Abstract

Disclosed herein is a display apparatus. The display apparatus includes a display panel, a display chassis configured to support the display panel, and a cover provided on a rear side of the display chassis. The cover includes a cover body configured to cover a rear surface of the display chassis, and a plurality of magnets disposed on the cover body and configured to generate an attractive force such that the cover body is attached to the rear surface of the display chassis. The cover is configured to be coupled and fixed to at least a part of peripheries of the display chassis and the cover body. With this configuration, assembly efficiency of the display apparatus may be improved.

Claims (34)

1. A display apparatus comprising:

a display panel;

a display chassis configured to support the display panel; and

a cover provided on a rear side of the display chassis, the cover comprising:

a plurality of magnets disposed on the cover and configured to generate an attractive force such that the cover is attached to a rear surface of the display chassis,

wherein the plurality of magnets are disposed on a rear side of the display chassis,

wherein the cover is configured to be coupled and fixed to at least a part of peripheries of the display chassis,

wherein the cover further comprises:

an outer cover body, and

an inner cover body disposed adjacent to the outer cover and having a magnet holder for mounting at least one of the plurality of magnets, the magnet holder being disposed between the inner cover body and the outer cover body.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of magnets are disposed inside the cover.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the cover further comprises a cover coupler provided on a side surface of the cover and configured to be coupled to a side surface of the display chassis.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the display chassis comprises:

a rear chassis configured to support a rear side of the display panel; and

a front chassis having an edge disposed along a periphery of the display panel, and

wherein the cover coupler is configured to be bent from the cover and face the edge of the front chassis.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the cover is coupled to a rear surface of the rear chassis due to the attractive force of the plurality of magnets, and

wherein the cover is fixed to the display chassis by coupling the cover coupler and the edge of the front chassis.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the display chassis further comprises a sliding holder provided on the rear surface of the display chassis, and

wherein the cover further comprises a sliding coupler provided inside the cover and fitted and coupled to the sliding holder in a first direction when being coupled with the sliding holder.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the plurality of magnets are arranged in the first direction.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a printed circuit board (PCB) provided on the rear surface of the display chassis;

a first vent hole formed in one of the cover and the display chassis and formed below the PCB; and

a second vent hole formed in one of the cover and the display chassis and formed above the PCB.

9. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the magnet holder is formed to protrude from the inner cover body toward the rear surface of the display chassis.

10. The display apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the magnet holder forms a mounting space configured to be covered by the outer cover body, and wherein the at least one of the plurality of magnets is mounted in the mounting space.

11. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the magnet holder comprises an elastic locking member configured to prevent the at least one of the plurality of magnets from being separated from the magnet holder when the at least one of the plurality of magnets is mounted in a mounting space in the magnet holder.

12. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the outer cover body includes a metal, and

wherein the inner cover body includes plastic.

13. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the cover is integrally formed with the magnet holder.

14. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the cover is fitted and coupled to the display chassis in a first direction,

wherein the plurality of magnets are arranged in the first direction, and

wherein an intensity of a magnetic force of each of the plurality of magnets varies among the plurality of magnets in the first direction.
