Abstract

A case for covering electronic parts and efficiently discharging heat generated from the electronic parts and a display apparatus including the case are provided. The case includes at least one partition wall partially separating at least an inner space of the case. An entry portion, through which air flows in, and an exit portion, through which the air having flowed in through the entry portion and then having absorbed heat from the electronic parts flows out, are formed in each plane of the case. Each plane is separated by the partition wall.

Claims (10)

1. A display apparatus, comprising:

a display panel;

a circuit board adapted to drive the display panel;

a frame adapted to support the display panel and the circuit board; and

a case adapted to cover the circuit board, the display panel and the frame, the case comprising at least one partition wall dividing an inner space of the case into a plurality of sub-inner spaces, and dividing a rear plane of the case into a plurality of sub-rear planes, wherein at least one entry portion through which air flows in, and at least one exit portion through which air flows out, are arranged in each of the sub-rear planes of the case, wherein the partition wall at least partially separates the inner space into an upper space and a lower space, the at least one partition wall being an indentation in the case, the indentation being an indent in a rear, exterior side of the case, the indentation being perforated by a plurality of apertures adapted to let hot air out from an inside of the display apparatus.

2. A display apparatus, comprising:

a display panel;

a circuit board adapted to drive the display panel;

a frame adapted to support the display panel and the circuit board; and

a case adapted to cover the circuit board, the display panel and the frame, the case comprising at least one partition wall dividing an inner space of the case into a plurality of sub-inner spaces, and dividing a rear plane of the case into a plurality of sub-rear planes, wherein at least one entry portion through which air flows in, and at least one exit portion through which air flows out, are arranged in each of the sub-rear planes of the case, wherein the partition wall at least partially separates the inner space into an upper space and a lower space, the at least one partition wall being an indentation in the case, the indentation being an indent in a rear, exterior side of the case, the indentation being perforated by a plurality of apertures adapted to let hot air out from an inside of the display apparatus, the indentation also serving as the at least one partition that is adapted to prevent substantially all hot air generated in said lower space from flowing into said upper space.
