Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a mounting device for a set leg used particularly in a portable television receiver, and is capable of mounting a set leg with a simple configuration.

As mentioned above, with a low-inch portable television receiver, if you try to watch it on the floor, etc., the screen is located low, making it difficult to see. A method has been proposed in which the set legs are rotatably mounted and the set legs are raised to face upward when viewing a television receiver.

The present invention makes it possible to easily attach such a set leg and to obtain stable rotation of the set leg.

One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a set leg made of metal having a cylindrical cross-section, and both ends of the U-shaped body are further bent in opposite directions at right angles to integrally form shaft portions 1a and 1b.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a cabinet of the television receiver, and 3 a bottom plate thereof, which has a substantially U-shaped recess 4 corresponding to the shape of the set leg 1 in order to accommodate the set leg 1, as shown in FIG. ing.

One end of the recess 4 has a hole 5 formed by cutting out a portion of the side wall and the bottom wall in a right angle direction and communicating between the inside and outside of the cabinet 2 in order to rotatably support the one shaft portion 1a of the set leg 1. The other end of the recess 4 is also notched in the side wall at right angles to form a hole 6 for communicating between the inside and outside of the cabinet 2, and a bearing portion 7 forming a recess continuous to the hole 6. Further, a stopper protrusion 8 is integrally formed adjacent to the opening side opposite to the opening side facing the hole 6 of the bearing portion 7.

Therefore, the stopper projection 8 is provided to protrude from the inner surface of the bottom plate portion 3.

Further, 9, 9 is a bearing surface portion for regulating the deployment angle of the set leg 1, which is formed by forming one side wall of the recess 4 into an inclined surface shape;
Reference numeral 10 denotes a substantially U-shaped set leg receiver for holding and holding the set leg 1 when it is closed and stored in the recess 4. The set leg holder 10 is integrally molded within the recess 4, and the bottom of the groove is formed in the recess. 4 is higher than the bottom surface by a distance P.

Here, the recess 4 is widened only around the set leg receiver 10 to form a wide recess 4a, and when the set leg 1 is inserted into the set leg receiver 10, the side walls of the set leg 1 and the wide recess 4a There is a gap large enough for a finger to fit between the two.

Further, the recess 4 has a side wall portion facing the hole 6 as a recess 4b.
This forms a place for the one shaft portion 1b to escape when the set leg 1 is attached to the bottom plate portion 3.

Reference numeral 11 denotes an elastic holding piece fixed to a boss (not shown) provided on the inner surface of the bottom plate portion 3 in the vicinity of the hole 5;
It has a stopper piece 11a that is in contact with one shaft part 1a of the set leg 1, and an elastic piece 11b that is approximately U-shaped and elastically contacts the one shaft part 1a of the set leg 1, and a screw 12 is attached to the boss. It is fixed at.

Next, the assembly of the above structure will be explained.

First, one shaft portion 1b of the set leg 1 is inserted into the hole 5, and the set leg 1 is moved in the direction of arrow L until the other shaft portion 1b of the set leg 1 reaches the recess 4b.

At this time, the other shaft portion 1b of the set leg 1 is completely accommodated in the recesses 4, 4b, so the set leg 1 is moved in the direction of the arrow R opposite to the direction of the arrow L, and the other shaft portion 1b of the set leg 1 is moved. The other shaft portion 1b is inserted into the hole 6 and into the bearing portion 7 until the tip abuts against the stopper projection 8.

This state is shown in Figure 3. Therefore, in this state, the set leg 1 can freely rotate with respect to the bottom plate part 3.

After that, the elastic support piece 11 is moved so that the tip of one shaft portion 1a of the set leg 1 comes into contact with the stopper piece 11a.
Further, a portion of the elastic piece 11b is fixed with a screw 12 so as to elastically abut against the one shaft portion 1a.

Therefore, at this time, the set leg 1 is the stopper piece 1
1a and the stopper protrusion 8, it will no longer move in the directions of arrows R and L and come off the bottom plate part 3, and will rotate freely due to the elastic contact of the elastic piece part 11b. It never moves.

Therefore, the phenomenon of collision with the bottom plate part 3 due to the free rotation of the set leg 1 is eliminated.

Then, when the set leg 1 is rotated around the shaft parts 1a and 1b and a part thereof is fitted into the set leg receiver 10, the set leg 1 is moved by the elastic force of the elastic holding piece 11 and the set leg receiver 10.
It is held by the clamping force of the recess 4 as shown in Fig. 3A.
The set leg 1 is stored and held inside, and the set leg 1 is not visible from the outside.

Next, when viewing a television receiver, the set legs 1 are unfolded as shown in FIG.

At this time, by providing a gap P between the set leg 1 and the bottom of the wide recess 4a, and by forming the wide recess 4a, the set leg 1 can be easily and reliably held by fingers. The set leg 1 can be smoothly removed from the set leg receiver 10.

After that, when the set leg 1 is further rotated and a part of it comes into contact with the bearing surface part 9, the set leg 1 is rotated as shown in FIG.
is regulated in this position, and supports the television receiver in this state as shown in FIG.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the installation of the set leg is completed by simply inserting the set leg into the hole provided in the bottom plate of the cabinet and then fixing the elastic holding piece, making the operation easy. One elastic holding piece prevents the set leg from moving in the axial direction, and also applies a load to the set leg to prevent it from freely rotating, making the configuration simple and easy to install. It is only necessary to tighten the screws of the elastic holding piece, and it is possible to eliminate damage to the equipment body due to free rotation of the set leg and noise of impact on the equipment body, and it is possible to obtain an easy-to-use set leg mounting device.
