With reference to Figure 20 A to Figure 20 D two methods that Electrofax 101 are installed on the extended base 102 are described.
With reference to Figure 20 A and Figure 20 B a kind of installation method is described.
Shown in Figure 20 A, the state that Electrofax 101 is placed up for display surface 117a.On the other hand, shown in Figure 20 B, the rotation section 176 of extended base 102 is rotated, and make the 1st connecting portion 177 and be connected the position of forbidding parts 178 and concern and be moved into the position shown in Figure 19 B.And, under this state, make Electrofax 101 with respect to the accommodation section 173 of extended base 102 by moving shown in the arrow b of Figure 20 B, this Electrofax 101 is contained in the accommodation section 173 of extended base 102.So, shown in dotted line among Figure 20 B, Electrofax 101 is installed on the extended base 102.At this moment, forbid that in connection the front end of parts 178 enters under the state of end difference 156a of camera body 156, the 1st connecting portion 177 links with camera connecting portion 164.
When oppositely being installed in Electrofax 101 on the extended base 102 like this, even receive the process of charging from this DC power supply via not shown DC power connector at Electrofax 101, also can see the display frame of the display surface 117a of display part 117 on one side, operator scheme knob 169, cross action button 170 or other action button are carried out various processing on one side.
With reference to Figure 20 C and Figure 20 D another installation method is described.
Shown in Figure 20 C, make the state of Electrofax 101 for facing up and placing.On the other hand, shown in Figure 20 D, the rotation section 176 of extended base 102 is rotated, make the 1st connecting portion 177 and be connected the position of forbidding parts 178 to concern and be moved into position shown in Figure 19 C.And, under this state, make Electrofax 101 with respect to the accommodation section 173 of extended base 102 according to mobile like that shown in the arrow c of Figure 20 D, thereby Electrofax 101 is received in the accommodation section 173 of extended base 102.So, shown in Figure 20 D dotted line, Electrofax 101 is installed on the extended base 102.At this moment, forbid that in connection the front end of parts 178 enters under the state of end difference 156a of camera body 156, the 1st connecting portion 177 links with camera connecting portion 164.
Like this, even Electrofax 101 is under tow sides any a situation about facing up with respect to the mounting position of the accommodation section 173 of extended base 102, even Electrofax 101 is turned upside down, camera connecting portion 164 is also constant with respect to the height and position of Electrofax 101.Therefore, camera connecting portion 164 does not produce change with the corresponding relation of the plane of rotation 176a of rotation section 176, wherein, the plane of rotation 176a of rotation section 176 is arranged on the central authorities of planar portions 172a, and this planar portions 172a forms the back wall of the accommodation section 173 of extended base 102.
Therefore, make rotation section 176 rotate 180 °, make the 1st connecting portion 177 that is arranged at plane of rotation 176a move to any one party of position shown in position shown in Figure 19 B and Figure 19 C, just can be easily to become the camera connecting portion 164 of Electrofax 101 of any one party of positive and negative corresponding with mounting position.
In addition, consider when being installed to Electrofax 101 on the extended base 102, the relation of the rotation section 176 of the mounting position of Electrofax 101 and extended base 102 becomes Figure 20 A that is unsuitable for connecting and the state shown in Figure 20 D, perhaps becomes the state shown in Figure 20 B and Figure 20 C.At the state shown in Figure 20 A and Figure 20 D, perhaps under the state shown in Figure 20 B and Figure 20 C, under the situation of the installation of carrying out Electrofax 101 and extended base 102, before linking the 1st connecting portion 177 and camera connecting portion 164, connect forbid parts 178 and camera body 156 be not formed with end difference 156a side butt, make and Electrofax 101 further can not be given as security to extended base 102.The incorrect link of having forbidden thus, the 1st connecting portion 177 and camera connecting portion 164 reliably.
Like this, when being installed in Electrofax 101 forwards on the extended base 102, receive the process of charging from the DC power supply via not shown DC power connector at Electrofax 101, even fall on the Electrofax 101 or mistakenly under the butt situation thereon, can prevent that also the display surface 117a of display part 117 is impaired in other object mistake.Therefore, under the state that keeps charging, can feel at ease to go out etc.
