Abstract:
A backlight assembly includes a receiving container, a flat fluorescent lamp and a heat generating sheet. The flat fluorescent lamp is received in the receiving container. The flat fluorescent lamp includes a plurality of discharge spaces to generate light. The heat generating sheet is positioned adjacent to the flat fluorescent lamp, for example, under the flat fluorescent lamp, to supply the flat fluorescent lamp with heat. The heat generating sheet corresponds to an effective light emitting region of the flat fluorescent lamp where the light is emitted. As a result, heat is provided to the flat fluorescent lamp, thereby decreasing a time for stabilizing a luminance and improving light emitting characteristics.
Abstract:
A backlight assembly includes a light emitting part, a light guide plate and a lower receiving container. The light guide plate includes a side surface and a light exiting surface. The lower receiving container includes a heat sinking part and a rigid part having a strength greater than the heat sinking part.
Abstract:
Provided is a liquid crystal display (LCD) with improved heat dissipation and reduced thickness. The LCD includes for an embodiment: a lower housing; a heat-dissipating member which is disposed in the lower housing; a plurality of point light sources which are disposed on the heat-dissipating member; a plurality of electric wires which supply power to the point light sources; and a light guide plate (LGP) which is disposed in the lower housing in such a way that side surfaces of the LGP face the point light sources.
Abstract:
An LCD module including an LCD panel and a backlight unit disposed under the LCD panel is provided. The backlight unit has a bottom chassis, a lamp, a socket, and a balance board. The bottom chassis receives the lamp, the socket, and the balance board therein. The balance board is fixed to the bottom chassis. The socket is coupled with the balance board and the lamp.
Abstract:
A lamp socket that can reduce the thickness of both sides of a display device includes a socket main body having a contact hole formed therein, and a power-applying member coupled to the socket main body through the contact hole, and provided with a lamp connection terminal, an inverter connection terminal, and a terminal connection part connected with the lamp connection terminal in a bent form so as to connect the lamp connection terminal with the inverter connection terminal. Accordingly, the thickness of both sides of the display device including the lamp sockets is reduced, and the compatibility of the product is extended.
Abstract:
A backlight assembly includes a flat fluorescent lamp, a buffering member and a bottom chassis. The flat fluorescent lamp includes a lamp body generating light and an electrode portion formed on the lamp body. The buffering member contacts the electrode portion and includes at least one hole. The bottom chassis includes a bottom plate and a sidewall to receive the flat fluorescent lamp and the buffering member and includes at least one hole.
Abstract:
A backlight assembly includes a surface light source device, an optical member, a supporting member and a receiving container. The surface light source device includes a first substrate and a second substrate facing the first substrate to form a light-emitting region and a non-emitting region. The surface light source device generates light. The optical member enhances optical properties of the light generated by the surface light source device. The supporting member is disposed at the non-emitting region of the surface light source device to support the optical member. The receiving container receives the surface light source device and the optical member. Advantageously, sagging of the optical member is reduced, or effectively prevented, to enhance display quality.
Abstract:
In a backlight assembly that provides improved luminance uniformity and a LCD device having the same, the backlight assembly includes a flat fluorescent lamp and a receiving container. The receiving container has a bottom plate and sidewalls to receive the surface light source. The bottom plate includes openings that overlap the outermost lateral discharge spaces located along the edges of the flat fluorescent lamp. The openings are formed at corner portions of the bottom plate and extend parallel to the discharge spaces of the lamp. The backlight assembly further includes a buffer member interposed between the flat fluorescent lamp and the receiving container to support the flat fluorescent lamp. The buffer member includes protrusions couplable to holes of the receiving container, allowing the buffer member to be firmly secured to the receiving container. The device decreases current leakage of the surface light source, thus improving luminance uniformity.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and a device for guiding light, and a back light assembly and a liquid crystal display device having the device for guiding light for reducing a bright line appearing in a liquid crystal display panel. When the ridge of the prism light guide plate, which is disposed adjacent to the light incident face is formed round; when a shape of the lamp cover is transformed to cover an upper edge portion of the light guide plate; when the light-shielding member is attached on a region of the light luminance control member, that is disposed adjacent to the light incident face of the light guide plate; and when the light incident face of the light guide plate is disposed as far from a border of an active display region as possible, the bright line is reduced.
