发明名称 Enclosure with integrated backlight for an LCD display
摘要 Apparatuses and methods are provided for housing electrical components (312) of an electronic device in an enclosure (300) with an integrated backlight for a liquid crystal display (LCD) of the electronic device. An enclosure comprises a back plate (306), with a plurality of light sources (308) coupled to the back plate. The light sources provide back light for the LCD. The enclosure also comprises a plurality of spacers (310) which are coupled to a diffuser (304) of the LCD. Each spacer is adapted to optically couple to a corresponding light source to transmit light from the light source to the diffuser. The spacers are also adapted to secure electrical components in place between multiple spacers. Thus, non-display electrical components (1202) and display components may be housed within a single enclosure, which results in a significantly thinner device than prior art devices utilizing compartmentalized LCD displays.
