A backlight module including a light box and a plurality of lamps in the light box is provided. The light box includes a bottom plate and an opening above the bottom plate. The lamp is disposed at an angle to the bottom plate of the light box. A liquid crystal display including the above backlight module and a liquid crystal panel is further provided. The backlight module provides the plane light source for display.
1. A backlight module, comprising:
a light box having a bottom plate and an opening above the bottom plate; and
a plurality of lamps disposed in the light box, wherein each of the lamps is tilted to a bottom surface of the light box at a tilt angle between an extending direction of the lamp and a corresponding projection line on the bottom surface, each of the tilt angles is fixed, and the tilt angles of the lamps are different, wherein each of the lamps includes a high voltage terminal and a low voltage terminal, and the low voltage terminal is disposed farther from the bottom plate while the high voltage terminal is disposed closer to the bottom plate.
2. The backlight module of claim 1 , wherein the lamps are straight tubular lamps and the high voltage terminals of the lamps are disposed at a same side of the light box.
3. The backlight module of claim 1 , wherein the lamps are S-shaped tubular lamps, L-shaped tubular lamps or U-shaped tubular lamps.
4. The backlight module of claim 1 , wherein the tilt angle ranges from 0.1 degree to 8 degrees.
5. The backlight module of claim 1 , further comprising a diffuser plate at the opening of the light box.
6. The backlight module of claim 5 , further comprising an optical sheet disposed on the diffuser plate.
7. The backlight module of claim 6 , wherein the optical sheet includes a brightness enhancement film or a prism sheet.
8. A liquid crystal display, comprising:
a backlight module, comprising:
a light box having a bottom plate and an opening above the bottom plate; and
a plurality of lamps disposed in the light box, wherein each of the lamps is tilted to a bottom surface of the light box at a tilt angle between an extending direction of the lamp and a corresponding projection line on the bottom surface, each of the tilt angles is fixed, and the tilt angles of the lamps are different, wherein each of the lamps includes a high voltage terminal and a low voltage terminal, and the low voltage terminal is disposed farther from the bottom plate, while the high voltage terminal is disposed closer to the bottom plate; and a liquid crystal panel disposed above the opening.
9. The display of claim 8 , wherein the lamps are straight tubular lamps and the high voltage terminals of the lamps are disposed at a same side of the light box.
10. The display of claim 8 , wherein the lamps are S-shaped tubular lamps, L-shaped tubular lamps or U-shaped tubular lamps.
11. The display of claim 8 , wherein the tilt angle ranges from 0.1 degree to 8 degrees.
12. The display of claim 8 , further comprising a diffuser plate at the opening of the light box.
13. The display of claim 12 , further comprising an optical sheet disposed on the diffuser plate.
14. The display of claim 13 , wherein the optical sheet includes a brightness enhancement film or a prism sheet.
