Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a composite electronic device in which at least two different electronic devices, such as a television receiver and a radio receiver, are incorporated into the same housing. It is designed so that the installed state can be changed while the machine is being used, and the changing operation can be easily performed.

The present invention incorporates circuits constituting a television receiver, a radio receiver, and a circuit constituting an electronic clock on a base that incorporates a power supply circuit composed of, for example, a rectifier/smoothing circuit, a power transformer, etc. The main body of the device is rotatably installed, and the main body of the device is arranged such that the image projection surface of the cathode ray tube appears on the m- side of the main body, and the television receiver and Install the cathode ray tube, speaker, and clock so that the front surface of the speaker and the time display section of the clock that are shared with the radio receiver are exposed, and turn the equipment water so that the image projection surface of the cathode ray tube faces the front. Set the device so that the television receiver and clock are turned on when the camera is set up, but the radio receiver is turned off), and the speaker and time display of the clock are facing forward. When this happens, the television receiver is stopped, but the radio receiver and clock are allowed to operate.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows the state in which a radio receiver is operated, and FIG. 2 shows the state in which a television receiver is operated. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a base, which houses a power supply circuit consisting of a power transformer, a rectification/smoothing circuit, a voltage stabilization circuit, etc. Reference numeral 2 denotes the main body of the device, which incorporates a television receiver circuit, a radio receiver circuit, and an electronic clock, and a speaker 3.2 that is shared by the television receiver and radio receiver on the - side. A time display section 4 for an electronic clock and an indicator 5 for a radio receiver are installed. Further, the device main body 2 has the cathode ray tube 6 installed so that the image projection surface of the cathode ray tube 6 appears on a second surface substantially orthogonal to the first surface, and also has a TV channel selection knob 7 on the second surface. Indicator 8 and Ui for television receivers (F, VHF
A band switching knob 9 is also installed. Furthermore, the device main body 2 has a third (2) which is perpendicular to the first and second surfaces, and has a power switch/volume adjustment variable resistor (10). Radio tuning knob 11, radio band (AM
-FM) switching knob 12, power switch switching knob 13
and a brightness switching knob 14 of the time display section 4, and a plurality of buttons 15 for setting the time are installed perpendicular to the first and third surfaces and facing the second surface. ing.

In the above configuration, the device main body 2 is rotatably attached to the base 1. The structure of this rotating part is shown in FIG. The main body 2 of the device is rotatably attached to the base 1 by two plate-shaped swing arms 16, 17. In other words, both ends of the two swing arms 16, 17 are attached to the base. The stand 1° is rotatably connected to the device main body 2.

Figure 1 shows the state in which the radio receiver is ready for operation.
At this time, the first surface on which the speaker 31, time display section 4, and radio receiver indicator 5 are installed faces the front. In this state, by operating the knob 10 of the power switch and variable resistor for adjusting the tone location, and further operating the channel selection knob 11, it is possible to listen to the radio broadcast of a desired station. of course,
At this time, the electronic clock is also operating, and the time display section 4 indicates the current time. On the other hand, when looking at the cathode ray tube 6 in this state, since its image projection surface faces downward and faces the base 1, the cathode ray tube 6 can be protected and safety is improved.

If you want to watch the television receiver next time from this state, rotate the main body 2 of the device in the direction of arrow A with respect to the base 1, and as shown in FIG. Indicator 8 and VHF.

Point it toward the second surface where the UHF band switching knob 9 is installed. When the power switch is turned on and the device body 2 is rotated, the radio receiver operation is automatically switched to the television receiver operation, and the band selection knob 9 and the channel selection knob 7 are further operated. Therefore, it is possible to receive the television broadcast of a desired station. Of course, the electronic clock continues to operate even in this state. Then, when the device main body 2 is rotated in the direction of arrow B with respect to the base 1, the speaker 39 and the time display section 4. The first device on which the radio indicator 5 is installed can be faced to the front.

Generally speaking, this configuration allows the indicator 6 to be used in both the usage state of the television receiver and the usage state of the radio receiver.
．． 8 is positioned facing the front, and each operation function is independent, improving operability. Moreover, the two swing arms 16 and 17 allow easy switching from one usage state to the other usage state. Here, if an elastic body that exerts an elastic force in the direction of rotation of the device body 2 is installed on the rotating shaft portion of the swing arms 16, 17, the rotation operation of the device body 2 can be made more smoothly. I can do it.

In the above embodiment, a case where a television receiver, a radio receiver, and an electronic clock are incorporated in the same housing is described; Alternatively, the present invention can also be applied to the case where other devices are integrated.

As described above, according to the present invention, at least two different types of electronic devices are built into one housing, at least the main functional parts of each are arranged on two sides of the housing, and the housing is placed in a state of use. By installing the functional parts in a rotatable manner so that the surface on which the functional parts are arranged faces the front, each functional part faces the front in each usage state of each electronic device, making it easy to operate. Improves sex. Furthermore, by installing the housing so that it can rotate, it is possible to easily switch from the usage state of one electronic device to the usage state of the other electronic device.
