Abstract

A liquid crystal television includes a display module generating heat, a substrate having a mounting surface and being placed at an interval from the display module, a component group mounted on the mounting surface, and a housing storing the display module, the substrate, and the component group. The mounting surface includes a first surface extending opposite to the display module and a second surface placed at a rear side of the first surface. A component in the component group having the greatest height with respect to the mounting surface is mounted on the first surface of the first surface and the second surface. The housing is provided with a first air vent hole positioned below the substrate and a second air vent hole positioned above the substrate. An airflow circulating through the first air vent hole, space between the display module and the first surface, and the second air vent hole is created within the housing. With such structure, a display apparatus reduced in thickness and improved in cooling effect is provided.
