own support protrusion (engagement portion, engagement pin) 58 with the mounting recess 27 or the mounting through-hole 27 ′, whereby the heat sink (base member). 28 and the LED holder (resin molding portion) 21 are positioned.
 さらに、配光板(配光部材)51は、自身の位置決めピン59をインシュレータ43の固定用孔44に係合することにより、中継コネクタ42に対して位置決めされる。 Furthermore, the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51 is positioned with respect to the relay connector 42 by engaging its positioning pin 59 with the fixing hole 44 of the insulator 43.
 図24に示すように、配光板(配光部材)51は、照明器具(半導体発光素子モジュール)15に積層されるシャシー(シャシー部材)12の対向面(図23には描いていない)に接触する先端接触面61が形成された下駄状支持部60を有している。これにより、照明器具15とシャシー12の積層構造を安定化するとともに、ヒートシンク28とシャシー12の接触安定性を確保(保証)することができる。なお、下駄状支持部60の形状や配置場所には自由度がある。例えば、下駄状支持部60を、LEDモジュール20の平面視略矩形の周縁部を取り囲むように設けることができる(例えば対角に位置する2つのL字形状とすることができる)。あるいは、図8(b)に描いたように、下駄状支持部60を、配光板(配光部材)51の裏面51aの周縁部に間欠的に(ピンポイントで)設けることもできる。 As shown in FIG. 24, the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51 contacts the opposite surface (not shown in FIG. 23) of the chassis (chassis member) 12 stacked on the lighting fixture (semiconductor light emitting element module) 15. It has a clog-like support portion 60 on which a tip contact surface 61 is formed. As a result, the laminated structure of the lighting fixture 15 and the chassis 12 can be stabilized, and the contact stability between the heat sink 28 and the chassis 12 can be ensured (guaranteed). In addition, the shape and arrangement | positioning location of the clog-like support part 60 have freedom. For example, the clog-like support part 60 can be provided so as to surround the peripheral part of the substantially rectangular shape in plan view of the LED module 20 (for example, two L-shapes positioned diagonally). Alternatively, as illustrated in FIG. 8B, the clog-like support portion 60 can be provided intermittently (pinpoint) on the peripheral portion of the back surface 51 a of the light distribution plate (light distribution member) 51.
 照明器具15とシャシー12は、中継コネクタ42のケーブル33をケーブル用貫通孔12aを通してシャシー12の裏面(配光板51と反対側)に引き出しながら配光板51の4つの筒状突起71の先端面(先端接触面)に対してシャシー12の配光板51との対向面を接触させ、シャシー12の裏面側から各ビス用貫通孔に挿入したビス(図示略)を配光板51の各雌ネジ孔70に対して螺合することにより、両者を積層した状態で固定可能である(図19参照)。さらに照明器具15とシャシー12を固定すると、LEDモジュール20のヒートシンク28がシャシー12のヒートシンク28との対向面に接触する(図19参照)。
 さらに配光板51の表面51bに対して液晶パネル11を固定状態で積層すれば液晶表示装置10が完成する(図19参照)。
The lighting fixture 15 and the chassis 12 are connected to the front end surfaces of the four cylindrical projections 71 of the light distribution plate 51 while pulling out the cable 33 of the relay connector 42 to the rear surface of the chassis 12 (opposite to the light distribution plate 51) through the cable through hole 12a. The surface facing the light distribution plate 51 of the chassis 12 is brought into contact with the tip contact surface), and screws (not shown) inserted into the screw through holes from the back side of the chassis 12 are each female screw hole 70 of the light distribution plate 51. Can be fixed in a stacked state (see FIG. 19). Further, when the lighting fixture 15 and the chassis 12 are fixed, the heat sink 28 of the LED module 20 comes into contact with the surface of the chassis 12 facing the heat sink 28 (see FIG. 19).
Further, if the liquid crystal panel 11 is laminated in a fixed state on the surface 51b of the light distribution plate 51, the liquid crystal display device 10 is completed (see FIG. 19).
