Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an electrical signal transmission/reception structure, and in particular to an electrical signal suitable for supplying electrical signals to electronic devices such as small disk devices that are packed with high density. It concerns the give-and-receive structure.

[Conventional technology]

In recent years, electronic devices have been becoming smaller, and at the same time, a plurality of miniaturized electronic devices as described above are being connected and used as necessary. What is important in this case is that the electronic device can be easily connected and disconnected.

An example of a conventional device of this type is the Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 60-29
The device described in Japanese Patent No. 989 can be mentioned. The purpose of this device is to provide a simple connector on the rear surface of the '11 child device to facilitate the replacement of the electronic device.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional technology, electrical signals are sent and received to and from the electronic equipment through the connector on the rear of the equipment, so (1) the space on the rear of the electronic equipment cannot be used effectively; and (2) during maintenance. (3) It is necessary to provide a backboard or frame depending on the arrangement of the electronic devices that make up the system.

Further, in the above-described conventional technology, no consideration was given to a structure that takes into account high-density packaging, such as additional mounting of electronic devices.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to solve the above-mentioned problems in the conventional technology and to facilitate implementation when a plurality of electronic devices are mounted. , and easy to maintain after implementation.
The objective is to provide an electrical signal transfer structure to electronic equipment.

[Means for solving problems]

The above-mentioned object of the present invention is to provide an electric signal exchange structure for supplying an electric signal containing electric power to an electronic device, in which a cylindrical cover that is separable from the electronic device is provided, and an electric signal provided on the inner surface of the cylindrical cover is provided. The contact is configured to be connectable to an electric contact provided on the outer surface of the electronic device, and configured such that a conductor ring provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical cover is electrically connected to the electric contact provided on the inner surface of the cover. This is achieved by an electrical signal transfer structure characterized by the following.

[Effect]

In the present invention, an electronic device is connected to the electronic device. c.
It is inserted into a cover for transmitting/receiving LQI No. 8, and electrical signals are transmitted/received to/from the electronic device via the cover.

An annular conductor is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cover, and the annular conductor is connected to an electronic device on the inner surface, and the cover can be connected to each other by the annular conductor.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an outline of a structure for transmitting and receiving electrical signals to an electronic device, which is an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is an electronic device main body, and 2 to 4 are contacts for transmitting and receiving electrical signals provided on the surface (here, the top surface) of the electronic device main body 1.

Further, reference numeral 5 indicates a cover for transmitting and receiving electric signals, and numerals 6 to 8 indicate conductors for transmitting and receiving electric signals provided in a loop shape on the outer surface of the cover for transmitting and receiving electric signals 5.

The loop-shaped electrical signal transmitting/receiving conductors 6 to 8 provided on the outer surface of the electrical signal transmitting/receiving structure 5 are provided on the upper surface of the electronic device main body 1 at appropriate positions on the inner surface of the electrical signal transmitting/receiving cover 5. It is configured so that it can be connected to the electrical signal exchange contacts 2 to 4 that are provided.

Therefore, necessary electrical signals can be supplied to the electronic device main body 1 simply by inserting the electronic device main body 1 into the interior of the electrical signal transmitting/receiving cover 5 as shown in FIG. In this case, it goes without saying that it is necessary to supply the necessary electrical signals to the electronic device main body 1 to the electrical signal transmitting/receiving cover 5 at an appropriate position.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, if a plurality of the electrical signal transmitting and receiving covers 5 are arranged vertically and horizontally, all the electrical signal transmitting and receiving covers 5 are electrically connected.

Therefore, for example, if an electrical signal transmitting/receiving unit such as a power supply unit is inserted into the electrical signal transmitting/receiving cover 5A in the lower right corner, it will be inserted into all other electrical signal transmitting/receiving covers 5 just by that operation. It becomes possible to supply the electronic device 1 with electrical signals such as the power source.

According to this embodiment, when adding electronic equipment, it is sufficient to integrate the corresponding number of electrical signal transmitting/receiving covers 5, and special wiring is not required.

In addition, when replacing or maintaining electronic devices that are installed in multiple integrated formats, by starting the corresponding electronic device, you can do it without affecting other electronic devices at all.
It also has the effect of helping you reach your goals.

As described above, the structure of the annular conductor provided in the electric signal transfer cover 5 may be such that the conductor provided on the outer circumferential surface and the contact portion with the electronic device provided on the inner surface are connected; Needless to say, it is also possible to construct it as a single piece, that is, as a thick conductor.

As a specific application example of this embodiment, 3 inch or 5 inch
An example is a case where a plurality of small inch disk devices are set and used so as to have the same capability as a large disk device.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, various electronic devices can be
Since it is inserted into the cover for sending and receiving electrical signals to the electronic device, and the electrical signal is sent and received to the electronic device through the cover, when a plurality of electronic devices are mounted, Electrical signal transmission and reception to electronic devices that is easy to implement and that allows only the device in question to be pulled out without affecting other electronic devices during maintenance of the installed electronic device. This has the remarkable effect of realizing the structure.