Like this, the user can be installed to Electrofax 101 on the extended base 102 with respect to extended base 102 forward or backwards.So, aforementioned camera be provided with state-detection portion 148 can detect the installment state of this moment be forward still oppositely.And CPU140 is provided with the output signal control operation/display part 149 of state-detection portion 148 according to camera, carries out the discernible demonstration that state is set of user.This demonstration is for example undertaken by not shown LED on the main body 172 that is arranged on extended base 102 etc.And under the situation that Electrofax 101 is installed for forward, blue LED is luminous, and under the situation of oppositely installing, red LED is luminous.
In addition, when on information processor 103 extended base 102 being set, the 2TV of extended base 102 covers with the PC terminal 151 conductively-closed plates 152 of the USB connector that terminal 150 and conduct can be connected with PC.
Here, describe the mechanism of the state that is provided with of detected electrons camera 101 in detail with reference to Figure 21 A and Figure 21 B.
Shown in Figure 21 A, Figure 21 B, the part of 176 outer peripheral face has been implemented spline (spline) processing in the rotation section.In addition, be located at the 1st connecting portion 177 of the plane of rotation 176a of rotation section 176 and forbid that with being connected parts 178 are arranged to, the 1st connecting portion 177 apart from the rotation section 176 center of rotation only leave apart from a, forbid that parts 178 only leave distance b apart from its center of rotation and connect.Thus, by the rotation of rotation section 176, the 1st connecting portion 177 forbids that with being connected parts 178 are eccentric rotation.
In addition, shown in Figure 21 B,, connect the front end of forbidding parts 178 than the front end of the 1st connecting portion 177 bulge size d only when when the right side is seen.Thus, set camera body 156 earlier be connected the one side of forbidding parts 178 and contact.And the terminal pins of the 1st connecting portion 177 etc. does not bear burdens.
Rotation section 176 has inner wall part in central authorities.In addition, on forbidding the part of parts 178, connection is provided with notch 179.And, be provided with the mating holes (survey and close the hole) 181 that mounting screw 180 is connected.The head of this mounting screw 180 length down is configured to than the long for example 0.05mm of the length of being located at the mating holes 181 on the rotation section 176.In order to prevent that this mounting screw 180 from coming off from spot-facing, and be engaged on the nut 182 that is fixed on fastening usefulness.On the outer surface of rotation section 176,,, steel ball 183a, 183b have been imbedded respectively with respect to length direction, in other words on the position with respect to the moving direction shown in described arrow b, described arrow c skew ormal weight in the positions of distance 180 degree.
On the other hand, a pair of leaf spring 184a, 184b are installed on the main body 172 of extended base 102, this a pair of leaf spring 184a, 184b state for tilting slightly towards upside at assigned position by Screw 185a, 185b.On leaf spring 184a, 184b, be respectively equipped with the hole that falls into steel ball 183a, 183b.In addition, mechanical type microswitch 188a, the 188b that contacts respectively with each leaf spring 184 is installed on the main body 172 of extended base 102.
In addition, a pair of leaf spring 184a, 184b are to be arranged on the ormal weight position with the opposed mode of steel ball 183a, 183b.In addition, as shown in figure 22, setting has the protuberance 187 of globular part on the front end of a pair of leaf spring (only representing a leaf spring in this figure) 186a, and the mechanical type microswitch 188 that contacts with leaf spring 186a can be installed on the main body 172 of extended base 102.But, in this case, be interval with V-shaped groove (still, be positioned at relatively this drawing towards the position of vertical offset) with 180 degree on the outer surface of rotation section 176.
Action and effect to these mechanisms describe.
Rotation section 176 is rotated, so that its installation direction with Electrofax 101 is consistent.So, shown in Figure 21 A, utilize the pressing force of leaf spring 184 to make steel ball 183 enter the hole of leaf spring 184, perhaps make the globular part of protuberance 187 enter V-shaped groove as shown in figure 22.Thus, rotation section 176 is fixed with desirable rotary state.When rotation section 176 was stationary state, any one among a pair of microswitch 188a, the 188b pressed to leaf spring 186, switches to on-state from off-state.
Promptly, detecting with the state that is provided with of Electrofax 101 by microswitch 188a is the stationary state of the corresponding rotation section of forward 176, and detecting with the state that is provided with of Electrofax 101 by another microswitch 188b is the stationary state of reverse corresponding rotation section 176.And CPU140 detects the output signal from a pair of microswitch 188a, 188b, according to this output signal control operation/display part 149, carries out the color code corresponding with the state that is provided with of Electrofax 101 and shows.Therefore, the user can be by watching color code to show judging the state that is provided with of Electrofax 101, particularly has in darker place to show by color code and can easily carry out corresponding advantage.
