  By the way, recent thin display devices are increasingly required to be thinner. Along with this, the light source used in the display device and the lamp holding clip used in the light source are also subject to thinning.

  Thinning of the display device is achieved by, for example, eliminating one or both of the frame body in a panel module including a panel having a display surface and two frame bodies holding the peripheral edge of the panel in the front and back, and covering interior components such as the panel module. Or a lamp housing case in the light source is configured to serve as the frame body, or a configuration in which a space between the optical sheet disposed on the rear side of the panel and the panel is narrowed. Yes.

  However, with the progress of thinning, it is difficult to make the thinning further by deleting existing parts or narrowing the space.

  The applicant of the present invention pays attention to a clip for holding a lamp used for a light source in order to further reduce the thickness, and as described in Patent Document 1, the mounting portion attached to the lamp housing case has a circumferential direction of the lamp. A clip having two pressing pieces for holding a lamp in a radial direction at a tip end portion of a protrusion having a contact portion that comes into contact with one place and pressing the lamp against the contact portion is improved. By making the lamp that can be held close to the rear wall of the lamp housing case, the light source can be made thinner than when the clip described in Patent Document 1 is used. Objective.

  Specifically, the abutment portion of the attachment portion that is attached to the support member that supports the lamp and has an abutment portion that should abut on one place in the circumferential direction of the lamp is connected to the attachment portion, and the lamp is connected to the contact portion. A lamp whose peripheral surface abuts against the abutment portion by disposing the ramp at a position spaced from the depressing piece with respect to the boundary portion with the attachment portion of the pressure piece to be pressed to the support body to which the attachment portion is attached It is a main object to provide a clip that can be made closer and a light source that can be made thinner.

  The clip according to the present invention has an abutting portion to be abutted at one circumferential direction of a lamp having a cylindrical shape, and is connected to an attaching portion to be attached to a support that supports the lamp, and the attaching portion. A clip provided with a pressing piece that contacts the other part in the circumferential direction of the lamp and presses the lamp against the contacting part; and the contact part relates to a boundary part of the pressing piece with the mounting part. It is arranged at a site opposite to the pressing piece.

  In this invention, the contact portion that contacts one place in the circumferential direction of the lamp is disposed at a portion opposite to the pressing piece with respect to the boundary portion with the mounting portion of the pressing piece that presses the lamp against the contacting portion. Therefore, the distance between the support body to which the mounting portion is attached and the contact portion can be shortened, and the lamp that contacts the contact portion can be brought closer to the support body. Therefore, the light source in which the clip is used can be reduced in thickness.

Moreover, it is preferable that the clip which concerns on this invention sets it as the structure which has distribute | arranged the said press piece in the site | part which opposes on both sides of the said contact part regarding the said contact part.
In the present invention, since the two pressing pieces can be arranged at the target position with respect to the abutting portion that abuts on the circumferential part of the lamp, the pressing force applied to the lamp can be equalized, and the load on the lamp Can be reduced.

In the clip according to the present invention, each of the pressing pieces has a longer distance from the boundary portion to the contact portion than a distance between the second contact portions that should contact the lamp of each of the pressing pieces. It is preferable to adopt a configuration arranged in the above.
In this invention, since the boundary part with the attachment part of each of the pressing pieces can be relatively separated from the abutting part that comes into contact with the circumferential part of the lamp, the length of the two pressing pieces can be reduced. Can be relatively long. Therefore, the flexibility of the pressing piece can be improved, and the fitting property between the pressing pieces of the lamp can be improved.

The clip according to the present invention is preferably configured such that each of the pressing pieces is biased toward the side of the lamp in the longitudinal direction of the lamp.
In this invention, since the length of the pressing pieces can be extended without being affected by the juxtaposition interval of the lamps in which a plurality of lamps are juxtaposed, the length of the two pressing pieces can be made relatively long. it can. Therefore, the flexibility of the pressing piece can be improved, and the fitting property between the pressing pieces of the lamp can be improved.

Further, the clip according to the present invention is configured such that the abutting portion is disposed at a plurality of portions that should be separated in the circumferential direction of the lamp, and the pressing piece is disposed at one portion in the circumferential direction. Is preferred.
In this invention, since one pressing piece presses the lamp against a plurality of abutting portions, the lamp can be stably held despite the single pressing piece. Therefore, the structure can be simplified and the cost can be reduced.

Further, in the clip according to the present invention, the mounting portion has the abutting portion on one surface, and two flexible claws to be fitted and locked on the other surface on a hole formed in the support body. It is preferable to have a configuration having
In the present invention, since the two flexible claws are provided on the other surface of the attachment portion, the length of each of the flexible claws can be shortened, and the amount of protrusion of the flexible claws with respect to the support body is reduced. it can.

Further, in the clip according to the present invention, the attachment portion has the abutting portion on one surface, and on the other surface, a locking convex portion to be fitted and locked into a hole formed in the support body, and It is preferable to have a structure having a flexible claw.
In the present invention, since one flexible claw can be fitted into the hole in a state where the locking projection is fitted and locked in the hole of the support body, in other words, one flexible claw is bent. Thus, the attachment portion can be attached to the support body, so that the work of attaching the clip can be improved.

  A light source according to the present invention includes a plurality of lamps juxtaposed, a support that supports the lamps, and the clip according to the invention described above.

  In the present invention, the contact portion that contacts the part of the lamp in the circumferential direction is arranged at a position opposite to the pressing piece with respect to the boundary portion with the mounting portion of the pressing piece that presses the lamp against the contacting portion. Therefore, the distance between the support body to which the mounting portion is attached and the contact portion can be shortened, and the lamp that contacts the contact portion can be brought closer to the support body. Therefore, the light source can be thinned.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the distance between the support body to which the mounting portion having the abutting portion that abuts on a partial position in the circumferential direction of the lamp and the abutting portion is attached, and the lamp that abuts on the abutting portion Therefore, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the light source in which the clip is used.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings illustrating embodiments thereof.
