A light emitting device adapted for a backlight module of a liquid crystal display is disclosed. The light emitting device comprises a plurality of light emitting units and a light guiding plate having a central portion and at least one side portion. Each of the light emitting units has a luminous surface and the light guiding plate has a plurality of light incident structures. Each of the light incident structures has a light incident surface opposite to the corresponding luminous surface, and a reflective surface forming an included angle with the light incident surface. Light emitted from each of the light emitting units passes through the light incident surface, is totally reflected by the reflective surface and enters into the central portion of the light guiding plate. The mixed reflective light run into the central portion of the light guiding plate and deflects outward to a user's side.

Light emitting device having reflective surfaces extended from light incident surfaces

A light spreading device and a backlight module utilizing the same. The backlight module includes a light guide, a plurality of point lights, and a plurality of light spreading devices. The light guide includes an entrance surface. The point lights are disposed near the entrance surface. Each light spreading device, corresponding to one of the point lights, is disposed between the light guide and the corresponding point light.

Light spreading device and backlight module utilizing the same

This invention discloses a direct-type backlight unit structure, which at least comprises at least one light generation component and at least one reflection mirror. The light generation component is used to generate a light and the reflection mirror is set in a side of the light generation component, wherein the reflection mirror faces to the light generation component to form a paraboloid and the paraboloid extends till a top of the light generation component. The reflection mirror can also be set on the top of the light generation component, and faces to the light generation component to form two paraboloids from a center line of the top of the light generation component. The light generated from the light generation component, especially the upward light, can be reflected by the reflection mirror to turn toward the side direction, and finally intermix uniformly in a mixed space, and pass through a light emitting surface to form a uniform backlight.
