An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a backlight module, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2b, the backlight module includes:
a backboard 100; and
a reflecting sheet 300, located on the backboard 100;
the reflecting sheet 300 including a body A1 and a plurality of hollow areas A2; and
the body A1 surrounding at least one of the hollow areas A2 being provided with one or more openings 400. Lines enclosed by dotted boxes in FIG. 1 represent the openings 400. Each of the hollow areas A2 in FIG. 1 is provided with three lines respectively representing three openings 400.
In some other implementation modes, the backlight module further includes light emitting devices 200; the light emitting devices 200 are arranged on the backboard 100 exposed out of the hollow areas A2; in other words, the backboard 100 exposed out of the hollow areas A2 is provided with the light emitting devices 200.
The hollow areas are openings in the body of the reflecting sheet, and the body surrounding the hollow areas is a part, close to the hollow areas, on the body.
According to the backlight module provided by embodiments of the present disclosure, the body surrounding at least one of the hollow areas arranged on the reflecting sheet is provided with the one or more mutually independent openings, due to the arrangement of the openings, when the reflecting sheet deforms under the action of thermal expansion and cold contraction, a stress may be released by the openings to buffer an acting force of the reflecting sheet to the light emitting devices, so that the problem that the lenses fall off may be solved, and the reliability of the backlight module may be improved.
Generally, the backboard 100 is provided with a trace for realizing an external connection of signals and electricity, and the trace is used for transmitting a signal for driving light emitting chips 210 to emit light. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, a backboard 100 may be set as a Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) or a Printed Circuit Board (PCB).
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2b, the openings 400 may be arranged on the body A1 surrounding the hollow areas A2 of the reflecting sheet. Exemplarily, the openings may be set as slits 410. The body A1 surrounding at least one of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with one or more slits 410. For example, the body A1 surrounding each of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with a plurality of mutually independent slits 410. Or the body A1 surrounding each of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with one slit 410. Or the body A1 surrounding part of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with a plurality of mutually independent slits 410, or the body A1 surrounding part of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with one slit 410. For example, a local area of the backlight module is obviously affected by temperature changes, then, the hollow areas in the area may be set, so that the body surrounding each of the hollow areas in the area is provided with a plurality of mutually independent openings. Of course, the arrangement of the openings may be designed and determined according to an actual application environment, but is not limited herein.
During an actual application, for the reflecting sheet 300, the light is reflected from the side where the light emitting devices 200 are located, and in order to realize the normal reflection of light, the reflecting sheet 300 generally includes a substrate and a reflecting layer located at the side, facing lenses 220, of the substrate. The material of the substrate of the reflecting sheet 300 may be set as a transparent material. The material of the reflecting layer may be set as Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) or a metal with a high reflectivity, but is not limited herein.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2b, the slits 410 surrounding the hollow areas A2 are slits penetrating from an upper surface S1 to a lower surface S2 of the reflecting sheet 300. For example, the upper surface S1 of the reflecting sheet 300 refers to the upper surface of the side, opposite to the substrate, of the reflecting layer of the reflecting sheet 300, and the lower surface S2 of the reflecting sheet 300 refers to the lower surface of the side, opposite to the reflecting layer, of the substrate of the reflecting sheet 300.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2b, the slits 410 surrounding the hollow areas A2 are connected with the hollow areas A2 of the reflecting sheet 300. In other words, the slits 410 extend from the body A1 surrounding the hollow areas A2 to the hollow areas A2, so that the slits 410 and the hollow areas A2 are connected. In this way, when the reflecting sheet deforms under the action of thermal expansion and cold contraction, a stress may be released by the openings to buffer an acting force of the reflecting sheet to the lenses, so that the problem that the lenses fall off may be solved, and the reliability of the backlight module may be improved.