  • Patent number: 7999882
    Abstract: A liquid crystal module includes a rear frame, a light reflecting sheet, a cold cathode tube, an optical sheet, a liquid crystal panel, a pair of lead wires and a pair of lamp sockets. The rear frame has an access opening. The cold cathode tube is disposed above the light reflecting sheet in an interior of the rear frame and having a pair of electric terminals at both end portions of the cold cathode tube. The pair of lead wires is connected to the electric terminals to form connected portions. The lead wires extend through the access opening of the rear frame from the interior of the rear frame. The pair of lamp sockets is fixedly attached to the both end portions of the cold cathode tube and fitted into the access opening of the rear frame to support the cold cathode tube with respect to the rear frame.
