Then, the optical display of the optical mode display portion was displayed in the optical viewfinder in the clip body.

In the conventional camera-integrated VTR, since the camera unit, the VTR unit, and the viewfinder unit are almost integrated with each other, when considering the camera unit compact and convenient to carry, the camera-integrated VTR forms a main body integrating the camera unit VTR unit. On the other hand, it is conceivable to form a clip body in which the optical viewfinder and the number of batteries are accommodated, and to use the images by combining the optical viewfinder and the battery.

This is because it is convenient to carry during non-imaging.

However, if the optical viewfinder is separated from the main body in this manner, the operation mode display of the camera unit and the VTR unit cannot be optically displayed within this optical viewfinder.

Of course, it can be displayed by forming a plurality of contacts between the main body and the clip body when they are combined with each other and arranging light emitting elements such as LEDs in the optical subfinder. It becomes easy, there is a problem that the reliability is lowered.

The optical mode display part 31 is provided in the clip body engagement surface 3f of the main body 1, the light intensity part 34 is provided in the main body engagement surface 4e of the clip body 2, The display of the optical mode display unit 31 is to be displayed in the optical viewfinder 12.

In the optical mode display part 31 of the main body 1, the displayed mode display is displayed in the viewfinder 12 in the clip body 2 as it is.

With reference to the following drawings, a camera integrated VTR according to the present invention will be described.

The camera-integrated VTR according to the present invention is constituted by separating the main body 1 and the clip body 2, and their cases 3 and 4 together with the main body 1 and the clip body 2 are formed of a synthetic resin. It is.

Therefore, the main body case 3 is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the clip body case 4 also forms an almost rectangular parallelepiped shape, but the upper palm 4c extends from the upper surface 4f to the right surface 4f and the lower surface 4d of the right hand of the imager. It is formed with curved surface that goes well with.

In the main body case 3, the camera section 5 and the VTR section 6 are housed, respectively. Further, the main body case 3 has a rectangular window hole 8 formed in the upper portion of the front surface 3a. On the other hand, the window frame 47 is fixed to the position slightly receding from the front surface 3a, and the objective lens 7 of the camera portion 5 is located outside the window frame 47a formed on the window frame plate 47.

Thus, the dustproof cover 9 is fixed to the rear surface side of the front surface 3a so as to be freely moved up and down by a suitable means, and the upper edge of the front surface 3a is fixed to the front surface 3a. It protrudes slightly outward from the window hole 8 to form the application portion 10 of the cover 9. In addition, the cover 9 is slid downwards as shown in FIG. 1, i.e., the cover is open, and as shown in FIG. It stays in the form of a click at the location.

The cover 11 is broken so as to have the same contour as the main body case 3 from the upper surface 3c to the left side 3e of the main body case 3, which is hinged at the lower edge thereof. It is rotated freely, and it is comprised so that a tape cassette (not shown) can be attached and detached freely with respect to the cassette mounting part (not shown) of the VTR part 6 in the state which the cover 11 opened. .

On the other hand, in the clip body 2, the optical viewfinder 12 is assembled in the clip body case 4 in the upper part. (13) is an objective lens, which extends outward from the window hole 14 formed in the upper portion of the front surface 4a of the clip body case 4.

Thus, an eye cap 15 formed of an elastic material is fixed to the upper end of the rear face 4b of the clip case 4, and an eyepiece (not shown) is fixed to the eye cap, so that the objective lens 13 An optical system is formed between the voltage lens and the optical viewfinder 12. The optical viewfinder 12 is completely independent of the optical system by the objective lens 7 of the camera section 5.

The battery 16 is detachably stored in the clip case 4. 17 is an entrance and exit of the battery 16, and is formed on the front surface 4a of the clip body case 4. As shown in FIG.

The cover 18 is configured to automatically rise to cover the doorway 17 by inserting the battery into the interior and withdrawing the battery. In addition, in FIG. 2, the intermediate state in which the cover 8 arises is shown.

Further, the band 19 is fixed to the clip case 4 so as to face the right side surface 4f, and the imager inserts the right hand between the band 19 and the clip case 4 so that the clip body is held. The case 4 can be grasped.

The right side surface 3f of the main body case 3 and the left side surface 4e of the clip body case 4 are engaging sides in which both of them abut each other, and coupling means are formed on their respective surfaces. Referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the hooks 20 are formed in the L-shape at a plurality of positions (four positions in the figure) on the right side 3f of the main body case 3, respectively. It is fixed in the facing state, on the other hand, the recessed part 21 is formed in the left side surface 4e of the clip body case 4 facing the said hook 20, and each recessed part ( The engagement recesses 22 which advance in the clip body case 4 to the front in succession to 21 are formed, respectively.

