JP-A-9-318777 (page 2-3, FIG. 1-3)

  However, the conventional measuring instrument has the following problems. That is, the conventional measuring instrument is configured to be used in a state where the front panel is inclined upward by being installed with the stand raised from the main body. In this case, in the measurement process using this type of measuring instrument (measuring device), the installation surface having a height approximately equal to the height of the user's line of sight, or an installation surface slightly higher than the height of the line of sight (for example, A measuring instrument may be installed on the shelf of the storage shelf. However, with conventional measuring instruments, either the installation posture with the front panel facing upward by installing it with the stand retracted, or the installation posture with the front panel tilted upward by installing with the stand raised It is the structure which can select only. Therefore, in a conventional measuring instrument, for example, when installed on an installation surface having a height similar to the height of the user's line of sight, in either the state where the stand is stored or the state where the stand is raised, It is difficult to improve the visibility of the display unit.

  In this case, with the conventional measuring instrument, when the stand is stored, when the front panel is installed so that it faces sideways (hereinafter also referred to as “installed sideways”), only the stand that is stored is installed. It becomes a very unstable state in contact with the surface. In addition, even if the stand is raised sideways with the stand raised from the main body, the stand that is raised from the main body does not touch the installation surface because the side panel of the main body only touches the installation surface. It becomes a stable state. For this reason, with conventional measuring instruments, the main body part may fall over when installed sideways, or in the worst case, it may fall from the shelf, causing damage to the measuring instrument. There is a problem of inviting. On the other hand, a configuration is conceivable in which the stability of the measuring instrument in a state of being installed in a lateral direction is improved by forming a wide side panel (a surface in contact with the installation surface in a state of being installed in a lateral direction) of the main body. However, when such a configuration is adopted, when the front panel is installed with the front panel facing upward, the wide side panel is obstructed, and the above measurement is performed for the wide side panel. As a result of the larger size than the container, there arises a problem that a large space is required for storage and carrying.

  The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and the front panel is turned sideways without being present at the time of storage or carrying and when installed with the front panel facing upward.

In this case, the screw hole 15a2 is formed so as to be positioned above the screw hole 15a1 in the “vertical direction of the front panel in the second installation posture” in the present invention.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the front panel 11 of the apparatus main body 2 has a plurality of screw holes 16a, 16a, 16b, 16b for attaching the support members 3 (front-side members 22) to the four corners (" An example of “front-side mounting portion” is formed. In this case, the screw hole 16a is provided at a position overlapping the screw hole 15a1 in the thickness direction of the apparatus main body 2 (opposite direction of the front panel 11 and the back panel 12), and the screw hole 16b is the thickness direction of the apparatus main body 2. Are provided at positions overlapping the screw holes 15b1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the above-described screw holes 16 a, 16 a, 16 b are provided in the side panel 13 a of the apparatus main body 2 (the “side panel facing the installation surface in the second installation posture” in the present invention). , 16b is formed with a pair of screw holes 17 and 17 (an example of the “side-side attachment portion” in the present invention) to which the front-side member 22 removed from any one of them can be attached.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the support member 3 includes a back side member 21 and a front side member 22 configured to be detachable from the apparatus main body 2. The back side member 21 is protruded to the back side of the apparatus main body 2 in a state where it is attached to the screw holes 15 a 1, 15 a 2, 15 b 1, 15 b 2 of the apparatus main body 2. In this measuring apparatus 1, each rear side member 21 is usually screwed into the screw holes 15a1 and 15b1. Further, the front side member 22 is protruded to the front side of the apparatus main body 2 in a state where it is attached to the screw holes 16 a and 16 b of the apparatus main body 2. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, a screw for attaching to the apparatus main body 2 is implanted in the back side member 21, and this screw is screwed into the screw holes 15a1, 15a2, 15b1, and 15b2 as shown in FIG. It is configured to be movable along the contact / separation direction with respect to the panel 11. Further, a screw for attaching to the apparatus main body 2 is implanted in the front side member 22, and the screw can be moved along the contact / separation direction with respect to the front panel 11 by screwing the screw into the screw holes 16a and 16b. It is configured.

  In this measuring apparatus 1, as shown in FIG. 4, it is installed on the installation surface Z so as to support the apparatus main body 2 by all of the four support members 3 (four back side members 21). It is configured so that it can be used in the state (the “first installation posture” in the present invention) in which the panel 11 is directed upward (directly upward in the figure). As described above, the front panel 11 is mounted on the installation surface Z so that the apparatus main body 2 is supported by two of the four support members 3 (the back side member 21 and the front side member 22). In this case, the measuring apparatus 1 is configured so that it can be used in a state (an example of a state in which it is installed in the “second installation position” in the present invention) in a horizontal direction (in the same figure, a horizontal direction). The front panel The two support members 3 (the support members 3 attached to the left and right corners of the side panel 13a) in contact with the installation surface Z in a state where 11 is set to be in a lateral direction are “at least in the second installation posture” in the present invention. It corresponds to a “support member that supports the apparatus main body”.

