Abstract

Disclosed are a back light assembly for preventing discoloration and deformation caused by heat generated from a lamp, and a liquid crystal display device for displaying an enhanced image. The back light assembly includes a receiving container, a lamp, a glass substrate and a diffuser. The receiving container has a receiving space. The lamp for generating the light is disposed in the receiving space. The glass substrate is interposed between the liquid crystal display panel and the lamp. The diffuser diffuses the light generated by the lamp so as to unify a luminance distribution of the liquid crystal display panel. The liquid crystal display device includes the back light assembly.

Claims (22)

1. A display device, comprising:

a first receiving container including a bottom face, a sidewall and a receiving plate defining first, second and third plates extending at least partially around an upper peripheral region thereof, the bottom face and the sidewall forming a receiving space, and the second plate being disposed above the first plate and having an inner edge generally coincident with or disposed outside of an outer edge of the first plate, the third plate having a receiving surface parallel to the second plate;

a light source disposed in the receiving space and generating a light;

an optical plate disposed above the light source;

a display panel assembly disposed above the optical plate and displaying an image; and

a second receiving container disposed on the first receiving container,

wherein the first plate is non-overlapped with the second plate, and

wherein the optical plate is disposed on the second plate.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the display panel is disposed on the second receiving container.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the second receiving container comprises a protrusion.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the optical plate comprises a glass substrate blocking a heat.

5. The display device of claims 4 , wherein the optical plate further comprises a diffusion sheet.

6. A back light assembly, comprising:

a first receiving container having a receiving space and a receiving plate defining first, second and third plates extending at least partially about an upper peripheral region thereof, the second plate being disposed above the first plate and having an inner edge generally coincident with or disposed outside of an outer edge of the first plate, the third plate having a flat portion parallel to the second plate;

a lamp disposed in the receiving space, for generating the light;

an optical plate disposed above the lamp;

a second receiving container disposed on the first receiving container,

wherein the first plate is non-overlapped with the second plate, and

wherein the optical plate is disposed on the second plate.

7. The backlight assembly of claim 6 , wherein the second receiving container comprises a protrusion.

8. The backlight assembly of claim 6 , wherein the optical plate comprises a glass substrate blocking a heat.

9. The backlight assembly of claim 6 , wherein the optical plate further comprises a diffusion sheet.
