Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A display device according to the present invention includes a display panel (liquid crystal panel); a backlight located on a rear surface of the display panel; a circuit board located on a rear surface of the backlight; flexible wiring located between a first connecting side that is one side of the display panel and a second connecting side that is one side of the circuit board to bridge over one side of the backlight, the flexible wiring connecting the display panel and the circuit board to each other; and a support a support that supports the display panel or the circuit board by regulating at least one of a movement, on the first connecting side, toward at least a side opposite to the second connecting side and a movement, on the second connecting side, toward at least a side opposite to the first connecting side.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A display device comprising: a display panel; a backlight located on a rear surface of said display panel; a circuit board located on a rear surface of said backlight; flexible wiring located between a first connecting side that is one side of said display panel and a second connecting side that is one side of said circuit board to bridge over one side of said backlight, said flexible wiring electrically connecting said display panel and said circuit board to each other; a support that supports said display panel or said circuit board by regulating at least one of a movement, on said first connecting side, toward at least a side opposite to said second connecting side and a movement, on said second connecting side, toward at least a side opposite to said first connecting side; and a mold frame that houses said backlight, wherein said support includes a first support integral with said mold frame on said second-connecting-side side, and an end of said backlight on said one side and an end of said circuit board on said second connecting side are fitted between said first support and a body of said mold frame. 2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein said support includes a second support integral with said mold frame on said first-connecting-side side, and an end of said display panel on said first connecting side is fitted between said second support and a body of said mold frame. 3. A display device comprising: a display panel; a backlight located on a rear surface of said display panel; a circuit board located on a rear surface of said backlight; flexible wiring located between a first connecting side that is one side of said display panel and a second connecting side that is one side of said circuit board to bridge over one side of said backlight, said flexible wiring electrically connecting said display panel and said circuit board to each other; a support that supports said display panel or said circuit board by regulating at least one of a movement, on said first connecting side, toward at least a side opposite to said second connecting side and a movement, on said second connecting side, toward at least a side opposite to said first connecting side; and a housing that houses said display panel, said backlight, said circuit board, and said flexible wiring, wherein said support includes a first support integral with said housing on said second-connecting-side side. 4. The display device according to claim 3 , wherein said support includes a second support integral with said housing on said first-connecting-side side.
