The COB light source 203 according to the embodiment of the invention may be directly mounted on the substrate 122. Thus, the size of the light assembly 124 may decrease.
Because heat dissipation of the light sources 203 is excellent by forming the light sources 203 on the substrate 122, the light sources 203 may be driven at a high current. Hence, a number of light sources 203 required to secure the same light quantity may decrease.
Further, because the light sources 203 are mounted on the substrate 122, a wire bonding process may not be necessary. Hence, the manufacturing cost may be reduced due to the simplification of the manufacturing process.
As shown in
Because the COB light source 203 emits light even in a direction corresponding to the third and fourth emission ranges EA3 and EA4 of the side, the embodiment of the invention needs to efficiently control light of the side direction. The reflecting sheet according to the embodiment of the invention may control a reflectance of light emitted from the light source 203 in the side direction. Thus, the embodiment of the invention may reduce the non-uniformity of brightness resulting from light of the side direction.

Namely, an area of the reflecting sheet 126 may be divided depending on whether or not the reflecting sheet 126 and the frame 130 contact each other. For example, the area of the reflecting sheet 126 may be divided into a contact area contacting the frame 130 and a non-contact area not contacting the frame 130.
The area of the reflecting sheet 126 may be divided into the first sheet area 126a and the second sheet area 126b by the fixing pin 202. In other words, the second sheet area 126b may be an area between the fixing pin 202 and a portion contacting the third frame area 130c, Namely, the first sheet area 126a and the second sheet area 126b may be determined depending on whether or not the reflecting sheet 126 contacts the first frame area 130a of the frame 130. The second sheet area 126b may be naturally separated from the frame 130 by properties and elasticity of the reflecting sheet 126. For example, when the first sheet area 126a is coupled to the frame 130 by the fixing pin 202, the second sheet area 126b may naturally form a curved surface by its own weight and may be separated from the frame 130. A separation space 130d may be formed between the second sheet area 126b and the frame 130. An angle formed by the second sheet area 126b of the reflecting sheet 126 and the bottom surface of the frame 130 may gradually increase. Namely, in the non-contact area of the reflecting sheet 126, the reflecting sheet 126 may have a two-dimensional curve shape. Thus, the second sheet area 126b may be separated from the frame 130 at a predetermined angle.
The third sheet area 126c may be placed in the third frame area 130c. The third sheet area 126c may be coupled to the third frame area 130c. Alternatively, the third sheet area 126c may be naturally positioned on the third frame area 130c. Namely, the third sheet area 126c may contact the third frame area 130c by elastic force of the Z-axis direction resulting from the rounded second sheet area 126b.
Light L may be emitted through the lens 124b. Namely, light generated in the light source 203 may be emitted to the outside through the lens 124b. The light L emitted through the lens 124b may travel through various paths. For example, a portion of the light L may travel through a path of the side direction of the lens 124b.
The portion of the light L in the path of the side direction may travel toward the second sheet area 126b. At least a portion of light generated in the light source 203 may be totally reflected inside the lens 124b and may travel toward the second sheet area 126b. In this instance, an amount of light L upwardly travelling in the second sheet area 126b may be more than an amount of light L downwardly travelling in the second sheet area 126b. In other words, an amount and/or a density of light L transferred to the reflecting sheet 126 may be non-uniform. When the amount and/or the density of the light L is not uniform, a viewer watching the display device 100 may perceive non-uniformity of the amount and/or the density of the light L. For example, when an amount of light L incident on an upper portion of the second sheet area 126b is more than an amount of light L incident on a lower portion of the second sheet area 126b, a corresponding area may be recognized as being brighter than other areas because of the light L reflected from the upper portion of the second sheet area 126b.
