Description

In-vehicle display device

The present invention relates to an on-vehicle display device.

Conventionally, in order to protect a display panel such as a liquid crystal panel, a transparent protective member that covers the display surface (display area) of the display panel has been used. As a protective member for protecting the display device as described above, for example, Patent Document 1 describes a transparent surface material with an adhesive layer having an adhesive layer formed on the surface.

International Publication No. 2011/148990

A vehicle-mounted display device such as a car navigation device is mounted on a vehicle such as an automobile. Examples of the type of the in-vehicle display device include an on-dash type standing outside the dashboard, an in-dash type embedded in the dashboard, and the like.
In such an in-vehicle display device, a transparent protective member such as a film or glass is used from the viewpoint of protecting the display panel. However, in recent years, a protective member made of glass (cover glass) instead of a film is used from the viewpoint of texture. Is desired. Furthermore, among glass, laminated glass tends to be thick and easily causes design problems. Further, since the cost is high, use of tempered glass is required.

From the standpoint of safety, the in-vehicle display device cover glass is required to have excellent impact resistance so that it does not break even if a passenger's head hits when a vehicle collision accident occurs. However, since the impact caused by the collision accident is much larger than the impact assumed in a stationary display device such as a liquid crystal television, for example, high impact resistance is required for the cover glass.

DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, the invention is not limited to the following embodiment, and various embodiments can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. Modified and replaced.

In the following, first, the cover glass with an adhesive layer used in the vehicle-mounted display device of the present embodiment will be described, and then the vehicle-mounted display device of the present embodiment will be described.

[Cover glass with adhesive layer]
FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a cover glass with an adhesive layer. In this embodiment, as an example of a method for manufacturing an in-vehicle display device, a cover glass with an adhesive layer is manufactured and bonded to a display panel. The method for manufacturing the in-vehicle display device is not limited thereto. . For example, the cover glass and the display panel may be bonded via an OCA (Optically Clear Adhesive) film or the like.
A cover glass 10 with an adhesive layer shown in FIG. 1 includes a transparent cover glass 12, an adhesive layer 14, a protective film 16, and a light shielding part 20.
The adhesive layer 14 is provided on the cover glass 12. An area where the adhesive layer 14 is provided in the cover glass 12 is referred to as an arrangement area 12a. The cover glass 12 has a light shielding portion 20 formed at the peripheral edge 12 b, and an adhesive layer 14 is formed on the first main surface 12 c of the cover glass 12.

The shape of the cover glass 12 and the adhesive layer 14 is, for example, a rectangular shape in plan view, and the adhesive layer 14 has a smaller outer shape. For example, the adhesive layer 14 is disposed with its center aligned with the cover glass 12. On the first main surface 12c of the cover glass 12, a light shielding portion 20 is formed in a frame shape at the peripheral edge portion 12b of the peripheral edge of the arrangement region 12a.
The light shielding unit 20 is configured to conceal wiring members connected to the display panel other than the display surface (display area) of the display panel, which will be described later, from being visible from the second main surface 12d side of the cover glass 12. . However, when the wiring member or the like of the display panel has a structure that cannot be viewed from the side of observing the display panel, the light shielding portion 20 is not necessarily provided.

A protective film 16 covering the entire surface of the cover glass 12 is detachably provided on the first main surface 14a of the adhesive layer 14. When the cover glass 10 with the adhesive layer is bonded to the in-vehicle display device, the protective film 16 is peeled off. In this case, for example, a cut is made in the first main surface 16a of the protective film 16, and the protective film 16 is peeled off. The protective film 16 is not particularly limited, and for example, a relatively flexible film such as polyethylene or polypropylene is used.

