Liquid crystal display device having a container module with a novel structure
View Patent ↗A liquid crystal display has a mold frame divided into several parts. The liquid crystal display device includes a display unit for displaying an image, a back light assembly having a light source for generating a light, a light guiding plate for guiding the light, and a light focusing portion for focusing the light, and a mold frame divided into a first frame and a second frame. The mold frame receives the display unit and the back light assembly. The first frame receives the light guiding plate and the light focusing portion and the second frame receives the light source. A reflection sheet is integrally formed at an inner surface of the second frame so as to perform the function of a lamp reflector. Accordingly, a lamp cover is not required so that the number of parts and the manufacturing cost are reduced. A lamp can be exchanged by simply separating the second frame from the mold frame, so the fault of the light source caused by the friction with other elements is reduced when exchanging the lamp.
1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
a display unit for displaying an image;
a back light assembly including:
a light source generating a light;
a light guiding plate disposed on a side of the light source; and
a light focusing element disposed on the light guiding plate; and
a mold frame comprising:
a receiving portion receiving the display unit, the light guiding plate and the light focusing element; and
sidewalls defining the receiving portion,
wherein the mold frame comprises a first frame and a second frame detachably coupled to the first frame, the second frame having a groove formed on a side thereof facing the light guiding plate for receiving the light source, and
the side of the second frame having the groove formed thereon constitutes the sidewall of the mold frame.
2. The liquid crystal display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the light source comprises:
a lamp;
a lamp supporting member inserted into both ends of the lamp; and
a connecting member electrically connected to the lamp.
3. The liquid crystal display device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a reflection plate disposed under the light guiding plate.
