Description

本発明は、身体に装着した状態で操作が可能な携帯型情報装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a portable information device that can be operated while worn on the body.

身体に装着した状態で操作が可能な携帯型情報装置には、ウェアラブルPCと呼ばれるものがある。一般に、身体に装着して使用される携帯型情報装置は、携帯が容易となるように小型に構成されている。   Among portable information devices that can be operated while worn on the body, there is a so-called wearable PC. Generally, a portable information device that is used while being worn on the body is configured in a small size so that it can be easily carried.

従来では手首装着型の装置などが考えられている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。特許文献1に記載された装置は、インターフェース・エレクトロニクスと、インターフェース・エレクトロニクスを実質的に内包するハウジング、即ち、ベース構造体と、RFインターフェース/トランシーバーとを有し、このRFインターフェース/トランシーバーを取付け構造体(例:リストバンド)へ取り付けるように構成されている。特許文献1の装置では、使用者に対してリストバンドにより装着する。そして、手首に装着した状態で、例えば使用者の左の手のひらを顔の左側に当てることで使用される。
特表2001−523080公報
Conventionally, a wrist-worn device has been considered (for example, see Patent Document 1). The device described in Patent Document 1 includes an interface electronics, a housing that substantially encloses the interface electronics, that is, a base structure, and an RF interface / transceiver. It is configured to be attached to the body (eg wristband). In the device of Patent Document 1, the user wears a wristband. And it is used by, for example, placing the left palm of the user against the left side of the face while wearing the wrist.
Special table 2001-523080 gazette

上記従来のウェアラブルPC(携帯型情報装置)では、小型に構成されているために手首に装着した状態で単に顔の左側に当てることで簡単に使用することができる。   Since the conventional wearable PC (portable information device) is small in size, it can be easily used by simply placing it on the left side of the face while wearing on the wrist.

しかしながら、手首などに装着して使用することができないような、ある程度の大きさと重量がある情報機器(パーソナルコンピュータなど)を携帯するためには、情報機器を安全に保持した状態で携帯できるようにしなければならない。   However, in order to carry an information device (such as a personal computer) having a certain size and weight that cannot be used by attaching it to a wrist or the like, the information device must be carried in a safe state. There must be.

例えば、情報機器を袋状となった部分に収納することで、情報機器を保護した状態で携帯することができる。しかしながら、情報機器を使用する場合には、袋状となった部分から取り出して使用可能な状態にするといった作業が必要となるため、携帯したままで使用できなくなり、またその作業は繁雑となってしまう。   For example, by storing the information device in a bag-shaped portion, the information device can be carried in a protected state. However, when using information equipment, it is necessary to take it out of the bag-like part and make it usable, so it cannot be used while being carried around, and the work becomes complicated. End up.

本発明は上記事情に着目してなされたもので、その目的とするところは、携帯を容易にすると共に、携帯しながら使用可能な状態に簡単に変更することが可能な携帯型情報装置を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made paying attention to the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a portable information device that can be easily carried and can be easily changed to a usable state while being carried. There is to do.

上記目的を達成するために本発明は、身体に装着した状態で操作が可能な携帯型情報装置において、装置本体部を装置上面部が開放された状態で収納する本体収納部材と、前記本体収納部材に取り付けられ、前記装置上面部を覆う第1の状態と前記装置上面部を開放する第2の状態に開閉可能な蓋部材と、前記蓋部材に取り付けられた身体に装着するための装着部材と、前記蓋部材が前記第2の状態にある時に、前記蓋部材と前記装置本体部を収納した前記本体収納部材との間隔を規定する規定部材とを具備するようにしたものである。   In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a portable information device that can be operated while worn on the body, a main body storage member that stores the main body of the device with the upper surface of the device open, and the main body storage A lid member attached to the member and capable of opening and closing in a first state covering the upper surface portion of the device and a second state opening the upper surface portion of the device, and a mounting member for mounting on the body attached to the lid member And a defining member that defines an interval between the lid member and the main body housing member that houses the apparatus main body when the lid member is in the second state.

好ましくは、前記蓋部材を、前記装置下面側を覆う第3の状態にして固定する固定手段をさらに具備する。また、前記装置本体上面部にタッチパネル10aを設ける。   Preferably, there is further provided fixing means for fixing the lid member in a third state covering the lower surface side of the apparatus. A touch panel 10a is provided on the upper surface of the apparatus main body.