〔cover glass〕
The cover glass 12 protects the display surface (display region) of the in-vehicle display device, and is usually a plate-like body (glass plate) having a flat shape or a curved surface.
The cover glass 12 has a thickness of 0.5 to 2.5 mm. If the plate thickness is less than 0.5 mm, the strength of the cover glass 12 itself is insufficient, and the impact resistance of the cover glass 10 with the adhesive layer may be reduced. On the other hand, if the plate thickness exceeds 2.5 mm, the plate becomes too thick, and is unsuitable for use in an in-vehicle display device from the viewpoint of design.

In general, the outer shape and size of the cover glass 12 are larger than those of the display panel from the viewpoint of design, sensor attachment, and attachment to the display module. About the shape of the cover glass 12, it determines suitably according to a vehicle-mounted display apparatus on a design. There are various in-vehicle display devices such as a rectangle and a trapezoid. In this case, the outer shape of the cover glass 12 is often equivalent to the outer shape of the in-vehicle display device. Depending on the outer shape of the in-vehicle display device, a cover glass 12 that covers the entire display surface of the display panel and that includes a curve in the outer shape can also be used.
As an example of the size of the cover glass 12, for example, in the case of a rectangle, the longitudinal direction: 100 to 800 mm and the short side direction: 40 to 300 mm can be mentioned.

In the present embodiment, as the cover glass 12, for example, a colorless and transparent plate-like tempered glass in which soda lime glass or aluminosilicate glass (SiO ₂ —Al ₂ O ₃ —Na ₂ O glass) is tempered. Is used.
As the cover glass 12, for example, chemically tempered glass (for example, “Dragon Trail (registered trademark)” manufactured by Asahi Glass Co., Ltd.) obtained by subjecting aluminosilicate glass to ion exchange strengthening treatment is preferably used.
The glass material constituting the cover glass 12 is, for example, in mol%, SiO ₂ 50 to 80%, Al ₂ O ₃ 1 to 20%, Na ₂ O 6 to 20%, K ₂ O. Glass materials containing 0 to 11% of Mg, 0 to 15% of MgO, 0 to 6% of CaO, and 0 to 5% of ZrO ₂ .
On the surface of the chemically strengthened cover glass 12, a compressive stress layer is formed on both sides thereof, and the thickness of the surface compressive stress layer is 10 μm or more, preferably 15 μm or more, more preferably 25 μm or more, More preferably, it is 30 μm or more. Further, the surface compressive stress in the surface compressive stress layer is preferably 650 MPa or more, and more preferably 750 MPa or more.
Typically, the method of subjecting the cover glass 12 to chemical strengthening includes a method in which the cover glass 12 is immersed in KNO ₃ molten salt, subjected to ion exchange treatment, and then cooled to around room temperature. The processing conditions such as the temperature and immersion time of the KNO ₃ molten salt may be set so that the surface compressive stress and the thickness of the surface compressive stress layer have desired values.

(Adhesive layer)
The adhesive layer 14 is for bonding the cover glass 12 to the in-vehicle display device when the cover glass 12 is bonded to the in-vehicle display device. The adhesive layer 14 is transparent like the cover glass 12, and the refractive index difference between the cover glass 12 and the adhesive layer 14 is preferably small.
Examples of the adhesive layer 14 include a layer made of a transparent resin obtained by curing a liquid curable resin composition. As a curable resin composition, a photocurable resin composition, a thermosetting resin composition, etc. are mentioned, for example, Especially, the photocurable resin composition containing a curable compound and a photoinitiator is preferable. As a curable resin composition, the photocurable resin composition for layered part formation of patent document 1 is mentioned suitably, for example.
In addition, as described above, the adhesive layer 14 may be bonded to OCA or the like separately cured in a film shape on the cover glass 12.

The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 14 is, for example, preferably 5 to 400 μm, and more preferably 50 to 200 μm. Further, the storage shear modulus of the adhesive layer 14 at a temperature of 25 ° C. is preferably, for example, 5 kPa to 5 MPa, and more preferably 1 MPa to 30 MPa.

