  Next, with reference to FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the case where the cover member 6 of one size is attached to the rear frames 5 and 105 of different sizes will be described.

  As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the cover member 6 having one size (the same size) is configured to be attachable to the rear frames 5 and 105 having different sizes. For example, when the liquid crystal television set shown in FIG. 10 is 19-inch (inch) and the liquid-crystal television set shown in FIG. It is possible to attach the cover member 6 whose length is L1 and whose length in the X direction is L2. In this case, the surface area of the non-substrate mounting region of the rear frame of the 22-inch liquid crystal television device is larger than the surface area of the non-substrate mounting region of the 19-inch liquid crystal television device. In addition to attaching the same size cover member 6 to the 19-inch liquid crystal television device and the 22-inch liquid crystal television device, for example, a 26-inch liquid crystal television device, a 32-inch liquid crystal television device, It is also possible to attach a cover member having a size common to the 26 type and the 32 type.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the board mounting area 51 with the circuit boards 7 and 8 attached to the rear surface is covered from the rear, and the non-board mounting area 52 other than the board mounting area 51 on the rear surface of the rear frame 5 is exposed. The cover member 6 is disposed so that As a result, the circuit boards 7 and 8 attached to the board attachment region 51 of the rear frame 5 can be directly covered with the cover member 6, so that it is not necessary to separately provide a member other than the cover member 6. Can be prevented from increasing. Unlike the case where both the board mounting area 51 and the non-board mounting area 52 of the rear frame 5 are covered by the cover member 6, the heat generated from the circuit boards 7 and 8 is exposed to the non-board mounting where the rear frame 5 is exposed. Heat can be efficiently radiated from the region 52 to the outside. Further, even when the rear housing 5 is configured by the exposed non-board mounting area 52 of the rear frame 5, the cover member 6 is arranged so as to cover only a part of the rear frame 5 (board mounting area 51). There is no need to provide a separate rear housing.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the cover member 6 arranged so as to cover the substrate attachment region 51 and expose the non-substrate attachment region 52 exposes the six external connection terminals 12 a of the circuit board 8. By having the opening 6c that exposes the opening 6b and the external connection terminal 12b, the external connection terminals 12a and 12b of the circuit board 8 are connected to the cover member 6 in a state where the circuit boards 7 and 8 are covered with the cover member 6. It can be easily connected to connection wiring such as an electronic device installed outside through the openings 6b and 6c.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the rear frame 5 constituting the rear housing is made of metal, and the exposed non-board mounting area 52 of the rear frame 5 is attached to the board mounting area 51. By causing the rear frame 5 constituting the rear housing to be more easily transferred by functioning as a heat radiating portion that radiates the heat of the substrates 7 and 8 to the outside, heat is transmitted from the circuit boards 7 and 8. Heat can be dissipated more efficiently from the outside.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as described above, the circuit boards 7 and 8 attached to the board attachment region 51 on the rear surface of the rear frame 5 are covered with the cover member 6 in a state of being housed in the recess 6d of the cover member 6. Thus, even when the circuit boards 7 and 8 are attached to the rear surface of the rear frame 5 so as to protrude rearward, the circuit boards 7 and 8 protruding rearward can be easily accommodated by the recess 6d of the cover member 6. Therefore, the entire circuit boards 7 and 8 can be easily covered with the cover member 6.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the non-board mounting area 52 is provided on the rear surface of the rear frame 5 so as to surround the board mounting area 51, thereby surrounding the board mounting area 51 of the rear frame 5. Since the area of the exposed region effective for heat dissipation can be increased by the non-substrate mounting region 52 exposed so as to surround the heat, the heat generated from the circuit boards 7 and 8 attached to the substrate mounting region 51 of the rear frame 5 is generated. Can be radiated more effectively.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the board | substrate attachment area | region 51 of the rear frame 5 is formed in the flat surface shape by attaching the cover member 6 so that it may fit in the concave-shaped board | substrate attachment area | region 51 as mentioned above. Unlike the case, the thickness of the entire liquid crystal television device 100 can be reduced by the amount of the substrate mounting region 51 of the rear frame 5 formed in a concave shape.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as described above, the frame-shaped front housing 1 having the inner peripheral surface portion 1a that covers the periphery of the outer peripheral surface portion 50 in the vicinity of the outer peripheral surface portion 50 of the rear frame 5 that constitutes the rear housing. By providing the front housing 1 and the rear housing (rear frame 5), the inner peripheral surface portion 1a of the front housing 1 is brought close to the outer peripheral surface portion 50 of the rear frame 5 constituting the rear housing. Can be formed into corresponding shapes.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the speaker 11 is covered by disposing the cover member 6 so as to cover the speaker 11 in addition to the circuit boards 7 and 8 while exposing the non-board mounting region 52. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the increase in the number of parts because it is not necessary to provide a separate member.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, the cover member 6 is attached to the display panel 2 (rear frames 5 and 105) having different sizes (19 type, 22 type, etc.) in a common size (size). It is necessary to form cover members 6 of different sizes (sizes) to be attached to display panels 2 (rear frames 5 and 105) of different sizes (19 types, 22 types, etc.). Therefore, the manufacturing process of the cover member 6 can be simplified accordingly.
