Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of liquid crystal display, and in particular to a light guide plate having a coating and a backlight module having the same. Background technique
- Liquid crystal display has many advantages such as thin body, power saving, and no radiation, and has been widely used.
- Most of the liquid crystal display devices on the market are backlight type liquid crystal display devices, which include a liquid crystal panel and a backlight module.
- the working principle of the liquid crystal panel is to place liquid crystal molecules in two parallel glass substrates. There are many vertical and horizontal small wires between the two glass substrates, and the liquid crystal molecules are controlled to change direction by energization or not, and the light of the backlight module is refracted. Come out to produce the picture. Since the liquid crystal panel itself does not emit light, the light source provided by the backlight module needs to be used to display the image normally. Therefore, the backlight module becomes one of the key components of the liquid crystal display device.
- the backlight module is divided into a side-in backlight module and a direct-lit backlight module according to different incident positions of the light source.
- a light source such as a CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) or an LED (Light Emitting Diode) is disposed behind the liquid crystal panel to directly form a surface light source for the liquid crystal panel.
- the side-lit backlight module has a backlight LED strip (Light bar) disposed on the edge of the back panel behind the liquid crystal panel, and the light emitted by the LED strip light enters the light from the side of the light guide plate (LGP, Light Guide Plate). The surface enters the light guide plate, is reflected and diffused, and is emitted from the light exit surface of the light guide plate, and is supplied to the liquid crystal panel through the optical film group to form a surface light source.
- LGP Light Guide Plate
- the narrow-frame backlight module has also become a trend in the future.
- the width of the optical film set 200 pressed under the plastic frame 300 is narrow, but in order to ensure that the optical film set 200 does not
- the backlight module is slid out, and the general optical film set 200 directly extends to the edge of the light guide plate 400.
- the light incident side of the light guide plate 400 directly enters the optical film group 200 due to the light of the LED light bar 100, and is directly emitted after being reflected.
- the existing common practice is to design a retaining wall 302 on the plastic frame 300.
- the optical film set 200 is attracted to the light guide plate 400, which changes the total internal reflection of light in the light guide plate 400, resulting in light.
- Directly entering the optical film set 200 from the light guide plate 400 (the direction of light propagation is indicated by an arrow) forms a bright line on the light incident side of the light guide plate 400, and is liable to cause light loss.
- the experimental research shows that the reason why the optical film group and the light guide plate absorb light leakage is that the refractive index of the light guide plate is close to that of the optical film.
- the refractive index of PMMA It is 1.49
- the refractive index of PET is greater than 1.50. Therefore, when light is emitted from the light guide plate to the contact interface, the light is transmitted from the light-diffusing medium to the light-tight medium, and the light does not totally reflect, but enters the optical film, thereby causing light leakage.
- the non-light-incident side surface of the light guide plate 400 in order to prevent light from being emitted from the side surface of the light guide plate 400, usually adheres to the side reflection sheet 500, and the function is to pass the light emitted from the side surface of the light guide plate 400 to the side.
- the reflective sheet 500 is reflected back to the light guide plate to increase the utilization of light.
- the interface between the side reflection sheet 400 and the light guide plate 400 is not a smooth interface, light is diffused and reflected at the interface, causing light leakage. Summary of the invention

Description
导光板及具有该导光板的背光模组 技术领域
本发明涉及液晶显示领域, 尤其涉及一种具有涂层的导光板及具有该 导光板的背光模组。 背景技术
液晶显示装置(LCD, Liquid Crystal Display )具有机身薄、 省电、 无 辐射等众多优点, 得到了广泛的应用。 现有市场上的液晶显示装置大部分 为背光型液晶显示装置, 其包括液晶面板及背光模组 ( backlight module ) 。 液晶面板的工作原理是在两片平行的玻璃基板当中放置液晶分 子, 两片玻璃基板中间有许多垂直和水平的细小电线, 通过通电与否来控 制液晶分子改变方向, 将背光模组的光线折射出来产生画面。 由于液晶面 板本身不发光, 需要借由背光模组提供的光源来正常显示影像, 因此, 背 光模组成为液晶显示装置的关键组件之一。 背光模组依照光源入射位置的 不同分成侧入式背光模组与直下式背光模组两种。 直下式背光模组是将发 光光源例如 CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp , 阴极萤光灯管)或 LED(Light Emitting Diode发光二极管)设置在液晶面板后方, 直接形成面 光源提供给液晶面板。 而侧入式背光模组是将背光源 LED 灯条(Light bar ) 设于液晶面板侧后方的背板边缘, LED 灯条发出的光线从导光板 ( LGP , Light Guide Plate ) 一侧的入光面进入导光板, 经反射和扩散后 从导光板出光面射出, 在经由光学膜片组, 以形成面光源提供给液晶面 板。
请参阅图 1 , 随着 LED灯条 100作为背光源的发展, 窄边框背光模组 也成为未来发展的趋势。 为了追逐窄边框的设计, 同时保证光学膜片组 200 ( films ) 的信赖性, 在胶框 300 下压附的光学膜片组 200 的宽度很 窄, 但为了保证光学膜片组 200不会从背光模组中滑出, 一般光学膜片组 200会直接伸到与导光板 400边缘。 这样导光板 400的入光侧会因为 LED 灯条 100的光线直接进入光学膜片组 200中, 经过反射后直接射出。
为了解决上述问题, 现有的通用做法为在胶框 300,上设计挡墙 302,
(如图 2所示) , 以阻止光线直接射入光学膜片组 200中。
然而, 如图 3所示, 由于胶框 300,的压附作用, 光学膜片组 200会与 导光板 400吸附在一起, 改变了光线在导光板 400中的内全反射, 导致光
从导光板 400 中直接射入光学膜片组 200 中 (光线传播方向如箭头所 示) , 在导光板 400入光侧形成亮线, 且易造成光的损耗。
经试研究表明, 光学膜片组与导光板吸附产生漏光的原因是, 导光板 的折射率与光学膜片接近, 以 PMMA材质的导光板与 PET材质的光学膜 片为例, PMMA的折射率为 1.49, 而 PET的折射率为大于 1.50。 因此当 光线从导光板射向该接触界面时, 光是从光疏介质传向光密介质, 光线不 会发生全反射, 而会进入光学膜片, 从而导致漏光。
另, 如图 4 所示, 为了防止光线从导光板 400 的侧面射出, 导光板 400 的非入光侧面通常会贴附侧反射片 500, 其作用是将从导光板 400侧 面射出的光线经侧反射片 500反射回导光板, 增加光线的利用率。 但由于 侧反射片 400与导光板 400贴附的界面并非光滑的界面, 光线在此界面会 发生漫反射, 造成漏光。 发明内容
本发明的目的在于提供一种导光板, 其顶面设有涂层, 可将传播到导 光板顶面的光线反射回导光板, 提高导光板的光照强度及均匀度。
