4 to 48 are views for explaining the display device according to the present invention in detail.

First, referring to FIG. 4, an adhesive layer 400 may be formed between the rear surface of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100 and the bracket 140. The bracket 140 may be attached to the rear surface of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100 by the adhesive layer 400.

As such, when the bracket 140 is attached to the rear surface of the rear substrate 111 using the adhesive layer 400, support means such as a pemnut, a boss, and fastening means such as a screw may not be used. Since it is not necessary, the fixing can be simplified, the manufacturing cost can be reduced, and the thickness of the display device can be reduced.

In order to improve adhesion between the bracket 140 and the rear substrate 111, a groove 141 is formed on one surface of the bracket 140 facing the rear substrate 111, and an adhesive layer 400 is formed on the groove 141. It may be desirable. As such, the groove 141 formed in the bracket 140 to form the adhesive layer 400 may be referred to as a first groove.

In this case, the adhesive material can be prevented from leaking to the outside of the bracket 140, thereby facilitating the process.

Referring to FIG. 8, the second groove 700 may be formed in a hook shape to improve the coupling force between the optical layer 110 and the bracket 140. In this case, a protrusion 111 corresponding to the second groove 700 may be formed in the optical layer 110, and the optical layer 110 may be bracketed by inserting the protrusion 111 into the second groove 700. It is possible to fix to 140.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 9, the protrusions 900 are formed in the bracket 140, the holes 112 are formed in the optical layer 110, and the protrusions 900 of the bracket 140 are formed in the optical layer. The optical layer 110 may be fixed to the bracket 140 by passing through the hole 112 of the 110.

Alternatively, a guide portion 113 through which the hole 112 and the protrusion 900 of the bracket 140 may pass may be formed in the optical layer 110. In this case, the protrusion 900 of the bracket 140 may be positioned in the hole 112 by passing through the guide 113.

Referring to FIG. 11, a back light unit 120 may be disposed behind the optical layer 110.

The backlight unit 120 may be attached to the rear surface of the optical layer 110 as in the case of FIG. 12. For this purpose, although not shown, it is also possible to form an adhesive layer between the optical layer 110 and the backlight unit 120.

In this case, when the viewer looks at the display panel 100 from the front of the display panel 100, the observer can observe most of the region of the display panel 100, and thus can be beautiful in appearance. In addition, since another edge may not be seen on the side of the display panel 100, a visual effect that the screen area becomes larger may be obtained.

In this case, an edge of the front surface of the front substrate 101 and an edge of the side surface of the front substrate 101 may be exposed at the upper side ① and the lower side ② of the display panel 100, respectively.

In addition, referring to FIG. 15A, it can be seen that the optical layer 110 is disposed on the inner side IA of the bracket 140.

A blocking member 1500 may be disposed at an edge of the front surface of the front substrate 101.

That is, almost all parts of the blocking portion 1500 can be observed.

On the other hand, since the bracket 140 does not display an image, the bracket 140 may be disposed in a dummy area outside the screen area. In addition, the bracket 140 may be preferably covered by the blocking unit 1500. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 15A, the blocking unit 1500 may preferably overlap the bracket 140. Preferably, the bracket 140 is fully overlapped with the blocking unit 1500, and more preferably, the widths W10 and W20 of the blocking unit 1500 are the widths of the brackets 140 ( Greater than W11, W12). In this case, the blocking unit 1500 may include portions P1 and P2 extending further in the center direction of the front substrate 101 than the bracket 140, and the blocking unit 1500 may include the bracket 140. It is possible to include the portions (W1, W2) further extending in the outward direction of the front substrate 101.

It may be fixed to the seating portion 1700 of the bracket 140 through the fastening hole 1610. Accordingly, the frame 1600 may be fixed to the bracket 140.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 18, the backlight unit 120 and the optical layer 110 may be in close contact with each other.

Alternatively, unlike the case of FIG. 18, the backlight unit 120 and the optical layer 110 may be spaced apart from each other.

In addition, when the frame 1600 is disposed behind the backlight unit 120, the back cover 130 may be omitted.

Alternatively, when the frame 1600 is disposed behind the backlight unit 120, the size of the back cover 130 may be reduced.

As shown in FIG. 19, the back cover 130 is disposed on a portion of the rear surface of the frame 1600, and the driving signal is supplied to the display panel 100 between the back cover 130 and the frame 1600. The driving board 1900 may be disposed.

In this case, the width L2 of the back cover 130 may be smaller than the width L3 of the frame 1600. In addition, the width of the display panel 100, for example, the width L1 of the front substrate 101 may be greater than the width L3 of the back cover 130 and the width L2 of the frame 1600.

Referring to FIG. 20, the bracket 140 may extend to the side of the display panel 100. Accordingly, the bracket 140 may include a portion 142 positioned on the side of the display panel 100. For example, the bracket 140 extends to the side of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100 so that the bracket 140 may include a portion located on the side of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100. Alternatively, the bracket 140 extends to the side of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100 so that the bracket 140 is disposed on the side of the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100. It may include a part located. In FIG. 20, D20 may indicate a direction in which the bracket 140 extends.

In this case, the front edge of the front substrate 101 may be exposed. In addition, the edge of the side of the front substrate 101 may not be exposed. Accordingly, the edge of the side surface of the front substrate 101 can be effectively protected from external impact.

As shown in FIG. 20, the edge of the side of the front substrate 101 is covered by the bracket 140 when the viewer looks at the front of the front substrate 101 from the side of the display panel 100.

A portion 142 and a portion 143 positioned in front of the front substrate 101 may be included in FIG. 21A, D10 and D11 may indicate a direction in which the bracket 140 extends.

In this case, a part of the front edge of the front substrate 101 may be covered by the bracket 140, but almost all of the front surface of the front substrate 101 may still be exposed.

In addition, even when the bracket 140 covers a part of the front edge of the front substrate 101, it may not cover all the edges of the front surface of the front substrate 101. For example, as shown in FIG. 21B, the bracket 140 may cover a part of the edge at the first long side LS1 and the second long side LS2 of the front substrate 101, but the front substrate 101 may be partially covered by the front substrate 101. The edge may still be exposed at the first short side SS1 and the second short side SS2 of the side.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 21C, the bracket 140 may cover a part of the edge at the first short side SS1 and the second short side SS2 of the front substrate 101, but the first substrate side of the front substrate 101 may be formed. The edges may still be exposed at the first long side LS1 and the second long side LS2.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 21D, the bracket 140 is edged at the first long side LS1, the second long side LS2, the first short side SS1, and the second short side SS2 of the front substrate 101. Although it is possible to cover a part of, in this case almost all of the front of the front substrate 101 may still be exposed.

Referring to FIG. 22A, when the bracket 140 extends to the front of the front substrate 1010 of the display panel 100, the bracket 140 is overlapped with the blocking unit 1500 at the front of the front substrate 101. It is possible to include P3) In this case, the bracket 140 may cover a part of the blocking unit 1500.

Here, the portion P3 overlapping with the blocking portion 1500 of the bracket 140 may contact the blocking portion 1500.

In addition, even when the bracket 140 covers a part of the blocking unit 1500, the size of the region where the bracket 140 and the blocking unit 1500 overlap with each other is an area where the bracket 140 and the blocking unit 1500 do not overlap. It may be less than the size of.

For example, the size of the portion P3 covered by the bracket 140 in the blocking unit 1500 may be smaller than the size of the portion W100 exposed without being covered by the bracket 140 in the blocking unit 1500. Can be.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 22B, the bracket 140 may cover a part of the blocking part 1500 on the first long side LS1 and the second long side LS2 of the front substrate 101, but the front substrate ( On the first short side SS1 and the second short side SS2 of the 101, the blocking unit 1500 may be exposed without being blocked by the bracket 140.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 22C, at the first short side SS1 and the second short side SS2 of the front substrate 101, the bracket 140 may cover a part of the blocking part 1500, but the front substrate ( On the first long side LS1 and the second long side LS2 of the 101, the blocking unit 1500 may be exposed without being covered by the bracket 140.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 22D, the blocking unit 1500 may be disposed on the first long side LS1, the second long side LS2, the first short side SS1, and the second short side SS2 of the front substrate 101. It is possible for the bracket 140 to cover a part, but even in this case, most of the blocking unit 1500 may still be exposed.

