PLANAR LIGHT-EMITTING UNIT

摘要

　This planar light-emitting unit (100) is provided with: a plurality of planar light-emitting panels (10) arranged so as to be aligned in a planar form, the planar light-emitting panels (10) emitting light towards the viewer side; a light guide member (20) disposed facing the light-emitting surface of a plurality of adjacent planar light-emitting units (31), the light guide member (20) admitting light emitted from the planar light-emitting units (31); and a scattering member (30) provided opposite to the planar light-emitting units (31) across the light guide member (20) to scatter light passing through the light guide member (20) towards the viewer side. Each of the plurality of light-emitting units (31) has light-emitting regions (R1) emitting light, and a non-light-emitting region (R2) located to the outside of the light-emitting regions (R1) and not emitting light. Between the light guide member (20) and the scattering member (30) are formed spaces in regions corresponding in position to the light-emitting regions (R1), whereas in a region corresponding in position to the non-light-emitting region (R2), a light transmissive member (40) is provided so that the light guide member (20) and the scattering member (30) are tightly bonded together.
