Description

  The present invention relates to a display mounting apparatus and a display mounting structure used for mounting a thin display such as a plasma display or a liquid crystal display on a wall surface.

  Conventionally, a display device such as a television is often placed on a dedicated stand or stored in a cabinet. However, in recent years, large and thin displays such as plasma displays and liquid crystal displays have become widespread, and the installation method is not only to install the display on the floor using a dedicated stand as in the past, but also to the relatively light weight of these displays Taking advantage of its thinness, it can also be attached to walls such as living rooms and dining rooms, and various attachment devices have been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

The mounting device described in Patent Document 1 is for supporting a pair of plate-like bases having locking portions at upper and lower ends, a pipe inserted into the locking portion of the plate-like base, and the pipe. The display panel (display) includes a shaft support provided at the lower back of the display panel, a hook provided at the upper back of the display panel, and a hook and a locking portion of the plate-like base. And the hook on the back of the panel is stretched by a string-like member from the locking portion of the plate-like base to attach the display panel.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-174021

  However, in the mounting device as described above, the display directivity direction can be freely adjusted by adjusting the stretch length of the string-like member, but the display directivity direction can be freely adjusted with the shaft support portion as a fulcrum. Adjustment in the horizontal direction was not considered at all. In other words, recently, in the living space, a large room called LDK, which also serves as a living room / dining room / kitchen in one room, has been introduced. There may be a demand for a display that can be oriented, that is, a display that can be rotated in the horizontal direction. However, the mounting device as described above cannot satisfy such a demand, and the orientation direction of the display is adjusted in the horizontal direction. I couldn't.

  The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems and provides a display mounting device and a display mounting structure that can change the orientation of the display appropriately with respect to the horizontal direction in a display mounted on a wall. is there.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is configured as follows.
That is, the mounting device according to the present invention is a mounting device for mounting a display on a wall surface, and includes a mounting member to which the display is mounted, an engaging member locked to the wall surface, and the mounting member as a horizontal direction with respect to the engaging member. And a rotation connecting portion that is rotatably attached to the head.

The display mounting structure according to the present invention is characterized in that the display is mounted on the wall surface by the mounting device, and the directivity direction of the display can be appropriately changed with respect to the horizontal direction.

  According to the present invention, in the display mounted on the wall surface by the display mounting apparatus according to the present invention, when the display is installed in a large room such as an LDK where the living room, the dining room, and the kitchen are one room, or depending on the structure of the room, When the mounting position is restricted, the orientation of the display can be changed as appropriate according to the place where the occupant is present, so that the display can be used efficiently and the living space can be used effectively. Further, depending on the positional relationship between the display mounting position and the window arrangement, it is expected that the reflection due to light inserted from the window is reduced by changing the directivity angle of the display.

  In the display mounting device according to the present invention, when the engaging piece of the engaging member is inserted and locked in the locking groove formed in the horizontal direction of the wall surface, and the mounting device is mounted on the wall surface, the locking Since the locking position of the engaging member can be adjusted appropriately along the groove, the display mounting position can be easily adjusted.

  In the display mounting apparatus according to the present invention, the pressing surface of the pressing member is pressed against the outer surface of the mounting member by an elastic force, and the outer surface of the mounting member and the pressing surface are formed in a semicircular shape in cross section. When the mounting member rotates with respect to the engaging member, the mounting device is configured so as to be rotated while releasing the meshing against the elastic force. When changing the directivity direction of the display attached to the wall by using the force against the elastic force, it is only necessary to rotate the mounting member while releasing the meshing of the irregularities, and after changing the directivity direction, the force is applied. When unraveled, it is fixed at the position where the ridges are engaged in the vicinity of the directivity direction.

Furthermore, in the display mounting apparatus according to the present invention, when the rotation connecting portion is located at the side end portion of the mounting member, the mounting member can be rotated only in one direction on the basis of the state of being positioned in parallel with the engaging member. In addition, if the rotation connecting portion is located at a place other than the end portion of the attachment member, preferably at the center portion, the attachment member can be turned in both the left and right directions based on the state of being located in parallel with the engagement member. Therefore, the form of the attachment device can be appropriately selected according to the display attachment position and the required range of the directivity direction of the display.

Each of them may be inserted into the concave groove 11 of the wall surface 1.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the attachment member 3 has a quadrangular shape formed by combining cross-shaped crosspieces, and includes three vertical crosspieces 31 arranged in parallel in the vertical direction, and a vertical crosspiece. It consists of two horizontal bars 32 joined to the top and bottom of 31 respectively. A protrusion 33 connected to the rotation connecting portion 4 of the engaging member 3 is attached to the central vertical beam 31a, and the attaching member 3 can be rotated in the horizontal direction with respect to the engaging member 2, and two pieces are provided. The horizontal rail 32 is supported by the metal fitting 34 attached to the display a to support the display a, and the left and right vertical rails 31b are difficult to bend when the display a is attached. It is provided for holding. The protrusion 33 is attached to the vertical beam 31a via a base member 33a formed at the base of the protrusion 33.

  The metal fitting 34 is a long body provided with a hooking piece 35 hooked to the upper and lower horizontal bars 32 of the mounting member 3 and a screw hole 36 for screwing the display a. The latching pieces 35 protrude from the upper end and the lower side portions of the metal fitting 34, and are respectively latched on the upper and lower horizontal bars 32 of the mounting member 3.

