본 발명은 직하형 액정표시장치에 관한 것으로, 특히 액정표시장치의 백라이트 유닛에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a direct type liquid crystal display device, and more particularly, to a backlight unit of a liquid crystal display device.

일반적인 액정표시장치의 화상구현원리는 액정의 광학적 이방성과 분극성질을 이용하는 것으로, 액정은 분자구조가 가늘고 길며 배열에 방향성을 갖는 이방성과 전기장 내에 놓일 경우 그 크기에 따라 분자배열의 방향이 변화되는 분극성질을 띤다. 이에 액정표시장치는 액정층을 사이에 두고 서로 마주보는 면으로 각각 전계생성전극이 형성된 한 쌍의 투명절연기판으로 이루어진 액정패널을 필수적인 구성요소로 하며, 각 전계생성전극 사이의 전기장 변화를 통해서 액정분자의 배열방향을 인위적으로 조절하고 이때 변화되는 빛의 투과율을 이용하여 여러 가지 화상을 표시한다. The image realization principle of a general liquid crystal display device uses the optical anisotropy and polarization property of the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal has a thin and long molecular structure and polarization in which the direction of the molecular array changes according to its size when placed in an electric field and an anisotropy having an orientation in the array. It has a nature. The liquid crystal display is an essential component of a liquid crystal panel composed of a pair of transparent insulating substrates, each having a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween, and having a field generating electrode formed therebetween. Various images are displayed by artificially adjusting the arrangement direction of the molecules and using the light transmittance which is changed at this time.

상기 액정패널은 자체 발광요소를 갖지 못하는 소자이므로 별도의 광원을 요구하게 된다. 이에 따라, 배면으로는 형광램프를 구비한 백라이트 유닛(Backlight unit)이 마련되어 액정패널 전면을 향해 빛을 조사하고 이를 통해서 비로소 식별 가능한 휘도의 화상이 구현된다.Since the liquid crystal panel does not have a light emitting element, it requires a separate light source. As a result, a backlight unit having a fluorescent lamp is provided on the rear surface to irradiate light toward the front of the liquid crystal panel, thereby realizing an image of identifiable luminance.

상기 백라이트 유닛은 그 조명 방식에 따라, 에지형(Edge type)과 직하형(Direct type)으로 구분된다. The backlight unit is classified into an edge type and a direct type according to its illumination method.

상기 에지형은 하나 또는 한쌍의 램프가 도광판의 일측부와 두개 또는 두쌍 의 램프가 도광판의 양측부 각각에 배치된 구조를 가지며, 상기 직하형은 수개의 램프가 도광판의 하부에 배치된 구조로, 상기 에지형은 제작이 용이한 이점을 갖는 반면, 상기 직하형은 빛의 균일도가 높은 것과 관련하여 대형 액정표시장치에 상대적으로 유리한 이점을 갖는다. The edge type has a structure in which one or a pair of lamps are disposed on one side of the light guide plate and two or two pairs of lamps on each side of the light guide plate, and the direct type is a structure in which several lamps are disposed below the light guide plate. The edge type has the advantage of being easy to manufacture, while the direct type has a relatively advantageous advantage over a large liquid crystal display in terms of high uniformity of light.

도 1은 일반적인 직하형 액정표시장치모듈을 개략적으로 도시한 도면이다. 1 is a view schematically illustrating a general direct type liquid crystal display module.

도시한 바와 같이, 일반적인 액정표시장치모듈은 액정패널(13)과 백라이트 유닛(20), 그리고 서포트메인(17)과 커버버툼(27), 탑커버(11)로 구성된다. As illustrated, a general liquid crystal display module includes a liquid crystal panel 13, a backlight unit 20, a support main 17, a cover bottom 27, and a top cover 11.

상기 백라이트 유닛(20)은 반사판(21)과, 이의 상부면에 다수의 형광램프(23)가 나란하게 배열되며, 이들 형광램프(23) 상부에는 확산판(29)과, 다수의 광학시트(19)를 포함한다. 그리고 이때 다수의 형광램프(23)는 커버버툼(27)과 체결되는 한 쌍의 램프가이드(25)에 의해 고정되며, 확산판(29)은 이의 가장자리를 테두리하여 커버버툼(27)으로 결합되는 서포트메인(17)에 의해 고정된다.The backlight unit 20 includes a reflecting plate 21 and a plurality of fluorescent lamps 23 arranged side by side on the upper surface thereof, a diffusion plate 29 and a plurality of optical sheets on the fluorescent lamp 23. 19). In this case, the plurality of fluorescent lamps 23 are fixed by a pair of lamp guides 25 fastened to the cover bottom 27, and the diffusion plate 29 is coupled to the cover bottom 27 by bordering its edges. It is fixed by the support main 17.

또한, 백라이트 유닛(20) 전방으로는 액정패널(13)이 포개어지며, 이의 가장자리를 테두리하며 커버버툼(27)에 결합되는 탑커버(11)에 의해 백라이트 유닛(20) 및 액정패널(13)이 일체로 고정된다.In addition, the liquid crystal panel 13 is stacked in front of the backlight unit 20, and the backlight unit 20 and the liquid crystal panel 13 are surrounded by the top cover 11 that is bound to the edge of the backlight unit 20 and is coupled to the cover bottom 27. This is fixed integrally.

