Abstract:
1. An engaging structure between a housing and an inflatable element, applicable to a display device, the engaging structure comprising: a housing formed as a casing of the display device, the housing having a window at a first side where a display screen of the display device is installed and a plurality of second sides, in which at least one of the second sides that is adjacent to the display screen is formed with at least an assembly hole; and an inflatable element to be assembled to the second sides of the housing such that the display screen is exposed, the inflatable element comprising: a main body having a side of a recessed configuration forming an accommodating space sized to accommodate the second sides of the housing; at least a connecting portion provided on the main body, corresponding in position to the accommodating space, and formed by an extension of the main body, wherein each said connecting portion corresponds in position to a said assembly hole and has an interior in communication with an interior of the main body; wherein each said connecting portion has a connected end connected to the main body and a free end and is sequentially divided, in a direction from the connected end to the free end, into a base part and a terminal part, both of which correspond in position to a said assembly hole; when the housing has been assembled to the accommodating space, and the inflatable element is not inflated, each said terminal part can pass through the corresponding assembly hole and thus enter the housing; a fluid inlet/outlet portion provided on the main body; wherein, when the fluid has been injected into the inflatable element through the fluid inlet/outlet portion such that the inflatable element is fully inflated, each said base part is pressed against a periphery of the corresponding assembly hole, and each said terminal part is also inflated and thus stuck in the housing; and at least a resilient member, each said resilient member being fitted in a said terminal part and corresponding in position to a said assembly hole, each said resilient member being unable to pass through the corresponding assembly hole when not subjected to an external force, each said resilient member passing through the corresponding assembly hole when subjected to and deformed by an external force wherein when the inflatable element has been assembled to the housing, and the fluid inlet/outlet portion is opened, a fluid can be injected into or discharged from the main body and the at least a connecting portion through the fluid inlet/outlet portion; and when the fluid inlet/outlet portion is closed, the fluid cannot freely enter or exit the main body or the at least a connecting portion.
