Abstract

A liquid crystal display device provided with a liquid crystal display panel having a pair of transparent substrates disposed to face with each other via a liquid crystal layer, and a backlight unit disposed on a back surface of the liquid crystal display panel for radiating a backlight ray is configured to have a plate member opposite a side wall surfaces of the liquid crystal display panel and a side wall surfaces of the backlight unit. The plate member is fixed to the side wall surface of the liquid crystal display panel and the side wall surface of the backlight unit.

Claims (50)

1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:

a liquid crystal display panel including a pair of substrates;

a back light unit disposed for radiating a light to the liquid crystal display panel;

wherein

the backlight unit has a light guide plate, a light source, and a frame unit,

the light guide plate has an edge portion,

the frame unit has a wall portion which is opposed to the edge portion of the light guide plate,

one substrate of the pair of substrates has a first side surface,

the frame unit has a second side surface which is an outside surface of the wall portion and is not opposed to the edge portion of the light guide plate,

an adhesive member opposes to the first side surface and the second side surface in continuity, and attaches to the first side surface and the second side surface, and

the adhesive member extends from the first side surface to the second side surface which is outermost side surface of the backlight unit.

2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the adhesive member is attached to the first side surface and the second side surface by an adhesive surface, and

the adhesive surface is not attached to the light guide plate.

3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the other substrate of the pair of substrates has a third side surface, and

the adhesive member attaches to the third side surface.

4. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the wall portion is made of a resin, and

a Young's modulus of the adhesive member is greater than that of the wall portion.

5. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the liquid crystal display panel has a pair of polarizing plates, and

the pair of the polarizing plates is not in contact with the adhesive member.

6. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 ,

the light from the light source input into the light guide plate through the edge portion.

7. A liquid crystal display device comprising:

a liquid crystal display panel including a pair of substrates;

a back light unit disposed for radiating a light to the liquid crystal display panel;

wherein

the backlight unit has a light guide plate, a light source, and a frame unit,

the light guide plate has a main plane and a side plane,

the frame unit has a wall portion which is opposed to the side plane of the light guide plate,

one of the pair of substrates has an edge surface,

the frame unit has a wall surface which is outside surface of the wall portion and is not opposed to the side plane of the light guide plate,

an adhesive member opposes to the edge surface and the wall surface in continuity, and adheres to the edge surface and the wall surface, and

the adhesive member extends from the edge surface to the wall surface which is outermost side surface of the backlight unit.

8. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 7 ,

wherein the adhesive member is adhered to the edge surface and the wall surface by an adhesive surface, and

the adhesive surface is not attached to the light guide plate.

9. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 7 ,

wherein the other substrate of the pair of substrates has another edge surface, and

the adhesive member adheres to the another edge surface.

10. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 7 ,

wherein the wall portion is made of a resin, and

a Young's modulus of the adhesive member is greater than that of the wall portion.

11. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 7 ,

wherein the liquid crystal display panel has a pair of polarizing plates, and

the pair of the polarizing plates is not in contact with the adhesive member.

12. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 7 ,

the light from the light source input into the light guide plate through the side plane.
