Abstract

A display device according to an example embodiment comprises: a light source package comprising light sources disposed on the mounting surface of a printed circuit board and a display panel and configured to irradiate light toward the display panel. The light source package comprises: a light conversion member configured to convert the wavelength of the light emitted from the light sources; a transparent member configured to transmit the light emitted from the light sources, and to support the light conversion member; a first package substantially surrounding the light sources and the transparent member; and a second package covering the outside of the first package, wherein the thermal conductivity of the second package is greater than the thermal conductivity of the first package.

Claims (43)

1 . A display device comprising:

a display panel; and

a light source package including a light source disposed on a mounting surface of a printed circuit board and configured to transmit light to the display panel,

wherein the light source package includes:

a light conversion member, comprising light conversion material, configured to convert a wavelength of light emitted from the light source;

a transparent member, comprising substantially transparent material, configured to allow the light emitted from the light source to be transmitted therethrough, at least a part of the transparent member being positioned between the light source and the light conversion member to support the light conversion member;

a first package substantially surrounding the light source and the transparent member; and

a second package substantially surrounding an outer side of the first package,

wherein a thermal conductivity of the second package is greater than a thermal conductivity of the first package.

2 . A display device comprising:

a display panel; and

a light source package including a light source disposed on a mounting surface of a printed circuit board and configured to transmit light to the display panel,

wherein the light source package includes:

a light conversion member, comprising light conversion material, configured to convert a wavelength of light emitted from the light source;

a transparent member, comprising substantially transparent material, configured to allow the light emitted from the light source to be transmitted therethrough and to support the light conversion member;

a first package substantially surrounding the light source and the transparent member; and

a second package substantially surrounding an outer side of the first package,

wherein a thermal conductivity of the second package is greater than a thermal conductivity of the first package, and wherein the second package comprises a metal material.

3 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first package includes a first material configured to reflect at least a portion of the light emitted from the light source.

4 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein the first package includes a second material comprising a different material from the first material and having a higher thermal conductivity than the first material.

5 . The display device of claim 4 , wherein a content ratio of the second material in the first package is less than or equal to 20% of a total content of the first package.

6 . The display device of claim 5 , wherein the second material comprises boron nitride (BN).

7 . The display device of claim 6 , wherein a particle size of the BN is greater than or equal to 50 um.

8 . The display device of claim 5 , wherein the first material comprises titanium dioxide (TiO2).

9 . A display device comprising:

a display panel;

a light source package including a light source disposed on a mounting surface of a printed circuit board and configured to transmit light to the display panel,

wherein the light source package includes:

a light conversion member, comprising light conversion material, configured to convert a wavelength of light emitted from the light source;

a transparent member, comprising substantially transparent material, configured to allow the light emitted from the light source to be transmitted therethrough, at least a part of the transparent member being positioned between the light source and the light conversion member to support the light conversion member;

a first package substantially surrounding the light source and the transparent member; and

a second package substantially surrounding an outer side of the first package,

wherein a thermal conductivity of the second package is greater than a thermal conductivity of the first package; and

a light guide plate provided on a rear side of the display panel,

wherein the transparent member includes a first surface facing the light guide plate, a second surface disposed at a side opposite to the first surface and facing the light source, and an inserting portion disposed between the first surface and the second surface and into which the light conversion member is inserted.

10 . The display device of claim 9 , wherein the transparent member includes a first member provided with the first surface and a second member coupleable to the first member and provided with the second surface and the inserting portion.

11 . The display device of claim 10 , wherein the light conversion member is configured to be inserted into the inserting portion, in a state of being open to an outside, and heated at a specified temperature, and sealed inside the transparent member.

12 . The display device of claim 9 , wherein the light source package further includes an adhesive layer disposed between the light source and the second surface and configured to bond the light source to the second surface,

wherein the adhesive layer comprises a transparent material so that light emitted from the light source is capable of being transmitted through the adhesive layer to the transparent member.

13 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein the second package is in contact with the printed circuit board.

14 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising a heat dissipation member in contact with the printed circuit board, and

the second package is in contact with the heat dissipation member.

15 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein heat generated by the light conversion member is emitted outside of the light source package through the transparent member, the first package, and the second package.
