A display device including a control module, a plastic rear cover, a display panel, a buffer element and a plastic front cover is provided. The plastic rear cover includes a plurality of supporting ribs protruded from an inner surface of the plastic rear cover. An outer surface of the plastic rear cover has a receiving portion, in which the control module is received. The display panel includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and the first surface is disposed in accordance with the inner surface of the plastic rear cover. The buffer element is leant against the second surface. The plastic front cover has a display opening used for exposing a part of the second surface, and is leant against the buffer element.

Display device

Backlight module is disclosed. The backlight module includes a first lamp, a first voltage source, a second lamp, a second voltage source, a first external electrode, and a second external electrode. Both the first and the second voltage sources have a first terminal and a second terminal. The first voltage source is used to output a first voltage signal and electrically couples to the first terminal of the first lamp. The second voltage source is used to output a second voltage signal and electrically couples to the first terminal of the second lamp. Both the first external electrode and the second external electrode have a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal of the first external electrode electrically couples to the second voltage source and the first terminal of the second external electrode electrically couples to the first voltage source, wherein the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are inverted.

Backlight module

A backlight unit with a supporter is provided. The backlight unit at least comprises a bottom cover, a lamp, a diffuser and the supporter. The bottom cover has a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface and a hole formed on the bottom cover, through the first surface to the second surface. The lamp is disposed on the first surface of the bottom cover. The diffuser is disposed over the lamp. The supporter comprises a body, a pillar and a clip. The body of the supporter is disposed on the first surface of the bottom cover, for supporting the diffuser. The pillar is abutting to the body and protruding through the hole. The clip is disposed on the second surface for clamping the pillar.

Backlight unit and supporter within

A direct type backlight module comprises a bezel, a reflection sheet, a light source, a diffusion plate, and a supporting unit. The light source is positioned between the bezel and the diffusion plate, and the reflection sheet is positioned on the upper surface of the bezel. The supporting element is fixed within the bezel to support the diffusion plate upwardly. The bezel further comprises a fixing hole and a button hole for fixing the supporting element. The supporting unit comprises a planar plate, a cone, a jammed plug, and a fixing button. The cone is positioned upon the planar plate to erect between the planar plate and diffusion plate. The top of the cone contacts with the diffusion plate. The jammed plug connects to the bottom surface of the planar plate by passing through the bezel via the fixing hole. The fixing button connects to the bottom surface of the planar plate, but distances the jammed plug by a fix distance, and inserts through the button hole of the bezel.

Direct type backlight module

A lamp holder used in a backlight module is disclosed. The lamp holder includes a supporting part, a fixing part, and U-shaped holding parts. The supporting part separates the diffusion sheet of the backlight module from the lamps by a distance. The fixing part fixes the supporting part to the back plane of the backlight module. The U-shaped holding parts are used to hold lamps and the opening width of each U-shaped holding part is substantially the same as the diameter of the lamp.
