Description
本發明係與背光模組領域相關,尤其是一種具區段出光控制之側入式背光模組及其顯示裝置。 The invention relates to the field of backlight modules, in particular to an edge-lit backlight module with segment light output control and its display device.
導光板優異的光學特性,使其除可單獨使用外,亦可配合其餘光學元件而形成背光模組,以應用於如顯示器等電子產品中。用於背光模組的導光板係具有一出光面,以導引進入導光板之光線於出光面形成面光源,並投射至顯示面板以達到顯示目的。 The excellent optical characteristics of the light guide plate make it not only used alone, but also combined with the remaining optical components to form a backlight module for use in electronic products such as displays. The light guide plate used for the backlight module has a light exit surface to guide the light entering the light guide plate to form a surface light source on the light exit surface and project to the display panel for display purposes.
目前的電子產品,其市場需求漸偏向薄型化,因此搭載於內的背光模組設計方向,亦須朝向薄型化發展,側入式背光模組漸取代直下式背光模組。並隨產業發展,電子產品的顯示功能與品質的要求亦越趨多元,為提升電子產品之顯示品質,背光模組除了提供均勻面光源予顯示面板外,更須進一步對出光強度與區域進行控制,以提高顯示畫面的銳利度及對比度等。 At present, the market demand for electronic products is gradually leaning toward thinness. Therefore, the design direction of the backlight module mounted on it must also be toward thinning. The edge-lit backlight module gradually replaces the direct backlight module. With the development of the industry, the display function and quality requirements of electronic products are becoming more and more diverse. In order to improve the display quality of electronic products, in addition to providing a uniform surface light source to the display panel, the backlight module must further control the light intensity and area To improve the sharpness and contrast of the display screen.
在區段控光與輕薄化等要求下,傳統單一導光板的背光模組已無法滿足所需,廠商逐步進行開發與改良。當以區段發光控制為開發要點,有將楔型導光板透過拼接而非堆疊的方式組接至所需的尺寸大小,再於各導光板分別搭載光源以利進行出光調整。惟,當欲生產大尺寸的導光 板時,由於須利用多個小尺寸的楔型導光板拼組而成,生產成本相對大幅提升,且整體重量亦因導光板數量增加而提高,同時在各導光板的光學設計上也具有極大困難度,故仍無法符合現今背光模組的輕薄化與區段控光要求。 Under the requirements of segment light control and thinning and thinning, the backlight module of the traditional single light guide plate has been unable to meet the needs, and manufacturers have gradually developed and improved. When the section lighting control is the main point of development, the wedge-shaped light guide plates are assembled to the required size by splicing instead of stacking, and then each light guide plate is equipped with a light source to facilitate light output adjustment. However, when a large-size light guide plate is to be produced, since a plurality of small-sized wedge-shaped light guide plates need to be assembled, the production cost is relatively greatly increased, and the overall weight is also increased due to the increase in the number of light guide plates.

在背光模組開發過程中,為符合輕薄化的要求,整體重量與厚度越小則越為理想。但實際上因應搭配之光源尺寸,會使背光模組相對產生一厚度的限制,而如何在該限制內,提供具有極佳區段調光能力之背光模組,同時有效降低整體體積與重量,實為目前業界致力研發的方向。有鑑於此,本發明人係提出一種側入式背光模組,如下所述。 In the development process of backlight modules, in order to meet the requirements of thinner and lighter, the smaller the overall weight and thickness, the more ideal. But in fact, according to the size of the matching light source, the backlight module will relatively have a thickness limitation, and how to provide a backlight module with excellent segment dimming capability within this limitation, while effectively reducing the overall volume and weight, This is the direction of the industry's current commitment to research and development. In view of this, the inventor proposes an edge-lit backlight module, as described below.
請參閱第1、2及3~4圖,其係為本發明第一實施方式之立體分解圖、組裝側視圖及各平面示意圖。本發明於此揭示一種具區段出光控制之側入式背光模組1,包括一第一導光板10、一第二導光板11、一反射結構12、一第一燈條13及一第二燈條14。 Please refer to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 to 4, which are an exploded perspective view, an assembled side view and schematic plan views of the first embodiment of the present invention. The present invention discloses a side-lit backlight module 1 with segment light output control, including a first light guide plate 10, a second light guide plate 11, a reflective structure 12, a first light bar 13 and a second Light bar 14.
