Electro-optical device and electronic apparatus

1. An electro-optical device comprising:

an electro-optical panel;

a sound-production unit including a first surface facing toward the electro-optical panel and a second surface that is opposite the first surface and that faces away from the electro-optical panel, the sound-production unit including a piezo-electric vibrating body;

a sound-production frame that holds the sound-production unit, the sound-production frame including a flat internal surface, a through hole opening, and an air inlet that allows passage of air between the sound-production frame and the sound-production unit, the air inlet overlapping the sound-production unit in plan view;

a holding frame that holds the electro-optical panel and that is connected to the sound-production frame, the holding frame having a first surface wall facing the electro-optical panel and a second surface wall facing away from the electro-optical panel, the second surface wall also facing the flat internal surface of the sound-production frame, the second surface wall of the holding frame defining a sound-production air space with the sound-production frame, the holding frame including an internal sound-guiding path that is in fluid communication with the sound-production air space and that opens to outside of the holding frame, the holding frame including a projection that is received in the through hole opening of the sound-production frame;

a first support member that abuts the second surface of the sound production unit and the sound-production frame to be interposed between the second surface of the sound production unit and the sound-production frame; and

a second support member that abuts the flat internal surface of the sound-production frame and the second surface wall of the holding frame to be disposed between both the sound-production frame and the holding frame.

2. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the internal sound-guiding path opens at a front surface or a side surface of the holding frame.

3. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the second support member defines the sound-production air space with the holding frame and the sound-production frame.

4. The electro-optical device according to claim 3 , wherein an air space between the holding frame and the sound-production unit and an air space between the sound-production frame and the sound-production unit are separated from each other by the support member and the sound-production unit.

5. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the sound-production unit overlaps the electro-optical panel in plan view.

6. The electro-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the internal sound-guiding path opens at a position where the sound-production unit and the electro-optical panel do not overlap each other.

7. An electronic apparatus comprising:

the electro-optical device according to claim 1 ; and

a support body that supports the electro-optical device.

8. The electronic apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein an external sound-guiding path is provided between the electro-optical device and the support body so as to be connected to the internal sound-guiding path, and the external sound-guiding path opens at a surface near the electro-optical panel.

9. The electronic apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the external sound-guiding path is constituted by a sound-guiding member that is disposed between the electro-optical device and the support body.
