Claims (43)

1. An on-vehicle display device comprising:

a display unit that includes a display cell and a cell support member supporting the display cell; and

a fixed panel that supports the display unit and is configured to be installed on a vehicle body,

wherein the display unit is provided with a translucent display cover plate positioned on a front side, which is a display side of the display cell,

the display cover plate has an overhang that overhangs from a display area of the display cell, and

a bracket to be fixed to the fixed panel at a first location on the bracket is provided such that the overhang is not fixed to the fixed panel but a back side of the overhang is supported by the bracket at a second location on the bracket that is offset from the first location on the bracket.

2. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 1 , wherein

which is a part of the cell support member, and the back side of the cover support portion is attached to the bracket.

3. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the back side of the overhang is directly attached to the bracket.

4. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the fixed panel is made of a synthetic resin material and has an opening in which the display unit is accommodated.

5. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 4 , wherein

the bracket is made of a metal plate.

6. The on-vehicle device according to claim 2 , wherein

the cover support portion comprises a synthetic resin material.

7. The on-vehicle device according to claim 6 , wherein

the overhang is attached to the cover support portion using adhesive tape.

8. The on-vehicle device according to claim 2 , wherein

a location at which the overhang is attached to the cover support portion is offset from a location at which the cover support portion is attached to the bracket.

9. The on-vehicle device according to claim 1 , wherein

the overhang of the display cover plate overhangs laterally from the display area of the display cell.

10. An on-vehicle display device comprising:

a display unit that includes a display cell and a cell support member supporting the display cell; and

a fixed panel that supports the display unit and is configured to be installed on a vehicle body,

wherein the display unit is provided with a touch panel positioned on a front side, which is a display side of the display cell, and the cell support member is fixed to a back side of at least one of the display cell and the touch panel; and

wherein a location at which the at least one of the display cell and the touch panel is attached to the cell support member is offset from a location at which the cell support member is attached to the fixed panel.

11. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 10 , wherein

the display unit is further provided with a translucent display cover plate positioned on a front side of the touch panel,

the display cover plate has an overhang that overhangs from a display area of the display cell, and

a bracket to be fixed to the fixed panel is provided such that the overhang is not fixed to the fixed panel but a back side of the overhang is supported by the bracket.

12. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 11 , wherein

the back side of the overhang is attached to the bracket using an adhesion layer.

13. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 10 , wherein

the fixed panel is made of a synthetic resin material and has an opening in which the display unit is accommodated.

14. The on-vehicle display device according to claim 11 , wherein

the bracket is made of a metal plate.

15. The on-vehicle device according to claim 10 , wherein

the cell support member is made of a metal plate.

16. The on-vehicle device according to claim 10 , wherein

the at least one of the display cell and the touch panel is attached to the cell support member using an adhesion layer.

17. The on-vehicle device according to claim 11 , wherein

the overhang of the display cover plate overhangs laterally from the display area of the display cell.
