Patent ID: 10302988

Abstract:
The display apparatus includes an optical sheet provided between a display panel and direct type light sources, and an inner chassis (support body) 4 having a frame-shape which supports the back surface of peripheral edge parts of the display panel. A light shielding member is provided over an entire periphery of the display panel at the back side of the peripheral edge part thereof. An outer frame part of the light shielding member is sandwiched between the display panel and the inner chassis, and an inner frame part of the light shielding member is sandwiched between the display panel and the optical sheet. Light passing through the optical sheet is shielded by the light shielding member even when trying to be leaked to an outside from the polarizing plate, such that the light is not leaked due to being shielded by the light shielding member. Therefore, the light is prevented from entering the peripheral edge part of the display panel, and an occurrence of light leakage is prevented.