As shown in
Because the angle of the second sheet area 126b passing the intersection point P increases, a density of the light L emitted from the lens 124b (refer to
As shown in
The dot DT may be an area having a pattern different from other areas. The dot DT may be an area of uneven portions (or concave-convex portions) formed on the reflecting sheet 126. The dot DT may be an area, in which at least a portion of the reflecting sheet 126 is colored. For example, the dot DT may be an area of a relatively dark color. For example, the dot DT may be a black or gray area. The dot DT may be an area, in which the uneven portion and the colored portion are mixed with each other. The dot DT may have a geometric shape, in which there is a difference in at least one of a shape, a size, a location, and a color. For example, the dot DT may be one of various shapes including a circle, an oval, a rectangle, a rod, a triangle, etc., formed on the reflecting sheet 126 and/or a combination of the various shapes.
The dots DT may affect a reflectance of a corresponding area. Namely, the dots DT may change a reflectance of light. For example, the reflectance of light may be reduced depending on at least one of a shape, a size, a location, and a color of the dot DT. The plurality of dots DT may gather (or arranged) and form a dot area DA.
The dot area DA may be a gathering (or arranging) of the dots DT. Namely, the dot area DA may be a formation area of the plurality of dots DT, which are the same as or different from one another in at least one of a shape, a size, a location, and a color. For example, the dot area DA may be formed in at least a portion of the second sheet area 126b. As described above, a density of light per unit area in the second sheet area 126b may be high because of the inclined shape of the second sheet area 126b. The dot area DA may change a reflectance of light incident on the second sheet area 126b. In other words, a density of incident light per unit area is high, but a density of reflected light per unit area may decrease. Thus, a phenomenon, in which a contrast of a portion corresponding to the second sheet area 126b is different from a contrast of other portions, may be prevented. Namely, light can be uniformly reflected from the entire reflecting sheet 126 because of the dot area DA. The dots DT constituting the dot area DA may be divided into a plurality of groups having different attributes. For example, a formation area of dots having a first attribute may be called a first area, and a formation area of dots having a second attribute may be called a second area. Hereinafter, the dot area DA may be displayed by changing the color, the density, etc., of the reflecting sheet 126, and areas having the different colors, densities, etc., may be formation areas of dots having different attributes even if a separate explanation is not given. For example, dots having different attributes may be disposed in an area with a first color and an area with a second color. Namely, dots, which are different from one another in at least one of the size, the density, the color, and the interval, may be disposed in different areas.
The reflecting sheet 126 may further include a non-dot area NDA. The non-dot area NDA may be an area, in which there is no dot DT. The non-dot area NDA may be positioned in various areas of the reflecting sheet 126. For example, the non-dot area NDA may include first and second non-dot areas NDA1 and NDA2.
A width of the non-dot area NDA may be greater than a distance between adjacent dots. Namely, the width of the non-dot area NDA in a direction from the first sheet area 126a to the third sheet area 126c may be greater than a distance between two dots adjacent to the non-dot area NDA. The width of the non-dot area NDA may be equal to or greater than 2 mm.
The second non-dot area NDA2 may be positioned at a boundary between the second sheet area 126b and the third sheet area 126c. The second non-dot area NDA2 may be positioned in the second sheet area 126b at the boundary between the second sheet area 126b and the third sheet area 126c.
The second non-dot area NDA2 may be an uppermost area of the second sheet area 126b and thus may be close to the optical sheet 125 and/or the diffusion plate 129 positioned in front of the reflecting sheet 126. Hence, if the dot DT exists in the second non-dot area NDA2, the user of the display device 100 may observe the dot DT. Thus, the dot DT may not exist in the second non-dot area NDA2.
As shown in
As shown in (a) of
The distance between the dots DT may affect the reflectance of the reflecting sheet 126. For example, when the distance between the dots DT decreases, the reflectance may decrease.
As shown in (b) of
As shown in (a) of
The second area P2 may be positioned further outside than the first area P1. Namely, the second area P2 may be an area close to the third sheet area 126c. The second dot DT2 of the second area P2 may be larger than the first dot DT1 of the first area P1. Thus, a reflectance of the second area P2 may be less than a reflectance of the first area P1.