  Moreover, in this measuring apparatus 1, by adjusting the screwing amount of the back side member 21 with respect to the apparatus main body 2, the protrusion amount of the back side member 21 from the back panel 12 can be adjusted steplessly, and the apparatus main body The amount of protrusion of the front side member 22 from the front panel 11 can be adjusted by adjusting the screwing amount of the front side member 22 with respect to 2 steplessly. Thereby, in this measuring apparatus 1, when the front panel 11 is installed so as to be in a lateral direction by appropriately changing the screwing amounts of the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 into the apparatus main body 2, both the supporting members 3 are installed. And the rear side end portion Pr (one point of the back side member 21: an example of “a part of the back side member in contact with the installation surface in the second installation posture” in the present invention) of the portion in contact with the installation surface Z) and the front side Steplessly adjusting the length between the end portion Pf (one point on the front end side of the front side member 22: “an example of a portion that contacts the installation surface in the second installation posture in the front side member” in the present invention)) It is possible to do.

  Specifically, the length between the back side end portion Pr and the front side end portion Pf is a state in which both the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 are completely screwed (indicated by a broken line in FIG. 6). It is possible to adjust as appropriate within a range from a length L1 to a length L2 in a state where the screwing amounts of both the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 are reduced (a state indicated by a solid line in the figure). ing. In FIG. 6, two support members 3 (two support members 3 on the side panel 13 a side, which are located on the lower side in a state where the front panel 11 is set in a lateral direction, are referred to as “lower side” below. In this measuring apparatus 1, the amount of screwing of the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 is adjusted. Similarly to the lower support member 3, the rear support member 21 and the front member 22 are also used for the support members 3 (hereinafter, these two support members 3 are also referred to as “upper support members 3”). Can be adjusted (see FIG. 2).

  Therefore, in this measuring device 1, as shown in FIG. 5, for example, the screwing amount of the back side member 21 to the device body 2 in the two lower support members 3 is increased (as an example, completely screwed), By reducing the screwing amount of the back side member 21 into the apparatus main body 2 in the two upper support members 3, the back side member 21 above the lower back side member 21 is made to protrude greatly from the back panel 12, and this state Thus, by installing the apparatus main body 2 so as to be supported by the respective back side members 21, it is possible to use the front panel 11 in an obliquely upward direction (a slightly lateral direction rather than an upward direction). Further, in this state, the screwing amount of the back-side member 21 to the apparatus main body 2 in the two upper support members 3 (the protruding amount of the two upper back-side members 21), and the back face of the two lower support members 3 It is also possible to adjust the inclination of the front panel 11 with respect to the installation surface Z by adjusting one of the screwing amounts of the side members 21 with respect to the apparatus main body 2 (the protruding amounts of the two lower rear side members 21). ing.

  Further, in the measuring apparatus 1, as described above, the screw holes 15a2 and 15b2 are formed closer to the center of the back panel 12 than the screw holes 15a1 and 15b1. Accordingly, by removing the back side member 21 of the lower two support members 3 from the screw holes 15a1 and 15a1 of the apparatus main body 2 and attaching them to the screw holes 15a2 and 15a2 (“the mounting position of the back side member is the second installation position”). One example of the work of “adjusting in the vertical direction in the posture”), as shown in FIG. 7, the corners on the side panel 13a side of the apparatus main body 2 and the rear side members 21 and 21 attached to the screw holes 15a2 and 15a2 Thus, it is possible to support the apparatus main body 2 and use the front panel 11 in an oblique lateral direction (slightly upward from the true lateral direction).

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, the housing case 4 includes a case body 4 a and a lid 4 b, and is configured to be able to house the apparatus body 2 with the support member 3 attached. In this case, on the surface of the lid 4b (the upper surface in the figure), the entire back side member 21 attached to the screw holes 15a1 and 15b1 of the apparatus main body 2 (“at least the front end portion of the back side member in the present invention”). ”Is an entire configuration example), and four insertion holes 31 into which the rear panel members 21 are fitted into the respective insertion holes 31 can be fitted into the rear panel 12 side of the apparatus main body 2. A concave portion 32 is provided. As a result, as shown in FIG. 10, in this measuring apparatus 1, the apparatus main body 2 (the apparatus main body 2 with the support member 3 attached) taken out from the storage case 4 is fitted into the lid 4 b of the storage case 4. Thus, the apparatus main body 2, the support member 3, and the housing case 4 can be integrated.

