Normally, the barrier member 51 is positioned at the right end, that is, in the closed state, and the lens is covered with the barrier member 51. Thereby, damage of a lens etc. is prevented. When the barrier member 51 is slid leftward, as shown in FIG. 19, when the barrier member 51 is positioned at the left end, that is, in the open state, the lens disposed on the front surface of the housing 50 is exposed. The When it is recognized by a sensor (not shown) that the barrier member 51 is in an open state, the power is turned on by a control means (not shown) to enable photographing.

[About the casing 50]
The casing 50 is formed of an aluminum alloy, and is a cylindrical member having a substantially square cross-section that is formed by extrusion molding of the camera 5 in the left-right direction and has a through-hole formed therein. A through groove 50a penetrating the wall is integrally formed on the outer edge of the housing 40 by extrusion molding.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the housing 50 will be described. First, by using an extruder (not shown), an aluminum alloy is extruded from a die (not shown), thereby forming a hollow cylindrical bar having a cross-sectional shape shown in FIGS. A substantially square-shaped cylindrical member provided with a through groove 50a is obtained by cutting the substantially square-shaped cylindrical rod material obtained in this way into a predetermined length with a circular saw or the like. Form. Next, a lens hole (not shown) and a screw hole (not shown) are formed by machining. Since this part is the same as that of the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

[Regarding Barrier Member 51]
The barrier member 51 is made of an aluminum alloy and is a plate-like member formed by extrusion molding. A substantially T-shaped rib 51a is formed at a substantially central portion on the back surface. Ribs 51b and 51c are formed on the back side of the upper end and the lower end of the barrier member 51, and ribs 51d and 51e are formed on the front side of the substantially T-shaped rib 51a. The tips of the ribs 51b, 51c, 51d, 51e are each formed in an arc shape. The substantially T-shaped rib 61a is composed of a shaft portion 51a-1 as a root portion and a plate-like portion 61a-2 as a tip portion, and the width of the plate-like portion 51a-2 is as wide as possible, that is, a barrier member. It is preferable that the shape of 51 is substantially H-shaped. Thereby, the space | interval of the rib 51d and the rib 51e becomes wide.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the barrier member 51 will be described. First, by using an extruder (not shown), an aluminum alloy is extruded from a die (not shown), thereby forming a hollow cylindrical bar having a cross-sectional shape shown in FIGS. A plate-like barrier member 51 provided with substantially T-shaped ribs 51a and ribs 51b, 51c, 51d, 51e is obtained by cutting the plate material thus obtained into a predetermined length with a circular saw or the like. It is formed.

[Attaching the barrier member 51 to the housing 50]
The substantially T-shaped rib 51a is inserted into the through groove 50a. In addition, the width of the through groove 50a is formed larger than the width of the shaft portion 51a-1 of the substantially T-shaped rib 51a so that the substantially T-shaped rib 51a can be inserted. When the shaft portion 51a-1 of the substantially T-shaped rib 51a is inserted into the through groove 50a, the ribs 51b, 51c, 51d, 51e and the housing 50 come into contact with each other. That is, the barrier member 51 is slidably attached to the housing 50 so that the rib 51b and the rib 51d and the rib 51c and the rib 51e sandwich the front wall of the housing 50.

  The position at which the barrier member 51 slides on the front surface of the housing 50, that is, the sliding portion between the barrier member 51 and the housing 50 is the position of the ribs 51b, 51c, 51d, 51e, that is, the barrier member 51 and substantially T. It is provided at the upper end and lower end of the plate-like portion 51a-2 of the letter-shaped rib 51a (see the shaded portion in FIG. 21). By widening the width of the sliding portion in this manner, the rattling of the barrier member 51 can be suppressed, so that smoother sliding is possible.

  Further, the tips of the ribs 51b, 51c, 51d, 51e are each formed in an arc shape, so that the barrier member 51 and the housing 50 slide on a line. Thereby, resistance at the time of sliding decreases and smooth sliding becomes possible.

  According to the present embodiment, the sliding portion (in the present embodiment, the ribs 51b, 51c, 51d, 51e) is widened, thereby enabling stable sliding. In addition, the design can be improved due to the fact that only one groove is visible from the front and that a part of the groove is covered with the barrier member and cannot be seen. In addition, the space required for sliding can be reduced, and the electronic device can be downsized.

After attaching the barrier member 61 to the housing 60 in which various parts (not shown) are assembled, the camera 6 is assembled by fixing the side plates 12 and 13 to the housing with screws or the like.

