PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lighting device capable of restricting a resin frame body from being removed from a reinforcing metallic plate-like member.SOLUTION: A plane light source device comprises a light guide plate, LED arranged at a side surface of the light guide plate and a frame structure 3 for holding the light guide plate and the LED. The frame structure 3 includes a metallic plate-like member 30 arranged at the back surface of the light guide plate, and a resin frame body 20 arranged at an outer edge part of the metallic plate-like member 30. The plate-like member 30 is formed with a punched hole part 31 having an opening. The punched hole part 31 has an expanded diameter part 311 with its opening diameter being increased from a surface 33 in a depth direction toward a bottom part 313 and a reduced diameter part 312 with an opening diameter being reduced from the surface 33 to the bottom part 313 in a depth direction. The expanded diameter part 311 is formed at the surface 33 and the reduced diameter part 312 is formed at the bottom part 313. The frame body 20 is fitted into the punched hole part 31 of the metallic plate-like member 30.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
