Kang, in view of Callens teaches the method for improving structural support for a display apparatus, utilizing a pressure sensitive adhesive system for adsorption of forces, reducing overall defects due to vibrations and varied thermal expansion coefficients between material layers. Also, Kang IVO Callens teaches an assembly wherein a circuit is located in a recessed portion of the chassis, the arrangement allowing for a circuit to be located between the chassis and a display panel. Won discloses a display assembly method wherein two bodies, namely the first and second substrate, are spaced apart by a spacer, then bonded to each other by use of a sealant. Thus, it would have been obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date to utilize the spacer and sealant, disclosed by Won, and apply the elements to the display panel, chassis, and circuit board arrangement of Kang, IVO Callens, in order to provide greater structural support to the circuit board as the spacers would bear compressive loads.

the second adhesive having a higher adhesive strength than the first adhesive member, wherein the second adhesive also bonds the front surface of the chassis to the back side of the flat panel display (Kang teaches the two different types of adhesives while Kim teaches the specific location and placement of an adhesive. Because the adhesive at the these locations are used for securing the chassis and display panel together, a POSITA would have recognized the benefit of employing the relatively stronger of the two adhesives to the top edge as it is known to provide greater support for the forces/moment caused by possible deformation and orientation of the display apparatus. Thus, selecting Kang’s first adhesive 151 to be located at the top edge would have yielded no more than predictable results, being a routine selection of adhesives).
(Also refer to the rejection of claim 7, supra, as it is applicable to the rejection of claim 11 in the manner of providing specific locations for the adhesive material).
