Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a technical field concerning an output device and an operation unit cover.
  • the present disclosure relates to a technical field in which the operation unit cover is formed to have a given shape by using rubber materials to thereby prevent the operation unit cover from being broken.
  • an output device which houses a portable device such as a music reproduction device and an image reproduction device in an internal space and which outputs audio and images outputted from the housed portable device to the outside.
  • the output device is often used under environment of high temperature such as outdoor or indoor environment.
  • environment of high temperature such as outdoor or indoor environment.
  • breaking of the operation unit cover, the deformation of the lid body and so on are more liable to occur when the amount of stretch in the operation unit cover is further increased due to variation of temperature.
  • a frame-shaped waterproof rib is provided on the outer peripheral side of the housing rib in the case body
  • the operation unit cover includes a base portion protruding outward from an edge opposite to the holding surface portion in the circumferential surface portion, a frame-shaped inner protruding ridge rising from the base portion and positioned on the outer peripheral side of the circumferential surface portion and a frame-shaped outer protruding ridge rising from the base portion and positioned on the outer peripheral side of the inner protruding ridge, and a portion between the inner protruding ridge and the outer protruding ridge on a surface where the inner protruding ridge and the outer protruding ridge are not formed in the base portion of the operation unit cover is pressed onto the waterproof rib in the locked state.
  • FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a case body in a state in which a nonslip sheet is separated
  • Buckles 7 , 7 are pivotally supported at right and left portions on both sides of the case body 2 respectively on the upper side.
  • the buckles 7 , 7 can pivot between a locked position (refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 ) and a lock release position (refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 ), and portions other than front end portions are housed in the cutout portions for arrangement 2 a , 2 a respectively in the locked position.
  • the locking claw 9 is formed in a triangular shape so as to be elastically deform with respect to the body 8 , in which an locking protrusion 10 protruding backward is provided at a back surface of a tip portion (refer to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 ).
  • the locking protrusion 10 includes a first inclined surface 10 a positioned at the tip portion side and inclining so as to be displaced backward as coming close to the body 8 and a second inclined surface 10 b continuing from the first inclined surface 10 a and inclining so as to be displaced forward as coming close to the body 8 .
  • the housing rib 13 includes an edge surface 13 a whose outer surface faces the front, an outer peripheral surface 13 b continuing from an outer edge of the edge surface 13 a and an inner peripheral surface 13 c continuing from an inner edge of the edge surface 13 a .
  • recesses for removal 16 a , 16 a are respectively formed.
  • the recesses for removal 16 a , 16 are communicated with the housing recess 14 and the edge surface portion 13 a is formed in an approximately arc shape which is convex backward.
  • the to-be-locked piece 23 can be elastically deformed, and a to-be-locked protrusion 24 protruding forward is provided at a front surface of a tip portion (refer to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 ).
  • the to-be-locked protrusion 24 includes a first inclined surface 24 a positioned on the tip side and inclining so as to be displaced forward as drawing away from the tip and a second inclined surface 24 b continuing from the first inclined surface 24 a and inclining so as to be displaced backward as drawing away from the tip.
  • the inner protruding ridge 33 b is positioned with a certain clearance with respect to the circumferential surface portion 32 outside the circumferential surface portion 32 and the outer protruding ridge 33 c is positioned with a certain clearance with respect to the inner protruding ridge 33 b outside the inner protruding ridge 33 b .
  • the first to-be-attached protrusions 33 d , 33 d are positioned above and below the outer protruding ridge 33 c so as to apart from the outer protruding ridge 33 c and extend in the right and left direction.
  • the second to-be-attached protrusions 33 e , 33 e , . . . are positioned at right and left sides of the outer protruding ridge 33 c so as to apart from the outer protruding ridge 33 c and extend upward and downward.
  • the flange portion 33 of the operation unit cover 30 is in a state in which a back surface of the base portion 33 a of the flange portion 33 is pressed on the front surface 2 b of the case body 2 . At this time, a portion between the inner protruding ridge 33 b and the outer protruding ridge 33 c of the base portion 33 a of the flange portion 33 is pressed on the waterproof rib 19 , which gives waterproof property of the housing recess 14 .
  • the portable device 500 In the state in which the lid body 3 is pivoted to be in the closed position, the portable device 500 is held by portions other than part of the front surface portion 31 of the operation unit cover 30 , for example, by the holding surface portion 31 a or by the holding surface portion 31 a and part of the inclined surface portions 31 b , 31 c (refer to FIG. 14 ). Therefore, the movement of the portable device 500 in the housing recess 14 is restricted and the stable housing state of the portable device 500 in the housing recess 14 can be secured.
