JPH0593169U - Signal type display device of television camera device - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] The CCU of a television camera device needs to reconnect the cable every time it moves, and this situation frequently occurs. However, the installation environment of the CCU is often dark and it is difficult to distinguish the signal name display. The purpose is to eliminate this defect and improve workability remarkably. [Arrangement] A light-emitting body (for example, an LED) is arranged near the connector on the rear panel of the CCU, and a character mask is arranged on the front surface thereof so that transparent characters can be obtained by the light-emitting body. Alternatively, the illuminants are arranged so that they can be viewed directly, and in the former case, they are identified by the luminescent characters, and in the latter case, they are identified by the luminescent color.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a signal name display device of a connector installed in a camera control unit (hereinafter referred to as CCU) of a television camera device.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

The CCU of a high-definition television camera device has G, B, R system outputs and Y, P _B , P _R system outputs, and the order of arrangement may be different. Therefore, in order to identify which method the output is and what the array is, conventionally, the characters displayed on the panel surface are read.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the conventional method has a drawback that it becomes unreadable when the CCU installation environment is dark. In addition, the television camera device is usually a mobile device, and there is a problem that it is necessary to reconnect every time the device is moved. The present invention aims to eliminate the above drawbacks.

[0004]

[Means and Actions for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention arranges the light-emitting body in the vicinity of each connector, or arranges them in a concentrated manner so that the connectors can be handled at a glance and identifies them by the color of their light emission. Alternatively, the letter pattern is removed from the front of the illuminator, or a transparent screen with letters printed is attached to identify the letters.

【Example】

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. Reference numeral 1 is a plurality of BNC connectors for video signals, 2 is a plurality of light emitting elements (LEDs) 3, a mask without characters, or a mask with characters printed on a transparent plate. FIG. 1 is a part of a sectional view of a CCU rear panel of a high-definition television camera device. By inserting the AC plug of the CCU having the rear panel arranged in this way into a commercial AC line, or a power switch. By turning on, LE D2 indicating G, B, R or Y, P _B , P _R , which is a normal combination, lights up and whether the connector is G, B, R or Y, P Whether _B or P _R can be easily identified. The order of G, B, and R is often the order of R, G, and B, but this identification is easy. If the CCU has the function of switching between G, B, R and Y, P _B , P _R , the circuit shall be connected so as to switch the light emitting unit in response to the switching operation. FIGS. 1 and 2 show a distributed display, but FIG. 3 shows another embodiment in which LEDs are centrally arranged as described in the means for solving the problem. It is also possible to achieve the object by making the LEDs directly visible without using the character mask 3 described in the first embodiment and identifying the LEDs by the emission color of the LEDs.

[0006]

[Effect of the device]

 According to the present invention, when a television camera device is moved and reconnected to a peripheral device, it is possible to perform identification and quick work more easily than reading a display character by engraving or printing. In addition, since there are many dark places on the back of the CCU, the characters can be easily identified even when it is difficult or impossible to identify them, which significantly improves the work efficiency of the user.
