Heat dissipator for display apparatus and plasma display apparatus including the heat dissipator

A plasma display apparatus, comprising:

• a plasma display panel adapted to display images and including at least one device;
• a chassis member arranged on a surface of the plasma display panel and adapted to support the plasma display panel;
• a circuit unit arranged on a surface of the chassis member and adapted to drive the plasma display panel;
• at least one signal transmission member separated from the chassis member and adapted to transmit electrical signals between the plasma display panel and the circuit unit;
• and
• a thermal conductive supporter adapted to support the signal transmission member, the thermal conductive supporter including:
• a base portion of a thermal conductive material, and having a side surface adapted to contact the chassis member and another side surface adapted to contact the signal transmission member;
• and
• a recess portion arranged on the base portion and oriented toward the chassis member so that the at least one device does not contact the base portion, the recess portion being arranged in a vertical direction of the base portion to facilitate heat generated by a device mounted on the signal transmission member to move upward through a space between the recess portion and the device.
