Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a portable case, and more particularly to a case for storing and carrying content devices such as a video tape recorder deck and an audio tape recorder deck.

2. Description of the Related Art It is well known that carrying cases are used to carry devices such as video tape recorder decks and audio tape recorder decks when they are used outdoors. A conventional carrying case of this kind, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, includes a case body 1 with an open upper end so that a device 10 (see FIG. 6) can be stored therein, and a case body 1 with a case body 1 on the back side. The main body was composed of a cover 2 which was detachably and rotatably attached by a snap button 4.

The case body 1 is formed into a box shape from a flexible sheet-like member such as cloth, vinyl, leather, etc., and its upper end stores the contents equipment 10, and the equipment 10 is stored in the case body 1. In this state, the opening 1a is used for operation from the outside. In addition, on the upper part of the front wall of the case body 1, the above-mentioned contents equipment 1
Observation window 1 for observing the operating state of 0 from the outside
b is drilled. A male button (see FIG. 3) of the snap button 4 for detachably attaching the cover 2 to the case body 1 is fixed to the center of the rear wall of the case body 1 near the upper end. Further, a stopper 3 for fixing the tip of the cover 2 to the case body 1 is fixed to the center of the front wall of the case body 1 near the lower end. This stopper 3 is formed of a support shaft 3a and a locking member 3b rotatably attached to the tip of the support shaft 3a. The size is such that it can fit into the through hole 5a formed in the through hole member 5, and when it is rotated 90 degrees while passing through the through hole 5a (see Fig. 2), the through hole It abuts against the opening edge of 5a and is prevented from coming off.

On the other hand, the cover 2, like the case body 1, is formed in a rectangular shape from a flexible sheet-like member such as cloth, vinyl, or leather, and has a central part near its base end (upper end in the figure). The female button of the snap button 4 (see FIG. 3) is fixed thereto. In addition, in the center of the cover 2 near the tip (lower end in the figure), there is a horizontally long rectangular through hole 5a.
A locked through-hole member 5 having a locking hole member 5 is fixed so as to pass through the cover 2.

In the conventional portable case configured as described above, in order to store the contents device 10 in the case body 1 and close the opening 1a and the window 1b, the cover 2 is opened from the state shown in FIG. Rotate the cover 2 180 degrees around the snap button 4, spread the cover 2 along the top and front surface of the case body, and then insert the stopper 3 into the through hole 5a of the through hole member 5 to be locked. What is necessary is to insert the locking member 3b and rotate the locking member 3b by 90 degrees. If you do this,
The opening 1a and the window 1b are covered by the cover 2 to protect the contents device 10, and the tip of the cover 2 is attached to the case body 1 by the stopper 3 and the through-hole member 5 for locking. The cover 2 is fixedly attached, and the cover 2 is prevented from falling off.

By the way, in the above conventional carrying case, the opening 1a and the window 1b are closed in this way, but when the opening 1a and the window 1b are open, the cover 2 closes the first As shown in the figure, it rotates around the snap button 4 and stops hanging down due to its own weight. For this reason, the tip of the cover 2 protrudes from the lower end surface of the case body 1, which is a hindrance when holding the case, and when the case is placed on a flat surface, the cover 2 sag and becomes unsightly. It was hot. To solve this problem, you can remove the snap button 4, remove the cover 2 from the case body 1, and store it somewhere. The drawback was that a special location had to be set up.

In view of the above-mentioned points, the purpose of the present invention is to arrange the snap button and the stopper at positions that bisect the outer circumference of the case body, and to make the cover long enough to cover at least half of the outer circumference of the case body. To provide a portable case which is formed so that the cover is fixed to the case body by the same fasteners whether the cover is opened or closed.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on an illustrated embodiment.

FIG. 2 shows a carrying case showing one embodiment of the present invention. In this carrying case,
Similar to the conventional case shown in FIG. 1 above, the male button 14a of the snap button 14 (see FIG. 3)
and a stopper 13 are respectively fixed to the center of the back wall of the case body 11 near the top end and the center of the front wall near the bottom end. The position is selected so that the outer periphery passing through the upper surface and the lower surface is divided into two equal parts. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the male button 14a and the stopper 13 are positioned 180 degrees symmetrically with respect to the center of the case body 11.
Each is fixed. Moreover, the cover 12 is
It is formed in a length sufficient to cover at least half of the outer circumference of the case body 11, and has a female button 14b of the snap button 14 at its base end, and a through-hole member 15 for being locked at its distal end. Each is fixed.

In addition, other parts not specifically mentioned are formed in the same way as the corresponding parts of the conventional carrying case shown in Fig. 1 above, so the corresponding parts are designated by the number 10 added. , and the detailed explanation will be omitted.

In the portable case of the present invention configured as described above, in order to store the contents device 10 in the case body 11 and close the opening 11a and the window 11b,
The cover 12 is attached to the case body 11 by fitting the female button 14b of the cover 12 into the male button 14a of the case body 11, and then the cover 1 is attached to the case body 11.
2 may be extended along the upper surface and front surface of the case body 11, and the through-hole member 15 may be engaged with the stopper 13. In this way, the top surface and the front upper part of the case body 11 are covered by the cover 12, the opening 11a and the window 11b are hidden, and the content device 10 is covered.
is protected from external shocks, etc.

Also, by opening the opening 11a and the window 11b,
To make the content device 10 operable from the outside (see FIG. 3), remove the through-hole member 15 from the stopper 13 from the cover 12 shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the cover 12 is rotated 180 degrees as shown in FIGS.
The through-hole member 15 is engaged with the stopper 13 by extending along the lower surface and the lower front surface. Then, since the male button 14a and the stopper 13 are fixed at positions dividing the outer circumference of the case body 11 into two, the cover 12 is tightly spread along the wall surface of the case body 11, and the cover 12 is the case body 1
It is integrated with the case body 11 without hanging apart from the case body 11. Therefore, the cover 12 does not get in the way when the content device 10 is operated.

As described above, according to the present invention, the cover is fixed to the case body by the same fastener regardless of whether the cover is open or closed, so there is no need to remove the cover from the case body. The cover can be stored, and the cover does not get in the way when the cover is opened to operate the contents equipment. Therefore, it is possible to solve the conventional problems mentioned in the specification, and to provide a portable case that is aesthetically pleasing and highly functional.
