Description of the Invention [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a light guide plate and a backlight module used in the field of liquid crystal display, and more particularly to a side light type light guide plate and a backlight module. [Prior Art] [0002] The Light Guide Plate (LGP) mainly includes a light incident surface, a reflective surface, an exit surface, and several side surfaces, and is an important component in a liquid crystal display backlight module system. Its function is to guide the light emitted by a scattered point source (such as a light-emitting diode) or a line source (such as a cold cathode tube) to exit from a plane while improving the uniformity of the panel luminance and luminance. The light guide plate is generally made of a synthetic resin material, and the shape of the substrate is divided into a flat plate type and a wedge type curved surface type. [0003] The light entering the light guide plate will propagate in the plate according to the principle of full emission. When the light encounters the pattern of the surface of the light guide plate, the full emission condition is destroyed, and the light is emitted from the front surface of the light guide plate, and is dense and small. Different microstructures can make the light guide plate emit light uniformly. Light guide plate microstructure manufacturing technology can be divided into two categories: printed and non-printed. The former uses the screen printing method to print the ink on the light guide plate to make the microstructure shape and fractal. The latter is directly in the injection molding technology, the microstructure is designed in the mold, the production is simplified, and the precision is high, which is the mainstream of the current light guide plate technology. Non-printing methods are further divided into: chemical (10) method, misdirected direct writing method and precision machining method.

Energy consumption, thinning and so on. As shown in the first figure, the conventional backlight module 10 includes an optical film such as a light source 11, a light guide plate 13 and a reflection plate 12, a diffusion sheet 14, and a brightness enhancement sheet 15. The reflection sheet 12 re-introduces the unscattered light into the light guide plate 13. The diffusion sheet 14 diffuses the light and uniformly diffuses, eliminating the bright region formed by the microstructure on the light guide plate, and the brightness enhancement sheet 15 converges the light and improves The role of brightness. [0006] However, from the perspective of the exit of the light beam, the design of the light guide plate described above does not take into account the angle control, so that the light beam emerging from the exit surface of the light guide plate will be away from the light source and not perpendicular to the exit surface. After passing through the optical film such as the diffusion sheet and the brightness enhancement sheet, such a light beam is directed toward the LCD in a direction perpendicular to the exit surface to meet practical use requirements.

[0008] However, the light guide plate of the backlight device has no angle control function, so an optical film such as a brightness enhancement sheet or a diffusion sheet is additionally applied so that the final emitted light can be emitted vertically. In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a light guide plate capable of emitting a vertical exit surface without emitting an optical film, and a backlight module using the same.

