It can be seen that, through the design of the side surfaces 351 , 352 and 353 of the strip-shaped microstructure 350 , since the slopes of the side surfaces 351 and 352 are fixed values, there will be no curvature change, so the light rays B1 and B2 will have fixed slopes.

  • the distance D1 between the side surface 351 of each strip-shaped microstructure 350 and the edge of the side surface 352 not connected to the active surface 353 is greater than the width of the active surface 353 D2.

导光板、背光模组及显示装置 技术领域
本揭露涉及一种导光元件及其应用,且特别是涉及导光板、背光模组及显示装置。
背景技术
导光板具有入光面、出光面以及反射面。光源所提供的光线由导光板的入光面进入导光板中,再由导光板的出光面射出。为了使经过导光板内部的光源能够更均匀地混合,通常会在导光板的出光面或反射面设置微结构。
然而,进入导光板的光线在射向微结构时,因为一般微结构所反射或折射的光线量有限,所以不但无法有效地利用光线,还容易使导光板产生出光不均匀等光学外观问题。因此,如何改良导光板的结构,以提升背光模组亮度均匀性,并使背光模组的出光质量能够满足不同面板的规格,遂成为相关业者努力的目标。

根据本揭露的上述目的,提出一种导光板,此导光板用以与光源耦合。其中导光板包含出光面、底面、入光面、多个条状微结构以及多个导光微结构。底面与出光面相对。入光面连接于出光面及底面之间,光源所射出的光线经由入光面进入到导光板。多个条状微结构设置于出光面及底面中的至少一者上。导光微结构设置在任意两个相邻的条状微结构之间,且沿着每一条状微结构的延伸方向排列。其中,多个导光微结构的排列密度是导光板的折射率的增函数。

图6是绘示依照本揭露的一实施方式的显示装置的装置示意图。
具体实施方式
本揭露的导光板可用于背光模组,背光模组可作为显示装置的光源。背光模组中的各元件包含底面与顶面,底面及顶面的定义以显示装置中的显示面板为参考基准,各元件的远离显示面板的一面为底面,而面向显示面板的一面为顶面。此外,本揭露中,一个元件设置于另一元件的上方,是指该一个元件设置于该另一元件的顶面或该另一元件的顶面的上方。
请参照图1及图2,图1是绘示依照本揭露的第一实施方式的背光模组的装置示意图,图2是绘示依照本揭露的第一实施方式的导光板的结构示意图。本实施方式的背光模组100主要包含光源200以及导光板300。光源200配置以提供光线至导光板300中。其中,导光板300包含出光面310、底面320、入光面330、反入光面340、多个条状微结构350以及多个导光微结构360。入光面330相对于反入光面340。底面320与出光面310则分别连接在入光面330的相对两侧。光源200邻设于入光面330,故光源200所射出的光线经由入光面330进入到导光板300中。
在一些实施例中,条状微结构350可设置于出光面310与底面320的至少一者上。在图1及图2的实施例中,条状微结构350设置在底面320上。在本实施例中,导光板300具有长度方向L1与厚度方向T1,其中长度方向L1垂直于入光面330的延伸方向,条状微结构350沿着导光板300的长度方向L1延伸。在一些实施例中,条状微结构350的一端连接入光面330,另一端连接反入光面340。其中,在本实施例中,条状微结构350沿着入光面330的延伸方向不连续地排列。
