Abstract: Backlight with which the uniformity of brightness within a display area of a concavely curved liquid crystal display device is improved while fulfilling the demand for slimmer liquid-crystal display devices, as well as curved liquid-crystal display device including such a backlight. The shape of a frame, an optical sheet, and a scattering plate constituting the backlight unit is the same concavely curved shape as that of the concavely curved panel; and the liquid-crystal panel, the optical sheet, and cold-cathode luminescent lamps are arranged such that the concavely curved panel, the surface of a frame constituting the backlight unit that faces the concavely curved panel, an optical sheet surface, and a surface including the tube center axes of a plurality of cold-cathode luminescent lamps are parallel to each other.

Abstract: Liquid-crystal display device with a concavely curved panel in which a reflective plate is installed with which a uniform brightness of the screen of the liquid-crystal device with curved screen can be maintained and brightness non-uniformities can be remedied, without making the outer shape of the liquid-crystal display device large. In a liquid-crystal display device having a structure in which a concavely curved panel is held by spacers having a curved shape that are installed on a backlight unit, a reflective plate or reflective sheet is attached to all those inner walls formed by an inner space enclosed by the concavely curved panel, the spacers and the backlight unit that are formed by components that are installed between the curved panel and the backlight unit and that are formed by components that are not transmissive to light that is emitted from the light source.

Abstract: Curved-panel liquid crystal display and method of its manufacture are realized without necessitating drastic changes to the display structure or to the steps in its manufacture, and without requiring new materials or manufacturing technology. The back side of a liquid crystal panel is set on first concavely curved spacers that support two opposing edges of the panel back side. Second concavely curved spacers are set on the front side of the two opposing panel edges. Third spacers of uniform height are disposed on the panel back side to support it along the remaining two edges. The second spacers are then pressed to pressure the panel from the front side against the first spacers, wherein the panel is clamped between the first and second spacers.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a casing assembly for a display device. The casing assembly includes a rear casing and a front casing. The rear casing includes a middle part with an H-shaped section, the H-shaped part is provided with an upward recess for receiving a display unit and a downward recess for receiving a circuit module. The front casing is provided with an opening to expose a display panel of the display unit. The front casing and the rear casing are connected together with plug-in connecting means. The casing assembly of the present invention makes it possible to cut down the number of components of the display device as well as the steps of the assembly process. Also disclosed herein is a display device which is provided with the casing assembly of the present invention.
