Abstract:
A backlight unit includes LEDs, a light guide plate, and a hood-shaped reflection member. The LEDs are linearly arranged at intervals. The light guide plate includes a light entering end surface and a light exiting plate surface. The light entering end surface is at least a part of the peripheral end surfaces extending along an arrangement direction of the LEDs and opposed to light emitting surfaces of the LEDs. The hood-shaped reflection member surrounds inter-LED spaces between adjacent LEDs and includes an opening a light guide plate side. The hood-shaped reflection member includes at least a first reflection portion and a pair of second reflection portions. The first reflection portion is opposed to the light entering end surface  15 a.  The second reflection portions are separated from each other in a thickness direction of the light guide plate such that the inter-LED spaces LS are between the second reflection portions.

Claim (Index 4):
The lighting device according to  claim 1 , wherein one of the second reflection portions of the hood-shaped reflection member disposed on a light exiting plate surface side relative to the inter-light source space with respect to the thickness direction is located on a plane on which the light emitting surfaces of the light sources are located.
