  • Patent number: 12135473
    Abstract: The display device includes a display panel and a backlight module on the display panel. The backlight module includes light guide plate having a light incident surface, a light emitting surface facing the display panel and a reflection surface. Two sides of the light incident surface connect the light emitting surface and the reflection surface respectively. The reflection surface includes a first periphery light guide region, a second periphery light guide region, and a middle light guide region between the first periphery light guide region and the second periphery light guide region. The first periphery light guide region includes first microstructures. The second periphery light guide region includes second microstructures. The first microstructures have first light guide inclined surfaces inclined towards the second periphery light guide region. The second microstructures have second light guide inclined surfaces inclined towards the first periphery light guide region.

  • Patent number: 11988920
    Abstract: A direct-lit backlight module includes a substrate, an optical layer that forms an accommodating space with the substrate, first light emitting units in the accommodating space, second light emitting units in the accommodating space and a control unit electrically connected to the first light emitting units and the second light emitting units. The first light emitting units emit light towards the optical layer and have a first viewing angle. The second light emitting units emit light towards the optical layer and have a second viewing angle. The control unit provides a control signal to selectively drive the first light emitting units and the second light emitting units. The first light emitting units are adjacent to the second light emitting units. The first light emitting units and the second light emitting units are arranged alternately. The first viewing angle is larger than the second viewing angle.
