Description

本発明は、筐体の開口部を開閉する蓋体を備えた電子機器におけるカバー構造に関する。 The present invention relates to a cover structure in an electronic device provided with a lid that opens and closes an opening of a housing.

ゲートウェイやハブ等の電子機器では、ＬＡＮケーブルやＵＳＢメモリ等が接続されるコネクタを備えている。多数のＬＡＮケーブルが常時接続されるコネクタは、筐体から露出した状態で取付けられているものが多い。しかし，ＵＳＢメモリ等の、使用するときにのみ接続され、不使用時には接続されないコネクタの場合は、ゴミや埃の侵入を防止するために、通常は蓋状のカバー部材で覆い、使用時にカバー部材を開放して接続することが望ましい。 Electronic devices such as gateways and hubs are equipped with connectors to which LAN cables, USB memory, etc. are connected. Many of the connectors to which a large number of LAN cables are always connected are installed in a state of being exposed from the housing. However, in the case of a connector such as a USB memory that is connected only when used and not connected when not in use, it is usually covered with a lid-shaped cover member to prevent dust and dirt from entering, and the cover member is used when used. It is desirable to open and connect.

このような従来のカバー構造として一般的なものは、例えば特許文献１や特許文献２に記載されているように、筐体の裏面側にカバー部材を収容可能なカバー収容部を設け、コネクタを開放したときはカバー部材がカバー収容部に収容されて外部から隠れる構造のものが多い。このような構造では、デザインや構造の制約から筐体裏面側にカバー収容部を形成することができない場合がある。また、カバー部材の表面にユーザーが操作し易いように摘みを形成すると、裏面側のカバー収容部を大型化する必要が生じるので、この場合にも筐体の裏面側にカバー収容部を形成することができない。
このような不具合を解消するためには、カバー部材を収容するカバー収容部を形成することなく、カバー部材を筐体の表面側に配置し、カバー部材が筐体表面に沿って平行にスライドするのみの構造とすることが考えられる。 As for such a general conventional cover structure, for example, as described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, a cover accommodating portion capable of accommodating a cover member is provided on the back surface side of the housing, and a connector is provided. When opened, the cover member is often housed in the cover accommodating portion and hidden from the outside. In such a structure, it may not be possible to form the cover accommodating portion on the back surface side of the housing due to restrictions on the design and structure. Further, if a knob is formed on the front surface of the cover member so that the user can easily operate the cover member, it is necessary to increase the size of the cover accommodating portion on the back surface side. Therefore, in this case as well, the cover accommodating portion is formed on the back surface side of the housing. Can't.
In order to eliminate such a problem, the cover member is arranged on the surface side of the housing without forming a cover accommodating portion for accommodating the cover member, and the cover member slides in parallel along the surface of the housing. It is conceivable to have a structure of only.

以下、本発明に係る電子機器におけるカバー構造の一実施の形態を図１〜図９を参照して詳細に説明する。
図１に示す電子機器１は、箱状の筐体２を備えている。筐体２の一側部には配線接続部３が設けられている。この筐体２は、上面２Ａを有するアッパーケース４と、下面（図示せず）を有するロアケース５とを組み合わせることによって構成されている。アッパーケース４とロアケース５は、それぞれ有底角筒状に形成され、開口部どうしを互いに対向させて組み合わせられている。この実施の形態においては、アッパーケース４とロアケース５とのうちいずれか一方が請求項３記載の発明でいう「第１のケース」に相当し、他方が請求項３記載の発明でいう「第２のケース」に相当する。また、この実施の形態においては、アッパーケース４が請求項３記載の発明でいう「他方のケース」に相当し、ロアケース５が請求項３記載の発明でいう「一方のケース」に相当する。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the cover structure in the electronic device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 9.
The electronic device 1 shown in FIG. 1 includes a box-shaped housing 2. A wiring connection portion 3 is provided on one side portion of the housing 2. The housing 2 is configured by combining an upper case 4 having an upper surface 2A and a lower case 5 having a lower surface (not shown). The upper case 4 and the lower case 5 are each formed in a bottomed square tube shape, and the openings are combined so as to face each other. In this embodiment, one of the upper case 4 and the lower case 5 corresponds to the "first case" in the invention according to claim 3, and the other corresponds to the "first case" in the invention according to claim 3. Corresponds to "2 cases". Further, in this embodiment, the upper case 4 corresponds to the "other case" in the invention according to claim 3, and the lower case 5 corresponds to the "one case" in the invention according to claim 3.