本発明によれば、身体に装着するための装着部材を蓋部材に取り付けることで、蓋部材を装置上面部が開放可能な状態にすることで、装置本体部が収納された本体収納部材が装置の自重により蓋部材から離れ、蓋部材と本体収納部材との間隔が規定部材により規定されて装置を使用可能な状態にすることができる。すなわち、蓋部材を第1の状態とすることで携帯を容易な状態にすることができ、蓋部材を第2の状態にすることで、携帯しながら使用可能な状態に簡単に変更することが可能となる。   According to the present invention, by attaching a mounting member for mounting on the body to the lid member, the lid member can be opened so that the upper surface of the apparatus can be opened, so that the main body storage member in which the apparatus main body is stored is the device. It is possible to leave the lid member by its own weight, and the space between the lid member and the main body storage member is defined by the defining member so that the apparatus can be used. That is, the lid member can be easily carried by setting it to the first state, and the lid member can be easily changed to a usable state while being carried by setting the lid member to the second state. It becomes possible.

以下、図面を参照して本発明の実施の形態について説明する。
図1及び図2は、本実施形態におけるウェアラブルPC1(携帯型情報装置)の構成を示す外観図である。図1は、ウェアラブルPC1が携帯されている時の状態を示し、図2は、ウェアラブルPC1が携帯しながら使用される時の状態を示している。
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
1 and 2 are external views showing a configuration of a wearable PC 1 (portable information device) in the present embodiment. FIG. 1 shows a state when the wearable PC 1 is being carried, and FIG. 2 shows a state when the wearable PC 1 is being used while being carried.

本実施形態におけるウェアラブルPC1の装置本体10は、例えばある程度の大きさと重量を有しており、例えば手首に装着して使用するといった簡易な使用形態をとることができないものとする。装置本体10には、例えば入力装置とした装置上面部にタッチパネル10aが設けられている。タッチパネル10aに対しては、操作ペン12を用いて入力面が接触されることで入力が行われる(図3、図4参照)。   The apparatus main body 10 of the wearable PC 1 in the present embodiment has a certain size and weight, for example, and cannot be used in a simple usage form such as being worn on a wrist. The device main body 10 is provided with a touch panel 10a on the upper surface of the device, which is an input device, for example. Input is performed on the touch panel 10a by touching the input surface using the operation pen 12 (see FIGS. 3 and 4).

装置本体10は、装置上面部(タッチパネル10a)が開放された状態で本体収納部材13に収納されている。本体収納部材13には、図2に示すように、操作ペン12を保持しておくことができる収納部が設けられている。操作ペン12を使用しない場合には、この収納部に保持させておくことで、ウェアラブルPC1の携帯を容易にすることができる。   The apparatus main body 10 is stored in the main body storage member 13 with the apparatus upper surface (touch panel 10a) being opened. As shown in FIG. 2, the main body storage member 13 is provided with a storage unit that can hold the operation pen 12. When the operation pen 12 is not used, the wearable PC 1 can be easily carried by being held in the storage unit.

本体収納部材13には、装置本体10の上面部を覆うための蓋部材14が取り付けられている。蓋部材14は、本体収納部材13の一辺に取り付けられており、装置本体10の上面部(タッチパネル10a)を覆う第1の状態と上面部を開放する第2の状態に開閉可能となっている。蓋部材14は、柔軟性のある材質により形成されており、第1の状態にある場合にはタッチパネル10aの入力面を保護し、また装置本体10の下面側に折り曲げて下面側を覆う第3の状態にすることが可能となっている。   A lid member 14 for covering the upper surface of the apparatus main body 10 is attached to the main body storage member 13. The lid member 14 is attached to one side of the main body storage member 13 and can be opened and closed in a first state covering the upper surface portion (touch panel 10a) of the apparatus main body 10 and a second state opening the upper surface portion. . The lid member 14 is formed of a flexible material. When the lid member 14 is in the first state, the lid member 14 protects the input surface of the touch panel 10a, and is bent to the lower surface side of the apparatus body 10 to cover the lower surface side. It is possible to be in the state.

