技术领域technical field
本发明是有关于一种冷阴极平面灯结构(Cold Cathode FluorescentFlat Lamp,CCFFL),且特别是有关于一种可提供均匀的面光源并具有高结构强度的冷阴极平面灯结构。The present invention relates to a cold cathode flat lamp structure (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Flat Lamp, CCFFL), and in particular to a cold cathode flat lamp structure which can provide a uniform surface light source and has high structural strength.
背景技术Background technique
随著产业日益发达,行动电话、数位相机、数位摄影机、笔记本电脑、台式电脑等数位化工具无不朝向更便利、多功能且美观的方向发展。然而,行动电话、数位相机、数位摄影机、笔记本电脑、台式电脑的显示荧幕是不可或缺的人机沟通界面,透过上述产品的显示荧幕将可以为使用者的操作带来更多的便利。近年来,大部分的行动电话、数位相机、数位摄影机、笔记本电脑以及台式电脑上的显示荧幕皆以液晶显示面板(LCD panel)为主流,然而,由于液晶显示面板本身并不具有发光的功能,故在液晶显示面板下方必须提供一背光模组(back light module)以提供光源,进而达到显示的功能。With the development of the industry, digital tools such as mobile phones, digital cameras, digital video cameras, notebook computers, and desktop computers are all developing in a more convenient, multi-functional and beautiful direction. However, the display screens of mobile phones, digital cameras, digital video cameras, notebook computers, and desktop computers are indispensable human-machine communication interfaces. Through the display screens of the above products, more operations can be brought to users. convenient. In recent years, most of the display screens on mobile phones, digital cameras, digital video cameras, notebook computers and desktop computers use LCD panels as the mainstream. However, since the LCD panel itself does not have the function of emitting light Therefore, a back light module must be provided under the liquid crystal display panel to provide a light source to achieve the display function.
现有常见的背光模组主要是由一灯管、一反射罩(holder)以及一导光板(LGP)所构成。上述的导光板可将灯管所发出的线性光线转换为面光源的型态,由于灯管通常配置于导光板的侧边,故由导光板所投射的面光源均匀性较差,所以必须在导光板的光出射面上配置数层光学膜片(如扩散片、增光片等膜片),然而导光板与光学膜片价格昂贵,其导致背光模组的成本提高。此外,由于灯管、反射罩以及导光板皆是单独的构件,必须另以一胶框将上述的灯管、反射罩及导光板承载固定。故从上可得知,此种背光模组在组装上较为繁琐,组装成本亦无法更进一步地降低。The existing common backlight module is mainly composed of a light tube, a reflector (holder) and a light guide plate (LGP). The above-mentioned light guide plate can convert the linear light emitted by the lamp tube into a surface light source. Since the lamp tube is usually arranged on the side of the light guide plate, the uniformity of the surface light source projected by the light guide plate is poor. The light emitting surface of the light guide plate is equipped with several layers of optical films (eg, diffusion film, brightness enhancement film, etc. films). However, the price of the light guide plate and the optical films is high, which increases the cost of the backlight module. In addition, since the lamp tube, reflector and light guide plate are all separate components, an additional plastic frame must be used to carry and fix the above lamp tube, reflector and light guide plate. Therefore, it can be seen from the above that the assembly of this type of backlight module is relatively cumbersome, and the assembly cost cannot be further reduced.
基于上述考量,现有技术发展出一种冷阴极平面灯,由于冷阴极平面灯具有良好的发光效率与均匀性,且能够提供大面积的面光源,故冷阴极平面灯已广泛被应用于液晶显示面板的背光源以及其他应用领域上。Based on the above considerations, a cold-cathode flat lamp has been developed in the prior art. Because the cold-cathode flat lamp has good luminous efficiency and uniformity, and can provide a large-area surface light source, the cold-cathode flat lamp has been widely used in liquid crystal The backlight of the display panel and other application fields.