在本实施例中,每一个条状微结构350具有相对的两个侧面(例如侧 面351、侧面352)以及作用面353。侧面351与侧面352分别连接于作用面353的相对两个侧边。具体而言,每一个条状微结构350的截面为梯形,且作用面353为平面,也就是说,当条状微结构350设置于出光面310时,作用面353平行于出光面310,当条状微结构350设置于底面320时,作用面353平行于底面320。其中,侧面351与侧面352相对于作用面353倾斜,且侧面351与侧面352分别与厚度方向T1之间具有夹角θ1与夹角θ2。在本实施例中,夹角θ1与夹角θ2主要用来决定侧面351与侧面352相对于侧面351的倾斜程度。在本实施例中,条状微结构350所发挥的功能,是当光线在导光板300的出光面310与底面320之间因全反射原理而来回反射时,借由侧面351与侧面352来改变光线在导光板300内部的光线的行径方向,并结合作用面353的设计,可控制光线从导光板300射出的出光角度,达到调整出光视角的目的。此外,本揭露的条状微结构350的侧面与作用面的设计,在模具加工上较容易控制。具体而言,通过将侧面351与侧面352设计成斜面并相对于作用面353倾斜的方式,在加工时较容易控制夹角θ1与夹角θ2,以决定侧面351与侧面352的斜率。若将条状微结构换成截面为半圆形的圆弧条状结构的话,则会因为圆弧表面本身具有曲率的变化而使得光线的出光方向不易控制。若将条状微结构换成截面为倒三角形的V形状结构的话,则会因为光线容易从三角形一个侧面进入至另一个侧面,而导致光线经过多次折射与反射而无法控制出光方向。
具体而言,请参照图3所示,图3是绘示依照本揭露的第一实施方式的导光板的局部剖面示意图。当光线B1射向条状微结构350的侧面352时,会先与侧面352作用而射出导光板300外,并进一步被设置在导光板300底部的反射片370反射后而再次进入导光板300中,且再次进入导光板300的光线则会以偏向导光板300的出光面310的法线方向出光,达到收敛出光视角的目的。当光线B2射向条状微结构350的侧面351时,因为条状微结构350的两个侧面351与侧面352之间以作用面353隔开而不直接相连,故被侧面351反射的光线B2并不会从侧面352射出,而是被作用面353反射后从导光板300的出光面310出光。由此可知,通过条状微结构350的侧面351、侧面352与作用面353的设计,由于侧面351、侧面352的斜率 是固定值而不会产生曲率变化,因此光线B1、B2会被固定斜率的斜面所反射或折射,而朝向特定的作用面353或反射片370前进,因此可达到调整光线的出光方向的目的,有效收敛左右侧视角,降低噪声。如果是曲率变化的圆弧表面,光线于此处所产生的反射或折射就不易受到控制,且光线在出光时容易产生发散的左右视角,因此容易出现视角大小不可控的缺点。如果以倒三角形的V形条状结构来看,倒三角形的V形条状结构因为欠缺平行于出光面310或底面320的作用面353,所以光线会有更大比例被固定斜率的斜面所折射而离开导光板进入空气层再被反射片予以反射,此种光线因在不同介质之间行进则容易造成能量耗损的缺点。
在一实施例中,请一并参照图1及图2所示,每一个条状微结构350的侧面351及侧面352未与作用面353连接的边缘之间的距离D1大于作用面353的宽度D2。由于光线B2的发生机率小于光线B1的发生机率,因此缩小作用面353的宽度D2,可以提高光线B1的发生机率,有效收敛左右侧视角,降低噪声。
请继续参照图1及图2,导光微结构360设置在任意两个相邻的条状微结构350之间,且导光微结构360沿着条状微结构350的延伸方向(也就是导光板300的长度方向L1)排列。导光微结构360所发挥的功能,是当光线在导光板300中沿着由入光面330往反入光面340的方向行进时,借由导光微结构360的凹凸设计而降低平面比例以破坏全反射,使得光线从导光板300出光,以提高出光比例。在本实施例中,每一个导光微结构360为不对称的三角形结构,且包含互相连接的迎光面361以及反迎光面362。其中迎光面361是指面向光源200的表面(也就是直接受光面),反迎光面362是指相对于迎光面且背对光源200的表面。在本实施例中,迎光面361的倾斜程度小于反迎光面362的倾斜程度,且在结构设计上,迎光面361的面积大于反迎光面362的面积,借以增加光线的反射量,进而提升光线的使用效率。在一实施例中,导光微结构360的排列密度取决于导光板300的折射率。具体而言,导光微结构360的排列密度是导光板300的折射率的增函数,当导光板300的折射率越大时,代表导光板300属于光密介质,越不容易出光,此时导光微结构360的排列密度则越大,凹凸 程度越高、平面比例越低,以提高出光比例。