Therefore, when the respective hooks 20 of the main body case 3 are now inserted into the recesses 21 of the clip body case 4, the right side surface 3f of the main body case 3 and the clip body case ( The left side 4e of 4) is brought into contact with each other, and in this state, the front end of each hook 20 is engaged with the recessed recess 22 in the recess 21 by shifting the main body case 3 forward. ), The main body case 3 and the clip body case 4 are combined. That is, the main body 1 and the clip body 2 are combined.

The locking means described below is provided for locking in the engaged state. That is, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 5, the lever 23 which can slide to the left-right direction is fixed to the back surface 4b of the clip body case 4, On the other hand, as shown in FIG. As described above, the spring 24 always slides toward the main body case 3, and the tip end of the locking portion 25 connected to and contacting the lever 23 protrudes into the recess 21, and the locking portion 25 It is configured to prevent the hook 20 from moving (sliding) in the recess 21 due to.

Therefore, when the main body case 3 and the clip body case 4 are engaged, when the hook 20 enters into the recess 21, the locking portion 25 retreats against the spring 24, Again, as shown in FIG. 6, once the hook 20 enters into the engagement recess 22, the locking portion 25 protrudes into the recess 21 to lock the hook 20. FIG. . Such locking means 26 may be provided in any one recess 21.

In the state of FIG. 6, in the state where the lever 23 is moved in the opposite direction to the main body case 3 against the spring 24, the main body case 3 is relatively displaced to the rear, thereby causing the main body case 3 to shift. ) And the clip case 4 can be separated from each other.

In addition, a plurality of electrical contacts 27 made of a metal plate are formed on the above-described engagement side, that is, the right side 3f of the main body case 3, and on the left side 4e of the clip body case 40, respectively. A plurality of electrical contacts 28 composed of a conductive plate are fixed to the contacts 27 of the contact plates. When the main body case 3 and the clip body case 4 are coupled as described above, the respective contact points ( 27 and 28 are in electrical contact with each other, and a power supply current is supplied from the battery 16 in the clip body case 4 to the camera portion 5 and the VTR portion 6 in the body case 3, respectively. In addition, the rear face 4b of the clip case 4 has a push button 30 for trigger switching, and the signal here is also a signal in the main body 1 through any of the above-described contacts 27 and 28. In practice, this push button 30 is in the standby state at the first first push. As is, and then the tape is run at a push of the second time, the recording is performed.

On the right side 3f (coupling side) of the main body case 3, as shown in FIG. 4, an optical mode display unit 31 composed of a plurality of light emitting elements (four in this example) is provided. On the clip body case 4 and the left side surface 4e (engagement side), as is apparent from FIG. 5, the light intensity portion 34 is located at a position opposite to the optical mode display portion 31 of the body case 3 described above. Is formed. That is, a plurality of (four in this example) window holes 32 are provided to face each light emitting element of the optical mode display unit 31, and again, at a focal position in the optical system of the optical viewfinder 12 in a rectangular shape. Mask 33 is disposed (see FIG. 3), and each light conduit 35 made of plastic or glass between the four corner portions of the mask 33 and the respective window holes 32 described above. (Optical fiber) is installed. That is, one end of the light guide plate 35 is fitted into the window hole 32 so that its end face directly faces the optical mode display portion 31 of the main body case 3, and the other end is the window hole formed at the four corners of the mask 33. It fits tightly inside. FIG. 7 shows an example of the image seen when the viewfinder 12 is viewed, and the end face of each light pipe 35 is located outside the viewing frame 36 of the mask 33.

Therefore, when a light emitting element such as an LED constituting the optical mode display unit 31 of the main body 1 lights up in accordance with the mode state of the camera unit 5 and the VTR unit 6 in the main body 1, Lighting is displayed in the optical viewfinder 12 respectively.

Next, an example of mode display will be described. In particular, in Fig. 7, reference numerals a to d are indicated for convenience of explanation.

First, (a) is turned on when the color temperature is low as in the case of imaging in a room lamp. In this case, the color filter in the optical system may be switched by the camera unit 5 in the main body 1. In FIG. 2, shown 37 indicates the changeover lever and moves up and down.

(b) shows the standby state. That is, when pushing the push button 30 mentioned above once, (b) turns on. When the push button 30 is pushed again, (b) goes out, and (c) lights up to indicate that the image is being captured (recording). (d) indicates the light quantity shortage state. In this case, illumination may be performed. Further, the means for emitting light from the optical mode display unit 31 to the respective light emitting elements in the above-described respective modes of the camera unit 5 and the VTR unit 6 in the main body 1 is known, and thus the detailed description thereof. Omit. Moreover, as those light emitting elements, those with different colors can also be used.

