Patent ID: 7728855

Claim:
A liquid crystal display apparatus comprising: a frame made of resin, the frame having a rectangular shape, the frame having a flange extending across four side portions thereof, and the flange having through-holes; a metallic edge frame member surrounding a liquid crystal panel for a television receiver, the metallic edge frame member sandwiching the liquid crystal panel with the frame, and a metallic backboard member made thicker than the metallic edge frame member and equipped with a circuit board, the metallic backboard member capable of being screw-fitted to the frame, wherein the metallic edge frame member and the metallic backboard member are made electrically conductive by an earth fitting which is individually screw-fitted thereto, wherein the metallic edge frame member is individually screw-Pitted to the flange on both sides of two side portions with respect to one opposite side direction of the frame, wherein the metallic backboard member has mounting pieces only on both sides of the metallic backboard member in one opposite side direction thereof, wherein the mounting pieces are individually screw-fitted to the flange on both sides of two side portions with respect to the other opposite direction of the frame, and the liquid crystal display apparatus further comprising: a relay board connecting the circuit board to an electrode of the liquid crystal panel, the relay board disposed along one side of the metallic backboard member in the one opposite side direction thereof, wherein first projection pieces are provided consecutively to the metallic edge frame member, wherein second projection pieces are provided consecutively to the other side of the metallic backboard member in the one opposite side direction thereof, wherein the first and second projection pieces are disposed on both sides sandwiching identical points of the flange, instead of omitting both the earth fitting and a mounting screw fitting the earth fitting to both the metallic edge frame member and the metallic backboard member, wherein screws made of headed screws inserted through screw insertion holes opened in the first projection pieces and the though-holes are screwed into screw holes formed on the second projection pieces, wherein the metallic edge frame member and the metallic backboard member are fastened by the screws onto the flange to be screw-fitted to the flange by the screws, and wherein the respective first and second projection pieces and the screws form earth conductive path that make the metallic edge frame member electrically conductive to the metallic backboard member.