配線接続部３には、複数のＬＡＮコネクタ１１およびＵＳＢメモリ用コネクタ１２と、電源コネクタ１３と、光コネクタ１４（図３参照）などが設けられている。光コネクタ１４は、本発明に係るカバー構造１５と対向するように筐体２の内側に配置されている。
カバー構造１５は、光コネクタ１４に接続するケーブル（図示せず）を通すための挿入口２１（図３参照）を含んで構成されている。挿入口２１は、筐体２の配線接続部３を構成する壁２２を貫通するように形成されている。挿入口２１の開口形状は四角形である。このため、挿入口２１は、互いに対向する平行な二つの開口縁２１ａ，２１ｂを有している。以下においては、これらの開口縁２１ａ，２１ｂが延びる方向を便宜上、左右方向といい、アッパーケース４とロアケース５とが並ぶ方向を上下方向という。 The wiring connection portion 3 is provided with a plurality of LAN connectors 11, a USB memory connector 12, a power supply connector 13, an optical connector 14 (see FIG. 3), and the like. The optical connector 14 is arranged inside the housing 2 so as to face the cover structure 15 according to the present invention.
The cover structure 15 includes an insertion port 21 (see FIG. 3) for passing a cable (not shown) connected to the optical connector 14. The insertion port 21 is formed so as to penetrate the wall 22 constituting the wiring connection portion 3 of the housing 2. The opening shape of the insertion port 21 is quadrangular. Therefore, the insertion port 21 has two parallel opening edges 21a and 21b facing each other. In the following, the direction in which these opening edges 21a and 21b extend is referred to as a left-right direction for convenience, and the direction in which the upper case 4 and the lower case 5 are aligned is referred to as a vertical direction.

二つの開口縁２１ａ，２１ｂのうち、上側の開口縁２１ａは、図４および図５に示すように、アッパーケース４の内部に形成された上溝２３の下端によって形成されている。この上溝２３は、下方に向けて開口し、上側の開口縁２１ａに沿って左右方向に延びて上レール２４を構成している。上溝２３は、図３に示す挿入口２１の左右方向の開口幅より長く形成され、図３において挿入口２１より右側に延びている。 Of the two opening edges 21a and 21b, the upper opening edge 21a is formed by the lower end of the upper groove 23 formed inside the upper case 4, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5. The upper groove 23 opens downward and extends in the left-right direction along the upper opening edge 21a to form the upper rail 24. The upper groove 23 is formed longer than the opening width in the left-right direction of the insertion port 21 shown in FIG. 3, and extends to the right side of the insertion port 21 in FIG.

二つの開口縁２１ａ，２１ｂのうち、下側の開口縁２１ｂは、図４に示すように、ロアケース５の内部に形成された下溝２５の上端によって形成されている。この下溝２５は、上方に向けて開口し、下側の開口縁２１ｂに沿って左右方向に延びて下レール２６を構成している。下溝２５は、図３に示す挿入口２１の左右方向の開口幅より長く形成され、図３において挿入口２１より右側に延びている。
上述した一対の上レール２４と下レール２６とには、図４および図５に示すように、後述するカバー部材３１の上スライド片３２と下スライド片３３とが挿入されている。カバー部材３１は、上レール２４と下レール２６とに左右方向に移動自在に支持されている。カバー部材３１が一対の上レール２４と下レール２６とに沿って移動することにより、挿入口２１が選択的に閉じられる。この実施の形態においては、下レール２６が本発明でいう「一方のレール」に相当し、上レール２４が本発明でいう「他方のレール」に相当する。 Of the two opening edges 21a and 21b, the lower opening edge 21b is formed by the upper end of the lower groove 25 formed inside the lower case 5, as shown in FIG. The lower groove 25 opens upward and extends in the left-right direction along the lower opening edge 21b to form the lower rail 26. The lower groove 25 is formed longer than the opening width in the left-right direction of the insertion port 21 shown in FIG. 3, and extends to the right side of the insertion port 21 in FIG.
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the upper slide piece 32 and the lower slide piece 33 of the cover member 31, which will be described later, are inserted into the pair of upper rails 24 and lower rails 26 described above. The cover member 31 is supported by the upper rail 24 and the lower rail 26 so as to be movable in the left-right direction. The insertion port 21 is selectively closed by the cover member 31 moving along the pair of upper rails 24 and lower rails 26. In this embodiment, the lower rail 26 corresponds to the "one rail" in the present invention, and the upper rail 24 corresponds to the "other rail" in the present invention.

