Abstract

The liquid crystal display device includes a back light assembly ( 200 ), a receiving container ( 300 ) and a liquid crystal display panel ( 400 ). The back light assembly ( 200 ) generates a first light to transform the first light into a second light having modulated optical characteristics. The receiving container ( 300 ) has sidewalls ( 310 ) and a bottom face ( 320 ). The bottom face ( 320 ) includes a combination groove ( 340 ) for fixing the liquid crystal display device to an external member. A width of a portion of the combination groove ( 340 ) is larger than a width of an entrance of the combination groove ( 340 ). The liquid crystal display panel transforms the second light into an image light. The receiving container ( 300 ) receives the liquid crystal display panel.
