There is disclosed a liquid crystal display apparatus including a main
body and a swivel mechanism, where the main body is capable of smoothly
swiveling. A countersunk hole is formed in a bottom plate member as
follows: When a through-hole for inserting a screw is formed in a metal
sheet to be a bottom plate member, there is also concurrently formed an
accommodating hole for accommodating flow of the material forming the
metal sheet upon plastic forming or pressing which is performed
subsequently for forming a countersink, and then the countersink is
formed at an open end of the through-hole by pressing. It is preferable
that a plurality of the accommodating holes are formed around the
through-hole.
