Abstract

The present disclosure provides a curved-surface backlight source and a display device comprising the curved-surface backlight source. The curved-surface backlight source comprises: a frame, an optical film and a plurality of light source assemblies; the light source assemblies are disposed on the frame, the optical film is disposed on light emergent sides of the light source assemblies, and the light source assemblies and the optical film are in a curved shape.

Claims (19)

1. A backlight source, comprising: a frame, an optical film and a plurality of light source assemblies, wherein the light source assemblies are on the frame, the optical film is on a light emergent side of the light source assemblies, and the light source assemblies and the optical film are in a curved shape, wherein the light source assemblies include light guiding bars having a bent column shape, and illuminants disposed at both ends of the light guiding bars.

2. The backlight source according to claim 1 , wherein the frame, the optical film and the light source assemblies have a same curvature.

3. A display device, comprising the backlight source according to claim 2 .

4. The backlight source according to claim 1 , wherein a side of the light guiding bar near the optical film is a light emergent area, and a side of the light guiding bar far away from the optical film is a reflecting area.

5. The backlight source according to claim 4 , wherein a dot structure is in the reflecting area.

6. A display device, comprising the backlight source according to claim 4 .

7. The backlight source according to claim 4 , wherein the light emergent area has a semi-elliptical cross section, and a semi-major axis a of the semi-ellipse satisfies the relation of 4 mm≤a≤8 mm;

the reflecting area has a semi-circular cross section, and a radius r of the semi-circle satisfies the relation of 4 mm≤r≤8 mm; the semi-major axis a and the radius r have the same value.

8. A display device, comprising the backlight source according to claim 7 .

9. The backlight source according to claim 4 , wherein the light emergent area is provided with light scattering particles inside or outside a light emergent surface.

10. The backlight source according to claim 4 , wherein a light diffusion structure is on the light emergent surface of the light emergent area.

11. The backlight source according to claim 10 , wherein the light diffusion structure is a hollow-hole array structure or a prism array structure.

12. The backlight source according to claim 1 , wherein the light guiding bars are solid cylinders made of PMMA or PC.

13. The backlight source according to claim 1 , wherein the illuminants are LEDs or laser light sources.

14. The backlight source according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of light source assemblies are equally spaced on the frame.

15. The backlight source according to claim 14 , wherein a distance between adjacent light source assemblies is 10 mm-100 mm.

16. A display device, comprising the backlight source according to claim 14 .

17. A display device, comprising the backlight source according to claim 1 .

18. The display device according to claim 17 , further comprising a liquid crystal display panel which has a same curvature as the backlight source.
