US 8,472,191 B2 · Image displaying apparatus, holding member thereof, and image displaying system

Abstract

An image displaying apparatus, which is excellent in heat radiation efficiency and has an excellent back design, includes a display panel for displaying an image; a heat generating member provided on a back side of the display panel; and a cabinet for covering the display panel and the heat generating member at least from the back side of the display panel. In the cabinet, an aperture is provided at a position facing the heat generating member, and an opening/closing unit enables switching between closing and opening of the aperture. In a state that the aperture is opened by the opening/closing unit and one part of a heat-transfer member is positioned on a side of the cabinet opposite to the display panel, the other part of the heat-transfer member extends through the aperture so that the heat-transfer member can thermally be connected to the heat generating member.
