[0035] Accordingly, the display device (10) described in the present invention can perform various user-friendly functions, for example, since various applications can be freely added or deleted on a general-purpose OS kernel. More specifically, the display device (10) can be, for example, a network TV, HBBTV, smart TV, etc., and in some cases, can also be applied to a smartphone.

[0036] Figure 1 is a front perspective view showing a mounting state of a display device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0037] A display device (10) may include a display (151) that outputs an image on the front and a main body (100) in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped with a predetermined thickness. A control unit that drives the display (151), an audio output unit that outputs sound, and a power supply unit that supplies power to the display (151) and the control unit may be mounted inside the main body (100).

[0038] Recently, a display device (10) may be included that includes a rechargeable battery for wireless use. Data can be transmitted and received via wireless communication, and content and data can be transmitted and received via broadcast reception or a network.

[0039] The wireless type can perform short-range wireless communication with other electronic devices located nearby. The display device (10) can be connected to a network with other electronic devices according to communication standards such as Bluetooth, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), IrDA (Infrared Data Association), UWB (Ultra Wideband), ZigBee, and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), for example.

[0040] In addition to wireless communication, it may include a USB terminal, CVBS (Composite Video Banking Sync) terminal, component terminal, S-video terminal (analog), DVI (Digital Visual Interface) terminal, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) terminal, RGB terminal, D-SUB terminal, etc. for transmitting and receiving data via wire.

[0041] You can access a specific web page through the connected network or another network linked to the connected network. In other words, you can access a specific web page through the network and transmit or receive data to or from the server. Additionally, you can receive content or data provided by content providers or network operators.

[0042] That is, content such as movies, advertisements, games, VOD, and broadcast signals, as well as related information, can be received from content providers or network providers via the network. Furthermore, firmware update information and update files provided by network operators can be received. Furthermore, data can be transmitted to the Internet, content providers, or network operators.

[0043] The display (151) can generate a driving signal by converting a video signal, data signal, OSD signal, control signal, etc. processed by the control unit or a video signal, data signal, control signal, etc. received from the interface unit. The display (151) can include a display panel having a plurality of pixels.

[0044] The plurality of pixels provided on the display panel may have RGB sub-pixels. Alternatively, the plurality of pixels provided on the display panel may have RGBW sub-pixels. The display (151) may convert image signals, data signals, OSD signals, control signals, etc. processed by the control unit to generate driving signals for the plurality of pixels.

[0045] The display (151) can be a PDP (Plasma Display Panel), an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), an OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode), a flexible display, etc., and may also be a 3D display. The 3D display (151) can be divided into a glasses-free type and a glasses type.

[0046] The display device (10) includes a display (151) that occupies most of the front surface area and a case that covers the rear side of the display (151) and packages the display (151).

[0047] Recently, display devices (10) can utilize displays (151) that can be bent, such as LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) or OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes), to implement curved screens beyond flat surfaces.

[0048] Previously, LCDs were primarily used because they were unable to emit light on their own, so they relied on backlight units for light. Backlight units are devices that evenly distribute light from a light source to the liquid crystal display (LCD) located at the front. As backlight units have become thinner, thinner LCDs have become possible. However, it has been difficult to implement backlight units using flexible materials, and when the backlight unit is bent, it becomes difficult to supply light evenly to the LCD, causing screen brightness to fluctuate.

[0049] On the other hand, in the case of LEDs or OLEDs, since each element that forms a pixel emits light on its own, it is possible to implement a curved display without using a backlight unit. In addition, since each element emits light on its own, even if the positional relationship with neighboring elements changes, its own brightness is not affected, so a curved display (151) can be implemented using LEDs or OLEDs.

[0050] OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diodes) panels made their debut in the mid-2010s and are rapidly replacing LCDs in the small- and medium-sized display market. OLEDs utilize the self-luminous phenomenon, where fluorescent organic compounds emit light when current flows through them. Their image quality response speed is faster than that of LCDs, resulting in virtually no afterimages when displaying video.