承上所述,冷阴极平面灯属于一种电浆发光元件,其主要是利用电子由阴极射出之后,与气体密闭腔体中阴极与阳极之间的钝气产生碰撞,并将气体离子化、激发以形成电浆。之后,电浆中被激发的激态原子会以放射紫外线的方式回到基态,而所放射的紫外线会进一步激发冷阴极平面灯中的荧光体,以产生可见光。Based on the above, the cold cathode flat lamp is a kind of plasma light-emitting element, which mainly uses the electrons emitted from the cathode to collide with the passive gas between the cathode and the anode in the gas-tight cavity, and ionize the gas, Excited to form plasma. Afterwards, the excited atoms in the plasma will return to the ground state by emitting ultraviolet rays, and the emitted ultraviolet rays will further excite the phosphors in the cold cathode flat lamp to generate visible light.
图1绘示为现有一种冷阴极平面灯的俯视示意图。图2绘示由图1的剖面线A-A所见的剖面图。请共同参照图1与图2,现有冷阴极平面灯100主要是由一板状基材110、一板状基材120、多个边条130、一荧光体140、一放电气体150以及多个电极160所构成。其中,板状基材110与板状基材120例如是玻璃或其他透明材质所制,边条130是配置于板状基材110与板状基材120之间,且与板状基材110以及板状基材120的边缘连接,以使板状基材110与板状基材120之间构成一密闭的腔体170。FIG. 1 is a schematic top view of a conventional cold cathode flat lamp. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view seen from the section line A-A of FIG. 1 . Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 together. The existing cold cathode
请继续参照图1及图2,荧光体140是配置于板状基材110与板状基材120的内壁上;放电气体150是注入于腔体180内,此放电气体例如为氙气(Xe)、氖气(Ne)、氩气(Ar)等惰性气体;而电极160配置于腔体170内,并对应于板状基材110与板状基材120的两端,且与一电源(图未示)电性连接,此电极例如为银电极或是铜电极。Please continue to refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the
承上所述,在冷阴极平面灯100的点亮过程中,主要是藉由电极160驱动,使得电极160在腔体170内部发射电子与放电气体150产生碰撞,并将放电气体150离子化、激发以形成电浆。之后,电浆中被激发的激态原子会以放射紫外线的方式回到基态,且所放射的紫外线会进一步激发板状基材110与板状基材120的内壁上的荧光体140,以产生可见光。As mentioned above, during the lighting process of the cold cathode
然而,现有的冷阴极平面灯虽可提供均匀的面光源,当要提供大面积的面光源时,仅以边条维持板状基材之间的间隙,其中央区域结构较为脆弱,容易因受不当外力而破损,故通常会将板状基材的厚度增加,此方法虽可提高整体的结构强度,但由于厚度增加将导致冷阴极平面灯的透光率下降,而降低冷阴极平面灯的亮度。However, although the existing cold-cathode flat lamp can provide a uniform surface light source, when it is necessary to provide a large-area surface light source, only the side strips are used to maintain the gap between the plate-shaped substrates. It is damaged by improper external force, so the thickness of the plate-shaped substrate is usually increased. Although this method can improve the overall structural strength, the increase in thickness will cause the light transmittance of the cold-cathode flat lamp to decrease, and reduce the cold-cathode flat lamp. brightness.
除了加厚板状基材的厚度之外,现有的冷阴极平面灯亦可在两板状基材之间加入多个间隙物(spacer),用以加强中央区域的结构强度,使得冷阴极平面灯能够承受外界的大气压力甚至其他不当之外力,但是,如此将使得冷阴极平面灯的制作更为繁琐,且提高制作的成本。In addition to thickening the thickness of the plate-shaped base material, the existing cold-cathode flat lamp can also add a plurality of spacers between the two plate-shaped base materials to strengthen the structural strength of the central area, so that the cold cathode The planar lamp can withstand external atmospheric pressure and even other improper external forces, but this will make the production of the cold-cathode planar lamp more cumbersome and increase the production cost.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