The mechanism of the state that is provided with that in addition, can following formation detected electrons camera 101.
Other structure with reference to the state that is provided with of Figure 23 A and Figure 23 B explanation detected electrons camera 101.
Shown in Figure 23 A and Figure 23 B, on outer surface, implemented the plane of rotation 176a side of the rotation section 176 of spline processing, as hereinbefore, be provided with the 1st connecting portion 177 and forbid parts 178 with being connected.On this rotation section 176 and plane of rotation plane of rotation 176a opposition side, imbedded steel ball 190 at two positions.And, with the side of the main body 172 of the opposed extended base 102 of this plane of rotation on, be provided with the hemispheric recesses in two places (depressed part) 191.And, on the central shaft of rotation section 176, be combined with axial region 192 integratedly.On the end of axial region 192, be equipped with E shape circle 193.This E shape circle 193 is configured under the state on the axial region of giving prominence to from the inner face of the main body 172 of extended base 102 192 and is configured in the end will compress spring 194.Thus, between the inner face of main body 172 and E shape circle 193, compression spring 194 is installed.By screwing togather, the lid 195 that will be used to hide E shape circle 193 and compress spring 194 is arranged on the main body 172 of extended base 102.
According to this structure, the pushing force that the user overcomes compression spring 194 makes rotation section 176 be in the state of for example only having extracted out to the left apart from e shown in the arrow of Figure 23 A.So steel ball 190 becomes the state that the hemispherical recesses 191 from the side of the main body 172 of being located at extended base 102 is deviate from.Under this state,, can switch the stationary state of this rotation section 176 by making rotation section 176 rotations.And when the stationary state of rotation section 176 is switched, promptly because the active force steel ball 190 of compression spring 194 when being housed in the recess 191, rotation section 176 is displacement e and become the state of rotation section 176 and main body 172 butts only.Under the state of this butt, axial region 192 is displacement e only also.At this moment, can prevent the end face 192a of axial region 192 and the inner face 195a butt of cover 195.
In addition, in this structure, formed hemispheric recess 191, but the shape of recess 191 also can be for having rail (rail) groove of the long semi-circular section of crossing over 180 degree.At this moment, can only make the two ends of railtrack grooves is than the hemisphere terminal point portion about the dark again 0.5mm of railtrack grooves.Under this situation, can the side of rotation section 176 and and the end face of the opposed main body 172 in this side between be not provided with and make rotation section 176 rotations with gap.Thus, rotation section 176 can be rotated with stopping, is more prone to handle for the user.
As the mechanism that carries out position probing, shown in Figure 23 B, on main body 172, through hole is set, a pair of magnetic induction sensor 196 is positioned in this through hole.And magnetic induction sensor 196 is configured on the printing substrate 196a.Magnetic induction sensor 196 detects the permanent magnet 197a at two places of the outer surface of imbedding corresponding rotation section 176 respectively, any one party of 197b.And, the output signal that CPU 140 detects from magnetic induction sensor 196, according to this output signal, control operation/display part 149 carries out showing corresponding to the color code that state is set.Therefore, the user can show the state that is provided with of judging Electrofax 101 by seeing color code, particularly has in darker place to show the advantage that can easily carry out correspondence by color code.
In addition, the mechanism of the state that is provided with that also can formation detected electrons camera 101 as follows.
Other structures of the state that is provided with of detected electrons camera 101 are described with reference to Figure 24 A to Figure 24 C.
In this mechanism, not the structure that end difference 156a is set on Electrofax 101, but the structure liken to the also short jut 198 of the 1st connecting portion 177 of the connector of USB/HUB104 is set.Therewith accordingly, on extended base 102, on the side that side is set of the 1st connecting portion 177 of rotation section 176, be provided with depressed part 199.Other structure forbids the parts 178 except that removing to connect, with in Figure 23 A, Figure 23 B, illustrate the same.
Like this, state with locking rotation section 176 inserts the 1st connecting portion 177 with camera connecting portion 164, jut 198 with camera body 156 when insertion is finished is entrenched in the depressed part 199 that is arranged in 176 sides, rotation section, fixes Electrofax 101 thus.
Next, use Figure 25 that one example of the change action of the extended base 102 that carries out when Electrofax 101 is installed is described.