[Method for producing cover glass with adhesive layer]
The manufacturing method of the cover glass 10 with the adhesion layer is demonstrated. Below, the form in the case of apply | coating a liquid resin composition on the cover glass 12, and hardening it is demonstrated.
First, the light shielding part 20 is formed in a frame shape on the peripheral edge part 12 b of the cover glass 12. Then, the light shielding part 20 is covered over the entire surface of the first main surface 12c of the cover glass 12, and the curable resin composition is applied using a method such as a die coater or a roll coater. (Not shown). The curable resin composition film is cut into the adhesive layer 14 as described later.

Next, a film material (not shown) is attached to the surface of the curable resin composition film. The film material is cut to become the protective film 16 as described later. After pasting the film material on the surface of the curable resin composition film, the curable resin composition film was protected by the film material by curing the curable resin composition film by photocuring treatment or thermosetting treatment. A laminate is obtained.
Next, in the obtained laminated body, the position which becomes the side surface 14b of the adhesion layer 14 is set as a cutting line, and the laminated body is cut by the cutting line using a laser beam. Thereby, the cover glass 10 with the adhesion layer by which the protective film 16 was provided in the 1st main surface 14a of the adhesion layer 14 is obtained.
In addition, a cutting process may be abbreviate | omitted when the adhesive layer film hardened | cured previously is bonded on the transparent surface material 10, or when a resin composition can be apply | coated accurately.

[In-vehicle display device]
Next, the in-vehicle display device 100 of this embodiment will be described.
FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the in-vehicle display device 100.
As shown in FIG. 2, the in-vehicle display device 100 has a concave housing 106. A backlight unit 102 is placed on a housing bottom member 107 that is a bottom plate of the housing 106, and a display panel 104 is placed on the backlight unit 102. In this way, the backlight unit 102 and the display panel 104 are housed in the housing 106. An opening 108 is formed in the housing 106, and the display panel 104 is disposed on the opening 108 side. A region corresponding to the opening 108 of the display panel 104 is a display surface 104a. The display panel module 100a is configured with the backlight 102 and the display panel 104 as main components.

The backlight unit 102 is generally composed of a lens sheet, a diffusion sheet, a light guide plate, a lamp, a reflector, and the like. Usually, the light guide plate is the thickest of these, and the overall rigidity of the backlight unit is increased. It is the main component in deciding. The thickness of the light guide plate is preferably 10 mm or less, more preferably 7 mm or less, and even more preferably 5 mm or less. This is to achieve a thinner casing by narrowing the frame. The thickness of the light guide plate is preferably 1 mm or more, more preferably 2 mm or more, and further preferably 4 mm or more. This is to prevent the light guide plate from being damaged by bending stress when an impact is applied to the backlight unit.

The Young's modulus of the material forming the light guide plate is preferably 1 GPa or more, more preferably 2 GPa or more, further preferably 3 GPa or more, and particularly preferably 60 GPa or more. This is to improve the impact resistance of the cover glass.

The linear expansion coefficient of the material forming the light guide plate is preferably 800 × 10 ⁻⁷ / ° C. or less, more preferably 600 × 10 ⁻⁷ / ° C. or less, and further preferably 200 × 10 ⁻⁷ / ° C. or less. This is to suppress the rise in the temperature inside the vehicle and the thermal expansion of the light guide plate by the light source in the backlight unit, and to achieve a thinner casing by narrowing the frame.

As the optical characteristics of the material forming the light guide plate, the minimum value of the internal transmittance in the wavelength range of 400 to 700 nm is 80% or more under the condition of the optical path length of 50 mm, and the maximum value and the minimum value of the internal transmittance are The difference is preferably 15% or less. The minimum value of the internal transmittance is 85% or more, and the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the internal transmittance is more preferably 13% or less. The minimum value of the internal transmittance is 90% or more, More preferably, the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the internal transmittance is 8% or less.

