Abstract: In a planar illumination device according to an embodiment, a reflector can be stably fixed to a substrate even when a temperature change occurs. A planar illumination device includes a substrate provided with a plurality of light sources at one surface side, a reflector provided at the one surface side of the substrate, a bottom frame provided at a surface side of the substrate opposite to the one surface side, a first fixing member configured to fix a center portion of the reflector in a longitudinal direction to the bottom frame, and a second fixing member configured to fix the one surface of the substrate and the reflector. A force of the second fixing member restricting the substrate and the reflector is greater at a center portion of the reflector 4 in the longitudinal direction than at a portion of the reflector 4 separated in the longitudinal direction from the center portion.

Abstract: A planar lighting device includes: a plurality of point light sources; a circuit board provided with the point light sources; a light guide plate including an end surface along which the point light sources are disposed in a facing manner and a surface to which a portion of a front end of the circuit board is fixed; and a fixing member that fixes the circuit board to the light guide plate. The fixing member includes: a plurality of small-piece double-sided adhesive members; and a single-sided adhesive member that integrates the plurality of small-piece double-sided adhesive members.

Abstract: A planar lighting device includes: a light guide plate; a plurality of light sources arranged in line along a longitudinal direction of a side end surface of the light guide plate, each of light sources including a pair of electrode terminals; and a mounting substrate on which the light sources are mounted, the mounting substrate including a conductive pattern including a plurality of pairs of lands to which the respective pairs of electrode terminals of the light sources are connected. The light sources are mounted such that, in a longitudinal direction of the light sources, a gap between an outer side of each of the pairs of electrode terminals and an outer side of corresponding one of the pairs of lands is smaller than a gap between an inner side of the pair of electrode terminals and an inner side of the corresponding pair of lands.

Abstract: A planar illumination device according to an embodiment, including: a light guiding plate having one of a pair of opposite principal surfaces serving as a light emission surface; a light source arranged at a side surface connecting end edges of the pair of principal surfaces of the light guiding plate; and a frame, in which the light guiding plate is arranged.
