  In the above-described conventional mounting structure, an upward hook portion is formed on an upper portion of a sheet metal bracket, and an engaging portion provided on an upper portion of a rear surface of the housing is engaged with the hook portion. In this state, the housing is held by the hook, and the weight of the electronic device is supported by the hook. However, in this state, since the lower part of the housing is not fixed to the bracket, if the lower part of the housing is pulled toward the front, the housing is moved forward with the engagement part between the hook and the engagement part as the center. Rocks.

  In order to prevent this swing, the lower end of the bracket is bent forward, and the bent portion and the lower end of the housing are screwed together to pull the housing downward and adhere to the bent portion. Prevents forward swinging of the body.

  As described above, in the conventional mounting structure, when the lower end portion of the housing is screwed, a force acts in a direction in which the housing is pulled downward, and the downward force is applied to the hook portion and the engagement portion. This causes a problem in that it acts on the joint portion and causes distortion in the housing and the bracket.

  In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a mounting structure for an electronic device that does not cause distortion when a housing of the electronic device is mounted on a bracket.

  In order to solve the above problems, an electronic device mounting structure according to the present invention is an mounting structure for mounting an electronic device covered with a housing to a wall surface, and an upward hook portion is attached to a sheet metal bracket fixed to the wall surface. In the state where the engaging portion formed on the back surface of the housing is engaged with the hook portion, the fixing portion fixed to the bracket to prevent the housing from swinging in the direction away from the wall surface is described above. In the case provided on the housing side, an auxiliary member that slides vertically in a state where the housing is attached to the bracket is provided on the fixed portion, and an outer end of the auxiliary member that is located outside in the sliding direction is The housing is fixed to the bracket by fixing to the bracket.

  According to the above configuration, the housing can be prevented from swinging forward by fixing the auxiliary member to the bracket. Further, when the auxiliary member is fixed to the bracket, the auxiliary member is moved in the sliding direction and fixed to the bracket, so that no further stress acts on the engaging portion between the hook portion and the engaging portion.

  In the related art, the fixing portion is located below the engaging portion. However, the arrangement is not limited to such an arrangement. For example, when the housing is attached to a bracket, the fixing portion is May be formed above the engaging portion.

  If the sliding amount of the auxiliary member is not restricted, if the housing attached to the bracket is lifted upward, there is a possibility that the engaging portion may come off the hook portion. Therefore, a stopper member for limiting the sliding amount of the auxiliary member to a predetermined distance is provided, and when the housing is pushed upward in a state where the auxiliary member is fixed to the bracket, the amount of the pushing is reduced by the above-described amount. It is desirable that the joining portion is regulated by the stopper member so that the joining portion does not come off from the hook portion.

  As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, when the electronic device is mounted on the wall surface, the engaging portion of the housing of the electronic device is engaged with the hook portion of the bracket fixed to the wall surface. By moving the auxiliary member in the sliding direction and fixing to the bracket to prevent the housing from swinging forward, further stress is generated when the auxiliary member is fixed to the bracket by the hook portion and the engaging portion. Does not occur at the engagement portion of Therefore, distortion due to fixing the auxiliary member to the bracket does not occur.
