Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to the structure of a connector panel for connecting cables and the like to electronic equipment.

A plurality of signal sources such as cameras are respectively connected to a television receiver for monitoring via coaxial cables.

In this case, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 1A, a coaxial cable 2 was connected to the rear surface 1a of a monitor receiver 1 via a connector 3.

(Note that 4 indicates a cathode ray tube.) Therefore, it is necessary to take a long distance 11 between the receiver 1 and the rear wall 5, which is disadvantageous in terms of space utilization.

Therefore, recently, as shown in FIG. 1B, the back surface 1a of the receiver 1 is cut into a V shape, and the connector 3 is attached to the upper oblique side 6 of the cut.

According to this method, the distance 12 between the receiver 1 and the wall 5 is 1□
<1. Therefore, compared to the method shown in FIG. 1A, it is advantageous in terms of space.

Such a monitor receiver 1 is provided with a plurality of connectors 3 for connecting a plurality of signal sources, and is usually provided with a connector panel to which these connectors 3 are attached.

2 and 3 show the structure of a connector panel 7 conventionally used to implement the connection method shown in FIG. 1B.

This connector panel 7 has a V-shape, and has a connector mounting plate 7a provided with holes 8 for mounting a plurality of connectors.
It consists of triangular side plates 7b and 7c, and is assembled by welding 9 the plate 7a and the side plates 7b and 7c at a plurality of locations.

Therefore, a welding process is required during assembly, and finishing treatment is also required to eliminate welding marks.

Also, a hairline finish is applied to improve the overall appearance, but if the finishing treatment is applied to eliminate the welding marks, the hairline will disappear in that area.

Therefore, screwing may be considered instead of welding, but this requires a large number of screws and a process for screwing.

The present invention has been devised in view of the above circumstances, and embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 4, the connector panel 10 according to the present invention includes a connector mounting plate 11 and two side plates 12 and 13.

To attach the connector, the plate 11 is made by bending a single metal plate so that the cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the longitudinal direction is approximately V-shaped, as shown in the figure.

This installation is done through screw holes 14 on both sides of the plate 11. 1
Attachment pieces 16 and 17 with holes 5 are integrally molded, and a plurality of connector attachment holes 18 and attachment screw holes 19 are provided on the upper oblique side 11a.

For installation, notches 20 to 23 are provided at both ends of the plate 11, and engagement holes 24 and 25 for assembly are provided at the top of the V-shape.
is provided.

The side plates 12, 13 have approximately triangular shapes, and are mounted using screw holes 26, 27, 28, 29 and pieces 30, 31.
Engaging pieces 32, 33° 34, 35 are provided, and locking protrusions 36°, 37 are integrally provided at the top.

This connector panel 10 is assembled as shown in FIG.

That is, the engagement piece 32.33 is brought into contact with the notch 20.21,
By fitting and locking the protrusion 36 into the engagement hole 24,
Assembling the connector panel 10 is completed by attaching the side plate 12, bringing the engagement pieces 34 and 35 into contact with the notches 22 and 23, and fitting and locking the protrusion 37 into the engagement hole 25.

This connector panel is attached to a rectangular opening 38 provided on the back surface 1a of the monitor receiver 1.

A frame 39 is fitted around this opening 38.

This frame 39 has screw holes 40.41.42.43°44,
45 is provided and an engaging recess 46, 47, 48° 4
9 is provided.

The connector panel 10 is installed on one piece 16.17.30.31
are stacked on the frame 39, and the engaging pieces 32, 33, 34, 35 are engaged with the recesses 46, 47, 48, 49.

After that, Nejikoi 4, 15 and 40, 41, 26, 27 and 4
2.43. 28.degree. 29 and 44.45 are brought into contact with each other and screwed together with screws 50 to 55.

According to the embodiment described above, when assembling the connector panel 10, processes such as welding and screwing are not required, and the plate 11 and the side plates 12.13 are attached to the protrusions 36.
．． Since it can be assembled just by engaging with 25,
Work can be greatly simplified.

Furthermore, since it can be assembled after hairline finishing and other treatments, it is possible to obtain a good-looking product.

Incidentally, the mounting holes 18 of the plate 11 are provided with connectors for connecting coaxial cables, respectively, so that they can be mounted with screws.

Although the embodiments in which the present invention is applied to a monitor receiver have been described above, the present invention can also be applied to the case of connecting cables, cords, etc. in general electronic equipment.

In this invention, the mounting is made by bending a plate-like body into a substantially V-shape.
For example, when attaching a connector, a connector for connecting a cable, cord, etc. is attached to one oblique side (for example, oblique side 11a) of the plate 11), and the above-mentioned attachment is performed using a substantially V-shaped connector formed at both ends of the plate. The opening is closed with a substantially triangular side plate (for example, side plate 12, 13), and at this time,
A protrusion (e.g. protrusion 36.3) provided on the top of the side plate
The above-mentioned attachment of 7) relates to a connector panel of an electronic device which is formed in such a way as to be engaged with an engagement hole (for example, engagement hole 24, 25) provided at the top of a substantially V-shape of the plate.

Therefore, according to the present invention, compared to the conventional method, the assembly work can be greatly simplified, and the finishing process can be completely performed on all parts, so that a good-looking product can be obtained. can.
