OPTICAL SHEET-SUPPORTING BODY, BACKLIGHT FOR LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY USING SAME, AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY

摘要

Disclosed is an optical sheet-supporting body capable of supporting an optical sheet, which is used for displays, without using a resin plate. This optical sheet-supporting body is thin, light-weighted, and excellent in compactness and impact resistance, while being produced at lower cost. Specifically disclosed is a supporting body for an optical sheet to be fitted to a display member. The supporting body comprises a fabric made of fibers, and the fabric has a total light transmittance of not less than 25% and not more than 90%. The fabric spreads out and supports the optical sheet by the tensile force.
