To prevent the occurrence of a situation in which a main stand component supporting a main display component from the rear closes and the main display component falls over backward when a main display component that has been placed in a tilted orientation is pushed to the rear. A locking mechanismfor keeping a main stand componentin a working orientation is added to a display device having a main display componentand a main stand componentthat is attached to the main display componentand opens and closes between a storage orientation and a working orientation. The locking mechanismhas an engagement bodythat is constantly biased toward a locked position by a spring. A control tabis provided to the engagement body

Display device

With a display device in which a main display component is supported in a tilted orientation by a stand unit, the leg of the stand unit will not be pushed in, causing the main display component to readily fall over backwards, even if the main display component in a tilted orientation should be accidentally pushed by hand. A stand unit A has a slideraffixed to the upper end of a leg, a casethat houses the slider, and a slider position restriction meansfor restricting the sliderto two positions: an upper position and a lower position. The slider position restriction meansis equipped with a cam componentand a spring. The springhas an engagement component, and the cam componentis equipped with a upper latching component, a lower latching component, and a wavy serrated facethat links these. The function of increasing the moving resistance when the engagement componentmoves is imparted to the serrated face
