Abstract
A display apparatus with a detachable base support is provided. The display apparatus includes a display panel, a base, a support, and a latch. The base includes an accommodation area for accommodating the support and a protrusion, which is disposed on a sidewall around the accommodation area and projects toward a center of the accommodation area. The support includes a guiding portion and a receiving portion. The latch is movably coupled with the guiding portion to be selectively in a first position and a second position. As the latch is in the first position, the receiving portion is accessible for receiving the protrusion. When the protrusion is received in the receiving portion, the latch moves to the second position so that the receiving portion is inaccessible and the protrusion is confined within the receiving portion, whereby the support is mounted on the base and capable of supporting the display panel. The display apparatus further includes an elastic element for providing a force pushing the latch to the second position.
