Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The purpose of this invention is to provide an excellent handle mounting device that has a simple structure and can be easily and reliably mounted for use in radio receivers, tape recorders, and other equipment. It is something to do.

Generally, when attaching a handle, the shaft of the handle is inserted into a through hole formed in the cabinet, and an E washer or nut is connected to the tip of the shaft protruding inside the cabinet, and the handle is tightened and fixed. . However, this type of product requires a separate E-washer and nut, and if a nut is used, a special configuration is required to prevent the nut from loosening due to rotation of the handle, resulting in a complicated overall structure. It was not very desirable.

The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks and provides an excellent handle attachment device that has a simple structure and can be easily and securely attached.

Hereinafter, the handle attachment device of the present invention will be explained with reference to drawings of one embodiment. In the figure, 1 is a cabinet, 2 is a circular through hole for attaching a handle formed in the side plate 1a of the cabinet, and 3 and 4 are mutually connected holes formed integrally on the inner surface of the side plate 1a adjacent to the through hole 2. Opposing ribs 5 have a shaft 6 at one end and an arm 8 having a protrusion 7 for attaching the handle body at the other end.
9 is a ring-shaped groove formed on the outer periphery of the tip of the shaft portion 6 and is engaged with the tips of the ribs 3 and 4 when the shaft portion 6 is inserted into the through hole 2; The handle body is tightened and fixed with screws 10, 11 is the shaft portion 6
The flange portions 12 and 13 formed at the tip of the flange portion 11
These are notches cut out parallel to each other on the outer periphery of the .

The handle is composed of a handle body 9 and an arm 5, and the ribs 3 and 4 are formed so that the distance between them becomes narrower toward the tip, and the gap between the notches 12 and 13 is The distance 1 is configured to be slightly larger than the distance L between the leading ends of the ribs 3 and 4.

In the above embodiment, the shaft portion 6 of the handle is connected to the side plate 1a.
When inserted into the through hole 2 from the outside, the tip of the shaft portion 6 and the flange portion 11 come into contact with the ribs 3 and 4, and the tips of the ribs 3 and 4 are elastically deformed in a direction in which they open from each other. In this case, if you insert the notches 12 and 13 parallel to the ribs 3 and 4, you can easily insert the shaft part 6. When you push it in completely, the tips of the ribs 3 and 4 will be inserted into the shaft part 6.
The ribs 3, 4 are opposed to the groove 8 formed in the groove 8, and are engaged with the groove 8 by elastic force. As a result, the shaft portion 6 is pivotally supported by the through hole 2 and further prevented from coming off by the ribs 3 and 4. Therefore, according to the above embodiment, the handle can be easily and rotatably attached without requiring any separate E-ring or nut. In particular, according to the above embodiment, since the notches 12 and 13 are formed in the flange 11, if the notches 12 and 13 are positioned parallel to the ribs 3 and 4, insertion of the shaft 6 becomes easier. No extra force is applied to the ribs 3, 4, making attachment of the handle extremely easy.

As is clear from the above embodiments, according to the handle attachment device of the present invention, there is no need for a separate E-ring, nut, etc., and the shaft portion can be simply inserted into the through hole formed in the side plate and pushed in. This makes the work extremely easy. In particular, a pair of ribs that engage with a ring-shaped groove provided in the shaft portion of the handle face each other across a through hole provided in the side plate of the cabinet having a U-shaped cross section, and Since they are integrally formed so that they extend toward the opening side of the cabinet and the spacing becomes narrower toward the tip, there is an advantage that the mold structure for molding the cabinet does not become complicated. In addition, it can be elastically engaged with the outer circumferential surface of the ring-shaped groove provided in the handle shaft to apply an appropriate frictional force to achieve smooth rotation. Moreover, the flange at the tip of the handle shaft is provided with mutually parallel notches, and the spacing between the notches is slightly larger than the spacing between the tips of the pair of ribs, so that the handle shaft The part can be inserted very easily between the pair of ribs, and once it is inserted and rotated slightly, the tip of the rib will elastically engage with the outer circumference of the concave groove of the shaft part, making it difficult for it to come out and providing a suitable fit. It is possible to apply a frictional force and the mounting state is extremely stable.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A through hole for attaching a handle is formed in a side plate of a cabinet having a U-shaped cross section, and the through holes are opposed to each other with the through hole sandwiched inside the side plate, and extend toward the opening side of the cabinet and toward the tip. Ribs whose spacing becomes narrower as the distance increases, are integrally formed, and the shaft portion of the handle inserted into the through hole is elastically engaged with the tips of the ribs on the outer periphery to prevent the shaft portion from coming off. At the same time, a ring-shaped concave groove is formed to provide an appropriate frictional force, and a flange at the tip of the shaft is formed with mutually parallel notches whose spacing is slightly larger than the spacing between the tips of the ribs. Handle attachment device.
