In a liquid crystal display device provided with a backlight unit, creak
reduction means is provided at least on one part of the areas where
members constituting the liquid crystal display device such as the liquid
crystal panel, the diffusion plate, the reinforcing plate, the frame of
the liquid crystal display device and the back surface reflector for the
backlight unit come into contact with each other. The creak reduction
means may be a slippery film whose surface is fluorinated such as a
fluororesin film, a polyacetal resin film, a polyethylene film, and a
silicon coating film, or protrusions or protruding fins, or a friction
reduction means such as silicon oil or fluorine oil, or a mutual
displacement absorbing means such as a flexible sheet.
