A main body case 3 having opposing side walls 31 and 31 and other parts 32 and 32 being opened, and a bottom wall 30 having a relatively wide U-shape, and the main body case 3. And a back light unit 4 housed therein and an optical member 1 covering the back light unit 4 and mounted on both side walls 31 and 31 of the body case 3. The optical member 1 is placed on both side surfaces 31 and 31 of the main body case 3 in which the 4 is housed, and a frame-shaped reinforcement frame 6 whose outer circumference is joined at a corner portion, It is fixed by 7), The liquid crystal display device characterized by the above-mentioned.
A general liquid crystal display device includes an optical member composed of a liquid crystal display panel for displaying an image, a diffuser plate provided on the rear surface of the liquid crystal display panel and a light collecting sheet member, a backlight unit provided on the rear surface of the optical member, and the backlight unit. And a main body case for storing and supporting the metal, and a metal shield case for fixing the liquid crystal display panel.
However, as the liquid crystal display device becomes larger in size, the individual parts constituting the device also become larger, and the weight becomes heavier, resulting in mechanical twists and warpages in the parts and the assembly of the parts. The adverse effect on display quality was inevitable. Therefore, many proposals have been made to solve such a problem.
For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-23648 discloses a plurality of light source lamps such as cold cathode tubes arranged side by side in a main body case, and after the optical member is disposed in the opening, the display panel is placed on the optical member. The liquid crystal display device which fixed this display panel by the frame member divided into multiple parts, prevents a fall of a display panel, and prevents destruction, and reduces cost is described.
However, when a liquid crystal display panel becomes large, since individual components, such as an optical member and a backlight unit, also become large especially, it becomes difficult to raise the precision of a component at the time of manufacturing such a component, and therefore, it becomes difficult to manufacture a component with high dimensional precision, The yield of parts is worsened, or the assembly becomes difficult, resulting in a rise in costs. In addition, there have been cases where the dimensional error of the backlight unit and the liquid crystal display panel becomes remarkable and the liquid crystal display panel cannot be mechanically supported.
In addition, by the method of self-weight or support of the liquid crystal display panel or the optical member, warpage and distortion occur in the device assembly during manufacture or use, and it becomes impossible to uniformly illuminate the liquid crystal display panel, or to keep the external pressure (External) For example, when a large impact force is applied, the liquid crystal display panel may be damaged. Further, in the assembly, a gap also occurs between the parts, and dust, dust, and the like penetrate from the gap, which causes the display image to be hard to see. Moreover, since the brightness, color, etc. of the leaked light leaked to the outside in this gap are completely different from that of an image, there exists a problem that a person who sees an image produces a sense of incongruity and becomes dizzy. This leaked light was quite unobtrusive to the viewer of the image even in a few points.
Moreover, the liquid crystal display device described in Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 11-146305 is equipped with the frame which can respond easily to enlargement, and can be easily applied to the display panel of various dimensions, and displays the flat plate shape A panel and a frame supporting the display panel in a state of being coupled with the frame part of the display panel, wherein the frame is a horizontal frame coupled with the picture frames above and below the display panel, and a vertical frame combined with the picture frames at the left and right sides of the display panel. The horizontal frame and the vertical frame are coupled to each other via a corner member provided at a corner portion of the display panel.
However, in this liquid crystal display device, since the corner members are used in the engaging portions of the frames, extra parts are required in addition to the frame, and assembly and management thereof are cumbersome, and the shape of the corner members is complicated and cumbersome. It was. In addition, after assembling the frame using the horizontal frame and the vertical frame, the liquid crystal display panel is fixed to the frame with double-sided adhesive, which is cumbersome for bonding, assembling and maintenance work. It could not be fixed firmly.
In addition, in general liquid crystal display devices, as described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 11-160681, 11-305205, and the like, for example, a liquid crystal display panel and a backlight unit are fixed by a metal outer frame frame. have.

As shown in FIG. 22, since the outer frame 500 is formed in the shape of a frame having a perforation 510 in the center portion, the plate-like plate 520 shown in FIG. In the case of extraction molding by press working or the like, there is a problem that the portion 530 from which the window hole 510 is extracted becomes a large waste material, resulting in an increase in cost.
In addition, since the outer frame 500 has a cubic shape in a planar shape, and the whole is integrally formed, for example, as shown in FIG. 24, the inner frame 500 locks and fixes the outer frame 500 with screws 560. A gap 550 is required between the supporting frame 540 and the dimensional error absorbing. When the outer frame 500 is locked by fastening the screw 560 to the internal components, the screw locking portion is formed by the gap. As a result, distortion occurs in the entire outer frame, and the edge portion 570 of the window 510 is deformed up and down as shown in FIG. 25 to affect display quality of the liquid crystal display panel.
Thus, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems.
The first object of the present invention is to securely fix a component having a large shape and an increased weight with the enlargement of a display screen, thereby eliminating mechanical deformation such as twisting and distortion of the component and the component assembly.
