Abstract
A first positioning enclosure of a touch panel holder frame is attached to a display device body to surround an outer periphery of a display screen. A second positioning enclosure is attached to the display device body to surround an outer periphery of a touch panel. Holding pawl sections provided on an inner surface of the second positioning enclosure engage the outer periphery of the touch panel to prevent the touch panel from coming out of the touch panel holder frame. A spacer section extends between the first and second positioning enclosures to define a given clearance between the display screen and the touch panel.
