Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of backlight module technology, and in particular to a liquid crystal display backlight module. Background Technology
[0002] Backlight modules are an indispensable part of LCD display devices. They provide a uniform and stable light source to illuminate the screen and are widely used in devices such as televisions, mobile phones, and tablets. With technological advancements, backlight modules have evolved from early cold cathode fluorescent lamps to light-emitting diode (LED) light sources. Now, the focus is on high brightness, low energy consumption, and dynamic dimming capabilities, while also ensuring optimal integration with the LCD panel for a clearer and more appealing picture.
[0003] Edge-lit backlight modules and direct-lit backlight modules are two common types. Edge-lit modules place the light source on the side of the screen and use a light guide plate to spread the light evenly. This design makes the device thinner and cheaper, but the light utilization rate may not be high, and the edges are prone to darkening. Direct-lit modules place the light source directly under the screen and use a diffuser plate to distribute the light evenly. The screen brightness is more uniform, the contrast is higher, and local dimming can be used to improve the image level. However, this design makes the device thicker, more expensive, and the heat dissipation more complex. The choice between the two types depends on the size of the device, its purpose, and the budget.
[0004] In existing technologies, backlight modules often employ edge-lit light source designs to achieve thickness reduction. This involves placing a light source on one side of the module and using a light guide plate to reconstruct and diffuse the light path, achieving uniform light output to the LCD panel. However, single-sided lighting structures tend to result in poor uniformity of light intensity distribution, leading to uneven brightness in certain areas. To address this issue, the industry has developed improved solutions such as dual-sided opposing lighting and four-sided ring lighting, increasing the number of lateral light sources to improve light field uniformity. However, such multi-light source architectures require multiple independent interfaces (e.g., dual or quad interfaces) for electrical connection. While a series topology can reduce this to a single power supply interface, it introduces new reliability risks. If any light source fails, the entire backlight module must be disassembled and repaired, increasing maintenance difficulty and significantly reducing equipment maintainability and production yield.

A film layer 5 and a liquid crystal screen 2 are also fixedly installed inside the frame 1. The frame 1 serves as a structural base, with four light source units 7 symmetrically arranged on its four sides. After light enters through the side of the light guide plate 6, it undergoes total internal reflection and refraction through the internal microstructure of the light guide plate 6, converting the point light source into a surface light source for uniform emission. The frame 3 surrounds the edge of the frame 1, effectively preventing light leakage through physical sealing.

[0029] As a preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the installation detection component includes two detection holes 13 opened on the four sides of the frame 1. The two detection holes 13 are respectively opened at both ends of the sealing plate 4. Multiple detection holes 13 are opened on one side of multiple conductive plates 10. A sealing component 14 is threadedly installed inside each of the two detection holes 13. The detection head of a multimeter is inserted into the detection holes 13 at both ends of the light source unit 7 to be tested, so as to detect whether the light source unit 7 has a fault.