The material for forming the light guide plate is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the above-described conditions and the completed in-vehicle display device 100 satisfies the formula (I) described later. The material for forming the light guide plate is specifically acrylic resin, polycarbonate, glass or the like, and glass is particularly preferable. This is because of excellent Young's modulus, high strength of the casing and backlight unit, low expansion due to heat and moisture, and excellent thickness reduction of the casing. The glass may be tempered, and the tempering method may be chemical or physical, but is preferably chemically tempered. Moreover, it is preferable that the end surface of glass is chamfered. It is further desirable to chemically strengthen after chamfering. This is to prevent cracking from the end surface portion of the light guide plate due to vibration of the vehicle display device.

Further, the configuration of the display panel 104 and the material of the housing 106 (including the housing bottom member 107) are not particularly limited as long as the in-vehicle display device 100 satisfies the formula (I) described later. The shape and size of the outer shape of the casing bottom member 107 are appropriately determined according to the outer shape of the in-vehicle display device 100. The in-vehicle display device 100 has recently been thinned in terms of design as well as the display panel module 100a. Therefore, since the outer shape of the display panel 104 is generally a rectangle such as a rectangle, in that case, the outer shape of the casing bottom member 107 is preferably a rectangle. The size of the casing bottom member 107 in a plan view is that when the boundary portion between the cover glass 12 and the display panel 104 is referred to as a CG back surface step portion 300, the CG back surface step portion 300 is viewed from the back surface. It is preferable to bond the bottom body member 107 to the lower part so as to cover all. This is to show excellent impact resistance in the head impact test described later. The size of the casing bottom member 107 is more preferably the same as or larger than that of the cover glass 12.
When the non-display area from the display panel end to the cover glass end is wide, it is preferable to bond the casing bottom member 107 to the lower part so as to cover the CG back surface step portion 300.
Note that one or more other plate-like members may be bonded to the lower surface side of the housing bottom member 107, for example. The plate-like member is also preferably bonded to the lower part so as to cover all the CG back surface level difference portion 300 when viewed from the back surface in a vertical direction. This is also because it shows excellent impact resistance in the head impact test described later. More preferably, the size of the plate-like member is the same as or larger than that of the cover glass 12.

As shown in FIG. 2, there is a step from the display surface 104 a of the display panel 104 to the end surface 106 a of the housing 106 at the opening 108 of the housing 106.
After the protective film 16 is peeled off, the cover glass 10 with the adhesive layer bonds the adhesive layer 14 to the display surface 104 a of the display panel 104 so as to fill the opening 108 of the housing 106. Accordingly, the cover glass 12 covers the display surface 104 a of the in-vehicle display device 100 to the end surface 106 a of the housing 106. This cover glass 12 functions as a protective member for the display surface 104 a of the in-vehicle display device 100.

Thus, the vehicle-mounted display device of the present invention has a configuration in which the cover glass is the first layer and the first layer to the n-th layer are laminated. Specifically, for example, in the above-described in-vehicle display device 100, at least the cover glass 12 (first layer), the display panel 104 (second layer), the backlight unit 102 (third layer), and the housing The body bottom member 107 (fourth layer) has a configuration in which four layers are stacked in this order. The in-vehicle display device does not have a backlight unit, and at least three layers of a cover glass (first layer), a display panel (second layer), and a housing bottom member (third layer) are arranged in this order. It may have a laminated structure. For example, when the display panel is an organic EL panel or a PDP panel, the above configuration does not include a backlight unit.
Actually, an adhesive layer exists between the cover glass (first layer) and the display panel (second layer). The handling of the adhesive layer will be described later.
In the above-mentioned in-vehicle display device, the cover glass is used as a first layer member (that is, a first layer member on the surface on the display surface side), and one type or a plurality of types from the layer next to the first layer. The members are placed in order so as to be laminated, and have a laminated structure. Here, the lamination is a form in which the constituent members are sequentially assembled in that order, or are sequentially assembled in that order. Each component does not need to be bonded and stacked, and may be partially or entirely stacked at intervals, and partially surrounded. Or the structure which overlaps may be sufficient and the form of the laminated structure of various variations is included.

