Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a danger of damage of a device by securing in a drawn state approached at an end to a floor in a vertically slidable state and in a retracted state to the bottom of a unit. CONSTITUTION:When a unit 2 is drawn so as to perform a maintenance from a normal using state in which the unit 2 is contained in a console 1, a locking bolt 4b of a stopper 4 is, when the unit 2 is drawn to a position starting to externally discharge the stopper 4, loosened. Then, a bar 4a is deviated down, the bolt 4b is engaged within a tap hole 3C of a lower side, the bar 4a is fixed, and the unit 2 is fully drawn forward. In this case, the end of the bar 4a of the stopper 4 is approached to a floor, and when the console 1 tends to ride forward, the bar 4a is made to about against the floor to be supported, thereby prevent it from falling down.

[Detailed description of the invention]

[Purpose of the invention]

0001

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a console used in a control device or the like.

0002

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a console has been used in which a unit stored in a storage space at the bottom of the console can be pulled out forward by a slide rail.

[0003] Consoles may or may not be fixed to the floor with anchor bolts during installation, and when a heavy unit is pulled forward with an unfixed console, the center of gravity of the console moves forward, making it difficult to lean forward. They could fall over, damaging equipment and posing a safety issue.

0004

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] An object of the present invention is to provide a stopper for a console that does not fall over when the unit is pulled out even when the console is not fixed to the floor, thereby eliminating damage to equipment and danger. shall be.

[Configuration of the invention]

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The console stopper of the present invention is provided at a portion near the front end of the side surface of a drawable unit of the console, and is slidable in the vertical direction and is in a drawn-out state with its tip close to the floor surface. It is configured so that it can be fixed in both the retracted state where it is retracted to the bottom of the unit.

[0007]

[Operation] When the unit is stored in the console, the console stopper of the present invention is fixed in the retracted state, and when the unit is pulled out, the unit is pulled out to the position where the stopper begins to protrude outside the console. Lower the stopper to fix it, then pull out the unit all the way to the front. In this state, the stopper is close to the floor and can support the console, thereby preventing the console from tipping forward.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be explained in detail below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIGS. 1(a), (b), (c), and (d) show a console stopper according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 (a
), the unit 2 is stored in the storage space at the bottom of the console 1, and the slide rails 3 provided on both sides of the unit 2 are stored in the storage space at the bottom of the console 1.
This allows the unit 2 to be pulled out forward.

Console stoppers 4 are provided on both sides of the unit 2 near the front end. The console stopper 4, as shown in FIGS. 1(b) and 1(c),
A bar 4a is held so as to be slidable in the vertical direction using mounting brackets 4c fixed with machine screws 4e at two locations above and below near the front end of the left and right side plates 2a of the unit 2. The inserted locking bolt 4b,
Tapped hole 2b provided in side plate 2a by collar 4d
, 2c and tightening the locking bolt 4b, the bar 4a is fixed in position. Tap hole 2b
is for fixing the bar 4a in a retracted state, and the tap hole 2c is for fixing the bar 4a in a lowered state with its tip close to the floor surface, and the tapped holes 2c are for fixing the bar 4a in a retracted state. It is provided at a position determined from the dimensions of 2.

[0011] The console stopper of the embodiment of the present invention configured as described above is such that when the unit 2 is pulled out for maintenance or the like from the normal usage state in which the unit 2 is stored in the console 1, the stopper 4 begins to come out, loosen the locking bolt 4b of the stopper 4, shift the bar 4a downward, screw the locking bolt 4b into the lower tapped hole 2c, and then tighten the bar 4a. 1 (b) and (c), and then pull out the unit 2 all the way to the front. In this state, the tip of the bar 4a of the stopper 4 is close to the floor, and when the console 1 tries to lean forward, the bar 4a contacts and supports the floor, preventing the console 1 from falling forward. Ru.

When storing the unit 2, first pull the unit 2 into the console 1 to some extent, loosen the locking bolt 4b, shift the bar 4a upward, and insert the locking bolt 4b into the upper tapped hole 2b. Screw it into bar 4
A is fixed to the state shown in FIG. 1(d), and then the unit 2 is pushed into the console 1 and stored.

As described above, according to the console stopper of the embodiment of the present invention, when the unit 2 is pulled out, a part of the weight of the unit 2 can be easily transferred to the floor by the bar 4a by simply manually operating the locking bolt 4b. By placing the burden directly on the console 1, it is possible to prevent the console 1 from leaning forward or falling.

The bar 4a of the stopper 4 may be in the shape of a round bar, a square bar, a plate material, or the like. Further, a roller or the like may be attached to the tip of the bar 4a.

[0015]

[Effects of the Invention] As described in detail above, according to the present invention, the unit is installed at the front end of the side surface of the unit, which is stored in the lower part of the console and can be pulled out forward by the slide rail, and is slidable in the vertical direction. In addition, by realizing a console stopper that can be fixed in both the pulled out state with the tip close to the floor and the retracted state with the tip pulled in to the bottom of the unit, consoles equipped with this can be used to remove the unit for maintenance etc. When pulling out the console, by simply pulling out the stopper and fixing it in place, the stopper allows part of the weight of the unit to be directly placed on the floor, preventing the console from tipping forward or falling over.
