Abstract: The present invention is directed to a display device that overcomes the limitation on tact time, and the defective phenomenon attributed to the generation of bubbles, pasting and visual irregularities at the time of laminating a film to a display panel. A polarizer is positioned in parallel to the vicinity of a main surface of a liquid crystal cell by holding two portions of the polarizer at suction stages. A portion of the polarizer is pushed and brought into contact with the main surface of the liquid crystal cell. From the portion of the polarizer, the polarizer is pushed to the main surface toward one end of the main surface along a first direction thereof. The polarizer is pushed to the main surface of the liquid crystal cell toward another end of the main surface in the first direction so as to laminate the polarizer to the main surface.

Abstract: The present invention prevents a defective display attributed to a non-uniform gap between a display element and a backlight which is caused by a phenomenon that an inner wall of a mold casing is shaved off by an end periphery of the display element and a shaved-off debris remains between the casing and the display element. Guide projections are integrally formed on an inner wall of a picture-frame-like portion of the mold casing and, at the same time, a gap which accommodates the shaved-off debris is formed between the guide projection and a bottom portion of the mold casing.
