BACKLIGHT MODULE AND DISPLAY DEVICE

A backlight module and a display device. The backlight module includes a light source, a light guide plate, and a connection layer; the connection layer is sandwiched between the light source and the light guide plate, and is in contact with the light source and the light guide plate respectively; the connection layer is formed based on a viscous material and is configured to transmit light emitted by the light source, which can achieve the buffering effect through the viscous material of the connection layer, and the light source will not produce adverse effects even if being squeezed. Further, the gap between the light source and the light guide plate can also be filled by the connection layer, which is approximately equivalent to making the light source being closer to the light guide plate.
