As described above, in the above-mentioned conventional sliding mechanism of the oven toaster, the position of the fulcrum of the arm 5 (the mounting position of the one end 10 to the front door 1) and the length of the arm 5 are determined. However, there is a problem that the movement amount of the grill 14 is limited, and it is difficult to take out the object to be heated (for example, bread or pizza) on the grill 14 when the front door 1 is opened. Further, in order to increase the movement amount of the grill 14, it is necessary to lengthen the arm 5 or raise the fulcrum position of the arm 5.
This causes a problem that the moving range of the robot becomes wider and contacts with surrounding parts.

Further, in the sliding mechanism shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, since the grill 14 cannot be removed from the case main body 30, there is a problem that a small amount of pullout easily causes burns when the object to be heated is taken out. .

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an electronic device capable of sufficiently pulling out a mounting plate (a grill) forward without enlarging the movement range of the arm. To do.

[0012]

In order to solve the above problems, in the electronic apparatus of the present invention, a mounting plate on which an object is mounted can slide in the front-back direction inside a case body having a front door. And a slide mechanism for sliding the mounting plate in the front-rear direction in conjunction with the opening / closing operation of the front door, wherein the sliding mechanism is such that one end of the first arm is attached to the front door. The other end of the first arm is rotatably connected, and the other end of the first arm is rotatably connected to the middle of the second arm whose one end is rotatably connected to the case body. It is rotatably connected to the mounting plate.

[0013]

According to the above construction, when the front door is rotated around the rotary shaft and opened, one end of the first arm rotates together with the front door around the rotary shaft. Since the other end of the first arm is connected to the middle of the second arm, the one end of the second arm is connected to the case body as the one end of the first arm rotates. Rotate as. At this time, if the other end of the first arm is connected to the central portion of the second arm, the amount of movement of the other end due to the rotation of the second arm is the same as that of the other end due to the rotation of the first arm. Double the amount. In other words, the other end of the first arm moves in the horizontal direction twice as much as when the other end is connected to the mounting plate. Since the other end of the second arm is connected to the mounting plate, the mounting plate also moves twice the amount of movement of the other end of the first arm and is pulled out forward.
