Abstract: A liquid crystal display device that is capable of preventing the damage to optical sheets and a liquid crystal panel due to vibration and impact is disclosed. The liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal panel for controlling transmissivity of liquid crystal to display images, a backlight unit configured to include a plurality of optical sheets for irradiating light to the liquid crystal panel, and a support main for supporting the liquid crystal panel and the backlight unit, the support main having a protrusion curved to prevent the droop of the liquid crystal panel at the middle thereof. With the above construction, it is possible to minimize the friction between the liquid crystal panel and the optical sheets, prevent the formation of wrinkles or scratches at the optical sheets, and prevent the optical sheets from being rubbed.

Abstract: A plasma display apparatus is provided. The plasma display apparatus may include an upper substrate positioned facing a lower substrate, an upper electrode pair including a scan electrode and a sustain electrode formed on the upper substrate, an address electrode formed on the lower substrate, and at least one barrier rib positioned between the upper substrate and the lower substrate. A dielectric layer may be formed on the upper substrate, covering the upper electrode pair. In certain embodiments, a dielectric constant of a portion of the dielectric layer in an area between the scan electrode and the sustain electrode may be different from a portion of the dielectric layer in an area that overlaps the scan electrode and the sustain electrode. In alternative embodiments, a dielectric constant of a portion of the dielectric layer in an area that overlaps the at least one barrier rib may be different from a dielectric constant in an area that does not overlap the at least one barrier rib.

Abstract: A deflection yoke for a cathode ray tube, with reduced weight and volume plus a low cost of manufacture is obtained by making a ferrite core housed in the deflection yoke very light and thin, based on an optimized design obtained through a number of experimental trials.