 コネクタ付ケーブル32と中継コネクタ42の一方のケーブル33(電線34)を電源(図示略)の陽極に接続しかつ他方のケーブル33(電線34)を当該電源の陰極に接続した上で図示を省略したスイッチをOFFからONに切り換えると、電源で発生した電流が各ケーブル33を介してLEDモジュール20(LED23)に供給されるので各LED23が発光する。一方、上記スイッチをONからOFFに切り換えれば、電流のLED23への供給が遮断されるので各LED23は消灯する。
 LEDモジュール20の各LED23が出射した照明光は直進性が高いため、図3、図4に示すように、各LED23の照明光の大部分は入射部78側に向かって進む(図3、図4中の矢印A、B参照)。またLED23が出射した照明光の別の一部は、LEDモジュール20の反射膜24によって反射されることにより入射部78側に向かう(図3、図4中の矢印A、B参照)。
One cable 33 (electric wire 34) of the cable 32 with connector and the relay connector 42 is connected to the anode of the power source (not shown) and the other cable 33 (electric wire 34) is connected to the cathode of the power source, and the illustration is omitted. When the switch is switched from OFF to ON, the current generated by the power supply is supplied to the LED module 20 (LED 23) via each cable 33, so that each LED 23 emits light. On the other hand, when the switch is switched from ON to OFF, the supply of current to the LEDs 23 is interrupted, so that the LEDs 23 are turned off.
Since the illumination light emitted from each LED 23 of the LED module 20 has high straightness, most of the illumination light from each LED 23 travels toward the incident portion 78 side as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 (FIGS. 3 and 4). (See arrows A and B in 4). Further, another part of the illumination light emitted from the LED 23 is reflected by the reflective film 24 of the LED module 20 to be directed toward the incident portion 78 (see arrows A and B in FIGS. 3 and 4).
 入射部78の先端面(LEDモジュール20側の面)は円錐面であり、しかも入射部78(照明光入射部材76及び上記反射被膜)の透過率は配光板51よりも低い。そのためLEDモジュール20から入射部78に向かった照明光(反射膜24によって反射された光も含む)は、入射部78の先端面(円錐面。反射被膜)によって進行方向を略90°変換されながら正面視で放射状に進む(図3、図4の矢印A参照)。すると放射状に進んだ照明光は、嵌合孔54(外周側対向部53)の内周面から配光板51(外周側対向部53)の内部に進入し、さらに配光板51の内部を放射状に進行する。そしてLEDモジュール20の各LED23が発生する照明光は輝度が高いため、照明光は配光板51の内部全体に及ぶことになる。
 しかしながら、配光板51には拡散阻害部55aと拡散阻害部55bが設けてある。そのため入射部78から配光板51の一対の長辺51L側に向かう光束の一部と一対の短辺51S側に向かう光束の一部の進行が拡散阻害部55aと拡散阻害部55bによって阻害される(図3、図4の矢印A参照)。従って、入射部78からの直線距離が短い配光板51の長辺51Lの近傍部や短辺51Sの近傍部に対して過剰な光量の照明光が供給されることはない。その一方で、入射部78からの直線距離が長い配光板51の間隔徐変部51c(四隅部)と入射部78の間には、配光板51の内部を放射状に拡散する照明光の進行を阻害する拡散阻害部55a、55bが存在しない。しかも配光板51の間隔徐変部51cは配光板51の中で最も厚みが小さくかつ各角部(短辺51Sと長辺51Lが交わる点)に向かって厚みが漸次減少している。そのため、配光板51の内部を通って間隔徐変部51c(四隅部)に到達した照明光の輝度(光束の密度)は配光板51の内部のその他の部位と比べて大差ないものとなる。そのため、照明光は配光板51の間隔徐変部51c(四隅部)にまで十分な光量を伴いながら到達する。このように拡散阻害部55a、55b(の有無)によって配光板51の内部を拡散する照明光の光量をコントロールしているので、配光板51の内部全体に十分かつ過剰でない量の照明光がほぼ均等に供給されることになる。
The tip surface of the incident portion 78 (the surface on the LED module 20 side) is a conical surface, and the transmittance of the incident portion 78 (the illumination light incident member 76 and the reflective coating) is lower than that of the light distribution plate 51. Therefore, the traveling direction of the illumination light (including light reflected by the reflective film 24) from the LED module 20 toward the incident part 78 is changed by approximately 90 ° by the tip surface (conical surface, reflective film) of the incident part 78. It progresses radially in front view (see arrow A in FIGS. 3 and 4). Then, the illumination light that has progressed radially enters the inside of the light distribution plate 51 (outer peripheral side facing portion 53) from the inner peripheral surface of the fitting hole 54 (outer peripheral side facing portion 53), and further radiates inside the light distribution plate 51. proceed. And since the illumination light which each LED23 of the LED module 20 generate | occur | produces has high brightness | luminance, illumination light reaches the whole inside of the light distribution board 51. FIG.