再参阅图2,在一实施例中,每一个条状微结构350的宽度W1从靠近入光面330的一端往靠近反入光面340的另一端渐减。也就是说,条状微结构350在靠近入光面330的面积占比,较远离入光面330的面积占比高,相对地,设置在相邻的条状微结构350之间的用来提高出光比例的导光微结构360在远离入光面330的面积占比较靠近入光面330的面积占比高,借以增加导光板300远离入光面330的位置的光线出光量。
在前述实施例中,条状微结构亦可有不同的结构设计。请参照图4,其是绘示依照本揭露的第二实施方式的导光板的局部上视图。图4实施例的导光板400的结构与图1至图3所示的导光板300大致上相同,差异仅在于导光板400的条状微结构410具有不同的宽度变化。如图4所示,导光板400包含设置在其底面(反射面)或出光面上的条状微结构410以及导光微结构420,且导光微结构420设置在任意两个相邻的条状微结构410之间。另外要说明的是,图4中每个条状微结构410的实线为整体轮廓,中间虚线为制作条状微结构410模具时的下刀路径。在本实施例中,条状微结构410与导光微结构420的结构设计原则与功能均与图1至图3的条状微结构350与导光微结构360相同,故于此不再赘述。在本实施例中,条状微结构410靠近入光面401的第一部分具有宽度W2,条状微结构410靠近反入光面402的第二部分具有宽度W3,条状微结构410的第一部分与第二部分之间定义为第三部分,且第三部分具有宽度W4。其中,宽度W4大于宽度W2,且宽度W2大于宽度W3,故通过条状微结构410的宽度变化,即条状微结构410在靠近导光板400的入光面401、远离导光板400的入光面401(也就是反入光面402)、以及导光板400的中间部分所占的面积不同,故可分别控制导光板400的不同位置的出光量,进而可提升整体导光板400的出光均齐度。一方面,在靠近入光面401的宽度W2最小(小于宽度W3与宽度W4),导光微结构420在入光侧的宽度占比为最大,故可解决先前技术中容易在入光侧产生亮暗纹的问题。另一方面,条状微结构410在靠近入光面401的面积占比较远离入光面401的面积占比高,相对地,用来提高出光比例的导光微结构420在远离入光面401的面积占比 较靠近入光面401的面积占比高,故可增加导光板400远离入光面401的位置的光线出光量。
本揭露的导光微结构亦可有不同的结构设计。请参照图5,其是绘示依照本揭露的第三实施方式的导光板的侧视图。图5实施例的导光板500的结构与图1至图3所示的导光板300大致上相同,差异仅在于导光板500的导光微结构520具有不同的结构设计。如图5所示,导光板500主要包含条状微结构510以及导光微结构520,且条状微结构510以及导光微结构520设置在底面501上,且导光微结构520设置在任意两个相邻的条状微结构510之间。其中,条状微结构510的结构设计原则与功能均与前述的条状微结构350相同,故于此不再赘述。在本实施例中,导光微结构520包含互相连接的迎光面521以及反迎光面522,其中迎光面521包含彼此相连的第一反射面521a以及第二反射面521b。其中,第一反射面521a连接于反迎光面522,且第一反射面521a的倾斜程度小于第二反射面521b的倾斜程度。
如图5所示,第一反射面521a的倾斜程度较小,故光线B3需反射较多次,才可从导光板500的出光面502射出。第二反射面521b的倾斜程度较大,故光线B4只要经较少反射的次数,即可从导光板500的出光面502射出。由此可知,光线经过不同倾斜程度的第一反射面521a与第二反射面521b的反射作用后,可产生光程较长的光线(例如光线B3)及光程较短的光线(例如光线B4),如此,便可使得部分光线提前出光,而部分光线继续往反入光面前进。
