Abstract

The display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes a display panel for outputting an image, a panel cover for covering a rear surface of the display panel, a first part fixed to the rear surface of the display unit, a second part rotatably coupled to the first part, the second part being closely attached to the first part or being disposed on an installation surface, a hinge connecting a lower end of the first part to a front end of the second part, a wall-mounting plate separably coupled to a bottom surface of the second part, and a fall-down prevention member separably coupled to a lower end of the display unit.

Claims (49)

1. A display apparatus comprising

a display unit comprising a display panel for outputting an images and a panel cover for covering a rear surface of the display panel;

a first part fixed to the rear surface of the display unit;

a second part rotatably coupled to the first part, the second part being closely attached to the first part or being disposed on a flat floor;

a hinge connecting a lower end of the first part to a front end of the second part;

a wall-mounting plate separably coupled to a bottom surface of the second part; and

a fall-down prevention member separably coupled to a lower end of the display unit.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when the display unit is installed on the flat floor, the bottom surface of the second part and a bottom surface of the fall-down prevention member are closely attached to the flat floor, and

wherein, when the display unit is installed on an installation wall, a top surface of the second part is closely attached to the first part.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein, when the display unit is installed on the installation wall, the fall-down prevention member is fixed on the installation wall, and the second part and the fall-down prevention member are connected to each other by the wall-mounting plate.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the fall-down prevention member comprises:

a seating groove in which the wall-mounting plate is seated; and

a hook projection protruding from the seating groove, and wherein the wall-mounting plate comprises a wall-mounting hole inserted into the hook projection.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the first part comprises a rear cover configured to cover an electronic component mounted on a back surface of the display unit, and

wherein the second part comprises an audio box accommodating a speaker.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein, when the display unit is installed on the flat floor, a rear surface of the fall-down prevention member is closely attached to a front surface of the second part, and

wherein a speaker hole is defined in a front surface of the fall-down prevention member.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising

a plurality of pem nut members protruding from the bottom surface of the second part; and

a stopper protruding from a center of the second part,

wherein the pem nut members horizontally or vertically adjacent to each other are arranged at the same distance.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a plurality of pem nut members protruding from the bottom surface of the second part; and

a stopper protruding from a center of the second part,

wherein the pem nut members horizontally or vertically adjacent to each other are arranged at the same distance.

9. The display apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the wall-mounting plate further comprises:

a coupling hole into which each of a plurality of pem nut members is inserted; and

a guide slit into which the stopper is inserted,

wherein the guide slit extends by at a predetermined length in a longitudinal direction of the wall-mounting plate.

10. The display apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the wall-mounting plate further comprises:

a coupling hole into which each of a plurality of pem nut members is inserted; and

a guide slit into which the stopper is inserted,

wherein the guide slit extends by at a predetermined length in a longitudinal direction of the wall-mounting plate.

11. The display apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the wall-mounting plate further comprises:

a coupling hole into which each of a plurality of pem nut members is inserted; and

a guide slit into which the stopper is inserted,

wherein the guide slit extends by at a predetermined length in a longitudinal direction of the wall-mounting plate.

12. The display apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein, when the display unit is installed on the wall, the wall-mounting plate moves by a length corresponding to that of the guide slit to rotate with respect to the stopper, thereby fixing a lower portion of the wall-mounting plate to the second part in a state where the wall-mounting plate is perpendicular to the second part, and wherein an upper end of the wall-mounting plate is coupled to the fall-down prevention member.

13. The display apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein, when the display unit is installed on the wall, the wall-mounting plate moves by a length corresponding to that of the guide slit to rotate with respect to the stopper, thereby fixing a lower portion of the wall-mounting plate to the second part in a state where the wall-mounting plate is perpendicular to the second part, and

wherein an upper end of the wall-mounting plate is coupled to the fall-down prevention member.

14. The display apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein, when the display unit is installed on the installation wall, the wall-mounting plate moves by a length corresponding to that of the guide slit to rotate with respect to the stopper, thereby fixing a lower portion of the wall-mounting plate to the second part in a state where the wall-mounting plate is perpendicular to the second part, and

wherein an upper end of the wall-mounting plate is coupled to the fall-down prevention member.

15. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a plurality of pem nut members protruding from the bottom surface of the second part; and

a stopper protruding from a center of the second part,

wherein the pem nut members horizontally or vertically adjacent to each other are arranged at the same distance.

16. The display apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising a shield cover configured to cover the seating groove.

17. The display apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a lower decor coupled to a lower end of the display unit, the lower decor being bent in an L-shape.

18. The display apparatus according to claim 17 , wherein the fall-down prevention member is coupled to a bottom surface of the lower decor by a coupling member.
