Backlight assembly and method of assembling the same

摘要

A backlight assembly and a method of assembling the backlight assembly that includes a plurality of lamps (210) having first (213) and second electrodes, a receiving container and a lamp ground member (300). The receiving container has a bottom plate over which the lamps are disposed, and a side wall extending from the bottom plate to form a receiving space. The lamp ground member includes a ground plate (310) grounded to the bottom plate, and a plurality of electrode ground portions (320) protruded from the ground plate and making contact with the first electrode thereby eliminating the need for a separate part for grounding the first electrode of the lamp and permitting easier assembly of the backlight assembly.