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2b, each of the light emitting devices 200 may include: a light emitting chip 210 located on the backboard 100 and a lens 220 covering the light emitting chip 210. Moreover, orthographic projections of the lenses 220 on the backboard 100 are complementary to that of the body A1 provided with the hollow areas A2 on the backboard 100. In some implementation modes, the backlight module is internally provided with a plurality of light bars, and each of the light bars is provided with a plurality of light emitting chips (such as LEDs). Generally, a process of fabricating the backlight module includes: providing the backboard, and locking the light bars and the backboard 100 by using screws, next, aligning the hollow areas A2 of the reflecting sheet 300 to the lenses 220, and then, pressing and assembling the reflecting sheet on the backboard to expose the lenses 220 out of the hollow areas A2. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, orthographic projections of the hollow areas A2 on the backboard 100 are complementary to those of the lenses 220 on the backboard 100, thus, there are very small gaps and even no gaps between the edges of the hollow areas A2 and the lenses 220, and furthermore, the problem that shadows exist due to larger gaps between the edges of the hollow areas A2 and the lenses 220 may be solved. Moreover, due to the arrangement of the openings, when the reflecting sheet deforms under the action of thermal expansion and cold contraction, a stress may be released by the openings to buffer an acting force of the reflecting sheet to the lenses, so that the problem that the lenses fall off may be solved, and the reliability of the backlight module may be improved.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the shape of each of the hollow areas A2 may include a round, namely the hollow areas A2 include round hollow areas. Generally, the light emitted by the light emitting chips 210 exits through the lenses 220 after penetrating through the lenses 220. In order to ensure that the light emitted by the lenses are completely emitted, but are not blocked by the reflecting sheet, the hollow areas A2 are arranged, and the lenses 220 are arranged on the hollow areas A2 and completely stretch out of the upside of the reflecting sheet. Moreover, in order to coordinate the hollow areas A2 and the lenses 220, the shapes of the hollow areas A2 may be set to be approximately identical to those of the lenses 220 corresponding to the hollow areas A2. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 2a and FIG. 3, a shadow area of the reflecting sheet 300 represents the body A1, and open areas (such as blank areas as shown in FIG. 3) except the body A1 represent the hollow areas A2. Exemplarily, in a direction perpendicular to the backboard 100, the outmost circumferences of the lenses 220 may be set to be round, then, the hollow areas A2 may also be set to be round.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 5, the body A1 of the reflecting sheet 300 between two adjacent lenses is arched, a convex surface of the arched body A1 of the reflecting sheet faces the backboard 100, and an end surface, forming the hollow areas A2, in the arched body A1 of the reflecting sheet clings to the lenses 300. As shown in combination with FIG. 1 and FIG. 5, for the hollow area A2 of which the area is less than that of the lens 220, the side, close to the light emitting device 200, of the body A1 surrounding the hollow area A2 is in contact with the corresponding lens 220, and a curved surface is formed from the body A1 in contact with the backboard 100 and the body A1 in contact with the lenses 220. The reflecting sheet 300 in the present disclosure has a structure shown as FIG. 5, and further includes the openings 400 corresponding to the hollow areas A2 in addition to the hollow areas A2. When the backlight module in the present disclosure is overlooked by facing a light emergent side of the backlight module, a top view of the backlight module is shown as FIG. 1, a sectional view of the backlight module is shown as FIG. 5, and known from the figures, light emitting chips 210 are located on the bottommost layer and are mounted on the backboard 100, the lenses 220 cover the light emitting chips 210, the body A1 surrounding the hollow areas A2 is not laid flat on the backboard 100, but the edge of the body A1 surrounding the hollow areas A2 leans against the lenses 220. The body surrounding the hollow areas in the present disclosure is provided with the openings, due to the existence of the openings 400, when the reflecting sheet deforms under the action of thermal expansion and cold contraction, a stress generated by the thermal deformation of the reflecting sheet 300 may be released by the openings 400, so that the phenomenon that the deflector plate deforms to apply a pressure to the lenses 220 is avoided, and the lenses 220 are prevented from falling off. Moreover, due to the existence of the openings 400, a process that the lenses 220 penetrate through the hollow areas A2 is easier to operate, and irreversible deformation generated around the hollow areas A2 may also be avoided when the lenses 220 penetrate through the hollow areas A2.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in combination with FIG. 4, the area of at least one of the round hollow areas A2 may be less than that of the round lens 220 corresponding to the hollow area A2. Exemplarily, the area of each of the round hollow areas A2 may be less than that of the round lens 220 corresponding to the hollow area A2. As shown in combination with FIG. 4, the area S1 of an orthographic projection of the edge of each of the hollow areas A2 on the backboard 100 is less than the area S2 of an orthographic projection of the edge of each of the lenses 220 on the backboard 100.
