Cover for reducing contamination in a plasma display device and plasma display device employing the cover
First Claim
1. A plasma display device, comprising:
- a plasma display panel including a first substrate and a second substrate;
a frame, the frame having a first side, a second side, and a guiding portion, the first substrate and the second substrate being arranged on the first side of the frame;
at least one printed circuit board arranged on the second side of the frame;
a plurality of signal transmission cables, at least some of the signal transmission cables having portions connected to electrodes formed on at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate, and extending along the guiding portion of the frame to the second side of the frame;
a plurality of buffer substrates, to which other portions of the signal transmission cables are connected, the plurality of buffer substrates being arranged a surface of the second side of the frame; and
at least one cover including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion extending over at least one of the buffer substrates such that the at least one buffer substrate is arranged between the first portion and the second side of the frame and the second portion extending from the first portion, a first part of the second portion at least one of extending toward and contacting the surface of the second side of the frame and a second part of the second portion at least one of extending toward and contacting a surface of the guiding portion of the frame.

Abstract
A cover for reducing contamination in a plasma display apparatus including a frame with a printed circuit board, signal transmission cables and buffer substrates arranged on one side thereof and including a guiding portion for guiding the cables is provided. The cover may include a first portion and a second portion that may itself include a first part and a second part. When the cover is detachably attached to the frame, the first portion may extend over the buffer substrates such that the buffer substrates are arranged between the first portion of the cover and the frame, an end portion of the first part may extend toward and/or contact a surface of the frame on which the plurality of buffer substrates and the at least one printed circuit board are arranged, and an end portion of the second part may extend toward and/or contact the guiding portion of the frame.
