Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a structure in which a cover made of acrylic resin or the like is attached to an aluminum extruded material as a front operation panel of electronic equipment.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 When an opening is provided in a metal (mainly aluminum) extruded panel and a transparent cover such as an acrylic resin is attached, a method of adhering a cover 14 from the back side to the opening 13 of the panel 12 as shown in FIG. 3 is adopted. Has been.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the method described above, the opening can be provided only within a predetermined range of the flat portion of the panel. That is, the opening cannot be formed to extend to the edge of the flat portion, which causes a design restriction.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 An extruded metal panel in which an opening is provided in a U shape, and ribs that are continuous from bent edges at both ends of the opening are integrally formed; a bracket to which a cover that covers the opening is fixed; And a positioning hole formed on the panel, and a protrusion and a second opening formed on the bracket. The projection is fitted in the hole, and the bent leg is inserted and bent in the first and second through holes to attach the cover to the panel.

[0005]

[Action]

 The protrusion of the bracket to which the transparent cover is fixed is fitted into the positioning hole of the panel, and the bent leg of the accessory is inserted and bent into the first through hole of the panel and the second through hole of the bracket. This ensures that the transparent cover is attached to the panel.

【Example】

 FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an assembled sectional view thereof. In the figure, reference numeral 1 is an aluminum extrusion-molded metal panel having a U-shaped opening 2 and ribs 3 continuous from the bent edges 1a, 1a of both ends of the opening 2. The panel 1 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 4, 4, ... And positioning holes 5, 5. Reference numeral 6 is a cover made of a resin such as acrylic having a U-shaped protruding portion 6a, and 7 is a bracket having a plurality of second through holes 8, 8 ... And protrusions 9, 9 ... It A window hole 7a and a rib 7b are formed in the center of the bracket 7. Reference numeral 10 is an ornament in which a plurality of T-shaped bent legs 11, 11, ... Are integrally formed. In addition, 12 is a double-sided adhesive tape.

To assemble this, the cover 6 is fixed to the bracket 7 with a double-sided adhesive tape, an adhesive or the like. In that case, by fitting the end surface 6a of the cover 6 to the rib 7b of the bracket 7, the cover 6 is positioned and securely fixed to the bracket 7. Next, the double-sided adhesive tape 12 is attached to the surface of the rib 3 of the panel 1, the lower portion of the bracket 7 with the cover is inserted into the opening 3 from the rear surface of the panel 1, and the projections 9, 9 ... 5 is fitted and pressed, the U-shaped protruding portion 6a of the cover 6 is fitted into the U-shaped opening 2 of the panel 1. At this time, the first through holes 4, 4, ... Of the panel 1 and the second through holes 8, 8, ... Of the bracket 7 are designed to coincide with each other. Finally, after inserting the bent leg 11 of the accessory 10 into the first and second through holes 4, 8 ..., T-shaped bent legs 11, 11 ... are twisted by about 60 ° to 90 °. As a result, the cover 6 is sandwiched between the panel 1 and the bracket 7 in a sandwich shape and securely attached.

[0008]

[Effect of device]

 With the configuration of the present proposal, when an acrylic cover or the like is fixed to an extruded panel made of aluminum or the like, it is possible to extend the window hole to the edge of the panel and provide an opening portion. It is useful because it has more freedom.
