Abstract

A display device includes a case and a display panel module. The case includes a front bezel and a back bezel combined with each other to define an accommodating space in the case, and the case further includes a window formed on the front bezel. The display panel module includes a display screen, and the display panel module is disposed inside the case, wherein the display screen faces the window and an included angle is defined between the display screen and the front bezel. The included angle is between 3 to 5 degrees, when the display device is tilted a small angle backward, the included angle between the display screen and the front bezel make the display screen to be substantially perpendicular to a surface on witch the display device is placed thereon, such that the display screen is perpendicular to the line of the sight of a user.

Claims

1. A display device for displaying images generated by an electronic device, comprising:

a case, comprising a front bezel and a back bezel combined with each other, and a window formed on the front bezel; and

a display panel module, arranged to display images generated by the electronic device, comprising a display screen, wherein the display panel module is arranged such that the display panel module is disposed inside the case with the display screen facing the window, an comprised angle is defined between the display screen and the front bezel, and the comprised angle is between 3 to 5 degrees.

2. The display device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the case has a base portion, connecting the front bezel to the back bezel, for contact a surface to support the case on the surface.

3. The display device as claimed in claim 2, wherein the display screen comprises a lower edge corresponding to the base portion and an upper edge opposite to the lower edge, and the display screen is made to be tilted towards the outside of the window by being rotated about the lower edge as an axis of rotation.

4. The display device as claimed in claim 2, wherein the display screen has a lower edge corresponding to the base portion and an upper edge opposite to the lower edge, the window has a bottom edge corresponding to the base portion and a top edge opposite the bottom edge, and a distance from the lower edge of the display screen to the bottom edge of the window is larger than a distance from the upper edge of the display screen to the top edge of the window.

5. The display device as claimed in claim 2, further comprising a support, wherein the support comprises:

a joint portion, connected to the back bezel of the case; and

a pivot portion, extending away from the back bezel.

6. The display device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the joint portion is detachably connected to the back bezel of the case.

7. The display device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the support is a U-shaped stand, two ends of the U-shaped stand are connected to the back bezel to serve as the joint portion, and a middle section of the bent bar serve as the pivot portion.

8. The display device as claimed in claim 5, wherein a distance between the joint portion of the support and the base portion is ⅕

to 1/7 of a height of the case.

9. The display device as claimed in claim 5, further comprising a cam, pivoted eccentrically to the pivot portion of the support.

10. The display device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the display has a center of gravity, and a projection of the center of gravity on the surface falls between the base portion and the pivot portion.
