(Embodiment 3)
The console of the vehicle conforms to the DIN standard, and has conventionally been defined by the 2DIN standard. Along with this, the standard of the display of the car navigation also conforms to this 2DIN. However, in recent years, the widening of the display has progressed, and as shown in FIG. 7A, a display 71 of a standard larger than 2DIN has been provided.
[0040]
In the case of such a standard, the storage unit behind the display has a large standard in accordance with the standard of the future enlargement, but the conventional car navigation device 150 is still 2DIN. It was in a state, and usually buttons for operation were arranged in empty spaces on the left and right sides of the storage unit.
[0041]
Therefore, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 7B, the operation buttons arranged on the left and right of the car navigation device main body 120 are removed, and the display 71 is operated by a touch panel operation. A printing unit 81 and a paper feeding unit 82 made of, for example, roll paper are arranged. In this embodiment, the printer 80 is used vertically in consideration of the installation space. FIG. 7A shows a state in which the display 71 stands upright in front of the storage section 31. FIG. 7B shows the car navigation device 150 and the printer 80 with the display 71 turned down.
[0042]
As described above, in this embodiment, the printing unit and the paper feeding unit of the printer are stored in the storage units on the left and right sides in the width direction of the storage unit with the vehicle-mounted electronic device behind the wide screen display interposed therebetween. It is now possible to mount the printer separately for each unit.

FIG. 9 is a configuration diagram showing a paper transport mechanism of the printer. In this embodiment, the paper transport of the printer 80 is driven by using the vertical movement of the tilt of the display 71. That is, the printer 80 is built in the car navigation device 150. In FIG. 9, the transport roller (not shown) of the printing unit 81 of the printer 80 is connected to the gear 91 via a one-way clutch (not shown). And meshed.
[0047]
A lower end of a display 71 is rotatably attached to one end 92a of the rack 92, and the rack 92 is rotated by a pinion 94 interlocked with the driving of a motor 93, as indicated by arrows 1 and 2 in FIG. The movement is repeated in the longitudinal direction. In this movement, the display 71 makes a state transition to a prone state in response to the movement of the rack 92 in the direction of arrow 1, and the display 71 stands up in response to the movement of the rack 92 in the direction of arrow 2. State transition to the state.
[0048]
Since the roller of the printing unit 81 is engaged with the rack 92 via the one-way clutch and the gear 91 that rotates only in one direction, the roller does not rotate with respect to the movement of the rack 92 in the direction of arrow 2, The rack 92 rotates in response to the movement of the rack 92 in the direction of arrow 1, and conveys the paper A in the direction of arrow.
[0049]
The user controls driving of the motor 93 by using, for example, a hard switch or a touch switch provided on the display 71 or an operation panel 70 (see FIG. 1) provided below the storage section 32 of the instrument panel 30. The tilt operation of the display 71 is repeated until the printing section 81 finishes outputting the sheet A. The paper transport mechanism and the printing unit 81 are stored in the storage unit 32 of the instrument panel 30.
[0050]
As described above, in this embodiment, the printing unit and the tilt type display unit of the printer incorporated in the car navigation device 150 are driven by the same drive unit, so that the drive units can be shared and the car navigation system can be shared. The device 150 and the printer 80 can be integrated. Thereby, the space can be effectively used. In addition, by using a transmission mechanism that selectively transmits the driving force of the motor 93 to the rack 92 or the gear 91, a configuration that also serves as the motor 93 is also possible. In this case, useless movement of the display unit or the like is prevented. Disappears.
