Abstract
A display panel, such as a liquid crystal panel, fixed onto a holder plate is aligned with other optical members, and while the alignment is maintained, the holder plate is fixed onto a panel-fixing frame with solder. At least one of the holder plate and the panel-fixing frame at the fixing region is provided with an opening or a cut, whereby the scattering of the solder around the fixing region is prevented and an improved fixing strength is attained.