However, the light distribution plate 51 is provided with a diffusion inhibiting part 55a and a diffusion inhibiting part 55b. For this reason, a part of the light beam traveling from the incident part 78 toward the pair of long sides 51L and the part of the light beam traveling toward the pair of short sides 51S are inhibited by the diffusion inhibiting part 55a and the diffusion inhibiting part 55b. (See arrow A in FIGS. 3 and 4). Therefore, an excessive amount of illumination light is not supplied to the vicinity of the long side 51L or the vicinity of the short side 51S of the light distribution plate 51 having a short linear distance from the incident part 78. On the other hand, between the interval gradually changing portion 51c (four corners) of the light distribution plate 51 having a long linear distance from the incident portion 78 and the incident portion 78, the progress of the illumination light that diffuses radially inside the light distribution plate 51 is progressed. There are no diffusion inhibiting portions 55a and 55b to inhibit. Moreover, the interval gradually changing portion 51c of the light distribution plate 51 has the smallest thickness among the light distribution plates 51, and the thickness gradually decreases toward each corner (a point where the short side 51S and the long side 51L intersect). Therefore, the luminance (light flux density) of the illumination light that reaches the interval gradually changing portion 51 c (four corners) through the inside of the light distribution plate 51 is not much different from that of other portions inside the light distribution plate 51. Therefore, the illumination light reaches the interval gradually changing portion 51c (four corners) of the light distribution plate 51 with a sufficient amount of light. In this way, the amount of illumination light diffusing inside the light distribution plate 51 is controlled by the diffusion inhibiting portions 55a and 55b (presence / absence), so that a sufficient and non-excessive amount of illumination light is almost entirely in the light distribution plate 51. It will be supplied evenly.
 さらに、配光板51の内部を拡散した照明光は、配光板51の裏面51aに凹設した円錐状凹部73の表面によって表面51b側に反射される(図3の矢印参照)。そのため、配光板51の表面51b全体から十分な明るさの照明光が出射される。
 その上、拡散阻害部55a、55bの働きによって配光板51の長辺51Lの近傍部や短辺51Sの近傍部に対して過剰な光量の照明光が供給されることが抑制されているので、これらの部位から表面51bの外側に出射された照明光が過度に明るくなり過ぎるのを抑制できる。
 また、配光板51の雌ネジ孔70の内部には金属製のビスが挿入してあるため、配光板51の内部を放射状に拡散する照明光の進行は当該ビスによって妨げられ易い。即ち、当該ビス(雌ネジ孔70)と当該ビスの近傍に位置する短辺51Sの間に位置する(三角形の)領域に供給される照明光の光量は他の部位(但し、残り3つのビス(雌ネジ孔70)と当該ビスの近傍に位置する短辺51S及び長辺51Lとの間にそれぞれ位置する領域を除く)と比べて少なくなり易い。しかし、配光板51の三角形領域には他の部位と比べて高密度で円錐状凹部73が設けてあるので、これらの円錐状凹部73によって照明光を表面51b側に(他の部位よりも)高い効率で反射することが可能である。従って、当該三角形領域から表面51bの外側に出射される照明光が他の部位と比べて過度に暗くなることはない。
Further, the illumination light diffused inside the light distribution plate 51 is reflected toward the front surface 51b by the surface of the conical recess 73 provided in the back surface 51a of the light distribution plate 51 (see the arrow in FIG. 3). Therefore, illumination light with sufficient brightness is emitted from the entire surface 51 b of the light distribution plate 51.
