Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of diffusion plate technology, specifically to a glass diffusion plate with a patterned structure. Background Technology

[0002] The backlight module is a key component of an LCD panel, its function being to provide sufficient brightness and uniformly distributed light source for the display. The backlight module mainly includes LED light sources, glass diffuser plates, and optical films. The glass diffuser plate typically has diffusion ink containing diffusion particles printed on the surface of a glass substrate, thus diffusing the point light source (emitted by the LED light source) into a surface light source. Generally, there is little difference in effect between printing two layers of diffusion ink on one side of the glass substrate and printing single layers of diffusion ink on each side; both can achieve good diffusion effects. However, the adhesion of the diffusion ink is often poor, and it is prone to detachment after bonding with the glass substrate, resulting in a loss of diffusion effect. Furthermore, printing two layers of diffusion ink also suffers from high ink costs and low production efficiency.

[0003] Currently, with the development of technology, it has been discovered that optical films (gain films) also have a certain light diffusion effect. Therefore, in existing technologies, optical films are used to replace diffusion inks for light diffusion. However, in practice, when optical films are bonded to glass substrates to replace diffusion inks, the resulting brightness uniformity is not particularly noticeable. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that diffusion ink is prone to peeling off on glass substrates, and the problem that brightness uniformity is not obvious when using optical films to completely replace diffusion ink. This invention designs a glass diffuser with a patterned structure, which solves the problems of easy delamination of diffusion ink and the problem of brightness uniformity of the diffuser plate after using optical films.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model designs a glass diffusion plate with a patterned structure, which includes the following structural configuration:

[0007] A glass substrate having a light-incident surface and a light-exiting surface opposite to each other, wherein a raised first pattern structure is provided on the light-incident surface and a raised second pattern structure is provided on the light-exiting surface.

[0008] An optical adhesive layer is stacked on the second pattern structure, and a plurality of air grooves are formed between the optical adhesive layer and the second pattern structure;

[0009] An optical film is laminated on the optical adhesive layer;

[0010] A sealing structure is arranged on the light exit surface, and the sealing structure extends to tightly fit the periphery of the optical film, so as to form a closed space between the optical film and the light exit surface;

[0011] A diffusion ink layer is laminated on the first pattern structure.

[0012] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the thickness of the glass substrate is 0.5-1.5mm.

[0013] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the first pattern structure and the second pattern structure are arranged to be the same or different.

[0014] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the first pattern structure and the second pattern structure are arranged to be the same or different.

[0015] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the height of the protrusions of the second pattern structure is greater than the thickness of the optical adhesive layer.

[0016] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the height of the protrusions of the first pattern structure and the second pattern structure is 45.0-80.0μm, and the thickness of the optical adhesive layer is 25.0-45.0μm.

[0017] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the material of the optical adhesive layer is selected from OCA or OSA optical adhesive.

[0018] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the optical film adopts a gain film, including but not limited to a brightness enhancement film, a diffusion film or COPP.

[0019] Specifically, the thickness of the optical film can be 30.0-60.0μm.

[0020] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the sealing structure is formed by curing an acrylic adhesive with a viscosity of 1100-1800mPa.s.

[0021] Further, a glass diffusion plate with a pattern structure: the thickness of the diffusion ink layer is 40.0-70.0μm.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0023] This invention creates a second patterned structure on the light-emitting surface of a glass substrate and bonds an optical film to it using an optical adhesive layer. The synergistic effect of the optical film and the second patterned structure replaces the diffusion ink layer, resulting in better brightness uniformity of the light source diffused by the second patterned structure and the optical film. Furthermore, the second patterned structure can be roll-formed, a relatively simple process that can be automated, and the bonding process for the optical film is also simple. Therefore, the scheme using the patterned structure and the bonded optical film in this application can replace the printing of diffusion ink, offering higher production efficiency and lower cost compared to diffusion ink. In addition, several air grooves are formed between the optical adhesive layer and the second patterned structure. Utilizing the fact that the refractive index of air is lower than that of the optical adhesive layer, the number of reflections of light in the diffuser plate is reduced, further enhancing the brightness of the diffuser plate.

[0024] This invention also provides a diffusion ink layer on the light-incident surface of the glass substrate. This layer, together with the second patterned structure on the light-emitting surface and the optical film, further enhances the overall brightness and uniformity of the diffusion plate. Simultaneously, a first patterned structure is also provided on the light-incident surface of the glass substrate, which effectively improves the adhesion between the diffusion ink layer and the light-incident surface, making the diffusion ink layer less prone to delamination and extending the service life of the diffusion plate. This glass diffusion plate uses a patterned glass instead of a traditional flat glass substrate. Compared to traditional double-layer diffusion ink glass diffusion plates, it reduces the amount of diffusion ink used, lowering costs. This application utilizes the synergistic effect of the diffusion ink layer, the first patterned structure, the air groove, the second patterned structure, and the optical film to improve the brightness, uniformity, and service life of the diffusion plate.

