Abstract
A backlight module and a display device are provided. The backlight module includes a back plate, a light emitting component located on the back plate and a module frame located around periphery of the back plate. The module frame includes a main body section and a wedge shaped section on the side of main body section close to light emitting component. The inclined surface of the wedge shaped section faces the light exit surface of the light emitting component and the angle formed there between is an acute angle. The backlight module and the display device mainly utilize the design of the module frame with a wedge shaped section to facilitate the outgoing of the light rays emitted by the backlight source around its periphery in a narrow bezel design, solving the problem of peripheral pixels disappearing from side view.