  The barrier member 61 is slidably mounted on the front surface of the housing 60, and is switched between an open state and a closed state when the barrier member 61 slides left and right. Normally, the barrier member 61 is positioned at the right end, that is, in the closed state, and the lens is covered with the barrier member 61. Thereby, damage of a lens etc. is prevented. When the barrier member 61 is slid leftward, as shown in FIG. 22, when the barrier member 61 is positioned at the left end, that is, in the open state, the lens disposed on the front surface of the housing 60 is exposed. The When the sensor (not shown) recognizes that the barrier member 61 is in the open state, the power is turned on by the control means (not shown), and photographing is possible.

[About the housing 60]
The casing 60 is formed of an aluminum alloy, and is a cylindrical member having a substantially square cross-section that is formed by extrusion molding of the camera 6 in the left-right direction and has a through-hole formed therein. A substantially T-shaped groove 60 a integrally formed by extrusion molding is formed on the outer edge of the housing 60. The substantially T-shaped groove 60a includes a through groove 60a-1 and a substantially square-shaped groove 60a-2.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the housing 60 will be described. First, by using an extruder (not shown), an aluminum alloy is extruded from a die (not shown) to form a hollow cylindrical bar having a cross-sectional shape shown in FIGS. The substantially rod-shaped cylindrical bar thus obtained is cut into a predetermined length with a circular saw or the like, so that a substantially square-shaped groove 60a provided with a substantially T-shaped groove 60a is obtained. A cylindrical member is formed. Next, a lens hole (not shown) and a screw hole (not shown) are formed by machining. Since this part is the same as that of the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

[Barrier member 61]
The barrier member 61 is formed of an aluminum alloy and is a plate-like member formed by extrusion molding. A substantially T-shaped rib 61a is formed at a substantially central portion on the back surface. The substantially T-shaped rib 61a is composed of a shaft portion 61a-1 that is a base portion and a plate-like portion 61a-2 that is a tip portion, and the widths of the upper and lower ends of the plate-like portion 61a-2 are as follows. That is, the upper end and the lower end of the plate-like portion 61a-2 are convex.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the barrier member 61 will be described. First, by using an extruder (not shown), an aluminum alloy is extruded from a die (not shown) to form a hollow cylindrical bar having a cross-sectional shape shown in FIGS. The plate material thus obtained is cut into a predetermined length with a circular saw or the like, thereby forming a plate-like barrier member 51 provided with a substantially T-shaped rib 61a.

[Attaching Barrier Member 61 to Case 60]
The shaft portion 61a-1 is inserted into the through groove 60a, and the plate-like portion 61a-2 is inserted into the substantially square-shaped groove 60a-2. The width of the through groove 50a is formed larger than the width of the shaft portion 51a-1 of the substantially T-shaped rib 51a so that the substantially T-shaped rib 51a can be inserted. Further, the width A of the upper end and the lower end of the plate-like portion 61a-2 is smaller than the width B of the substantially square-shaped groove 60a-2, that is, a dimensional relationship that enables smooth sliding (for example, B = A + 0 .05 mm to 0.5 mm).

  When the substantially T-shaped rib 61a is inserted into the substantially T-shaped groove 60a, the upper and lower ends of the plate-like portion 61a-2 and the substantially square-shaped groove 60a-2 come into contact with each other. Therefore, the position when the barrier member 61 slides on the front surface of the housing 60, that is, the sliding portion between the barrier member 61 and the housing 60 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the plate-like portion 61a-2. Thereby, the quality of sliding can be determined only by the relationship between the dimension of the width A of the upper end and the lower end of the plate-like part 61a-2 and the dimension of the width B of the substantially square-shaped groove 60a-2. Therefore, stable sliding becomes possible by making the dimensions appropriate. Therefore, there is no need to consider the accumulation of dimensional tolerances. Further, by providing the sliding part only in the groove, it is possible to prevent the scraped trace from being seen from the front.

  According to the present embodiment, there is only one groove that can be seen from the front, and the sliding trace (see the hatched portion in FIG. 25) due to the sliding of the barrier member is not visible from the front. be able to.

Note that description of the same parts as those of the first embodiment is omitted.

  FIG. 27 is a perspective view of the housing 70. FIG. 28 is a perspective view of the barrier member 71. The camera 7 mainly includes a housing 70, a barrier member 71, and side plates 12 and 13. After attaching the barrier member 71 to the housing 70 in which various parts (not shown) are assembled, the camera 6 is assembled by fixing the side plates 12 and 13 to the housing with screws or the like.