[0025] This invention also incorporates a sealing structure, which ensures a complete seal between the optical film and the glass substrate, preventing the entry of moisture and avoiding a decrease in the brightness, diffusion uniformity, and service life of the diffuser plate due to external moisture entering between the glass substrate and the optical film.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment 1 designs a glass diffuser plate with a patterned structure, which includes the following structural configuration:

[0035] A glass substrate 1 has an incident light surface 11 and an exit light surface 12. The incident light surface 11 is provided with a raised first pattern structure 13, and the exit light surface 12 is provided with a raised second pattern structure 14. The thickness of the glass substrate 1 is set to 1.0 mm. The first pattern structure 13 and the second pattern structure 14 are set to the same structure and are respectively set to spherical pattern structures. The protrusion height of the first pattern structure 13 and the second pattern structure 14 is respectively set to 50.0 μm.

[0036] An optical adhesive layer 2 is stacked on the second pattern structure 14, and a plurality of air grooves 15 are formed between the optical adhesive layer 2 and the second pattern structure 14. The optical adhesive layer 2 is made of OCA optical adhesive, and the thickness of the optical adhesive layer 2 is set to 30.0 μm.

[0037] An optical film 3 is stacked on the optical adhesive layer 2. The optical film 3 is a gain film with a thickness of 45.0 μm.

[0038] A sealing structure 4 is disposed on the light-emitting surface 12 and extends to be tightly fitted to the periphery of the optical film 3, so that a sealed space is formed between the optical film 3 and the light-emitting surface 12 to isolate external moisture. The sealing structure 4 can be formed by curing an acrylic adhesive with a viscosity of 1100-1800 mPa·s.

[0039] And a diffusion ink layer 5, which is stacked on the first pattern structure 13, wherein the thickness of the diffusion ink layer 5 is set to 45.0 μm.

[0040] Comparative Example 1

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, Comparative Example 1 provides a glass diffuser plate. The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that the first pattern structure 13 is not provided on the light-incident surface 11 of the glass substrate 1 of Comparative Example 1, and the second pattern structure 14 in Example 1 is not provided on the light-emitting surface 12 of the glass substrate 1 of Comparative Example 1. The glass diffuser plate of Comparative Example 1 does not have a sealing structure 4. The rest is the same as Example 1.

[0042] Comparative Example 2

[0043] like Figure 3As shown, Comparative Example 2 provides a glass diffusion plate. The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that the first pattern structure 13 is not provided on the light-incident surface 11 of the glass substrate 1 in Comparative Example 2, and the second pattern structure 14 is not provided on the light-emitting surface 12 of the glass substrate 1 in Comparative Example 2. Instead, a diffusion ink layer 5 identical to that on the light-incident surface 11 is provided on the light-emitting surface 12 to replace the second pattern structure 14 in Example 1. The glass diffusion plate of Comparative Example 2 does not have a sealing structure 4, and the rest is the same as Example 1.

[0044] Brightness tests were conducted on the glass diffuser plates of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-2. The results showed that the glass diffuser plate of Example 1 had good brightness and uniformity, while the glass diffuser plate of Comparative Example 1 had acceptable brightness but poor uniformity; and the glass diffuser plate of Comparative Example 2 had good uniformity but poor brightness.

[0045] The amount of diffusion ink used in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 is similar, but the light diffusion effect of the diffusion plate in Comparative Example 1 is not as good as that in Example 1. Furthermore, the diffusion ink layer 5 in Comparative Example 1 is prone to peeling off and moisture erosion, which leads to a decrease in the brightness, diffusion uniformity, and service life of the diffusion plate. While the diffusion plate in Comparative Example 2 has acceptable light uniformity, it uses a larger amount of diffusion ink, resulting in higher costs and relatively lower production efficiency. Additionally, the diffusion ink layer 5 in Comparative Example 2 is prone to peeling off and moisture erosion, which also leads to a decrease in the brightness, diffusion uniformity, and service life of the diffusion plate.

[0046] The glass diffusion plate of Example 1 has multiple advantages, including low ink consumption, good light diffusion effect, ink layer that is not easy to fall off, and high production efficiency.

[0047] The above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
