Abstract

A display device includes a display panel having an active display area, an optical film set, a light source module, and a frame. The light source module includes a light guide plate (LGP) and a light source adjacent to a side surface of the LGP. The optical film set is located between the display panel and the LGP. The frame disposed between the LGP and the optical film set extends to the LGP and covers a portion of the LGP. The frame has a first surface carrying the optical film set, a second surface facing to the light emitting surface, and a chamfered inclined surface. The chamfered inclined surface is within the active display area and connects the first and second surfaces. An extending distance of the first surface in the active display area is smaller than an extending distance of the second surface in the active display area.

Claims (10)

1. A display device, comprising:

a display panel, having an active display area;

an optical film set;

a light source module, comprising a light guide plate and a light source, wherein the light source is adjacent to a side surface of the light guide plate, the optical film set is located between the display panel and the light guide plate, and a light emitting surface of the light guide plate faces to the optical film set; and

a frame, disposed between the light guide plate and the optical film set, and extending to the light guide plate and covering a portion of the light guide plate, wherein the frame has a first surface, a second surface, and a chamfered inclined surface, the first surface carries the optical film set, the second surface faces to the light emitting surface, the chamfered inclined surface is located within the active display area and is connected to the first surface and the second surface, and an extending distance of the first surface in the active display area is smaller than an extending distance of the second surface in the active display area, the optical film set has a third surface, the third surface faces to the display panel, and an extending direction of the chamfered inclined surface passes through an orthogonal projection of a border of the active display area on the third surface.

2. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a casing, wherein the display panel and the optical film set are confined between the first surface of the frame and the casing, and the light guide plate is confined between the second surface of the frame and the casing.

3. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the frame has a reflection layer on the chamfered inclined surface.

4. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a material of the frame comprises a transparent material.

5. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a gap exists between the light emitting surface and the optical film set.

6. The display device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the casing comprises an outer frame, the outer frame comprises a border frame portion, and the border frame portion covers a portion of the display panel, wherein the border frame portion covers a portion of the frame, and the frame extends outside the border frame portion and towards the active display area.
