Abstract
A display device includes a display module, a rear cover that covers the rear surface of the display module, a main circuit board placed in an internal space formed between the rear cover and the rear surface of the display module, flexible wiring members that mutually connects the display module and the main circuit board, and a male screw having a head exposed to the outside of the rear cover, the male screw passing through the rear cover and engaging a female screw formed in the main circuit board. The main circuit board is fixed to the rear cover with the male screw in a state in which the main circuit board is not fixed to the display module.
Claims5
A display device comprising:
- a display module;
- a cover that covers a rear surface of the display module;
- a main circuit board placed in an internal space formed between the cover and the rear surface of the display module;
- a flexible wiring member that mutually connects the display module and the main circuit board;
- an operational member having an operational part exposed to an outside of the cover, the operational member passing through the cover and engaging an engagement part provided at the main circuit board;
- and
- a tentative placement structural part disposed on the rear surface of the display module;
- wherein the main circuit board is fixed to the cover by the operational member in a state in which the main circuit board is not fixed to the display module;
- and
- wherein the tentative placement structural part restricts movement of the main circuit board with respect to the display module in directions other than a direction in which the main circuit board moves toward the cover.
A method of assembling a display device that includes
- a display module,
- a cover that covers a rear surface of the display module,
- a main circuit board placed in an internal space formed between the cover and the rear surface of the display module,
- a flexible wiring member that mutually connects the display module and the main circuit board,
- an operational member having an operational part exposed to an outside of the cover, the operational member passing through the cover and engaging an engagement part provided at the main circuit board, and
- a tentative placement structural part disposed on the rear surface of the display module;
- the method comprising the steps of:
- tentatively placing the main circuit board on the rear surface of the display module;
- mutually connecting the display module and the main circuit board with the flexible wiring member;
- attaching the cover to the rear surface of the display module;
- and
- operating the operational part from the outside of the cover to draw the main circuit board toward the cover and fix the main circuit board with the operational member;
- and
- restricting movement of the main circuit board with respect to the display module, using the tentative placement structural part, in directions other than a direction in which the main circuit board moves toward the cover.
