The body part is located on a side of the backplate facing the display panel, and a surface of the body part facing away from the backplate is an out-light surface. The bending part has a first end face and a second end face. The first end face is connected to the body part, the second end face is located on the side of the backplate facing away from the display panel and is an out-light surface. The light source is located on the side of the backplate facing away from the display panel and opposite to the second end face.
