Abstract

A display device including a display panel which comprises: a power supply board comprising a line filter. The line filter, to remove noise, comprising: a case connectable to a printed circuit board to thereby electrically connect the line filter to the printed circuit board; a magnetic core to be accommodated in the case; a core cover coupleable to the case to cover the magnetic core; a coil wound around an outside of the case and the core cover; and a separator coupleable to the case and the core cover. The separator comprises: a base; an isolating portion protruding from the base to be insertable into the case and the core cover so as to isolate a region in which the coil is wound; and a stepped portion protruding from the base and in contact with one surface of the case to separate the base from the printed circuit board.

Claims (48)

1 . A display device including a display panel, the display device comprising:

a power supply board, configured to supply power to the display device, and including a line filter,

wherein the line filter is configured to remove noise and the line filter includes:

a case, connectable to a printed circuit board to thereby allow the line filter to be electrically connected to the printed circuit board;

a magnetic core to be accommodated in the case while the case is connected to the printed circuit board;

a core cover coupleable to the case to cover the magnetic core while the magnetic core is accommodated in the case;

a coil wound around an outside of the case and the core cover; and

a separator coupleable to the case and the core cover,

wherein the separator includes:

a base;

an isolating portion protruding from the base to be insertable into the case and the core cover to thereby allow the separator to be coupled to the case and the core cover so as to isolate a region in which the coil is wound; and

a stepped portion protruding from the base and in contact with one surface of the case to separate the base from the printed circuit board,

wherein at least a portion of the case is disposed on one side of the printed circuit board, and

wherein the base is disposed spaced apart from the printed circuit board on another side opposite to the one side of the printed circuit board.

2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the case and the core cover have an annular shape,

the case includes:

a first guide rib protruding toward a hollow portion of the case to allow the separator to be inserted into the hollow portion of the case; and

the core cover includes:

a second guide rib protruding toward a hollow portion of the core cover to allow the separator to be inserted into the hollow portion of the core cover,

wherein the stepped portion is in contact with the first guide rib.

3 . The display device of claim 2 , wherein

the printed circuit board includes a hole into which at least a portion of the line filter is insertable,

wherein the base of the separator of the line filter is configured to cover the hole.

4 . The display device of claim 3 , wherein

alternate current (AC) power is applied to the power supply board through a live line and a neutral line,

wherein the region is a first region, in which the coil is wound, on a first side of the case and the core cover along a first direction, the first region being where a coil connected to the live line is wound, and

the isolating portion isolates a second region on a second side of the case and the core cover along the first direction, the second region being where a coil connected to the neutral line is wound,

wherein the isolating portion is configured to pass through the hollow portion of the case and the hollow portion of the core cover to isolate the first region and the second region from each other.

5 . The display device of claim 4 , wherein

the coil includes a first coil wound around the first region and a second coil wound around the second region,

wherein the second guide rib further protrudes in a second direction to prevent the first coil and the second coil from coming into contact with each other.

6 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the core cover includes a coupling protrusion protruding downward from an outer circumferential surface of the core cover to be coupled to an upper side of the case,

wherein the case includes a coupling groove positioned to correspond to the coupling protrusion.

7 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the printed circuit board includes a hole into which at least a portion of the line filter is insertable,

wherein the case includes a fixing guide protruding downward to be in contact with at least a portion of a surface of the printed circuit board where the hole of the printed circuit board is formed, so as to guide a fixation of the line filter based on the line filter being connected to the printed circuit board.

8 . The display device of claim 7 , wherein

the case includes:

a receiving portion having an annular shape to accommodate the magnetic core;

a connector formed on an outer circumferential surface of the receiving portion, the connector including a connection pin through which the line filter is electrically connected to the printed circuit board; and

a contact portion protruding downward from the connector to be in contact with the printed circuit board.

9 . The display device of claim 8 , wherein

the case includes an indicator protrusion protruding downward from the connector to guide a direction of the line filter along which the line filter is electrically connected to the printed circuit board.

10 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the case and the core cover are formed of different materials,

wherein the case includes a phenol-based resin to allow the case to have a heat resistance higher than a heat resistance of the core cover.
