摘要： A liquid crystal display apparatus includes a liquid crystal display panel having preset display characteristics, such as image brightness and contrast. A luminescent unit is optically connected with the display panel and provides light to the display panel in order to form an image on the display panel. The luminescent unit includes a light collector which collects ambient light and a light source, for generating light when the amount of ambient light is insufficient to generate a clear image. A control circuit is electrically connected to the display panel and automatically varies the preset display characteristics in accordance with the amount of ambient light collected by the light collector.

摘要： An improved liquid crystal display device of the type having a liquid crystal display panel, a light guide plate below a surface of the display panel and located between a reflecting portion and a diffusing portion, and a light collecting lens located at one end of the light guide plate for collecting and transmitting light to the light guide plate for providing backlight to the display panel. The display device includes a light transmitter located between the light collecting lens and the light guide plate. The light transmitter optically connects the light collecting lens and the light guide plate and separates the light collecting lens from the display panel by a predetermined difference. The light transmitter allows light to be more evenly distributed or reflected onto the display panel so that images displayed on the panel have a more uniform brightness.

摘要： A liquid crystal display (LCD) includes liquid crystal display panel located within a housing. A backlight source is detachably connected to the housing for providing light to the display panel. When the backlight source is removed from the housing, outside light, such as ambient light, provides light to the display panel. The LCD includes a light collecting lens which transmits light to the display panel and which is either covered by the backlight source or exposed to an external light source when the backlight source is detached from the housing. When the backlight source is detached, the LCD has a small size and light weight, making it convenient for carrying and using outdoors. The LCD also consumes less power when the backlight source is detached.

摘要： External light is introduced by a light-introducing portion to be used as a light source for a backlight, so that the power consumption of the backlight of a liquid crystal display device can be suppressed. At the same time, the brightness of the screen of the liquid crystal display device can be increased to enhance the visibility in outdoors. Therefore, the portability of a mobile information terminal can be improved. Furthermore, the light-introducing portion covers an end portion of the main unit opposed to an axis, whereby the main unit is protected so that the life period of the mobile information terminal can be prolonged. The variety of the design of the mobile information terminal can be increased by using the transparency of the light-introducing portion.
