Abstract

A panel of a plasma display apparatus includes a front substrate and a back substrate arranged in opposition to this front substrate, and an outer circumferential portion of the front substrate and an outer circumferential portion of the back substrate are adhered to each other by a sealing material. The panel is held on a front side of a chassis base portion of a chassis member. A conductive member fixed to an outer circumferential portion of the chassis member includes a first bent portion bent to a back side at a portion located inside a portion where the conductive member is fixed to the chassis member and a first extending portion extending to the back side from the first bent portion. Occurrence of a crack of the panel due to drop impact, vibration, and external force can be prevented.

Claims (13)

1. A video display apparatus comprising:

a display panel including a front substrate and a back substrate arranged in opposition to the front substrate;

a chassis member holding the display panel on a front side of the chassis member;

a casing containing the display panel and the chassis member; and

a conductive member for forming an electromagnetic shield with the casing and the chassis member, the conductive member being fixed to an outer circumferential portion of the chassis member,

wherein the conductive member includes a bent portion located inward of a portion of the conductive member fixed to the chassis member, the bent portion being bent toward a back side of the casing, and an extending portion extending to the back side of the casing from the bent portion.

2. The video display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the extending portion of the conductive member is fixed to the casing.

3. The video display apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the casing includes a front cover at a front side of the display panel and a back cover at a back side of the display panel, and

wherein the extending portion of the conductive member is fixed to the back cover of the casing.

4. The video display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the chassis member includes a reinforcement portion formed by bending the outer circumferential portion so as to extend toward the back side of the casing, and

wherein the conductive member is fixed to the reinforcement portion of the chassis member.

5. The video display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the display panel is a plasma display panel in which a discharge space is formed between the front substrate with a plurality of display electrodes arranged thereon and the back substrate with data electrodes arranged thereon that cross the display electrodes.

6. The video display apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising a drive circuit block to drive the plasma display panel arranged on a back side of the chassis member.
