[0085] (First Embodiment)

[0086] Below, refer to Figure 4 ~ Figure 8 The surface light source device 31 of the first embodiment of the present invention will be described. Figure 4 Is a perspective view showing the surface light source device 31 of the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5A Is its top view. In addition, Figure 5B Yes Figure 5A The X-X cross-sectional view of, which enlargedly shows the cross-section of the cylindrical lens 36 provided on the surface of the light guide plate 33. Image 6 It is a schematic cross-sectional view obtained when the surface light source device 31 is cut along the longitudinal direction, and shows the trajectory of light in a plane perpendicular to the light incident surface 38 and the light exit surface 39 of the light guide plate 33. Figure 7 It is a diagram showing a cross section of the directivity conversion pattern 40 on a cross section parallel to the light incident surface 38 of the light guide plate 33, and s...

[0119] (Second Embodiment)

[0120] Figure 19 It is a perspective view showing a surface light source device 61 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Picture 20 It is a plan view of the surface light source device 61. Figure 21 The cross-sectional shape of the directivity conversion pattern 40 on a cross-section parallel to the light incident surface 38 is shown. In addition, in Figure 21 , A part of the directivity conversion pattern 40 is enlarged and displayed.

[0121] In the surface light source device 61 of the second embodiment of the present invention, the directivity conversion pattern 40 is partially removed in the vicinity of the optical axis C of the point light source 32 to form a flat surface 62 (mirror surface). In particular, in the illustrated example, a triangular flat surface 62 sandwiched by the left-right directivity conversion pattern 40 is provided.

Abstract

A light guide plate includes a light introduction unit that confines light incident from a point light source through the light incident surface and a light guide plate body thinner than the maximum thickness of the light introduction unit. The light introduction unit includes an inclined surface inclined toward an end of a surface of the light guide plate body from a surface in a portion having the thickness greater than that of the light guide plate body. The light guide plate body includes a directivity conversion pattern located between the light introduction unit and an effective illumination region of the light guide plate body on at least one of a surface at a light emergent side and an opposite surface thereof. The directivity conversion pattern converts a directivity direction of the light passing through an effective illumination region from the light introduction unit such that an angle formed by the light and a direction perpendicular to the light incident surface increases when viewed from a direction perpendicular to a light exit surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a light guide plate and a surface light source device. Specifically, it relates to a surface light source device used as a backlight of a liquid crystal display device or the like, and a light guide plate used for the surface light source device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, along with the reduction in thickness of mobile devices incorporating surface light source devices, reduction in thickness of surface light source devices has also been demanded. In order to reduce the thickness of the surface light source device, it is necessary to reduce the thickness of the light guide plate. However, even if the thickness of the flat light guide plate can be reduced, there is a limit to reducing the height of the light source composed of LED (light-emitting diode: light-emitting diode). Therefore, in the case of using a flat light guide plate, since the height of the light source is greater than the thickness of the ...