蓋部材14には、2箇所に設けられた取付金具15を介して、ウェアラブルPC1(装置本体10)を身体に装着するために用いられる1本の装着部材16(ショルダーベルト)が取り付けられている。装着部材16は、例えば首あるいは肩に掛けることにより、ウェアラブルPC1を携帯できるようにしている。なお、腰に装着可能な装着部材17(ウエストベルト)を蓋部材14の外面側(装置本体10の上面部を覆わない側)に設けられた装着部材保持部14aに取り付けて、この装着部材17により身体に装着することも可能である(図3参照)。   One attachment member 16 (shoulder belt) used for attaching the wearable PC 1 (device main body 10) to the body is attached to the lid member 14 via attachment fittings 15 provided at two locations. . The mounting member 16 can be worn around the neck or shoulder, for example, so that the wearable PC 1 can be carried. A mounting member 17 (waist belt) that can be mounted on the waist is attached to a mounting member holding portion 14a provided on the outer surface side of the lid member 14 (the side that does not cover the upper surface portion of the apparatus main body 10). Can also be worn on the body (see FIG. 3).

蓋部材14には、本体収納部材13に取り付けられた側と反対側の端部に、蓋部材14の状態を固定するための固定部材18が設けられている。固定部材18には、本体収納部材13の外面部に設けられた接着部13a、あるいは蓋部材14の内面部(装置本体10の上面部を覆う側)に設けられた接着部14bと着脱自在な接着部18aが設けられている。例えば、固定部材18の接着部18aと、本体収納部材13あるいは蓋部材14に設けられた接着部は、一方がフック状、他方がパイル状の布製のテープにより構成されている。なお、着脱自在であり、接着時には蓋部材14の状態を固定が可能であれば、その他の接着方法を用いることも可能である。   The lid member 14 is provided with a fixing member 18 for fixing the state of the lid member 14 at the end opposite to the side attached to the main body storage member 13. The fixing member 18 is detachable from an adhesive portion 13a provided on the outer surface portion of the main body storage member 13 or an adhesive portion 14b provided on the inner surface portion of the lid member 14 (the side covering the upper surface portion of the apparatus main body 10). An adhesive portion 18a is provided. For example, the adhesive portion 18a of the fixing member 18 and the adhesive portion provided on the main body storage member 13 or the lid member 14 are configured by a cloth tape having one hook shape and the other pile shape. It should be noted that other bonding methods can be used as long as they are detachable and can fix the state of the lid member 14 during bonding.

図1に示すように、固定部材18の接着部18aと、本体収納部材13の外面部に設けられた接着部13aとを接着させることで、蓋部材14が装置本体10の上面部を保持した第1の状態とすることができる。図1に示す状態では、装着部材16が蓋部材14の端部(図1中の上端)に取り付けられているために、本体収納部材13と蓋部材14とが取り付けられた部分(図1中の蓋部材14の下端)に装置本体10の重量がかかった状態で、装置本体10の上面部(タッチパネル10a)と蓋部材14の内面側とが密着させた状態で固定することができる。   As shown in FIG. 1, the lid member 14 holds the upper surface portion of the apparatus main body 10 by bonding the bonding portion 18 a of the fixing member 18 and the bonding portion 13 a provided on the outer surface portion of the main body storage member 13. It can be in the first state. In the state shown in FIG. 1, since the mounting member 16 is attached to the end of the lid member 14 (the upper end in FIG. 1), the portion where the main body storage member 13 and the lid member 14 are attached (in FIG. 1) With the weight of the apparatus main body 10 applied to the lower end of the lid member 14, the upper surface portion (touch panel 10 a) of the apparatus main body 10 and the inner surface side of the lid member 14 can be fixed.

また、図1に示す状態において、固定部材18の接着部18aと、本体収納部材13の外面部に設けられた接着部13aとを離すことで、装置本体10の重量が蓋部材14の下端にかかっているため、装置本体10の自重により装置本体10が蓋部材14から離間し、蓋部材14が装置本体10の上面部を開放する第2の状態となる。   In the state shown in FIG. 1, the weight of the apparatus main body 10 is reduced to the lower end of the lid member 14 by separating the adhesive portion 18 a of the fixing member 18 and the adhesive portion 13 a provided on the outer surface portion of the main body storage member 13. Therefore, the apparatus main body 10 is separated from the lid member 14 by the weight of the apparatus main body 10, and the lid member 14 is in a second state in which the upper surface portion of the apparatus main body 10 is opened.

