Abstract:
A connecting unit includes a support seat that has inner and outer surfaces, that is formed with an L-shaped channel, and that is provided with a slit. The L-shaped channel is defined by the inner surface, has first and second open ends, receives an end portion of an electrical wire therein through the first open end, and receives an end portion of a fluorescent tube therein through the second open end. The slit extends from the outer surface to the inner surface and from the first open end to the second open end to thereby permit access into the L-shaped channel.
Abstract:
A connector, which serves to establish an electrical connection between a wire and a fluorescent tube of a backlight module, includes first and second clamping parts. The backlight module includes a support seat that supports the fluorescent tube and that is formed with a channel. The wire has an exposed conductor at an end portion thereof that extends into the channel. The fluorescent tube has an end portion that extends into the channel, and a pin that extends outwardly from the end portion of the fluorescent tube. The connector is disposed in the channel. The first clamping part clamps the exposed conductor of the wire. The second clamping part extends from the first clamping part and clamps the pin of the fluorescent tube.
Abstract:
A case for a backlight module includes a housing body which receives a light source. A protective layer is coated on an inner surface of the housing body to absorb and filter out UV rays contained in the light emitted from the light source. The protective layer includes a resinous matrix material incorporating a UV/light stabilizer. The housing body may be made of a plastic material which contains a white light-reflecting agent.

Abstract:
A case for a backlight module includes a housing body which receives a light source and has an opening directed toward a liquid crystal panel. A reflection layer is provided on a surface of the housing body to reflect the light emitted from the light source. The reflection layer has high weather-resistance and includes a resinous matrix material incorporating a UV/light stabilizer and a light-reflecting agent.
