Abstract

A backlight unit 12 of the present invention includes a light source 18, a chassis 14, a power supply board 20, and a relay connector 21. The chassis 14 houses the light source 18. The power supply board 20 is arranged on a side of the chassis 14 opposite from the light source 18. The power supply board 20 is configured to supply drive power to the light source 18. The relay connectors 21 is mounted to the chassis 14 so as to be movable between a non-connected position at which the power supply board 20 is disconnected from the relay connector 21 and a connected position at which the power supply board 20 is connected to the relay connector 21 along a surface of the chassis 14. A proximity restriction boss 30 projects from the power supply board 20 so as to be in contact with the chassis 14 with the power supply board 20 being at the non-connected position or the connected position. The proximity restriction boss 30 restricts proximity of the power supply board 20 to the chassis 14.
