Abstract

A display device includes a liquid crystal module to display an image at a front surface thereof, a cover to encase at least a portion of the liquid crystal module, and at least one fastening unit to couple the cover to the liquid crystal module, wherein the fastening unit is provided at a rear surface of the liquid crystal module.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A display device comprising:
a display configured to display images; a non-metallic cover coupled to a first side of the display and forming a lower exterior portion of the display device; a metallic cover coupled to a second side of the display and forming an upper exterior portion of the display device.

2 . The display of claim 1 , wherein non-metallic cover at least partially overlaps the metallic cover.

3 . The display of claim 1 , wherein the non-metallic cover has an opening and wherein the metallic cover covers the opening of the non-metallic cover.

4 . The display of claim 3 , wherein the opening has a substantially rectangular shape.

5 . The display of claim 1 , wherein display comprises:
a liquid crystal display panel configured to display the images; and a backlight configured to supply light to the liquid crystal display panel.

6 . The display of claim 5 , further comprising:
a chassis configured to support the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight.

7 . The display of claim 6 , wherein the chassis entirely covers the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight.

8 . The display of claim 6 , wherein the metallic cover and the non-metallic cover are coupled to the chassis.

9 . The display of claim 8 , wherein the metallic cover and the non-metallic cover are covering a rear side of the chassis.

10 . A display device comprising:
a liquid crystal display panel configured to display images; a backlight configured to supply light to the liquid crystal display panel; and a cover covering the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight, wherein the cover comprises a non-metallic cover forming a lower exterior portion of the display device and a metallic cover forming an upper exterior portion of the display device, and wherein the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight are disposed within an inner side of the metallic cover and the non-metallic cover.

11 . The display of claim 10 , further comprising:
a chassis configured to support the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight.

12 . The display of claim 11 , wherein the chassis entirely covers the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight.

13 . The display of claim 11 , wherein the metallic cover and the non-metallic cover are coupled to the chassis.

14 . The display of claim 13 , wherein the metallic cover and the non-metallic cover are covering a rear side of the chassis.

15 . A display device comprising:
a liquid crystal display panel configured to display images; a backlight configured to supply light to the liquid crystal display panel; a chassis configured to support the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight, and a cover covering the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight and the chassis, wherein the cover comprises a non-metallic cover forming a lower exterior portion of the display device and a metallic cover forming an upper exterior portion of the display device, and wherein the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight are disposed within an inner side of the metallic cover and the non-metallic cover.

16 . The display of claim 15 , wherein the chassis entirely covers the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight.
