Prevents the L-angle 30 from coming off,
The protrusion 34 firmly maintains the state perpendicular to the bottom surface of the main body 24. In addition, as shown in FIG.
Is parallel to the bottom surface of the body 24, the screw 42 is screwed into the screw hole 31b of the plate-shaped portion 30b of the L-shaped angle 30 through the through hole 44, and the microphone mounting portion 32 is separated from the L-shaped angle 30. To prevent the protrusion 34
Firmly maintains the state of being parallel to the bottom surface of the main body 24.

In the microphone mounting device constructed as described above, the state of being placed on the table as shown in FIGS. 1 (a), 1 (b) and 4 (a) is changed to the state of being mounted on the wall as shown in FIG. 4 (b). In this case, the screw 42 is removed from the screw hole 31a, the microphone mounting portion 32 is removed from the L-shaped angle 30, and the microphone mounting portion 32 is rotated by 90 ° as shown in FIG. Are arranged in parallel to the bottom surface of the main body 24, and the L-shaped angle plate-shaped portion 30a is connected to the plate-shaped portion 56,
58, 60 and the arcuate portion 46, and the plate-like portion 30b is restricted by the base portion 40 and the arcuate portions 46, 48. Then, the screw 42 is inserted through the through hole 44 and screwed into the screw hole 31b of the plate-shaped portion 30b of the L-shaped angle. It is also possible to change from such a state to the state shown in FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b).

Although the L-shaped angle 30 is used as the supporting portion in the above embodiment, instead of this, for example, only one plate-shaped portion 30a or 30b of the L-shaped angle 30 may be provided. For example, when only the plate-shaped portion 30a is provided,
The plate-shaped portions 58 and 60 may be removed and a table similar to the table 40 may be provided. In this case, the base 40 and the arcuate protrusion 46,
48 serves as the first sandwiching portion, and the base portion replacing the plate-like portions 58 and 60, the arcuate projection 48, and the plate-like portion 56 serve as the second sandwiching portion. With this structure, the structure is simpler than that of the above-described embodiment, but since the weight of the microphone 22 and the like is entirely received by the single plate-shaped portion 30a, there is a possibility that a problem in strength may occur. In this embodiment, since the weight of the microphone 22 and the like is received by the L-shaped angle 30, the strength is sufficient.

In the above embodiment, the arcuate portion 46,
The microphone mounting portion 32 was fixed to the L-shaped angle 30 using the 48, the plate-shaped portions 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60 and the base portion 40, but the arc-shaped portions 46, 48 and the plate-shaped portion 5 were used.
Instead of 0, 52, 54, 56 and 58, 60, a concave groove having a width dimension substantially equal to the thickness dimension of the L-shaped angle may be formed on the inner peripheral surface of the microphone mounting portion 32. .

Further, in the above embodiment, the L-shaped angle 3
0 and each plate-shaped portion 5 provided in the microphone mounting portion 32
0, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, arcuate portions 46, 4
8 and the base 40, the microphone mounting portion 32 is L
Although it is attached to the mold angle 30, instead of this, for example, the disc-shaped portion 26 of the main body 24 has a center of 90 ° as the apex angle.
It is also possible to use a so-called click stop structure in which at least two protrusions or recesses are provided at intervals and correspondingly the recesses or protrusions are provided on the front end surface of the microphone mounting portion 32. However, when using the click-stop structure, it is desirable to provide a means for automatically preventing the microphone mounting portion 32 from rotating due to the weight of the microphone 22.