By the way, in an in-vehicle display device, the cover glass is required to have excellent impact resistance that does not break even if the head of an occupant collides with the vehicle in the event of a vehicle collision.
The present inventors have found that the impact resistance of the cover glass is excellent when the in-vehicle display device having the above configuration satisfies the following formula (I).
Formula (I): P ≦ 0.0302t ₁ ² + 0.0039t ₁ +0.0478

However, in formula (I),
P = E ₁ / (E ₁ t ₁ ² +... + E _n t _n ² )
E ₁ : Young's modulus of cover glass (unit: GPa)
t ₁ : thickness of cover glass (unit: mm)
E _n : Young's modulus of the n-th layer member (unit: GPa)
t _n : thickness of the n-th layer (unit: mm)
It is. In the above formula, n is an integer of 2 or more.

It is shown in the [Example] described later that the impact resistance of the cover glass is excellent when the formula (I) is satisfied. That is, in [Example], when the formula (I) is not satisfied (comparative example), the cover glass is cracked, whereas when the formula (I) is satisfied (example), the cover glass is not broken. It has been shown.

For example, in the case of the above-described in-vehicle display device, it is called a cover glass (first layer), a display panel (second layer), a backlight unit (third layer), and a casing bottom member (fourth layer). Since it has a four-layer structure, the P is expressed as follows.
P = E ₁ / (E ₁ t ₁ ² + E ₂ t ₂ ² + E ₃ t ₃ ² + E ₄ t ₄ ² )
E ₁ : Young's modulus of cover glass (unit: GPa)
t ₁ : thickness of cover glass (unit: mm)
E ₂ : Young's modulus of display panel (unit: GPa)
t ₂ : thickness of display panel (unit: mm)
E ₃ : Young's modulus of the backlight unit (unit: GPa)
t ₃ : thickness of the backlight unit (unit: mm)
E ₄ : Young's modulus of casing bottom member (unit: GPa)
t ₄ : thickness of the casing bottom member (unit: mm)
It is.
The backlight unit has a structure in which a light guide plate made of a thick glass plate, a polycarbonate plate, an acrylic resin, etc., and several thin functional films such as a reflective polarizing film and a brightness enhancement film are laminated. However, since the light guide plate controls the rigidity of the backlight unit, the Young's modulus of the light guide plate is calculated as the Young's modulus of the backlight unit.

The Young's modulus (E ₁ ) of the cover glass is preferably 60 to 80 GPa, more preferably 70 to 80 GPa.
The Young's modulus (E ₂ ) of the display panel is preferably 60 to 80 GPa, more preferably 70 to 80 GPa.
The Young's modulus (E ₃ ) of the backlight unit is preferably 1 to 90 GPa, more preferably 2 to 90 GPa, and further preferably 60 to 90 GPa.
The Young's modulus (E ₄ ) of the casing bottom member is preferably 40 to 250 GPa, more preferably 150 to 250 GPa. Note that the display panel, the backlight unit, and the housing may be a composite material formed by combining a plurality of materials. In that case, the Young's modulus of the entire composite material is preferably within the above numerical range.
The Young's modulus of each member is measured by a tensile test (JIS K7161 and JIS K7113).

The cover glass has a thickness (t ₁ ) of 0.5 to 2.5 mm, preferably 0.7 to 2 mm, and more preferably 1.3 to 2 mm.
The thickness (t ₂ ) of the display panel is preferably 1 to 2 mm, more preferably 1.1 to 1.3 mm.
The thickness (t ₃ ) of the backlight unit is preferably 1 to 10 mm, more preferably 2 to 6 mm, and further preferably 3 to 5 mm.
The thickness (t ₄ ) of the housing bottom member is preferably 0.5 to 4 mm, and more preferably 1 to 4 mm.
The thickness of each member is the length in the vertical direction in FIG.

