The display unit comprises a display device such as liquid crystal cell or the like; and a secondary battery disposed to a rear side of the display device. A heat shielding layer having a thermal conductivity of at most 5 W/mK, preferably at most 1 W/mK is formed as a heat shielding plate between the display device and the secondary battery, and the display device and the secondary battery are integrally assembled to form a module structure. According to the above structure of the present invention, since the display device such as liquid crystal cell or the like and the secondary battery are integrally assembled to form a module structure, the display unit can be made compact and thin to attain a light weight.
