Abstract

A display device in the present disclosure includes a display unit, a substrate unit and a casing. The substrate unit includes a substrate having a connector, and a holder to hold the substrate. The casing that houses the display unit and the substrate unit includes a first opening that exposes the display unit, and a second opening that exposes the connector. The substrate unit is held by at least one of a display unit lower surface and the casing, and the holder is movable in a vertical direction relative to the display unit lower surface. A clearance is present between the holder and the display unit lower surface.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A display device, comprising:
a display unit;
a substrate unit comprising a substrate having a connector, and a holder to hold the substrate; and
a casing that houses the display unit and the substrate unit, the casing comprising a first opening that exposes the display unit, and a second opening that exposes the connector; wherein
the substrate unit is held by at least one of a display unit lower surface and the casing, and the holder is movable in a vertical direction relative to the display unit lower surface, and
a clearance is present between the holder and the display unit lower surface.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display unit comprises a backlight, a display panel located on a backlight upper surface, and a cover located on a display panel upper surface, and the cover is exposed in the first opening.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the display unit is fixed to the casing by an adhesive material.

4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the display unit comprises a backlight, a display panel located on a backlight upper surface, and a cover located on a display panel upper surface, and
the display unit is fixed to the casing by an adhesive material located on an outer peripheral part of a cover lower surface and a backlight lower surface.

5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the display unit comprises a backlight, a display panel located on a backlight upper surface, and a cover located on a display panel upper surface, and
the display unit is fixed to the casing by an adhesive material located on a backlight lower surface.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a screw,

wherein
the casing further comprises a through hole adjacent to the second opening, the through hole configured to permit insertion of the screw,
the holder comprises a screw hole exposed from the through hole, the screw hole configured to engage with the screw, and
the substrate unit is secured to the casing by the screw that engages with the screw hole from an outside of the casing with the through hole interposed therebetween, and a dimension of the clearance is adjustable by rotation of the screw.

7. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the substrate further comprises a conductor part,
the casing is composed of metal, and
the substrate is in contact with the casing with the conductor part interposed therebetween.

8. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein an elastic member is disposed in the clearance.