22A to 22D may be applied to the case where the auxiliary bracket 2300 described below is added. That is, in the contents of FIGS. 22A to 22D, the bracket 140 may be changed to the auxiliary bracket 2300.

Referring to FIG. 23A, an auxiliary bracket 2300 may be disposed between the bracket 140 and the back cover 130. As such, when the auxiliary bracket 2300 is used, the design of the display device can be easily changed by changing the shape of the auxiliary bracket 2300 exposed to the outside without changing the shape of the bracket 140. In detail, the connection structure of the back cover 130 can be easily changed without changing the arrangement of the optical layer 110 or the backlight unit 120 using the auxiliary bracket 2300. That is, the basic structure of the display device can be easily changed without changing the connection structure of the back cover 130.

One side of the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be fixed to the bracket 140, and the back cover 130 may be fixed to the other side of the auxiliary bracket 2300.

In order to fix the back cover 130 to the auxiliary bracket 2300, a recess 2310 is formed in the auxiliary bracket 2300 in the direction toward the bracket 140, and the back cover 130 is formed in the groove 2310. It is possible for the edge of to be inserted.

Here, the groove 2310 formed in the auxiliary bracket 2300 to fix the back cover 130 may be referred to as a fourth groove 2310.

When the back cover 130 is fixed to the auxiliary bracket 2300, the back cover 130 and the backlight unit 120 may be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance. As described above with reference to FIGS. 14 to 15, when the back cover 130 is fixed to the bracket 140, the back cover 130 and the backlight unit 120 may be substantially the same as the predetermined distances. have.

In addition, even when the back cover 130 is fixed to the auxiliary bracket 2300, the edge of the front surface of the front substrate 101 is exposed or the side edge of the side of the front substrate 101 is exposed. It is possible to be exposed. This has been described in detail with reference to FIGS. 14 to 15.

Referring to FIG. 23B, the display panel 100 may include a portion W200 extending further than the auxiliary bracket 2300 in the longitudinal direction. This has been described in detail above.

In addition, the bracket 140 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be fastened by a predetermined fastening means. For example, as shown in FIG. 24, the groove 140 for fastening with the auxiliary bracket 2300 is formed in the bracket 140, and the hole through which the fastening means 2400 passes through the auxiliary bracket 2300. 2320 may be formed. In this case, the fastening means 2400 such as a screw may be fixed to the groove 144 formed in the bracket 140 by passing through the hole 2320 formed in the auxiliary bracket 2300. Here, the groove 144 for fastening with the auxiliary bracket 2300 formed in the bracket 140 may be referred to as a fifth groove 144.

Referring to FIG. 25, the auxiliary bracket 2300 may include a portion 2330 positioned at the side of the display panel 100.

That is, the auxiliary bracket 2300 may extend to the side of the display panel 100. For example, the auxiliary bracket 2300 extends to the side of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100 so that the auxiliary bracket 2300 is located at the side of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100. Or, the auxiliary bracket 2300 extends to the side of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100 so that the auxiliary bracket 2300 is the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100. It may include a portion located on the side of).

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 26, the auxiliary bracket 2300 may extend to the side of the display panel 100 and the front of the front substrate 1010. Accordingly, the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be formed of the display panel 100. It may include a portion 2330 positioned on the side and a portion 2340 positioned on the front surface of the front substrate 101.

In this case, a part of the edge of the front surface of the front substrate 101 may be covered by the auxiliary bracket 2300, but most of the front surface of the front substrate 101 may still be exposed.

In addition, even when the auxiliary bracket 2300 covers a part of the front edge of the front substrate 101, it may not cover all the edges of the front surface of the front substrate 101. The contents may be substantially the same as the contents of FIGS. 21B to 21D.

In addition, when the auxiliary bracket 2300 extends to the front surface of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100, the auxiliary bracket 2300 on the front surface of the front substrate 101 overlaps with the blocking unit 1500 ( It is possible to include P4). In this case, the auxiliary bracket 2300 may cover a part of the blocking unit 1500.

Here, the portion P4 overlapping the blocking portion 1500 of the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be in contact with the blocking portion 1500.

In addition, even when the auxiliary bracket 2300 covers a part of the blocking unit 1500, the size of the region where the auxiliary bracket 2300 and the blocking unit 1500 overlap the size of the auxiliary bracket 2300 and the blocking unit 1500. It may be smaller than the size of the non-region. The contents of the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be substantially the same as the contents of FIGS. 22B to 22D.

On the other hand, the bracket 140 may be divided into a plurality. For example, as in the case of FIG. 27, the bracket 140 may include the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2.

Here, the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 are attached to the long sides LS1 and LS2 of the rear surface of the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100, and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 are displayed on the display panel 100. It is possible to be attached to the short side (SS1, SS2) side of the back of the rear substrate 111 of the panel 100.

In addition, the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 may be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined interval d10. Preferably, the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 may be spaced apart from each other at a corner portion of the rear surface of the rear substrate 111.

In this case, a process of attaching the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 to the rear substrate 111 may be facilitated, and the total manufacturing cost may be reduced by lowering the unit cost of the bracket 140. Can be.

In addition, the optical layer 110 may be fixed to at least one of the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2. For example, as in the case of Figure 28, the optical layer 110 is fixed to the first bracket (140A1, 140A2) of the first bracket (140A1, 140A2) and the second bracket (140B1, 140B2), the second bracket It may not be fixed to 140B1 and 140B2. In other words, the optical layer 110 may overlap or contact the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2, and may be spaced a predetermined distance without overlapping the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2.

In this case, the width A10 of the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 may be different from the width A20 of the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2. Preferably, as in the case of FIG. 29, the width A10 of the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 to which the optical layer 110 is fixed may be larger than the width A20 of the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2. . Since the optical layer 110 is not fixed to the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2, the width A20 may be small.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 30, the optical layer 110 may be fixed to the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2, respectively. Even in this case, the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 having a length longer than the lengths of the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 may provide the main supporting force for the optical layer 110. Accordingly, the width A10 of the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 may be larger than the width A20 of the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2.

In addition, the first bracket 140A1 and 140A2 and the second bracket 140B1 and 140B2 may be connected by a predetermined connection means. For example, as shown in FIG. 31, the connection part 3100 may be disposed between the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 spaced apart from each other, and the connection part 3100 may be predetermined. The first bracket (140A1, 140A2) and the second bracket (140B1, 140B2) can be connected by being connected to the first bracket (140A1, 140A2) and the second bracket (140B1, 140B2) by the fastening means (3110) of the. .

Referring to FIG. 32, the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2 may be integrally formed. In this case, the portions disposed on the long sides LS1 and LS2 of the rear substrate 111 in the bracket 140 are called first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and disposed on the short sides SS1 and SS2 of the rear substrate 111. It is possible to call the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2.

Even in this case, it is possible for the width A10 of the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 to be larger than the width A20 of the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2.

Referring to FIG. 33, a single auxiliary bracket 2300 may be connected to the first brackets 140A1 and 140A2 and the second brackets 140B1 and 140B2. In this case, between the first bracket (140A1, 140A2) and the second bracket (140B1, 140B2) while the auxiliary bracket (2300) is connected to the first bracket (140A1, 140A2) and the second bracket (140B1, 140B2). An empty space may be provided.

Referring to FIG. 34, the width L10 of the front polarizing film 3400 disposed on the front surface of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100 and the rear polarizing film 3410 disposed on the rear surface of the back substrate 111 are shown. The width L11 may be different from each other. Here, the width L10 of the front polarizing film 3400 and the width L11 of the rear polarizing film 3410 are the widths in the cross section of the display panel 100.

Preferably, the width L10 of the front polarizing film 3400 may be larger than the width L11 of the rear polarizing film 3410.

