摘要:
A planar light source device (10) of the present invention, includes: a plurality of light guides (21) being provided such that longer sides thereof are arranged in parallel with each other with a gap therebetween; a plurality of light sources each of which causes light to be directed from at least one of opposite end surfaces of the light guide (21) in the longitudinal direction of the light guide (21); a diffusing plate (15) being provided on a light emission side of the light guide (21) to extract light guided inside the light guide (21); and supports (31) for supporting the gap (22) between the light guides (21) at predetermined intervals. The supports (31) are made from a light-transmissive and light-scattering material. This makes it possible to provide a planar light source device that enables reduction in the occurrence of luminance unevenness caused by the support which supports the light guides.

A light source module (1) capable of preventing LED light from leaking from a gap between light-guiding members includes: light-guiding members (3) aligned in parallel with each other in a long side direction of the light-guiding members (3) with a gap between adjacent light-guiding members (3), and LEDs (4) each for causing light to be incident to at least one end face (8) of the light-guiding member (3) in the long side direction. A cross section of the light-guiding member (3) taken along a direction perpendicular to the long side direction of the light-guiding member (3) is designed such that a side edge (7) of the cross section is thinner than a central portion (9) of the cross section, and between adjacent light-guiding members (3), there is provided a light-shielding member (2) for preventing light from the LED (4) from leaking into a gap between said adjacent light-guiding members (3).
摘要:
A light source module of the present invention is configured such that there is a through hole (23) in one longitudinal end portion of a light guide (21) that constitutes a light guide plate, into which through hole (23) a positioning pin (24) for positioning an LED light source (12) and the light guide (21) fits. Further, a guide (9) is provided to the other end portion of the light guide (21), which guide (9) restrains the light guide (21) in a direction of a short side but does not restrain the light guide (21) in a direction of a long side. This makes it possible to provide a light source module that can reduce warping and cracking caused by expansion of a light guide, and an electronic apparatus including the light source module.

In order to suppress spread of light in a direction (shorter side direction) perpendicular to a direction (longer side direction) in which a light source is directed, the light source module of the present invention includes a light guide plate (20), an LED (12) for emitting light toward at least one edge surface in the longer side direction of the light guide plate (20), and a microlens group (20b) which (i) is provided on a lower surface (20c) opposite to an emission surface (20d) of the light guide plate (20) and (ii) causes light guided in the light guide plate (20) to be extracted through the emission surface (20d). The light source module further includes curved plane structures (20a) which are (i) made up of curved planes whose ridges (20e) extend in the longer side direction and (ii) provided in the emission surface (20d).
