Display device
View Patent ↗A display device includes a display panel, a lower frame arranged in the rear of the display panel when viewed from a viewer, and at least one printed circuit board arranged on or above a flat plane of the lower frame. In this display device, the lower frame carries plural positioning projections. They are located outside of a region, where the printed circuit board is arranged, at positions facing each other with the interposition of the region, and arise from the flat plane of the lower frame toward the printed circuit board. Distal portions of the positioning projections protrude from, and bend away from the printed circuit board arranged on or above the lower frame.

an upper frame arranged in front of the display panel when viewed from the viewer,
the supporting member and the upper frame supporting the display panel by holding the outer periphery of the display panel between them,
wherein the supporting member carries at least one positioning projection arranged on a plane facing the upper frame and protruding toward the upper frame,
the upper frame has at least one positioning opening corresponding to the at least one positioning projection of the supporting member, and
the opening edge of the upper frame around the positioning opening has an inner periphery and an outer periphery, the outer periphery extending toward the supporting member, and the inner periphery located in the vicinity of the opening edge and extending away from the supporting member.
8. The display device according to claim 7 ,
wherein a surface of the inner periphery facing the positioning projection of the supporting member is curved.
9. The display device according to claim 7 ,
wherein the at least one positioning opening of the upper frame is located in the vicinity of the bottom of the at least one positioning projection of the supporting member.
10. The display device according to claim 7 ,
wherein the outer periphery of the opening edge extends toward the supporting member longer than the inner periphery of the opening edge extends away from the supporting member.
11. The display device according to claim 7 ,
wherein the display panel is a liquid crystal display panel comprising:
a pair of substrates; and
a liquid crystal material encapsulated between the pair of substrates.
12. A display device comprising:
a display module including a display panel and a lower frame arranged in the rear of the display panel when viewed from a viewer; and
a cabinet housing the display module,
wherein the cabinet has plural positioning projections, the positioning projections located in the rear of the lower frame when viewed from the viewer, arranged on a plane facing the lower frame, and protruding toward the lower frame,
wherein the lower frame has positioning openings corresponding to the positioning projections of the cabinet, and
the vicinities of opening edges of the peripheries around the positioning openings of the lower frame bend and extend away from a plane facing the cabinet, and surfaces of the bending vicinities facing the positioning openings of the cabinet are curved.
13. The display device according to claim 12 ,
wherein the bottoms of the positioning projections of the cabinet have planar areas larger than the opening areas of the corresponding positioning openings of the lower frame.
14. A display device comprising:
a display module including a display panel and a lower frame arranged in the rear of the display panel when viewed from a viewer; and
a cabinet housing the display module,
wherein the cabinet is located in the rear of the lower frame when viewed from the viewer and has at least one positioning opening in a plane facing the lower frame,
the lower frame carries at least one positioning projection corresponding to the at least one positioning opening of the cabinet, and
the opening edge of the cabinet around the positioning opening has an inner periphery and an outer periphery, the outer periphery bending and extending toward the lower frame, and the inner periphery located in the vicinity of the opening edge and bending and extending away from the lower frame.
15. The display device according to claim 14 ,
wherein a surface of the inner periphery facing the positioning projection of the lower frame is curved.
16. The display device according to claim 14 ,