Looking at this in more detail, as in the case of FIG. 35A, the front polarizing film 3400 may include a portion A30 overlapping with the bracket 140. In addition, the bracket 140 may be spaced apart from the rear polarizing film 3410 and a predetermined distance d11 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rear substrate 111. In this case, the bracket 140 may be directly attached to the rear substrate 111, and thus the adhesion between the bracket 140 and the rear substrate 111 may be improved.

In addition, the front polarizing film 3400 may be spaced apart from the end of the front surface of the front substrate 101 by a predetermined distance (d12). In this case, the process of attaching the front polarizing film 3400 to the front substrate 101 may be facilitated, and the yield may be improved.

Referring to FIG. 35B, the blocking unit 1500 and the front polarizing film 3400 may overlap. For example, the blocking unit 1500 may include a portion disposed above the front polarizing film 3400.

In addition, the front polarizing film 3400 may include a portion Y1 that extends more than the blocking portion 1500 in the outer direction of the display panel 100. In FIG. 35B, only the blocking part 1500 is disposed on the front polarizing film 3400, but the blocking part 1500 is disposed between the front polarizing film 3400 and the front substrate 101. If possible, even in this case, the front polarizing film 3400 may include a portion Y1 that extends more than the blocking portion 1500 in the outer direction of the display panel 100.

Alternatively, as illustrated in FIG. 35C, the blocking unit 1500 may include a portion Y2 that extends more than the front polarizing film 3400 in the outward direction of the display panel 100. In this case, the blocking unit 1500 may also be in contact with the front polarizing film 3400 and may also be in contact with the front substrate 101.

In FIG. 35C, only the blocking part 1500 is disposed on the front polarizing film 3400, but the blocking part 1500 is disposed between the front polarizing film 3400 and the front substrate 101. If possible, even in this case, the blocking unit 1500 may include a portion Y2 that extends more than the front polarizing film 3400 in the outer direction of the display panel 100.

Alternatively, the blocking unit 1500 and the front polarizing film 3400 may be formed on the same layer. In this case, the blocking unit 1500 may be disposed outside the front polarizing film 3400.

Referring to FIG. 36, when the bracket 140 is spaced apart from the rear polarizing film 3410 in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rear substrate 111 by a predetermined distance d11, the bracket 140 may be disposed on the optical layer 110. An air layer 3600 may be formed between the bracket 140 and the rear polarizing film 3410 in a state of being disposed inside.

In addition, when the auxiliary bracket 2300 includes a portion located on the side of the display panel 100, the front polarizing film 3400 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 are a predetermined distance d22 from the front of the front substrate 101. Can be spaced apart. The same may be applied to the case where the auxiliary bracket 2300 is not used and the bracket 140 includes a portion located on the side of the display panel 100.

Referring to (a) and (b) of FIG. 37, the short sides SS1 and SS2 of the front substrate 101 extend longer than the short sides SS1 and SS2 of the rear substrate 111, and the long sides of the front substrate 101. The LS1 and LS2 may extend further than the long sides LS1 and LS2 of the rear substrate 111.

For example, the first short side SS1 of the short side SS of the front substrate 101 may be smaller than the first short side SS1 of the back substrate 111 corresponding to the first short side SS1 of the front substrate 101. The second short side SS2 extending by the first length S1, and the second short side SS2 of the short sides of the front substrate 101 corresponds to the second short side SS2 of the front substrate 101 ( It is possible to extend by the second length S2 rather than SS2).

Here, the first length S1 and the second length S2 may be substantially the same.

Alternatively, the first length S1 and the second length S2 may be different from each other. In this case, the structures of the first short side SS1 and the second short side SS2 of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100 may be different from each other.

For example, the first short side SS1 of the rear substrate 111 for mounting a gate driver on the first short side SS1 of the rear substrate 111 corresponding to the first short side SS1 of the front substrate 101. A large enough space can be provided on the side. In this case, the first length S1 may be smaller than the second length S2.

The first long side LS1 of the long side LS of the front substrate 101 is connected to the first long side LS1 of the rear substrate 111 corresponding to the first long side LS1 of the front substrate 101, And the second long side LS2 of the long side LS of the front substrate 101 is extended to the second long side LS2 of the rear substrate 111 corresponding to the second long side LS2 of the front substrate 101 (S20) than the second length LS2.

Here, the twentieth length S20 and the tenth length S10 may be different from each other.

As such, when the long side LS and the short side SS of the front substrate 101 extend longer than the long side LS and the short side SS of the rear substrate 111, as shown in FIG. 38, the front substrate ( An interval X1 between the 101 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be different from an interval X2 between the rear substrate 111 and the auxiliary bracket 2300. Preferably, the distance X1 between the front substrate 101 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be smaller than the distance X2 between the rear substrate 111 and the auxiliary bracket 2300.

The same may be applied to the case where the auxiliary bracket 2300 is not used and the bracket 140 includes a portion located on the side of the display panel 100.

Meanwhile, at least one of a gate driver for supplying a driving signal to the gate line and a data driver for supplying a driving signal to the data line may be mounted on the outer side of the rear substrate 111. The data driver 3910 includes a plurality of source drive ICs. Gate driver 3900 includes a plurality of gate drive ICs.

For example, as in the case of FIG. 39, the gate driver 3900 and the data driver 3910 may be formed on the rear substrate 111, respectively. Here, the gate driver 3900 and the data driver 3910 are formed on the rear substrate 111, respectively, so that the circuit elements necessary for driving the gate driver 3900 and the circuit elements necessary for driving the data driver 3910 are rear surfaces. It may mean that the substrate 111 is directly patterned through a semiconductor manufacturing process.

The gate driver 3900 and the data driver 3910 may be formed on the rear substrate 111 in the dummy area DA outside the screen area AA where an image is displayed.

In this case, since circuit elements necessary for realizing an image may be directly formed on the rear substrate 111, the number or size of circuit boards disposed outside may be reduced, thereby further reducing the size or thickness of the display device.

Referring to FIG. 40, when the long side LS and the short side SS of the front substrate 101 extend longer than the long side LS and the short side SS of the rear substrate 111, the gate driver 3900 and the gate driver 3900. The data driver 3910 may be formed in an area OVA common to the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111.

The transistor 103 formed on the rear substrate 111, that is, a thin film transistor (TFT) for turning on / off liquid crystals for each pixel, is called a first transistor unit 103, and When the transistor included in the gate driver 3900 or the data driver 3910 formed in the region OVA common to the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111 overlaps with the outside, the first transistor is a first transistor. The unit 103 is disposed inside the seal unit 200, and the second transistor unit is disposed in an area OVA that overlaps the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111 at the outside of the seal unit 200.

For example, as shown in FIG. 41, the first gate driver 3900A is disposed in an area where the rear substrate 111 and the front substrate 101 overlap with each other at the first short side SS1 of the rear substrate 111. The second gate driver 3900B may be disposed in an area where the rear substrate 111 and the front substrate 101 overlap with each other at the second short side SS2 of the rear substrate 111.

In this case, the first length S1 can be substantially the same as the second length S2.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 42, the data driver 3910 may be disposed in an area where the rear substrate 111 and the front substrate 101 overlap on the second long side LS2 of the rear substrate 111. . In addition, the data driver may not be disposed in an area where the rear substrate 111 and the front substrate 101 overlap at the first long side LS1 of the rear substrate 111.

In this case, the twentieth length S20 may be larger than the tenth length S10.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 43, the rear substrate 111 and the front substrate 101 of the outer portion of the seal portion 200 overlap with each other at the second long side LS2 of the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111. The pad electrode 4300 may be formed in the region.

Here, the pad electrode 4300 may be used for electrical connection of the driving board 1900 for supplying a driving signal to a predetermined transistor.

For example, a driving board 1900 for supplying a driving signal to the display panel 100 is formed outside the display panel 100, for example, between the frame 1600 and the back cover 130 as in the case of FIG. 19. Can be placed in.