如第1圖所示,第一導光板10具有一第一入光側101及一出光面102,且第一導光板10之厚度由第一入光側101朝相對側漸減而使其剖面為楔型。而第二導光板11係具有一第二入光側111,且第二導光板11之厚度由第二入光側111朝相對側漸減而使其剖面為楔型,第二導光板11設於第一導光板10底側並組設為一體,亦即第一導光板10堆疊於第二導光板11上,且使第一入光側101與第二入光側111為相對設置,進而使第一導光板10與第二導光板11組設後的整體厚度即為第一入光側101與第二入光側111之厚度。反射結構12則設於第二導光板11底側,以將自第二導光板11底側射出之光線反射至第二導光板11內,並接續朝向第一導光板11前進而自出光面102形成出光。較佳者,反射結構12可為一片狀結構體。其中,本實施方式之反射結構12實為將第二導光板11於底側射出之光線反射至第二導光板11與第一導光板10,進而於出光面102形成單面出光之目的而設置,換言之,在單面出光之需求下,反射結構12僅可設置於第二導 光板11底側位置,當設於其他位置時或可使背光模組具有他種出光效能,但必然無法達到將自第二導光板11底側射出光線反射回第一導光板10與第二導光板11處之功效,亦非為本發明之側入式背光模組1所需。在不同之出光效能要求下,反射結構12的設置位置係無法相互取代,或由他種反射結構12設置方式而輕易推得本發明之反射結構12功效與設置方式。而利用堆疊導光板形成本發明之側入式背光模組1的方式,係可符合大尺寸導光板的需求,無須透過拼接方式逐一組裝,進而有效地降低生產成本、製程時間與整體重量。 As shown in FIG. 1, the first light guide plate 10 has a first light incident side 101 and a light exit surface 102, and the thickness of the first light guide plate 10 gradually decreases from the first light incident side 101 toward the opposite side to make its cross section as Wedge shape. The second light guide plate 11 has a second light incident side 111, and the thickness of the second light guide plate 11 gradually decreases from the second light incident side 111 toward the opposite side to make the cross section of the wedge shape, and the second light guide plate 11 is provided at The bottom side of the first light guide plate 10 is combined into one body, that is, the first light guide plate 10 is stacked on the second light guide plate 11, and the first light incident side 101 and the second light incident side 111 are arranged oppositely, so that The combined thickness of the first light guide plate 10 and the second light guide plate 11 is the thickness of the first light incident side 101 and the second light incident side 111. The reflective structure 12 is disposed on the bottom side of the second light guide plate 11 to reflect the light emitted from the bottom side of the second light guide plate 11 into the second light guide plate 11 and then proceeds toward the first light guide plate 11 to exit from the light exit surface 102 Form light. Preferably, the reflective structure 12 may be a sheet-like structure. The reflective structure 12 of this embodiment is actually configured to reflect the light emitted by the second light guide plate 11 on the bottom side to the second light guide plate 11 and the first light guide plate 10, and to form a single-sided light output on the light output surface 102. In other words, under the requirement of single-sided light emission, the reflective structure 12 can only be arranged at the bottom side of the second light guide plate 11, when it is set at other positions, the backlight module may have other light-emitting effects, but it will inevitably fail to achieve The effect of the light emitted from the bottom side of the second light guide plate 11 reflecting back to the first light guide plate 10 and the second light guide plate 11 is not required for the side-entry backlight module 1 of the present invention. Under different light output performance requirements, the installation positions of the reflective structures 12 cannot be replaced with each other, or the efficiency and arrangement of the reflective structure 12 of the present invention can be easily derived from other types of reflective structure 12 installation methods. The method of forming the side-entry backlight module 1 of the present invention by stacking light guide plates can meet the requirements of large-size light guide plates, and does not need to be assembled one by one by splicing, thereby effectively reducing production costs, process time and overall weight.
