ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a holder structure for retaining at least one lamp and associated wire within a backlight module, which includes a main body, a reflector, and a first groove formed on an external sidewall of the main body. The main body has at least one first orienting slot for accommodating the lamp therein, and a second orienting slot for accommodating a high-voltage power wire therein. Said first groove communicates with the first and second orienting slots to divide a lateral slot wall of each of the first and second orienting slots into two opposite flexible walls which can provide flexibility required for assembly of the lamp and associated wire. Each two opposite flexible walls have two protrusions respectively formed on the outsides thereof for hooking with corresponding openings defined on the reflector, whereby the lamp and power wires are able to be firmly retained in the associated slots, respectively.
