Abstract:
An exemplary orienting structure includes two locating units, a first supporting bump, and a second supporting bump. Each of the locating units includes a first portion and a second portion perpendicular to the first portion. The first supporting bump and the locating units cooperatively define a sliding track configured for slidingly receiving a male connector. A female connector is disposed on the second supporting bump and aligned with the sliding track. The first portions of the locating units function as guides for blocking movement along a first axis of the sliding track. The first supporting bump in cooperation with the second portions of the locating units function as guides for blocking movement along a second axis of the sliding track. When the male connector is slid along the sliding track, the sliding is in a direction perpendicular to both the first and second axes of the sliding track.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (2) includes a liquid crystal panel (29); a backlight module (20) providing light beams to the liquid crystal panel. The backlight module includes a light guide plate (23) having at least one light incident surface (231), and a light emitting surface (232) adjoining the at least one light incident surface; at least one light source (21) disposed adjacent to the at least one light incident surface; a prism sheet (25) disposed at the light emitting surface for converging light beams; and a first diffuser (26) disposed at the prism sheet for scattering the light beams therethrough. A haze ratio of the first diffuser changes according to the brightness differentia over a brightness distribution of the prism sheet for attaining a substantially uniform surface light beams output.
Abstract:
An optical film includes an outer surface, a plurality of protrusions protruding from the outer surface and extending substantially parallel to a first axis, a plurality of grooves formed at neighboring protrusions; and two barrier members arranged at opposite sides of the optical film substantially parallel to a second axis. The first axis is substantially perpendicular to the second axis. The two barrier members prevent each slot from communicating with the exterior of the optical film continuously.
Abstract:
An exemplary backlight module includes a frame including a light-emitting opening, light tubes accommodated in the frame and disposed corresponding to the light-emitting opening, and covers. Each light tube includes a bent portion, and the covers are fitted on the corresponding bent portions of the light tubes. A liquid crystal display device using the backlight module is also provided.
Abstract:
An exemplary backlight module (20) includes a lamp (231), a power supply for providing power to the lamp, and a frame (27) for receiving the lamp. The frame includes at least one lamp connecting mechanism. Each lamp connecting mechanism includes two electrical connecting tubes drill through the frame. Two ends of each lamp are electrically connected to the connecting tubes respectively at an inner side of the frame. Both of the connecting tubes are electrically connected to the power supply.
Abstract:
An exemplary liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal panel, and a plastic frame accommodating the liquid crystal panel. The liquid crystal panel includes a display region, and peripheral regions adjacent to the display region. The plastic frame includes an opening defined in portions where a first side wall is located, two second side walls adjacent to the first side wall, two sliding guides defined at opposite inner sides of portions of the plastic frame that are adjacent to the second side walls, and a stopping board. The opening allows the liquid crystal panel to be inserted into the plastic frame therethrough. The sliding guides communicate with the opening, and are allow the liquid crystal panel to slide into the plastic frame therealong. The stopping board abuts the peripheral regions of the liquid crystal panel for limiting the liquid crystal panel from undesirably departing from the plastic frame.