  In the measuring apparatus 1, the apparatus main body 2 with the support member 3 attached is accommodated in the accommodating case 4 when being accommodated or carried. At this time, as shown by a solid line in FIG. 4, the back-side member 21 and the front-side member 22 are screwed so that the screwing amount with respect to the apparatus main body 2 is maximized in all of the four support members 3 (the back-side member). 21 and the front side member 22 are completely screwed in). In the following, unless otherwise specified, as shown in the figure, each of the back side members 21 is screwed into the screw holes 15a1 and 15b1 and attached to the apparatus main body 2, and the front side member 22 is Assume that the screw holes 16a and 16b are screwed into the apparatus main body 2. Thereby, the protrusion amount of the back side member 21 from the back panel 12 and the protrusion amount of the front side member 22 from the front panel 11 are the smallest (the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 are closest to the front panel 11). The apparatus main body 2 in a state in which each support member 3 is attached becomes the most compact state. Therefore, the situation where the back side member 21 protruded from the back panel 12 and the front side member 22 protruded from the front panel 11 become obstructive is avoided.

  In this case, as described above, in the measurement apparatus 1, the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 can be detached from the apparatus main body 2. Accordingly, by removing all of the four back side members 21 and the four front side members 22 from the apparatus main body 2, there are no members protruding from the back panel 12 or the front panel 11. 21 and the front side member 22 can be made into a more compact state than the above-described state in which they are completely screwed. Further, by carrying the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 removed from the measuring device 2 together with the apparatus main body 2, the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 are attached to the apparatus main body 2 as necessary, and will be described later. It can be used in various usage forms.

  On the other hand, when the apparatus main body 2 is installed and used on the floor surface or the like (when installed on the installation surface Z lower than the height of the user's line of sight), each of the back side member 21 and each front side member 22 is The apparatus main body 2 is installed so as to be supported by the four back side members 21 with the screwing amount being maximized (when stored or carried). At this time, since the front panel 11 faces directly upward, the visibility of the display unit 11a and the operability of the operation unit 11b from the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. As a result, various measurement processes using the apparatus main body 2 (measurement apparatus 1) installed on the floor or the like can be reliably and easily executed.

  In this case, when the user is located on the left side of the figure, the screwing amount of the back side member 21 in the upper two support members 3 (the right side support member 3 in the figure) is reduced (the upper two The back side member 21 is protruded largely from the back panel 12 by moving the back side member 21 in a direction away from the front panel 11). By installing the apparatus main body 2 so as to support the apparatus main body 2 by the respective back side members 21 in this state, the front panel 11 can be used while being inclined obliquely upward as shown in FIG. In this state, the visibility of the display unit 11a from the direction of the arrow shown in the figure and the operability of the operation unit 11b are good, so that the apparatus main body 2 (measurement apparatus 1) installed on the floor surface is used. The various measurement processes thus performed can be executed more reliably and easily.

  In this case, in this measuring apparatus 1, it is possible to avoid an accident in which a fallen object or the like collides with the front panel 11 by projecting the front side member 22 from the front panel 11. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, for example, a state in which the screwing amount of each front side member 22 with respect to the apparatus main body 2 is maximized (the front panel by bringing each front side member 22 closest to the front panel). 11), the protruding end surface (upper surface in FIG. 1) of the front side member 22 is higher than the surface of the front panel 11 by a height H1. Therefore, as a result of the fallen object falling on the apparatus main body 2 coming into contact with the protruding end surface of each front side member 22 and stopping, a situation in which the fallen object collides with the front panel 11 is avoided. Thereby, the situation where a falling object collides and the display part 11a and the operation part 11b are damaged is avoided.

  Moreover, in this measuring apparatus 1, as shown with the broken line in the same figure, the screw amount of the front side member 22 is made small in all the four support members 3 (each front side member 22 is spaced apart from the front panel). Thus, in a state in which the amount of protrusion of the front side member 22 from the front panel 11 is increased), the height H2 between the protruding end surface of each front side member 22 and the front panel 11 is higher than the height H1 described above. Become. Therefore, the situation where the fallen object that has fallen on the apparatus main body 2 collides with the front panel 11 is more reliably avoided. As described above, even in a state where the front panel 11 is inclined obliquely upward (see FIG. 5), the apparatus main body 2 (front surface) is provided by the front side member 22 in the same manner as in the state where the front panel 11 is directed upward. The display unit 11a and the operation unit 11b) of the panel 11 are protected from falling objects.

  Furthermore, in this measuring apparatus 1, according to the screwing amount of the front side member 22 with respect to the apparatus main body 2, the protruding end surface of the front side member 22 is in the range of heights H <b> 1 to H <b> 2 than the surface of the front panel 11 as described above. Get higher within. Therefore, for example, when the apparatus main body 2 is mistakenly installed upside down (when the front panel 11 is installed so as to face downward), between the installation surface and the front panel 11 surface, A gap having a sufficient height within the range of heights H1 to H2 is generated according to the screwing amount of the front side member 22. For this reason, even if writing instruments, tools, etc. are placed on the installation surface, they touch the front panel 11 and the display unit 11a is damaged, or the operation switch of the operation unit 11b is operated by mistake. Situation is avoided.