  As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 5, the rotation connecting portion 4 includes a base portion 41 attached to the central vertical rail 23 of the engaging member 2, and an upper and lower portion projecting horizontally from the base portion 41. A pair of support portions 42 are provided. A projection 33 formed on the vertical beam 31a of the mounting member 3 is inserted between the two support portions 42, and a shaft hole 43 is formed coaxially with the support portion 42 and the projection 33 in the vertical direction. Further, since the shaft rod 44 is mounted so as to penetrate the shaft hole 43, the mounting member 3 can be rotated in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. Further, since the tip of the support portion 42 is formed concentrically with the shaft hole 43 as the center, when the attachment member 3 is rotated, the support portion 42 and the vertical beam 31a of the attachment member 3 come into contact with each other. It is made so as not to disturb the movement.

  In addition, if the rotation connection part 4 is attached only to the central vertical beam 23, the central vertical beam 23 is concentrated, and depending on the weight of the display a to be attached, a problem such as deformation of the attachment member 2 may occur. Therefore, the rotation connecting portion 4 may be attached over the horizontal beam 24 connected to the upper and lower sides of the central vertical beam 23, and the weight may be distributed to the central vertical beam 23 and the horizontal beam 24. Further, in order to connect the engaging member 2 and the mounting member 3 more firmly, a plurality of rotational connecting portions 4 are arranged in the vertical direction, and a corresponding projection 33 is formed on the vertical beam 31a of the engaging member 3.

The pressing member 45 is formed in a semicircular shape having a concave cross section corresponding to the shape of the protrusion 33 and the ridges 48 that mesh with each other are formed with the length direction as the vertical direction. The formed structure is formed.

  As a result, when the attachment member 3 rotates relative to the engagement member 2, the attachment member 3 is rotated against the elastic force, and the rotation is made immovable again at a position where the ridges 48 of the pressing surface 47 are newly engaged. Further, since the groove portion 49 in which the pressing member 45 is received is provided in the base portion 41 of the rotational connection portion 4, the pressing member 45 is prevented from moving unnecessarily to the side.

  The spring spring 46 is inserted into an insertion hole formed in the pressing member 45, and the pressing member 45 is urged by the spring 46 to press the protrusion 33. However, the form of the spring 46 is limited to this. Instead, it may be a polymer material having rubber elasticity, or a leaf spring formed by bending a metal plate. Further, the mounting surface of the spring 46 may be the base 41 of the rotation connecting portion 4 other than the pressing member 45 shown in the present embodiment.

  As described above, when the display a is attached to the wall surface 1 by the display attachment device P according to the present invention shown in FIG. 1, the orientation direction of the display a can be changed to the horizontal direction. The protrusions 33 and the pressing member 45 are fixed at positions where the projections and recesses 48 of the pressing surface 47 mesh with each other.

Next, another embodiment of the display mounting apparatus according to the present invention shown in FIGS.
In the mounting device P shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the mounting device P is connected to the rotation connecting portion 4 at the center of the mounting member 3, and the mounting member 3 is positioned in parallel with the engaging member 2.

It consists of a horizontal crosspiece 32. Since the other end of the two hinges 64a is attached to the vertical beam 31c located at the side end portion of the attachment member 3, and one end of the hinge is connected to the engagement member, the hinge member 64a is connected to the engagement member 2 around the hinge 64a. It becomes possible to rotate. The display a can be attached by hooking the metal fitting 34 attached to the display a to the horizontal rail 32 of the attachment member 3 in the same manner as the attachment device P shown in FIG.

  When the mounting member 3 is rotated in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 7, an angle holding structure is formed in order to hold the rotation angle. That is, a support bar 65 that can be rotated in the horizontal direction by a hinge 64b is attached to the wide vertical beam 61 of the engagement member 2, and the attachment member 3 is joined to the inner vertical beam 31d across the two vertical beams 31d. A sliding member 67 slidable in the horizontal direction is provided in the guide groove 66 opened on the side of the combined member 2, and the sliding member 67 is connected to the end of the support bar 65 via a hinge 64 c.

When the spherical body 68 of the sliding member 67 comes to the position of the round hole 69, the spherical body 68 is inserted into the round hole 69, and the mounting member 3 is made non-slidable at that position. When a force is further applied to the mounting member 3, the spherical body 68 is detached from the round hole 69 and slides in the guide groove 66 again, so that the mounting member 3 can be rotated. Thereby, the attachment member 3 becomes rotatable with respect to the engagement member 2, and becomes a mechanism fixed at a predetermined position.

  Thus, in the display mounting apparatus P according to the present invention shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, when the display a is mounted on the wall surface 1 by the mounting apparatus P, the orientation direction of the display a can be changed. After the change, the spherical body 67 of the sliding member 65 is fixed at a position where the spherical member 67 of the guide groove 66 is embedded in the vicinity of the directivity direction.

  The material used in the engaging member 2, the mounting member 3, and the rotation connecting portion 4 is preferably a steel material in consideration of strength and the like, but a material other than the steel material, for example, a metal material such as aluminum or stainless steel may be used for each member.