In order to further avoid the phenomenon that the body of the reflecting sheet applies a pressure to the lenses 220 due to deformation and prevent the lenses 220 from falling off, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, for each of the hollow areas A2, on the end surfaces of the openings of the hollow areas A2, the openings 400 are longer than parts, leaning against the lenses 220, on the hollow areas A2. In this way, excessive parts, leaning against the lenses 220, on the hollow areas A2 may be avoided, there is still a margin for the openings, and thus, when a pressure is applied to the lenses 220 due to deformation of the reflecting sheet 300 under the action of thermal expansion and cold contraction, a stress may be released to prevent the lenses 220 from falling off.
Generally, lenses and LEDs are fixedly arranged on a backboard by using an adhesive, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, the backlight module may further include a plurality of mutually independent adhesive points 510 between the lenses 220 and the backboard 100; and an extension line from the opening 400 arranged on the body A1 surrounding the hollow area A2 to the center of the hollow area A2 is provided with one or more adhesive points 510 for connecting the backboard 100 and the lens 220. In an actual preparation process, the adhesive on the adhesive points is relatively soft, after the lens 220 is arranged on an adhesive layer, part of the adhesive may be extruded to a light emergent side of the lens and even attached to the light emergent side of the part, close to the backboard 100, of the lens 220, and thus, the part of lens 220 is not smooth. The extension line from the opening 400 arranged on the body A1 surrounding the hollow area A2 to the center of the hollow area A2 is provided with the adhesive points 510, so that the opening 400 is arranged to correspond to the adhesive point 510, the opening 400 may correspond to the location where the adhesive attached to the outer side of the part, close to the backboard 100, of the lens 220 is located, furthermore, when a pressure is applied to the lenses 220 due to thermal deformation of the reflecting sheet 300, a stress may be released to prevent the lenses 220 from falling off.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 9, the slits 410 have widths perpendicular to extension directions of the slits. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, widths of at least two of the plurality of slits may be equal. For example, widths of at least part of the slits 410 may be equal. For example, for one hollow area A2 and one slit 410 which are nearest, the above-mentioned widths of the at least part of the slits 410 may be equal in a direction directed from the hollow areas A2 to the slits 410. In other words, the slits 410 may be set to have the equal width and extend from the hollow areas A2 to the body A1. In this way, the slits 410 corresponding to the same hollow area A2 may be symmetrically arranged as much as possible, thereby reducing influences to a lighting effect. Exemplarily, the widths of part of the slits 410 in all the slits 410 may be equal, or the widths of all the slits 410 may be equal, limitations thereof are omitted herein.
Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 7a and FIG. 7b, the width of at least one of the plurality of slits is reduced with the increment of distance from the slit to the hollow area. For example, the widths of at least part of the plurality of slits may also be reduced with the increment of distances from the slits 410 to the hollow areas A2. For example, for one hollow area A2 and one slit 410 which are nearest, the above-mentioned widths WO may be sequentially reduced in a direction directed from the hollow areas A2 to the slits 410. In this way, the slits 410 corresponding to the same hollow area A2 may be symmetrically arranged as much as possible, thereby reducing influences to a lighting effect. In other words, the openings may be set as grooves which extend from the hollow areas A2 to the body A1 and are arranged in the body A1 of the reflecting sheet, and openings of the grooves depart from the body A1. Of course, the openings may further include combinations of slits and grooves extending from the hollow areas A2 to the body A1. Of course, during an actual application, the above-mentioned way may be designed and determined according to an actual application environment, but is not limited herein.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the slits may be triangular or shaped like a part of an ellipse. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 7a, the slits 410 may be triangular. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 7b, the slits 410 may be shaped like a part of an ellipse. Or the slits 410 may also be arc-shaped, trapezoidal and the like. Of course, the shapes of the slits may also be designed and determined according to an actual application environment, but are not limited herein.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in combination with FIG. 6 to FIG. 7b, the slits 410 have lengths L0 along extension directions of the slits and may be 1 mm-2 mm long. In this way, when a pressure is applied to the lenses 220 due to thermal deformation of the reflecting sheet 300, a stress may be released to prevent the lenses 220 from falling off, and meanwhile, the problem that the light reflecting effect of the reflecting sheet is lowered caused by overlong slits may be avoided. Exemplarily, the lengths of the slits 410 may be set to be 1 mm or 1.5 mm or 2 mm. During an actual application, the lengths of the slits may be designed and determined according to an actual application environment, but are not limited herein.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in combination with FIG. 6 to FIG. 7b, the plurality of slits 410 may be equidistantly arranged on the body A1 and arranged on radius extension lines of the round hollow area A2. In other words, the plurality of slits 410 are equidistantly arranged on the radius extension lines of the round hollow area A2. In this way, the slits 410 corresponding to the same hollow area A2 may be symmetrically arranged as much as possible, thereby reducing influences to a lighting effect. Moreover, when a pressure is applied to the lenses 220 due to thermal deformation of the reflecting sheet 300, a stress may be released to prevent the lenses 220 from falling off. Further, generally, each of the lenses is correspondingly provided with three adhesive points which may be approximately three vertex angles of an equilateral triangle, and therefore, each of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with three openings 400.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, each of the hollow areas A2 provided with the slits 410 may be periodically arranged on the reflecting sheet 300. In this way, the reflecting sheet 300 may be uniformly provided with the hollow areas A2 provided with the slits 410, and furthermore, when a pressure is applied to the lenses 220 due to thermal deformation of the reflecting sheet 300, a stress may be released to prevent the lenses 220 from falling off.
Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, for the slits located on the same location corresponding to each of the hollow areas A2, the lengths, widths and inclination angles of these slits may be the same. In this way, the slits may be further symmetrically arranged, thereby reducing influences to a lighting effect. Moreover, the design difficulty of the slits may also be lowered.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 9, in the same hollow area A2, an included angles β is formed between connecting lines of every two adjacent slits 410 and the center of a circle (referring to locations of black spots in FIG. 6 and FIG. 9) of the round hollow area A2, and angles of at least part of the included angles β are enabled to be the same. Exemplarily, for two adjacent slits 410, an included angle β is formed between a connecting line L1 of one slit 410 and the center of a circle of the round hollow area A2 and a connecting line L2 of the other slit 410 and the center of the circle of the round hollow area A2.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 7b, each included angle β corresponding to each of the hollow areas A2 may be the same. In this way, when a pressure is applied to the lenses 220 due to thermal deformation of the reflecting sheet 300, a stress may be uniformly released to prevent the lenses 220 from falling off. Further, generally, each of the lenses is correspondingly provided with three adhesive points which may be approximately three vertex angles of an equilateral triangle, and therefore, each of the hollow areas A2 may be provided with three slits 410, and β may be approximately 120 degrees.
Of course, part of the included angles β may be the same, and part of the included angles β may be different. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 8, the included angles β are divided into at least two included angle groups, wherein included angles in the same included angle group are the same, and included angles in different included angle groups are different. Optionally, the included angle groups where two adjacent included angles β are located may be different. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the included angles β may be divided into two included angle groups 600-1 and 600-2. Included angles β-1 in the included angle group 600-1 and included angles β-2 in the included angle group 600-2 are alternately arranged, so that the two adjacent included angles β-1 and β-2 may be different.
Optionally, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the included angles in the same included angle group are adjacent. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the included angles β may be divided into the two included angle groups 600-1 and 600-2. The included angle group 600-1 is provided with a plurality of adjacent included angles β-1, the included angle group 600-2 is also provided with a plurality of adjacent included angles β-2, and the included angle groups 600-1 and 600-2 are set as a whole.
It should be noted that the same in the above-mentioned features may not be identical and may have some deviations in an actual process due to restrictions of process conditions or other factors, and therefore, the same relationships among all the above-mentioned features shall fall within the protective scope of the present disclosure as long as they approximately meet the above-mentioned conditions. For example, the above-mentioned same may be the same allowed within an error allowable range.
Another backlight module provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown as FIG. 10. The backlight module is transformed with specific to the implementation way in the above-mentioned embodiment. Differences of the present embodiment and the above-mentioned embodiment are only described below, but the descriptions of similarities thereof are omitted herein.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 10, the shape of each of the hollow areas A2 may include a rectangle (such as a square and an oblong). For example, the hollow areas A2 are rectangular hollow areas. Generally, the light emitted by the light emitting chips 210 exits through the lenses 220 after penetrating through the lenses 220. In order to ensure that the light emitted by the lenses is located on the reflecting surface of the reflecting sheet, the lenses 220 are exposed by the hollow areas A2. Moreover, in order to ensure that the hollow areas A2 are coordinated with the lenses 220, the shapes of the hollow areas A2 may be set to be approximately same as those of the lenses 220 corresponding to the hollow areas A2. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 10, in a direction perpendicular to the backboard, the outmost circumferences of the lenses 220 are set to be rectangular (such as square), and thus, the hollow areas A2 may also be rectangular (such as square). The following is described with an example in which the openings are the slits.