  Further, when the apparatus main body 2 (measuring apparatus 1) is installed on the installation surface Z having a height equivalent to the height of the user's eyes or slightly higher than the height of the user's eyes, FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 in the upper support member 3 are increased in screwing amount (for example, completely screwed in), and the back side member 21 and the front side in the lower support member 3 In the state where the screwing amount of the member 22 is reduced (the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 in the lower support member 3 are sufficiently separated from the front panel 11), the two lower support members 3 The apparatus main body 2 is installed to be supported by the rear side member 21 and the front side member 22. At this time, since the front panel 11 is oriented sideways, the visibility of the display unit 11a and the operability of the operation unit 11b from the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. As a result, it is possible to reliably and easily execute various measurement processes using the apparatus main body 2 (measurement apparatus 1) installed on a shelf board or the like.

  In this case, in this measuring apparatus 1, the screwing amount of the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 in the lower two support members 3 with respect to the apparatus main body 2 is sufficiently small (the back side member 21 and the front side member 22). Is installed on the installation surface Z in a state of being sufficiently separated from the front panel 11), and the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 in the two support members 3 are completely screwed into the apparatus main body 2. Compared with the case where the rear side member 21 and the front side member 22 are brought close to the front panel 11 (the state indicated by the broken line in FIG. 6), the distance between the rear side member 21 and the front side member 22 The length (the length between the back side end portion Pr and the front side end portion Pf) is sufficiently long. Specifically, the length L1 between the back-side end Pr and the front-side end Pf when the back-side member 21 and the front-side member 22 are installed in a completely screwed state (shown by a broken line in the figure). The length L2 between the rear side end portion Pr and the front side end portion Pf when installed in a state where the screwing amounts of the rear side member 21 and the front side member 22 are reduced (state shown by the solid line in the figure). Is longer.

  Therefore, although the apparatus main body 2 is thin (the side panel 13a is narrow), when the side panel 13a is installed with the side panel 13a facing downward, the back sides are sufficiently separated from the front panel 11, respectively. As a result of the apparatus main body 2 being supported by the member 21 and the front side member 22, for example, compared with a case where the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 are installed in a completely screwed state (when stored or carried). The apparatus main body 2 is in a sufficiently stable state. As a result, for example, a situation in which the apparatus main body 2 falls due to shaking in the left-right direction in FIG.

  On the other hand, when the apparatus main body 2 (measurement apparatus 1) is installed on the installation surface Z slightly lower than the height of the user's line of sight (for example, the apparatus main body 2 is installed on a desk and the user sits on a chair and performs measurement processing). When executing, the back side member 21 of the lower two support members 3 is removed from the screw hole 15a1 and screwed into the 15a2. At this time, since the screw hole 15a2 is formed closer to the center of the back panel 12 (upward in the vertical direction in the second installation posture) than the screw hole 15a1, the back side member 21 is attached to the screw hole 15a2. By screwing, the back side member 21 is attached closer to the center (upper side) of the back panel 12 than when screwed into the screw hole 15a1.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 7, the measuring device 1 (device main body 2) is configured so that the back side member 21 screwed into the screw hole 15 a 2 and the corner portion on the side panel 13 a side of the device main body 2 are brought into contact with the installation surface Z. Is installed. As a result, as shown in the figure, the apparatus main body 2 is supported by the back side member 21 screwed into the screw hole 15a2 and the corners of the apparatus main body 2 on the side panel 13a side, and the front panel 11 is inclined obliquely sideways. The visibility of the display unit 11a and the operability of the operation unit 11b from the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. As a result, various measurement processes using the apparatus main body 2 (measurement apparatus 1) installed on a desk or the like can be reliably and easily executed.

  In this case, when the back panel 21 is screwed into the screw hole 15a2 and used for a long time in a state in which the front panel 11 is inclined obliquely sideways, as shown in FIG. The front side member 22 is removed from the holes 16a and 16a, and the front side member 22 is screwed into the screw holes 17 and 17 formed in the side panel 13a. In this state, the apparatus main body 2 is supported in a state where the front panel 11 is inclined sideways by the back side member 21 screwed into the screw hole 15a2 and the front side member 22 screwed into the screw hole 17, so that FIG. It is possible to stabilize the apparatus main body 2 while maintaining the visibility of the display unit 11a from the direction of the arrow shown and the operability of the operation unit 11b being good.