カバー部材３１は、図８および図９に示すように、板状に形成されており、上下方向の中央部に位置する閉鎖部３４と、この閉鎖部３４の上端に接続された上スライド片３２と、閉鎖部３４の下端に接続された下スライド片３３とから構成されている。閉鎖部３４は、挿入口２１を閉塞するものである。閉鎖部３４の左右方向の略中央部には、ユーザー（図示せず）が指で摘まむことができるように摘み部３５が設けられている。この実施の形態による摘み部３５は、上下方向に延びる突条によって形成されている。 As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the cover member 31 is formed in a plate shape, and has a closing portion 34 located at the center in the vertical direction and an upper slide piece 32 connected to the upper end of the closing portion 34. And a lower slide piece 33 connected to the lower end of the closing portion 34. The closing portion 34 closes the insertion port 21. A picking portion 35 is provided at a substantially central portion in the left-right direction of the closing portion 34 so that a user (not shown) can pick it with a finger. The knob 35 according to this embodiment is formed by a ridge extending in the vertical direction.

上スライド片３２の裏面３２ａ（図９参照）には、摺動片３６が筐体２の内側に向けて突出するように設けられている。摺動片３６は、上レール２４を構成する上溝２３の筐体内側に位置する内側溝壁２３ａ（図４参照）に摺接する。このため、カバー部材３１の上スライド片３２は、内側溝壁２３ａに向かう方向への移動が規制された状態で上レール２４に沿って左右方向に移動する。 A sliding piece 36 is provided on the back surface 32a (see FIG. 9) of the upper slide piece 32 so as to project toward the inside of the housing 2. The sliding piece 36 is in sliding contact with the inner groove wall 23a (see FIG. 4) located inside the housing of the upper groove 23 constituting the upper rail 24. Therefore, the upper slide piece 32 of the cover member 31 moves in the left-right direction along the upper rail 24 in a state where the movement in the direction toward the inner groove wall 23a is restricted.

下スライド片３３の表面３３ａ（図８参照）であって左右方向の両端部には、半球状を呈する突起２７がそれぞれ設けられている。これらの突起２７は、下溝２５の筐体外側に位置する外側溝壁２５ａ（図６参照）に形成された複数の係合凹部２８（図６参照）に係合する。突起２７が係合凹部２８に係合することにより、カバー部材３１が左右方向に容易に移動することができなくなり、その位置に保持される。係合凹部２８は、図２に示すようにカバー部材３１が挿入口２１を覆って閉鎖するときの突起２７と対応する位置と、図３に示すようにカバー部材３１が挿入口２１を開くときの突起２７の位置と対応する位置とにそれぞれ設けられている。このため、カバー部材３１は、挿入口２１を閉じた位置と、挿入口２１が開いた位置とに保持される。 Hemispherical protrusions 27 are provided on the surface 33a (see FIG. 8) of the lower slide piece 33 at both ends in the left-right direction. These protrusions 27 engage with a plurality of engaging recesses 28 (see FIG. 6) formed in the outer groove wall 25a (see FIG. 6) located outside the housing of the lower groove 25. When the protrusion 27 engages with the engaging recess 28, the cover member 31 cannot easily move in the left-right direction and is held at that position. The engaging recess 28 is located at a position corresponding to the protrusion 27 when the cover member 31 covers and closes the insertion port 21 as shown in FIG. 2, and when the cover member 31 opens the insertion port 21 as shown in FIG. It is provided at the position of the protrusion 27 and the corresponding position, respectively. Therefore, the cover member 31 is held at a position where the insertion port 21 is closed and a position where the insertion port 21 is open.

