The display device may include a display panel and cover. A first cover may be configured to be connected to the display panel and a second cover may be connected to the first cover to cover the display panel. The first cover and the second cover may cover a back side of the display panel. A plurality of first holders may be disposed on the first cover and a plurality of second holders may be disposed on the second cover corresponding to the plurality of first holders to couple the second cover to the first cover. The first cover may include a first frame and a second frame connected to each other. Distal ends of the first and second frames may have prescribed shapes configured to couple to each other to form a low profile cover for the display device. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A display device comprising: a display panel; a first cover at a rear of the display panel; a second cover at a rear of the first cover; a plurality of first holders disposed on the first cover apart from each other by a prescribed distance; and a plurality of second holders disposed on the second cover corresponding to the plurality of first holders, wherein the plurality of first holders on the first cover are coupled to the plurality of second holders on the second cover, wherein the plurality of first holders includes a connecting portion having an elongated opening, wherein the plurality of second holders includes a body elongated in a lengthwise direction of the opening and the body has a circular section such that the body is inserted into the elongated opening, wherein a width of the circular section of the body is greater than a width of the opening, wherein the first cover includes an oval hole near the first holder, and wherein the first holder includes a neck that extends from the connecting portion and is inserted into the oval hole, and a head formed on the neck and positioned to an outside of the oval hole. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein the opening of the connecting portion is formed to be elastic. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The display device of claim 2, wherein the first cover includes at least one first frame and at least one second frame, the at least one first frame having a connecting surface that is recessed at a distal end of the first frame and extending in a lengthwise direction of the first frame, and the at least one second frame having a locking rib that extends from a distal end of the second frame in a lengthwise direction of the second frame, the locking rib having a shape that corresponds to a shape of the connecting surface, wherein the locking rib on the second frame is configured to make surface contact with the connecting surface on the first frame. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The display device of claim 3, wherein the connecting surface is recessed a prescribed depth on an outer surface of the first frame, and the locking rib is provided over the recessed connecting surface to extend from the second frame in the lengthwise direction of the first frame. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The display device of claim 4, wherein the first frame includes a locking groove provided at a distal end of the connecting surface, the locking groove being recessed further into the first frame than the connecting surface, and the second frame includes a locking protrusion provided at a distal end of the locking rib and having a shape corresponding to a shape of the locking groove and configured to be inserted into the locking groove. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The display device of claim 2, wherein the body has various widths in an inserting direction of the body, and wherein at least one of the various widths is greater than a width of the elongated opening. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein the first cover supports the display panel. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein the first cover has a plate which overlaps a back side of the display panel. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The display device of claim 8, wherein the plurality of first holders are disposed on the plate. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The display device of claim 9, wherein the plurality of second holders are disposed on the second cover to extend toward a corresponding one of the plurality of first holders, the second cover being a back cover that is coupled using the second holders to cover the back side of the display panel. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein a width of the neck is smaller than a width of the oval hole, and wherein a width of the head is greater than the width of the oval hole.
