Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an operating knob for a sliding operating component suitable for use in electronic equipment such as radios and tape recorders. Conventionally, slide knobs used to operate slide switches and slide volumes on radios, tape recorders, etc. were attached directly to the operating rods that protruded from the components themselves, so it was difficult to apply force to the slide knobs. If this is applied, the force will be directly transmitted to the switch volume etc., causing damage to these parts, or the rattling of the switch itself will cause the rattling of the switch itself, causing the used parts to lose their high-quality feel. Another disadvantage is that dirt and the like can directly enter the used parts through slits provided in the cabinet etc. for operating the volume etc. The present invention aims to provide an operating knob that can solve these inconveniences. That is, the present invention allows operating the operating rod of a slide switch, slide volume, etc. with a knob via a slide spacer, without directly attaching the knob to the operating lever protruding from the slide switch, slide volume, etc. component itself. It is an object of the present invention to provide a knob for operating a sliding type operating component which is configured to do so and which does not cause rattling or the like during sliding operation. Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. 1st
2 and 3, 1 is a mounting body for parts such as a cabinet or chassis, 2 is a display plate provided on the top surface of the mounting body that shows the amount of operation of a slide volume, a switch, etc., and 3 is a slide knob. It is a child.
4 and 4' are aluminum decorative plates attached to the cabinet, and 5 is a slide spacer. This spacer 5 is attached to the cabinet 1 and slides into the recessed groove of the cabinet. The slide knob 3 is engaged with this spacer 5 .
When the slide volume (or switch) 6 is fitted into the spacer 5 and the slide knob 3 is moved,
Slide volume (switch) 6 is spacer 5
Move through. 7 is a board to which the slide volume 6, antenna 8, etc. are attached. FIG. 3 shows these assembled states. To explain further, the upper part of the cabinet 1 has elongated holes 9, 9' into which the protruding legs 12 of the slide knob 3 can slide, and a slide groove for the spacer 5. 10,1
0' and insertion holes 11, 11' for the slide legs 13, 13' of the spacer 5 , and the slide grooves 1
0 and 10' and the insertion holes 11 and 11' are constructed so that they are not visible from the outside in order to attach the aluminum decorative plate 4 to the cabinet. The spacer 5 has slide feet 1 to be slid into the slide grooves 10 and 10' of the previous cabinet.
3, 13', spring-like protruding ribs 14, 14' for absorbing vertical play, knob engagement holes 15, 1 for engaging with the protruding legs 12 of the slide knob 3
5' and an operating lever engagement hole 16 for engaging with an operating lever 17 of the volume 6 are provided. Insert the slide legs of the spacer 5 into the insertion holes 11, 11' of the cabinet, slide it in the direction of arrow P, insert the slide knob 3 from above, and lock it in the knob engagement holes 15, 15' of the spacer 5 . Engage with claw piece a. The elongated holes 9 and 9' in the cabinet are long enough to accommodate the stroke of the slide volume, etc., and if the length of the slide grooves 10 and 10' is slightly longer than this stroke, the slide knob can be attached. In this state, the spacer will not come off from the cabinet. The operation rod 17 of the slide volume 6 thus attached to the printed circuit board is inserted into the operation rod engagement hole 16 of the spacer, and then the circuit board is fixed. Since the present invention has such a configuration, the following effects can be obtained. (1) Even if the slide knob is pressed downward, since it is supported by a spacer or cabinet, no direct force is applied to sliding operation parts such as the volume or switch, so there is no risk of damage. (2) The slide knob is attached directly to the spacer and slides into the guide slide groove of the cabinet, so the rattling of the volume etc. does not affect the knob and operation is smooth. (3) Conventionally, slide knobs were fitted to the operating rods of the volume or were attached by adhesive, which caused inconveniences such as the knobs easily coming off and adhesives getting into the volume. However, according to the present invention, such drawbacks can be completely eliminated. (4) Since there is no need to drill a long hole in the cabinet directly above the slide volume, it is less likely that dust or the like will directly enter the volume and cause defects. (5) Since the component mounting body is held between the L-shaped slide leg of the slide spacer and the spring-like protrusion rib,
The spring-like protruding ribs can absorb the swinging in the direction perpendicular to the sliding direction that occurs during sliding.
