Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a nameplate mounting device for removably mounting a nameplate for displaying storage devices on a box such as a rack for electronic equipment.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As shown in FIG. 4, a conventional nameplate is attached to a box to display the storage devices, and a nameplate 24 is attached to the upper edge 22 and the lower edge 23 of the window hole 21 formed in the frame material of the box. An upper groove 25 and a lower groove 26 for fitting the upper end and the lower end are formed. Of these, the upper groove 25 is formed deeply, and the name plate 24 is tilted to push the upper end of the name plate 24 onto the upper groove 25 and make the name plate 24 vertical. It is known that the lower end is fitted into the lower groove 26.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in this conventional one, since the nameplate 24 is inclined and the upper end of the nameplate 24 is pushed onto the upper groove 25, the groove width of the upper groove 25 needs to be slightly wider than the thickness of the nameplate 24. There is a problem that there is rattling after installation due to the presence of this. In addition, when removing the nameplate, it is necessary to push up the plate-like nameplate having no locking portion and to remove the lower end of the nameplate 24 from the lower groove 26, which is troublesome to remove.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and a groove is formed on the upper surface of the lower edge of a window hole provided in a frame member so that the lower end of the nameplate is fitted to the inner surface of the upper edge of the nameplate. It is characterized in that a receiving surface portion for locking the front surface of the upper end is formed, and a pressing member for pushing the upper rear surface of the nameplate forward is provided in the window hole.

[0005]

[Action]

 The nameplate mounting device configured in this way is installed on the horizontal frame at the upper front of the rack for electronic equipment and used by mounting the nameplate.The lower end of the nameplate is provided on the upper surface of the lower edge of the window hole. It is fitted in the groove and is attached by pressing the upper end to the receiving surface provided on the inner surface of the upper edge of the window hole by the pressing member.

[0006]

【Example】

 Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. Reference numeral 1 denotes a frame material which is a horizontal frame provided on the upper front surface of the rack for electronic equipment, and a window hole 2 for attaching a nameplate is provided on the front surface of the frame material 1. Reference numeral 3 is a groove portion into which the lower end of the name plate 24 formed on the upper surface of the lower edge portion of the window hole 2 is fitted. Reference numeral 4 denotes a receiving surface portion formed on the inner surface of the upper edge portion of the window hole 2 for engaging the upper end front surface of the name plate 24, and the lower end of the receiving surface portion 4 is a low step for fitting the upper end of the name plate 24. The part 5 is formed.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a pressing member for pressing the upper portion of the name plate 24 provided in the window 2 against the receiving surface portion 4. In this embodiment, the pressing member 6 is a hollow semicircular elastic member made of a synthetic rubber material. The material 6a is attached to the reinforcing plate portion 7 formed inside the frame material 1. The pressing member 6 is not limited to this, and may be a plate spring or a coil spring as long as it can press the upper portion of the name plate 24 accurately against the receiving surface portion 4.

With the above-mentioned structure, the nameplate 24 for displaying the devices stored in the electronic equipment rack can be attached to the frame member 1 so that the nameplate 24 is on the front side as shown in FIG. The upper end of the nameplate 24 is inserted into the upper edge of the window hole 2 while pressing the pressing member 6, and the lower end of the nameplate 24 is the upper end of the groove 3 formed on the upper surface of the lower edge of the window hole 2. When the lower end of the nameplate 24 is fitted into the groove portion 3 when reaching the upper limit, the upper end front surface of the nameplate 24 is pushed to the receiving surface portion 4 formed on the inner surface of the upper edge portion of the window hole 2 as shown in FIG. It will be pressed against and will be installed without rattling.

Further, when the nameplate 24 is removed, if the upper part of the nameplate 24 is pressed from the front side to the rear side, the upper part of the nameplate 24 presses the pressing member 6 and enters the inside, and it is easy to push it upward. Therefore, it can be easily removed by pushing up the name plate 24 and releasing the fitting of the name plate 24 into the lower groove 3 at the lower end.

[0010]

[Effect of device]

 As will be apparent from the description of the above embodiment, the present invention can be easily attached and removed without rattling the nameplate. Therefore, the present invention has a great practical value as a nameplate mounting device that solves the conventional problems.
