Liquid crystal display
View Patent ↗A liquid crystal display has a liquid crystal panel, a gate chip on film (COF) disposed at a side of a side surface of the liquid crystal panel, side-edge-type backlights having a light emitting diode disposed on left and right side surfaces of the liquid crystal panel, and a cover and a frame that hold the liquid crystal panel and the backlights, the frame has an opening disposed at a position corresponding to the position of the gate COF into which the gate COF is inserted, and a lid for covering the gate COF inserted in the opening is connected to the frame in such a manner that the lid is capable of being opened and closed.
1. A liquid crystal display, comprising:
a liquid crystal panel;
a gate chip on film (COF) disposed at a side of a side surface of the liquid crystal panel;
side-edge-type backlights having a light emitting diode disposed on left and right side surfaces of the liquid crystal panel; and
a cover and a frame that hold the liquid crystal panel and the backlights,
wherein the frame has an opening disposed at a position corresponding to the position of the gate COF into which the gate COF is inserted, and a lid for covering the gate COF inserted in the opening is connected to the frame in such a manner that the lid is capable of being opened and closed.
2. The liquid crystal display according to claim 1 , wherein the lid is connected to the frame via a hinge in such a manner that the lid is capable of being opened and closed.
3. The liquid crystal display according to claim 1 or claim 2 , wherein the frame has a reflecting surface on a surface that faces the cover.
4. The liquid crystal display according to claim 3 , wherein the lid and the hinge are made of a same material as the reflecting surface.
5. The liquid crystal display according to claim 2 , wherein the lid, the hinge and the frame are integrally molded.
6. The liquid crystal display according to claim 1 , wherein the lid has a reflecting surface on a surface that faces the gate COF.
7. The liquid crystal display according to claim 1 , wherein for cooperating with the cover to sandwich the frame another cover is disposed at a side of the lid that is on the side of a front surface of the liquid crystal panel.
