The fluorescent lamp 1 and the printed circuit board 8 on which the lamp power supply pattern is formed are fixed to each other, and the projection 4 of the base 3 of the flat fluorescent lamp 1 is fitted into a hole 9 provided in the printed circuit board 8. Since the lamp power supply pattern and the protrusion 4 are connected, it is possible to prevent the liquid crystal and the fluorescent lamp from being displaced due to vibration or shock. Also,
The deformation of the power supply terminal of the lamp can be prevented, the work efficiency of soldering can be improved, and the deformation of the power supply terminal is not corrected, so that the leakage of the lamp can be prevented. Further, the mounting position of the flat fluorescent lamp on the printed circuit board 8 can be determined by the hole 9 formed by the punching process of the printed circuit board 8 which can easily improve the processing accuracy, and therefore it is necessary for mounting the lamp. The positioning jig can be eliminated, and the fluorescent lamp can be accurately mounted at a predetermined position in a short time.
That is, the relative positional relationship between the liquid crystal and the flat fluorescent lamp can be maintained with high accuracy. Further, the number of assembling steps can be reduced and the cost reduction effect can be obtained.