As shown in
The dot area DA may be formed along the long side and/or the short side of the reflecting sheet 126. Namely, the dot area DA may be formed in the corner area of the reflecting sheet 126. In other words, the dot area DA may be formed in the second sheet area 126b (refer to
The dot area DA may include first and second horizontal dot areas HDA1 and HDA2 and first and second vertical dot areas VDA1 and VDA2. The first and second horizontal dot areas HDA1 and HDA2 are represented as the horizontal dot area HDA, and the first and second vertical dot areas VDA1 and VDA2 are represented as the vertical dot area VDA, except in the instance where they need to be distinguished from each other.
A shape of the horizontal dot area HDA may be different from a shape of the vertical dot area VDA. For example, the shape of the horizontal dot area HDA may not be symmetric to the shape of the vertical dot area VDA based on a cutting portion S1 positioned at the corner of the reflecting sheet 126.
The reflecting sheet 126 may include lens holes 235 for coupling the lenses 124b (refer to
The lens holes 235 may be disposed in parallel with one another along the horizontal and vertical directions based on the size of the display device 100.
The fixing pin hole 206 may be coupled to the fixing pin 202 (refer to
The fixing pin hole 206 may be positioned adjacent to the lens hole 235 disposed on the outermost side. For example, the fixing pin hole 206 may be positioned closer to the outermost side than the outermost lens hole 235. For example, the fixing pin hole 206 may be positioned at a location overlapping the outermost lens hole 235.
When the fixing pin 202 (refer to
A distance between the fixing pin holes 206 may be differently set. For example, a number of fixing pin holes 206 positioned in a horizontal center area HCA may be more than a number of fixing pin holes 206 positioned in other areas based on the horizontal direction of the reflecting sheet 126.
A distance between the fixing pin holes 206 positioned in the horizontal center area HCA may be called a first horizontal distance HD1, and a distance between the fixing pin holes 206 positioned in areas other than the horizontal center area HCA may be called a second horizontal distance HD2. The first horizontal distance HD1 may be less than the second horizontal distance HD2. Namely, the fixing pin holes 206 in the horizontal center area HCA may be more densely disposed. Thus, a round chamfer may be naturally formed at the four upper, lower, left, and right corners of the reflecting sheet 126 while the reflecting sheet 126 is efficiently fixed.
The fixing pin holes 206 disposed in the vertical direction may exist. For example, the fixing pin holes 206 may be disposed along the left and right short sides of the reflecting sheet 126.
The fixing pin holes 206 on the first short side SS1 may be disposed at predetermined intervals of a first vertical distance VD1. The fixing pin holes 206 on the second short side SS2 may be disposed at predetermined intervals of a second vertical distance VD2. The first vertical distance VD1 and the second vertical distance VD2 may be different from each other. The second vertical distance VD2 may be greater than the first vertical distance VD1.
A difference between the first vertical distance VD1 and the second vertical distance VD2 may be generated by a shape of the frame 130 coupled to the reflecting sheet 126. For example, the difference between the first vertical distance VD1 and the second vertical distance VD2 may be generated by a coupling space of a rib for assisting rigidity of the frame 130 and/or various electronic parts coupled to the frame 130. The supporter holes 205 may be coupled to the supporters 200. The supporter holes 205 may support the diffusion plate 129 (refer to
The horizontal coupling unit HH and the vertical coupling unit VH may be disposed along the corner area of the reflecting sheet 126. The horizontal coupling unit HH and the vertical coupling unit VH may be inserted into the protrusions of the frame 130 (refer to
Outermost lens holes 235a to 235c may mean the lens hole 235 positioned on the outermost side. Among the outermost lens holes 235a to 235c, the first and second outermost lens holes 235a and 235b positioned on the upper side may be separated from the lower side of the horizontal dot area HDA by a first distance HDS and may be separated from the upper side of the horizontal dot area HDA by a second distance HDE. Among the outermost lens holes 235a to 235c, the first and third lens holes 235a and 235c positioned on the side may be separated from the lower side of the vertical dot area VDA by a third distance VDS and may be separated from the upper side of the vertical dot area VDA by a fourth distance VDE.
