Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes: a first display panel including a first liquid crystal cell; a second display panel including a second liquid crystal cell; and a bonding member that bonds the first and the second display panels together. The bonding member is made of a photocurable resin. In a section in a thickness direction of the first display panel and parallel to either a longitudinal axis direction or a latitudinal axis direction of the first display panel, a relative curing reaction rate at a central representative point of the bonding member is greater than a relative curing reaction rate at an end representative point of the bonding member. A difference between the relative curing reaction rate at the central representative point of the bonding member and the relative curing reaction rate at the end representative point of the bonding member falls within 4%.

Abstract: A backlight includes light emitting diodes; a substrate on which light emitting diodes are mounted; and a reflection sheet. The surface on which the light emitting diodes are mounted of the substrate is opposed to a rear surface of the liquid crystal display panel. The liquid crystal display panel and the substrate each have a shape in which a common width in a first direction is longer than a width in a second direction, which is orthogonal to the first direction. The width of the substrate in the second direction is shorter than the width of the liquid crystal display panel in the second direction. The substrate is opposed to, while avoiding being opposed to both end portions of the liquid crystal display panel in the second direction, a central portion between the both end portions of the liquid crystal display panel.

Abstract: In a liquid crystal display device that performs horizontal divisional-drive operation, writing of a pixel voltage to pixels in a head row in vertical scanning of each display region becomes insufficient, and a dark line is displayed when the head row is located at the screen center, deteriorating the image quality. For example, a scanning line drive circuit to drive gate lines of a lower display region sequentially outputs a scanning pulse (Pk) for selecting a (n+k)th row of an image. A video line drive circuit to drive source lines of the lower display region outputs a pixel voltage corresponding to data (Dn+k) during a period of the scanning pulse (Pk). An application start timing of the pixel voltage with respect to application of the scanning pulse (Pk) is set earlier in a (n+1)th row, a head row, during an effective scanning period (TEFF) than in the subsequent rows.

Abstract: A backlight unit has a light source area. The width of the light source area in a first direction is shorter than the width of a liquid crystal panel in the first direction. A plurality of LED modules (31) are arranged along the second direction perpendicular to the first direction. End lenses (41A, 41B) and a middle lens (42) for enlarging a light divergence angle are disposed on the plurality of LED modules (31). The direction in which the end lens (41A, 41B) enlarges the light divergence angle differs from that in which the middle lens (42) enlarges the divergence angle. This structure can reduce difference in brightness of the liquid crystal panel, while reducing the number of light sources.

Abstract: A light source section provided in a backlight unit has a smaller width in a direction perpendicular to a length direction of the light source section than a width in the same direction of the liquid crystal panel. A plurality of LED modules are arranged along the length direction of the light source section. The LED modules are respectively assigned to areas of the liquid crystal panel, which are extended in the width direction of the light source section.

A control device controls each of the plurality of light sources separately or each of groups into which the plurality of light sources are divided, separately. Accordingly, it is possible to improve a contrast of a display screen, while reducing the number of light sources.