[0051] OLED uses three types of fluorescent organic compounds with self-luminous functions: red, green, and blue. It is a luminescent display product that utilizes the phenomenon in which electrons injected from the cathode and anode and positively charged particles combine within the organic material to emit light on their own, so there is no need for a backlight (backlight device) that reduces color.

[0052] LED (Light Emitting Diode) panels are a technology that uses one LED element as one pixel, and since the size of the LED element can be reduced compared to the past, a flexible display (151) can be implemented. Devices previously called LED TVs used LEDs as a light source for a backlight unit that supplied light to an LCD, and the LEDs themselves did not form a screen.

[0053] A display may include a plurality of pixels (R, G, B). The plurality of pixels (R, G, B) may be formed in each area where a plurality of data lines and a plurality of gate lines intersect. The plurality of pixels (R, G, B) may be arranged or arranged in a matrix form.

[0054] For example, a plurality of pixels (R, G, B) may include a red (Red, hereinafter referred to as 'R') sub-pixel, a green (Green, 'G') sub-pixel, and a blue (Blue, 'B') sub-pixel. The plurality of pixels (R, G, B) may further include a white (White, hereinafter referred to as 'W') sub-pixel.

[0055] The side of the display (151) that displays an image may be referred to as the front or front. When the display (151) displays an image, the side that cannot be observed may be referred to as the rear or back. Meanwhile, the display (151) may be configured as a touch screen and may be used as an input device in addition to an output device.

[0056] The control unit may include at least one processor, and may control the overall operation of the display device (10) using the processor included therein. Here, the processor may be a general processor such as a central processing unit (CPU). Of course, the processor may be a dedicated device such as an ASIC or another hardware-based processor.

[0057] The control unit can demultiplex a stream input through a tuner unit, a demodulator unit, an external device interface unit (112), or a network interface unit (113), or process demultiplexed signals to generate and output signals for video or audio output.

[0058] The image signal processed by the control unit can be input to the display (151) and displayed as an image corresponding to the image signal. In addition, the image signal processed by the control unit can be input to an external output device through the external device interface unit.

[0059] The voice signal processed by the control unit can be output as sound to the audio output unit. Additionally, the voice signal processed by the control unit can be input to an external output device through the external device interface unit.

[0060] In addition, the control unit can control the display device (10) by a user command input through the user input interface unit or an internal program. Meanwhile, the control unit can control the display (151) to display an image. At this time, the image displayed on the display (151) may be a still image or a moving image, and may be a 2D image or a 3D image.

[0061] Meanwhile, the control unit can cause a predetermined 2D object to be displayed within an image displayed on the display (151). For example, the object can be at least one of a connected web screen (newspaper, magazine, etc.), EPG (Electronic Program Guide), various menus, widgets, icons, still images, videos, and text.

[0062] Fig. 2 is a rear perspective view illustrating a vertically mounted state of a display device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention. It includes a rear cover (110) that covers components inside the main body (100) and forms the rear exterior of the display device (10).

[0063] The display device (10) of the present invention includes a foldable back stand (200) via a stand hinge (230) on the back surface. When folded, the back stand (200) can be in a folded state in contact with the rear cover (110) forming the back surface of the main body (100) of the display device (10), and when unfolded to form a predetermined angle with the rear cover (110) as shown in FIG. 2, it can support the back surface of the display device (10).

[0064] The back stand (200) may include a stand leg (210) positioned on the back of the rear cover (110) and supporting the main body (100), and a stand hinge (230) coupled to a first end of the stand leg (210) and positioned on the front of the rear cover (110). The stand hinge (230) changes the angle of the stand leg (210) with respect to the rear cover (110), and the second end of the stand leg (210) may contact a support surface to support the main body (10).

[0065] The stand leg (210) of this embodiment is illustrated as extending parallel to the long side direction of the main body (100), but may also extend in the short side direction. For convenience of explanation, the back stand (200) illustrated in FIG. 2 will be used as the basis for the explanation.

[0066] The rear cover (110) may include a stand mounting portion (111) in which a stand leg (210) is stored. The stand mounting portion (111) may have a thickness corresponding to the thickness of the stand leg (210) on the back stand (200).

