The second movable body 25 is configured to be line-symmetric with the second movable body 20 with respect to the horizontal axis BB, and the second movable body 26 is aligned with the vertical axis A
A is configured symmetrically with respect to A with respect to the second movable body 20, and the second movable body 27 is configured the same as the second movable body 25.

In this manner, the second movable body 25 is connected to the vertical movable body 16 and the horizontal movable body 15, respectively, and the second movable body 26 is connected to the horizontal movable body 14 and the vertical movable body 17, respectively. The second movable body 27 is connected to the vertical movable body 17 and the horizontal movable body 15, respectively.

The frame 28 is formed in a frame shape having an opening 29 when viewed from the front, and is opened when viewed from the back.
(See FIGS. 1A and 1B). Sectional view (Fig. 1
As seen from (b)), the opening 29 and the window 30 are provided stepwise, but if necessary, the opening 29 and the window 30 may be formed identically.

As described above, the frame 28 houses the first movable body 13. That is, the outer shape of the first movable body 13 is
The first movable body 13 is adjusted to a predetermined size and fixed to the frame 28 so as to substantially contact the window 30. For example, a small screw (not shown) is provided to penetrate a portion where the second movable bodies 20 and 25 and the first movable body 13 overlap with each other and the vertical portion 31 of the frame 28. The display device 1 is configured by the above components.

Next, according to FIG. 1 to FIG.
Will be described. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the sizes of the first movable body 13 and the second movable bodies 20, 25, 26, and 27 are adjusted.

Initially, the combination of the frame 3, the first movable body 13, and the second movable bodies 20, 25, 26, 27 is at the minimum position (see FIGS. 2A and 2B). That is, button 9
The first engaging portion 11 provided on the first movable body 13 is engaged with the second uppermost engaging portion 18 of the plurality of second engaging portions 18 provided on the first movable body 13. . Therefore, the size of the outer shape of the first movable body 13 is the minimum, and is the same size as the frame 3.

Next, when the window 30 of the picture frame 28 is large, the user first presses the push portion 12 of the button 9a. as a result,
The button 9a rotates clockwise around the base of the support portion 10 to disengage the first engagement portion 11 and the second engagement portion 18 (see FIG. 2C). Then, by the force of the spring 5, FIG.
As shown in (d), the horizontal movable body 14 and the second movable body 2
0 and 26 project upward (because the movable bodies 14 and 20, 26 are connected). At this time, the storage section 24 of the second movable body 20 and the storage section 24 of the second movable body 26 also extend.

Next, the user considers the difference between the size of the window 30 and the size (outer shape) of the frame 3, and considers the movable members 14, 20,
Determine the protrusion distance of 26, so that the protrusion distance can be obtained,
The upper surface of the horizontal movable body 14 is pushed. At that time, the first engagement portion 1
1 is engaged with, for example, the second engagement portion 18 located at the lowest position.

When the user presses the push portion 12 of the button 9b, the engagement between the first engagement portion 11 and the second engagement portion 18 is released, and the movable members 15, 25, and 27 are moved downward. (Because the movable bodies 15 and 25 and 27 are connected). At this time, the respective storage portions 24 of the second movable bodies 25 and 27 also extend.

Next, when the user pushes the bottom surface of the horizontal movable member 15 upward, the first engagement portion 11 engages, for example, the second engagement portion 18 located at the uppermost position. As a result, the movable body 1
The positions 4, 20, 26 and 15, 25, 27 are maximized (extended) in the vertical direction (see FIG. 3A).

Next, when the user presses the push portion 12 of the button 9c, the engagement between the first engagement portion 11 and the second engagement portion is released, and the movable bodies 17, 26, 27 are moved rightward. It protrudes (because the movable bodies 17 and 26 and 27 are connected). At this time, the respective storage portions 22 of the second movable bodies 26 and 27 also extend. Then, when the user pushes the right side surface of the vertical movable body 17 to the left, the first engagement portion 11 is engaged with, for example, the second engagement portion 18 located at the rightmost position.

When the user presses the push portion 12 of the button 9d, the engagement between the first engagement portion 11 and the second engagement portion 18 is released, and the movable bodies 16, 20, 25 project to the left. (Because the movable bodies 16 and 20, 25 are connected). At this time, the respective storage portions 22 of the second movable bodies 20 and 25 also extend.

Next, when the user pushes the left side surface of the vertical movable body 16 rightward, the first engaging portion 11 is engaged with, for example, the second engaging portion 18 located at the leftmost position. As a result, the movable body 1
The positions 7, 26, 27 and 16, 20, 25 are the positions expanded to the maximum in the left-right direction (see FIG. 3B). In this way, the movable bodies 14, 20, 16, 25, 15, 27, 1
7 and 26 are the maximum expanded positions (outermost lines in FIG. 3B).

Next, the user attaches the display body 3 to the frame body 3 and penetrates the portion where the second movable bodies 20 and 25 and the first movable body 13 overlap and the vertical portion 31 of the picture frame 28. Therefore, when the small screws are connected, all parts are completed. Thus, the first
By engaging the engaging portion 11 with the predetermined second engaging portion 18, the movable bodies 14, 20, 25, 15, 27, 17, 26
The size of the external shape can be arbitrarily adjusted.

[0037]

As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the display, the frame accommodating the display, and the first frame provided on the frame are provided.
A movable body, and the first movable body is configured to be able to expand and contract in an outward direction of the frame. With this configuration, even if the size of the window provided in the frame is variously different, the gap between the frame and the window is filled with the first movable body that can be extended and contracted. Therefore, frames having windows of various sizes can be easily combined with one display.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the first engaging portion is provided on the frame, the plurality of second engaging portions are provided on the first movable body, and the first engaging portion and the predetermined second engaging portion are provided. Is engaged. As a result, the first
Since the size (external dimensions) of the movable body can be adjusted to an arbitrary size, the movable body can be brought into contact with a window of any size.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, the frame is provided with a button, and the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion are engaged and released according to the operation state of the button. In this way, the engagement and release are performed by operating the buttons, and the outer dimensions of the first movable body are changed, so that the adjustment work is facilitated.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the first movable body comprises a horizontal movable body located in the horizontal direction of the window and a vertical movable body located in the vertical direction of the window. And a movable second movable body connected to the vertical movable body. In this manner, a frame-shaped movable body is formed by the horizontal movable body, the vertical movable body, and the second movable body, and the movable body can be enlarged or reduced by moving the movable body in parallel. The gap between the frame and the window can be easily and accurately filled by contacting the window.

According to the present invention, the display is constituted by a liquid crystal display. As described above, when a relatively thick liquid crystal display device is mounted, the gap between the window and the display body can be filled by the first movable body whose external dimensions can be adjusted. Therefore, there is no need to prepare a wall material in accordance with the size of the gap as in the related art, and the labor can be saved.
