20080311785 | CONNECTOR FOR A DISPLAY APPARATUS - A connector that is capable of reducing defects in display apparatuses is presented. The connector includes a body, a plurality of terminals and a cover. The body has a base and a sidewall. The terminals are disposed on the body and arranged to make an electrical connection with the electrical circuit when the electrical circuit is received by the body. The cover includes a rotation axis, a fixing portion extending from the rotation axis such that the fixing portion is substantially parallel to the base of the body, and a protrusion portion protruding from the rotation axis substantially perpendicularly to the base of the body. The connector prevents electrical discharge from the flexible printed circuit board to the electrical circuit and prevents physical damage to the electrical circuit. Therefore, defect rate decreases and a yield of a display apparatus increases. | 12-18-2008 |
20090002601 | Backlight Assembly and Display Device Having the Same - In a backlight assembly of a display device, a supporting frame receives a light-guide plate while exposing a light-exiting surface of the light-guide plate. A first receiving member covers an opposite surface of the light-guide plate facing the light-exiting surface, and a side first portion of the light-guide plate adjacent to a first side surface is inserted into a first sidewall portion of the first receiving member. A first light source is disposed between the first side surface and the first sidewall portion. A first reflective sheet is extended along an inner surface of the first receiving member and surrounds the first light source. The backlight assembly may further comprise a second receiving member, a second light source, and a second reflective sheet. A lamp reflector may be omitted, assemblability of the backlight assembly and the display device, and protection against heat, may be improved. | 01-01-2009 |
20090237589 | BACKLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND DISPLAY APPARATUS HAVING THE SAME - A backlight assembly includes a lamp assembly, a receiving container and a panel guiding frame. The lamp assembly includes a light source to generate light and a lamp cover to reflect the light. The receiving container includes a bottom and a sidewall. The sidewall includes a first sidewall portion facing the lamp cover and separated from the lamp cover by a first interval and a second sidewall portion separated from the lamp cover by a second interval narrower than the first interval. The panel guiding frame includes a first frame portion facing an end of the bottom and a second frame portion extended from the first frame portion along a side face of the second sidewall and having an opening corresponding to the first sidewall portion. Thus, the backlight assembly may have a reduced non-effective display area. | 09-24-2009 |
20090316345 | DISPLAY DEVICE AND CASE FOR THE SAME - A display device includes a panel assembly on which an image is formed, a cover member which comprises a front portion having a display window exposing at least a portion of a front side of the panel assembly and a side portion which is bent from the front portion, the cover member having one or more joining regions where a pair of end portions engage with and are joined to each other, the cover member comprising a first joining part and a second joining part which are formed at the pair of end portions, respectively, wherein at least one of the first joining part and the second joining part include a region stepped from a surface of the cover member, and at least a portion of the first joining part and the second joining part overlap each other, and an accommodating member which accommodates the panel assembly and is joined to the cover member. | 12-24-2009 |
20100007816 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY AND METHOD THEREOF - A liquid crystal display includes a light guide plate guiding light, light sources disposed adjacent to at least one side of the light guide plate, and a lower receptacle. The lower receptacle includes a bottom plate on which the light guide plate and the light sources are disposed, a lower receptacle side wall extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the bottom plate and from an edge of the bottom plate, and an upper plate extended from the lower receptacle side wall and substantially parallel to the bottom plate. The upper plate does not overlap the light guide plate in a plan view of the liquid crystal display. | 01-14-2010 |
20100067218 | Backlight Assembly, Display Apparatus Having The Same And Method Of Assembling The Same - A backlight assembly, a display apparatus having the backlight assembly, and a method of assembling the backlight assembly are disclosed for embodiments. For example, a backlight assembly may include a receiving container which includes a first receiving member that receives a lamp and a portion of a light guide plate and a second receiving member that receives a remaining portion of the light guide plate. A reflection sheet is disposed between the light guide plate and the receiving container and elongated to cover the lamp. An adhesive is disposed between the reflection sheet and the receiving container and includes a heat-bondable material to adhere the reflection sheet to the receiving container when heat is applied thereto. Accordingly, the reflection sheet may be prevented from being wrinkled due to heat generated from the lamp, thereby enhancing assemblability of the backlight assembly. | 03-18-2010 |
20130215647 | BACKLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING THE SAME - A backlight assembly includes a light guide plate (LGP) having a stepped portion formed at a corner of the LGP, an optical sheet disposed over the LGP and a receiving container receiving the LGP and the optical sheet. The receiving container includes a bottom plate, first through fourth sidewalls and a first LGP fixing portion. The second sidewall is adjacent to the first sidewall. The third sidewall faces the first sidewall. The fourth sidewall faces the second sidewall. The first through fourth sidewalls are extended upwardly from edge portions of the bottom plate. The first LGP fixing portion is formed at the first sidewall such that the LGP fixing portion corresponds to the stepped portion of the LGP. Therefore, a display device is easily assembled. Furthermore, a defilement that may occur during an assembling process may be reduced to enhance productivity. | 08-22-2013 |
20140176877 | BACKLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - Provided is a backlight assembly and a liquid crystal display including: a light source; a light guide plate; and a bottom chassis comprising an accommodating portion, a light source cover configured to accommodate the light source, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall, the accommodating portion comprising a first accommodating portion and a second accommodating portion detachably coupled with each other, wherein the light source cover is formed on a first edge of the first accommodating portion, the first sidewall is formed on a second edge of the first accommodating portion, and the second sidewall is formed on an edge of the second accommodating portion. | 06-26-2014 |
20140340934 | BACKLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING THE SAME - A backlight assembly includes a light guide plate (LGP) having a stepped portion formed at a corner of the LGP, an optical sheet disposed over the LGP and a receiving container receiving the LGP and the optical sheet. The receiving container includes a bottom plate, first through fourth sidewalls and a first LGP fixing portion. The second sidewall is adjacent to the first sidewall. The third sidewall faces the first sidewall. The fourth sidewall faces the second sidewall. The first through fourth sidewalls are extended upwardly from edge portions of the bottom plate. The first LGP fixing portion is formed at the first sidewall such that the LGP fixing portion corresponds to the stepped portion of the LGP. Therefore, a display device is easily assembled. Furthermore, a defilement that may occur during an assembling process may be reduced to enhance productivity. | 11-20-2014 |