이때, 상기 액정패널(13)의 일측에는 연성회로기판을 매개로 연결된 인쇄회로기판(15)이 구성된다. At this time, one side of the liquid crystal panel 13 is a printed circuit board 15 is connected via a flexible circuit board.

도 2는 도 1의 직하형 액정표시장치모듈의 단면도이다. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the direct type liquid crystal display module of FIG. 1.

도시한 바와 같이, 커버버툼(27), 그리고 이의 상면에 개재된 반사판(21)과, 이의 상부에 다수가 나란하게 배열된 형광램프(23) 및 이를 지지하는 램프가이드(25)와, 상기 다수의 형광램프 상부에 안착되는 확산판(29)과, 다수의 광학시트(19)를 확인할 수 있다.As shown, the cover bottom 27, and the reflecting plate 21 interposed on the upper surface thereof, the fluorescent lamp 23 arranged in parallel with a plurality on the upper portion thereof, the lamp guide 25 for supporting the same, and the plurality of The diffusion plate 29 and the plurality of optical sheets 19 seated on the fluorescent lamp of the can be confirmed.

이때, 도시하지는 않았지만, 상기 확산판(29) 및 다수의 광학시트(19)는 서포트메인에 의해 고정된다. At this time, although not shown, the diffusion plate 29 and the plurality of optical sheets 19 are fixed by the support main.

상기 확산판(29)은 다수의 형광램프(23)에서 발산된 빛을 액정패널 쪽으로 진행하도록 하고, 넓은 범위의 각도에서 입사할 수 있도록 빛을 확산시키는 역할을 한다. The diffusion plate 29 propagates the light emitted from the plurality of fluorescent lamps 23 toward the liquid crystal panel, and diffuses the light to be incident at a wide range of angles.

때문에, 상기 형광램프(23)와 확산판(29)은 일정한 거리를 두어, 형광램프(23)에서 발산되는 빛이 확산판(29) 전체에 걸쳐 균일하게 입사되도록 해야 한다. Therefore, the fluorescent lamp 23 and the diffusion plate 29 should be spaced a certain distance so that the light emitted from the fluorescent lamp 23 is uniformly incident over the entire diffusion plate (29).

그러나, 액정표시장치의 슬림화에 의해 형광램프(23)와 확산판(29)과의 거리가 짧게 형성되는 경우, 형광램프(23)에서 발산되는 빛이 짧은 거리를 진행하기 때문에 확산판(29)에 입사되는 영역이 상대적으로 작게 된다. 때문에, 확산판(29) 내에는 빛이 입사되지 않는 영역이 발생되며, 액정패널(도 1의 13) 상에도 빛이 도달하지 않는 영역이 발생되게 된다. However, when the distance between the fluorescent lamp 23 and the diffuser plate 29 is shortened by slimming the liquid crystal display device, since the light emitted from the fluorescent lamp 23 travels a short distance, the diffuser plate 29 is used. The area incident on the surface becomes relatively small. Therefore, a region where light is not incident is generated in the diffusion plate 29, and a region where light does not reach the liquid crystal panel (13 in FIG. 1) is generated.

이로 인하여, 액정패널(도 1의 13) 상에는 빛이 도달한 영역과 도달하지 않은 영역 사이에서 휘도차가 발생되어 화면상에는 형광램프(23)와 유사한 형상의 얼룩이 표시되게 되는 문제점이 있다. As a result, a luminance difference is generated between a region where light arrives and a region that does not reach the liquid crystal panel (13 in FIG. 1), thereby causing a problem that a spot similar to that of the fluorescent lamp 23 is displayed on the screen.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 액정표시장치를 슬림화로 구성하는 경우에도 빛의 확산효율을 증대시킴으로써 액정표시장치의 휘도를 균일하게 하는 것을 목적으로 한다. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to make the luminance of the liquid crystal display device uniform by increasing the light diffusion efficiency even when the liquid crystal display device is made slim.

이때, 상기 확산판(129) 하부면에는 각각의 형광램프(123)와 대응되는 위치에 형광램프(123)의 길이방향을 따라 반원형의 홈이 구성되어 있는 것을 특징으로 한다. At this time, the lower surface of the diffuser plate 129 is characterized in that the semi-circular groove is formed along the longitudinal direction of the fluorescent lamp 123 at a position corresponding to each fluorescent lamp 123.

또한, 백라이트 유닛(120) 전방으로는 액정패널(113)을 차례로 안착하며, 이의 가장자리를 테두리하며 커버버툼(127)에 결합되는 탑커버(111)에 의해 백라이트 유닛(120) 및 액정패널(113)을 일체로 고정한다.In addition, the backlight unit 120 in front of the liquid crystal panel 113 is seated in sequence, the edge of the back cover unit 127 and the backlight unit 120 and the liquid crystal panel 113 by the top cover 111 is coupled to the cover bottom 127. ) Fixed together.

이때, 상기 액정패널(113)의 일측에는 연성회로기판을 매개로 연결된 인쇄회로기판(115)이 구성된다. At this time, one side of the liquid crystal panel 113 is a printed circuit board 115 connected via a flexible circuit board.

상기 커버버툼(127)은 반사판(121)과 다수의 형광램프(123)를 수납하여 백라이트 유닛(120) 전체를 지탱하는 역할을 하고, 반사판(121)은 반사율이 큰 백색 또는 은색의 금속시트로 이루어져 형광램프(123)로부터 발생된 빛을 전방으로 반사시키게 된다.