  The barrier member 71 is slidably mounted on the front surface of the housing 70, and the open state and the closed state are switched when the barrier member 71 slides left and right. Usually, as shown in FIG. 26A, the barrier member 71 is positioned at the right end, that is, in the closed state, and the lens is covered with the barrier member 71. Thereby, damage of a lens etc. is prevented. When the barrier member 71 is slid leftward, as shown in FIG. 26B, when the barrier member 71 is positioned at the left end, that is, in the open state, the lens disposed on the front surface of the housing 70. Is exposed. When the sensor (not shown) recognizes that the barrier member 71 is in the open state, the power is turned on by the control means (not shown), and photographing is possible.

[Case 70]
The casing 70 is formed of an aluminum alloy, and is a cylindrical member having a substantially square cross section that is formed by extrusion molding of the camera 7 in the left-right direction and has a through-hole formed therein. A rib 70a integrally formed by extrusion molding is formed on the outer edge of the housing 70, and crank-shaped grooves 70b and 70c are formed in the rib 70a.

  The ribs 70 a and the grooves 70 b and 70 c are cut leaving a width D at the approximate center of the housing 70. The width D of the rib 70a and the grooves 70b and 70c is always covered by the barrier member 71 when the barrier member 71 slides in the left-right direction, that is, the overlap region C of the barrier member 71, as shown in FIG. Smaller than the area. Thereby, it can prevent that the rib 70a and the grooves 70b and 70c are visible from the front.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the housing 70 will be described. First, by using an extruder (not shown), an aluminum alloy is extruded from a die (not shown), thereby forming a hollow cylindrical bar having a cross-sectional shape shown in FIG. By cutting the substantially rod-shaped cylindrical bar thus obtained into a predetermined length with a circular saw or the like, a substantially square-shaped rod provided with ribs 70a and grooves 70b and 70c is obtained. A cylindrical member is formed.

  Next, the rib 70a and the grooves 70b and 70c are cut by machining. The casing 70 formed by extrusion molding is placed on a milling machine or the like with the front side facing up, and is cut from the front side to show the shaded area in FIGS. 26 (c) and 27 (b), that is, the casing. The rib 70a and the grooves 70b and 70c are cut while leaving a region having a width D substantially at the center of 70.

  Finally, a lens hole (not shown) and a screw hole (not shown) are formed by machining. Since this part is the same as that of the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

[Barrier member 71]
The barrier member 71 is formed of an aluminum alloy, and is a plate-like member formed by extrusion molding. Crank-shaped ribs 71a and 71b are formed in a substantially central portion on the back surface. It is desirable that the barrier member 71 is as large as possible so that the overlap region C becomes large. By increasing the overlap region C, a large number of ribs 70a and grooves 70b and 70c can be left, and stable sliding becomes possible. In addition, a wide area for hiding various components such as a coil spring as shown in the third modification of the first embodiment can be provided.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the barrier member 71 will be described. First, a hollow cylindrical bar having a cross-sectional shape shown in FIG. 28 is formed by extruding an aluminum alloy from a die (not shown) using an extruder (not shown). A plate-like barrier member 71 provided with crank-shaped ribs 71a and 71b is formed by cutting the plate material thus obtained into a predetermined length with a circular saw or the like.

[Attaching Barrier Member 71 to Case 70]
The crank-shaped rib 71a is inserted into the groove 70a, and the crank-shaped rib 71b is inserted into the groove 70b. The grooves 70a and 70b and the ribs 71a and 71b are formed in a dimensional relationship that enables smooth sliding. As a result, the rib 71a and the rib 71b can slide inside the groove 70a and the groove 70b, respectively.

  According to the present embodiment, since the sliding portions (in this embodiment, the ribs 70a and the grooves 70b and 70c) are not visible at all from the front, the design can be improved.

  The present invention has been described by taking a camera having a bending optical system as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to a bending type, and a sinking type optical system can also be used. In this case, when the sensor recognizes that the barrier member 11 is moved from the open state to the closed state, the internal control means first stores the optical system, and the barrier member is removed until the storage is completed. What is necessary is just to make it impossible to slide and to make a barrier member slidable, after accommodation is completed.

  Further, the present invention can be applied not only to a camera but also to various electronic components such as a mobile phone, a PDA, and a music player. In the present invention, extrusion molding is performed using an aluminum alloy. However, the present invention is not limited to aluminum, and various materials that can be extruded can be used. For example, a metal material such as a magnesium alloy may be used, or a plastic material may be used.

  In the present invention, the case has been described by way of example in which the shape of the housing is substantially square-shaped or substantially U-shaped, but the shape of the housing is not limited to this, and various shapes can be used.
