[0003] The common Mini-LED arrangement is basically a quadrilateral. When the LED lamp beads are tilted at a certain angle, the side of the Mini-LED will emit light. However, because the commonly used Mini-LED structure is a rectangular structure, there is a difference in the light-emitting area of ​​the long side and the short side of the Mini-LED, which makes the brightness of the adjacent matrix centers different, which in turn leads to uneven backlight display and affects the display effect. In addition, when the Mini-LED is arranged in a quadrilateral, the spacing between the Mini-LEDs is small, and the number of Mini-LEDs required to achieve the same light-emitting area is large, which is not conducive to reducing the production cost of the backlight module.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0030] See also Figure 1 The common Mini-LED wick arrangement is basically a quadrilateral, such as Figure 1 As shown, multiple Mini-LEDs are arranged at intervals on the driving substrate. When the LED lamp beads are arranged at a certain angle, light sources will be emitted from the sides of the Mini-LEDs. However, because the structure of the commonly used Mini-LEDs is a rectangular structure, there is a difference between the luminous area of ​​the surface where the long side of the Mini-LED is located and the luminous area of ​​the surface where the short side is located, resulting in differences in the brightness of adjacent matrix centers. Figure 1 The matrix structure consisting of the first row and first column, the first row and second column, the second row and first column, and the second row and second column is structure 1 (such as Figure 1 (shown in the dotted box in A); Figure 1 The matrix structure composed of the second row and first column, the second row and second column, the third row and first column, and the third row and second column is structure 2 (such as Figure 1 In structure 1, the surface where the long side of the Mini-LED is located is arranged toward the center of the matrix, so that the brightness of the center of the matrix in structure 1 is greater; in structure 2, the surface where the short side of the Mini-LED is located is arranged toward the center of the matrix, so that the brightness of the center of the matrix in structure 2 is smaller. Figure 1 On the driving substrate shown, structure 1 and structure 2 are arranged alternately, which makes the backlight display of the entire backlight module uneven, affecting the display effect. In addition, under the condition of the same light output area, when Mini-LEDs are arranged in a quadrilateral, the distance between adjacent Mini-LEDs is small, so that the number of Mini-LEDs required is large, which is not conducive to reducing the production cost of the backlight module.

In addition, any two adjacent sub-light-emitting groups 124 share two light-emitting units, and each of the octagonal structures of the first light-emitting chain 121 and the two adjacent octagonal structures on the second light-emitting chain 122 share one light-emitting unit, so each light-emitting unit can provide light sources for the two octagonal structures, which is conducive to saving the number of light-emitting units and reducing the production cost of the backlight module 100. Furthermore, the eight light-emitting units form an octagonal structure, and the brightness inside the octagonal structure is relatively weak. The first light-emitting unit 125 is arranged in the octagonal structure, which is conducive to improving the brightness inside the octagonal structure, so that the backlight display of the backlight module 100 is uniform and has a good display effect.
