TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a handle device for video equipment.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a handle device for video equipment, a notch and a cut-out are provided on a metal housing, and a handle of a resin molded product is mounted on a metal shaft. The load applied to the portion is received by the metal housing (for example, see Patent Document 1).

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, by attaching notches and notches to the conventional metal housing and attaching the handle of the resin molded product with a metal shaft, the load applied to the handle attachment part when carrying heavy video equipment can be reduced. In a handle device having a structure to be received by a housing, in a thin TV in which an exterior housing is formed by a resin molded product such as a liquid crystal television or a plasma television, which has been increasingly shipped in recent years, the exterior housing is a resin molded product. Therefore, the structure cannot be adopted unless metal reinforcement parts are added.In particular, when a retractable grip device is adopted, the impact at the time of lifting and the load applied to the grip mounting part will be In this case, whitening, cracking and breakage occur and cannot be detected. Therefore, it is necessary to attach a metal reinforcing part for receiving the impact applied to the handle mounting portion and the weight of the device.
[0005]
An object of the present invention is to ensure the strength of a retractable handle of a flat-panel television having a housing formed of a resin molded product.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
As a means for solving the above problems, the present invention provides a notch on the upper right and left of a shield metal fitting of a chassis inside a housing, fits a U-shaped handle there, and carries a flat-screen TV. The handle device has a structure in which the weight sometimes applied to the handle is received by the shield fitting.
[0007]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The present invention provides cutouts on the upper left and right of the shield metal fittings of the chassis inside the housing of the flat-screen TV, fits a U-shaped handle there, and reduces the weight that the handle is hung when carrying the flat-screen TV, By using a handle device having a structure that is received by the shield metal, a thin TV using a housing made of a resin molded product can be safely and securely carried without adding a metal part for reinforcement. I can do it.
[0008]
Hereinafter, a retractable handle device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment)
1 is a perspective view of the liquid crystal television of the present invention as viewed from the back, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of FIG. 1 with a back cover removed, FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a main part of a handle mounting portion of FIG. Is an enlarged view of a handle mounting portion of the back cover, and FIG. 5 is a view of the handle.
[0010]
1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, reference numeral 1 denotes a liquid crystal television, 2 denotes a cabinet, 3 denotes a back cover, 3A denotes a guide rib, 3B denotes a cutout for a handle, 4 denotes a liquid crystal panel, and 5 denotes a shield. 5A is a handle opening (notch), 5B is a handle stopper, 5C is a screw stopper, 6 is a handle, 6A is a stopper, 7 is a chassis, and 8 is a screw. The configuration of the retractable handle device configured as described above will be described below.
[0011]
The schematic structure of the liquid crystal television 1 according to the present invention is as follows. The liquid crystal panel 4 is mounted on the cabinet 2 of a resin molded product as the front housing, and the chassis 7 and the metal shield 5 covering the chassis 7 are mounted on the back of the liquid crystal panel 4 with screws 8, and then the resin as the rear housing is formed. This is a structure in which a molded back cover 3 is attached. In the upper part of the shield, an inverted T-shaped handle opening 5A is provided at a position symmetrical with the center line, and the inverted T-shaped stopper 6A portion of the handle 6 is inserted and fitted into the handle opening 5A.
[0012]
When the handle 6 is pulled up, the stopper 6A of the handle 6 hits the handle stopper 5B of the shield 5, and the load applied to the handle 6 when carrying the liquid crystal television 1 is received by the handle stopper 5B. The upper portion of the handle opening 5A of the shield 5 is further bent at L so as to be parallel to the rear surface of the liquid crystal panel 4, and forms a screw fixing portion 5C. Fixed to.
[0013]
As described above, the shield 5 for receiving the load applied when carrying the liquid crystal television 1 with the handle 6 is attached to the liquid crystal panel 4 occupying most of the weight of the liquid crystal television 1 by the screw 8. When carrying the liquid crystal television 1 with the handle 6, the liquid crystal panel 4 is directly held.
[0014]
Next, a guide rib 3A is provided on the back cover 3, which is the rear housing, at a portion covering the handle opening 5A of the shield 5 so as to close the handle opening 5A, thereby restricting the escape of the handle 6 to the rear. ing. Further, the guide for raising and storing the handle 6 is formed on the side wall of the handle cutout 3B of the back cover 3.
[0015]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, in a thin TV using a housing made of a resin molded product, a thin TV can be safely and securely provided without adding a metal part for reinforcement to a handle mounting portion for carrying. You can carry it.
