1. A surface lighting device for a display device, comprising:
- a light guide plate having a light incident surface;
a light reflector substantially juxtaposed with the light guide plate, the light reflector having a reflecting portion obliquely opposite to the light incident surface along a lengthwise direction of the light incident surface; and
a point light source for emitting light beams, the point light source located between one end of the light reflector and the light incident surface, the point light source having a light emitting surface located inside the light reflector;
wherein the light reflector receives the light beams emitted from the point light source, and reflects the light beams into the light incident surface of the light guide plate.

Abstract
A surface lighting device (1) includes a light guide plate (11), a point light source (14), and a light reflector (13) substantially juxtaposed with the light guide plate. The light guide plate has a light incident surface (111). The point light source is located between one end of the light reflector and the light incident surface. The light reflector comprises a reflecting portion (131) obliquely opposite to the light incident surface. The reflecting portion is adapted to receive light beams emitted from the point light source, and reflect the received light into the light incident surface of the light guide plate.
