2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, some vehicles such as passenger cars are equipped with a display device as a vehicle interior information terminal for improving habitability and operability. The display device can display various information such as the current position and congestion information and a television screen. Therefore,
The display body is preferably embedded on the console box or dashboard on the front of the driver's seat or in the dashboard so as to improve the visibility of the driver.

However, various devices such as an audio device such as a radio and a stereo device and a ventilator grill of an air conditioner are generally disposed in these parts, so that the display device is configured by a CRT. It was difficult to secure space.

Therefore, as a conventional vehicle-mounted display device, there is provided a device in which a slide structure part that can be pulled out to the driver's seat side is provided in the storage part in the console box, and a liquid crystal display is connected to this slide structure part. Proposed.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, in these conventional vehicle-mounted display devices 1, a liquid crystal display 3 housed in a case 2 is connected to a slide structure 5 via a pair of hinges 4. .. The hinge 4 is connected to a bearing portion of a mounting portion (not shown) of the liquid crystal display 3 so that the liquid crystal display 3 can be rotated about the connecting portion as a fulcrum. These on-vehicle display devices 1 are arranged in the middle of both the driver seat and the passenger seat so that they can be operated, and a television screen appears in the driver's view when the vehicle is running.
