Abstract
A liquid crystal monitor incorporating therein a liquid crystal module having a direct backlight is configured to have receiving portions in a reflectorof the direct backlight that constitutes a liquid crystal module, in order to attach together the liquid crystal moduleand a liquid crystal monitor member. The receiving portions are constituted by reflector extensionsthat are formed by extending a bottom face of the reflectortoward a space between an inclined face of the reflector and an upper frameof the liquid crystal module. Then, the liquid crystal monitor memberis fixed to the reflector extensionsby screws. Thus, the use of a space near the inclined face of the reflector allows a liquid crystal monitor to be thinned and reduced in its size and the width of monitor frame.
