Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial application field" This invention is attached to the back of a computer rack to cover cords, and also guides or separates the printer's continuous paper that moves up and down on the back for smooth feeding. This concerns the rear adapter.

``Problems that conventional technology and inventions cannot solve'' Traditionally, computer racks have generally had multiple shelves, with printer paper on the bottom shelf, the computer and keyboard on the middle shelf, and the printer on the top shelf. known to.

By the way, on the back of a rack on which such computer equipment is mounted, cords such as power cords for various devices and connection cables for connecting the computer and each device are exposed and intersected in a miscellaneous manner, giving rise to an unsightly appearance. Not only is this bad, but cords can easily get caught when people pass through this rear side.

In addition, since the continuous paper sent to the printer rises from below and the continuous paper printed on the printer descends on the back of the rack, the cords become an obstacle to the upward and downward movement of the continuous paper, making it difficult to feed smoothly. In addition, racks are often installed with their backs close to walls, etc., so when you pull out continuous paper from the lower paper holder and load it into the printer, you may have to check the cords on the back. There were problems such as the paper getting in the way and making it extremely difficult to set the paper.

``Means for solving the problem'' The first invention of the rear adapter for a computer rack has mounting hardware attached to the back of the rack at multiple locations around a flexible net of the desired shape, and the A flexible sliding sheet with a smooth surface whose horizontal width is larger than the width of the form from the top end to the bottom end is attached to the surface of the middle part in the direction.

The second invention, the rear adapter for computer racks, is made by attaching a part of the surface of a flexible net of the required shape with mounting hardware at multiple locations around the periphery, and the width from the top to the bottom is larger than the width of the form. The separator guide is composed of a cord cover to which a sliding sheet with a smooth surface is attached, and a separator guide formed into a groove-shaped cross section whose left and right widths are larger than the width of the cord cover, and which is provided with fittings at both ends. ing.

``Function'' In the first invention of the rear adapter for a computer rack, a net is placed over the entire cords that are wired in a complicated manner on the back of the computer rack so as to wrap them together, and the surrounding mounting tools are used to By attaching it to the back of the rack, the cords can be bundled together and stored neatly and compactly inside the net.In particular, since the net is bendable and deformable and the sliding sheet is flexible, the lower end can be rolled inward. By hooking the lower end to a bar installed between the left and right pillars on the back of the rack, the lower part is shaped like a bag, and the excess middle part of long cords can be rolled up and stored inside this bag-shaped part. This allows you to keep the area around your computer neat and tidy without having excess cords scattered on the floor.

Continuous paper that moves up and down on the back of the rack is easily caught on cords and nets at the spout holes on both sides and the perforations in the folds, but a flexible and smooth sliding sheet is attached to the surface of the net that wraps around the cords. Therefore, the continuous paper slides on this sheet without getting caught and is fed smoothly.

Furthermore, since the net is breathable, it ensures air circulation at the back of the computer rack and does not impede heat exhaustion inside the computer.

In the rear adapter for a computer rack of the second invention, the net of the cord cover is placed over all the cords that are wired in a complicated manner on the back of the computer rack so as to wrap them together, and By attaching it to the back of the rack, the cords can be bundled together and stored neatly and compactly in the net, and by placing the separator guide attached to the back of the rack on the front side of this cord cover, the back of the rack can be raised and lowered. Continuous paper before and after printing is separated into the inside and outside of the separator guide, and is reliably separated and raised and lowered without causing any discrepancies, and is fed smoothly. It slides on the sheet and is fed smoothly.

``Example'' Below, we will explain the embodiment of this invention shown in the drawings. Figures 1 and 4 show an example of a computer rack to which the rear adapter of this invention is applied, and it can be installed at almost the same height as a desk. An upper shelf 3 is installed above a certain main shelf 1 via supporting materials 2 such as pillars or support plates, and a plurality of lower shelves 5 and 6 are installed below the main shelf 1 via similar supporting materials 4. They are placed at intervals above and below.

On the main shelf 1 is a computer main body 7 and a display 8.
A keyboard 9 is also cut out in front of it.

A printer 10 is installed on the upper shelf 3, and continuous paper 12 before printing is set therein from a storage and feeding case 11 that has a plurality of storage chambers that can store continuous paper for printing such as various forms, which is installed on the lower shelf 5. After printing, the continuous paper 12' is automatically stored one after another in a storage case 13 installed on the lower shelf 6.

At the back of the rack, various cords 14 such as connection cables for the computer body 7 and printer 10 and power cords are exposed in an intersecting manner, and the back of the rack holds these cords and is compact. Continuous paper 12 for printing is arranged in order and sent to the printer 10 from the bottom to the top.
A rear adapter 15 or 16 is attached to smoothly guide the feeding of the continuous paper 12' which is discharged from above to below after printing.