In addition, since the diffusion inhibiting portions 55a and 55b function to suppress an excessive amount of illumination light from being supplied to the vicinity of the long side 51L and the vicinity of the short side 51S of the light distribution plate 51, It can suppress that the illumination light radiate | emitted on the outer side of the surface 51b from these parts becomes too bright.
Further, since a metal screw is inserted into the female screw hole 70 of the light distribution plate 51, the progress of the illumination light that diffuses radially inside the light distribution plate 51 is likely to be hindered by the screw. That is, the amount of illumination light supplied to the (triangular) region located between the screw (female screw hole 70) and the short side 51S located in the vicinity of the screw is different from that of the other three (however, the remaining three screws). (Excluding areas located between the female screw hole 70 and the short side 51S and the long side 51L located in the vicinity of the screw, respectively). However, since the conical recess 73 is provided in the triangular area of the light distribution plate 51 at a higher density than other parts, the illumination light is directed to the surface 51b side (than other parts) by these conical recesses 73. It is possible to reflect with high efficiency. Therefore, the illumination light emitted from the triangular region to the outside of the surface 51b is not excessively dark compared to other parts.
 また、LEDモジュール20が出射した照明光(反射膜24によって反射された光も含む)の一部は、(入射部78によって反射されずに)照明光入射部材76(及び反射被膜)を貫通してそのまま鍔部77の外側に出射される可能性がある(図3、図4の矢印B参照)。しかし鍔部77の受容凹部80に収納した光量調整部材84が金属製であるため、鍔部77を透過して光量調整部材84側に向かった照明光は、(光量調整部材84を透過することなく)光量調整部材84によって完全に裏面51a側に反射される。従って、照明光入射部材76を透過して配光手段50の外側(表面51b側)に出射された照明光が過度に明るくなり過ぎる(ホットスポットが形成される)のを抑制できる。
 その一方で、鍔部77の受容凹部80より外周側に位置する部分を透過(貫通)した照明光は、光量調整シート86の遮光部87より外周側に位置する領域(以下、外周側領域と呼ぶ)に向かう。この外周側領域には多数の遮光部88が形成してあるので、この外周側領域から光量調整シート86の外部に出射される光量はそれほど多くはない。しかしこの外周側領域(光量調整シート86)は照明光を拡散させながら外部に出射する。従って、鍔部77を介して光量調整シート86の外周側領域から外側に出射された照明光が暗くなり過ぎることはない。
Further, a part of the illumination light emitted from the LED module 20 (including the light reflected by the reflective film 24) penetrates the illumination light incident member 76 (and the reflective coating) (without being reflected by the incident portion 78). May be emitted to the outside of the collar portion 77 as it is (see arrow B in FIGS. 3 and 4). However, since the light amount adjustment member 84 housed in the receiving recess 80 of the collar portion 77 is made of metal, the illumination light that has passed through the collar portion 77 and directed toward the light amount adjustment member 84 (transmits the light amount adjustment member 84. Not) completely reflected by the light amount adjusting member 84 toward the back surface 51a. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the illumination light that has passed through the illumination light incident member 76 and is emitted to the outside (surface 51b side) of the light distribution means 50 from becoming excessively bright (a hot spot is formed).
On the other hand, the illumination light transmitted (penetrated) through the portion located on the outer peripheral side of the receiving recess 80 of the collar portion 77 is an area located on the outer peripheral side from the light shielding portion 87 of the light amount adjustment sheet 86 (hereinafter referred to as an outer peripheral side region). Head to). Since a large number of light shielding portions 88 are formed in this outer peripheral region, the amount of light emitted from the outer peripheral region to the outside of the light amount adjustment sheet 86 is not so much. However, the outer peripheral side region (light quantity adjustment sheet 86) emits the illumination light to the outside while diffusing it. Therefore, the illumination light emitted to the outside from the outer peripheral side region of the light amount adjustment sheet 86 through the collar portion 77 does not become too dark.