The first distance HDS may be different from the third distance VDS, and the second distance HDE may be different from the fourth distance VDE. This means that a width, a length, etc., of the horizontal dot area HDA may be different from a width, a length, etc., of the vertical dot area VDA.
The first distance HDS may be greater than the third distance VDS. Namely, a distance between the horizontal dot area HDA and the lens hole 235 is greater than a distance between the vertical dot area VDA and the lens hole 235.
The second sheet area 126b (refer to
The non-dot area NDA may be positioned between the horizontal/vertical dot area HDA or VDA and a horizontal/vertical margin area HM or VM. Namely, the non-dot area NDA not including the dot DT may be positioned on the horizontal/vertical dot area HDA or VDA, so that the user watching the display device 100 cannot recognize the dots DT. The non-dot area NDA is formed considering that the dots DT may be recognized from the outside when the dots DT exist in a corresponding area.
The horizontal and vertical margin areas HM and VM may correspond to the third sheet area 126c. Namely, the horizontal and vertical margin areas HM and VM may be an outermost area of the reflecting sheet 126. In other words, the horizontal and vertical margin areas HM and VM may be an area of the reflecting sheet 126 contacting the third frame area 130c of the frame 130 (refer to
A gap CR may exist between the horizontal margin area HM and the vertical margin area VM. The reflecting sheet 126 may be a plane. Namely, the reflecting sheet 126 may be a two-dimensional plane. When the reflecting sheet 126 of the two-dimensional shape is coupled to the receiving unit 132 (refer to
A folded portion S2 may extend from an end of the cutting portion S1. The folded portion S2 may not be cut, unlike the cutting portion S1. The folded portion S2 may be formed by previously folding a corresponding area along the cutting portion S1. Thus, when the reflecting sheet 126 is changed into the three-dimensional shape in the receiving unit 132 (refer to
As shown in
The arrangement of the dots DT in the dot area DA may be related to the arrangement of the lens holes 235. As described above, the lens hole 235 may correspond to the light source 203 (refer to
The plurality of lens holes 235 may be disposed on the reflecting sheet 126 in accordance with a predetermined rule. Some of the plurality of lens holes 235 may be disposed adjacent to the dot area DA. For example, the lens holes 235 may be separated from the dot area DA by a predetermined distance and may be disposed in parallel with each other.
A first area AR1 and a second area AR2 may be formed based on the lens holes 235. For example, the first area AR1 may correspond to an outmost hole among the lens hole 235, and the second area AR2 may be positioned between the first areas AR1. For example, the first area AR1 may be an area including the lens hole 235, and the second area AR2 may be an area between the lens holes 235.
The dots DT disposed in the first area AR1 and the second area AR2 may have different attributes. For example, a pattern of the dot included in the first area AR1 may be different from a pattern of the dot included in the second area AR2. The pattern of the dot may mean at least one group of a size, a density, a color, and an arrangement of the dots DT. For example, at least one of a size, a density, and a color of the dot DT in the first area AR1 may be different from at least one of a size, a density, and a color of the dot DT in the second area AR2. The difference is because intensities of light beams reaching the first area AR1 and the second area AR2 may be different from each other depending on a distance between the lens hole 235 and the first area AR1 and the second area AR2.
A size of a specific dot included in the first area AR1 may be different from a size of a specific dot included in the second area AR2. The dots of the first and second areas AR1 and AR2 may be different from each other in a location. For example, a size of a first dot included in the first area AR1 may be different from a size of a second dot which is included in the second area AR2 and is closer to the first sheet area 126a than the first dot.
As shown in
The horizontal dot area HDA may be a dot area DA formed on the long side of the reflecting sheet 126, and a vertical dot area VDA may be a dot area DA formed on the short side of the reflecting sheet 126. Detailed locations of the horizontal dot area HDA and the vertical dot area VDA will be described in corresponding paragraphs.
