Illumination apparatus, liquid-crystal display apparatus, and electronic device
An illumination apparatus includes: 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 which faces toward the light entry portion; a light source substrate, disposed and separated with a space from the light entry portion of the light-guiding plate when viewed from above, that includes a mounting surface for the plurality of light-emitting elements, the mounting surface being orthogonal to the side-end surface serving as the light entry portion; and a step portion with which an end portion of the light source substrate located toward the light-guiding plate makes contact.
1. An illumination device comprising:
a light-guiding member including a side-end that serves as a light-entry portion;
a plurality of light-emitting elements, each of the plurality of light-emitting elements emitting light toward the light-entry portion;
a frame which holds the light-guiding member; and
a light source substrate disposed and separated with a space from the light-entry portion of the light-guiding member when viewed from within a same plane of the side-end, and including a mounting surface for the plurality of light-emitting elements,
wherein the frame includes a protrusion portion which is positioned between the light-guiding member and the light source substrate, and
a surface of the protrusion portion is attached to a surface of the light source substrate, which extends in a same plane with the surface of the protrusion portion.
2. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,
wherein a height of the protrusion portion is lower than a height of the light source substrate.
3. The illumination device according to claim 1 ,
wherein each of the plurality of light-emitting elements includes a light-emitting surface which emits light toward the light-entry portion, and
the light source substrate is spaced apart from the light-guiding member when viewed from a direction which is parallel to the light-emitting surface.
4. An illumination device comprising:
a light-guiding member including a side-end that serves as a light-entry portion;
a light-emitting element which emits light toward the light-entry portion;
a frame which holds the light-guiding member; and
a light source substrate disposed and separated with a space from the light-entry portion of the light-guiding member when viewed from within a same plane of the side-end, and including a mounting surface for the light-emitting element,
wherein the frame includes a protrusion portion which is positioned between the light-guiding member and the light source substrate, and
a surface of the protrusion portion is attached to a surface of the light source substrate, which extends in a same plane with the surface of the protrusion portion.
5. The illumination device according to claim 4 ,
wherein a height of the protrusion portion is lower than a height of the light source substrate.
6. The illumination device according to claim 4 ,
wherein the light-emitting element includes a light-emitting surface which emits light toward the light-entry portion, and
the light source substrate is spaced apart from the light-guiding member when viewed from a direction which is parallel to the light-emitting surface.
