Abstract

See full text

A reflecting plate in form of dual half-ellipses comprises a first ellipse having a first focal point and a second focal point, and a second ellipse having a first focal point and a second focal point. The first ellipse and the second ellipse commonly share the first focal point. A cross-section of the reflecting plate is designed in such a form that the dual half-ellipses are aligned with each other, and that contours of the first ellipse and the second ellipse are divided by a straight line, which includes the commonly shared first focal point and the other focal points. The reflecting plate encloses the line light source by the dual half-ellipses and reflects a light from the line light source toward the diffusion plate arranged above by specular reflection and by diffused reflection. As a result, uneven brightness is eliminated at the boundary of the reflecting plate designed in form of dual half-ellipses.
