Image display apparatus and image display apparatus manufacturing method
An image display apparatus includes: a display unit which includes a display panel that displays an image on a front face, and a chassis disposed on a back face of the display panel and holding the display panel; and a first frame member disposed along at least a portion of a front periphery of the display panel, wherein the first frame member includes: a front portion disposed on the front face of the display panel; and a folding portion connected to the front portion, and having an end portion which is disposed at a back face side of the chassis by being bent, the end portion being a distal end portion relative to the front portion.
1. An image display apparatus comprising:
a display which includes a display panel that displays an image on a front face, and a chassis disposed on a back face of the display panel and holding the display panel; and
a first frame member disposed along at least a portion of a front periphery of the display panel, wherein
the first frame member includes:
a front portion disposed on the front face of the display panel; and
a folding portion connected to the front portion and configured to be in a first position and a second position,
wherein the folding portion in the first position
is disposed perpendicular to the front portion,
extends towards a second frame member, and
passes through an opening on the second frame member, and
wherein the folding portion in the second position
is disposed to be parallel to the front portion, and
has an end portion of the folding portion disposed on a back face side of the chassis to secure the first frame to the display, the end portion being a distal end portion relative to the front portion.
2. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising
a second frame member which includes a back portion positioned opposite the front portion of the first frame member, with the display disposed between the back portion and the front portion, wherein
the folding portion of the first frame member is bent in a state where the folding portion passes through an attachment hole provided in the second frame member.
3. The image display apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein
the attachment hole is provided in the back portion, and
the second frame member further includes a side portion disposed further outward than the attachment hole and covers at least a portion of the folding portion.
4. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the folding portion is fastened to the chassis with a screw, in a bent state.
5. The image display apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising
a back cover covering the back face of the chassis, wherein
the back cover is fastened to the chassis with the screw, along with the folding portion.
6. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the first frame member is a ring-shaped member disposed along an entirety of the front periphery of the display panel, and includes a plurality of folding portions.
7. The image display apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein
the display panel is rectangular in front view,
the first frame member is a rectangular ring-shaped member disposed along four sides of the display panel, and
at least one of the plurality of folding portions is included in the first frame member at each of portions corresponding to the four sides.
8. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising
a back cover covering the back face of the chassis and the folding portion of the first frame member.
9. The image display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the display panel is an organic electroluminescent (EL) display panel.
10. A method for manufacturing an image display apparatus which includes: a display which includes a display panel that displays an image on a front face, and a chassis disposed on a back face of the display panel and holding the display panel; and a first frame member disposed along at least a portion of a front periphery of the display panel and including a front portion and a folding portion connected to the front portion, the folding portion configured to be in a first position and a second position, the method comprising:
disposing the front portion on the front face of the display panel; and
bending the folding portion from the first position to the second position in a direction toward a back face of the chassis, in a state where the front portion is disposed on the front face of the display panel,
wherein the folding portion in the first position
is disposed perpendicular to the front portion,
extends towards a second frame member, and
passes through an opening on the second frame member, and
wherein the folding portion in the second position
is disposed to be parallel to the front portion, and
has an end portion of the folding portion disposed on the back face side of the chassis to secure the first frame to the display, the end portion being a distal end portion relative to the front portion.