下レール２６を構成する下溝２５は、図６に示すように、外側溝壁２５ａと内側溝壁２５ｂとを有している。外側溝壁２５ａは、挿入口２１の下側の開口縁２１ｂとなる筐体２の壁２２によって形成されている。内側溝壁２５ｂは、外側溝壁２５ａより筐体２の内部に位置し、上レール２４に向けて延びて挿入口２１と隣り合う露出面４１を構成している。露出面４１は、挿入口２１がカバー部材３１で閉じられる状態で筐体表面になる。内側溝壁２５ｂは、上レール２４に向かうにしたがって次第に筐体２の内側に位置するように傾斜している。言い換えると、内側溝壁２５ｂは、図４に示すように、外側溝壁２５ａと平行に上下方向に延びる仮想線Ｌに対して角度αだけ傾斜するような勾配をもって形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 6, the lower groove 25 constituting the lower rail 26 has an outer groove wall 25a and an inner groove wall 25b. The outer groove wall 25a is formed by a wall 22 of the housing 2 that serves as an opening edge 21b on the lower side of the insertion port 21. The inner groove wall 25b is located inside the housing 2 from the outer groove wall 25a, extends toward the upper rail 24, and constitutes an exposed surface 41 adjacent to the insertion port 21. The exposed surface 41 becomes the housing surface in a state where the insertion port 21 is closed by the cover member 31. The inner groove wall 25b is inclined so as to be gradually located inside the housing 2 toward the upper rail 24. In other words, as shown in FIG. 4, the inner groove wall 25b is formed with a gradient such that it is inclined by an angle α with respect to the virtual line L extending in the vertical direction in parallel with the outer groove wall 25a.

このように構成されたカバー構造１５においては、ユーザー（図示せず）がカバー部材３１の摘み部３５を摘まんで左右方向に移動させることにより、挿入口２１が開閉して光コネクタ１４が露出したり隠れたりする。図２に示すように光コネクタ１４が隠れるようにカバー部材３１を移動させると、下レール２６から上方に延びる露出面４１が露出する。この露出面４１は、上述したように勾配を有しているから、カバー部材３１の裏面よりも筐体２の内側に離れて位置するようになる。このため、図３に示すように、カバー部材３１が露出面４１側に移動したときにカバー部材３１の裏面と露出面４１との間に隙間が形成されるから、このときに露出面４１に傷がつくことを防止することができる。 In the cover structure 15 configured in this way, when the user (not shown) picks the grip portion 35 of the cover member 31 and moves it in the left-right direction, the insertion port 21 opens and closes to expose the optical connector 14. Or hide. When the cover member 31 is moved so as to hide the optical connector 14 as shown in FIG. 2, the exposed surface 41 extending upward from the lower rail 26 is exposed. Since the exposed surface 41 has a gradient as described above, the exposed surface 41 is located closer to the inside of the housing 2 than the back surface of the cover member 31. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, when the cover member 31 moves to the exposed surface 41 side, a gap is formed between the back surface of the cover member 31 and the exposed surface 41. It is possible to prevent scratches.

したがって、光コネクタ１４を閉鎖したり開放するカバー部材３１を筐体２に対して摺動させても筐体表面（露出面４１）を傷つけることなく、商品価値を高く保つことが可能な電子機器におけるカバー構造を提供することができる。特に、露出面４１の上側が筐体２内側に位置するように露出面４１が傾斜しているから、ロアケース５を成形する金型を用いて露出面４１を成型することができる。このため、金型の構造が複雑になることを防ぎながら傾斜した露出面４１を形成できるから、本発明に係る電子機器のカバー構造を安価に実現することができる。 Therefore, an electronic device capable of maintaining a high commercial value without damaging the housing surface (exposed surface 41) even if the cover member 31 that closes or opens the optical connector 14 is slid with respect to the housing 2. Can provide a cover structure in. In particular, since the exposed surface 41 is inclined so that the upper side of the exposed surface 41 is located inside the housing 2, the exposed surface 41 can be molded by using the mold for molding the lower case 5. Therefore, since the inclined exposed surface 41 can be formed while preventing the mold structure from becoming complicated, the cover structure of the electronic device according to the present invention can be realized at low cost.

この実施の形態においては、カバー部材３１の中央部に前記筐体２の外側に向けて突出する摘み部３５が設けられている。このため、カバー部材３１を移動させるときに操作を行い易い。
また、この実施の形態においては、上レール２４がアッパーケース４に設けられ、下レール２６がロアケース５に設けられている。このため、アッパーケース４とロアケース５との合わせ部分を利用して上レール２４と下レール２６とを簡単に形成することができる。 In this embodiment, a knob portion 35 is provided at the center of the cover member 31 so as to project toward the outside of the housing 2. Therefore, it is easy to perform an operation when moving the cover member 31.
Further, in this embodiment, the upper rail 24 is provided in the upper case 4 and the lower rail 26 is provided in the lower case 5. Therefore, the upper rail 24 and the lower rail 26 can be easily formed by using the mating portion of the upper case 4 and the lower case 5.