In this case, a connector 4310 is disposed on the driving board 1900, one end of the connection board 4320 including the electrode 4330 is connected to the connector 4310, and the other end of the connection board 4320 is connected to the driving board 1900. The pad electrode 4300 may be connected to the pad electrode 4300. Accordingly, the driving board 1900 and the pad electrode 4300, in detail, the driving board 1900 and the data driver 3910 may be electrically connected to each other.

The connection substrate 4320 may be a flexible substrate such as a tape carrier package (TCP), a flexible printed circuit (FPC), or the like.

As described above, the connection substrate 4320 may be connected to the pad electrode 4300 at the portion where the pad electrode 4300 is formed, and the front substrate 101 may not be visible from the front of the display panel. ) Can be extended longer than the rear substrate 111. That is, when the pad electrode 4300 is formed on the second long side LS2 of the rear substrate 111, the twentieth length S20 may be larger than the tenth length S10.

Referring to FIG. 44, the first pad electrode 4300A and the second pad electrode 4300B may be formed on the second long side LS2 side of the rear substrate 111 on the outer side of the seal portion 200.

In addition, a second transmission between the second pad electrode 4300B and the data driver 3910 for transmitting a driving signal transmitted from the driving board (not shown) through the second connection board 4320B to the data driver 3910. Line 4410 may be formed.

Referring to FIG. 45A, the seal part 200 disposed between the front substrate 101 and the rear substrate 111 may be formed in the dummy area DA outside the screen area AA displaying an image. Accordingly, the seal 200 may overlap the blocking unit 1500.

In addition, the screen area AA may be formed in an area overlapping the optical layer 110 disposed on the inner side IA of the bracket 140. Accordingly, the seal portion 200 sealing the liquid crystal layer 104 may be located at the inner side IA of the bracket 140. In detail, the inner side IA of the bracket 140 of the seal part 200 may be spaced apart from the bracket 140 by a predetermined distance C1 in the longitudinal direction of the rear substrate 111.

Alternatively, as in the case of FIG. 45B, the seal part 200 may include a portion 201 positioned in the inner side IA of the bracket 140 and a portion 202 overlapping the bracket 140. In this case, the liquid crystal layer 104 may be more tightly sealed by making the width of the seal portion 200 sufficiently large, thereby improving structural stability.

Referring to FIG. 46, the blocking unit 1500 may be disposed on the rear surface of the front substrate 101.

Preferably, when the front substrate 101 extends further by a predetermined length C10 than the rear substrate 111, the blocking unit 1500 may be disposed on the rear surface of the front substrate 101. In this case, while the blocking unit 1500 disposed on the rear side of the front substrate 101 may cover the rear substrate 111 outside the seal unit 200, the blocking unit 1500 is exposed to the front side of the front substrate 101. It can prevent a thing and can be aesthetically beautiful.

In addition, in order to facilitate the attaching process of the blocking unit 1500 and increase the blocking efficiency while increasing the yield, the end of the front substrate 101 in the outward direction of the display panel 100 is more than the blocking unit 1500 by a predetermined length. The blocking unit 1500 may be extended by a predetermined length C20 more than the end of the rear substrate 111.

On the other hand, it is possible to fasten the auxiliary bracket 2300 and the back cover 130 by the fastening means.

For example, as shown in FIG. 47, the bracket 140 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 are fastened by the first fastening means 2400, and the auxiliary bracket 2300 and the back cover 130 are fastened by the second fastening means ( 4710).

The first circular flat light and the second circular flat light are perpendicular to each other. In the panel 100, the left eye image and the right eye image are alternately displayed in units of frames, and in synchronization with the display timing, the active retard 14 causes the left eye image to be the first circular light and the right eye image to the second circular light. Permeate through.

Meanwhile, the left eye lens of the glasses used by the viewer may be configured with the first circularly flattened filter, and the right eye lens may be configured with the second circularly flattened filter.

Accordingly, the viewer sees only the first circularly flattened left eye image through the left eye and only the second circularly flattened right eye image through the right eye, thereby creating a binocular disparity in a time-division manner to view a 3D image.

In addition, the filter 12 may be further disposed on the front surface of the panel 100. Preferably this filter 12 may be laminated to the front of the panel 100. The filter 12 protects the panel 100 from mechanical defects such as scratches, such that the panel 100 exposed to the outside forms the exterior. The filter 12 may include an opaque layer 12a disposed at an edge and a transparent layer 12b disposed therein. The opaque layer 12a is provided to correspond substantially to the non-display area (dummy area) of the panel 100, and the transparent layer 12b is formed in the same manner as the screen area of the panel 100. The transparent layer 12b Silver may also be removed from the filter 12.

The opaque layer 12a prevents the bracket 140 from being seen through the panel 100 and at the same time is made of the same color as the bracket 140 so that the panel 100 and the bracket ( The panel 100 and the bracket 140 are separated from each other so that the panel looks larger than the actual one.

The opaque layer 12a may be the blocking unit described above.

The bracket 140 supports the panel 100 and accommodates the optical layer 110 and the backlight unit 120 therein. The bracket 140 has a rectangular planar shape in accordance with the shape of the panel 100, and a groove 13a is formed around the inner wall thereof. A portion of the edge of the panel 100 (hereinafter, 'one end') is fixed while seated in the groove 13a. In addition, the optical layer 110 and the backlight unit 120 are sequentially stacked behind the panel 100 with the bracket 140 interposed therebetween.

The optical layer 110 may include a prism sheet 110a, a diffusion plate 110b, and the like, and transmits light transmitted from the backlight unit 120 to the panel 100 to display an image.

The back cover 130 may be made of an iron material to increase structural stability, and forms an appearance of the device by combining with the bracket 140 with the optical layer 110 and the backlight unit 120 interposed therebetween.

FIG. 50 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II 'of FIG. 49 and shows a coupling state of the device.

In FIG. 50, as shown, the display device according to the present invention forms the appearance of the device by exposing the panel to the front side with the front components such as glass omitted.

The panel 100 may be fixed to the bracket 140 by the adhesive member 16 in a state where one end is seated in the groove 13a provided in the bracket 140. On the other hand, the bracket 140 may be configured to include a groove 141 in which the adhesive member 400 is located.

On the other hand, the panel 100 is preferably, it is coupled to the bracket 140 and the same height (h).

Meanwhile, the backlight unit 120 may include a light emitting unit 17a and a support plate 1600. Although the light emitting unit 17a will be described in detail below, light emitting light sources, for example, may be formed in a direct structure by mounting a light emitting diode on a substrate, and the support plate 1600 structurally supports the light emitting unit 17a. The structure may be made of steel materials such as aluminum or steel sheet having good rigidity. The light emitting unit 17a may be fixed to the supporting plate 1600 by an adhesive or may be fixed through a mechanical configuration such as bolt fastening.

One end of the support plate 1600 is fixed to the boss 13b provided on the bracket 140 by screwing, and the optical layer 110 is located in close contact with the backlight unit 120 and the panel 100. It is fixed. Meanwhile, in order to prevent the optical layer 110 from moving, one end of the optical layer 110 may be fixed to the bracket 140 by an adhesive material or may be fitted to a protrusion provided on the bracket 140. Furthermore, a fixer (not shown), which is a mechanical component that fixes the bracket 140 and the optical layer 110, is positioned to eliminate the space between the bracket 140 and the optical layer 110, thereby eliminating the optical layer 110. ) Can be fixed.

FIG. 51 illustrates another example of the bracket 140, in which the bracket 140 is formed to surround the edge of the panel 100. As shown, the bracket 140 forms a shape extending to the inside of the panel 100 while surrounding the edge of the panel 100. In this case, the bracket 140 may be disposed to cover only the non-display area and the dummy area of the panel 100.

52 shows one end of the bracket 140 and the panel 100 arranged on the same line. In this embodiment, the bracket 140 is positioned on the same line as the end of the panel 100, and the panel 100 and the bracket 140 are coupled to each other through an adhesive or screw coupling.

FIG. 53 illustrates a case in which the bracket 140 is divided into a first portion 131 and a second portion 133. That is, the bracket 140 may provide a space between the first portion 131 surrounding the panel 100 and the backlight unit 120 and the optical layer 110 positioned therein while fixing the panel 100. It can be composed of a second portion 133 to reduce and support them to move.