  Further, in this measuring apparatus 1, not only the lower two support members 3 but also the back side members 21 of the upper two support members 3 are removed from the screw holes 15b1 and screwed into the screw holes 15b2, as shown in FIG. In addition, the apparatus main body 2 can be supported by the two back side members 21 screwed into the screw holes 15a2 and the two back side members 21 screwed into the screw holes 15b2. In this case, similarly to the screw hole 15a2, the screw hole 15b2 into which the back side member 21 of the two upper support members 3 is screwed is also closer to the center of the back panel 12 than the screw hole 15b1 (the lower side in the second installation posture). ), The back side member 21 is attached closer to the center of the back panel 12 (lower side: left side in the figure) than when screwed into the screw hole 15b1. Therefore, by supporting the apparatus main body 2 by the back side members 21 screwed into the screw holes 15a2 and 15b, the back side members 21 can be installed even when the installation surface Z is relatively narrow as shown in FIG. The apparatus main body 2 can be installed in a state in which the surface Z is securely contacted.

  Furthermore, in this measuring apparatus 1, when the measuring apparatus 1 (apparatus main body 2) is installed on, for example, outdoor sand or grassland, the apparatus main body 2 may be installed on the lid 4b of the housing case 4 and used. It is possible. In this case, as described above, the lid 4 b of the housing case 4 is formed with a fitting hole 31 into which the back side member 21 of each supporting member 3 attached to the apparatus main body 2 can be fitted. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 10, the support body is provided by installing the apparatus main body 2 on the housing case 4 (lid 4 b) so that the back surface side member 21 of each support member 3 is inserted into each insertion hole 31. As a result of the apparatus body 2 installed via 3 being integrated with the housing case 4, a situation in which the apparatus body 2 falls from the housing case 4 is avoided. In addition, compared with a state in which the apparatus main body 2 is directly installed on sandy land, grassland or the like (a state in which the back side member 21 of each support member 3 is in contact with sandy land, grassland, or the like), the apparatus main body 2 or the supporting member 3. In addition to avoiding contamination, the main body 2 and the support member 3 can be installed in a stable state via the housing case 4 because the wide bottom surface of the housing case 4 is in contact with sand or grassland. It has become.

Thus, according to this measuring apparatus 1, each support member 3 includes the back-side member 21 attached to the back panel 12 of the apparatus body 2, and at least the second installation posture of each support member 3. The support member 3 (all support members 3 in this example) that supports the apparatus main body 2 in a state where the front panel 11 is turned sideways includes a front side member 22 attached to the front panel 11 of the apparatus main body 2. In addition , by adjusting at least one of the protruding amount of the back side member 21 from the back panel 12 and the protruding amount of the front side member 22 from the front panel 11 , the installation surface of the back side member 21 in the second installation posture is adjusted. that the adjustable arrangement the length between the portion contacting the Z portion contacting the installation surface Z by the second installation arrangement in (rear end Pr) and the front side member 22 (the front end Pf) Ri, without providing the wide side panels such that an obstacle when installing the first installation orientation, when installed in a second installation position, the projecting amount of the rear side member 21 from the back panel 12, Further, at least one of the protruding amounts of the front side member 22 from the front panel 11 is increased (at least one of the back side member 21 and the front side member 22 is moved away from the front panel 11 : back side) end Pr and keep increasing the length between the front end Pf) that is a result it is possible to improve the stability in the installed state of the apparatus body 2, or toppling device main body 2, falling Therefore, it is possible to avoid damage to the measuring apparatus 1 due to falling or dropping. Further, according to the measuring apparatus 1, the amount of protrusion of the rear side member 21 from the rear panel 12 and the front side member from the front panel 11 when stored, transported, and installed in the first installation posture. At least one of the protrusion amounts of 22 is made small (at least one of the rear side member 21 and the front side member 22 is moved so as to approach the front panel 11 : the rear side end portion Pr and the front side. By reducing the length between the side end portion Pf) , the overall size can be reduced.

Further, according to the measuring apparatus 1, the support member for supporting the device main body 2 in the second installation position even without least 3 (the lower side of the support member 3: In this example, all of the support member 3), the back panel For example, the front-side member 22 is fixedly attached to the front panel 11 by adjusting both the protruding amount of the rear-side member 21 from 12 and the protruding amount of the front-side member 22 from the front panel 11. Compared to the configuration in which the rear side member 21 is fixedly attached to the rear panel 12, the amount of protrusion of both the rear side member 21 and the front side member 22 can be adjusted (the rear side). As long as both the member 21 and the front side member 22 can be brought into and out of contact with the front panel 11 ) , the back side member 21 and the front surface are sufficiently separated from each other when installed in the second installation posture. Side member 2 Since the apparatus main body 2 can be supported by 2, the apparatus main body 2 in the second installation posture can be further stabilized.

