Abstract

A display device is disclosed. The disclosed display device has an excellent appearance through prevention of outward exposure of wirings. The display device is also configured to easily outwardly dissipate heat generated from various electronic elements included in the display device.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A display device comprising:
a display body comprising a display module;
a stand for supporting the display body;
a connecting assembly for mounting the display body to the stand;
a base connected to a bottom portion of the stand and to support the stand against an installation surface on which the stand is installed;
a chamber for receiving electric wires electrically connected to the display module; and
a plurality of heat dissipation fins formed at an inner surface of the stand, to extend inwardly of the chamber.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the stand is further provided with guides formed at opposite lateral wall portions of the stand, to guide the connecting assembly when the display body moves vertically with respect to the stand.

3. The display device according to claim 2 , wherein each of the guides extends through the stand in a thickness direction of the stand.

4. The display device according to claim 2 , wherein each of the guides comprises an elongated groove formed at the stand to extend to a predetermined depth in a thickness direction of the stand, and at least one heat dissipation hole extending through the elongated groove in the thickness direction of the stand.

5. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the stand is further provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes formed through a rear wall portion of the stand in a thickness direction of the stand.

6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the stand comprises an arc portion and a flat portion.

7. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting assembly comprises a winding spring unit for adjusting a vertical movement of the display body by frictional force of the stand and complementary resiliances of a plurality of winding springs.

8. The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the connecting assembly comprises a bracket fixedly mounted to the display body, a front slider provided with guide protrusions fitted in guides formed at the stand, a rear sliding wheel, which moves vertically while applying frictional force to the stand, two winding springs of the plurality of winding springs provided in the sliding wheel while being wound in opposite winding directions, and a slider frame for connecting the rear sliding wheel and the front slider while being rotatable with respect to the bracket.

9. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the stand comprises a cylindrical portion.

10. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting assembly comprises a gas spring unit for adjusting a vertical movement of the display body by a gas pressure, and the gas spring unit comprises a cylinder, in which a gas is contained, and a piston rod, which moves vertically in a telescopic manner in the cylinder.

11. The display device according to claim 10 , wherein the connecting assembly further comprises a bracket fixedly mounted to the display body, a load transmitter connected to an upper end of the piston rod such that the load transmitter is vertically movable together with the bracket, and at least one support plate provided at a lateral surface of the load transmitter, to be interposed between fixing portions of the bracket.

12. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a support die coupled to a bottom portion of the base,
wherein the support die comprises a heat transfer boss for transferring, to a surface of the support die, heat generated from a heat source, which comprises the power supply unit disposed within the base.

13. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting assembly enables the display body to be swivelable and vertically movable with respect to the stand.

14. The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a power supply unit for supplying electric power to the display module,
wherein the power supply unit is disposed within the base, and is electrically connected to the display module via one of the electric wires extending through the stand.

15. A display device comprising:
a display body comprising a display module;
a stand for supporting the display body;
a connecting assembly for mounting the display body to the stand;
a base connected to a bottom portion of the stand and to support the stand against an installation surface on which the stand is installed;
a chamber for receiving electric wires electrically connected to the display module; and
guides formed at opposite lateral wall portion of the stand, to guide the connecting assembly when the display body moves vertically with respect to the stand,
wherein each of the guides comprises an elongated groove formed at the stand to extend to a predetermined depth in a thickness direction of the stand, and at least one heat dissipation hole extending through the elongated groove in the thickness direction of the stand.

16. The display device according to claim 15 , wherein the connecting assembly enables the display body to be swivelable and vertically movable with respect to the stand.

17. The display device according to claim 15 , further comprising:
a power supply unit for supplying electric power to the display module,
wherein the power supply unit is disposed within the base, and is electrically connected to the display module via one of the electric wires extending through the stand.

18. A display device comprising:
a display body comprising a display module;
a stand for supporting the display body;
a connecting assembly for mounting the display body to the stand;
a base connected to a bottom portion of the stand and to support the stand against an installation surface on which the stand is installed;
a chamber for receiving electric wires electrically connected to the display module; and
guides formed at opposite lateral wall portion of the stand, to guide the connecting assembly when the display body moves vertically with respect to the stand,
wherein each of the guides comprises a slot formed at the stand to extend through the stand in a thickness direction of the stand.

19. The display device according to claim 18 , wherein the connecting assembly enables the display body to be swivelable and vertically movable with respect to the stand.

20. The display device according to claim 18 , further comprising:
a power supply unit for supplying electric power to the display module,
wherein the power supply unit is disposed within the base, and is electrically connected to the display module via one of the electric wires extending through the stand.
