Abstract

This display includes a light source portion, a first heat radiation member for radiating heat generated by the light source portion, a rear housing covering the first heat radiation member in a state in contact with the first heat radiation member, and a cover member covering a rear surface of the rear housing so that the rear surface of the rear housing is partially exposed outward. The first heat radiation member is arranged on a region corresponding to a region of the rear housing exposed outward from the cover member as viewed from the side of the rear surface.

Claims (38)

1. A display apparatus comprising:

a display;

a light source portion;

a light guide member;

a heat radiation member contacting with said light source portion; and

a housing contacting with said heat radiation member;

wherein said heat radiation member includes a first projecting portion positioned near said light source portion and contacting with a main surface of said light guide member through a reflection sheet, and a second projecting portion positioned farther than said first projecting portion with respect to said light source portion and contacting with said main surface of said light guide member, and an extending portion positioned between said first projecting portion and said second projecting portion and contacting with said housing,

a length of a portion of said extending portion contacting with said housing is longer than a length of a portion of said first projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member in a prescribed direction,

first inclined portions extending from both edges of said second projecting portion respectively, and

wherein a length of a portion of said extending portion contacting with said housing is longer than a total length of a length of a portion of said second projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member and respective lengths of said first inclined portions in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of said light source portion and parallel to said main surface of said light guide member.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

a length of said portion of said extending portion contacting with said housing is longer than a length of a portion of said second projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member in said prescribed direction.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

a length of a portion of said extending portion contacting with said housing is longer than a total length of a length of a portion of said first projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member and a length of a portion of said second projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member in said prescribed direction.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

a length of a portion of said second projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member is longer than a length of a portion of said first projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member in said prescribed direction.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

a length of a portion of said extending portion contacting with said housing is longer than a length of a portion of said first projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal direction of said light source portion and parallel to said main surface of said light guide member.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

each length of said first inclined portions extending from both edges of said second projecting portion respectively is different from each other in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal direction of said light source portion and parallel to said main surface of said light guide member.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein

each of said first inclined portions has a curved shape.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

each length of second inclined portions extending from both edges of said first projecting portion respectively is different from each other in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal direction of said light source portion and parallel to said main surface of said light guide member.

9. The display apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein

each of said second inclined portions has a curved shape.

10. The display apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein

a length of a portion of said extending portion contacting with said housing is longer than a total length of a length of a portion of said first projecting portion contacting with said main surface of said light guide member and respective lengths of said second inclined portions in a direction perpendicular to said longitudinal direction of said light source portion and parallel to said main surface of said light guide member.

11. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

each of said first projecting portion and said second projecting portion extends along a direction substantially parallel to a longitudinal direction of said light source portion.

12. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

said extending portion is positioned at substantially center in a longitudinal direction of said light source portion.

13. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

said extending portion extends in a direction substantially parallel to a longitudinal direction of said light source portion.

14. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

said heat radiation member includes a recess portion arranged between said extending portion and said main surface of said light guide member.

15. The display apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein

said recess portion has a shape tapered toward said housing.
