Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a display panel and a backlight unit. The backlight unit includes a light source, a first substrate on which the light source is mounted, a driving substrate which supplies driving power to the light source, a second substrate connecting the first substrate to the driving substrate, a connector mounted on the driving substrate and coupled to the second substrate, and a dam mounted on the driving substrate and facing the connector with the second substrate interposed therebetween. The dam restricts movement of the second substrate in a direction away from the connector.
Abstract:
A display device includes a light guide plate, a light source unit adjacent to a side surface of the light guide plate and including a printed circuit board and a light source which is on the printed circuit board, and a connection member which connects the light guide plate to the light source unit. The light guide plate, the printed circuit board and the connection member together encapsulate the light source. The connection member includes a first inclined surface which contacts an upper surface of the light guide plate. The first inclined surface forms two angles with the upper surface of the light guide plate and an angle closer to the light source unit among the two angles is an acute angle.
Abstract:
A display device includes a display panel which displays an image with light, a light guide plate through which the light is guided and which guides the light to the display panel, and an absorption filter provided in plural. The light guide plate defines a light exit surface thereof through which the light is emitted to the display panel and a rear surface thereof opposite to the light exit surface. The absorption filters are provided on the rear surface of the light guide plate. The absorption filters on the rear surface of the light guide plate each include a first filter layer and a second filter layer. The first filter layer has a first refractive index. The second filter layer is on the first filter layer and has a second refractive index lower than the first refractive index.
Abstract:
A display device includes a curved display panel and a backlight unit. The backlight unit includes a light guide film and a light source unit. The light guide film defines: a light emission part thereof facing the display panel, a folding part thereof extending from the light emission part to be folded in a folded state of the light guide film, and a light incident part thereof extending from the folding part to face the display panel with the light emission part therebetween, The light incident part is extended at a first end thereof from the folding part and defines a light incident surface of the light guide film at a second end of the light incident part opposite to the first end thereof. The light source unit is overlapped with the light emission part and face the light incident surface.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a backlight unit which provides a light to the display panel, and a light control member disposed between the display panel and the backlight unit. The light control member includes a plurality of first barrier wall members extending in a first direction and arranged in a second direction crossing the first direction.
