The computer display includes a display case, a bezel, and a bezel frame in contact with the display case and the bezel, the bezel frame including at least one portion extending away from the bezel to a surface of the display case, the at least one portion defining at least a portion of a cavity.

Claims (49)

1. A computer display comprising:

a display case;

a bezel; and

a bezel frame entirely in an interior of the computer display and extending along an entire periphery of the display case and the bezel,

the bezel frame is in contact with the display case and includes at least one portion extending away from the bezel to a surface of the display case, the at least one portion having a surface in direct contact with the display case along the entire periphery of the display case, the at least one portion defining at least a portion of a cavity between the display case and the bezel,

the bezel frame has a surface in contact with the bezel along the entire periphery of the bezel.

2. The computer display of claim 1 , wherein the cavity defines a path through which a wire is routed.

3. The computer display of claim 1 , further comprising a camera module disposed in the cavity, wherein the bezel frame is configured to position and support the camera module.

4. The computer display of claim 1 , further comprising an antenna disposed in the cavity, wherein the bezel frame is configured to position and support the antenna.

5. The computer display of claim 1 , further comprising a display panel, wherein the bezel frame is configured to position and support the display panel.

6. The computer display of claim 1 , wherein the bezel is affixed to the bezel frame with an adhesive.

7. The computer display of claim 1 , wherein display case includes a cut-out on which the bezel is positioned.

8. The computer display of claim 1 , wherein the bezel includes a protrusion and the bezel frame includes a receptacle configured to receive the protrusion.

9. The computer display of claim 1 , wherein the bezel includes a protrusion and the bezel frame includes a receptacle, the protrusion and the receptacle configured to snap together to fix the bezel in a position.

10. The computer display of claim 1 , further comprising a microphone module, wherein

the bezel includes a first hole,

the bezel frame includes a pocket and a second hole such that the second hole is offset from the first hole, and

the first hole, the pocket and the second hole define a sound port into the microphone module.

11. The computer display of claim 1 , further comprising a camera module, wherein

the bezel frame includes a first portion defining a first cavity including a cable associated with the camera module, and

the bezel frame includes a second portion defining a second cavity including the camera.

12. The computer display of claim 1 , further comprising an antenna, wherein

the bezel frame includes a first portion defining a first cavity including a cable associated with the antenna, and

the bezel frame includes a second portion defining a second cavity including the antenna.

13. A computer display comprising:

a display case;

a bezel; and

a bezel frame entirely in an interior of the computer display and extending along an entire periphery of the display case and the bezel,

the bezel frame including at least one first portion substantially parallel to the bezel, the at least one first portion having a surface in contact with the bezel along the entire periphery of the bezel

the bezel frame including at least one second portion substantially perpendicular to the bezel, the at least one second portion having a surface in direct contact with the display case along the entire periphery of the display case, the at least one portion defining at least a portion of a cavity between the display case and the bezel.

14. The computer display of claim 13 , further comprising a camera module, wherein

the bezel frame includes a first portion defining a first cavity including a cable associated with the camera module, and

the bezel frame includes a second portion defining a second cavity including the camera module.

15. The computer display of claim 13 , further comprising an antenna, wherein

the bezel frame includes a first portion defining a first cavity including a cable associated with the antenna, and

the bezel frame includes a second portion defining a second cavity including the antenna.

16. The computer display of claim 13 , further comprising a microphone module, wherein

the bezel includes a first hole,

the bezel frame includes a pocket and a second hole such that the second hole is offset from the first hole, and

the first hole, the pocket and the second hole define a sound port into the microphone module.

17. The computer display of claim 13 , wherein the bezel is affixed to the bezel frame with an adhesive.

18. A method comprising,

inserting a wire beside a stanchion formed on a display case;

positioning a bezel frame on the stanchion to form a cavity between the display case and the bezel frame such that the bezel frame extends along an entire periphery of the display case and the stanchion has a surface in direct contact with the display case along the entire periphery of the display case; and

fixing a bezel to the bezel frame and the display case such that the bezel frame has a surface in contact with the bezel along the entire periphery of the bezel, wherein the bezel frame is entirely in an interior of a computer display including the display case and the bezel.

19. The method of claim 18 , further comprising:

before fixing the bezel to the bezel frame, inserting a display panel into a portion of the bezel frame, wherein fixing the bezel to the bezel frame includes covering a frame of the display panel.

20. The method of claim 18 , further comprising:

before fixing the bezel to the bezel frame, applying an adhesive to a surface of the bezel frame, wherein the bezel is affixed to the bezel frame by the adhesive.
