Abstract:
A display device includes a display panel, a protective member, a light guide member, a light source, and a light leakage preventing member. The display device includes a display surface concavely curved in a first direction. The light leakage preventing member is coupled to the protective member to be movable according to expansion or contraction of the light guide member. The light leakage preventing member contracts and expands according to the expansion or contraction of the light guide member, and includes an elastic part to prevent the light source from being damaged by the expansion of the light guide member.
Abstract:
A backlight unit includes a light guide plate including a plurality of light emitting areas and a light source part providing light to the light guide part. The light guide part includes a main light guide part and a sub-light guide part formed as a single piece with the main light guide part or partially overlapped with the main light guide part. A display device includes a display panel displaying an image and the backlight unit.
Abstract:
A backlight unit includes a light source which emits light, a light guide plate which receives the light through an incident surface thereof and guides the light, and a back cover which accommodates the light source and is coupled to the light guide plate such which the incident surface is disposed in an inner space thereof, where an air guide area is defined between the light source and the light guide plate in the inner space, and the back cover includes an inclined surface inclined to the incident surface of the light guide plate in the air guide area.
Abstract:
A display device includes a display module and a protective member that accommodates the display module. The protective member includes a first curved-line part extending in a horizontal direction and curved to have a concave surface on the top, a second curved-line part spaced apart from the first curved-line part to face the first curved-line part, formed below the first curved-line part, extending in the horizontal direction, and have a concave surface on the bottom, and connection parts that connect the first curved-line part and the second curved-line part to define an opening portion through which the portion of a display area is exposed. The display area comprises a display part exposed through the opening portion to display the effective image, a first peripheral part overlapped with the first curved-line part, and a second peripheral part overlapped with the second curved-line part.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a curved display panel having a first curvature; and a plurality of light source units arranged along the first curvature the display panel. Each light source unit includes a reflective part including a reflective upper surface which has a second curvature different from the first curvature of the display panel; and a light source part which is at a first side of the reflective part, and includes a light source which generates and provides a light to the reflective surface.
Abstract:
A spacer member is provided within a display apparatus that includes a heat-emitting light source and a thermally deformable light guide plate. In one embodiment, the spacer member includes a pair of spacer members disposed at sides of the light source and engaging the light guide plate so as to space the light source from a light receiving incident surface of the PGP by a predetermined distance.
Abstract:
A backlight unit includes a light source which emits a first light, a light guide bar extending in a first direction, where the light guide bar receives the first light through an incident surface thereof, and guides the first light to convert the first light to a second light, and a control pattern disposed on a surface of the light guide bar, which extends in the first direction, where the control pattern converts the second light to a third light, and has a shape extending in the first direction to control an exit angle of the third light.