蓋部材14の両側部には取付金具19が設けられている。また、本体収納部材13の両側部にも取付金具20が設けられている。蓋部材14に設けられた取付金具19と、対応する本体収納部材13に設けられた取付金具20との間には、規定部材21が両側部に取り付けられている。規定部材21は、蓋部材14と本体収納部材13(装置本体10)とが離間して蓋部材14が第2の状態にある時に、図2に示すように、蓋部材14と装置本体10を収納した本体収納部材13との間隔、すなわちウェアラブルPC1の装着時に身体(腹の部分)と密着してほぼ垂直となる蓋部材14に対する、装置本体10の上面部との角度を規定する。規定部材21は、装着部材16によりウェアラブルPC1が身体に装着されている状態で、装置本体10の上面部(タッチパネル10a)に対して操作ペン12を用いた入力操作が容易となるように、例えばタッチパネル10aの入力面がほぼ水平となるような長さとなっている。   Mounting brackets 19 are provided on both sides of the lid member 14. In addition, mounting brackets 20 are provided on both side portions of the main body storage member 13. Between the mounting bracket 19 provided on the lid member 14 and the mounting bracket 20 provided on the corresponding main body storage member 13, a defining member 21 is mounted on both sides. When the lid member 14 and the main body storage member 13 (the apparatus main body 10) are separated from each other and the lid member 14 is in the second state, the defining member 21 is configured such that the lid member 14 and the apparatus main body 10 are The interval between the main body storage member 13 stored, that is, the angle of the upper surface portion of the apparatus main body 10 with respect to the lid member 14 that is in close contact with the body (abdomen) and is almost vertical when the wearable PC 1 is worn is defined. For example, the defining member 21 is configured so that an input operation using the operation pen 12 can be easily performed on the upper surface portion (touch panel 10a) of the apparatus main body 10 in a state where the wearable PC 1 is mounted on the body by the mounting member 16. The length is such that the input surface of the touch panel 10a is substantially horizontal.

従って、図1に示す未使用時の状態において固定部材18を接着部13aから離すことにより、簡単に装置本体10に対する入力操作が可能な図2に示す状態に変更することができる。   Therefore, when the fixing member 18 is separated from the bonding portion 13a in the unused state shown in FIG. 1, the state can be changed to the state shown in FIG.

なお、規定部材21の長さを任意に調節できるようにして、蓋部材14と装置本体10とが離間する間隔を自由に変更できるようにしても良い。   It should be noted that the length of the defining member 21 may be arbitrarily adjusted so that the interval between the lid member 14 and the apparatus main body 10 can be freely changed.

また、規定部材21は、取付金具19及び取付金具20から脱着可能であり、ウェアラブルPC1を使用しない場合に取り外しておくことも可能である。   Further, the defining member 21 can be detached from the mounting bracket 19 and the mounting bracket 20 and can be removed when the wearable PC 1 is not used.

図3及び図4は、ウェアラブルPC1が携帯されたままで使用されている状態の一例を示す図である。   3 and 4 are diagrams illustrating an example of a state in which the wearable PC 1 is used while being carried.

図3に示すように、蓋部材14に取り付けられた装着部材16を首にかけることで、ウェアラブルPC1を容易に携帯することができる。図3に示す例では、蓋部材14の外面側に設けられた装着部材保持部14aに装着部材17を取り付け、この装着部材17によっても腰の部分で身体に装着している。装着部材17をさらに用いることで、より安定した状態でウェアラブルPC1を携帯することができ、また装置本体10に対する入力操作も安定して行うことができるようになる(誤入力などが発生しにくい)。また、ウェアラブルPC1を使用する状態にしていたとしても、装着部材16と装着部材17により身体に装着されているので、両手を使って他の作業を行うことも可能となる。   As shown in FIG. 3, the wearable PC 1 can be easily carried by putting the mounting member 16 attached to the lid member 14 around the neck. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the mounting member 17 is attached to the mounting member holding portion 14 a provided on the outer surface side of the lid member 14, and this mounting member 17 is also mounted on the body at the waist. By further using the mounting member 17, the wearable PC 1 can be carried in a more stable state, and the input operation to the apparatus main body 10 can be performed stably (an erroneous input is unlikely to occur). . Even if the wearable PC 1 is in a state of being used, since it is mounted on the body by the mounting member 16 and the mounting member 17, other work can be performed using both hands.

