Abstract

A housing for receiving a flat panel display and/or a backlight module. The housing includes a front frame having a central window, wherein the inner edge of the frame defines an active area for the flat panel display, a bottom frame, a side frame locating between the front frame and the bottom frame to form a space and at least one opening. At least one separate plate is located on the inside surface of the side frame for separating the flat panel display and/or a backlight module. The housing includes a stopping frame having a reflector, a cavity, and pores to prevent the flat panel display or a backlight module from sliding out of the space.