In the on-vehicle display device described above, actually, at least one of the members from the cover glass (first layer) to the nth layer is an adhesive layer. For example, in the four-layer structure described above, the adhesive layer 14 (referred to as the 1.5th layer) is disposed between the cover glass 12 (first layer) and the display panel 104 (second layer).
Here, when considering the Young's modulus (E _1.5 ) and thickness (t _1.5 ) of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, the above P is expressed as follows.
P = E ₁ / (E ₁ t ₁ ² + E _1.5 t _1.5 ² + E ₂ t ₂ ² + E ₃ t ₃ ² + E ₄ t ₄ ² )
However, the Young's modulus (E _1.5 ) of the adhesive layer is sufficiently smaller than the Young's modulus of the other layers, and the thickness (t _1.5 ) is, for example, 5 to 400 μm. For this reason, the value of “E _1.5 t _1.5 ² ” in P is negligibly small compared to the other values of “E ₁ t ₁ ² ” to “E ₄ t ₄ ² ”.
Therefore, even when the adhesive layer is present in the laminated structure (the first layer to the nth layer), in the present embodiment, when considering the formula (I), it is considered that the adhesive layer is not present. Be good. In other words, the P value may be obtained assuming that the value of “E _1.5 t _1.5 ² ” is 0 (zero).

Further, P in the formula (I) will be described.
First, an equation that is a theoretical calculation formula for the curvature (same for each layer) and the stress generated in each layer when a beam (combined beam) in which different materials are arranged in layers in parallel with the neutral axis of the bending is subjected to bending. Consider (1) to (3) (A _i : cross-sectional area of i layer, E _i : Young's modulus of i layer, I _i : secondary moment of inertia of i layer, n: number of layers).

・ Position of neutral axis

·curvature

Now, when a four-layer structure as shown in FIG. 3 is considered, the following equations (4) to (6) can be expressed (M: bending moment, y ′: position of neutral axis, y: distance from neutral axis). .

Here, when considering the four-layer structure of cover glass / display panel / backlight unit / housing bottom member, in order for the cover glass not to break, the stress generated on the back surface of the cover glass as the first layer is: The lower one is preferable. In other words, preferably as sigma ₁ of formula (4) is small, high Young's modulus of each member constituting the layer, also, as the thick layer, sigma ₁ is can be seen that small.
From the equation (6), it can be seen that the cross-sectional second moment has a correlation with the cube of the cover glass thickness, but from the equation (4), the back surface position (y) of the first layer, that is, the thickness is multiplied. Therefore, the P value represented by the following formula is derived from the formulas (4) and (6) as parameters for determining whether the cover glass breaks / breaks.
P = E ₁ / (E ₁ t ₁ ² + E ₂ t ₂ ² + E ₃ t ₃ ² + E ₄ t ₄ ² )

The display panel is a liquid crystal panel, an organic EL panel, a PDP, an electronic ink type panel, or the like, and may have a touch panel or the like.
In the case of a display panel other than the liquid crystal panel, for example, in the case of an organic EL panel or a PDP, the calculation is performed with the configuration excluding the backlight unit.
Examples of such an in-vehicle display device include an on-dash type car navigation device standing on a dashboard, an in-dash type car navigation device embedded in a dashboard of a vehicle, and the like. Other devices (for example, an instrument panel) may be used.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described by way of examples and the like, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

