Abstract:
An exemplary liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal panel (10), a light guide plate (12) located below the liquid crystal panel, an illuminator (16) located adjacent a side of the light guide plate, and an electrical connector (15) attached to a side of the light guide plate and receiving the illuminator therein. The illuminator is mechanically attached to the electrical connector, and contact points of the illuminator are in direct physical and electrical connection with corresponding contact points of the electrical connector.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (200) includes a transparent substrate (25), a light guide plate (28) disposed under the substrate, and a light source (29) disposed above the light guide plate at a thin side of the substrate. The light guide plate includes a top surface (280). An area of the top surface corresponding to the light source defines a light incident area, and another area of the top surface corresponding to the substrate defines a light emitting area.

Abstract:
An exemplary backlight module (4) includes a frame (44) and a light guide plate (40) received in the frame. The light guide plate has a top light emitting surface (404). The frame and an end (408) of the light guide plate cooperatively define a gap (46) therebetween. The gap has a narrowed exit (462) adjacent to the light emitting surface, whereby light beams are prevented from either or both of leaking out from the end of the light guide plate and leaking out from the gap via the narrowed exit.
Abstract:
An exemplary backlight module (20) has a light guide plate (24), and a frame (28) receiving the light guide plate. The light guide plate has a light incident surface (244), two side walls (241, 242) respectively adjoining the light incident surface. The frame has two grooves (288, 289) corresponding the two side walls. Each side wall of the light guide plate has a protrusion part (250) and a plane surface part (247) between the light incident surface and the protrusion part, the protrusion part is received in the corresponding groove, which has a length in a range from one third to two third the length of each corresponding side wall.
