Abstract

A display apparatus is provided that includes a display panel, a plate-shaped base disposed on a rear surface side of the display panel, and a flexible wiring substrate. The display apparatus also includes a circuit substrate, an electronic component attached to at least one of the wiring substrate and the circuit substrate, and a heat conductive member attached to a rear surface of the electronic component. The display apparatus further includes a rear structural member disposed to cover the heat conductive member, and a connecting member that connects the base and the rear structural member and generates a compressive force that compresses the heat conductive member being sandwiched by the electronic component and the rear structural member.
