Abstract
A Printed Circuit Board (PCB) mounting structure having an improved structure for improving assemblability of a product, and a display apparatus including the PCB mounting structure. The PCB mounting structure includes a mounting member provided on the PCB and a mounting portion provided on a chassis for mounting the PCB to the chassis without using screws.
Claims17
A Printed Circuit Board (PCB) mounting structure, comprising:
- a chassis on which a plurality of board resting portions are disposed;
- a PCB resting on the plurality of board resting portions and including an installation hole;
- a mounting portion disposed on a respective board resting portion of the plurality of board resting portions;
- and
- a mounting member including a support portion supported on the PCB, and a lead protruding from the support portion and inserted in the installation hole so that the mounting member is thereby fixed on the PCB,
- wherein the mounting member is removably coupleable with the mounting portion by a sliding movement of the PCB,
- wherein the mounting portion is bonded on the respective board resting portion and electrically connected to the respective board resting portion,
- wherein the mounting portion comprises a neck connected to the respective board resting portion, and a head connected to the neck and having a cross-sectional area wider than a cross-sectional area of the neck,
- wherein the mounting member and the mounting portion are configured so that, when the mounting member is coupled with the mounting portion, the mounting member is around the neck and below the head, and
- wherein the chassis, the respective board resting portion, the mounting portion and the mounting member are each made of a conductive material, and at least one of the support portion and the lead is bonded to the PCB and electrically connected to the PCB, so that, when the mounting member is coupled with the mounting portion, Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) grounding occurs between the PCB and the chassis through the respective board resting portion, the mounting portion and the mounting member.