図4は、操作ペン12を用いて装置本体10のタッチパネル10aに対して入力操作をしている様子を示している。図4に示すように、装置本体10(本体収納部材13)は、規定部材21によって蓋部材14との間隔が規定され、ほぼ水平の状態で保持されているので容易に入力操作をすることができる。   FIG. 4 shows a state in which an input operation is performed on the touch panel 10 a of the apparatus body 10 using the operation pen 12. As shown in FIG. 4, the apparatus main body 10 (main body storage member 13) has an interval between the lid member 14 defined by the defining member 21 and is held in a substantially horizontal state, so that an input operation can be easily performed. it can.

なお、ウェアラブルPC1の身体への装着は、首に掛ける装着部材16のみ、あるいは腰に巻き付ける装着部材17のいずれか一方のみとすることも可能である。装着部材17のみとする場合には、装着部材17のみで装置本体10を安定して装着できるように蓋部材14の適切な位置に装着部材保持部14aを設け、蓋部材14に装置本体10を支持することができる程度の強度を持たせるものとする。   Note that the wearable PC 1 can be attached to the body only by either the attachment member 16 that hangs around the neck or the attachment member 17 that wraps around the waist. When only the mounting member 17 is used, the mounting member holding portion 14a is provided at an appropriate position of the lid member 14 so that the apparatus main body 10 can be stably mounted only by the mounting member 17, and the apparatus main body 10 is mounted on the lid member 14. It shall be strong enough to be supported.

図5は、ウェアラブルPC1が載置された状態で使用される場合を示す図である。
図5に示すように、ウェアラブルPC1が身体に装着された状態ではなく、机上などに載置された状態で使用される場合には、蓋部材14を装置本体10の下面側に折り曲げて固定した第3の状態にする。蓋部材14を装置本体10の下面側にすることで、ウェアラブルPC1を載置した状態で入力操作を行う場合に、蓋部材14が邪魔になることがない。また、蓋部材14が柔軟性のある材質により携帯されているので、例えばウェアラブルPC1を振動のある場所、例えば各種車両内で使用する場合にクッションの役割を果たし、装置本体10を保護することができる。
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a case where the wearable PC 1 is used in a mounted state.
As shown in FIG. 5, when the wearable PC 1 is used in a state of being placed on a desk or the like instead of being worn on the body, the lid member 14 is bent and fixed to the lower surface side of the apparatus main body 10. Set to the third state. By making the lid member 14 on the lower surface side of the apparatus main body 10, the lid member 14 does not get in the way when an input operation is performed in a state where the wearable PC 1 is placed. Further, since the lid member 14 is carried by a flexible material, for example, when the wearable PC 1 is used in a place with vibration, for example, in various vehicles, it serves as a cushion and can protect the apparatus main body 10. it can.

なお、図5では、規定部材21を取付金具19及び取付金具20から取り外して、入力操作の邪魔とならないようにしている(図7乃至図10では、取付金具19の図示を省略している)。   In FIG. 5, the defining member 21 is removed from the mounting bracket 19 and the mounting bracket 20 so as not to interfere with the input operation (the mounting bracket 19 is not shown in FIGS. 7 to 10). .

図6は、ウェアラブルPC1の未使用時の状態を示している。
図6では、固定部材18が第1の状態で固定されている。また、図6に示すように、規定部材21を取り外すことによって、 未使用時のウェアラブルPC1の取り扱いを容易にすることができる。また、装着部材16についても取り外すことにより、ウェアラブルPC1を収納する場合に邪魔にならなくてすむ。
FIG. 6 shows a state when the wearable PC 1 is not used.
In FIG. 6, the fixing member 18 is fixed in the first state. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 6, by removing the defining member 21, it is possible to facilitate the handling of the wearable PC 1 when not in use. Further, by removing the mounting member 16 as well, there is no need to get in the way when the wearable PC 1 is stored.
