[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to the improvement of remote controllers, and particularly in remote controllers such as large projector-type TV video equipment, from the daily operation section to the maintenance adjustment section. This invention relates to a function-separated remote controller for video equipment that enables separation of functions.

[Prior art] In recent years, as TV video devices have become larger, projector-type TVs have become
The video equipment is at odds. Since the projector-type TV image device generally requires convergence adjustment from a location away from the screen, this type of remote controller is equipped with a maintenance system as well as the daily operations such as the brightness and contrast of the projector-type TV image device. An operating section such as a keyboard is provided.

In other words, convergence adjustment such as projector color tone adjustment and view angle adjustment, which are maintenance-related adjustments in projector-type TV video equipment, and brightness adjustment and contrast adjustment, which are daily operation-related adjustments, can be performed by one remote control. It was done using a device.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] Therefore, it is difficult to reduce the size of the machine casing of the remote control device described above.
Due to its weight, it is inconvenient to operate a portable maintenance system equipped with a keyboard, and the cable connecting the projector-type TV image device and the remote controller is thick, making it difficult to move. There were problems with sexuality.

This invention was made in view of the above problem, and aims to improve the operability of a remote controller in video equipment such as a projector-type TV video device, and is intended to improve the operability of a remote controller in a video equipment such as a projector-type TV video equipment. The present invention aims to provide a functionally separated remote controller for video equipment with good performance.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The function-separated remote controller for video equipment of the present invention is a remote controller that is separated from video equipment that requires various remote adjustments such as a projector type TV video device. It constitutes a hand-operated device that is detachably attachable to and electrically connected to the machine casing of the remote-control device main body, and that a part of the operation part of the remote-control function is provided in the hand-operated device. This is a summary.

[Function] When the function-separated remote controller for video equipment configured as described above is configured as a remote controller for a projector-type TV video device, for example, the so-called maintenance-type adjustment operation unit for convergence adjustment inputted from a keyboard, etc. It is constructed on the side of the hand-operated controller, which is separate from the controller main body, and the so-called everyday adjustment operation section for brightness adjustment or contrast adjustment in normal use is constructed on the controller main body side. Therefore, the hand-held operating device includes only a maintenance system adjustment operating section, which simplifies the structure and allows it to be made smaller and lighter. Furthermore, since the connection cable connecting the hand-operated device and the main body of the hand-operated device has fewer input lines from the hand-operated device, the cable can be made thinner, and the operability of the hand-operated device can be improved.

[Example 1] An embodiment of the functionally separated remote controller for video equipment according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which it is used separately, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing an integrated state. FIG. 3 is a partially cutaway side view.

Reference numeral 1 denotes the main body of the operating device, which has an accommodation recess 3 for removably housing the hand operating device 2 on the upper surface of the machine casing 1a. The side edge 5.5 of the shoulder part is engaged with the shoulder part side edge 5.5, and it comes to slide in the direction of arrow A. On the front side of the operator main body 1, there are a plurality of screen adjustments that adjust and drive daily operation adjustment circuits (not shown) built into the machine housing 1a, such as the projector's brightness adjustment and contrast adjustment of the receiver. Buttons 8, 8, . . . are arranged, and a cable 7 is led out from the back side and connected to an adjustment signal input terminal of a projector type TV image device (not shown). Furthermore, a convergence adjustment keyboard 6 is disposed on the top surface of the hand control device 2 for inputting adjustments to the maintenance adjustment circuit (not shown) built into the machine housing 1a, such as color tone adjustment and viewing angle adjustment. At the same time, a male coupler 10 formed on the end wall 9 of the accommodation recess 3 of the operating device main body 1
A female coupler 11 is provided on the back surface of the hand-operated device 2 so as to face the hand-operated device 2, and the hand-operated device 2 inserted into the housing recess 3 is electrically connected to the main body 1 of the device.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a cable connector configured on the front side of the operating device main body 1, which is connected to a cable connector 13 configured on the back side of the hand operated device 2 via a current-carrying cable 14 of an appropriate length. Instead of the male coupler 10 and the female coupler 11, the hand operated device 2 inserted from the accommodation recess 3 and the operating device main body 1 are electrically connected.

In the function-separated remote controller for video equipment having the above configuration, normally the power cable 14 is removed and the hand controller 2 is connected to the controller main body 1.
The male coupler 10 is inserted and integrated into the accommodation recess 3 of the
and a female coupler 11, and are electrically connected to each other via a female coupler 11. Perform various adjustments of the TV video device.Also, when using the hand operated device 2 at hand, connect the energizing cable 14 between the hand operated device 2 pulled out from the accommodation recess 3 and the cable connectors 12 and 13 of the operating device main body 1. It is electrically connected through the machine and remotely controlled through the machine main body 1.

In the above embodiment, a plurality of screen adjustment buttons 8. for everyday operations such as brightness adjustment and contrast adjustment of a projector type TV image device are provided for the operation device main body 1 and the hand operation device 2.
8...and a keyboard 6 for convergence adjustment, but other operation switches such as channel switching, volume adjustment, reception mode switching, etc. can also be provided as necessary, depending on the type and use of the video equipment. It goes without saying that the adjustment functions provided in the operating device main body 1 and the manual operating device 2 can be configured separately depending on the embodiment.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the function-separated remote controller for video equipment of the present invention is configured such that the hand controller is detachably attached to the machine casing of the remote controller body, and is electrically connected.
