Liquid crystal display device having a wire securing member
View Patent ↗A liquid crystal display device capable of securing the lamp wire to the mold frame is disclosed. The liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal display panel for displaying an image, a back light assembly for providing a light to the liquid crystal display panel and a mold frame receiving the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight assembly. The back light assembly includes a light supplying part including a light source for generating a light and a lamp wire for supplying an electrical current to the light supplying part. A securing portion for securing the lamp wire is formed on a side surface or a rear surface of the mold frame, shaped as a groove or a depressed portion, and the lamp wire is secured to the securing portion in such a way that securing and separation of the lamp wire is performed with ease and simplicity. A pair of securing ribs are formed on the bottom of the securing depressed portions facing each other. The lamp wire is secured in the space between a pair of the securing ribs having a width less than a diameter of the lamp wire. Accordingly, a connection failure of the soldering portion of the lamp wire due to a sway of the lamp wire is reduced and the repeated process of securing the lamp wire in manufacturing the LCD device is no longer necessary.
1. A liquid crystal display (LCD), comprising:
an LCD panel;
a backlight assembly comprising a lamp wire and a light supplying part including a light source; and,
a mold frame receiving the backlight assembly and the LCD panel and having a depressed portion formed on a surface of a rear side thereof,
wherein a securing member is formed on the depressed portion to receive and secure at least a portion of the lamp wire.
2. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the securing member comprises at least two securing ribs.
3. The LCD of claim 2 , wherein a distance between the securing ribs is less than a diameter of the lamp wire.
4. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the depressed portion has a parallelepiped shape.
5. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the depressed portion has a bottom surface, and the securing member is disposed on the bottom surface.
6. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the depressed poition is spaced apart from an end portion of a lamp by a predetermined distance.
