Patent attributes
A liquid crystal display device (1), comprising a liquid crystal display panel and an illumination unit (10). The illumination unit (10) further comprises a housing (11) having a rectangular bottom wall face and having, at its side peripheral edge parts, cut and erected pieces (141) and (142) formed by cutting out a part of the bottom wall surface and projecting the cutout parts to the rear surface, and a frame-shaped intermediate frame (20) having a display window (200) at its center part to which an illuminating member stored in the housing (11) is fixed. The intermediate frame (20) comprises locking pieces (231) inserted into opening parts (140) formed, when the cut and erected pieces are cut and raised, at positions corresponding to the cut and erected pieces (141) and (142). When the intermediate frame (20) is fixed to the housing (11), clearances formed between the cut and erected pieces (141) and (142) and the locking pieces (231) form a lead fixing parts for holding fixing leads (4) extracted from the illuminating member. The liquid display device thus provided can easily fix the leads extracted from the housing.
