Display device with a bottom chassis

1. A display device, comprising:

a display panel;

at least one optical sheet under the display panel;

a light guide plate on the at least one optical sheet;

a bottom chassis having a side surface part on which the display panel is seated, and an inner side part having at least one step from the side surface part, the at least one optical sheet and the light guide plate being in the inner side part, the bottom chassis including a metal frame;

a projecting part extending from an outer side of the side surface part; and

light emitting diodes on a light emitting diode substrate, the light emitting diode substrate being in the inner side part of the bottom chassis, wherein:

a first portion of the projecting part extends at a substantially right angle from the side surface part, a side surface of the display panel overlaps the first portion of the projecting part, and

a second portion of the projecting part is bent back toward the outer side of the side surface part, the side surface of the display panel overlaps the second portion of the projecting part.

2. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a portion of the display panel that overlaps the side surface part is fixed to the side surface part by an adhesive material.

3. The display device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the adhesive material is an adhesive tape that is coupled with the display panel and the side surface part.

4. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , further including a reflector between the inner side part and the light guide plate.

5. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , further including a top chassis on the display panel, the top chassis being fixed to the bottom chassis.

6. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the light guide plate includes:

first holes adapted to accommodate light emitting diodes; and

second holes adapted to accommodate components of a flexible printed circuit.

7. The display device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the bottom chassis includes

an opening part over the first holes and the second holes.

8. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

an outer side of the light guide plate has at least one step part proceeding from the outer side to an inner side of the light guide plate, and

at least one optical sheet is seated on at least one step part.

9. The display device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the step parts are opposite to each other on two sides of the light guide plate.

10. The display device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the step parts are on all side surfaces of the light guide plate in a quadrangular form.

11. The display device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a portion of the display panel that overlaps the side surface part is fixed to the side surface part by an adhesive material.

12. The display device as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the adhesive material is an adhesive tape that is coupled with the display panel and the side surface part.

13. The display device as claimed in claim 8 , further including a reflector between the inner side part and the light guide plate.

14. The display device as claimed in claim 8 , further including a top chassis on the display panel, the top chassis being fixed to the bottom chassis.

15. The display device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the light guide plate includes:

first holes adapted to accommodate light emitting diodes; and

second holes adapted to accommodate components of a flexible printed circuit.

16. The display device as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the bottom chassis includes an opening over the first holes and the second holes.

17. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the second portion of the projecting part is bent back toward the outer side of the side surface part in a first direction, and

a third portion of the projecting part is bent in a second direction, the second direction being different from the first direction, the side surface of the display panel overlapping the third portion of the projecting part, and the second portion of the projecting part being between the first and third portions of the projecting part.

18. The display device as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the second portion of the projecting part is bent back in the first direction such that the side surface of the display panel overlaps the second portion and the light guide plate in the inner side part of the bottom chassis does not overlap the second portion.

19. The display device as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the third portion of the projecting part is bent in the second direction such that the light guide plate in the inner side part of the bottom chassis does not overlap the third portion.

20. The display device as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the first direction is opposite the second direction.