54 shows an embodiment in which the backlight unit 120 is fixed by the support pins 23. One side 23a of the support pin 23 is fixed to the bracket 140 through screwing, and the other side 23b extends down to surround the backlight unit 120. Accordingly, the backlight unit 120 is fixed by the elasticity of the support pin 23.

As such, when the support pin 23 is used, since the support plate 1600 used to support the backlight unit 120 can be omitted, the thickness of the module (collectively, the backlight unit and the optical layer) can be reduced. have.

Meanwhile, in the above-described embodiment, the case in which the backlight unit is configured as a direct type has been described, but may be configured as an edge type as shown in FIG. 55. 55 shows an embodiment in which the backlight unit is configured as an edge type.

Referring to FIG. 55, the optical layer 110 may further include a light guide plate 110c and a reflecting plate 110d.

The light guide plate 110c guides the light incident from the side surface so that the light is uniformly incident on the entire panel, and the reflector plate 110d reflects the light directed to the back side toward the front of the panel 100.

The light guide plate 110c and the reflecting plate 110d are sequentially stacked and fixed by the supporting pins 23. One side of the support pin 23 is screwed to the bracket 140, and the other side extends below the reflecting plate 110d. Accordingly, the optical layer 110 may be fixed while being supported for the elastic force of the support pin 23.

The backlight unit 31 includes a light emitting diode 31b as a light source and a substrate 31a on which the light emitting diode 31b is mounted. The size and the number of light emitting diodes may vary depending on embodiments. Can be. The backlight unit 31 may be fixed to the mounting groove 131a by an adhesive material, and in this case, the mounting groove 131a may function to prevent light leakage. Of course, it is also possible if there is no seating groove as shown in FIG.

As such, when the backlight unit 31 is configured as an edge type, the thickness of the module can be reduced than that of the direct type described above.

Next, referring to FIG. 57, another display device according to the present invention includes a panel 61, a first bracket 63, a second bracket 64, an optical layer 65, a backlight unit 67, and a back cover. It is comprised, including 69.

The panel 61 displays an image and is exposed to the front to form the appearance of the apparatus. In addition, a filter 62 including a transparent layer 62a and an opaque layer 62b and an active retard 66 for generating a 3D image may be selectively disposed on the front surface of the panel 61.

The first bracket 63 supports the panel 61 and accommodates the optical layer 65 and the backlight unit 67 therein. The first bracket 63 has a “c” shape with an open bottom to support three places of the liquid crystal panel 61. A recess is formed in the inner inner wall of the first bracket 63 so that the panel 61 can be supported.

The optical layer 65 and the backlight unit 67 are sequentially stacked behind the panel 61 with the first bracket 63 interposed therebetween.

And, the second bracket 64 is disposed below the module.

FIG. 58 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line X-X 'of FIG. 57 and shows a bottom engagement view of the device including the second bracket 64.

In FIG. 58, the second bracket 64 is located under the module to form the device. The second bracket 64 is preferably positioned in close contact with the panel 61 under the module, and the second bracket 64 and the surface of the panel 61 are preferably arranged on the same line. As described above, when the second bracket 64 is positioned on the same line as the surface of the panel 61, the panel 61 is enlarged by removing the boundary between the second bracket 64 and the panel 61. It is also possible to increase the design of the device.

In addition, an electrode 7100 for detecting a change in capacitance may be further formed on an inner surface of one end of the panel 61. The electrode 7100 is made of a transparent conductive material and may be configured in the form of a lattice-shaped diamond cell. When the user indirectly touches the electrode 7100 with the panel 61 interposed therebetween, the value of the capacitance is changed at the touched point, which is transmitted to the controller 7140 to correspond to the row of the touched electrode grid. The position of the touch is determined by reading the coordinates of the line. Accordingly, the controller can control the operation of the device by generating a control signal corresponding to the touched position. According to an embodiment, the controller 7140 may control operations such as up / down of the volume of the device or up / down of the channel according to the touched position.

In addition, in order to increase the touch sensitivity of the electrode 7100, one end of the panel 61 may include only one of the upper substrate and the lower substrate, and the electrode may be formed on the rear surface of the remaining substrate.

On the other hand, the second bracket 64 has the same configuration as the control unit 7140, the speaker 71, and the remote control receiving module (not shown) connected through the electrode 7100, which is the touch sensor described above, and the signal line 7110. Elements can be arranged, and by hiding the functional module inside the second bracket 64, space utilization can be increased in a slim structure.

The second bracket 64 may be fixed to the back cover 69 by screwing with the back cover 69, and as shown in FIG. 60, the first bracket 63 may have a side surface of the second bracket 64. In the extended state to 641, the side of the first bracket 63 may be fixed with an adhesive, or may be fixed through screwing, or may be coupled to both the first bracket 63 and the back cover 69.

Meanwhile, FIG. 60 is a view showing an embodiment in which the second bracket 64 further includes a protrusion 641 extending to the inside of the panel 61. In FIG. 60, the protrusion 641 is elongated along the longitudinal direction of the second bracket 64, and accordingly, the protrusion 641 is disposed thereon while surrounding the bottom of the panel 61. In this case, the protrusion 641 may be disposed to cover only the non-display area of the panel. As such, the protrusion 641 surrounds the end portion of the structurally fragile panel 61 to protect the panel 61, and also prevents contaminants such as dust from entering the device.

61 to 63 are views for explaining an example of the configuration of the backlight unit. Hereinafter, the description of the parts described in detail above will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 61, the backlight unit 6100 includes a first layer 6110, a light source 6120, and a second layer 6130.

A plurality of light sources 6120 are formed in the first layer 6110, and a second layer 6130 is formed above the first layer 6110 to cover the light sources 6120.

The first layer 6110 may be a substrate on which the light sources 6120 are mounted, and an electrode pattern (not shown) connecting the light sources 6120 is formed on the substrate. The substrate 6110 may be formed of a metal (METAL) PCB made of a metal such as aluminum in which the insulating layer does not flow electricity.

The light source 6120 may be one of a light emitting diode (LED) chip or a light emitting diode package having at least one light emitting diode chip. The light emitting diode 6120 is preferably a side view light emitting diode having a light emitting surface facing to the side. In addition, the light source 6120 emits at least one of three primary colors of colors such as red, blue, and green, or emits white.

A second layer 6130 is formed above the first layer 6110 to fill the light sources 6120, and the second layer 6130 transmits light emitted from the light source 6120. Assured that the light emitted from light source 6120 is evenly provided to the panel.

In addition, a reflective layer 6140 reflecting light emitted from the light source 6120 may be further formed between the first layer 6110 and the second layer 6130, that is, the upper surface of the first layer 6110. The reflective layer 6140 reflects the light totally reflected from the boundary surface of the second layer 6130 so that the light emitted from the light source 6120 is provided in a more diffused state.

As the reflective layer 6140, a white pigment such as titanium oxide is dispersed in a sheet made of a synthetic resin material, a metal deposition film is disposed on a surface thereof, or a bubble is dispersed in order to scatter light in a synthetic resin sheet. In addition, silver may be coated on the surface to increase the reflectance. The reflective layer 6140 may also be formed in a form coated on the first layer 6110. The second layer 6130 may be made of a light transmissive material, for example, silicone or acrylic resin.

In addition, the second layer 6130 may be formed of a resin having a refractive index of about 1.4 to 1.6 so that the light emitted from the light source 6120 is diffused so that the backlight unit 6100 may have a uniform brightness.

The second layer 6130 may be formed by coating a resin in a liquid or gel state on top of the plurality of light sources 6120 and the first layer 6110 and curing the resin. It may be adhered to the upper portion of the first layer 6110 in a state.

As the thickness of the second layer 6130 increases, the light emitted from the light source 6120 diffuses more widely, so that light having a uniform brightness may be provided to the panel from the backlight unit 6100. On the other hand, as the thickness of the second layer 6130 increases, the amount of light absorbed by the second layer 6130 increases, so that the brightness of the light may decrease.

