Abstract:
The present invention provides a lighting device configured to produce light with a substantially averaged overall color. The lighting device 12 of the present invention includes a plurality of point light sources 17 and a chassis 14 that houses the point light sources 17. The point light sources 17 are classified in two or more color ranges A, B, and C according to colors of light. Each color range has a range defined by a square with sides each having a length of 0.01 in the EIC 1931 color space chromaticity diagram. The point light sources 17 in the different color ranges A, B, and C are housed in the chassis 14.

Abstract:
An illuminating device includes a hot-cathode fluorescent tube (discharge tube) and a light emitting surface that emits light from the hot-cathode fluorescent tube. An auxiliary light emitting portion is provided in the vicinity of a non-lighting region of the hot-cathode fluorescent tube. The auxiliary light emitting portion includes an optical fiber having an incident portion for receiving light from the hot-cathode fluorescent tube, and a light guide plate that receives light from the optical fiber and emits the incident light toward the light emitting surface.

Abstract:
Provided is a backlight device which can suppress a damage of a display panel or a diffusion sheet while suppressing the size of the device. The backlight device (20) includes: a diffusion sheet (25); and a support member (31) having a support plane (31a) for supporting the diffusion sheet and arranged below the diffusion sheet. The diffusion sheet has a center of gravity (G1) set at the arrow C direction, i.e., at the side opposite to a liquid crystal display panel (12) as compared to a contact position (tip end (P1)) between the lower surface (25d) of the diffusion sheet and the support plane of the support member when the diffusion sheet is not warped.
Abstract:
Uneven brightness is less likely to occur in lighting devices. A lighting device includes a light source unit U, light guide blocks 31 to 35, a chassis 60, and positioning portions S. The light source unit U includes a plurality sets of light sources P arranged along a centerline Lc. Each set of light sources P is a pair of LEDs 45 disposed so as to be equally distanced from the centerline Lc and face each other. The light guide blocks 31 to 35, each provided corresponding to each one of the sets of light sources P, are disposed between the set of light sources P. The light sources have two end surfaces E in a longitudinal direction that face the LEDs 45. The chassis 60 houses the light source unit U and the light guide blocks 31 to 35. The positioning portions S position a middle portion of the respective light guide blocks 31 to 35 in the longitudinal direction on the centerline Lc.

Abstract:
An air cleaning system for an engine includes a main air cleaner for supplying cleaned air to an intake system of the engine and a sub-air cleaner for supplying cleaned air to an exhaust system of the engine. The main air cleaner includes a main air cleaner housing divided into a dirty air chamber and a clean air chamber by a first air cleaning element. The sub-air cleaner is disposed in the dirty air chamber, and has its own second air cleaning element, physically separated from the first air cleaning element.
Abstract:
The invention is intended to provide a lighting device that shortens time required to obtain peak brightness. A backlight unit 16 according to the invention includes: cold cathode tubes 22 as a light source; a chassis 18 housing the cold cathode tubes 22; a reflection sheet 21 disposed within the chassis 18 and reflecting light; and a heat insulator 27 disposed between the chassis 18 and the reflection sheet 21. Because the heat insulator 27 is disposes between the chassis 18 and the reflection sheet 21, heat in the chassis 18 is less likely to escape to the outside. Therefore, the temperature inside the chassis 18 can be efficiently increased with the heat generated by the cold cathode tubes 22.