  Furthermore, according to this measuring apparatus 1, the apparatus main body 2 is supported at least in the second installation posture so as to be detachable from the back side mounting portions (screw holes 15a1, 15a2, 15b1, 15b2) formed in the apparatus main body 2. The rear side member 21 of the supporting member 3 (the lower side supporting member 3: in this example, all the supporting members 3) is configured, and the mounting position of the rear side member 21 is adjusted in the vertical direction in the second installation posture. Since a plurality of back side mounting portions (screw holes 15a1, 15a2, 15b1, 15b2) are formed in the back panel 12 of the apparatus main body 2, the back side member 21 is removed from the screw holes 15a1 and above the screw holes 15a1. The side panel 13 on the lower side of the apparatus body 2 (in this example, the side panel 13a) As a result of the apparatus body 2 is supported by the rear side member 21 attached to the screw hole 15a2, it can be installed a front panel 11 obliquely sideways. Thereby, according to this measuring apparatus 1, the visibility of the display part 11a and the operativity of the operation part 11b are fully improved, for example in the state installed in the installation surface Z slightly lower than the height of a user's eyes | visual_axis. be able to. In this case, all the rear side members 21 are configured to be removable from the apparatus main body 2, so that these measuring members 1 can be removed from the apparatus main body 2 as necessary. A compact state can be achieved.

  Further, according to the measuring device 1, the front side member 22 is detachably attached to the front side mounting portions (screw holes 16a, 16b) and the side surface mounting portions (screw holes 17) formed in the device body 2. Are formed on the front panel 11 of the apparatus main body 2 and the front side mounting portion (screw holes 16a, 16b) to which the front side member 22 can be attached and detached is formed. Since the side surface side attachment portion (screw hole 17) to which the side member 22 can be attached and detached is formed in the side surface panel 13a facing the installation surface Z in the second installation posture in the apparatus main body 2, the front panel 11 is inclined sideways. As a result, the apparatus main body 2 can be supported by the back side member 21 screwed into the screw hole 15a2 and the front side member 22 screwed into the screw hole 17. Compared attached to side panels 13a and screw holes 15a2 and the rear side member 21 by the structure for supporting the apparatus body 2, it is also possible to sufficiently stabilize the apparatus main body 2. In this case, like this measuring device 1, all the front side members 22 are configured to be detachable from the device main body 2, so that these members can be removed from the device main body 2 as necessary. Accordingly, the measuring device 1 can be made more compact.

  Furthermore, according to this measuring apparatus 1, the apparatus main body 2 to which the support member 3 is attached is configured to be accommodated, and the insertion hole 31 into which at least the distal end portion of the back side member 21 of each support member 3 can be fitted is provided on one side. When the storage case 4 is provided on the unstable installation surface Z such as sand or grassland, the storage case 4 is placed on the installation surface Z. By installing the support member 3 (the back side member 21) in the respective insertion holes 31 of 4, the apparatus main body 2 can be installed on the unstable installation surface Z in a stable state.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to said structure. For example, in the measurement apparatus 1 described above, the length along the extending direction of the front panel 11 between the center Pc in the vertical direction of the front panel 11 (see FIG. 6) and the rear side end portion Pr in the second installation posture, The apparatus main body 2 is supported at least in the second installation posture so that the length along the extending direction of the front panel 11 between the center Pc in the vertical direction of the front panel 11 and the front side end portion Pf of the front panel 11 is equal to each other. The supporting member 3 (in this example, the lower two supporting members 3) is formed, but the front panel 11 extends from the center Pc, the rear side end portion Pr, and the front side end portion Pf. The relationship of the length along the direction is not limited to this.

  Specifically, as in the measurement apparatus 1A shown in FIG. 11, the first along the extending direction of the front panel 11 between the center Pc in the vertical direction of the front panel 11 and the rear end Pr in the second installation posture. The second length (length Lf) in the extending direction of the front panel 11 between the center Pc in the vertical direction of the front panel 11 and the front side end portion Pf is longer than the length of 1 (length Lr). The support member 3A (the lower support member 3A in the figure) that supports the apparatus main body 2 at least in the second installation posture can be formed so as to be longer. In addition, in this measuring apparatus 1A, about the component similar to said measuring apparatus 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In this measuring apparatus 1A, the extension of the front panel 11 between the center Pc and the front end Pf is longer than the length Lr along the extending direction of the front panel 11 between the center Pc and the rear end Pr. Since the back side member 21a and the front side member 22 are formed so that the length Lf along the direction is longer to form the support member 3A, the back side member 21a (the back side end portion Pr) and By installing the front side member 22a (front side end portion Pf) so as to be in contact with the installation surface Z, the front panel 11 can be set in a state of being inclined sideways (slightly upward rather than just sideways). As a result, the visibility of the display unit 11a from the direction of the arrow shown in the figure and the operability of the operation unit 11b are in a favorable state, so various types using the apparatus main body 2 (measurement apparatus 1A) installed on a desk or the like. This measurement process can be executed reliably and easily.