第一燈條13對應第一入光側101設置,以提供光線予第一導光板10,第二燈條14則對應第二入光側111設置,以提供光線予第二導光板11。藉此,第一燈條13與第二燈條14之光線分別受第一導光板10及第二導光板11導引而於出光面102出光,並透過控制第一燈條13與第二燈條14之驅動狀態達成區段調光。第一導光板10與第二導光板11組合為一體後,視第一燈條13與第二燈條14的尺寸,會具有對應第一燈條13與第二燈條14之厚度,而本發明之側入式背光模組1在指定的厚度下,使第一導光板10之最大厚度位置,亦即第一入光側101,及第二導光板11之最大厚度位置,亦即第二入光側111,兩者對應前述厚度設計,在組裝後即可利用相異導光板分別控制發光區段,進而在厚度受限的情況下,有效減縮背光模組整體厚度與重量,並達到單面出光且兼具區段調光的效能。 The first light bar 13 is disposed corresponding to the first light incident side 101 to provide light to the first light guide plate 10, and the second light bar 14 is disposed corresponding to the second light incident side 111 to provide light to the second light guide plate 11. Thereby, the light of the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 are guided by the first light guide plate 10 and the second light guide plate 11 respectively to emit light on the light exit surface 102, and through controlling the first light bar 13 and the second light The driving state of the bar 14 achieves zone dimming. After the first light guide plate 10 and the second light guide plate 11 are integrated into one body, depending on the sizes of the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14, the thicknesses corresponding to the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 will be different. The edge-lit backlight module 1 of the invention makes the maximum thickness position of the first light guide plate 10, that is, the first light entrance side 101, and the maximum thickness position of the second light guide plate 11, that is, the second The light entrance side 111 corresponds to the aforementioned thickness design. After assembly, different light guide plates can be used to control the light-emitting sections respectively, so that when the thickness is limited, the overall thickness and weight of the backlight module can be effectively reduced, and the It has surface light emission and has the effect of segment dimming.
第一燈條13與第二燈條14之規格可為相同或不相同,於本實施方式中,係以第一燈條13與第二燈條14具相同規格為例說明,於此條件下,第一燈條13受第一導光板10導引而自出光面102出光之光線亮度為 L1,第二燈條14受第二導光板11導引而自出光面102出光之光線亮度為L2,進而使出光面102具有分別為L1+L2、L1、L2及0之出光亮度,如第2圖所示,惟第2圖之光線路徑僅為示意,非為實際光徑。藉此,透過控制第一燈條13與第二燈條14之發光狀態,即可使側入式背光模組1具有至少四種亮度表現。例如,第一燈條13與第二燈條14皆為點亮狀態時,側入式背光模組1之出光亮度即為L1+L2;僅點亮第一燈條13時,側入式背光模組1則具有L1之出光亮度;反之,僅點亮第二燈條14時,側入式背光模組1即具有L2之出光亮度;最後當第一燈條13與第二燈條14皆未點亮時,則側入式背光模組之出光亮度為0。且由於第二燈條14之光線進入第二導光板11後係經過多次折反射,並透過反射結構12而穿透至第一導光板10,再於出光面102形成出光,因此L2之出光亮度會小於L1之出光亮度。當然,視需求而定,第一燈條13與第二燈條14之驅動方式亦可作多種變化,而達成更多種出光亮度的調控。 The specifications of the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 may be the same or different. In this embodiment, the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 have the same specifications as an example, under this condition , The first light bar 13 is guided by the first light guide plate 10 and the light brightness from the light exit surface 102 is L 1 , the second light bar 14 is guided by the second light guide plate 11 and the light brightness from the light exit surface 102 is L 2 , so that the light output surface 102 has the light output brightness of L 1 + L 2 , L 1 , L 2 and 0, as shown in Figure 2, but the light path in Figure 2 is only a schematic, not the actual light path. Therefore, by controlling the light-emitting states of the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14, the side-lit backlight module 1 can have at least four brightness performances. For example, when both the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 are lit, the light output brightness of the side-entry backlight module 1 is L 1 + L 2 ; when only the first light bar 13 is lit, the side light enters The backlight module 1 has the light output brightness of L 1 ; on the contrary, when only the second light bar 14 is lit, the side-entry backlight module 1 has the light output brightness of L 2 ; finally, when the first light bar 13 and the second When none of the light bars 14 is lit, the light output brightness of the side-entry backlight module is 0. And after the light from the second light bar 14 enters the second light guide plate 11, it undergoes multiple reflections, and passes through the reflective structure 12 to penetrate to the first light guide plate 10, and then forms light on the light exit surface 102, so L 2 It will be less than the lightness L 1 of the brightness. Of course, depending on the requirements, the driving methods of the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 can also be changed in various ways, so as to achieve more various adjustments of the light output brightness.
