DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , this utility model provides a sealing structure for a light guide plate, including a light guide plate body 1 and an aluminum alloy frame 2. The aluminum alloy frame 2 is fixed on one side of the light guide plate body 1. A cavity 3 is arranged inside the aluminum alloy frame 2. An LED light strip 4 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the cavity 3. A sealing mechanism is arranged between the cavity 3 and the light guide plate body 1;

[0019] The sealing mechanism includes a transparent support plate 5, a sealing outer plate 6 and a sealing inner plate 7. The sealing inner plate 7 is fixedly arranged on one side of the sealing outer plate 6. One side of the sealing outer plate 6 is arranged inside the cavity 3 and fits against the inner wall of the aluminum alloy frame 2 and the surface of the light guide plate body 1. The transparent support plate 5 is fixedly arranged inside the cavity 3 and fits against the side wall of the light guide plate body 1. The sealing inner plate 7 is arranged inside the cavity 3 and fits against the side surface of the light guide plate body 1 and the surface of the transparent support plate 5.

[0020] The light guide plate body 1 includes an aluminum alloy bottom plate 8, a reflector 9, a light guide substrate 10 and a diffusion plate 11. The aluminum alloy bottom plate 8, the reflector 9, the light guide substrate 10 and the diffusion plate 11 are arranged in sequence from bottom to top. Two sealing outer plates 6 respectively fit against the surfaces of the diffusion plate 11 and the aluminum alloy bottom plate 8. Two sealing inner plates 7 respectively fit against the side surfaces of the diffusion plate 11 and the aluminum alloy bottom plate 8. The transparent support plate 5 fits against the side surfaces of the light guide substrate 10 and the diffusion plate 11.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 and 2 , the transparent support plate 5 is arranged between the LED light strip 4 and the light guide substrate 10. The LED light strip 4 can pass through the transparent support plate 5 to introduce light into the light guide substrate 10, and the transparent support plate 5 can accommodate the LED light strip 4 between the cavity 3 and the transparent support plate 5 to prevent dust from entering the cavity 3 and adhering to the LED light strip 4, which affects the normal operation of the light guide substrate 10. The sealing outer plate 6 and the sealing inner plate 7 can fill the gaps between the cavity 3 and the light guide plate body 1 and the aluminum alloy frame 2, thereby improving the sealing performance between the light guide plate body 1 and the aluminum alloy frame 2.

[0022] A receiving groove 12 is arranged on the surface of the transparent support plate 5. A matching part 13 is arranged on the surface of the sealing inner plate 7 and is matched with the receiving groove 12. The matching part 13 is engaged in the receiving groove 12. A limiting part 18 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the cavity 3. An accommodation cavity 19 is formed between the two limiting parts 18. One end of the transparent support plate 5 is engaged in the accommodation cavity 19

[0023] Please refer to Figure 2, the provision of the accommodation groove 12 and the mating portion 13 can increase the contact area between the sealing inner plate 7 and the transparent support plate 5, so that dust and impurities are difficult to pass through between the sealing inner plate 7 and the transparent support plate 5. The provision of the limiting portion 18 and the accommodation cavity 19 can fix the transparent support plate 5, thus realizing the installation between the transparent support plate 5 and the aluminum alloy frame 2.

[0024] A convex portion 14 is fixedly provided on the surface of the sealing outer plate 6, and a groove 15 matching the convex portion 14 is provided on the inner wall of the cavity 3. The convex portion 14 is engaged in the groove 15. A sealing portion 16 is fixedly provided on the surface of the sealing outer plate 6, and a sealing groove 17 matching the sealing portion 16 is provided on the surfaces of the diffusion plate 11 and the aluminum alloy bottom plate 8. The sealing portion 16 is engaged in the sealing groove 17.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 and 2 , the provision of the convex portion 14 and the groove 15 can realize the connection between the sealing outer plate 6 and the aluminum alloy frame 2. The provision of the sealing portion 16 and the sealing groove 17 can increase the contact area between both sides of the sealing outer plate 6 and the aluminum alloy frame 2 and the light guide plate body 1, so that dust and impurities are difficult to enter the gap, and from Figure 1 it can be seen that the cross-section of the sealing portion 16 is set as a triangular structure, which makes it impossible for dust to move from the lower part of the sealing portion 16 to the upper part of the sealing portion 16, unless there is too much dust accumulation in the gap, resulting in dust entering the sealing groove 17 under the action of extrusion force. However, when this situation occurs, there will be a lot of dust at the connection between the light guide plate body 1 and the sealing outer plate 6, which can remind the staff to clean the dust in time. Therefore, this situation will not occur.

[0026] Structural principle: This solution prevents dust and impurities from entering the cavity 3 to interfere with the normal operation of the light guide plate body 1 by filling the gaps between the cavity 3, the aluminum alloy frame 2 and the light guide plate body 1 through the provision of the sealing outer plate 6, the sealing inner plate 7 and the transparent support plate 5. And through the provision of the accommodation groove 12, the mating portion 13, the convex portion 14, the groove 15, the sealing portion 16, the sealing groove 17, the limiting portion 18 and the accommodation cavity 19, the contact area between the sealing inner plate 7 and the transparent support plate 5, the contact area between the sealing outer plate 6 and the aluminum alloy frame 2, and the contact area between the sealing outer plate 6 and the light guide plate body 1 can be increased respectively, so as to prevent dust from entering the cavity 3.

[0027] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
