Abstract

A display device includes an outer frame, a transparent cover, a back cover, a display module, and a separating structure. The outer frame has a display opening, the transparent cover covers the display opening, and the back cover is opposite to the display opening. The display module is disposed inside the outer frame and has a front surface facing the transparent cover and a rear surface facing the back cover. The separating structure is connected between the back cover and the rear surface of the display module. A first space formed between at least the transparent cover, the front surface of the display module, the outer frame, the back cover, and the separating structure is an enclosed space. A second space formed between at least the rear surface of the display module, the separating structure, and the back cover is connected to an outside and surrounded by the first space.

Claims (21)

1. A display device, comprising:

an outer frame, having a display opening;

a transparent cover, connected to the outer frame and covering the display opening;

a back cover, connected to the outer frame and opposite to the display opening;

a display module, disposed inside the outer frame and having a front surface and a rear surface opposite to each other, wherein the front surface faces the transparent cover and the rear surface faces the back cover, and the transparent cover and the display module are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the display opening;

a separating structure, connected between the back cover and the rear surface of the display module and separating a first space and a second space, wherein the first space is formed at least between the transparent cover, the front surface of the display module, the outer frame, the back cover, and the separating structure, the second space is formed at least between the rear surface of the display module, the separating structure, and the back cover, the first space is an enclosed space, the second space is connected to an outside, and the first space surrounds the second space; and

a waterproof material, wherein the waterproof material is disposed between the rear surface of the display module and the separating structure.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the separating structure is a frame.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the separating structure and the back cover are integrally formed.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the back cover comprises a central portion and a surrounding portion, the central portion corresponds to the second space, and the surrounding portion surrounds the central portion and corresponds to the first space.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the rear surface of the display module comprises a central region and a surrounding region, the central region corresponds to the second space, and the surrounding region surrounds the central region and corresponds to the first space.

6. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the waterproof material is further disposed between the transparent cover and the outer frame.

7. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising at least one fan, wherein the at least one fan is disposed inside the first space and is suitable for providing a circulating airstream, the circulating airstream circulates inside the first space and passes through a gap between the transparent cover and the front surface of the display module.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one fan is disposed between the rear surface of the display module, the separating structure, the back cover, and the outer frame, and an outflow direction of the at least one fan is inclined to the rear surface of the display module to drive the circulating airstream to flow from the rear surface of the display module to the front surface of the display module.

9. The display device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one fan is disposed between the rear surface of the display module, the separating structure, the back cover, and the outer frame, and an outflow direction of the at least one fan is parallel to the rear surface of the display module to drive the circulating airstream to flow along the separating structure.

10. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the back cover has at least one air inlet and at least one air outlet, and the second space is connected to the outside via the at least one air inlet and the at least one air outlet.

11. The display device of claim 10 , further comprising at least one fan, wherein the at least one fan is disposed inside the second space and is suitable for providing a cooling airstream, the cooling airstream enters the second space from the outside via the air inlet and reaches the outside from the second space via the air outlet.

12. The display device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one fan is aligned to the at least one air inlet or the at least one air outlet.

13. The display device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one fan is misaligned to the at least one air inlet or the at least one air outlet.

14. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the back cover has at least one water outlet and the second space is connected to the outside via the at least one water outlet.

15. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising at least one electronic element, wherein the electronic element is disposed inside the first space.
