Description

明 細 書 ディスプレー部回転および本体部にサブモニター画面表示出来る ノー卜ノ、0ソコン 技術分野 Sub-monitor screen display can be no Bokuno Akira fine document display unit rotation and the main body portion, 0 Sokon technology field
この発明は、 ノ一 卜型パーソナルコンピューターに関するものである。 (以下、 この発明ではノ一 卜パソコンと呼ぶ。 ） 背景技術  The present invention relates to a notebook personal computer. (Hereinafter, it is referred to as a notebook computer in the present invention.)
従来、 ノートパソコンのディスプレー部は開閉だけの動きに限られてお り、 さらにパソコン本体部にも画面が映し出される、 サブモニタ一画面付 きは無かった。 これは次のような場合に大変都合が悪く不便であった。 従来のノー トパソコンは、 出張での営業商談等、 販売ツールとして使わ れる事が年々増えて来たが、 しかし複数の相手客先側にディスプレー部に 表示した、 説得ある説明文やグラフ、 図面、 画像等を見せて商談を進める 場合に、 ノ一トパソコンのディスプレー部をいちいち相手側に向けて行わ なければならず、 また、 セールス側は操作をする場合には、 客先から自分 の方に向けて対面して操作する事になる。  In the past, the display of a notebook computer was limited to just opening and closing movements, and there was no single sub-monitor screen with a screen displayed on the personal computer. This was very inconvenient and inconvenient in the following cases. Conventional notebook PCs are increasingly used as sales tools for business negotiations on business trips, etc., but persuasive explanations, graphs, drawings, When proceeding with business negotiations by showing images, etc., the display section of the notebook PC must be directed to the other party, and when operating the sales side, the customer must point to the customer from himself. You will be face to face.
つまりその度、 客先側の視線や話をそらす事にもなり、 特に複数相手の 商談には、 煮詰まる話を折る事にもなりかねないので、 販売ツールとして の果たす役割や価値がなくなるのである。  In other words, each time it distracts the eyes and talks of the customer side, and especially when dealing with multiple parties, it may break the boiled talk, so the role and value of the sales tool will be lost. .
本発明は、 これらの欠点を除くためになされたものである。 発明の開示 The present invention has been made to eliminate these disadvantages. Disclosure of the invention

A sub-monitor screen (2) is provided on the upper surface of the computer body (1) in addition to a keyboard, mouse touch switch, and click touch panel. A hinge sabot (4) is provided at the rear end of the personal computer body (1). Is fixedly provided. Furthermore, it is fixed at one end of the edge of the display part (3), that is, in the center of the lower part when viewed from the front of the display, at the part of the rotating hinge (5) that opens vertically in the opening and closing direction. Insert the rotating shaft (6) provided below the rotating hinge (5) into the bearing (7) at the rear end of the PC body (1). As a result, the display part (3) and the PC body (1) are mounted.

本発明は、 以上のような構成よりなる、ディスプレー部回転および本体 部にサブモニタ一画面表示出来るノ一卜パソコンである。 図面の簡単な説明  The present invention is a notebook personal computer having the above configuration and capable of rotating the display unit and displaying one screen of the sub monitor on the main unit. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES
第 1図は、 この発明にかかる好ましい回転するディスプレー部と  FIG. 1 shows a preferred rotating display section according to the present invention.

