A side-edge backlight module, comprising:

• a backplane, two backlight sources that are arranged in the backplane to be opposite to each other, and a light guide plate that is arranged inside the backplane and between the two backlight sources, the light guide plate comprising two opposite light incidence sides and a first mounting side and a second mounting side that are located between the two light incidence sides and are opposite to each other, the two backlight sources being set to respectively correspond to the two light incidence sides, the first mounting side forming a first positioning hole and also forming a first positioning slot and a third positioning slot on opposite sides of the first positioning hole, the second mounting side forming a second positioning hole corresponding to the first positioning hole, the second mounting side forming a second positioning slot and a fourth positioning slot on opposite sides of the second positioning hole to correspond to the first positioning slot and the third positioning slot, the backplane comprising six rivet pins mounted thereon to be respectively received in the first and second positioning holes and the first, second, third, and fourth positioning slots in order to effect positioning of the light guide plate, the first and third positioning slots being each of a right-angle trapezoidal shape with a straight side thereof open and an inclined side being inclined downward in a direction toward the first positioning hole, the second and fourth positioning slots being each of a right-angle trapezoidal shape with a straight side thereof open and an inclined side being inclined downward in a direction toward the second positioning hole, the rivet pins received in the first, second, third, and fourth positioning slots respectively abutting against the inclined sides of the trapezoids;
• wherein the first mounting side forms the first positioning hole in a middle position thereof and corresponding to the first positioning hole, the second mounting side forms the second positioning hole in a middle position thereof;
• wherein the first and second positioning holes are of a rectangular shape having one side open, whereby in room temperature, the rivet pin received in the second positioning hole abuts against a bottom side of the second positioning hole, while the rivet pin received in the first positioning hole is spaced from the bottom side of the first positioning hole by a first distance to serve as a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the first and second positioning holes, the first distance being determined according to difference in thermal expansion of the light guide plate and the backplane;
• wherein in room temperature, the rivet pin received in the first positioning slot abuts against a top end of the inclined side of the trapezoid of the first positioning slot and the rivet pin received in the first positioning slot abuts against the top of the trapezoid of the first positioning slot, the rivet pin received in the first positioning slot being spaced from the bottom of the trapezoid of the first positioning slot by a second distance to serve as a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the first and third positioning slots, the second distance being determined according to difference in thermal expansion between the light guide plate and the backplane;
• and in room temperature, the rivet pin received in the third positioning slot abuts against a top end of the inclined side of the trapezoid of the third positioning slot and the rivet pin received in the third positioning slot abuts against the top of the trapezoid of the third positioning slot, the rivet pin received in the third positioning slot being spaced from the bottom of the trapezoid of the third positioning slot by a third distance to serve as a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the first and third positioning slots, the third distance being determined according to difference in thermal expansion between the light guide plate and the backplane;
• wherein in room temperature, the rivet pin received in the second positioning slot abuts against a top end of the inclined side of the trapezoid of the second positioning slot and the rivet pin received in the second positioning slot abuts against the bottom of the trapezoid of the second positioning slot, the rivet pin received in the second positioning slot being spaced from the top of the trapezoid of the second positioning slot by a fourth distance to serve as a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the second and fourth positioning slots, the fourth distance being determined according to difference in thermal expansion between the light guide plate and the backplane;
• and in room temperature, the rivet pin received in the fourth positioning slot abuts against a top end of the inclined side of the trapezoid of the fourth positioning slot and the rivet pin received in the fourth positioning slot abuts against the bottom of the trapezoid of the fourth positioning slot, the rivet pin received in the fourth positioning slot being spaced from the top of the trapezoid of the fourth positioning slot by a fifth distance to serve as a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the second and fourth positioning slots, the fifth distance being determined according to difference in thermal expansion between the light guide plate and the backplane;
• and
• wherein length of the bottom of the first positioning slot minus length of the top of the first positioning slot and further minus a sixth distance is equal to length of the bottom of the second positioning slot minus length of the top of the second positioning slot, the sixth distance being a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the first and second positioning slots;
• and length of the bottom of the third positioning slot minus length of the top of the third positioning slot and further minus a seventh distance is equal to length of the bottom of the fourth positioning slot minus length of the top of the fourth positioning slot, the seventh distance being a preserved space for expansion of the light guide plate in the direction of the third and fourth positioning slots.

A side-edge backlight module, comprising:

• a backplane, a backlight source arranged inside the backplane, and a light guide plate arranged inside the backplane and corresponding to the backlight source, the light guide plate comprising a light incidence side and a first mounting side and a second mounting side that are opposite to each other and are located at two ends of the light incidence side, the backlight source being set to correspond to the light incidence side, the first mounting side forming a first positioning hole and two first positioning slots, the second mounting side forming a second positioning hole corresponding to the first positioning hole, the second mounting side forming two second positioning slots to respectively correspond to the first positioning slots, the backplane comprising six rivet pins mounted thereon to be respectively received in the first and second positioning holes and the first and second positioning slots in order to effect positioning of the light guide plate, the first positioning slots being of a right-angle trapezoidal shape with a straight side thereof open and an inclined side being inclined downward in a direction toward the first positioning hole, the second positioning slots being of a right-angle trapezoidal shape with a straight side thereof open and an inclined side being inclined downward in a direction toward the second positioning hole, the rivet pins received in the first and second positioning slots abutting against the inclined sides of the trapezoids.
