Abstract:
A liquid crystal display and backlight module thereof. The backlight module includes a light source and a light source holder, supporting and abutting the light source. The light source holder comprises an airflow passageway and a plurality of vent holes. Each vent hole communicates with the airflow passageway such that heat produced by the light source is dissipated through the vent holes and the airflow passageway to the exterior of the backlight module.
Abstract:
A backlight device for a liquid crystal display (13) comprises several lamps (1) disposed within a housing (20). Each lamp (1) comprises a part that can be cooled so as to obtain a good light output. The said parts of the lamps (1) extend through the wall (18) of the housing (20) into a channel (21) through which air can flow. The lamps (1) are tube-like fluorescent lamps, which extend into the channel (21) with at least one end.
Abstract:
An electro-optical apparatus encased in the mounting case includes an electro-optical device in which the light emitted from a light source is incident on an image display region, and a mounting case including a plate disposed to face one surface of the electro-optical device and a cover to cover the electro-optical device, a portion of the cover abutting against the plate, wherein the mounting case accommodates the electro-optical device by holding at least a portion of a peripheral region located at the circumference of the image display region of the electro-optical device with at least one of the plate and the cover. In addition, the cover has a surface area increasing portion to increase the surface area thereof.
Abstract:
A main heater controller is adapted to control operation of the LCD heater. A temperature controlled override switch is adapted to disable the LCD heater, independent of the main heater controller, upon a temperature reaching a shut-off temperature above a normal operating temperature of the LCD. The temperature controlled switch has a current flow path made of a material whose conductivity is a function of temperature. A cavity in which the temperature controlled switch is located is also provided. The cavity is adapted to transfer heat in air emanating from the LCD heater to the temperature controlled switch. The housing which forms the cavity also includes a vent system for the cavity.
Abstract:
A back light module disposed under a display panel has at least a light source generator for generating light beams, a diffusing plate for scattering the light beams to the display panel, a light guide plate (LGP) for scattering the light beams to the diffusing plate, a reflecting sheet for scattering the light beams to the light guide plate. The reflecting sheet has at least an opening for dissipating heat generated by the operation of the light source generator of the back light module.
Abstract:
A direct backlight module includes a reflective base, a buffer block, a lamp tube and a casing. Two opposite side regions of the reflective base both have two opposite openings located at two ends of each side region separately. The buffer block is disposed on the reflective base and positioned opposite to one of the openings. The lamp tube has two opposite electrodes at two ends of the lamp tube separately, and one of the electrodes is mounted in the buffer block. The casing covers the buffer block and there is an airflow channel formed by the combination of the inner chamber of the casing and the openings when the casing is installed in the reflective base.
Abstract:
The invention provides a technique to effectively cool an electro-optical device in the electro-optical device encased in a mounting case. The mounting case can include a plate member arranged so as to face one surface of a liquid crystal panel and a cover member arranged so as to cover the plate and the liquid crystal panel. Cooling-air guiding portions that include at least some of the side surfaces of the liquid crystal panel as at least some of the surfaces that constitute the passage can be provided in the cover member.
Abstract:
A backlight module for liquid crystal display includes a casing having a bottom wall and a circumferential side wall extending from the bottom wall to define an open top. A light guide plate is attached to the side wall and spaced from the bottom to define an interior space therebetween. A light diffusion plate and a protection plate are respectively mounted to the top opening of the casing. A plurality of lamps are arranged in the interior space and spaced from each other. First vent holes are defined in the side wall of the casing to allow air to flow in and out of the interior space for removing heat generated by the lamps. Second vent holes are defined in the side wall and are paired of which the second vent holes are opposite to each other. A triangular channel is formed between the second vent holes of each pair by two inclined side walls. Air is allowed to flow into the channel via one of the second vent holes, through the channel and eventually leaving the channel via another second vent hole. The air flowing through the channel removes heat induced on the side walls by radiation of the lamps. The side walls of each channel, which have reflective surfaces, are arranged to reflect light from the adjacent lamps toward the light guide plate for uniformly distributing the light over the light guide plate, which is then projected onto the liquid crystal display.