 このように本実施形態の配光手段50は、配光手段50全体から十分かつ過剰でない量の照明光(輝度ムラの少ない照明光)を液晶パネル11に対して供給できるので、液晶パネル11全体に対して適度な量の照明光を供給可能である。 As described above, the light distribution unit 50 of the present embodiment can supply a sufficient and non-excessive amount of illumination light (illumination light with less luminance unevenness) from the entire light distribution unit 50 to the liquid crystal panel 11. An appropriate amount of illumination light can be supplied.
 さらに配光板51は平板状レンズであるため、成形性や加工性が良好であり、しかも一つの配光板51を製造するのに要する材料を少なくすることが可能である。即ち、配光板51は低いコストで製造することが可能である。
 さらに配光板51の厚みを小さくできるので、液晶表示装置10及び配光手段50全体の厚みが大きくなるのを抑制できる。
Further, since the light distribution plate 51 is a flat lens, the moldability and workability are good, and it is possible to reduce the material required to manufacture one light distribution plate 51. That is, the light distribution plate 51 can be manufactured at a low cost.
Furthermore, since the thickness of the light distribution plate 51 can be reduced, it is possible to suppress the entire thickness of the liquid crystal display device 10 and the light distribution means 50 from being increased.
 さらに各LED23で発生した熱は、薄膜からなる反射膜24及びLED用ホルダ21を介してヒートシンク28に伝わってヒートシンク28から放熱されると共に、ヒートシンク28からシャシー12に伝わってシャシー12からから放熱されるので、LED23の熱を液晶表示装置10(配光手段50)の外部に効率よく放熱できる。そのため高温化によるLED23の発光効率の低下を防ぐことが可能である。 Further, the heat generated in each LED 23 is transmitted to the heat sink 28 through the thin reflective film 24 and the LED holder 21 to be radiated from the heat sink 28, and is also transmitted from the heat sink 28 to the chassis 12 to be radiated from the chassis 12. Therefore, the heat of the LED 23 can be efficiently radiated to the outside of the liquid crystal display device 10 (light distribution means 50). Therefore, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the light emission efficiency of the LED 23 due to a high temperature.
 以上、本発明を上記各実施形態に基づいて説明したが、本発明は上記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、様々な変形を施しながら実施可能である。
 例えば、拡散阻害部55a、55bを裏面51a側に形成したり、貫通孔として配光板51に形成してもよい。
 拡散阻害部の数や形状、又は/及び、配光板51における拡散阻害部の位置を変更してもよい。例えば、拡散阻害部の形状を直線形状にしたり、拡散阻害部を配光板51の一方の長辺51Lと嵌合孔54とを結ぶ直線上に位置する一つのみにしてもよい。
As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated based on said each embodiment, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, It can implement, giving various deformation | transformation.
For example, the diffusion inhibiting portions 55a and 55b may be formed on the back surface 51a side or may be formed on the light distribution plate 51 as through holes.
You may change the number and shape of a diffusion inhibition part, and / or the position of the diffusion inhibition part in the light distribution plate 51. FIG. For example, the shape of the diffusion inhibiting part may be a straight line, or the diffusion inhibiting part may be only one located on a straight line connecting one long side 51 </ b> L of the light distribution plate 51 and the fitting hole 54.
 照明光入射部材76の少なくとも一部(例えば入射部78に対応する部分)を金属製にしてもよい。
 照明光入射部材76の少なくとも一部(例えば入射部78に対応する部分)と配光板51を一体成形品としてもよい。但し、この場合も照明光入射部材76に対応する部位は配光板51のその他の部位と比べて透過率を小さくするのが好ましい。また、照明光入射部材76と配光板51を別体とする場合も一体とする場合も入射部78の先端面(円錐面)に反射コーティング(例えば金属膜)を施してもよい。また、入射部78の先端面形状は、入射した照明光を直交方向に反射できる形状であれば別の形状(例えば四角錐)であってもよい。また、入射部78の先端面を配光板51の表面51b側に位置させた上で表面51b側に円錐状凹部73を形成することにより、入射部78の先端面によって配光板51の内部側に反射した光を裏面51a側から配光板51の外側へ出射してもよい。
 円錐状凹部73を、(配光板51の内部を拡散しながら進む照明光を表面51bと裏面51aの一方側へ反射可能な)他の形状(例えば、四角錐状の凹部)に変更してもよい。
At least a part of the illumination light incident member 76 (for example, a part corresponding to the incident part 78) may be made of metal.
