In the assembled state, the portion of the substrate 27 on which the light emitting element 25 is mounted is on the back side of the push button storage portion 11. It becomes a hidden state.
By applying a reflective agent to the back side of the push button storage portion 11 or attaching a reflector and a reflective sticker, the light emission of the light emitting display unit 30 can be increased and the visibility can be further improved. ..

<Mounting surface>
As shown in FIG. 1, the mounting surface 15 is provided with a rectangular transmitter mounting hole 44, and next to the rectangular transmitter mounting hole 44, wiring on the back side of the mounting surface 15 (not shown) is pulled out to the front side of the mounting surface 15. A wiring take-out hole 45 is provided for this purpose. The wiring take-out hole 45 is provided at a position corresponding to the wiring take-in hole 34 of the indicator light unit 7.
Further, screw insertion holes 47 for inserting the mounting screws 17 for mounting the indicator lamp integrated transmitter 1 are provided on both sides of the transmitter mounting holes 44 on the mounting surface 15.

An assembly method of the indicator lamp integrated transmitter 1 configured as described above and a method of mounting the transmitter 1 on the mounting surface 15 will be described.
From the wiring on the back side of the mounting surface 15, the necessary wiring is pulled out from the wiring take-out hole 45 provided on the mounting surface 15.
Wiring is taken into the board accommodating part 29 side from the wiring taking-in hole 34 of the indicator light part 7, and is connected to the board 27. Then, the board 27 is placed on the board mounting portion 37, and the board 27 is fixed by the board mounting screws 35.
With the transmitter cover 5 removed, the indicator light unit 7 to which the board 27 is fixed is arranged on the back side of the transmitter main unit 3, and the mounting screw 17 is inserted into the screw insertion hole 19 of the transmitter main unit 3 and the indicator light. It is inserted into the tubular portion 33 of the portion 7 and the insertion hole 41 of the substrate 27, further inserted into the screw insertion hole 47 of the mounting surface 15, penetrated through the back side of the mounting surface 15, and from the back side of the mounting surface 15. Fix with screws with nut 49.
After that, the transmitter cover 5 is attached. The transmitter cover 5 is fixed to the push button storage portion 11 with a screw (not shown).

In the mounted state, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the light emitting element 25 is arranged in a ring shape inside the light emitting display unit 30, and the light of the light emitting element 25 is transmitted through the light emitting display unit 30 to shine. Since the light transmitted from the light emitting display unit 30 illuminates the periphery of the light emitting display unit 30, the outer peripheral portion of the transmitter main body 3 is illuminated in front view, and the outer peripheral portion of the transmitter main body 3 shines like a ring. Looks like it is.
Further, when the light emitting display unit 30 is viewed from an angle along the mounting surface 15, the side peripheral surface of the lit light emitting display unit 30 can be seen, so that the light emitting display unit 30 has sufficient visibility.

As described above, in the indicator light integrated transmitter 1 of the present embodiment, the indicator light unit 7 is formed to have the same diameter as the transmitter cover 5, so that the indicator light unit 7 is the transmitter cover in the assembled state. It does not overhang more than 5 and is compact as a whole.

In the above description, the light emitting elements 25 are arranged on the substrate 27 at equal intervals, but in the present invention, the arrangement of the light emitting elements 25 on the substrate 27 is not limited to this.
For example, it may be arranged so that the number of both side portions is large (the distance between the light emitting elements 25 on both side portions is narrowed).

By arranging the light emitting elements 25 so that the number of both side portions is large, both side portions of the light emitting display unit 30 shine brighter than the upper and lower parts. Even when viewed, the light emitting display unit 30 can be reliably visually recognized.

As another method for making both sides of the light emitting display unit 30 shine brighter than the upper and lower parts, for example, the brightness of the light emitting elements 25 arranged on both side parts may be set higher than that of the upper and lower parts. Alternatively, both the spacing and the brightness of the light emitting elements 25 described above may be adjusted.
Further, the light emitting elements 25 may not be arranged on the upper and lower portions so that the upper and lower portions of the light emitting display unit 30 are relatively dark.
In the first embodiment, the case where the indicator light unit 7 and the transmitter unit (transmitter main body unit 3 and transmitter cover 5) are integrally attached has been described, but when the indicator light unit 7 is unnecessary. It is also possible to mount only the transmitter unit on the mounting surface 15.

[Embodiment 2]
The present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 9. In FIGS. 5 to 9, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals.
The difference between the indicator light integrated transmitter 51 according to the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the transmitter cover 53 is formed in a disk shape as shown in FIG. 8, and the back surface of the transmitter cover 53 is formed. A point where a cylindrical frame-shaped engaging portion 55 that engages with the push button storage portion 11 of the transmitter main body 3 is formed at a portion slightly inside the outermost periphery on the side, and the transmitter cover 53 is transparent. It is a point formed of a light member. The inner diameter of the cylindrical engaging portion 55 is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the push button storage portion 11, and the outer diameter of the transmitter cover 53 is larger than the outer diameter of the push button storage portion 11.

By providing the engaging portion 55, the peripheral edge portion of the transmitter cover 53 projects outward from the push button storage portion 11 in the assembled state (see FIG. 7).
Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the portion of the substrate 27 on which the light emitting element 25 is mounted in a ring shape is also located on the outer peripheral side of the push button storage portion 11.
Therefore, in the assembled state, as shown in FIG. 7, the light of the light emitting element 25 directly reaches the transmitter cover 53 which is blocked by the push button storage unit 11.
As a result, the light of the light emitting element 25 transmits light through the light emitting display unit 30 and also transmits the outside of the engaging portion 55 of the transmitter cover 53, so that the visibility is further improved.

It should be noted that the transmitter cover 53 only needs to have at least the radial outer side of the engaging portion 55 having translucency, and does not necessarily have to have translucency as a whole.

Further, by providing the engaging portion 55, it is not necessary to form the outermost peripheral portion of the transmitter cover 53 in a frame shape, so that the area of the light emitting display portion 30 is widened, which improves the visibility. There is.

In the indicator 51 integrated transmitter 51 of the second embodiment, the transmitter cover 53 and the light emitting display unit 30 have the same diameter as in the first embodiment, so that the size can be reduced and the transmitter cover can be realized. Since the 53 also transmits the light of the light emitting element 25, the visibility is also improved.

In the above description, the indicator lamp integrated transmitters 1 and 51 in which the indicator lamp and the transmitter are integrated have been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the indicator lamp unit 7 described above is not limited thereto. Can also be configured as a single indicator light. Such an indicator lamp is provided on the back side of the transmitter main body, and the side surface of the cylinder accommodating the light emitting element comprises a light emitting display unit that allows the light of the light emitting element to pass through, and the light emitting display unit is said to transmit the light. It is characterized by having the same diameter as the main body of the machine.
