Illumination apparatus, display apparatus, and electronic device
View Patent ↗In an illumination apparatus, a plurality of light-emitting elements are mounted to one surface (a first surface) of a light source substrate. The light source substrate is anchored to a substrate support portion using a screw that is tightened down into the substrate support portion from the opposite side as the light source substrate. Meanwhile, the light source substrate includes a metallic plate that configures another surface (a second surface) and a flexible wiring board that is affixed to the metallic plate on the side of the one surface (the first surface), and a through-hole that passes through the metallic plate is formed, as the hole for tightening down the screw, in the location of the light source substrate in which the screw is tightened.
1. An illumination apparatus comprising:
a light guiding plate;
a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed along a side-end surface of the light guiding plate that serves as a light-entry portion, each of the plurality of light-emitting elements has a light-emitting surface facing toward the side-end surface;
a light source substrate that extends along a direction which the side-end surface extends, a first surface of the light source substrate on which the plurality of light-emitting elements are mounted, and a second surface which is another surface of the light source substrate that opposes the first surface;
a substrate support portion which has a third surface that faces the second surface and a fourth surface that opposes the third surface; and
a screw that tightens the light source substrate to the substrate support portion from the fourth surface without being exposed on the first surface of the light source substrate,
wherein the light source substrate includes a first substrate that configures the second surface and a second substrate that configures the first surface; and
a through-hole that passes through the first substrate but does not pass through the second substrate, the through-hole being formed in a location of the light source substrate where the screw is tightened down.
2. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the through-hole is formed in a location that does not overlap with locations where the plurality of light-emitting elements are mounted.
3. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first substrate is a metallic plate, and the second substrate is a flexible wiring board that is affixed to the first substrate on a side of the first surface.
4. The illumination apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a metallic layer is formed in a region of the flexible wiring board that overlaps with the through-hole.
5. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a side-end surface of the first substrate and a side-end surface of the second substrate are cut surfaces that are continuous with each other.
6. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the through-hole is a screw hole.
7. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate support portion is made of a metal.
8. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first substrate is thicker than the second substrate.
9. The illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first surface of the light source substrate opposes the light-entry portion.
10. A display apparatus provided with the illumination apparatus according to claim 1 , the display apparatus comprising:
a display panel disposed overlapping a light-emitting surface side of the light guiding plate.
11. An electronic apparatus comprising the display apparatus according to claim 10 .
