Liquid crystal display device with perforated joint pieces attachable by screws
View Patent ↗The liquid crystal display device of the present invention is a liquid crystal display device where a light source ( 160 ) is disposed on the inner periphery of a liquid crystal module ( 100 ), which has a metal front frame ( 110 ) and a metal back cover ( 120 ), which constitute the housing of the liquid crystal module ( 100 ), and a conductive upper case ( 140 ) which is laid between a liquid crystal panel ( 130 ) and the light source ( 160 ) and has a frame having approximately the same shape as that of the front frame 110 , in which perforated joints, which are bent vertically and integrally formed on the outer end portions of the front frame, the outer end portions of the upper case ( 140 ) and the outer end portions of the back cover ( 120 ) are severally provided at positions overlapping with each other when the liquid crystal module ( 100 ) is assembled, and the joints ( 143 ) of the upper case ( 140 ) are sandwiched between the joints ( 112 ) of the front frame and the joints ( 123 ) of the back cover ( 120 ) in order to make the joints attachable to each other with the aid of screws ( 190 ) with a foot length less than the width of the front frame. A liquid crystal display device is thereby obtained according to the present invention, in which highly reliable ground connection is realized even when used in an environment subject to frequent vibration.
1. A liquid crystal display device where a light source is disposed on the inner periphery of a liquid crystal module, said device comprising:
a metal front bezel and a metal back cover, which constitute the housing of the liquid crystal module; and
a conductive shield member that is laid between a liquid crystal panel and the light source, wherein
perforated joint pieces, which are bent vertically and integrally formed on the outer end portions of the said front bezel, the outer end portions of the said shield member and the outer end portions of the said back cover are severally provided at positions overlapping with each other when the liquid crystal module is assembled, and
the perforated joint pieces of the shield member are sandwiched between the perforated joint pieces of the front bezel and the perforated joint pieces of the back cover in order to make the joint pieces attachable to each other by screws.
2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the end portions of the said front bezel and the said back cover are bent to provide side portions constituting the sides of the housing, and one of the side portions is made to serve as a perforated joint piece.
3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the said housing is a rectangular parallelepiped having substantially no convex portion.
4. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 3 , wherein the said liquid crystal display device is designed for any one of automobiles, ships and aircraft.
5. A liquid crystal display device where a light source is disposed on the inner periphery of a liquid crystal module, said device comprising:
a metal front bezel and a metal back cover, which constitute the housing of the liquid crystal module; and
a conductive shield member that is laid between a liquid crystal panel and the light source, wherein
perforated joint pieces, which are bent vertically and integrally formed on the outer end portions of the said front bezel, the outer end portions of the said shield member and the outer end portions of the said back cover are severally provided on positions overlapping with each other when the liquid crystal module is assembled,
the perforated joint pieces of the shield member are sandwiched between the perforated joint pieces of the front bezel and the perforated joint pieces of the back cover in order to make the joint pieces attachable to each other with the aid of screws,
a pedestal of a liquid crystal control circuit board is further laid between the light source and the back cover,
perforated joint pieces, which are bent vertically to the surface of the liquid crystal control circuit board are provided integrally on the outer end portions of the pedestal, and
the perforated joint pieces are also made attachable by the said screws.
6. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 5 , wherein the end portions of the said front bezel and the said back cover are bent to provide side portions constituting the sides of the housing, and
one of the side portions is made to serve as the said perforated joint piece.
7. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 5 , wherein the said housing is a rectangular parallelepiped having substantially no convex portion.
8. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 7 , wherein the said liquid crystal display device is designed for any one of automobiles, ships and aircraft.