Therefore, the thickness a of the second layer 6130 is preferably 0.1 to 4.5 (mm) in order to obtain light of uniform brightness without reducing the brightness of the light provided from the backlight unit 6100 to the panel.

Referring to FIG. 62, a form in which the side light emitting diode 6120 is disposed is illustrated.

These light emitting diodes 6120 emit light in the lateral direction. Thus, in order for the backlight unit 6100 to exhibit uniform brightness as a whole, the light emitting diodes 6120 may be disposed to form two or more rows. Here, the light emitting diodes 6120 disposed in the same row emit light in the same direction.

For example, light sources left and right adjacent to the first light source 6120 also emit light in the same direction as the first light source 6120 (the arrow direction in the drawing), and light sources adjacent to the left and right sides of the second light source 6121 are formed of the first light source 6120. 1 Light is emitted in a direction opposite to the light source 6120 (the direction opposite to the arrow in the drawing).

As such, since the light emitting diodes 6120 and 6121 emit light in opposite directions along the row, the phenomenon in which the luminance of the light is concentrated or weakened in a specific area of the backlight unit 6100 may be reduced.

The backlight unit 6100 formed as described above may be driven by a whole driving method or a partial driving method such as local dimming or impulsove.

That is, the backlight unit 6100 may be operated by being divided into a plurality of divided driving regions, and the display quality of an image such as contrast ratio and clarity may be improved by driving the luminance of the divided driving region according to the luminance of the image signal. In accordance with this, the backlight unit 6100 may also be formed in a plurality of combined forms. For example, the plurality of optical assemblies 6101 illustrated in FIG. 63 may be assembled to form one backlight unit 6100. In this case, only some of the optical assemblies 6101 may be driven independently to emit light, and for this purpose, the light sources 6120 included in the respective optical assemblies 6101 may be independently controlled.

Meanwhile, an area of the panel corresponding to one optical assembly 6101 may be divided into two or more blocks, and the panel and the backlight unit 6100 may be dividedly driven in blocks. As such, when the backlight unit 6100 is configured of the plurality of optical assemblies 6101, the manufacturing process of the backlight unit 6100 may be simplified, and the loss that may occur in the manufacturing process may be minimized. In addition, the backlight unit 6100 may be applied to backlight units of various sizes by standardizing and mass-producing the optical assembly 6101.

Furthermore, when a failure occurs in the light emitting diode provided in the backlight unit 6100, the replacement operation is easy because only the optical assembly 6101 is selectively replaced without the need to replace the entire backlight unit 6100. The cost of replacing parts can be reduced.

64 to 79 are views for explaining another method of arranging the optical layer. Hereinafter, the description of the parts described in detail above will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 64, the optical layer 110 may not be fixed to the bracket 140 and may be disposed on one surface of the bracket 140. In this case, the optical layer 110 may be movable on the bracket 140.

Here, although the shape of the bracket 140 is different from that described above, the shape of the bracket 140 of FIG. 64 may be the same as, for example, the case of FIG. 4. It is possible that the shape of the bracket 140 is not limited.

In this structure, the manufacturing process may be simplified because the optical layer 110 may be simply placed on the bracket 140. In addition, if the size of the optical layer 110 is designed to correspond to the size of the bracket 140, even when the optical layer 110 is simply placed on top of the bracket 140, the optical layer 110 at the top of the bracket 140 It is possible to limit the movement of the).

As such, when the optical layer 110 is disposed on the bracket 140, the predetermined distance Z1 may be spaced apart from the optical layer 110 and the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100. As in the case of 65, an air layer 6500 may be formed between the rear substrate 111 and the optical layer 110.

As such, when an air layer 6500 is formed between the rear substrate 111 and the optical layer 110, the optical characteristics of the display device may be improved by the air layer 6500.

Referring to FIG. 66, a fixing part 6600 may be disposed on one surface of the bracket 140, and an optical layer 110 may be disposed on the fixing part 6600. The fixing part 6600 may have a shape protruding in a direction away from the display panel 100.

As described above, when the fixing part 6600 is disposed on the optical layer 110, the contact surface between the optical layer 110 and the fixing part 6600 is relatively small, thereby preventing damage to the optical layer 110. It is possible.

In addition, in order to suppress the movement of the optical layer 110 and to sufficiently prevent the damage of the optical layer 110, the fixing part 6600 in contact with the optical layer 110 may have a softer property than the bracket 140. . For example, the fixing part 6600 may include a polyurethane material.

The light guide plate 7000 may be disposed behind the optical layer 110.

Here, the maximum height Z2 of the optical layer 110 measured from the rear surface of the rear substrate 111 may be smaller than the height Z3 of the bracket 140 to prevent the optical layer 110 from being separated.

In addition, even when the light guide plate 7000 is disposed behind the optical layer 110, the maximum height Z4 of the light guide plate 7000 measured from the rear surface of the rear substrate 111 is prevented to prevent the light guide plate 7000 from being separated. It may be smaller than the height Z3 of the bracket 140.

In addition, the fixing part 6600 can have a stripe shape as in the case of FIG. 67. In this case, one fixing part 6600 may be disposed in one bracket 140.

Alternatively, the fixing unit 6600 may be a plurality of, as in the case of FIG. That is, the plurality of fixing parts 6600 may be disposed in one bracket 140. In this case, the size of the contact surface between the fixing part 6600 and the optical layer 110 can be further reduced.

Referring to FIG. 69, a frame 1600 may be disposed behind the optical layer 110.

The frame 1600 may be fixed to the bracket 140. For example, the bracket 140 may include a protrusion 145 protruding in a direction D30 away from the display panel 100, and the frame 1600 may be connected to the protrusion 145. In this case, although not shown, it is possible to connect the protrusion 1600 of the frame 1600 and the bracket 140 using a fastening means such as a screw.

In such a structure, when the direct type light source is installed, the backlight unit 120 may be disposed between the frame 1600 and the optical layer 110.

On the other hand, when the edge-type light source is installed, as in the case of Figure 70, the light guide plate 7000 may be disposed between the frame 1600 and the optical layer 110, the edge type on the side of the light guide plate 7000 The backlight unit 7010 may be disposed. The edge type backlight unit 7010 may include a substrate 7011 and a light source 7022 such as an LED disposed on the substrate 7011.

The display device according to the present invention may include an edge type backlight unit 7010 or may include a direct type backlight unit. In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, both edge type and direct type may be possible.

Referring to FIG. 71, a back cover 130 may be disposed behind the frame 1600.

In addition, the back cover 10 may be fixed to the bracket 140. For example, as in the case of FIG. 71, the back cover 130 may be fastened and fixed to a protrusion 145 of the bracket 140 by a predetermined fastening means (not shown). Preferably, the frame 1600 may be connected to one side of the protrusion 145 of the bracket 140 and the back cover 130 may be connected to the other side of the protrusion 145. In this case, a part of the frame 1600 and a part of the back cover 130 may face each other with the bracket 140 interposed therebetween.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 72, a driving board 7210 for supplying a driving signal to the display panel 100 may be disposed between the frame 1600 and the back cover 130.

In addition, an air layer 7200 may be formed between the frame 1600 and the back cover 130. The air layer 7200 may be generated by providing a space for arranging the driving board 7210 between the frame 1600 and the back cover 130.

Here, the air layer 6500 formed between the optical layer 110 and the rear substrate 111 is called a first air gap, and is formed between the frame 1600 and the back cover 130. When the air layer 7200 is referred to as a second air layer, the thickness Z5 of the second air layer 7200 may be larger than the thickness Z1 of the first air layer 6500.

Referring to FIG. 73, an auxiliary bracket 2300 may be connected to the bracket 140. In addition, the back cover 130 may be fixed to the auxiliary bracket 2300. Preferably, a groove 2310 may be formed in the auxiliary bracket 2300, and an edge of the back cover 130 may be inserted into the groove 2310.

Preferably, as in the case of FIG. 74, the end of the back cover 130 may be inserted into the groove 2310 of the auxiliary bracket 2300 in a rolled state. In this case, the coupling force of the auxiliary bracket 2300 and the back cover 130 may be improved. In addition, it is possible to firmly connect the auxiliary bracket 2300 and the back cover 130 without using a fastening means such as a screw.

