Diffuser plate supporter, backlight unit, and electronic device

A diffuser plate supporter comprising:

• a transparent support portion having a protruding shape;
• an opaque base connected to a lower end of the transparent support portion and having an area wider than an area of the lower end of the transparent support portion;
• and
• an opaque fastening portion extended from a bottom surface of the opaque base,
• wherein the transparent connection portion is connected to first and second corresponding side surfaces of the opaque base, and
• wherein the first connection portion extends to a first direction and connected to the first side surface of the opaque base and encloses a periphery of the first side surface of the opaque base, and the second connection portion extends in a second direction different from the first direction connected to the second side surface of the opaque base and encloses a periphery of the second side surface of the opaque base.

A backlight unit comprising:

• a diffuser plate supporter including,
• a transparent support portion having a protruding shape,
• a transparent connection portion extending to a horizontal direction from a lower end portion of the transparent support portion and bent to a vertical direction,
• an opaque base having first and second side surfaces and a bottom surface, at least a portion of the first and second side surfaces connected to an end of the connection portion, and
• an opaque fastening portion protruding from the bottom surface of the base;
• a diffuser plate having a bottom surface supported by the diffuser plate supporter;
• and
• a cover bottom accommodating the diffuser plate, the diffuser plate supporter being fastened to the cover bottom,
• wherein the transparent connection portion is connected to first and second corresponding side surfaces of the opaque base, and
• wherein the first connection portion extends to a first direction and connected to the first side surface of the opaque base and encloses a periphery of the first side surface of the opaque base, and the second connection portion extends in a second direction different from the first direction connected to the second side surface of the opaque base and encloses a periphery of the second side surface of the opaque base.
