Problems solved by technology

[0015] However, in the planar lighting devices using the light guide plate described in JP-A-07-36037, JP-A-08-248233, JP-08-271739, and JP-11-153963, in order to increase the size of To make the light reach a farther position from the light source, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the light guide plate itself
That is, there is a problem that the thickness and weight of the planar lighting device cannot be reduced.
[0016] Moreover, since JP-A-07-36037, JP-08-248233, JP-08-271739, and JP-11-153963 disclose that the thickness decreases as the distance from the incident position of the light source There is a limit to the reaching distance of light in the inclined shape or flat plate shape, so there is still a problem of limited size

Abstract

A planar illumination device that is thin and lightweight, can emit illumination light uniform and having no irregularity in brightness, and can be increased in size. The planar illumination device has a light source and at least one light guide plate placed facing the light source. The light guide plate has a light entrance surface facing the light source and a light exit surface including one side of the light entrance surface. The light guide plate is shaped such that the farther from the light entrance surface, the greater the thickness of the plate in the direction normal to the light exit surface. The light guide plate contains scattering particles that scatter light entering from the entrance surface and propagating in the plate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a planar lighting device used in liquid crystal display devices and the like. Background technique [0002] In the liquid crystal display device, a backlight unit for illuminating the liquid crystal display panel by irradiating light from the back side of the liquid crystal display panel can be used. The backlight unit is composed of a light guide plate that diffuses light emitted from a light source for illumination to illuminate the liquid crystal display panel; and a prism plate or a diffuser plate that uniformizes the light emitted from the light guide plate. [0003] Currently, the mainstream of backlight units for large LCD TVs is a so-called direct-type type in which a light guide plate is arranged directly above a light source for illumination. In this method, a plurality of cold-cathode tubes as light sources are disposed on the back of the liquid crystal display panel, and the interior is used as a white refl...
