The display device of the present disclosure includes: a display panel; a module cover disposed at a rear of the display panel; a back cover disposed at the rear of the module cover and coupled to the module cover; a board coupled to the module cover at a position between the module cover and the back cover, and having a plurality of input/output units; and a bracket adjacent to the plurality of input/output units and covering a portion of the board, wherein an end of the back cover is adjacent to the bracket. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A display device comprising: a display panel; a module cover disposed at a rear of the display panel; a back cover disposed at a rear of the module cover and coupled to the module cover; a board coupled to the module cover at a position between the module cover and the back cover, and having a plurality of input/output units; and a bracket adjacent to the plurality of input/output units and covering a portion of the board, wherein an end of the back cover is adjacent to the bracket, wherein the bracket comprises: a first bracket covering at least a portion of a first input/output unit among the plurality of input/output units; a second bracket covering at least a portion of a second input/output unit among the plurality of input/output units; and a bridge connecting the first bracket and the second bracket, wherein the bridge comprises: a first bridge having one side coupled to the first bracket, and another side coupled to the second bracket; a second bridge spaced apart from the first bridge, and having one side coupled to the first bracket and another side coupled to the second bracket; and a pair of stoppers disposed between the first bridge and the second bridge, and coupled to the first bracket and the second bracket, respectively, wherein each end portions of the pair of stoppers comprise a first contact portion and a second contact portion, and wherein the first contact portion and the second contact portion are spaced apart from each other. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein a portion of the back cover overlaps with the bracket in a front-rear direction of the display panel. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein a portion of the back cover is bent so that a surface of the back cover facing the bracket is curvedly formed. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of input/output units is arranged in at least one of an up-down direction of the display panel and a left-right direction of the display panel. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The display device of claim 4, wherein the first input/output unit is disposed adjacent to and along a first edge of the board, and wherein the second input/output unit is disposed adjacent to and along a second edge of the board, the second edge being adjacent to the first edge of the board. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The display device of claim 5, wherein the bridge is disposed adjacent to a corner area at which the first and second edges of the board meet. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The display device of claim 6, wherein at least a portion of the first bridge and at least a portion of the second bridge are formed to be curved, and wherein each of the first bridge and the second bridge includes an elastic material, and the second bracket is rotatable with respect to the first bracket in a direction towards or away from the second edge of the board. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The display device of claim 7, wherein while the pair of stoppers are spaced apart from each other, as the second bracket is rotated with respect to the first bracket in the direction away from the second edge of the board, the pair of stoppers are gradually moved closer to each other to come into contact with each other. ### Claim 9 (depends on 5) The display device of claim 5, wherein a connector having one side that contacts the board and another side coupled to a metal plate is provided for reducing Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) noise, and wherein the board has a hole into which the connector is inserted. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The display device of claim 9, wherein the hole comprises: a plurality of holes spaced apart from each other, wherein the plurality of holes comprise: a first hole passing through a front surface and a rear surface of the board from an inside of the board; and a second hole passing through the front surface and the rear surface of the board from a circumferential surface of the board, wherein the bracket further comprises: a protrusion protruding toward the second hole, and providing a space provided along with the circumferential surface of the board. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The display device of claim 10, wherein the bracket further comprises: a supporter protruding toward the board to support the board, and disposed opposite to one side of the connector that contacts the board. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The display device of claim 1, further comprising: a latch disposed at a side portion of the back cover, and configured to connect the module cover and the back cover. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The display device of claim 12, wherein the latch comprises: a first part configured to receive a first inner surface of the module cover therein, a second part configured to receive a second inner surface of the module cover therein, and a third part disposed between the first part and the second part, wherein a protrusion of the back cover is inserted into the third part of the latch.