At least a part of the illumination light incident member 76 (for example, a part corresponding to the incident part 78) and the light distribution plate 51 may be integrally formed. However, also in this case, it is preferable that the part corresponding to the illumination light incident member 76 has a lower transmittance than the other parts of the light distribution plate 51. In addition, when the illumination light incident member 76 and the light distribution plate 51 are separated or integrated, the tip surface (conical surface) of the incident portion 78 may be provided with a reflective coating (for example, a metal film). In addition, the shape of the tip surface of the incident portion 78 may be another shape (for example, a quadrangular pyramid) as long as the incident illumination light can be reflected in the orthogonal direction. Further, the conical concave portion 73 is formed on the surface 51b side after the front end surface of the incident portion 78 is positioned on the front surface 51b side of the light distribution plate 51, so that the front end surface of the incident portion 78 is formed on the inner side of the light distribution plate 51. The reflected light may be emitted from the back surface 51 a side to the outside of the light distribution plate 51.
Even if the conical concave portion 73 is changed to another shape (for example, a quadrangular pyramid-shaped concave portion) (the illumination light traveling while diffusing inside the light distribution plate 51 can be reflected to one side of the front surface 51b and the rear surface 51a). Good.
 光量調整部材84を金属以外の材料によって構成してもよい。但しこの場合も、少なくとも照明光入射部材76との対向面は照明光入射部材76よりも光の透過率を低くする必要がある(例えば、光量調整部材84のほぼ全体を(光が透過可能な)透過性材料により構成した上で、光量調整部材84の照明光入射部材76との対向面を、透過率が照明光入射部材76よりも低い素材(例えば金属)からなる反射コーティングにより構成する)。
 また光量調整部材84に、光量調整部材84を配光板51の厚み方向に貫通する一つ又は複数の貫通孔を形成することにより、光量調整部材84を透過する照明光の光量を増やしても(調整しても)よい。
 光量調整シート86は省略してもよい。
The light amount adjusting member 84 may be made of a material other than metal. However, also in this case, at least the surface facing the illumination light incident member 76 needs to have a light transmittance lower than that of the illumination light incident member 76 (for example, almost the entire light amount adjusting member 84 can transmit light). ) After being composed of a transmissive material, the surface of the light amount adjusting member 84 facing the illumination light incident member 76 is composed of a reflective coating made of a material (for example, metal) whose transmittance is lower than that of the illumination light incident member 76. .
Further, by forming one or a plurality of through holes through the light amount adjusting member 84 in the thickness direction of the light distribution plate 51, the amount of illumination light transmitted through the light amount adjusting member 84 can be increased ( You may adjust).
The light amount adjustment sheet 86 may be omitted.
 上記三角形領域に隣接する上記ビス(雌ネジ孔70)以外の3つのビス(雌ネジ孔70)と、これらのビスの近傍に位置する短辺51S又は/及び長辺51Lとの間に位置する領域に、円錐状凹部73を高密度で設けてもよい。 Located between three screws (female screw hole 70) other than the screw (female screw hole 70) adjacent to the triangular region and the short side 51S and / or the long side 51L located in the vicinity of these screws. You may provide the conical recessed part 73 in an area | region with high density.
 配光板51の短辺51Sや長辺51Lの側面(外周面)に反射材(例えば、コーティングやテーピングなど)を設けたり、これらの部位に円錐状凹部73に類似する形状の凹部を形成してもよい。このようにすれば、配光板51の内部を通って短辺51Sや長辺51Lの側面(外周面)から外部に漏れようとする照明光を反射材によって配光板51の内部に反射したり、上記凹部によって配光板51の内部側に反射させることが可能になる。そのため、短辺51Sや長辺51Lの側面(外周面)からの照明光の漏れを低減できるので、配光手段50から外部に出射される照明光の光量を増やすことが可能になる。
 配光板51の正面形状を矩形以外の形状にしてもよい。また、照明器具15(配光板51)を液晶パネル11用の光源(バックライト)とは異なる用途のもの、例えば通常の照明器具として利用してもよい。
