LIGHT GUIDE PLATE, BACKLIGHT MODULE, AND DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17311827 titled 'LIGHT GUIDE PLATE, BACKLIGHT MODULE, AND DISPLAY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a light guide plate for a display panel, which includes a light-entering surface, a light-exiting surface, and a bottom surface. The light guide plate has a central region corresponding to the active display area of the panel and a peripheral region corresponding to the non-display area.
- The peripheral region of the light guide plate has a smaller thickness than the central region.
- The light guide plate allows light to propagate inside it in a specific direction and exit in another direction.
- The disclosure also includes a backlight module and a display device incorporating this light guide plate.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Display panels in electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions.
- Signage and advertising displays.
- Automotive displays and instrument clusters.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides uniform and efficient distribution of light across the display panel.
- Reduces the thickness and weight of the light guide plate, making it suitable for slim and lightweight devices.
- Enhances the overall brightness and image quality of the display.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved energy efficiency due to better light transmission.
- Enables thinner and lighter display devices.
- Enhances the visual experience with brighter and more vibrant displays.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides a light guide plate, including a light-entering surface, a light-exiting surface adjacent to the light-entering surface, and a bottom surface arranged opposite to the light-exiting surface. The light guide plate includes a central region corresponding to an active display region of a display panel and a peripheral region corresponding a non-display region of the display panel in a first direction, the peripheral region includes a first peripheral region at a side adjacent to the light-entering surface, at least the first peripheral region of the peripheral region has a thickness smaller than the central region in a second direction, the first direction is a direction in which light is propagated inside the light guide plate, and the second direction is a direction in which the light exits the light guide plate. The present disclosure further provides a backlight module and a display device.
