Abstract

A display device includes a plate-shaped display unit; a mounting unit disposed on a back surface side of the display unit, a direction normal to a back surface of the display unit being a thickness direction of the mounting unit; an erect portion that erects towards the back surface side of the display unit along a lateral side of the mounting unit, the erect portion protruding towards a display unit side in a greater manner than the mounting unit; and a plate material that opposes the back surface of the display unit and that is interposed between the display unit and the erect portion.

Claims (51)

1. A display device comprising:

an upper cover;

a plate-shaped display;

a battery disposed on a back surface side of the display, the battery includes a plurality of battery cells that align in a direction in which the display extends;

a wall that includes a cutaway section and the wall extends towards the back surface side of the display along a lateral side of the battery, the wall protruding towards the back surface side of the display in a distance greater than a planar thickness of the battery when the battery is housed in the cutaway section;

a radiator plate that extends along a surface of the battery facing the display so as to cover the battery and the cutaway section when the battery is housed in the cutaway section, opposes the back surface side of the display, and that is interposed between the display and the wall;

a pair of heat pipes connected to the radiator plate, each of the pair of heat pipes including a first end thermally connected to a heating element; and

a lower cover located below the battery,

wherein the plurality of battery cells includes a first battery cell that is disposed in a middle of the plurality of battery cells, and a pair of second battery cells disposed on both sides of the first battery cell,

wherein one of the pair of heat pipes is disposed across the first battery cell and one of the pair of second battery cells, and

wherein other one of the pair of heat pipes is disposed across the first battery cell and other one of the pair of second battery cells.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a support portion that supports the back surface side of the display,

wherein an opening that accommodates the radiator plate is formed in the support portion.

3. A display device comprising:

an upper cover;

a plate-shaped display;

a battery disposed on a back surface side of the display, the battery includes a plurality of battery cells that align in a direction in which the display extends;

a wall that includes a cutaway section and the wall extends towards the back surface side of the display along a lateral side of the battery, the wall protruding towards the back surface side of the display in a distance greater than a planar thickness of the battery when the battery is housed in the cutaway section;

a radiator plate that extends along a surface of the battery facing the display so as to cover the battery and the cutaway section when the battery is housed in the cutaway section, opposes the back surface side of the display, and that is interposed between the display and the wall;

a heat pipe connected to the radiator plate, the heat pipe including a first end thermally connected to a heating element; and

a lower cover located below the battery,

wherein an effective surface area of the radiator plate decreases while extending from one end side towards other end side of the heat pipe,

wherein the radiator plate has a quadrilateral shape in plan view that includes a pair of first edge portions that extend in the direction in which the plurality of battery cells are aligned, and a pair of second edge portions that connect the pair of first edge portions to each other,

wherein the heat pipe extends in a direction in which the plurality of battery cells are aligned and along one of the pair of first edge portions,

wherein the first end of the heat pipe protrudes from one of the pair of second edge portions,

wherein a plurality of openings are formed in the radiator plate, the plurality of openings being aligned along other one of the pair of first edge portions, and

wherein opening areas of the plurality of openings increase as the plurality of openings extend from a side on one of the pair of second edge portions towards a side on other one of the pair of second edge portions.

4. The display device according to claim 3 ,

wherein the heat pipe extends in a longitudinal direction of the wall and overlaps the cutaway section in the longitudinal direction of the wall.

5. A display device comprising:

a plate-shaped display;

a battery disposed on a back surface side of the display, the battery including a plurality of battery cells that align in a direction in which the display extends;

a wall that extends towards the back surface side of the display along a lateral side of the battery, the wall protruding towards the back surface side of the display in a distance greater than a planar thickness of the battery;

a radiator plate that extends along a surface of the battery facing the display, opposes the back surface side of the display, and that is interposed between the display and the wall; and

a heat pipe connected to the radiator plate, the heat pipe including a first end thermally connected to a heating element and a second end comprising a plurality of branch portions disposed between the plurality of battery cells.

6. The display device according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a first thermal diffusion sheet that is adhered to a first surface of the battery and that is thermally connected to the heating element; and

a second thermal diffusion sheet that is adhered to a second surface of the battery, opposite to the first surface, and that is thermally connected to the heating element.

7. The display device according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a support portion that supports the back surface side of the display,

wherein an opening that accommodates the radiator plate is formed in the support portion.

8. A display device comprising:

a plate-shaped display;

a battery disposed on a back surface side of the display, the battery including a plurality of battery cells that align in a direction in which the display extends;

a wall that extends towards the back surface side of the display along a lateral side of the battery, the wall protruding towards the back surface side of the display in a distance greater than a planar thickness of the battery;

a radiator plate that extends along a surface of the battery facing the display, opposes the back surface side of the display, and that is interposed between the display and the wall; and

a heat pipe connected to the radiator plate,

wherein the battery includes a battery cell and a control board that is disposed laterally with respect to the battery cell,

wherein a thickness of the control board is smaller than a thickness of the battery cell so as to form a step above the control board in a thickness direction of the control board, and

wherein the heat pipe is provided in the step.