如第3及4圖所示,較佳者,第一燈條13具有複數第一光源131,第二燈條14具有複數第二光源141,出光面102並劃分有複數出光調控區1021,各出光調控區1021係與第一入光側101垂直並鄰接排列設置,且各出光調控區1021對應至少一第一光源131及至少一第二光源141。如第3圖所示,由於第一入光側101與第二入光側111係為相對設置,因此第一燈條13與第二燈條14亦為相對,當選擇性點亮第一光源131與第二光源141時,各出光調控區1021受對應的第一光源131與第二光源141相異供光狀態影響,各出光調控區1021即會產生不同的亮度表現,是以進一步透過第一光源131與第二光源141的控制,即可讓出光面102各區域形成相異的 出光亮度,以符合顯示畫面的需求。於本實施方式中,係以劃分有四個出光調控區1021,且各出光調控區1021分別對應二個第一光源131及二個第二光源141為例。如第4圖所示,最上方之出光調控區1021係因第二光源141驅動而具有出光表現,次一出光調控區1021則因對應之第一光源131及第二光源141皆未驅動而相對形成較暗區域,接續之出光調控區1021由於對應之第一光源131及第二光源141皆已驅動,因此該區會為整個出光面102中最亮的區域,最後之出光調控區1021則同於前述未具有入射光因而形成暗區,藉此即可讓出光面102各區域因應顯示需求而具有不同亮度的出光呈現。其中,第4圖之出光呈現僅為簡單示意,非代表實際之區域劃分態樣與出光表現。 As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, preferably, the first light bar 13 has a plurality of first light sources 131, the second light bar 14 has a plurality of second light sources 141, the light output surface 102 is divided into a plurality of light output control regions 1021, each The light-emitting control area 1021 is arranged perpendicular to and adjacent to the first light-incident side 101, and each light-emitting control area 1021 corresponds to at least one first light source 131 and at least one second light source 141. As shown in FIG. 3, since the first light incident side 101 and the second light incident side 111 are arranged oppositely, the first light bar 13 and the second light bar 14 are also opposite. When the first light source is selectively turned on When 131 and the second light source 141, each light-out regulation area 1021 is affected by the different light supply states of the corresponding first light source 131 and the second light source 141, each light-out regulation area 1021 will produce different brightness performance, so that The control of a light source 131 and a second light source 141 can make the areas of the light emitting surface 102 form different light emitting brightnesses to meet the requirements of displaying images. In this embodiment, four light emission control regions 1021 are divided, and each light emission control region 1021 corresponds to two first light sources 131 and two second light sources 141 respectively. As shown in FIG. 4, the uppermost light-emitting control area 1021 has a light-emitting performance due to the driving of the second light source 141, and the next light-emitting control area 1021 is opposite because neither the corresponding first light source 131 nor the second light source 141 is driven. A darker area is formed, and the subsequent light output control area 1021 is driven by the corresponding first light source 131 and second light source 141, so this area will be the brightest area in the entire light output surface 102, and the final light output control area 1021 is the same The dark area is formed when there is no incident light as described above, so that each area of the light-emitting surface 102 can have light output with different brightness according to display requirements. Among them, the light emergence shown in Figure 4 is only a simple schematic, and does not represent the actual area division and light appearance.

In addition, in order to make the light incident on the second light guide plate 11 emit light on the bottom side of the second light guide plate 11 to be reflected by the reflective structure 12 to the first light guide plate 10, a bottom surface 112 of the second light guide plate 11 may also be disposed A second homogenous microstructure group 113, and its arrangement density is gradually reduced from the second light incident side 111 toward the opposite side, so as to use the second homogenous microstructure group 113 to control the light extraction ability of the bottom surface 112 and make the light exit from the bottom surface 112 , Continuously touching the reflective structure 12 and reflecting to the first light guide plate 10 and forming light on the light emitting surface 102.