在一些实施例中,可通过调整第一反射面521a与第二反射面521b的倾斜程度及/或长度等,进一步调控光程较长及光程较短的光线的出光位置、出光角度及光线分配比例,以满足后续不同应用层面的显示面板所需的规格。具体而言,如图5所示,导光板500定义具有长度方向L2,长度方向L2垂直于导光板500的入光面503的延伸方向。为了清楚说明起见,将导光微结构520沿着长度方向L2另行标号,即将其依序标为导光微结构520a、导光微结构520b与导光微结构520c。导光微结构520a的第一反射面521a与第二反射面521b分别在长度方向L2上具有投影长度a1与投影长度b1, 且投影长度b1与投影长度a1的比值为P1。相似地,导光微结构520b的第一反射面521a与第二反射面521b分别在长度方向L2上具有投影长度a2与投影长度b2,且投影长度b2与投影长度a2的比值为P2。导光微结构520c的第一反射面521a与第二反射面521b分别在长度方向L2上具有投影长度a3与投影长度b3,且投影长度b3与投影长度a3的比值为P3。
在本实施方式中,远离入光面503的导光微结构520c的比值P3小于邻近入光面503的导光微结构520c的比值P2。也就是说,导光微结构520a、导光微结构520b与导光微结构520c的第一反射面521a在长度方向L2上的投影长度随着远离入光面503而渐增,而导光微结构520a、导光微结构520b与导光微结构520c的第二反射面521b在长度方向L2上的投影长度随着远离入光面503而渐减,使得P1>P2>P3。具体而言,邻近入光面503的导光微结构520a的第一反射面521a在长度方向L2的投影长度a1较短且面积较小,故可降低全反射的比例,减少长光程的光线;邻近入光面503的导光微结构520a的第二反射面521b的投影长度b1较长且面积较大,故可增加从此处射出导光板500的光线比例,增加短光程的光线,因此可在靠近入光面503的区域提供较高比例的光程较短的光线,进一步改善靠近入光面503的区域出现暗带的情况。另一方面,由于导光板500远离入光面503的位置已不需要再利用短光程的光线来改善暗带,因此,可将导光微结构520设计成以长光程的光线产出为主,使得导光微结构520c的第二反射面521b的投影长度b3较短、面积较小,而导光微结构520的第一反射面521a的投影长度a3较长、面积较大,以符合导光板500远离入光面503的位置的出光需求。
在图5的实施例中,导光微结构520a、导光微结构520b与导光微结构520c的比值P1、P2、P3亦可根据需求而设计成相等。借此,光程较长及光程较短的光线沿着长度方向L2的分配比例固定,使导光板500的模具易于制作,这有利于降低生产成本。
另请参照图6,其是绘示依照本揭露的一实施方式的显示装置的装置示意图。本实施方式的显示装置600包含如图1所示的背光模组100以及显示面板610、至少一个膜片620、以及反射片370。如图6所示,膜片620 设置在背光模组100的导光板300的前方(出光侧),反射片370则设置在背光模组100的导光板300的后方,显示面板610设置在膜片620的出光侧。借此,显示装置600借助于导光板300上的条状微结构350以及导光微结构360的设计,同样可达到调整导光板300的光线的行径方向与出光方向,进而达到控制出光视角的目的。其中,本案实施例以图1所示的背光模组100应用于显示装置600中仅用来示范说明,并非限制本发明。前述其他实施例的导光板(例如导光板400或导光板500)均可应用于显示装置中,以产生同样的效果。
由上述本揭露实施方式可知,本揭露通过具有双侧面与作用面的条状微结构来改变光线在导光板中的行径路径,并结合导光微结构来调配光线的出光位置与出光量,故可达到调整出光视角与提升整体出光均匀度的目的。
虽然本揭露的实施例已揭露如上,然其并非用以限定本揭露,任何所属技术领域人员,在不脱离本揭露的实施例的精神和范围内,应当可以做出些许更动与润饰,故本揭露的实施例的保护范围应当以所附的权利要求书所界定的保护范围为准。
