Abstract
A display apparatus includes a display panel; a reflective sheet on a rear side of the display panel and configured to reflect light toward the display panel; a rear chassis configured to support the reflective sheet on a rear side of the reflective sheet, the rear chassis including a fixing hole; and a fastener configured to secure the reflective sheet to the rear chassis; wherein the fastener includes: an insertion portion configured to penetrate the reflective sheet and to be inserted into the fixing hole; and a bending portion bent at a first end of the insertion portion to prevent the insertion portion from being withdrawn from the fixing hole.
Claims20
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel;
- a reflective sheet on a rear side of the display panel and configured to reflect light toward the display panel;
- a rear chassis configured to support the reflective sheet on a rear side of the reflective sheet, the rear chassis comprising a fixing hole;
- and
- a fastener configured to secure the reflective sheet to the rear chassis;
- wherein the fastener comprises:
- an insertion portion configured to penetrate the reflective sheet and to be inserted into the fixing hole;
- and
- a bending portion bent at a first end of the insertion portion to prevent the insertion portion from being withdrawn from the fixing hole,
- wherein a gap exists between the insertion portion and an inner edge of the fixing hole, and
- wherein the gap is configured to allow the insertion portion to move within the fixing hole when the reflective sheet contracts or expands.
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel;
- a reflective sheet on a rear side of the display panel;
- a rear chassis supporting a rear side of the reflective sheet, the rear chassis comprising a pair of fixing holes comprising a first fixing hole and a second fixing hole;
- and
- a fastener configured to secure the reflective sheet to the rear chassis, the fastener comprising:
- a first insertion portion penetrating the reflective sheet and inserted into the first fixing hole;
- a second insertion portion penetrating the reflective sheet inserted into the second fixing hole;
- a first bending portion bent at a first end of the first insertion portion;
- and
- a second bending portion bent at a first end of the second insertion portion,
- wherein a first gap exists between the first insertion portion and an inner edge of the first fixing hole,
- wherein a second gap exists between the second insertion portion and an inner edge of the second fixing hole, and
- wherein the first gap and the second gap are configured to allow the first insertion portion and the second insertion portion to respectively move within the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole when the reflective sheet contracts or expands.
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel;
- a light source configured to supply light to the display panel;
- a reflective sheet on a rear side of the display panel and the light source, the reflective sheet comprising:
- a seating portion, wherein the light source is seated on the seating portion;
- and
- an inclined portion at least partially surrounding the seating portion, wherein the inclined portion is inclined forwardly relative to the seating portion;
- a rear chassis supporting a rear side of the reflective sheet, the rear chassis comprising a plurality of pairs of fixing holes;
- and
- a plurality of fasteners respectively corresponding to the plurality of pairs of fixing holes, wherein the plurality of fasteners are configured to secure the reflective sheet to the rear chassis,
- wherein each of the plurality of pairs of fixing holes comprises a first fixing hole and a second fixing hole,
- wherein each of the plurality of fasteners comprises:
- a first insertion portion penetrating the reflective sheet and inserted into the first fixing hole of the pair of fixing holes corresponding to the fastener;
- a second insertion portion penetrating the reflective sheet inserted into the second fixing hole of the pair of fixing holes corresponding to the fastener;
- a first bending portion bent at a first end of the first insertion portion;
- and
- a second bending portion bent at a first end of the second insertion portion, and
- wherein, for each fastener of the plurality of fasteners and the pair of fixing holes corresponding to the fastener, a first gap exists between the first insertion portion and an inner edge of the first fixing hole, a second gap exists between the second insertion portion and an inner edge of the second fixing hole, and the first gap and the second gap are configured to allow the first insertion portion and the second insertion portion to respectively move within the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole when the reflective sheet contracts or expands.
