Liquid crystal display device

A liquid crystal display device, comprising:

• a liquid crystal panel;
• and
• a light emitting diode substrate, which is disposed on a rear surface side of the liquid crystal panel and comprises:
• a plurality of light emitting diode elements disposed along a longitudinal direction;
• a plurality of lenses each including a plurality of legs, each of the lenses being disposed on the liquid crystal panel side of a respective one of the plurality of light emitting diode elements;
• and
• a plurality electrodes, formed on a surface of the light emitting diode substrate with a gap between adjacent ones of the electrodes, and having a surface facing the liquid crystal display panel, wherein each of the plurality of light emitting diode elements is electrically connected to two adjacent ones of the plurality of electrodes and extends across the gap between the two adjacent electrodes,
• wherein each of the plurality of legs for fixing each of the lenses to the light emitting diode substrate is mounted directly to, and completely disposed directly above only one of the adjacent two electrodes to which the light emitting diode element for the lens is connected so that all parts of an image of the leg projected onto the light emitting diode substrate fall on the surface facing the liquid crystal panel of the electrode above which the leg is disposed, and the lenses respectively are fixed directly to the electrodes through intermediate layers which are bonding layers or resist layers formed on the surface of the electrode, and the thicknesses of the intermediate layers are all uniform.
