Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention has a card holder attached to the top surface of a keyboard equipped with a group of programmable function keys in close proximity to the group of programmable function keys, and information written on a card inserted into the card holder. The present invention relates to an improvement of a card holder mounting structure in a multi-item input device in which each key of the group of programmable function keys displays contents to be input.

A conventional keyboard 10 of the multi-item input device as described above is shown in FIG.

In the figure, 1 is a keyboard cover, 2 is a group of programmable function keys provided on the keyboard 1, and 3 is a card holder attached to the top surface of the cover 1 in close proximity to the group 2 of programmable function keys.

The card holder 3 has a bottom plate 4, as shown in detail in FIG.
A transparent cover part 5 is fixed to the cover 1 with an adhesive 6, and is fixed to the cover 1 with an adhesive 7.

In this case, since adhesive is used for assembling and fixing the card holder 3, it takes time and effort, and since the card holder 3 is long, it is prone to deformation such as warping, and when this deformation occurs, the adhesive part is easy to peel off, especially When the bottom plate 4 and the cover part 5 are peeled off and a gap is created in this part, the tip of the card inserted into the gap 8 formed between the bottom plate 4 and the cover part 5 gets caught in this gap, and the card is damaged. becomes difficult to enter.

Furthermore, when inserting a card into the cavity 8, the cavity 8 is higher than the top surface of the cover 1 by the thickness of the bottom plate 4, and the card must be inserted by aiming for this cavity 8, which is troublesome. .

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned various drawbacks, and the purpose is to provide a card holder mounting structure that allows easy card insertion and that does not require the insertion of a single card even if the card holder is deformed. It is said that

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

FIG. 3 is a side view showing an exploded state of the embodiment of the card holder mounting structure according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a side view showing the same card holder mounting state.

In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes a card holder, which is molded from synthetic resin or the like to have a uniform cross-sectional shape with a side surface portion 13 integrally provided at the lower part of an upper surface portion 12 and projecting downward.

On the other hand, the upper surface of the force bar 1 has a side surface 1 of the card holder 11.
A recess 14 of a predetermined depth is formed into which the lower part of the recess 3 fits.

When attaching the card holder 11, for example, as illustrated in FIG. The installation is facilitated by inserting the side part 13 into the hole 16 provided in the cover 1 until the end face of the side part 13 comes into contact with the bottom face of the recess part 14, and heat-staking the head part of the protruding part 15 as shown in FIG. I can do it.

The card insertion cavity 17 of the card holder 11 installed in this way is formed directly on the cover 1 without using the bottom plate as in the conventional case, so when the card is inserted, the cover 1
The card can be inserted using the top surface as a guide, making it possible to insert the card easily and reliably.

In addition, if the card holder 11 attached in this manner is deformed such as warping, the lower surface of the side surface 13 and the recess 14
Although a gap is formed between the cover 1 and the bottom surface of the cover 1, this gap can be prevented from being exposed above the top surface of the cover 1 by appropriately selecting the depth of the recess 14.

Therefore, this gap does not interfere with card insertion.

The attachment of the door holder 11 to the cover 1 is not limited to the above-mentioned means, and other means may be used, such as, for example, fixing the end surface of the side surface 13 to the bottom surface of the recess 14 with adhesive. Of course.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to facilitate the attachment of the card holder to the cover, and also to easily and securely insert the card into the card holder.
