  • Patent number: 7758217
    Abstract: A lamp support structure is disclosed using in a backlight module. The lamp support structure comprises a base, extending downwards, and two arms. Each arm comprises an inner curved edge and an opposite outer curved edge, both extending upwards from the base to define a receiving space. Moreover, each arm comprises a top end to define an opening such that a lamp can fit into the receiving space through the opening. The lateral dimension of the opening is smaller than that of the lamp. Each arm comprises a first section, including an upper portion and a lower portion, wherein the lower portion extends upwards from the base and the lateral cross-section dimension of the first section tapers from the base toward the upper portion.
