Abstract
A modularized reflector is produced by integrating or laminating: a sheet metal back chassis in which a light source supporting section, a through-hole or a groove for extracting a light source electrode terminal, and a frame for supporting a light diffusing plate and an optical film are integrally formed through sheet metal working; and a light reflecting layer made of a molded product of a light reflective thermoplastic resin material formed into a shape for covering the back chassis. By producing a backlight device and a liquid crystal display using the reflector, there are provided the reflector reduced in the number of components, in the number of assembly steps, and in weight and thickness, and a back light and a liquid crystal display using the reflector.
