## Abstract

A liquid crystal device including a liquid crystal panel and a border is disclosed. The border includes a sidewall, a packing member bent to extent from a top of the sidewall, a carrying member vertically connected with the sidewall, and the carrying member is parallel to the packing member to form a gap. The liquid crystal panel includes a CF substrate and a TFT substrate, and a dimension of the TFT substrate is larger than the dimension of the CF substrate. The TFT substrate is arranged opposite to the CF substrate, and ends of the TFT substrate and the CF substrate form a stair. The stair is inserted into the gap to align a surface of the liquid crystal panel with the surface of the packing member. In this way, the structure of the LCD is simplified.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A liquid crystal device (LCD), comprising:
a liquid crystal panel and a border, the border comprises a sidewall, a packing member bent to extent from a top of the sidewall, a carrying member vertically connected with the sidewall, and the carrying member is parallel to the packing member to form a gap;
the liquid crystal panel comprises a CF substrate and a TFT substrate, a dimension of the TFT substrate is larger than the dimension of the CF substrate, the TFT substrate is arranged opposite to the CF substrate, and ends of the TFT substrate and the CF substrate form a stair; and
wherein the stair is inserted into the gap to align a surface of the liquid crystal panel with the surface of the packing member.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The LCD as claimed in claim 1, wherein ends of the TFT substrate comprises a plurality of clasping members, reversing slopes are formed at two ends of the clasping member, and wherein a clasping slot having a shell nosing is formed between two adjacent clasping members.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The LCD as claimed in claim 2, wherein the border further comprises clasping elastic sheets arranged within the gap, the clasping elastic sheet comprises:
a first slope, and a second slope respectively extending from the sidewall into the gap, and the first slope and the second slope cooperatively define a clasping slot for engaging with the clasping member; and
guiding members respectively formed at two ends of the first slope and the second slope such that the clasping member slides into the clasping slot or the clasping member abuts against the reversing slope and slides into the clasping slot.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The LCD as claimed in claim 1, wherein the LCD further comprises a back housing having a bottom plate and a supporting member bent to extend from the bottom plate, and the bottom plate, the supporting member, and the comparing component cooperatively define a receiving space.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The LCD as claimed in claim 4, wherein the LCD further comprises at least one optical component to be arranged within the receiving space.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The LCD as claimed in claim 5, wherein the border further comprises a fixing member extending from the carrying member along a vertical direction, and the fixing member is parallel to the sidewall and forms a slot to be clasped by the supporting member.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The LCD as claimed in claim 1, wherein the packing member comprises a guiding slope for controlling a direction of excessive glue of the TFT substrate when the carrying member engages with the packing member.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The LCD as claimed in claim 1, wherein two ends of the sidewall respectively comprise vertically extended side plates, and the side plates, the packing member, and the carrying member are vertically connected.

### Claim 9

A border, comprising:
a sidewall;
a packing member bent to extent from an end of the sidewall;