  Moreover, in this measuring apparatus 1A, as shown in FIG. 12, the screwing amount of the back side member 21a and the front side member 22a with respect to the apparatus main body 2 in the two lower support members 3A is the same as the measuring apparatus 1 described above. Is installed on the installation surface Z in a state where the screwing amount of the back side member 21a and the front side member 22a with respect to the apparatus main body 2 in the two support members 3A is maximized. Compared with the state which was made, the length L3 between the back side edge part Pr and the front side edge part Pf can be fully lengthened. Thereby, since the apparatus main body 2 is in a sufficiently stable state, for example, a situation in which the apparatus main body 2 falls due to shaking in the left-right direction in FIG.

  Thus, according to this measuring apparatus 1A, the portion (the rear side end portion) that is in contact with the installation surface Z in the second installation posture at the center Pc in the vertical direction of the front panel 11 in the second installation posture and the rear side member 21a. The installation surface in the second installation posture at the center Pc in the vertical direction of the front panel 11 and the front side member 22a than the first length (length Lr) along the extending direction of the front panel 11 with Pr). The apparatus main body 2 at least in the second installation posture so that the second length (length Lf) along the extending direction of the front panel 11 with the portion (front end Pf) in contact with Z is longer. 3A (the two lower support members 3A: in this example, all the support members 3A) are configured so that the apparatus main body 2 is supported by the back side member 21a and the front side member 22a. Just install Since the front panel 11 can be inclined sideways, the visibility of the display unit 11a and the operability of the operation unit 11b are sufficient in a state where the front panel 11 is installed on the installation surface Z slightly lower than the height of the user's line of sight, for example. Can be improved.

Moreover, according to this measuring apparatus 1A, in the same manner as the measuring apparatus 1 described above, it is possible to install the second installation posture without providing a wide side panel that interferes with the installation in the first installation posture. At the time of installation , at least one of the protruding amount of the back side member 21a from the back panel 12 and the protruding amount of the front side member 22a from the front panel 11 is increased (the back side member 21a and the front side member 22a At least one of them is moved away from the front panel 11 ( the length between the back side end portion Pr and the front side end portion Pf is increased), thereby stabilizing the apparatus main body 2 in the installed state. As a result, it is possible to avoid a situation in which the apparatus main body 2 falls or falls, so that damage to the measuring apparatus 1A due to the fall or fall can be avoided. . Furthermore, according to this measuring apparatus 1A, the amount of protrusion of the rear side member 21a from the rear panel 12 and the front side member from the front panel 11 when stored, transported, and installed in the first installation posture. At least one of the protruding amounts of 22a is made small (at least one of the back side member 21a and the front side member 22a is moved so as to approach the front panel 11 : the back side end portion Pr and the front side By reducing the length between the side end portion Pf) , the overall size can be reduced.

  Further, the measurement apparatus 1 having the housing case 4 in which the four insertion holes 31 into which the back side members 21 of the four support members 3 attached to the apparatus main body 2 can be inserted is formed in the lid 4b has been described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, like the measuring apparatus 1B shown in FIG. 13, it replaces with the insertion hole 31 in the measuring apparatus 1 mentioned above, and the insertion hole which can insert a pair of support member 3 which contact | connects an installation surface in the 2nd installation attitude | position in this invention. 33 (an example of a fitting hole into which at least the tip of the back side member in the present invention can be fitted) can be formed in the lid 4b of the housing case 4. In addition, in this measuring apparatus 1B and the measuring apparatus 1C described later, constituent elements having the same functions as those of the measuring apparatus 1 described above are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

  In this measuring device 1B, when the measuring device 1 (device main body 2) is installed on, for example, outdoor sand or grassland, the device main body 2 is placed on the lid 4b in the housing case 4 in the second installation posture (in this example, The front panel 11 can be installed and used in an installation posture in which the front panel 11 faces sideways. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13, the apparatus main body 2 is installed on the housing case 4 (lid 4 b) so that the pair of support members 3 on the side panel 13 a side are inserted into the both insertion holes 33. Thus, the apparatus main body 2 installed via the support member 3 is integrated with the housing case 4. As a result, a situation in which the apparatus main body 2 falls from above the housing case 4 is avoided. Further, as compared with the state in which the apparatus main body 2 is directly installed on a sandy or grassy field, not only is the contamination of the apparatus main body 2 and the support member 3 avoided, but the wide bottom surface of the storage case 4 is in contact with the sandy or grassy field. Thus, the apparatus main body 2 and the support member 3 can be installed in a stable state via the housing case 4.