图3绘示依照本发明第一较佳实施例冷阴极平面灯的俯视示意图,图4绘示由图3的剖面线B-B所见的剖面图。请共同参照图3及图4,本实施例的冷阴极平面灯200主要是由一第一板状基材210、一第二板状基材220、一荧光体230、一放电气体240及复数个电极250所构成。其中,第一板状基材210具有多个呈矩形型态的第一凹槽212,第二板状基材220配置于第一板状基材210上,以使得这些第一凹槽212构成复数个密闭腔体214,而上述的第一板状基材210及第二板状基材220例如是玻璃或其他透明材质所制。FIG. 3 is a schematic top view of a cold-cathode planar lamp according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view seen from the section line B-B in FIG. 3 . Please refer to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 together, the cold cathode
请继续参照图3及图4,荧光体230配置于密闭腔体214的内壁上,是可配置于密闭腔体214的整个内壁上(本图所示),或可选择性地配置于密闭腔体214的部分内壁上(图未示);放电气体240注入于密闭腔体214内,此放电气体240例如为氙气(Xe)、氖气(Ne)、氩气(Ar)等惰性气体,而电极250分别配置于密闭腔体214的两端,且与一电源(图未示)电性连接,此电极250例如为镍电极、银电极铜电极、钼电极或铌电极等金属电极。Please continue to refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the
承上所述,冷阴极平面灯200的点亮过程中,主要是藉由电极250驱动,使得电极250在密闭腔体214内部发射电子与放电气体240产生碰撞,并将放电气体240离子化、激发以形成电浆。之后,电浆中被激发的激态原子会以放射紫外线的方式回到基态,且所放射的紫外线会进一步激发密闭腔体214的内壁上的荧光体230,以产生可见光。As mentioned above, during the lighting process of the cold cathode
此外,由于第一板状基材210及第二板状基材220例如是玻璃或其他透明材质所制,故由各个第一凹槽212内所产生的可见光,均可在第一板状基材210及第二板状基材220之间传导,并穿透第一板状基材210及第二板状基材220,而发出均匀性佳的面光源。另外,第一凹槽212的延伸方向是可平行于第一板状基材210的其中一边缘,或者第一凹槽212的延伸方向亦可与第一板状基材210的其中一边缘夹一角度。In addition, since the first plate-shaped
故从上可得知,本发明的第一凹槽212其形式不需加以限制,是可为直条凹槽、横条凹槽或斜条凹槽皆可。而上述所提及的电极250上更可进一步配置一阻抗装置260,例如是电阻、电容或电感,用以调整电极250的阻抗。Therefore, it can be seen from the above that the form of the
值得注意的是,由于在第一板状基材210上形成多个第一凹槽212,使得第二板状基材220可以第一板状基材210的表面作为支撑面,而配置于第一板状基材210上,如此可增强冷阴极平面灯200其中央区域的结构强度,避免冷阴极平面灯因受不当外力而破损,如此不需增加板状基材的厚度或额外配置间隙物,故成本可再降低。It is worth noting that, since a plurality of
此外,第一凹槽212的形成只需在模具上稍加设计,即可在制作板状基材的同时与板状基材一体成型,且第一凹槽212本身的空间即可注入放电气体240,故不需如同已使用的冷阴极平面灯,以边条在两板状基材之间架构出放电气体腔体,所以制程可更为简易。In addition, the formation of the
如图3所示,在第一凹槽212与第一凹槽212之间可配置一至多条连通凹槽216(图中仅绘示其一),以使第一凹槽212与第一凹槽212之间可相互连通,而连通凹槽216的宽度例如为0.1mm~10mm,且深度例如为0.1mm~5mm。此外,连通凹槽216并不非局限如图3所绘示,配置于冷阴极平面灯200的中央区域。换句话说,连通凹槽216可配置在第一凹槽212与第一凹槽212之间任何适当的位置上。藉由连通凹槽216的设计,使得平面灯冷阴极200在进行抽真空的步骤时,可一次将冷阴极平面灯200内部空气抽完,并可一次将放电气体240注入冷阴极平面灯200中,如此将可使得制程更为简易。As shown in Figure 3, one or more communicating grooves 216 (only one of them is shown in the figure) can be arranged between the
图5绘示依照本发明第二较佳实施例冷阴极平面灯的剖面图。请参阅图5,本实施例与第一较佳实施例所述的冷阴极平面灯结构大致相同,其相同处即不多作赘述,而差异处在于第二板状基材220上配置多个矩形型态的第二凹槽222,且这些第二凹槽222与第一板状基材210上的第一凹槽212相对应,而构成多个密闭腔体218。荧光体230配置于密闭腔体218的全部内壁上,当然亦可配置于部分内壁上,且放电气体240注入上述的密闭腔体218内。FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a cold-cathode planar lamp according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to Fig. 5, the structure of this embodiment is roughly the same as that of the cold cathode flat lamp described in the first preferred embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated, but the difference lies in that the second plate-shaped
