Abstract

A display which thickness is allowed to be reduced is provided. A display includes: a display panel; and a back-face member having rigidity and provided on a back face of the display panel, the back-face member covering the back face, or the back face and other part of the display panel.

Claims (51)

1. A display device comprising:

a housing including a front glass, a metal frame and a rear plate; and

an organic electroluminescence display panel arranged in the housing,

wherein the front glass is arranged on a front face of the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein the rear plate is arranged on a back face of the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein the rear plate is made of a material that includes glass and configured to support the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein the front glass and the rear plate are adhered by an adhesion section, and

wherein the metal frame is provided to connect the front glass and the rear plate, and the metal frame includes a protrusion section in a sealing direction of the adhesion section.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the front glass is a plate-like member.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the front glass covers the front face of the organic electroluminescence display panel so as to protect a display region of the organic electroluminescence display panel.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the front glass is between about 0.5 to 3.5 mm.

5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the rear plate is a member having rigidity.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the rear plate is between about 1.0 to 3.0 mm.

7. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display device is a television device.

8. The display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the front glass covers the front face of the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein a thickness of the front glass is between about 0.5 to 3.5 mm,

wherein the rear plate covers the back face of the organic electroluminescence display panel, and

wherein a thickness of the rear plate is between about 1.0 to 3.0 mm.

9. A display device comprising:

a housing including a front-face member, a metal frame and a back-face member; and

an organic electroluminescence display panel arranged between the front-face member and the back-face member,

wherein the front-face member is arranged on a front face of the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein the back-face member is arranged on a back face of the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein the back-face member is made of a material that includes glass and configured to support the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein the front-face member and the back-face member are adhered by an adhesion section, and

wherein the metal frame connects the front-face member and the back-face member, the metal frame having a protrusion section in a sealing direction of the adhesion section.

10. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein the front-face member is a plate-like member.

11. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein the front-face member covers the front face of the organic electroluminescence display panel so as to protect a display region of the organic electroluminescence display panel.

12. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein a thickness of the front-face member is between about 0.5 to 3.5 mm.

13. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein the back-face member is a member having rigidity.

14. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein a thickness of the back-face member is between about 1.0 to 3.0 mm.

15. The display device according to claim 9 , wherein the display device is a television device.

16. The display device according to claim 9 ,

wherein the front-face member covers the front face of the organic electroluminescence display panel,

wherein a thickness of the front-face member is between about 0.5 to 3.5 mm, and

wherein a thickness of the back-face member is between about 1.0 to 3.0 mm.

17. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the rear plate is arranged spaced from the organic electroluminescence display panel.

18. The display device according to claim 17 , wherein the rear plate is coupled to the organic electroluminescence display panel by a connection member.

19. The display device according to claim 18 , wherein the connection member is of the adhesion section.

20. The display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the housing includes a side-face member, and the side-face member is provided on a side face of the organic electroluminescence display panel.

21. The display device according to claim 20 ,

wherein the side-face member extends from a rear face of the front glass to a front face of the rear plate, is adhered to the adhesion section and includes a protrusion section extending from an inside surface of the side-face member in a direction of the adhesion section.

22. The display device according to claim 20 ,

wherein the side-face member is provided to seal the adhesion section.

23. The display device according to claim 9 ,

wherein the housing includes a side-face member, and the side-face member is provided on a side face of the organic electroluminescence display panel.

24. The display device of claim 23 ,

wherein the side-face member extends from a rear face of the front-face member to a front face of the rear-face member, is adhered to the adhesion section and includes a protrusion section extending from an inside surface of the side-face member in a direction of the adhesion section.

25. The display device of claim 23 , wherein the side-face member is provided to seal the adhesion section.
