  • Patent number: 7561225
    Abstract: Provided is a liquid crystal display device that offers improved heat dissipation and that can prevent a light source from being damaged when such liquid crystal display device is vibrated or dropped. The liquid crystal display device is provided with a liquid crystal cell 2, illuminating means 3 that is located behind the liquid crystal cell 2, and a frame body 4 that supports the liquid crystal cell 2 and the illuminating means 3. The illuminating means 3 includes a light guide plate 9, light sources 13 and 14 that are located so as to face one side face of the light guide plate 9, and a holder 12 that supports the light sources 13 and 14. There is provided a reinforcing member 15 between the light guide plate 9 and the holder 12, and there is provided a shock-absorbing member 16 located on a side face of the reinforcing member 15 and that makes contact with or lies adjacent to the one side face of the light guide plate 9.