[0027] In use, part of the light emitted by the light source 40 enters the light guide plate 30 through the incident surface 31, reaches the V-shaped microstructure 320 of the reflective surface 32 and generates reflection, and is emitted from the exit surface 33 in a direction perpendicular to the exit surface 33. . In the present embodiment, the apex angle θ 1 of the V-shaped microstructure 320 is 65 degrees, the larger first base angle 0 2 is 85 degrees, and the smaller second base angle 03 is 30 degrees. [0029] In addition, in order to improve the uniformity of the emitted light, the size of the plurality of V-type microstructures 320 is arranged from small to large in a direction away from the incident surface 31. That is, the V-shaped microstructure 320 near the light source is smaller, and the V-shaped microstructure 320 far from the light source is larger. It should be noted that the incremental manner of the size of the V-type microstructure 320 is generally nonlinear, and will be specifically designed according to the material characteristics of the light guide plate and the uniformity of the emitted light brightness. The increment method can be expressed by the following formula: 093127585 Form number Α 0101 Page 8 / Total 26 page 1003281617-0 1360689 100'08 04 Nuclear verification [0030] y = 0. 0001χ2 + 〇. 〇〇〇5χ + 〇 〇〇23; [0031] wherein the average distance between the X-type V-type microstructure 320 and the entrance face 31, and the y-line 320 microstructure width value, increases as x increases. It should be noted that the minimum width L of each of the V-type microstructures 320 is preferably at 1 〇 micron' but may be less than 1 〇 micron depending on the level of processing. The maximum width L can be 200 micrometers, so that the V5i microstructures 320 on the light guide plate 30 are not easily seen by the human eye, so that the diffusion sheet which causes a large energy loss can be removed. The V-shaped microstructure of this embodiment can be removed. The width of 32 l is a minimum of 1 μm and a maximum of 112 μm. [0033] At the same time, the complex V-type microstructures 320 are arranged in a direction away from the incident surface 31 from the dense to dense arrangement. That is, the closer the arrangement density is to the light source 40, the more sparse, and the spacing between each adjacent two V-shaped microstructures 32 is larger; the farther away from the light source 40, the closer the density is, and the spacing between each adjacent two V-type microstructures 320 is smaller. [0034] In the actual use process, if the light guide plate 30 has a phenomenon that the partial light transmittance is high, the size of the V-type microstructure can be reduced and the arrangement density of the V-type microstructure can be reduced; otherwise, if the local light transmittance is low It is possible to increase the size of the V-type microstructure and increase the arrangement density of the V-type microstructure. [0035] In order to facilitate the precision machining, the V-shaped microstructure 320 of the present embodiment is designed as a prismatic type, extending along one side of the incident surface 31 to the opposite side thereof, 'continuous without fracture. In the microstructure 320, any of its vertices is at the same height from the plane of the reflecting surface. At the same time, the respective V-type microstructures 320 are arranged in parallel with each other. [0036] The light guide plate is generally made of a synthetic resin material, and the material of the light guide plate 30 of the present embodiment is a polymethyl methacrylate β antireflection film 36-based metal or 093127585. Form No. 1010101 Page 9 of 26 1003281617-0 1360689 [0038] [0040] [0041] 100 years Ό August 04 every time the quality of the coating, such as aluminum film. The reflective surface 32 includes a raised V-shaped microstructure 320'. The over-plating process has a high reflectivity. In order to improve the energy utilization rate, the three sides except the incident surface 31 should also have a high reflectance, which can be achieved by plating the anti-reflection film 36. Light source 40 can be a point source, such as a light emitting diode, or a line source, such as a cold cathode tube. The light source 40 is mounted in a U-shaped lamp cover 41. The opening of the type II lamp cover 41 is opposite to the incident surface 31 of the light guide plate 30 for preventing light leakage and allowing the light to enter the light guide plate 30 through the incident surface 31. . Please refer to the sixth and seventh figures together, which reflects the angular distribution of the outgoing beam. It can be seen that the angles of the two directions are all within 30 degrees, and most of the light beams are emitted in a direction perpendicular to the exit surface 33 of the light guide plate 30. Please refer to the eighth and ninth figures together, which shows the change of brightness with position, and reflects the uniformity of the brightness of the light guide plate 30. The eighth picture shows the variation of the normalized brightness in the sixth picture with the distance from the distance source. The ninth picture shows the variation of the normalized brightness with position (along the direction perpendicular to the beam) in the seventh picture. It can be seen that the brightness of the light guide plate 30 is maintained at a uniformity of 82% or more in the above two directions. Referring to the tenth figure, the design of the above V-type microstructure 320 can also be applied to the wedge type light guide plate. In this embodiment, the wedge-shaped light guide plate 90 of the present invention comprises an incident surface 91, an exit surface 93, a reflecting surface 92 and the other three sides. The incident surface 91 is formed on the side of the light guide plate 90 adjacent to the light source 80. The exit surface 93 is formed on the top surface of the light guide plate 90. The reflecting surface 92 is formed on the bottom surface of the light guide plate 90, and is provided with an anti-reflection film (not shown). Similarly, the reflecting surface 92 is also formed with a plurality of V-shaped microstructures 920, Wizard 093127585 Form No. A0101 Page 10 / Total 26 Page 1003281617-0 1360689 1:00 years. 08.04. Correction_ outside of the light board 90 Raised. The range of the member angle of the V-shaped microstructure 920 and the first and second base angles formed by the plane of the reflective surface 9-2. are the same as in the previous embodiment. [0042] In use, part of the light emitted by the light source 80 enters the light guide plate 90 through the incident surface 91, reaches the V-shaped microstructure 920 of the reflective surface 92 and generates reflection, and is emitted from the exit surface 93 in a direction perpendicular to the exit surface 93. . It is worth noting that the backlight module consisting mainly of the side light source and the light guide plate 30 or 90 removes the reflection sheet, the diffusion sheet and the brightness enhancement sheet of the conventional backlight film group. The optical film is controlled and the outgoing light can be controlled in the direction of the vertical exit surface to realize the function of the conventional backlight film set, which is also the subject of the claimed invention. [0044] The invention controls the angle of the V-shaped microstructure and the reflecting surface with high reflection characteristics, and can conveniently control the light emitted from the light guide plate in the direction of the vertical exit surface, thereby maximizing the utilization of light energy. Such a light guide plate functionally improves brightness, and structurally removes an optical film such as a reflection sheet, a diffusion sheet, and a brightness enhancement sheet of the conventional backlight film group, simplifies the system and improves performance. [0045] At the same time, the present invention adjusts the V shape. The distribution and density of the microstructure can control the uniformity of the brightness of the emitted light, so that the uniformity in the two directions of vertical and parallel light source propagation is above 82%, and the half-width of the beam exit angle in these two directions is less than 30 It can be seen that most of the light beam is emitted in a direction perpendicular to the exit surface of the light guide plate.
