Liquid crystal display module having a top frame with curved corners and at least one side surface that is folded back and against itself to provide a double-layered thickness
A liquid crystal display module includes a bottom frame having a bottom surface and first to fourth side surfaces; a backlight unit disposed on the bottom surface of the bottom frame; a liquid crystal panel over the backlight unit; a main frame surrounding a side of the backlight unit and a side of the liquid crystal panel; and a top frame surrounding an edge of the liquid crystal panel and having a top surface and first to fourth side surfaces, wherein each of corners of the first to fourth side surfaces of the top frame has a curved shape, and wherein the first side surface of the top frame has a double-layered structure and the top surface has a single-layered structure such that the first side surface has a thickness twice that of the top surface.
1. A liquid crystal display module, comprising:
a bottom frame having a bottom surface and first to fourth side surfaces;
a backlight unit disposed on the bottom surface of the bottom frame;
a liquid crystal panel over the backlight unit;
a main frame surrounding a side of the backlight unit and a side of the liquid crystal panel; and
a top frame surrounding an edge of the liquid crystal panel and having a top surface and first to fourth side surfaces,
wherein each of corners of the first to fourth side surfaces of the top frame has a curved shape, and wherein the first side surface of the top frame is folded back and against itself so as to have a double-layered structure and the top surface has a single-layered structure such that the first side surface has a thickness twice that of the top surface.
2. The liquid crystal display module according to claim 1 , wherein an end portion of the first side surface of the top frame is outwardly bent such that the end portion is completely folded on the other portion of the first side surface of the top frame.
3. The liquid crystal display module according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of the corners is removed to form a chamfer.
4. The liquid crystal display module according to claim 1 , further comprising a printed circuit board connected to one end portion of the liquid crystal panel, wherein a printed circuit board exit portion is formed at the first side surface of the top frame.