As shown in (a) of
Dots in the plurality of areas of the horizontal dot area HDA and/or the vertical dot area VDA may have different attributes. For example, a size and/or a density of a dot DT in the uppermost area A may be greater than a size and/or a density of a dot DT in the lowermost area E. A size and/or a density of a dot DT in the inner area C may be greater than a size and/or a density of dots DT in the leftmost area B and the rightmost area D.
As shown in (b) of
As shown in (c) of
The attribute of the dot DT including the size may change gradually or non-gradually. For example, in an area ranging from the outer area to the inner area of the horizontal dot area HDA and/or the vertical dot area VDA, the size of the dot DT may gradually change or may change depending on a location. For example, the size of the dot DT in a first area including the left and right sides of the horizontal dot area HDA and/or the vertical dot area VDA may be different from the size of the dot DT in a second area including the inner side of the horizontal dot area HDA and/or the vertical dot area VDA. In other words, there may be a difference in at least one of the size, the color, the interval, and the density of the dots DT disposed in a horizontal direction and/or a vertical direction of the horizontal dot area HDA and/or the vertical dot area VDA. For example, in an instance of the horizontal dot area HDA, sizes of two dots DT positioned adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction of the horizontal dot area HDA may be different from each other. The arrangement of the dots DT may be related to the lens hole positioned along the horizontal direction of the horizontal dot area HDA. Namely, a portion, in which the lens hole is positioned, may be brighter, and other areas may be darker. The dots DT having different attributes may be arranged along the horizontal direction of the horizontal dot area HDA, so as to prevent a luminance difference, in which a brighter portion and a darker portion are present.
As shown in
An amount range of the dots constituting the horizontal dot area HDA may be greater than an amount range of the dots constituting the vertical dot area VDA. For example, when the dots having the same size are used, a number of dots included in the horizontal dot area HDA may be more or less than a number of dots included in the vertical dot area VDA.
As shown in
The horizontal dot area HDA may include first to third horizontal dot areas HDA1 to HDA3. Namely, the dot area DA may be divided into a plurality of areas. The first horizontal dot area HDA1 may be an area including both sides of the horizontal dot area HDA and may be a boundary area in an inside direction of the reflecting sheet 126. The second horizontal dot area HDA2 may be an area inside the first horizontal dot area HDA1, and the third horizontal dot area HDA3 may be an area inside the second horizontal dot area HDA2.
The dots DT in the first to third horizontal dot areas HDA1 to HDA3 may have different attributes. Namely, there may be a difference between the dots DT of the first to third horizontal dot areas HDA1 to HDA3 in at least one of a size, a density, and a color of the dot DT. For example, the dots DT included in the first horizontal dot area HDA1 may be the same as one another in at least one of the size, the distance, the density, and the color. However, the dot DT of the first horizontal dot area HDA1 may be different from the dot DT of the second horizontal dot area HDA2 in at least one of the size, the distance, the density, and the color. Considering the above description, each of the first to third horizontal dot areas HDA1 to HDA3 may be regarded as the gathering of the dots DT1 having the same attribute.
The vertical dot area VDA may include first to third vertical dot areas VDA1 to VDA3. The dots DT constituting the first to third vertical dot areas VDA1 to VDA3 may have different attributes. The above description of the first to third horizontal dot areas HDA1 to HDA3 of the horizontal dot area HDA may be equally applied to the first to third vertical dot areas VDA1 to VDA3 of the vertical dot area VDA.
The horizontal dot area HDA and the vertical dot area VDA may be adjacent to four corner areas of the reflecting sheet 126. For example, the horizontal dot area HDA may be disposed on one side of a cutting portion S1, and the vertical dot area VDA may be disposed on the other side of the cutting portion S1. The first horizontal dot area HDA1 and the first vertical dot area VDA1 may be positioned in an area including the corner area close to the horizontal dot area HDA and the vertical dot area VDA
Because the corner area is relatively far away from the lens hole 235, the corner area may be relatively dark. Thus, the dot DT may not be disposed in the middle of the corner area. The dots DT having a relatively high reflectance may be disposed in the first horizontal dot area HDA1 and the first vertical dot area VDA1 close to the corner area. For example, the relatively small dots DT may be disposed. For example, the dots DT having the relatively low density may be disposed.
