Touch-type liquid crystal display apparatus with built-in contact

A touch-type liquid crystal display apparatus with a built-in contact, comprising:

• first and second substrates which are arranged to face each other;
• liquid crystal which is sandwiched between the first substrate and the second substrate;
• at least one opposed electrode which is provided on an opposing surface of the second substrate facing the first substrate;
• a plurality of pixel electrodes which is provided on the first substrate to face the opposed electrode, so that a plurality of pixels are formed between the pixel electrodes and the opposed electrode;
• a contact point protrusion which is formed on the opposing surface of the second substrate at a first pixel of the plurality of pixels;
• a pillar-shaped spacer which is formed on the opposing surface of the second substrate at a second pixel of the plurality of pixels, the pillar-shaped spacer being made of the same material as that of the contact point protrusion;
• a contact point region which is provided on the first substrate, wherein the contact point region faces the contact point protrusion;
• and
• a base region which is provided on the first substrate, wherein the base region faces the pillar-shaped spacer and the base region has a height higher than the contact point region,
• wherein a first space is located between the opposed electrode and each of the pixel electrodes and a second space shorter than the first space is located between a front end of the contact point protrusion of the second substrate and the contact point region of the first substrate, by bringing a front end of the pillar-shaped spacer of the second substrate into contact with a front end of the base region of the first substrate.
