Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to relatively heavy electronic equipment, such as a terminal device, which is averse to being submerged in water.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Electronic devices are now widely used in a wide variety of fields in a variety of ways, and are often installed in locations that are at risk of flooding, such as basements. For example, automatic teller machines used in banks are computer terminals, but they are often installed in building basements or underground malls. Such locations are susceptible to flooding from rainwater, etc., and when installing electronic equipment, it is necessary to take measures such as combing to prevent the electronic equipment from flooding.

On the other hand, it is convenient if the height position of the electronic device can be changed for maintenance and inspection of the electronic device, replenishment of consumables, and the like.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the invention to provide an electronic device that is protected against water ingress and is easy to maintain.

Next, the present invention will be explained along with embodiments of the present invention shown in the accompanying drawings.

#IJl Figure 2 and Figure 2 show a schematic side view of the electronic device l of the present invention, and in this example, the electronic device l is an automatic machine with only the front part including the operation panel etc. exposed through the opening J in the wall. The electronic device main body S is a computer terminal device such as a cash withdrawal machine. The electronic device main body S may be any other known electronic device. The electronic alts/ of the present invention includes a base that supports the above-mentioned electronic device main body S on the floor 6.

The base 7 is maintained parallel to the frame by a frame having a roller r that can be moved on the floor 6, a scissor-shaped link mechanism lθ provided on the frame, and a scissor-shaped link mechanism io. It is equipped with a table that can be raised and lowered while moving up and down, and operating equipment such as a hydraulic cylinder (not shown) and a pump for operating the scissor-like link jam10.

In this way, the base 7 can be raised and lowered between the lowered position shown in FIG. 1 and the raised position shown in FIG. 2 while supporting the electronic device body S thereon, and is basically known in the art ( For example, a table lift from Koda F/G No. R/41) may be used.

The electronic device 1 of the present invention is normally used in the lowered position shown in FIG. When water accumulates on the iIK floor 6 at the time of water outflow, the actuating device 12 is actuated to raise the scissor-like link mechanism 7 and lift the electronic device main body S above the water surface. In this case, it is preferable that the actuating device /, 2 be a manual type in consideration of flooding.

If the electronic device is fitted in the wall opening 3 as shown in Figure 1, it must be moved backwards as shown in Figure 1 before being raised. Useful.

Although a table lift has been illustrated and described as a device for raising and lowering the base 7, that is, changing the height, other suitable known raising and lowering devices can also be used. For example, a forklift-type cantilever lift can be used,
It is also possible to move up and down using mechanical driving force instead of hydraulic pressure.

As is clear from the above description, the electronic device of the present invention can be protected against water immersion at a predetermined level because the height of the base is variable and can be raised and lowered. Furthermore, when maintaining and inspecting electronic equipment, the height of the base can be adjusted to make the work easier and more efficient.

Furthermore, even if the floor surface on which the electronic device is installed is lower than the floor surface on which the operator stands, the height of the operation panel can be adjusted to a height that is easy to operate. Furthermore, when the device is placed side by side with other devices of different heights, the height can be adjusted to maintain balance with the other devices and to avoid spoiling the aesthetics.
