Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a display apparatus that reflects light emitted from a light source to a display panel side through a reflecting member without having a configuration corresponding to a light guide plate, in which light emitted from a light source substantially uniformly reaches a reflecting member, a corner member may be disposed on the corner side of the cover member where the light source module is not disposed so that the light incident on the corner side is reflected toward the display panel side to irradiate light to the display panel side.
Claims19
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel comprising a pair of first sides and a pair of second sides;
- a cover configured to support the display panel;
- a light source module comprising a light source and extending along at least one of the pair of first sides of the display panel, said light source module being disposed adjacent to at least one of the pair of first sides;
- a first reflecting member comprising a reflective surface configured to reflect light emitted from the light source module toward the display panel;
- a second reflecting member comprising a reflective surface configured to reflect the light emitted from the light source module toward the first reflecting member;
- and
- at least one corner members comprising a reflective surface disposed between the pair of second sides and one end of the light source module in longitudinal direction.

A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel configured to display an image thereon;
- a chassis disposed in a front direction of the display panel;
- a cover configured to support the display panel, and configured to be coupled with a rear portion of the chassis, the cover including a coupling portion extending forward from both ends of the cover member and configured to be coupled with the chassis, and an inclined portion extending backward from the coupling portion and inclined with respect to the coupling portion;
- a light source module comprising a light source disposed behind the display panel, and disposed along a side direction of the display panel;
- and
- a corner member comprising a reflective surface disposed in a corner area between the coupling portion, the inclined portion, and outer portions of both ends of the light source module and configured to reflect light generated from the light source module,
- wherein the cover further comprises a resting surface extending from one edge of at least one of the coupling portion and the inclined portion, and formed in the corner area, and the corner member is configured to be hooked to the resting surface.

A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel configured to display an image thereon;
- a printed circuit board (PCB) electrically connected to the display panel;
- a cover disposed behind the display panel, and configured to support the display panel;
- a light source module comprising a light source disposed between the display panel and the cover, and arranged toward the cover;
- a first reflecting member comprising a reflective surface disposed in a front direction from the cover, and configured to reflect light emitted from the light source module toward the display panel;
- a second reflecting member comprising a reflective surface disposed between the light source module and the first reflecting member, and configured to reflect light emitted from the light source module toward the first reflecting member so that the light reflected by the second reflecting member arrives at the first reflecting member;
- a corner member comprising a reflective surface disposed in a corner area formed between the outer portions of both ends of the second reflecting member and the inner portions of both corners of the cover, and configured to guide a position of the PCB such that the PCB is positioned below the display panel.
