Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a panel mounting device for mounting a panel along the surface of a cabinet of audio equipment or other equipment, and is intended to improve the workability of mounting and dismounting with a simple configuration.

Conventionally, when connecting a flat panel to the cabinet surface of the equipment body in audio equipment or other equipment, a hook 11 is installed in advance inside the cabinet 9 as shown in FIG. Panel 10
There is a method in which the hook-shaped locking piece 13 is engaged with the engaging hole 12 of the cabinet 9 and around the through-hole 9a of the cabinet 9, or a method in which it is attached with screws or bonded with an adhesive.

However, in the case where the hook 11 is provided, the hook 11 is formed as a separate part and has to be attached in advance, resulting in poor workability, and since the hook 11 is located inside the cabinet, there is a problem that it takes up space inside the cabinet. . In particular, when the hook 11 is made of a synthetic resin material, it is necessary to make the hook 11 large in order to obtain sufficient elasticity, which inconveniently increases the space it occupies. Panels that use grooved screws are not easy to attach and detach, and panels that are glued together have the problem that the panels cannot be removed.

The present invention provides a panel mounting device that eliminates the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, and a detailed embodiment thereof is shown in FIG.
This will be explained based on FIGS. 2, 3, and 4.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a cabinet constituting the equipment water body, and 2 indicates panels attached along four parts 1d of the surface of the cabinet, both of which are made of synthetic resin. The cabinet 1 is provided with a hook piece 3 extending in the same plane as the surface of the cabinet 1, and a hook-shaped hook +1-J-'+-6 extending perpendicularly from the surface of the cabinet 1.

On the other hand, the panel 2 is provided with four portions 6 corresponding to the convex portions 4 of the hook piece 3 and a locking hole 7 for locking the locking piece 11-piece 6.

The second figure 11 shows the state before the panel 2 is slid, and the engagement IL piece 6 is inserted into the front edge of the engagement hole 7 of the panel 2. From this state, when the panel 2 is slid in the horizontal direction as shown in FIG. , deflects downward. When the panel 2 is further slid in the horizontal direction from this state, the concave part 6 and the convex part 4
At the same time, the tip of the locking piece 5 of the cabinet 1 is locked to the rear end of the locking hole 7 of the panel 2. Therefore, the panel 2 is urged upward by the elasticity of the hook piece 3, and this urging force is regulated by the locking of the locking piece 5 and the locking hole 7 of the locking piece 11, and in this state, the panel 2 is installed without wobbling. It will be done. It goes without saying that the hook piece 3 may be provided with a concave portion, and the panel 2 may be provided with convex portions that are engaged with these four portions.

Since the panel mounting device of the present invention is configured as described above, there is no need to manufacture other special parts or install them inside the cabinet, and the entire device can be configured at low cost and compact. Can be done. However, to install it, simply place the panel on the surface of the cabinet and slide it, and the convex part (or four parts) of the hook piece provided on the cabinet will engage with the four parts (or convex part) of the panel. Moreover, since the locking piece of the cabinet and the locking hole of the panel engage with each other to ensure a secure fit, the installation condition is stable and the installation and removal work is easy.

Furthermore, since the hook pieces extend flush with the surface of the cabinet, even if the hook pieces are made larger in order to increase their elasticity, they do not occupy space inside the main body.

Claims (1)

[Claims] An elastic hook piece extending in the same plane as the surface of the cabinet is attached to the resin cabinet that constitutes the main body of the device.
A hook-shaped locking piece extending perpendicularly from the surface of the cabinet is integrally formed, and the hook is engaged with a protrusion or a recess provided on the elastic hook piece on a panel attached along the surface of the cabinet. By forming a concave portion or a convex portion and a locking hole into which the tip of the hook-shaped locking piece is engaged, and sliding the panel along the surface of the cabinet, the unevenness of the cabinet and the panel is eliminated. and the locking piece is locked in the locking hole.
