Abstract

A liquid crystal display device (L) according to the present invention comprises a liquid crystal display panel ( 1 ) having one or more wires on a substrate ( 1 B) thereof, and a housing having holding portions ( 120 a ) to ( 120 h ) configured to hold opposing end portions of the liquid crystal display panel, wherein a spacing (H 2 ) between a portion of an outermost wire ( 20 a ) or ( 20 i ) of the one or more wires which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion and a portion of an edge of the substrate which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion is larger than a spacing (H 1 ) between a portion of the outermost wire which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion and a portion of the edge of the substrate which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion.

Claims (11)

1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:

a liquid crystal display panel having one or more wires on a substrate thereof; and

a housing having holding portions configured to hold opposing end portions of the liquid crystal display panel,

wherein a spacing between a portion of an outermost wire of the one or more wires which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion and a portion of an edge of the substrate which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion is larger than a spacing between a portion of the outermost wire which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion and a portion of the edge of the substrate which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion, and

wherein the spacing between the portion of the outermost wire of the one or more wires which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion and the portion of the edge of the substrate which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion is not less than 2 mm and not more than 5 mm.

2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the spacing between the portion of the outermost wire which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion and the portion of the edge of the substrate which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion is less than 2 mm.

3. A liquid crystal display device comprising:

a liquid crystal display panel having one or more wires on a substrate thereof; and

a housing having holding portions configured to hold opposing end portions of the liquid crystal display panel,

wherein a spacing between a portion of an outermost wire of the one or more wires which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion and a portion of an edge of the substrate which is located in the vicinity of the holding portion is larger than a spacing between a portion of the outermost wire which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion and a portion of the edge of the substrate which is other than the portion located in the vicinity of the holding portion, and
