Abstract
A liquid crystal display panel in a mobile telephone is directly mounted to either a printed circuit board or a frame portion of a mobile telecommunication instrument, e.g., a telephone. An angular mounting structure for the liquid crystal display panel has a pair of support ribs that extend outwardly from a substantially planar portion of a frame, or back cover, of a telephone. Thus, the need for additional mounting parts is obviated. In one embodiment, the liquid crystal display panel is biasedly received within recesses provided on distal ends of support ribs extending from the frame portion. Preferably, the distal ends of the ribs have distal end surfaces which are adapted to fixedly support the liquid crystal display panel in predefined nonparallel relationship with respect to the planar portion of the back cover, with the aid of an adhesive material, e.g., a two sided adhesive tape. A method of assembly for mounting the liquid crystal display using the two sided adhesive tape is disclosed.
