Abstract

PURPOSE: To easily perform the installing work or inspecting work of an electronic equipment mounting device without deteriorating the resistance to rain of the device by providing an opening/closing means which supports the main body of the device in an openable/closable state between a mounting base and the main body. CONSTITUTION: After a mounting base 20 is installed on an outdoor wall surface, etc., wiring 22 from the outside is led to and connected to the wiring connecting section 21 of the base 20. The main body 10 of an electronic equipment mounting device is supported by the base 20 in an openable/closable state against the base 20 by inserting the front end sections of the pins of hinge parts 30a into the holes of hinge parts 30b. After the pins are inserted into the holes, a signal route to the outside is formed so that electronic equipment in the body 10 can be operated. When the rear surface of the body 10 is brought into contact with the base 20 in this way by closing the body 10, the front end section of a partition wall 23 is joined to a waterproof packing 11b and, at the same time, pressured by the elasticity of the packing 11b. As a result, the area of a first space 24, namely, the area from the equipment housed in the body 10 to the lead-in port of external wiring 22 including connecting leads 40 and a wiring connecting section 21 can be water-proofed.