In the main body 1, the camera part 5 switches to three positions of telephoto, standard, and wide angle by advancing and retracting the objective lens 7. The advancing and retracting of the lens 7 stores the tilt 38 in a screw groove 39 formed on the outer circumferential surface of the tilt 38 of the lens 7, and guides it back and forth. The protrusion (not shown) which protrudes to the inner surface of the fixing cylinder to be fitted is engaged, and as shown in FIG. 2, the upper surface of the main body case 3 slides up and down in all of the left surfaces 3e. The focus switching lever 40 is provided, and as shown in FIG. 8, a part of the connecting plate 41 fixed to the rear surface of the switching lever 40 extends in front of the tilt 38, and With respect to the cut portion 43 formed in the extension portion 42, the projections 44 projecting on the front surface of the tilting wheel 38 are engaged with each other, and accordingly, tilting is performed by the upper, middle, and lower movements of the switching lever 40. 38 is advanced, and the optical crab of the camera unit 5 is in a wide angle, standard, and a telephoto state.

A link 45 is provided below the tilting 38, and the link 45 penetrates the shaft 46 and is engaged to the rear of the window hole 8 of the main body case 3. This window frame 47 is fixed freely to the rear face of [shown in FIG. 1]. Thus, one end of the link 45 is bent, the bent portion 45c is lightly engaged with the transmission hole 42a of the extension portion 42 of the connecting plate 41, and the switching lever 40 is neutral. When in the (standard) position, the link 45 is almost horizontal, as shown by the solid line in FIG.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8, the joining parts 48a and 48b are formed in the antivibration cover 9 at the lower left and right sides, and the dustproof cover 9 is moved upwards, and FIG. As shown in Fig. 2, when the front of the lens 7 is shielded, these two fitting portions 48a and 48b are folded with the left and right lower ends 45a and 45b of the respective links 45, or slightly spaced apart. It is supposed to face each other.

Therefore, when the switching lever 40 is moved upward from the standard (neutral) position, the state becomes wide angle, and the link 45 is inclined as indicated by a dashed line. Therefore, when the cover 9 is closed in this state, the joining portion 48a is brought into contact with the lower end 45a of the link 45, which is rotated to a substantially horizontal position shown in solid line. As a result, the connecting plate 41, that is, the switching lever 40 returns to the neutral position, that is, the lens 7 also returns to the standard position.

In addition, when the switching lever 40 is moved downward while the cover of the cover 9 is open, the link 45 is inclined in the opposite direction to the above-mentioned and becomes a telephoto state. When the cover 9 is closed in this state, the fitting portion 48b engages with the lower end 45b of the link 45 and returns the link 45 to a substantially horizontal state. That is, it returns to the neutral position to the switching lever 40. FIG. In this case, it is also possible to push up the lower edge of the extension part 42 of the connection plate 41 by the joining part 48b.

Thus, the optical system of the camera part 5 can be set to a standard state by closing the unused cover 9, Therefore, imaging is performed in a standard state unless the switching lever 40 is operated at the time of subsequent imaging. Done.

In the main body case 3, as shown in FIG. 8, the cover open detection switch 50 is fixed to the lower side of the dustproof cover 9, and the switch 50 in the state in which the cover 9 is opened. Is supposed to turn on.

The switch 50 is connected in series with each other switch 51a, 51b, 51c, ... as shown in FIG.

These switches 51a, 51b, ... are, for example, a switch for detecting erasing prevention of a tape, an operation switch by the push button 30 described above, and the like. Thus, the DC power supply terminal 52 is grounded through the resistor 53 and the series circuit of each of the switches 50, 51a, 51b, ... 51n described above, and the series circuit of each switch and the resistor 53 The connection point controls the various kinds of operations of the camera unit 5 and the VTR unit 6, and the computer 54 does not operate when the DC terminal (voltage) is added to the control terminal 55.

Therefore, when each switch is turned on, that is, when all the recording conditions are satisfied, when the control terminal 55 of the computer 54 becomes the ground potential, the computer 54 is brought into an operating state.

According to the present invention described above, in spite of separating the main body 1 and the clip body 2 from each other, the respective modes on the main body 1 side in the viewfinder 12 in the clip body 2 are changed. There is a characteristic that can be monitored. Therefore, in general, it is conceivable to arrange a plurality of light emitting elements in the viewfinder 12 and to connect them to the electronic circuit in the main body 1 via a plurality of electrical contacts, but in such a configuration, the viewfinder ( 12) There is a concern that the whole will be enlarged, and furthermore, there is a fear of lack of reliability due to the use of electrical contacts.

However, according to the present invention, the above-mentioned problems can be easily avoided, and therefore, the attaching / detaching configuration of the main body 1 and the clip body 2 can be simplified, and the electrical wiring can only be led in the main body 1. It has a feature that can be put out.
