Abstract
The backlight device included in the display apparatus is provided with: a light guide plate, a front chassis (pressing member) disposed at the front side of the light guide plate; and a heat sink (supporting member) having a plate-shaped connecting part (connecting plate) disposed at the side of the light guide plate, to be connected with other members. A through hole is formed in the connecting part, and a nut, which is necessary for connecting a bezel and the front chassis with a screw, is press-fitted into the through hole. A portion of the front side end of the connecting part, which is closest to a through hole, is a recessed part. Even if the front side end of the connecting part is deformed by the press-fitting of the nut into the through hole, the recessed part counteracts the deformation, and the connecting part does not interfere with the front chassis. Therefore, positional deviation of the front chassis and the light guide plate does not occur.
