  • Patent number: 8864342
    Abstract: A display device and a lighting device are provided. The display device includes a display element for outputting an image according to a provided image signal, a frame disposed on a rear surface of the display element, and a reflection layer formed on the frame and positioned between the display device and the frame, the reflection layer being a coating layer formed using a paint including at least one of silver and aluminum. When the backlighting device of the display device is configured, a reflection plate where deposition films and a reflection layer made of a metal component are deposited is not required and the reflection layer is formed on the frame by using a paint having at least one of silver and aluminum as its main components, thereby simplifying a manufacturing process, and contributing to reducing the thickness of the display device.

  • Patent number: 8542481
    Abstract: A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) module for use in a portable terminal is provided. The LCD module includes a reinforcement plate of a metal material having a bottom surface, and a side surface bent and extended at a substantially constant height along an edge from the bottom surface, a backlight unit laminated onto an upper part of the reinforcement plate, and having a frame of a synthetic resin material that is formed along an edge to insert-mold the reinforcement plate, and an LCD panel fixed by a double sided tape at an upper part of the backlight unit. A portion of the side surface of the reinforcement plate is sequentially twice bent back onto itself on the outside of the reinforcement plate such that its end has a substantially constant width in contact with the bottom surface of the reinforcement plate.
