Patent ID: 7405797

Claim:
A liquid crystal display apparatus with a back-light unit, comprising: a flat light source apparatus used as the back-light unit, including a light source, a light emitting unit configured to output light from said light source through a front surface, a frame for containing said light source and said light emitting unit, a conductive pad mounted on a back outer surface or a side outer surface of said frame, and a power supply terminal of said light source connected to said conductive pad to light up said light source through said conductive pad; a liquid crystal panel with liquid crystal filled between two insulating substrates facing each other which is fixed to a viewing side of said flat light source apparatus, and said liquid crystal panel is configured to transmit the light from said flat light source to a display surface; and an outer housing disposed to form an outer shell of the liquid crystal display apparatus, said outer housing framing said liquid crystal panel and enclosing said flat light source apparatus, wherein said conductive pad is accessible from outside of said outer housing.