The rear adapter 15 of the first invention shown in FIG.
In this method, a flexible net 17 formed into a desired shape such as a rectangle is used as a cord cover that holds the cords 14, and hook-shaped hook fittings, plate-shaped screw fittings, etc. are attached to appropriate places around the cord cover. A plurality of tools 18 are attached.

A flexible sliding sheet 19 made of soft plastic or the like and having a smooth surface is attached to the surface of the intermediate portion of the net 17 in the left-right direction from the upper end to the lower end.

Therefore, the net 17 of the rear adapter 15 is placed over the entirety of the cords 14 that are wired in a complicated manner on the back of the PC rack as described above so as to wrap them together, and the cables 14 are easily attached using the surrounding fittings 18. Back support material 2 or main shelf 1 and upper shelf 3
By attaching it to the rear end, etc., the cords can be bundled together and stored neatly and compactly in the net 17, and the continuous paper 12, 12' that goes up and down on the rear side can be easily attached to the sliding sheet in the center of the surface. 19 and can be smoothly fed.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, the lower end of the net 17 is rolled inward, and the lower end is attached to the bar 2' installed between the left and right supports (pillars) 2 on the back of the rack with a fixture 18. By being hooked, the lower part is shaped like a bag, and the middle part of the long cords 14 can be rolled up and stored in this bag-shaped part.

The second device is one in which a separator guide 20 for continuous paper is arranged on the front side of the rear adapter 15, and as shown in FIG. The both ends of the board 20a are fixed to the board 20a, and hook-like hook fittings or plate-like screw fastening fittings are attached to both ends of the board 20a for attachment to the rear surface of the rack. A tool 20b is provided.

Therefore, the separator guide 20 is placed on the rear adapter 15 that holds the cords 14 as described above.
By attaching the substrate 20a and attaching the substrate 20a to the rack support member 2 via the fixtures 20b at both ends, the continuous paper 12 before printing is passed inside this separator guide 20, and the printing is not carried out on the outside. By passing the subsequent continuous paper 12', both continuous papers 12, 12' can be separated from each other, reliably separated and smoothly fed without causing any discrepancies.

Note that FIGS. 5 and 6 show another form of the rear adapter 15, in which plate-shaped screws for attaching to the rear surface of the rack are attached to both ends 21a of the cord cover 21, which is formed in a groove-shaped cross section. A fitting 21b such as a stopper or a hook-like hook is provided on the surface of the cord cover 21, and a separator guide 22 formed in a groove shape with a horizontal width larger than the width of the form is attached to the cord cover 21. It is fixed at both end portions 22a.

Therefore, the cord cover 21 covers the entirety of the cords 14 that are wired in a complicated manner on the back of the PC rack as described above,
By attaching it to the support member 2 on the back of the rack or the rear ends of the main shelf 1 and upper shelf 3 using the fixtures 21b on both ends 21a, the cords can be bundled together and stored neatly and compactly inside the cord cover 21. Continuous paper 12 rising toward the printer 10 along the surface of the cord cover 21 passes inside the separator guide 22, and continuous paper 12 descending from the printer 10 passes outside the separator guide 22. By separating them from each other in this way, they can be reliably separated and moved up and down without causing any conflict with each other, allowing for smooth feeding.

``Effects of the invention'' As described above, according to this invention, various cords such as connection cables for the computer and printer, power cords, etc., which are exposed in a miscellaneous manner at the back of the rack, can be integrated into one with a good appearance. It can be held compactly and organized, and it also allows smooth feeding of continuous paper that is sent from the bottom to the printer above, and continuous paper that is ejected from the top to the bottom after printing, without being obstructed by cords. This makes it possible to guide and sort the items and send them smoothly without any discrepancies.

In particular, since the net is highly bendable and deformable, and the sliding sheet is also flexible, its lower end can be rolled inward and the lower end can be hung on a bar, etc. installed between the left and right pillars on the back of the rack, using a mounting tool. The bottom part can be easily made into a bag, and the excess middle part of long cords can be rolled up and stored inside this bag-shaped part, and the area around the computer can be kept neatly without the excess cords being scattered on the floor. Can be organized.

In addition, continuous paper that moves up and down on the back of the rack tends to get caught in cords and nets at the perforations on both sides and the folds, but a flexible and smooth sliding sheet is attached to the surface of the net that wraps the cords. Therefore, the continuous paper can be smoothly fed by sliding on the sheet without getting caught or coming into close contact with the sheet.

Furthermore, since the net is breathable, it ensures air circulation at the back of the computer rack and does not impede heat exhaustion inside the computer.
