Display module and display apparatus having the same

1. A display module comprising:

a display panel;

a backlight unit which is disposed behind the display panel and configured to emit light toward the display panel;

a bottom chassis configured to accommodate the backlight unit and light emitting diodes (LEDs) disposed apart from one another in an two-dimensional array comprising rows and columns; and

a reflective sheet which is disposed inside the bottom chassis and configured to reflect a light portion incident thereon toward the display panel, the reflective sheet comprising:

a sheet bottom portion corresponding to a front surface of the bottom chassis,

a sheet inclined portion which is obliquely formed to face a rear surface of the display panel, and

a light adjustment portion which is provided on the sheet inclined portion and configured to adjust the light portion reflected by the sheet inclined portion,

wherein the light adjustment portion comprises discontinuously disposed groups of elongated slits which are discontinuously disposed in a lengthwise direction in parallel with a peripheral edge disposed between the sheet bottom portion and the sheet inclined portion, and are disposed next to one another in a direction perpendicular to the lengthwise direction,

the elongated slits included into of each of the discontinuously disposed groups have a one to one relationship with respective LEDs disposed in the rows and columns adjacent the sheet inclined portion, and

the elongated slits are formed by cutting the sheet inclined portion in a linear form.

2. The display module according to claim 1 , wherein:

the backlight unit comprises boards on which the LEDs are disposed to be spaced apart from each other.

3. The display module according to claim 2 , wherein:

the backlight unit comprises lenses which are installed on respective LEDs; and

the sheet bottom portion comprises holes so that the LEDs and the lenses protrude through the holes.

4. A display apparatus comprising:

a display module which is configured to display a screen, and comprises:

a display panel,

a backlight unit which is disposed behind the display panel and configured to emit light toward the display panel,

a bottom chassis configured to accommodate the backlight unit and light emitting diodes (LEDs) disposed apart from one another in a two-dimensional array comprising rows and columns, and

a reflective sheet which is disposed inside the bottom chassis and is configured to reflect a light portion incident thereon toward the display panel, the reflective sheet comprising:

a sheet bottom portion corresponding to a front surface of the bottom chassis,

a sheet inclined portion which is obliquely formed to face a rear surface of the display panel, and

a light adjustment portion which is provided on the sheet side portion and is configured to adjust the light portion reflected by the sheet side portion,

wherein the light adjustment portion comprises discontinuously disposed groups of elongated slits which are discontinuously disposed in a lengthwise direction in parallel with a peripheral edge disposed between the sheet bottom portion and the sheet inclined portion, and are disposed next to one another in a direction perpendicular to the lengthwise direction,

the elongated slits included into of each of the discontinuously disposed groups have a one to one relationship with respective LEDs disposed in the rows and columns adjacent the sheet inclined portion, and

the elongated slits are formed by cutting the sheet inclined portion in a linear form.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein:

the backlight unit comprises boards on which the LEDs are disposed to be spaced apart from each other.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein:

the backlight unit comprises lenses which are installed on respective LEDs; and

the sheet bottom portion comprises holes through which the LEDs and the lenses protrude.

7. A display module comprising:

a display panel;

a backlight unit which is disposed behind the display panel and configured to emit light;

a bottom chassis configured to accommodate the backlight unit and light emitting diodes (LEDs) disposed apart from one another in a two-dimensional array comprising rows and columns; and

a reflective sheet which is disposed inside the bottom chassis and configured to reflect a first light portion incident thereon toward the display panel, the reflective sheet comprising:

a sheet bottom portion disposed substantially parallel to a front surface of the bottom chassis,

a sheet inclined portion which is inclined at an oblique angle from the sheet bottom portion toward the display panel, and

a light adjustment portion which is provided on the sheet inclined portion and configured to disperse a second light portion incident on the sheet inclined portion into an area formed between the bottom chassis and a rear surface of the sheet inclined portion,

wherein the light adjustment portion comprises discontinuously disposed groups of elongated slits which are discontinuously disposed in a lengthwise direction in parallel with a peripheral edge disposed between the sheet bottom portion and the sheet inclined portion, and are disposed next to one another in a direction perpendicular to the lengthwise direction,

the elongated slits included into of each of the discontinuously disposed groups have a one to one relationship with respective LEDs disposed in the rows and columns adjacent the sheet inclined portion, and

the elongated slits are formed by cutting the sheet inclined portion in a linear form.

8. The display module according to claim 7 , wherein the sheet inclined portion comprises an inclined front surface on which the first light portion and the second light portion are incident on.

9. The display module according to claim 7 , wherein the LEDs are disposed on a front surface of the bottom chassis and emit light through openings formed in the sheet bottom portion.