值得注意的是,由于在第一板状基材210与第二板状基材220上皆配置有相对应的第一凹槽212与第二凹槽222,故在相同密闭空间的条件下,可进一步降低整个冷阴极平面灯的厚度。It should be noted that, since the first plate-shaped
图6绘示依照本发明第三较佳实施例冷阴极平面灯的俯视示意图。本实施例与第一较佳实施例所述的冷阴极平面灯结构大致相同,其相同处即不多作赘述,而差异处在于第一板状基材210上所开设的第一凹槽212由矩形型态改为弧形型态,且第一板状基材210上的接触表面是由平面接触的型态改为弧面接触的型态,而使得第一板状基材210概呈一波浪状的型态,其藉由将上述第一板状基材210上的接触表面设计为弧形型态,使得第一板状基材210具有等同于透镜(lens)的效果,而可将经过荧光体230所产生的可见光,集中朝向第二板状基材220的方向投射。FIG. 6 is a schematic top view of a cold-cathode planar lamp according to a third preferred embodiment of the present invention. The structure of this embodiment is substantially the same as that of the cold cathode flat lamp described in the first preferred embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated, but the difference lies in the
此外,第一板状基材210的底面可进一步设计为一反射表面270,例如涂布一层反光材料,而第二板状基材220的底面可进一步设计为一扩散表面280,例如是具有多个V型刻痕或多个凹点的表面,藉由上述反射表面270及扩散表面280的设计,进而增进冷阴极平面灯200的发光效率。In addition, the bottom surface of the first plate-shaped
承上所述,由于第一板状基材210上的接触表面将其宽度缩短成为弧面型态,如此可进一步增加密闭腔体214的体积,并进而提升前述抽真空及注入放电气体等步骤的效率。Based on the above, since the contact surface on the first plate-shaped

荧光体340配置于第一密闭腔体316以及第二腔体318的全部内壁或部分内壁上。放电气体350例如为氙气(Xe)、氖气(Ne)、氩气(Ar)等惰性气体,且注入于这些第一密闭腔体316以及这些第二密闭腔体318内。电极360例如为镍电极、银电极、铜电极、钼电极或铌电极等金属电极,其分别配置于这些第一密闭腔体316以及这些第二密闭腔体318的两端,且与一电源(图未示)电性连接。当然,电极360上同样可配置一阻抗装置370,例如是电阻、电容或电感,用以调整电极360的阻抗。The
承上所述,冷阴极平面灯300的点亮过程与前述的各实施例相同,主要是藉由电极360驱动,使得电极360在第一密闭腔体316及第二密闭腔体318内部发射电子与放电气体350产生碰撞,并将放电气体350离子化、激发以形成电浆。之后,电浆中被激发的激态原子会以放射紫外线的方式回到基态,且所放射的紫外线会进一步激发第一密闭腔体316及第二密闭腔体318的内壁上的荧光体340,以产生可见光。As mentioned above, the lighting process of the cold cathode
此外,波浪状结构体310上亦可如同前述的各实施例,配置一至数条连通凹槽380,以使波浪状结构体310与第一板状基材320与第二板状基材330间的各个密闭腔体连通。另外,第一板状基材320的底面亦可如同前述的各实施例,设计为一反射表面322,而第二板状基材330的底面亦可如同前述的各实施例,设计为一扩散表面332,藉由上述反射表面322及扩散表面332的设计,而同样达到增进冷阴极平面灯的发光效率的效果。In addition, the corrugated structure 310 can also be configured with one to several communicating grooves 380 as in the foregoing embodiments, so that the corrugated structure 310 and the first plate-shaped base material 320 and the second plate-shaped
承上所述,本实施例是由第一板状基材及第二板状基材夹置一波浪状结构体,而以此波浪状结构体支撑第一板状基材及第二板状基材,如此同样可达到提高冷阴极平面灯的结构强度的目的。Based on the above, in this embodiment, a wave-shaped structure is sandwiched between the first plate-shaped base material and the second plate-shaped base material, and the wave-shaped structure supports the first plate-shaped base material and the second plate-shaped base material. The base material can also achieve the purpose of improving the structural strength of the cold cathode flat lamp.