  Furthermore, although the measurement apparatus 1 and 1B which formed the insertion holes 31 and 33 in the lid | cover 4b of the storage case 4 were demonstrated, this invention is not limited to this, As the measurement apparatus 1C shown in FIG. The structure which attaches the rubber leg 4c which formed the insertion hole 31 corresponded to the insertion hole in this invention to the bottom face in this case main body 4a is employable. In this measuring apparatus 1C, by installing the front end portions of the respective back side members 21 of the four support members 3 in the fitting holes 31 of the respective rubber legs 4c, the same as the measuring apparatus 1 described above, As a result of the apparatus main body 2 installed via the support member 3 being integrated with the case main body 4a (rubber leg 4c) of the storage case 4, a situation where the apparatus main body 2 falls from the storage case 4 is avoided.

  Moreover, although the measurement apparatus 1 having four support members 3 and the measurement apparatus 1A having four support members 3A have been described as examples, the number of support members in the present invention is not limited to four, and two. A configuration in which the apparatus main body is supported by the arbitrary number of support members described above can be employed. In this case, as an example, the configuration in which the number of support members is two is long in the width direction of the apparatus main body 2 (the width direction of the display unit 11a disposed on the front panel 11: for example, the left-right direction shown in FIG. 3). One support member is disposed on the lower side of the front panel 11 (on the side panel 13a side in the measurement apparatus 1), and for example, the support member 3 in the measurement apparatus 1 or the support member 3A in the measurement apparatus 1A is attached to the apparatus main body. The structure arrange | positioned in the width direction center part of 2 upper side is mentioned. In addition, as an example of the configuration having three support members, one support member 3 is arranged in the center in the width direction on the upper side of the apparatus main body 2 instead of the two upper support members 3 in the measurement apparatus 1 described above. And a configuration in which one support member 3 is disposed in the center of the lower side of the apparatus main body 2 in place of the two lower support members 3 in the measurement apparatus 1 described above. Even in these configurations, the same effects as those of the measurement apparatuses 1 and 1A described above can be obtained.

Moreover, although the example which comprised the screw amount of the back side member 21 with respect to the back panel 12 in all the four support members 3 and the screw amount of the front side member 22 with respect to the front panel 11 was demonstrated, each support member 3 was demonstrated. The configuration in which the screwing amount of the front side member 22 with respect to the front panel 11 cannot be adjusted in any or all of them (a configuration in which the front side member 22 is formed integrally with the apparatus main body 2), In any or all of these, a configuration in which the screwing amount of the back side member 21 with respect to the back panel 12 cannot be adjusted (a configuration in which the back side member 21 is formed integrally with the apparatus main body 2) may be employed. In this case, with respect to the support member 3 in contact with the installation surface Z in the second installation posture in the present invention, the amount of screwing of the back side member 21 with respect to the back panel 12 and the front panel are the same as in the measurement devices 1 and 1A. It is preferable that both the screwing amounts of the front side member 22 with respect to 11 can be adjusted.

  Furthermore, by adjusting the screwing amount with respect to the apparatus main body 2, the protruding amount of the rear side members 21, 21a from the rear panel 12 and the protruding amount of the front side members 22, 22a from the front panel 11 can be adjusted steplessly ( Although the description has been given of the measuring devices 1 and 1A in which the rear side members 21 and 21a and the front side members 22 and 22a can be moved steplessly along the contact and separation direction with respect to the front panel 11, the present invention is not limited to this. Specifically, as an example, instead of the back side members 21 and 21a and the front side members 22 and 22a, the protruding amount of the back side member from the back panel 12 and the protruding amount of the front side member from the front panel 11 are described. The structure which attaches a back side member and a front side member to the apparatus main body 2 via the expansion-contraction mechanism (not shown) which can adjust stepwise can be employ | adopted.

It is an external appearance perspective view of the measuring apparatus 1 (the apparatus main body 2, the supporting member 3, and the storage case 4). 2 is an external perspective view of a device main body 2 and a support member 3 in the measuring device 1. FIG. 3 is a rear view of the apparatus main body 2. FIG. The front surface of the four support members 3 is supported by supporting the device main body 2 in a state where the screwing amount of each of the back side members 21 with respect to the device main body 2 is maximized (the state where each of the back side members 21 is closest to the front panel 11). It is a side view of the measuring apparatus 1 of the state (1st installation attitude | position) which made the panel 11 right upward. The screwing amount with respect to the two apparatus main bodies 2 on the side panel 13a side among the back side members 21 in the four support members 3 is maximized (the back side members 21 in the two lower support members 3 are changed to the front panel 11). And the apparatus main body 2 is supported in a state where the screwing amount with respect to the remaining two apparatus main bodies 2 is reduced (the back side member 21 of the upper two support members 3 is separated from the front panel 11). It is a side view of the measuring apparatus 1 of the state (1st installation attitude | position) which turned the front panel 11 diagonally upward by this.
