Description

本発明は映像を表示するモニターやテレビジョン受像機などの表示部を備えた本体を支持する脚部に対して前記本体が前後方向に傾動可能とするヒンジ部を備えた電子機器に関する。   The present invention relates to an electronic apparatus including a hinge portion that allows the main body to tilt in the front-rear direction with respect to a leg portion that supports a main body including a display unit such as a monitor or a television receiver that displays an image.

近年のヒンジ部を備えた電子機器として、例えば、高さ寸法及び幅寸法に比べて奥行き寸法が小さく、液晶等の薄型ディスプレイを備えた本体の下縁に脚部が設けられた液晶テレビジョン受像機などがある。このような電子機器には、前記本体と前記脚部との間にヒンジ部を設けており、前記ヒンジ部によって本体を脚部に対し前後方向へ傾動可能としている。このようなヒンジ部を備えた電子機器の構造について、既知の技術として次のようなものがある。   As an electronic device equipped with a hinge part in recent years, for example, a liquid crystal television receiver having a depth dimension smaller than a height dimension and a width dimension, and a leg provided on the lower edge of a main body equipped with a thin display such as a liquid crystal display There are machines. In such an electronic device, a hinge portion is provided between the main body and the leg portion, and the main body can be tilted in the front-rear direction with respect to the leg portion by the hinge portion. Regarding the structure of an electronic device having such a hinge portion, there are the following known techniques.

特許文献1には、本体の下縁に脚部が枢支部を介して結合されるとともに、本体背面の略下半部に脚部の収納部分が形成され、本体を後方一杯まで倒したときに前記収納部分に脚部が収納されて、本体の背面と脚部の底面とが略同一平面をなすように形成された構造が記載されている。   In Patent Document 1, when a leg is coupled to the lower edge of the main body via a pivotal support, and a storage portion for the leg is formed in a substantially lower half of the back of the main body, A structure is described in which the leg portion is housed in the housing portion, and the back surface of the main body and the bottom surface of the leg portion are formed in substantially the same plane.

また、特許文献2には、本体と、本体を支持する脚部と、を含む電子機器であって、本体と脚部との間に介するヒンジ部と、所定の角度範囲内でヒンジ部が脚部の板面に対して回動可能にヒンジ部の一端と脚部とを回動可能に連結する脚部側枢支部と、脚部側枢支部と離隔した位置でヒンジ部の他端と本体を相互傾動可能に連結する本体側枢支部と、脚部に対するヒンジ部の回動を本体の傾動に伝達する補助ヒンジ部材と、を含む構造が記載されている。   Patent Document 2 discloses an electronic device including a main body and a leg portion that supports the main body, the hinge portion interposed between the main body and the leg portion, and the hinge portion having a leg within a predetermined angle range. A leg-side pivot for pivotally connecting one end of the hinge and the leg so as to be rotatable relative to the plate surface of the part, and the other end of the hinge and the main body at a position separated from the leg-side pivot There is described a structure including a main-body-side pivot support section that couples the two pivotable to each other and an auxiliary hinge member that transmits the rotation of the hinge section relative to the leg section to the tilt of the main body.

特許文献1の構造によれば、机上や床面などの水平面に載置することが可能な状態からほぼ垂直の壁面に設置することが可能な状態に変化させ壁面に設置する場合、脚部を本体背面の収納部分に収納するために前記本体を後方一杯まで倒し、専用の金具を取り付けるだけの簡単な作業で済むことから、機器の使い勝手が向上する。しかし、前述の構造ではほぼ垂直の壁面に設置する状態で脚部が本体背面の収納部分に収納されたままとなるため、本体と脚部を結合する枢支部による前記本体の傾動動作が不可能となり、ほぼ垂直の壁面に設置した状態における本体の角度調整が困難となる。   According to the structure of Patent Document 1, when changing from a state where it can be placed on a horizontal surface such as a desk or floor to a state where it can be placed on a substantially vertical wall, In order to store in the storage portion on the back of the main body, the main body is tilted all the way to the rear, and a simple operation of attaching a dedicated metal fitting is sufficient, so that the usability of the device is improved. However, in the above-described structure, the leg portion remains stored in the storage portion on the back of the main body when installed on a substantially vertical wall surface, so that the main body cannot be tilted by a pivotal support portion that connects the main body and the leg portion. Thus, it is difficult to adjust the angle of the main body when it is installed on a substantially vertical wall surface.

