Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an in-vehicle radio carrying case suitable for carrying an in-vehicle radio as a portable device.

In-vehicle radios are generally installed in a holding frame made of sheet metal called a mount, and because they do not have a power source, they cannot be carried as they are. Therefore, there are various portable cases on the market that allow you to carry your in-vehicle radio, but the conventional ones are
It is necessary to make some changes to the in-vehicle radio, such as changing the external connector of the in-vehicle radio, or removing the operation panel and putting only the radio in the case. In addition, the battery power can be turned on inside the carrying case, but the battery is fixed with metal fittings or screws, so tools such as a screwdriver must be used to install and remove it. This is especially inconvenient for portable cases that are often used outdoors.

This idea was created in view of the above-mentioned conventional circumstances, and the purpose was to create a case for carrying an in-vehicle radio that would allow the in-vehicle radio to be stored and used as is, and also allow for easy battery replacement. It is about providing.

Hereinafter, this invention will be described in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, this portable case has a case body 1 and a lid body 2 that are removably combined with each other via fastening means such as screws.
An in-vehicle radio 3 and a battery 4 are housed inside the vehicle.

The case body 1 has a box shape with one side (the back in this example) open, and inside thereof,
Radio device storage section 5 that stores and holds the above-mentioned in-vehicle radio device 3
and a battery storage section 6 that stores the battery 4.
is provided. The radio device storage section 5 includes a pair of left and right holding plates 7, 7 that stand upright to sandwich both sides of the in-vehicle radio device 3, and a window 10 into which the operation panel 9 of the in-vehicle radio device 3 is fitted. It is surrounded by a decorative board 11 having. In this case, each retaining plate 7, 7
are erected parallel to the side plate of the case body 1 at a predetermined interval, and each of its upper edges is formed in an L-shape to which the in-vehicle radio 3 is screwed. A receiving groove 12, 12 is provided, respectively. Incidentally, female screw holes 13, 13 are provided on both sides of the in-vehicle radio device 3 for attachment to an in-vehicle mount (not shown), and the receiving grooves 12, 12 are formed in the female screw holes 13, 1.
It is arranged to match 3. Further, in connection with this, through holes 14, 14 are bored in both side plates of the case body 1 for inserting a screwdriver from the outside toward the receiving grooves 12, 12. The decorative plate 11 is removably attached to the front opening of the case body 1 via screws. In this case, since the antenna mounting connector 15 is attached to the front surface of the case body 1, the decorative plate 11 is provided with a circular hole 16 into which the connector 15 is fitted.

The battery storage section 6 is arranged at the rear of the case body 1, and the battery 4 is placed inside the storage section 6 by a stopper plate 8, a bottom plate 20 of the case body 1, and a bottom plate 20 of the case body 1, as shown in FIG. It is housed so as not to move, surrounded by guide plates 21, 21 arranged on the left and right.

In addition, a locking fitting 22 for locking a shoulder strap (not shown) is attached to the front part of the side plate of the case body 1, and a connector 23 for connecting an external power supply and a control panel 24 are installed to the rear part. For example, two fuses 25,
25, a battery charging switch 26, etc. are provided. Although an electrical wiring diagram is not shown, the control panel 24 has a first connector 27 connected to the battery 4 and a second connector 28 connected to the power socket 29 of the vehicle radio 3. The in-vehicle wireless device 3 can be selectively supplied with power from either the battery 4 or an external power source.

On the other hand, the lid body 2 includes a base cover 3 formed in a size that covers the radio device storage section 5 of the case body 1.
1, and a door 32 that is connected to the base cover 31 via a hinge 33 and that can be opened and closed over the battery storage section 6.
In this case, as shown in FIG.
On the back side, there is an elastic body 3 made of rubber or sponge that presses the battery 4 into the case body 1.
4 is attached, and in this invention, the door 32 is locked with a snap lock 35 provided on the bottom plate 20 of the case body 1.

In the above configuration, in order to use the in-vehicle radio device 3 as a portable device, the cover body 2 and the decorative plate 11 are removed from the case body 1 and the portable case is disassembled. hole 13,
The male screws 17, 17 are loosely screwed into 13 in advance. Then, insert the male screws 17, 17 into the receiving groove 1.
2 and 12, put the in-vehicle radio 3 into the radio storage part 5, insert a screwdriver through the through hole 14, and tighten the male screw 17. This results in
The in-vehicle radio 3 is firmly fixed between the holding plates 7, 7. Next, the decorative panel 11 is screwed to the front opening of the case body 1 so that the operation panel 9 of the in-vehicle radio device 3 is fitted into the window 10 of the decorative panel 11. Incidentally, the antenna connector 18 of the vehicle-mounted radio device 3 is connected to the antenna attachment connector 15 provided on the case body 1 at an appropriate place as shown in FIG. The battery 4 is placed in the battery storage part 6 and connected to the first connector 27, and the second connector 28 is connected to the power socket 29 of the vehicle radio 3.

Next, the lid body 2 is assembled to the open back of the case body 1, and the base cover 31 is attached to the case body 1.
At the same time, lock the door 32 with a snap lock 35.
It is locked by. At this time, the battery 4 is strongly pressed by the elastic body 34, so there is no risk of it rattling due to vibrations or impacts during carrying. In this way, the vehicle-mounted radio device 3 and the battery 4 can be housed in the portable case.

That is, according to this invention, as is clear from the description of the above embodiment, the in-vehicle radio 3 can be carried as is without changing the external connector of the in-vehicle radio 3 or making any modifications. It can be used by setting it in a case, making it extremely convenient to handle. Furthermore, since the battery 4 is pressed and fixed by an elastic body 34 attached to the door 32 which is locked with a snap lock 35, it can be attached and removed without using screws or metal fittings as in the conventional case. It also offers convenience.