FIG. 2 is a side view of a partial cross section showing the opened and rotated state of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing the use of the present invention in business negotiations. FIG. 4 is a hinge mounting cross-sectional view showing a relationship between a display unit, a personal computer body, and a rotating hinge. BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
本発明に於いて、 図 1、 図 2によれば一番重要な部分は回転ヒンジ (5) である。 ディスプレー部 （3) の下縁部中央に固定されるのは、 ヒンジの開閉側であり、 これによりディスプレー部 （ 3 ) がパソコン 本体部 （1) に二つ折りに閉じたり、 大きく開いたりする事ができるの であり、 ここまでの動きは従来のノ一卜パソコンと同じである。  In the present invention, according to FIGS. 1 and 2, the most important part is the rotating hinge (5). It is the hinged side that is fixed to the center of the lower edge of the display part (3). This allows the display part (3) to be folded in two or open widely in the PC body (1). The movement so far is the same as a conventional notebook PC.
しかし、 回転ヒンジ （5) は下方向側に回転軸 （6) を設けてあるので、 これをパソコン本体部 （1) の後端の軸受 （7) に挿入して、 つまりディ スプレー部 (3) を装着する事により、 手で簡単にディスプレー部 （3) を回転させる事ができるのである。 なお、 回転角度は 180° あれば十分 であり、 回路結線の捩れの立場からも適当と思われる。 また、 パソコン本 体部 （1) の後端にヒンジサポー卜 （4) を設ける事により、 回転ヒンジ (5) が 0° 角度に戻った時に、 ヒンジ両端をしつかりと保持固定して、 そのままノ一 卜パソコンを抱えて移動しても、 容易に、 ディスプレー部 (3) とパソコン本体部 （1) は脱落しない構造である。 また、 サブ乇ニ ター画面 （2) をパソコン本体部 （1) のキーボー ド側に設ける。 これも 重要な手段であり、 商談相手側に向いて L、るディスプレ—画面が確認でき る構造になっている。  However, since the rotating hinge (5) has a rotating shaft (6) on the lower side, it is inserted into the bearing (7) at the rear end of the PC main body (1). ), The display (3) can be easily rotated by hand. It should be noted that a rotation angle of 180 ° is sufficient, which seems to be appropriate from the standpoint of circuit connection twist. In addition, by providing a hinge support (4) at the rear end of the main body (1) of the personal computer, when the rotating hinge (5) returns to an angle of 0 °, both ends of the hinge are firmly held and fixed. The display unit (3) and the PC main unit (1) do not fall off easily even when traveling with a personal computer. The sub monitor screen (2) is provided on the keyboard side of the PC main unit (1). This is also an important means, and it has a structure that allows you to check the display screen facing the business partner.
本発明は以上のような構造であり、 普段はノートパソコンとして、 情報 処理を行うが、 出張しての複数の顧客を相手に商談等を行う時には絶大な る威力を発揮するのである。 以下、 客先等のステージセッ 卜での使用方法 を説明する。 図 3のごとくディスプレー部 （3) を適当なる角度に、 手で 回して複数の相手顧客に向けて、 商談その他の説明を行うだけで良い。 此 のときに説明側担当者には、 パソコン本体部 （1) の上面キ—ボ— ド側に 設けられたサブモニタ一画面 （2) にディスプレー部 （3) の画面が写し 出されているので、 それを見ながらノ一 トパソコンを動かさず、 説明しな がら次々と操作を行い、 スムーズに P R画像、 図面またはグラフ、 文章 等を相手に印象づける事ができる。 また、 商談等が終われば、 ディスプレ —部 （3 ) を手で回して、 ヒンジサポー ト （4 ) まで回して、 回転ヒンジ ( 5 ) の両端が保持されたら、 ディスプレー部 （3 ) を下にして折曲げて パソコン本体部 （1 ) に閉じれば、 終了である。 The present invention is structured as described above, and normally performs information processing as a notebook computer, but exerts tremendous power when conducting business negotiations with a plurality of customers on a business trip. The following describes how to use it in a stage set at a customer site. As shown in Fig. 3, it is only necessary to turn the display unit (3) at an appropriate angle by hand and give business negotiations and other explanations to multiple customers. At this time, the person in charge on the explanation side has shown the screen of the display unit (3) on the sub-monitor screen (2) provided on the top keyboard side of the PC main unit (1). While watching it, do not move the notebook computer and do not explain By performing operations one after another, it is possible to smoothly impress the PR image, drawing or graph, text, etc. to the other party. After the negotiations, turn the display part (3) by hand, turn the hinge support (4), and turn the display part (3) down when both ends of the rotating hinge (5) are held. Fold it and close it in the PC body (1) to finish.
また、 ディスプレー部 （3 ) を上にして閉じる事もできる。 これは P D A等の使い方に見られるように、 ペンタッチで画面に直接入出力する、 キ 一ボー ドを使わない操作もおこなう必要がある場合に便利である。 このよ うに多機能パソコンとして使用できる。 産業上の利用可能性  It can also be closed with the display (3) facing up. This is useful when you need to perform operations that do not use the keyboard, such as using a PDA, such as directly touching the screen with a pen touch. In this way, it can be used as a multifunctional personal computer. Industrial applicability
以上のように、本発明はノー 卜パソコンの枠を超えた、 販売ツールとし て顧客に対する営業において、絶大なる威力を発揮するので従来のノー 卜 パソコンにたいしては、 特徵ある差別化に成功した。 また、 従来のノー ト パソコンを利用して、 技術的には簡単に本発明を生産することもできる。  As described above, the present invention exerts tremendous power in sales to customers as a sales tool that goes beyond the scope of a notebook personal computer, and has succeeded in special differentiation from the conventional notebook personal computer. Further, the present invention can be technically easily produced using a conventional notebook personal computer.