In addition, the end of the back cover 130 may be rolled in a direction toward the center of the display panel 100 in order to prevent the infiltration of foreign matter, improve workability, and aesthetics.

Here, although the shape of the auxiliary bracket 2300 is different from the case of FIGS. 23A to 23B described above, the shape of the auxiliary bracket 2300 of FIG. 73 may be the same as the case of FIGS. 23A to 23B. It is possible that the shape of the auxiliary bracket 2300 is not limited.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 75, the auxiliary bracket 2300 may include a portion 2330 positioned at the side of the display panel 100.

In addition, the bracket 140 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance Z10 in the longitudinal direction D31 of the display panel 100. That is, the air layer may be formed between the bracket 140 and the auxiliary bracket 2300 in the longitudinal direction D31 of the display panel 100.

In this case, the overall weight can be reduced while the appearance of the display device is beautiful. In addition, by preventing the auxiliary bracket 2300 from contacting the display panel 100, it is possible to prevent the display panel 100 from being damaged by contact with the auxiliary bracket 2300.

Referring to FIG. 76, when the optical layer 110 is placed on the bracket 140, the bracket 140 may include a portion 142 positioned on the side of the display panel 100.

Alternatively, as in the case of FIG. 77, the back cover 130 may extend to the side of the display panel 100. That is, the back cover 130 may include a portion 132 positioned on the side of the display panel 100.

Referring to FIG. 78, the side surface of the adhesive layer 400 disposed between the bracket 140 and the rear substrate 111 may be exposed. In this case, it is possible to make the width of the adhesive layer 400 larger, thereby improving the adhesive force.

In this case, it is possible to form the adhesive layer 400 by applying an adhesive material between the rear substrate 111 and the bracket 140, or the adhesive sheet between the rear substrate 111 and the bracket 140. It may also be possible to form the adhesive layer 400 in a manner to attach to the. For example, the adhesive layer 400 may be formed using an adhesive sheet in the form of a double-sided tape.

Referring to FIG. 79, the thickness Z11 of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100 and the thickness Z10 of the rear substrate 111 may be different from each other.

In the display device according to the present invention, the edge of the front surface of the front substrate 101 of the display panel 100 may be exposed, so that the front substrate 101 may be prevented from being damaged. It may be preferable that the thickness Z11 of the? In this case, the thickness Z11 of the front substrate 101 may be thicker than the thickness Z10 of the rear substrate 111.

80 to 104 are views for explaining still another configuration of the display apparatus according to the present invention. Hereinafter, the description of the parts described in detail above will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 80, it is possible to arrange the auxiliary frame 8000 between the frame 1600 and the bracket 140. For example, the auxiliary frame 8000 may be connected to the bracket 140 by a predetermined fastening means 8010, and the frame 1600 may be disposed in the auxiliary frame 8000.

In such a structure, an edge type backlight unit 7010 including a substrate 7011 and a light source 7102 such as an LED disposed on the substrate 7011 may be disposed in the auxiliary frame 8000. In this case, heat generated in the edge type backlight unit 7010 may be effectively discharged through the auxiliary frame 8000. Accordingly, it is possible to improve the stability of the edge type backlight unit 7010.

In addition, as in the case of FIG. 81, a heat transfer layer 8100 may be formed between the auxiliary frame 8000 and the frame 1600. In this case, heat generated by the edge type backlight unit 7010 may be effectively transmitted to the frame 1600 via the auxiliary frame 8000.

Here, the heat transfer layer 8100 may preferably include an adhesive material. In addition, the heat transfer layer 8100 may include metal particles for effective heat transfer.

Referring to FIG. 82, the frame 1600, the bracket 140, and the auxiliary bracket 2300 may be exposed in a direction D30 away from the display panel 100. The exposed area is indicated by a dotted line in the figure.

In addition, it is possible to fasten the frame 1600, the bracket 140, and the auxiliary bracket 2300 together using the predetermined fastening means 8200. In this case, the number of fastening means 8200 can be reduced, and the fastening process can be simplified.

Referring to FIG. 83, the back cover 130 may include a heat pipe 8300 filled with a fluid. The heat pipe 8300 may transfer heat through evaporation and condensation of the fluid filled therein. Accordingly, it is possible to improve the thermal stability of the driving board 7210 for supplying a driving signal to the display panel 100 for displaying an image.

In addition, the arrangement direction of the heat pipe 8300 included in the back cover 130 may be changed according to the shape of the driving board 7210.

For example, as in the case of FIG. 84, assume that the driving board 7210 is disposed to be long in the direction D50 parallel to the long SIde LS of the frame 1600.

In this case, in the back cover 130, the heat pipes 8300 may be disposed to be long in the direction D51 parallel to the short side SS of the back cover 130. In such a structure, the fluid filled in the heat pipe 8300 can be evaporated at a position proximate to the drive board 7210, and the evaporated fluid can be condensed again at a position relatively far from the drive board 7210 to lower the temperature. Do.

In this case, the short side SS of the back cover 130 corresponds to the short side SS of the frame 1600, and the long side LS of the back cover 130 corresponds to the long side LS of the frame 1600. This is the case.

Referring to FIG. 85, the back cover 130 may be connected to and fixed to the auxiliary bracket 2300.

Here, a spring portion 8510 may be disposed on the back cover 130, and the back cover 130 may be easily connected to the auxiliary bracket 2300 by the spring portion 8510.

An end of the back cover 130 is inserted into a groove 2310 formed in the auxiliary bracket 2300, where the groove 2310 may be recessed in the direction D32 toward the display panel 100.

In addition, a recess 8500 into which the spring portion 8510 may be inserted may be formed in the groove 2310. The depression 8500 may be recessed in the length direction D35 of the display panel 100. Preferably, the recess 8500 may be recessed in a direction D35 away from the center of the display panel 100.

Looking at the spring unit 8510 in more detail, as in the case of FIG. 86, the spring unit 8510 may be formed of a first portion 8511 and a spring 8512.

Here, the first portion 8511 may pass through the hole 8800 formed at the end of the back cover 130. In addition, the first portion 8511 may be a fastening means such as a screw.

The spring 8512 may be disposed around the first portion 8511.

If the user exerts a force on the spring portion 8510, as shown in FIG. 87 (a), the spring 8512 is compressed to move the spring portion 8510 in the direction of the arrow.

Thereafter, when the end of the back cover 130 is inserted into the groove 2310 of the auxiliary bracket 2300, the spring 8512 may be recovered. As a result, as shown in FIG. As the 8510 is inserted into the recess 8500, the back cover 130 may be fixed to the groove 2310 of the auxiliary bracket 2300.

Since the back cover 130 can be fixed to the auxiliary bracket 2300 in such a simple manner, the time required for the manufacturing process can be reduced.

In addition, a hole 8800 may be formed in the recess 8500 to facilitate the process of separating the back cover 130 from the auxiliary bracket 2300. Here, the hole 8800 formed in the recess 8500 may be formed such that the spring portion 8510 inserted into the recess 8500 in the outside, that is, in the D60 direction, may be observed as in FIG. 88. have. That is, the end of the spring portion 8510 is exposed through the hole 8800.

In such a structure, when the user applies a force through the hole 8800, the spring 8512 may be compressed, thereby easily detaching the back cover 130 from the groove 2310 of the auxiliary bracket 2300. will be.

Referring to FIG. 89, another recess 8900 may be formed in the groove 2310. This another recess 8900 is called a second recess, and a recess 8500 is referred to as a first recess. When the first recess 8500 is recessed in a direction D35 away from the center of the display panel 100, the second recess 8900 is recessed in a direction D34 toward the center of the display panel 100. It can be seen as.

Here, the second recessed portion 8900 may improve the degree of freedom of movement of the spring portion 8510 in the groove 2310. In addition, when the spring 8512 is compressed in the second recess 8900, a part of the spring part 8510 may be positioned for a while. Thereby, the depth R1 of the 2nd recessed part 8900 does not need to be large. Preferably, the depth R2 of the first recess 8500 may be greater than the depth R1 of the second recess 8900.

