A liquid crystal display has a liquid crystal panel, a gate chip on film (COF) disposed at a side of a side surface of the liquid crystal panel, side-edge-type backlights having a light emitting diode disposed on left and right side surfaces of the liquid crystal panel, and a cover and a frame that hold the liquid crystal panel and the backlights, the frame has an opening disposed at a position corresponding to the position of the gate COF into which the gate COF is inserted, and a lid for covering the gate COF inserted in the opening is connected to the frame in such a manner that the lid is capable of being opened and closed.

Liquid crystal display

There is provided a slim liquid crystal display unit having a large screen by providing a slim structure capable of sufficiently radiating the heat from a light source. The liquid crystal display unit according to the present invention includes: a liquid crystal panel; an optical guiding board installed on a rear face thereof; a pair of light source-mounted substrate disposed, opposing right and left side faces thereof; a light source mounted on the light source-mounted substrate; a metal frame connected on the opposite side to the optical guiding board of the light source-mounted substrate; a chassis member for supporting the optical guiding board and a reflection sheet group; and a thermal diffusion member fixed onto the metal frame along with the chassis member. The chassis member has a stepped portion in the vicinity of the light source. Between the stepped portion and the reflection sheet group, a thermal insulation member is attached.
