Description

  The present invention relates to a cabinet structure in which a device is attached to a flat panel and the front surface of the panel is covered with a cover having a side surface.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cabinet 35 in which a device 32 is attached to a flat panel 31 and the front surface of the panel 31 is covered with a cover 34 having a side surface 33 is formed by inserting a long screw 36 called a spacer from the back surface of the panel 31. After the cover 34 was set on the panel 31, the cover 34 was fastened and fixed with screws 37.

  However, in the cabinet structure in the above prior art, since the spacer is erected on the front surface of the panel, the maintenance efficiency of the equipment housed in the cabinet is obstructed and the work efficiency is lowered. Since the spacer is attached from the back surface of the panel, it cannot be removed while the panel is fixed to the wall surface.

  The cover was formed in a box shape, and at that time, the end of the joint portion of the corner was not exposed by welding finish. For this reason, the work is troublesome and the manufacturing cost is increased.

  Since the cover is also fixed by screwing, a tool such as a screwdriver is required to attach and detach the cover.

  Therefore, the present invention has an object to provide a cabinet structure in which protrusions that obstruct work can be removed, and the structure is detachable with columns for supporting the cover at the four corners of the panel. The cover is formed with a notch at the corner so as to face the support column, and a groove into which the end of the cover can be slid and inserted is provided at the end of the notch.

  In the cabinet structure according to the present invention, pillars for supporting the cover are detachably attached to the four corners of the panel, the cover is formed with a notch at the corner so as to face the pillar, and the end of the notch Since the cover is provided with a groove that allows the end of the cover to be slid and inserted, the pillars are erected at the four corners of the panel. . Further, the support column becomes a corner portion of the cover, and there is no need for welding finish as in the conventional case, and the cabinet can be provided at low cost. In addition, tools such as a screwdriver are not necessary for attaching and detaching the cover, and workability is improved.

  The cabinet structure according to the present invention realizes the object of attaching the equipment to the panel of the cabinet and configuring the equipment so as to facilitate the work related to the maintenance of the equipment after the installation with the minimum number of parts and at a low cost.

  An embodiment of a cabinet structure according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings of FIGS.

  The structure of the cabinet 1 according to the present invention includes a flat panel 2 on which electric devices, communication devices, and the like are arranged, and a cover 4 having a side surface 3 that covers the panel 2. An opening for incoming and outgoing lines may be provided on the side surface 3 of the cover 4.

  At the four corners of the panel 2, wall surface mounting holes 5 for mounting the panel 2 to the wall surface and mounting holes 7 for the support columns 6 are provided. The support column 6 forms a mounting portion 8 facing the corner portion of the panel 2, and a support column portion 9 is formed at the end of the mounting portion 8. A groove 10 is provided at a side end of the support column 9. The groove 10 is provided gradually deeper from the cover 4 side toward the wall surface side. The mounting portion 8 of the column 6 is configured to be thick, a screw receiving portion 11 is provided at a position facing the wall surface mounting hole 5 of the panel 2, and a mounting hole 12 is provided at a position facing the mounting hole 7 provided in the panel 2. ing.

  The support column 6 has the mounting hole 12 opposed to the mounting hole 7 provided in the panel 2, and a mounting screw (not shown) is inserted and tightened into the mounting hole 12 and the mounting hole 7 to fix the column 6 to the panel 2. In order to attach the panel 2 to the wall surface with the column 6 attached, a fixing screw (not shown) is inserted through the screw receiving portion 11 of the column 6 and the wall surface mounting hole 5 of the panel 2, and the column 6 is a fixing screw. Is attached to the panel 2 so as to sandwich the attachment portion 8. The mounting portion 8 reinforces that the panel 2 is deformed by the force applied when the fixing screw is tightened. The column 6 can be removed from the panel 2 by removing the mounting screw and loosening the fixing screw even when the panel 2 is attached to the wall surface. In the case of work such as wiring of the equipment housed in the cabinet 1, when it becomes an obstacle such as the strut 6 hitting a hand, a removal work space can be secured.

  The cover 4 has a side surface 3 and is formed in a box shape. A notch 13 is provided at the corner portion so as to face the support column 6, and an arbitrary number of protrusions 15 are provided at arbitrary positions on the edge 14 portion of the notch 13. A recess (not shown) is formed in the groove 10 of the support 6 at a position facing the protrusion 15 so that the cover 4 cannot be easily removed when the cover 4 is fitted to the support 6. When the cover 4 is attached, the support column 6 is inserted while being spread laterally by hand, and the convex portion 15 and the concave portion are fitted. In addition, the groove 10 is sloped so that it does not easily fall off or come off.

  Since the corner portion of the cover 4 is covered with the support column 6, the appearance is good and the work of welding the joint portion of the corner, which has been conventionally performed, becomes unnecessary and the workability is improved.

  The cabinet structure according to the present invention attaches a detachable support column to the panel, fits the edge of the cover into the groove provided in the support column, and locks the projection or recess provided in the edge or groove to the panel. Since the cover is attached, a tool such as a screwdriver is not required to attach or remove the cover.
