Backlight device and display device including the same
A backlight device includes a frame formed of a transparent resin, a first diffusion adhesive layer with a light diffusion, provided on a first surface of the frame, a second diffusion adhesive layer with a light diffusion, provided on a second surface of the frame which is opposite to the first surface, a reflecting sheet adhered to the frame with the first diffusion adhesive layer, a light guide plate on the reflecting sheet in the frame, and a light source disposed in the frame to irradiate light to the light guide plate.
1. A backlight device comprising:
a frame formed of a transparent resin;
a first diffusion adhesive layer with a light diffusion, disposed on a first surface of the frame;
a second diffusion adhesive layer with a light diffusion, disposed on a second surface of the frame which is opposite to the first surface;
a reflecting sheet adhered to the frame with the first diffusion adhesive layer;
a light guide plate on the reflecting sheet in the frame; and
a light source disposed in the frame to enter light to the light guide plate.
2. The backlight device of claim 1 , further comprising an optical sheet provided on the light guide plate in the frame.
3. The backlight device of claim 1 , further comprising an optical sheet adhered to the frame with the second diffusion adhesive layer and opposed to the light guide plate.
4. The backlight device of claim 1 , wherein the first diffusion adhesive layer and the second diffusion adhesive layer are each formed of a binder containing micro beads refractive index of which is different from that of the binder.
5. The backlight device of claim 4 , wherein the light diffusion of the first diffusion adhesive layer is higher than that of the second diffusion adhesive layer.
6. The backlight device of claim 1 , wherein the frame is formed of a transparent resin sheet, and
in at least a part of the frame, a width of the frame matches with a width of the first adhesive layer and at least an external side surface of the frame and an external side surface of the first diffusion adhesive layer are flush with each other.
7. The backlight device of claim 6 , wherein a side surface of the reflecting sheet is flush with the external side surfaces of the first diffusion layer and the frame in the at least a part of the frame.
8. The backlight device of claim 7 , wherein the frame is 0.4 mm or less in thickness.
9. The backlight device of claim 1 , wherein the frame comprises at least four bars including a first bar adjacent to the light source and a second bar opposed to the first bar, and
the first diffusion adhesive layer on the second bar is more diffusive than the first diffusion adhesive layer disposed in a different side.
10. The backlight device of claim 1 , wherein the reflecting sheet includes an external end portion covering the external side surface of the frame and the external side surfaces of the first and second diffusion adhesive layers.
11. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a liquid crystal display panel, and
a backlight device of claim 1 opposed to the liquid crystal display panel.
12. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the frame is adhered to the liquid crystal display panel with the second diffusion adhesive layer, and the backlight device comprises an optical sheet disposed on the light guide plate in the frame.
13. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the backlight device comprises an optical sheet adhered to the frame with the second diffusion adhesive layer, and the optical sheet contacts the liquid crystal display panel.
14. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the liquid crystal display panel includes a display area and a non-display area around the display area, and the frame overlaps the non-display area, and at least a part of the frame overlaps the display area.
15. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the first diffusion adhesive layer is formed of a binder containing micro beads refractive index of which is different from that of the binder.
16. The liquid crystal display device of claim 15 , wherein the second diffusion adhesive layer is formed of a binder containing micro beads refractive index of which is different from that of the binder, and the light diffusion of the first diffusion adhesive layer is higher than that of the second diffusion adhesive layer.
17. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the frame is formed of a transparent resin sheet, and in at least a part of the frame, a width of the frame matches with a width of the first adhesive layer and at least an external side surface of the frame and an external side surface of the first diffusion adhesive layer are flush with each other.
18. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the liquid crystal display panel comprises a curved portion which curves to the backlight device side.
19. The liquid crystal display device of claim 11 , wherein the liquid crystal display panel includes a pair of long sides opposed to each other and a pair of short sides opposed to each other, in which side edge portion on the long sides of the liquid crystal display panel are curved to the backlight device side and constitute the curved portion, and
the frame comprises a long side opposed to the curved portion.
20. The liquid crystal display device of claim 19 , wherein the long side of the frame is adhered to the curved portion through an optical sheet and a diffusion adhesive layer and curves along the curved portion.
