Backlight module
A backlight module includes a light guide plate, a first light module, and a second light module. The light guide plate includes first troughs and second troughs on opposite sides. The first light module includes a first substrate and first LEDs thereon. An opaque element is disposed on each first gap between two adjacent first LEDs, each first LED is embedded in one first trough. The second light module includes a second substrate and second LEDs thereon. An opaque element is disposed on each second gap between two adjacent second LEDs, and each second LED is embedded in one second trough. Each first LED is disposed to one second gap, and each second LED is disposed in one first gap. Light from first LED is absorbed by the opaque element on the second substrate, and that from the second LED is absorbed by the opaque element on the first substrate.
1. A backlight module comprising:
a light guide plate comprising a plurality of first troughs on a first side and a plurality of second troughs on a second side opposite to the first side;
a first light module comprising a first substrate and a plurality of first light emitting diodes disposed on the first substrate, wherein an opaque element disposed on each first gap between the two adjacent first light emitting diodes, each first light emitting diode is correspondingly embedded in one of the plurality of first troughs;
a second light module comprising a second substrate and a plurality of second light emitting diodes disposed on the second substrate, wherein an opaque element disposed on each second gap between the two adjacent second light emitting diodes, each second light emitting diode is correspondingly embedded in one of the plurality of second troughs;
wherein each first light emitting diode is disposed in an alignment to one of the second gaps, each second light emitting diode is disposed in an alignment to one of the first gaps, and the first light emitting diodes and the second light emitting diodes are arranged asymmetrically.
2. The backlight module of claim 1 wherein a plurality of opaque elements are disposed on a third side and a fourth side of the light guide plate, both perpendicular to the first side and the second side.
3. The backlight module of claim 1 wherein the opaque element is dark tape sticking to the first substrate and the second substrate.
4. The backlight module of claim 1 wherein the opaque element is dark coating on the first substrate and the second substrate.
5. The backlight module of claim 1 wherein the opaque elements stick to contact areas of the first and second sides of the light guide plate and the first substrate and the second substrate.
6. The backlight module of claim 1 , further comprising a plastic frame for fixing the first light module, the second light module, and the light guide plate, wherein the plastic frame is made of opaque material.