An end portion on the upper surface side of the backlight unit 102 is bonded to an end portion on the lower surface side of the display panel 104 by a double-sided tape 207 or the like. Therefore, an air gap exists between the display panel 104 and the backlight unit 102 by the thickness of the double-sided tape 207 or the like. The distance due to the air gap is 0.5 to 1.5 mm from the backlight unit 102 to the display panel. In general, the air gap is set to 1.5 mm, but it is not necessary to be 1.5 mm depending on the situation, and there may be no air gap. This air gap is controlled by the thickness of an adhesive member such as the double-sided tape 207, and may not be used depending on the situation. The upper surface of the display panel 104 is lower than the upper surface of the housing frame 109 disposed around the display panel 104 and is a recess. The adhesive layer 14 of the cover glass 10 with the adhesive layer is bonded to the upper surface of the display panel 104 so as to fill the concave portion. A boundary portion between the cover glass 12 and the display panel 104 is a CG back surface step portion 300. A housing end frame 110 is disposed outside the side end surface of the cover glass 12 and on the top surface of the housing frame 109.
Such an in-vehicle display device 100 is fixed to a solid fixing rib 213 integrated with a support plate 215 which is a flat plate by bolts 211 arranged in a gap in one housing frame 109.
In an actual in-vehicle display device, it is preferable that the housing bottom member 107 is bonded to the lower part so as to cover the entire CG back surface level difference portion 300 when viewed vertically from the back surface. Further, the distance from the CG back surface step portion 300 as shown in FIG. 5 to the outer periphery of the in-vehicle display device 100 and _{L 2,} when the _{L 1} and _L 2/2, housing bottom member 107 in FIGS. 5 (a) one end than the cross-sectional view dimensions of the display panel 104 as shown is used as the L ₁ or larger size (one side ie housing bottom member 107, 2L ₁ or greater than one side of the display panel 104), CG backside step It is preferable to cover all of the portion 300. This is because the effect of reducing the tensile stress in the CG back surface level difference portion 300 can be expected during the head impact test. Furthermore one end than the cross-sectional view dimensions of the display panel 104 is used as a large size by L ₁ or L ₂ or less, it is more preferable to cover all CG backside stepped portion 300. The 5 end than the cross-sectional view dimensions of the display panel 104 as shown in (b) is (equal to the size of the That plan view when viewed vehicle display device 100 from the vertical), using those larger size by L _2, CG backside More preferably, the entire step portion 300 is covered. This is because the effect of reducing the tensile stress in the CG back surface level difference portion 300 can be most expected during the head impact test.
Also, in the actual in-vehicle display device, by adopting a rib structure in which the housing bottom member 107 is bonded to the lower portion of the CG back surface step portion 300 and ribs are provided at several places on the housing frame 109. It is preferable to improve the rigidity. This is because a resin material is often used for the display frame design in the casing frame 109, and the rigidity may be inferior due to the resin. However, by adopting the rib structure, excellent impact resistance is achieved in the head impact test. This is because it can be obtained. The housing 106 may have a structure in which the housing frame 109, the housing bottom member 107, and the housing end frame 110 are separated from each other, may be an integrated molded product, or may have a partially integrated structure, There is no particular limitation.

In the prepared test body 200, the cover glass 12, the display panel 104, the backlight unit 102, and the housing bottom member 107 are changed in each example, and the Young's modulus and thickness are shown in Table 1 and Table 2 below. It was changed as follows.
In the test body 200, soda lime glass was substituted for the display panel 104, and a polycarbonate plate was substituted for the backlight unit 102.
As the casing bottom member 107, an aluminum plate (Young's modulus: 68.6 GPa) or an iron plate (Young's modulus: 206 GPa) was used.
In the case of a display panel composed of the above-described normal TFT liquid crystal panel, the structure is basically composed of a polarizing plate / glass substrate (for example, a plate thickness of 0.55 mm) / liquid crystal layer / glass substrate (for example, 0.55 mm). Plate thickness) / polarizing plate, but since the polarizing plate and the liquid crystal layer have low rigidity, the glass plate of the liquid crystal panel dominates the rigidity. Therefore, calculation was performed by substituting the Young's modulus of the glass substrate constituting the liquid crystal panel.

In FIG. 6, the sizes indicated by H ₁ to H ₃ and W ₁ to W ₃ are H ₁ : 120 mm, H ₂ : 150 mm, H ₃ : 250 mm, W ₁ : 173 mm, W ₂ : 250 mm, W ₃ : The size of the casing bottom member 107 was set to 160 mm × 260 mm larger than the display panel 104.
