The light incident faces are on the same side of the light guiding members.

Abstract: Disclosed is a liquid crystal display apparatus in which a liquid crystal display module and cases are tightly combined. At least one protuberance formed on a top chassis of the liquid crystal display module combines at least one fixing portion formed on a portion of a rear case corresponding to the at least one protuberance. Also, a fixing protuberance formed on a portion of a front case is inserted into between the liquid crystal display module and the rear case, thereby preventing the liquid crystal display module from being moved. Therefore, the liquid crystal display module and the cases are tightly combined, and productivity of the liquid crystal display apparatus can increase by reducing the number of parts demanded for fabrication of the liquid crystal display module and the cases.

Abstract: A backlight assembly supplies a guided light to a display panel having a main display part on which a main image is selectively displayed, and a sub display part on which a sub image is constantly displayed. The backlight assembly includes a light source and a light guiding unit. The light source generates a light. The light guiding unit includes a light incident surface, a light exiting surface, and a corresponding surface. The light from the light source is incident into the light incident surface. The light exiting surface has a main region and a sub region, the sub region having an optical pattern increasing a luminance of the light. The guided light exits the light exiting surface. The corresponding surface corresponds to the light exiting surface. A luminance uniformity and a luminance when viewed on a plane are increased.

Abstract: A backlight assembly includes a light source, a first light guide plate and a second light guide plate, in which the amount of light output from the first light guide plate is different from the amount of light output from the second light guide plate. A light output surface of the light source has an areal size substantially equal to the sum of areal sizes of light incident surfaces of the first and second light guide plates. The light guide plates each may have a different thickness, or the position of the light source with respect to the light incident surfaces is changed to control the amount of light output from the respective light guide plates. A display device includes a first display unit displaying first images using the light from the first light guide plate and a second display unit displaying second images using the light from the second light guide plate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a liquid crystal display module having a reduced thickness thereof. A light exit surface of a light guiding plate for converting a linear light source output from the lamp in the form of planar light source is non-planarized with a plurality of convex portions having a desired height. A prism sheet for controlling a path of the light output from the light guiding plate is laid on the light guiding plate, as being opposite the plurality of convex portions. Accordingly, it is possible to uniformly control the brightness distribution of the light output from the light guiding plate without providing a separate diffusing plate between the light guiding plate and the prism sheet. In addition, since the plurality of convex portions which are formed integrally with the light guiding plate directly faces the prism sheet, adherence between the light guiding plate and the prism sheet can be prevented.
