An electric shock is avoided by prohibiting a finger or hand from touching an electrode portion of a liquid crystal backlight socket or a connector electrode of a backlight lamp. Further, the breakage of the backlight lamp, which would be otherwise caused due to vibration or shock transmitted through a structure in which the socket is rigidly fixed to a liquid crystal circuit board, is avoided. The backlight socket includes a pair of leaf spring contacts each having a backlight connector electrode connecting portion, an inner insulator and an outer insulator. Each contact is fixed to the inner insulator and the outer insulator so that the inner insulator is elastically supported inside the outer insulator by the pair of contacts. Further, the backlight connector electrode connecting portions of the contacts are disposed in a manner so as not to be exposed to the exterior of the inner insulator. |
