Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display apparatus comprising: a liquid crystal display panel having a predetermined number of cells which are arranged in a matrix shape, wherein each cell transmits predetermined colored light corresponding to a voltage applied thereto; at least one cold cathode tube that emits light to illuminate the liquid crystal display panel from a rear face side thereof; a frame that has a bottom and at least one hooking hole formed on the bottom and supports the liquid crystal display panel and the cold cathode tube; and at least one tube fixing member which is attached to the frame so as to fix the cold cathode tube on the frame by holding the cold cathode tube between the tube fixing member and the frame, wherein the tube fixing member has at least one tube pressing portion that presses the cold cathode tube toward the bottom of the frame and a pair of hooking protrusions that is hooked with edges of the hooking hole formed on the bottom of the frame; and a protective barrier formed on a rear face of the bottom of the frame to protrude outward so as to interrupt touch fingers of a worker to the hooking protrusions, thereby maintaining a hooking state of the hooking protrusions and the edges of the hooking hole.