特許文献2の構造によれば、本体と脚部の間で複数の枢支部を有するヒンジ部を設けているため、机上や床面などの水平面に載置することが可能な状態からほぼ垂直の壁面に設置することが可能な状態に変化させる際、本体と脚部の着脱の作業を行うことなく、ヒンジ部の各枢支部を回動させて本体の背面側に脚部を位置することが出来、さらにほぼ垂直の壁面に設置した状態で本体とヒンジ部の間に介在する枢支部によって前記本体の角度調整を行うことが可能となる。しかし、本体と脚部の間に介在するヒンジ部を複数の枢支部を含む多数の部品により構成することから、機器が高価となる虞がある。   According to the structure of Patent Document 2, since a hinge portion having a plurality of pivotal support portions is provided between the main body and the leg portion, it is almost vertical from a state where it can be placed on a horizontal surface such as a desktop or floor surface. When changing to a state where it can be installed on the wall surface, the pivot part of the hinge part can be rotated to position the leg part on the back side of the main body without performing the work of attaching and detaching the main body and the leg part. In addition, the angle of the main body can be adjusted by a pivotal support portion interposed between the main body and the hinge portion in a state where the main body is installed on a substantially vertical wall surface. However, since the hinge part interposed between the main body and the leg part is composed of a large number of parts including a plurality of pivot parts, there is a risk that the equipment becomes expensive.

本発明は上述した点に鑑みてなされたものであって、その目的とするところは、本体と脚部の間にヒンジ部を介在させた電子機器において、机上や床面などの水平面に載置することが可能な状態からほぼ垂直の壁面に設置することが可能な状態に変化させる際の作業を容易に行うことが出来、水平面に載置することが可能な状態とほぼ垂直の壁面に設置することが可能な状態の何れの状態においても、所定範囲内で本体の傾動を可能とし、且つ、所定範囲以上の傾動を規制する構造を安価に実現したヒンジ部を備えた電子機器を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to place an electronic device having a hinge portion between a main body and a leg portion on a horizontal surface such as a desk or a floor surface. It is possible to easily perform work when changing from a state that can be performed to a state that can be installed on a substantially vertical wall surface, and can be placed on a horizontal surface that can be placed on a horizontal surface Provided is an electronic device provided with a hinge portion that enables a tilting of a main body within a predetermined range and a structure that regulates the tilting beyond a predetermined range at a low cost in any of the states that can be performed.

In addition, in this embodiment, the bolts 43a and 43b are inserted into the second through holes 424a and 424b from the outside of the leg side support side parts 423a and 423b, and the screw parts of the bolts 43a and 43b are supported on the leg side side. The structure fits inside the portion 42. This is not only to avoid danger when the screw portions of the bolts 43a and 43b protrude outside the leg-side support portion 42, but also to reduce the size of the hinge portion 4 in the width direction as much as possible. It has a structure. In this embodiment, the case where the bolts 43a and 43b and the nuts 44a and 44b are used as the pivot support members 45a and 45b has been described. However, for example, a rivet may be used instead of the bolts 43a and 43b and the nuts 44a and 44b. May be used, and may be appropriately selected within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention.

The first notch 414 in the present embodiment is provided with a gap of 2 ° in the front and 10 ° in the rear with respect to the convex portion 461 to be loosely fitted.

図11は本発明の実施例における本体の下面側に脚部が位置する状態から本体の背面側に脚部が位置する状態へ回動する途中の状態のヒンジ部単体を示す断面図であって、図11(a)は縦断面図、図11(b)は本体側支持部と脚部側支持部の連結するヒンジ部支点近傍の横断面図である。図10の状態からコイルスプリング47の付勢力に抗してロック部材46を凸部461が第1の切欠き414から外れ、凹部462が前記第1の切欠き414に位置するまで摺動させる。前述の操作を行うことによって、ロック部材46による本体側支持部41の傾動が可能な範囲の規制が解除され、図11で示すように、前記本体側支持部41は脚部側支持部42に対し枢支部材45a,45bによって前記本体側支持部41と前記脚部側支持部42を連結するヒンジ部支点で生じる回転摩擦力を超過する抗力によって本体側支持部41を回動することが出来る。   FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view showing the hinge part alone in a state where the leg part is located on the lower surface side of the main body and the leg part is located on the back side of the main body in the embodiment of the present invention. 11 (a) is a longitudinal sectional view, and FIG. 11 (b) is a transverse sectional view in the vicinity of a hinge fulcrum where the main body side support part and the leg part side support part are connected.
