Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in the mounting structure of an electronic device that is mounted on, for example, an automobile for use.

Conventionally, there are various mounting structures for automobile wireless communication equipment, etc., and FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a typical mounting structure.

That is, the mounting structure of this electronic device is mounted under the dashboard of an automobile using screws. It consists of a device mounting body 1 and an electronic device 2 that is engaged with and fixed to this mounting body, and this device mounting body 1 is formed in a U-shape and has an upper plate la.
It is provided with a mounting hole 3 in the side plate lb, an engagement groove 4 for engaging the electronic device 2 in the side plate 1b, and a support piece 5 extending outward from the front end of the side plate. This support piece 5 has a screw hole 6 formed therein. On the other hand, the electronic device 2 is provided with a protrusion 7 that engages with the engagement groove 4 and a supported piece 9 that fixes the device 2 to the support piece 5 by inserting a screw 8 into the side thereof. . 10 is a control panel of the device 2.

However, since the electronic device mounting structure described above has the protrusion 7 and the supported piece 9 protruding from the side of the electronic device 2, the electronic device 2 is made to stand on its own by using the side of the electronic device 2. It is difficult to do so.

For this reason, work such as assembling the equipment body, assembling parts, and maintaining the equipment is extremely troublesome, resulting in a decrease in work efficiency. Further, when the electronic device 2 is used as a mobile device without being attached to a car, there is a problem that the protrusion 7 and the supported piece 9 not only get in the way but also spoil the appearance of the device 2.
``Another conventional mounting structure for electronic devices, in order to improve the appearance of the electronic device, is to allow the device to be inserted into and removed from the device mount in a pull-out manner, and to have an elastic member, etc. on the inner wall of the upper plate of the device mount. By pressing and fixing the device with this elastic member,
There is a structure in which the supported piece 9 shown in FIG. 1 is removed.

However, this mounting structure requires many parts, is structurally complex, is expensive, and has drawbacks such as reducing the degree of freedom when mounting the mounting body on an automobile.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to eliminate protruding members from electronic equipment so that it can be attached to the equipment mounting body, thereby providing a simple structure, high workability, and an excellent appearance. The present invention provides a mounting structure for electronic equipment.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5. Figure 2 shows the external appearance of the equipment mounting body, Figure 3 shows the external appearance of the slider, Figure 4 shows the external appearance of the electronic equipment, and Figure 5 shows a side view of the electronic equipment housed in the equipment mounting body. There is. First, "equipment mounting body 11 shown in FIG.
In this case, the top plate 11a is formed into a U-shape and has a mounting hole 12 through which a screw can be inserted, and the mounting body 11 is mounted under the dashboard of a car, etc., and the bottom of one side plate 11b is A supporting piece 14 is bent outward from the front end of the side plate 11b to form a guide part 13 for the equipment. As shown, the upper part is formed so as to be inclined toward the rear of the mounting body. 15 is a screw hole.

Next, the slider 6 shown in FIG.
A supported piece 18 is provided whose tip end side is bent to one side and has approximately the same inclination angle as the support piece 14, and a part of the bottom of the slider body 17 is further bent to form a presser part 19.

The holding portion 19 is engaged with the long groove of the electronic device together with the guide portion 13, as will be described later. Note that the supported piece 18 is provided with an insertion hole 20 through which a screw is inserted. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the electronic device 21 consists of a device main body 22 and a control panel 23 attached to the front of the device.
Long grooves 24 are formed in both side plates 22a of No. 2 along the device housing direction.

To install the slider 16, the presser part 19 is positioned inside the device mounting body 11 and brought close to the support piece 14, and then the screw 26 is inserted into the insertion hole 20' and the screw tail machine is attached to the support piece 14. Screw hole 15
Screw in until it slightly engages. Therefore, in this state, the presser portion 19 of the slider 16 is substantially on the same line as the guide portion 13 of the device mounting body 11. However, it is of course possible to attach the slider 16 in advance before attaching the mounting body 11 under the dashboard or the like. Therefore, after setting as described above, when the tail end of the long groove 24 of the electronic device 21 is engaged with the holding portion 19 of the slider 16 and pushed in, the electronic device 21 is moved through the long groove 24 to the holding portion 19 of the slider 6 and the guide. It engages with the portion 13 and is housed in the device mounting body 11.

Once the electronic device 21 has been set to the localization mode in this manner, the screws 26 inserted through the two insertion holes of the slider 16 are tightened as shown in FIG. As a result, the slider 16 is regulated by the inclination angle of the support piece 14 while the screw 2 is
6, the holding portion 19 moves forward and at the same time moves in the width direction of the long groove 24 (downward direction of the mounting body). Therefore, when the screw 26 is inserted a certain distance, the holding part 19 and the guide part 13 apply a large force to the outermost groove 24 of the electronic device 21 in opposite directions. In other words, the holding part 19 acts on the lower wall of the Saicho 24, the guide part 13 acts on the upper wall of the long groove 24, and the electronic device 21
