Abstract

A display device comprises a display device main body that includes a display, a main body support member that supports a back surface of the display device main body, a cover member that covers the main body support member so as to form a space extending from one end portion of the cover member, which is closer to the back surface than the other end portion, to the other end portion between the main body support member and the cover member and allow wiring connected to the display device main body to pass through the space, and at least one first vibration absorbing member that is provided between the main body support member and the cover member to suppress transmission of vibration between the main body support member and the cover member.

Claims (53)

1 . A display device, comprising:

a display device main body that includes a display;

a main body support member that supports a back surface of the display device main body;

a cover member that covers the main body support member so as to form a space extending from one end portion of the cover member, which is closer to the back surface than the other end portion, to the other end portion between the main body support member and the cover member and allow wiring connected to the display device main body to pass through the space; and

at least one first vibration absorbing member that is provided between the main body support member and the cover member to suppress transmission of vibration between the main body support member and the cover member.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the at least one first vibration absorbing member fixedly couples the main body support member and the cover member.

3 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the cover member is fixed to the main body support member via the at least one first vibration absorbing member in a non-contact state with respect to the main body support member.

4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the main body support member includes a pair of support portions that support the back surface of the display device main body, and at least one fitting portion that is provided between the support portions and is fitted with the at least one first vibration absorbing member.

5 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

one of the cover member and the main body support member is provided with the at least one first vibration absorbing member and the other one of the cover member and the main body support member is provided with at least one fitting portion that is fitted with the at least one first vibration absorbing member.

6 . The display device according to claim 5 , wherein

the cover member includes at least one engagement piece on the one end portion, the at least one engagement piece engaging with the back surface of the display device main body in a state of being biased against the back surface of the display device main body.

7 . The display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the at least one engagement piece of the cover member includes a plurality of engagement pieces on the one end portion, and

the at least one first vibration absorbing member includes a plurality of the first vibration absorbing members provided on the other end portion.

8 . The display device according to claim 6 , wherein

the display device main body further includes at least one engagement hole on the back surface that engages with the at least one engagement piece.

9 . the display device according to claim 8 , wherein

the at least one engagement piece includes a convex rib that contacts with an inner peripheral edge of the at least one engagement hole, and

the rib has a height such that the rib contacts with the inner peripheral edge of the at least one engagement hole while being biased in a state in which the at least one engagement piece is engaged with the at least one engagement hole.

10 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the at least one first vibration absorbing member includes a plurality of first vibration absorbing members provided on both the one end portion and the other end portion,

the main body support member is provided with a plurality of fitting portions that are fitted with the first vibration absorbing members, respectively, and

the cover member is fixed to the main body support member in a state in which the first vibration absorbing members are fitted with the fitting portions, respectively.

11 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the cover member is provided with a plurality of fitting portions on both the one end portion and the other end portion,

the at least one first vibration absorbing member includes a plurality of the first vibration absorbing members provided at positions on the main body support member corresponding to positions of the fitting portions, and

the cover member is fixed to the main body support member in a state in which the first vibration absorbing members are fitted with the fitting portions, respectively.

12 . The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising

at least one second vibration absorbing member that is provided separately from the at least one first vibration absorbing member and is disposed between the cover member and the main body support member so as to be sandwiched between the cover member and the main body support member.

13 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the cover member further includes a speaker attachment portion for attaching a speaker device that is connectable with the display device main body, and

the speaker attachment portion is configured to hold the speaker device toward an opposite side of the cover member from the main body support member.

14 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the cover member further includes a storage device attachment portion for attaching a storage device that is connectable to the display device main body, and

the storage device attachment portion is provided on a surface of the cover member facing toward the main body support member.

15 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the cover member further includes a light source attachment portion for attaching a light source that is connectable to the display device main body, and

the light source attachment portion is configured to hold the light source toward an opposite side of the cover member from the main body support member.

16 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the at least one first vibration absorbing member is independently formed as a separate member from the cover member and the main body support member.

17 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the at least one first vibration absorbing member is made of a material that is different from those of the cover member and the main body support member.

18 . The display device according to claim 17 , wherein

the at least one first vibration absorbing member is made of an elastic material.

19 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the at least one first vibration absorbing member includes an upper part with a first annular recess and a lower part with a second annular recess.

20 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

the main body support member includes a pair of support portions that extend downward as moving away from the back surface of the display device main body, and

the cover member is attached to the main body support member such that the cover member is oriented along the support portions.
