Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (“LCD”) module includes a backlight assembly emitting light, a LCD panel overlapping the backlight assembly, and an upper cover. The backlight includes a light source module emitting the light, a light guide plate (“LGP”) including edges and a middle portion, and a LGP support overlapping the edges of the LGP. The LGP support includes a plurality of LGP supporting pieces connected to each other so as to form a polygonal shape, each of the LGP supporting pieces including a LGP supporting portion including a LGP supporting surface overlapping the edges of the LGP, and the LGP supporting surfaces of each of the LGP supporting pieces of the LGP support are placed on a same plane. Opposing LGP supporting pieces are interconnected by an LCD module mounting member.
Abstract:
Provided are a backlight assembly with improved heat dissipation, and a liquid crystal display (LCD) having such a backlight assembly. The backlight assembly includes: a light guide plate; a light source unit disposed on a side of the light guide plate; an intermediate housing covering an upper surface of the light source unit; and a lower housing coupled to the intermediate housing to accommodate the light guide plate and the light source unit, wherein the lower housing includes: a light source unit-fixing frame to which the light source unit is fixed, the light source unit-fixing frame contacting an inner surface of the intermediate housing; and a body portion disposed under the light guide plate and coupled to the light source unit-fixing frame.
Abstract:
Provided is a liquid crystal display (LCD) with improved heat dissipation and reduced thickness. The LCD includes for an embodiment: a lower housing; a heat-dissipating member which is disposed in the lower housing; a plurality of point light sources which are disposed on the heat-dissipating member; a plurality of electric wires which supply power to the point light sources; and a light guide plate (LGP) which is disposed in the lower housing in such a way that side surfaces of the LGP face the point light sources.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a light source part disposed under the display panel configured to supply light to the display panel, and a receiving container. The receiving container is configured to receive the display panel and the light source part. The receiving container includes a bottom portion and a first side wall extending from a first side of the bottom portion along a direction substantially perpendicular to the bottom portion. A first protrusion is formed inside of the first side wall. The first protrusion is disposed between a lower surface of the display panel adjacent to the first side of the display panel and an upper surface of the light source part. The receiving container includes metal.