[0067] The conventional back stand (200) is fastened to the back of the display device (10), and an additional cover must be attached to cover the stand hinge (230) of the back stand (200). In this case, the number of parting lines, which are cutting lines between parts on the rear cover (110), increases, which hinders the integrated back design.

[0068] The back stand (200) of the present invention is characterized in that the stand hinge (230) is positioned on the inside of the rear cover (110) so that the stand hinge (230) is not exposed to the back surface.

[0069] Figure 3 is an exploded perspective view of the rear structure of a display device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention. The back stand (200) may include a stand leg (210) positioned on the rear surface of the rear cover (110) and supporting the main body (100), and a stand hinge (230) coupled to a first end of the stand leg (210) and positioned on the front of the rear cover (110).

[0070] The rear cover (110) may be formed with a stand hole (112) into which a first end of a stand leg (210) located on the rear surface may be inserted and fastened to a hinge bracket (232) located on the front surface. The stand hole (112) may have a size corresponding to the width and thickness of the stand leg (210) so that the stand leg (210) may pass through, as illustrated in FIG. 3.

[0071] The second end of the stand leg (210) is spaced apart from the bottom of the stand surface toward the back of the main body and supports the display device (10) so that it does not fall to the back. To prevent the stand leg (210) from slipping, a stand foot (215) having high frictional force may be further included at the second end of the stand leg (210). The stand foot (215) may be positioned on the front of the stand leg (210) so as not to be exposed to the outside.

[0072] The stand leg (210) can be accommodated in the stand mounting portion (111) formed on the back surface of the rear cover (110). The stand mounting portion (111) is inserted from the back surface of the rear cover (110) toward the front to a depth corresponding to the thickness of the stand leg (210), and a first magnet (216) located in the stand mounting portion (111) and a second magnet (217) located in the stand leg (210) can be used so that the stand leg (210) can be fixed to the stand mounting portion (111).

[0073] The second magnet (217) may be positioned between the stand foot (215) and the stand leg (210), in which case the first magnet (216) may also be positioned at the end of the stand mounting portion (111) as shown in FIG. 3.

[0074] The stand hinge (230) is coupled to the front of the rear cover (110) and may include a hinge bracket (232) including a second shaft coupling portion (233) and a hinge shaft (231) penetrating through the stand leg (210) and the hinge bracket (232). The hinge shaft (231) penetrates through the first shaft coupling portion (213) protruding forward of the stand leg (210) and the second shaft coupling portion (233) of the hinge bracket (232).

[0075] The hinge bracket (232) is coupled to the front of the rear cover (110) and may be made of a metal material to stably support the main body (100) via the stand leg (210). The hinge bracket (232) may include a second shaft coupling portion (233) through which the hinge shaft (231) passes, and the first shaft coupling portion (213) and the second shaft coupling portion (233) may be arranged side by side in the width direction.

[0076] The hinge shaft (231), the first shaft coupling portion (213), and the second shaft coupling portion (233) are called a hinge fastening portion.

[0077] The first shaft coupling portion (213) and the second shaft coupling portion (233) of the present embodiment may be provided as a pair spaced apart in the width direction of the stand leg (210). Fig. 4 is a drawing showing a hinge fastening portion of one side of a display device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 4, in order to rotate and couple the hinge shaft (231) to the nut (2314) into which one end of the hinge shaft (231) is inserted, the nut (2314) must be fixed.

[0078] However, since the space between a pair of hinge fastening parts is located between the hinge bracket (232) and the stand leg (210), making it difficult to secure the nut (2314), the hinge bracket (232) may have an opening formed therein so that one end of the hinge shaft (231) is exposed. By holding the nut (2314) at the front of the hinge bracket (232) through the opening, the hinge shaft (231) can be fastened to the first shaft coupling part (213) and the second shaft coupling part (233).

[0079] A washer (2313) may be interposed between the hinge shaft (231) and the first shaft coupling portion (213) and the second shaft coupling portion (233) to ensure smooth movement. The hinge shaft (231) may include a stopper gear (2312) having teeth that engage with a stopper projection (not shown) protruding from the stand leg (210) so that the stand leg (210) can be fixed at a desired angle.