As shown in
A portion of light emitted from the second lens hole group 235b may be shielded by the first lens hole group 235a. For example, a shielding area LH may be formed. The brightness of a corresponding area may be less than the brightness of other area because of the shielding area LH. Thus, the dots DT of the shielding area LH and the dots DT of other area may be differently configured. For example, a size of the dot DTr in at least a portion of the shielding area LH may be different from that in the other area.
As shown in
The dots DT of the protrusion area PD may be different from other areas dots. In other words, although the protrusion area PD is included in the first area AR1, a size of a dot included in the protrusion area PD may be different from the size of the dot included in the first area AR1. For example, it is possible that a size and/or a density can be larger in the dots of the protrusion area PD. The reflection can be controlled by changing an attribute of the dot in the protrusion area PD.
As shown in
A first dot DT1 constituting the protrusion area PD may be different from a second dot DT2 in the rear of the first dot DT1.
A shape of the horizontal dot area HDA may be different from a shape of the vertical dot area VDA. For example, the protrusion area PD may be included only in one of the horizontal dot area HDA and the vertical dot area VDA. This may be related to the fact that a number of lens holes 235 in the horizontal dot area HDA is more than a number of lens holes 235 in the vertical dot area VDA. An attribute of a dot closest to the first sheet area 126a in the first area AR1 may be different from an attribute of a dot closest to the first sheet area 126a in the second area AR2. In other words, the attribute of the dot positioned on the innermost side in the first area AR1 may be different from the attribute of the dot positioned on the innermost side in the second area AR2. For example, a size of a dot positioned on the innermost side in the first area AR1 of the vertical dot area VDA may be different from a size of a dot positioned on the innermost side in the second area AR2 of the vertical dot area VDA.
As shown in
The horizontal dot area HDA may be divided. For example, the horizontal dot area HDA may be divided into first to third horizontal areas HA1 to HA3. The second horizontal area HA2 may be a center area of the horizontal dot area HDA. The first and third horizontal areas HA1 and HA3 may correspond to both sides of the second horizontal area HA2.
The first and third horizontal areas HA1 and HA3 may have a shape different from the second horizontal area HA2. For example, the first and third horizontal areas HA1 and HA3 may have a shape protruding to the inside of the reflecting sheet 126 further than the second horizontal area HA2. For example, the second horizontal area HA2 may have a fourth height H4. The fourth height H4 may be less than at least one of first to third heights H1 to H3. The shape difference may be because the first and third horizontal areas HA1 and HA3 are closer to the corner of the reflecting sheet 126 than the second horizontal area HA2. Namely, because the reflecting sheet 126 has the rounded shape in the horizontal and vertical directions at the corner of the reflecting sheet 126, the luminance needs to be more precisely controlled.
In the first and third horizontal areas HA1 and HA3, the horizontal dot area HDA may have the shape protruding in a predetermined pattern along the inside direction of the reflecting sheet 126. For example, the horizontal dot area HDA may have the shape protruding by the first height H1 and the second height H2 and then protruding by the third height H3. The first and third heights H1 and H3 may be greater than the second height H2. The first and third heights H1 and H3 may be different from each other. For example, the first heights H1 may be greater than the third height H3. The horizontal dot area HDA of the first height H1 and the horizontal dot area HDA of the third height H3 may be formed between the lens holes 235. For example, the horizontal dot area HDA of the first and third heights H1 and H3 may be formed in first and second areas A1 and A2 between the lens holes 235. Because light beams emitted from the plurality of lens holes 235 overlap each other through the above-described shape of the horizontal dot area HDA, the brightness of the first and second areas A1 and A2 may be efficiently controlled.
