Direct type backlight assembly
View Patent ↗A direct type backlight assembly is disclosed, in which a lamp guide is formed in a shape which can absorb an external force to prevent distortion from occurring from contact between the lamp guide and a diffusion plate, and to prevent the diffusion plate from being damaged. The direct type backlight assembly includes a light-emission lamp provided under an LCD panel; a reflecting plate provided on the bottom side of the light-emission lamp; a diffusion plate provided above the light-emission lamp; optical sheets provided on the diffusion plate; and a lamp guide provided on and connected with the reflecting plate, wherein the lamp guide has a supporter having a compression structure, the height thereof varying based on a load applied thereto.
1. A backlight assembly comprising:
at least one lamp;
a diffusion plate provided above the lamp;
a lamp guide, wherein the lamp guide has a supporter formed in shape of a wave, and wherein the supporter supports the diffusion plate.
2. The backlight assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a reflecting plate disposed under the lamp guide, wherein the supporter is formed of a material having substantially the same reflectivity as the reflecting plate.
3. The backlight assembly of claim 2 , wherein the supporter is formed at least one of polycarbonate (PC) or metal.
4. The backlight assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a reflecting plate disposed under the lamp guide, wherein the lamp guide has a holder which maintains a predetermined distance between the lamp and the reflecting plate.
5. The backlight assembly of claim 4 , wherein the supporter is formed integrally with the holder.
6. The backlight assembly of claim 5 , wherein the lamp guide is provided with one supporter and at least one holder.
7. The backlight assembly of claim 1 , further comprising optical sheets disposed on the diffusion plate.
8. The backlight assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a reflecting plate disposed under the lamp guide, wherein the at least one lamp is displaced from the reflecting plate by a distance of about 4˜6mm.
9. A backlight assembly comprising:
at least one lamp provided under an liquid crystal display (LCD) panel including two opposite substrates and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the two opposite substrates;
a reflecting plate disposed below the lamp;
a diffusion plate disposed above the lamp; and
a lamp guide disposed between the reflecting plate and the lamp, wherein the lamp guide has a supporter formed in shape of a wave, and wherein the supporter supports the diffusion plate.
10. The backlight assembly of claim 9 , wherein the supporter is formed of a material having reflecting properties substantially the same as that of the reflecting plate.
11. The backlight assembly of claim 9 , wherein the lamp guide has a holder to maintain a predetermined distance between the light-emission lamp and the reflecting plate.
12. The backlight assembly of claim 11 , wherein the supporter is formed integrally with the holder.
13. The backlight assembly of claim 12 , wherein the lamp guide is provided with one supporter and at least one holder.
14. The backlight assembly of claim 9 , further comprising optical sheets disposed on the diffusion plate.
15. The backlight assembly of claim 11 , wherein the at least one lamp is displaced from the reflecting plate by a distance of about 4˜6mm.