[0080] The stopper gear (2312) is fixed to the hinge bracket (232) without rotating when the hinge shaft (231) rotates because the surface where it meets the hinge bracket (232) is configured as a straight line. When the stand leg (210) rotates around the hinge shaft (231), the stopper protrusion can move from the teeth of the stopper gear (2312) to the neighboring teeth. As long as a force exceeding a certain size is not applied by being caught by the teeth of the stopper gear (2312), the angle between the stand leg (210) and the rear cover (110) can be maintained.

[0081] FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are perspective views illustrating a method of fastening a back stand (200) and a rear cover (110) of a display device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0082] When the stand leg (210) is opened, components inside the main body (100) may be exposed through the opening (2135) of the hinge bracket (232) described above. To cover this, a covering sheet (234) coupled to the front of the stand opening (2135) may be further included.

[0083] As illustrated in FIG. 5, after the hinge fastening part is fastened, the back stand (200) can be fastened by inserting it into the stand hole (112) of the rear cover (110). As described above, the stand hole (112) has a size that allows the stand leg (210) to pass through, and as illustrated in FIG. 6, the stand leg (210) can be inserted into the stand hole (112) until the stand bracket touches the front of the rear cover (110).

[0084] It includes a hinge screw (220) that penetrates the hinge bracket (232) and is fastened to the front of the rear cover (110), and the hinge bracket (232) includes a screw hole (235) through which the hinge screw (220) passes, and the front of the rear cover (110) may include a screw boss (115) into which the hinge screw (220) is inserted.

[0085] Figure 7 is a rear perspective view illustrating a method for fastening a reinforcing screw of a display device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention. The hinge screw (220) is not exposed to the rear surface of the rear cover (110), thereby minimizing the external exposure of the fastening structure of the back stand (200).

[0086] However, a problem may arise in which the central portion of the rear cover (110) is lifted and separated from the main body (100) due to the back stand (200). To minimize the above problem, a reinforcing screw (225) that penetrates the rear cover (110) and is fastened to the main body (100) may be further included. The reinforcing screw (225) may be fastened to the main body (100) by penetrating the first reinforcing screw hole (116) formed in the rear cover (110) and the second reinforcing screw hole (236) formed in the hinge bracket (232).

[0087] Since the first reinforcing screw hole (116) is exposed to the outside, a screw cover (237) may be further included to cover it, and the screw cover (237) may be configured in a form that fits into the first reinforcing screw hole (116).

[0088] The rear cover (110) of the present invention may include a plurality of rear grooves (118), as illustrated in FIG. 7. The rear grooves (118) may be formed in a plurality, extending in a first direction and spaced apart from each other in a second direction. The first direction is the same as the direction in which the back stand (200) extends, and may be the longitudinal direction of the display device (10), as in the present embodiment.

[0089] The rear groove (118) increases the rigidity of the rear cover (110) and can be used as a design element of the rear cover (110).

[0090] In addition, the stand leg (210) can be configured so that both ends in the width direction are aligned with the rear groove (118) so that the stand leg (210) is not noticeable when the stand leg (210) is pressed against the rear cover (110).

[0091] When the spacing of the rear grooves (118) is narrower than the width of the stand legs (210), a plurality of stand legs (210) having a width corresponding to the width of the rear grooves (118) may be used as illustrated in FIG. 7. The stand legs (210) may further include leg grooves (218) extending from the rear grooves (118) for a unified rear appearance.

[0092] Meanwhile, if a VESA hole (117) for mounting a display device (10) is placed in the rear groove (118), the VESA hole (117) has the effect of not being clearly visible.

[0093] Fig. 8 is a rear perspective view illustrating a horizontally mounted state of a display device (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention. The display device (10) can be mounted using a rear groove (118). One end is coupled to a second-direction end of the main body (100) and includes a folio cover (252) that covers the front of the main body (100), and the folio cover (252) can be folded so that the other end is inserted into the rear groove (118) of the rear cover (110) to support the display device (10).

[0094] As seen above, the display device (10) of the present invention has the advantage of excellent portability as it can accommodate a back stand (200) on the back surface.