In addition, as in the case of Figure 90, the groove 2310 may be formed long in the longitudinal direction of the auxiliary bracket (2300). Accordingly, the groove 2310 may have a rail shape.

In addition, since the holes 8800 may be formed to correspond to the spring portion 8510, a plurality of holes 8800 may be formed to correspond to one groove 2310.

Referring to FIG. 91, a groove 9100 for connecting the back cover 130 may be formed in the bracket 140 instead of the auxiliary bracket 2300. As such, even when the back cover 130 is connected to the bracket 140, the contents described above with reference to FIGS. 80 to 90 may be applied.

In FIG. 91, reference numeral 9120 may be a first depression, reference numeral 9110 may be a second depression, and reference numeral 9130 may be a hole.

Referring to FIG. 92, the bracket 140 may include a protrusion 145 protruding in a direction away from the display panel 100, and the frame 1600 may be connected to the protrusion 145.

Here, the frame 1600 is located at the end of the body portion 9200 and the body portion 9200 parallel to the display panel 100 and is connected to the protrusion portion 145 of the bracket 140 in parallel with the connection portion 9210. It may include.

In addition, the connection portion 9210 of the frame 1600 and the protrusion 145 of the bracket 140 may contact each other.

It may be possible to connect the connection portion 9210 of the frame 1600 and the protrusion 145 of the bracket 140 without using fastening means such as a screw.

For example, as in the case of FIG. 93, the connection part 9210 includes a connection protrusion 9211 protruding in a direction away from the center of the display panel 100, and the protrusion 145 corresponds to the connection protrusion 9211. It may include a hole 9300. Although only a case in which a hole corresponding to the connecting protrusion 9211 is formed in the protrusion 145 is illustrated, a groove corresponding to the connecting protrusion 9211 may be formed in the protrusion 145.

In this case, it is possible to fix the frame 1600 to the bracket 140 by fitting the connecting protrusion 9211 of the connecting portion 9210 into the hole 9300 of the protrusion 145.

In this structure, the time required for the process of connecting the frame 1600 and the bracket 140 can be reduced.

Or, as in FIG. 94, the protrusion 145 has a connection protrusion 9400 protruding in the direction toward the center of the display panel 100, and a hole corresponding to the connection protrusion 9400 at the connection portion 9210. It may also be possible that 9212 is formed.

Alternatively, as in the case of FIG. 95, the connecting protrusion 9211 formed in the connecting portion 9210 may process a portion of the connecting portion 9210 to protrude.

Using this method, as shown in FIG. 96, a part of the connection part 9210 is sheeted to form a first hook portion 9600 protruding toward the protrusion 145 of the bracket 140, and the protrusion 145. It is possible to work a portion of the sheet metal to form a second hook portion 9610 protruding toward the connector portion 9210.

Here, when the first hook portion 9600 and the second hook portion 9610 are disposed to be in engagement with each other, as shown in FIG. 97, the frame 1600 may be fixed to the bracket 140.

Alternatively, as in the case of FIG. 98, a ring 9800 may be formed on the protrusion 145 of the bracket 140, and the frame 1600 may be connected to the bracket 140 by using the ring 9800. .

In detail, the connecting portion 9210 of the frame 1600 may include a connecting protrusion 9810 that is caught by the ring 9800. In this case, the frame 1600 may be fixed to the bracket 140 by fitting the connecting protrusion 9810 of the connecting portion 9210 to the ring 9800.

The connection protrusion 9810 may be formed by protruding a part of the body portion 9200 of the frame 1600 away from the center of the display panel 100.

As such, when the connecting protrusion 9810 is formed from a portion of the body portion 9200, it may be preferable that the height of the ring 9800 is high in order for the connecting protrusion 9810 to fit into the ring 9800.

In detail, as in the case of FIG. 99, the height R4 of the ring 9800 measured from the rear substrate 111 may be higher than the height R3 of the frame 1600. Referring to FIG. 99, it can be seen that the connecting protrusion 9810 of the frame 1600 passes through the ring 9800 formed in the protrusion 145 of the bracket 140.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 98, the protrusion 145 may include at least one fastening hole 9940. In addition, the connection part 9210 of the frame 1600 may also include at least one fastening hole 9830.

Here, the fastening hole 9940 formed in the protrusion 145 is referred to as a first fastening hole, and the fastening hole 9830 formed in the connection part 9210 is called a second fastening hole. The first fastening hole 9940 and the second fastening hole 9830 may correspond to each other.

In addition, since the frame 1600 and the bracket 140 are fixed by the ring 9800 and the connecting protrusion 9810, the fastening means such as a screw does not need to be fastened to the first and second fastening holes 9940 and 9830. .

Accordingly, although the first fastening hole 9940 is provided in the protrusion 145 and the second fastening hole 9830 is provided in the connection part 9210, the first and second fastening holes 9980 and 9830 are used. It is possible not to. In other words, the bracket 140 and the frame 1600 may include at least one fastening hole not used.

However, in the event that damage occurs such as breaking the ring 9800 and / or the connecting protrusion 9810, the fastening means is connected to the first and second fastening holes 9940 and 9310 to connect the frame 1600 and the bracket. It is possible to connect 140.

In addition, the bracket 140 may be formed with an auxiliary hole 9820 for improving rigidity. As such, when the auxiliary hole 9820 is formed in the bracket 140, it is possible to suppress the pressure applied to the frame 1600 from being transmitted to the display panel 100 through the bracket 140. Thus, it is possible to improve structural stability.

The size of the auxiliary hole 9820 may be larger than that of the first fastening hole 9940. On the other hand, the size of the auxiliary hole 9820 may be smaller than the size of the ring 9800.

Referring to FIG. 100, a part of the frame 1600 may pass through the bracket 140 to reach the rear substrate 111. In detail, a part of the frame 1600 may be located close to the rear substrate 111 without penetrating through the bracket 140.

In this case, static electricity generated from the display panel 100 may be effectively flowed to the frame 1600. Even if the frame 1600 and the rear substrate 111 are not in contact with each other, if the frame 1600 and the rear substrate 111 are located close to each other, static electricity generated in the display panel 100 may be flowed to the frame 1600. Accordingly, damage by static electricity can be prevented.

In detail, as in the case of FIG. 101, a predetermined hole 10100 is formed in the bracket 140, and a through part 10110 protrudes in the direction toward the display panel 100 in the connection part 9210 of the frame 1600. ) May be formed.

Here, the through part 10110 may pass through the hole 10100 of the bracket 140 to reach the rear substrate 111 of the display panel 100. That is, the penetrating portion 10110 penetrates the bracket 140. In other words, a part of the connection part 9210 of the frame 1600 may be viewed as passing through the bracket 140.

Referring to FIG. 102, even though the penetrating portion 10110 penetrates the bracket 140, it can be seen that the penetrating portion 10110 is spaced apart from the rear substrate 111 by a predetermined distance R10.

On the other hand, the adhesive layer 400 is formed between the bracket 140 and the rear substrate 111, the adhesive layer 400 is not formed in the region where the through portion 10110 is located can be omitted.

For example, as shown in FIG. 103, it can be seen that the adhesive layer 400 is omitted between the through part 10110 of the frame 1600 and the rear substrate 111.

In this case, two adjacent adhesive layers 400 may be viewed as being spaced apart from the predetermined distance R20. In addition, although not shown, a partition rib may be formed between the two adhesive layers 400 spaced apart from each other to prevent the adhesive material from invading.

In addition, referring to FIG. 104, the adhesive layer 400 may be omitted between the through part 10110 and the rear substrate 111 of the frame 1600, and a gasket 10400 may be disposed.

The gasket 10400 is in contact with the through part 10110 and the rear substrate 111, whereby it is possible to further improve the static electricity blocking effect.

The gasket 10400 may include a material having a lower strength than the frame 1600, and may include metal powder to further increase the electrostatic value blocking effect.
