Definitions
- the present invention provides a boss (protrusion) in the vicinity of a sharp edge so that it can be used brightly and safely without impairing the appearance, in a case where the design requires the sharp edge to be attached to the outer casing. It relates to a case with a boss that eliminates sharp edges.
- the housing is made so that it can not be sharpened in the outer housing part etc. so that it can be used safely, but there is also a housing in which a sharp edge is generated due to its structure.
- a countermeasure for the shadow that has occurred in the outer casing there is a method of concealing the shadow with other parts so as not to touch, or a method of increasing the inclination angle of the corner so as not to form a sharp shadow.
- a method of providing a convex lip on the inner casing so that the sharp edge of the outer casing is aligned with the height has mainly been taken.
- the method for dealing with the sharp edges generated in the above-mentioned conventional case does not consider the appearance of the sharp edges, and in the design configuration, the sharp case is added to the outer case portion which can be easily touched by the user. It can not be applied to enclosures that have an inevitable configuration. Disclosure of the invention
- the present invention has been made in view of such problems, and in the design configuration, it is necessary to attach a sharp edge to the outer casing which can be easily touched by the user. It is an object of the present invention to provide a housing having a boss that eliminates sharp edges, which can avoid danger due to sharp edges of the housing configured as described above without losing design.
- the casing having a boss for eliminating sharp edges is a casing having a sharp edge in a portion which can be easily touched by a hand as a configuration of the design, and the sharp edge is one point near the sharp edge. It is characterized by having a small boss that can release the concentration power.
- the housing includes a main body and a front panel formed to have a step outside the upper surface and the side surface of the main body, and the sharp edge is formed at a corner of the rear surface of the front panel. It is characterized by being a case such as an audio device.
- a small boss which can release a force concentrated on one point of the sharp edge in the vicinity of the sharp edge. Because it is provided, the risk of injury when the user touches the sharp edge of the case is greatly reduced.
- the bosses are small and inconspicuously located near sharp edges, so they can maintain their appearance as sharp edges on the design.
- the boss can be formed simply by providing the hollow hole in the mold of the housing, which is advantageous in cost.
- FIG. 1A is a perspective view showing the main part of a housing according to an embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 1B is an enlarged view of A in FIG. 1A
- FIG. 2 is a rear view of a front panel
- FIG. Figure 4 Figure 4A is an enlarged front view of the sharp edge portion at the top of the front panel
- Figure 4B is an enlarged side view of the sharp edge portion at the top of the front panel
- Figure 5A is an enlarged front view of the sharp portion at the bottom of the front panel
- Figure 5B Is an enlarged side view of a sharp edge portion at the lower part of the front panel
- FIG. 6 is an explanatory view of an operation of a boss of the sharp edge portion.
- Figure 1 shows the sharp edge formation on the design of a mini component (mini-component) chassis with sharp edges according to the embodiment, and Figures 2 and 3 show details of the back and side of the chassis front panel.
- the housing 1 consists of a rear cabinet (main body) 2 made by pressing a metal plate and a front panel 3 made by resin molding.
- the rear end of the upper surface 32 and the side surface 33 of the front panel 3 is the upper surface 21 of the main body 2 and the side surface 2 2 so that a step of 1.2 mm is formed between the front panel 3 and the main body 2. It is configured to protrude to the outside of the
- the front panel 3 has a panel portion 31, an upper wall 32, side walls 33 and a bottom wall 34, and the main body 2 is on the rear end side of the upper wall 32.
- Engaging pieces 35a to 35d are provided to engage with the upper wall 21 inside.
- Engaging pieces 3 6 a to 3 6 c are provided to engage with the inside of the side wall 22 of 2. Also, the front panel 3 side wall 3 3 upper and lower corner portions 3 6, 3 7 R, the upper wall 32 of the front panel 3 3, the side wall 3 3, the rear end edge of the bottom wall 3 4 3 2 a 3 3 a
- the R of 34a is formed to be approximately 0 for design reasons.
- a tape record mechanism mounting part 52 In the upper part 51 of the panel part 31 of the front panel 3, a tape record mechanism mounting part 52, a cassette holder mounting part 53 and a tape operation button hole for taking out, playing, stopping, pausing, recording, etc. 5 4 a to 5 4 c etc. are provided.
- holes for power supply holes 62 In the middle part 61 below it, holes for power supply holes 62, holes for IR operation buttons 63, bands for switching switching holes 64, holes for mode selection buttons, function selection buttons, etc. 6 5 a to 6
- a hole for tuning knob 66 a hole for volume control knob 67, a hole for low and high-pitched adjustment knobs 6 8 a, 6 8 b, and so on.
- the CD operation port such as the CD outlet port 72, CD playback pause, stop, take out etc.
- the housing 1 is between the front panel 3 and the main body 2 for design reasons 1.
- a step of 2 mm is formed, and the front panel 3 corner 36, 3 7 R and front surface
- the R of the rear end ridges 32a, 33a, 34a of the flannel 3 is formed to be approximately 0, so that it is formed by the rear end of the upper wall 32 of the front panel 3 and the rear end of the side wall 33
- the top end of the upper rear end corner 41 is a sharp edge 43 on the design.
- the front end of the lower rear end corner portion 42 formed by the rear end of the bottom wall 33 and the rear end of the side wall 32 is a boundary on the design.
- Fig. 2 shows an enlarged view of the upper rear end corner A 1 and A 2 of the front panel 3 shown in Fig. 3 in Fig. 4 and Fig. 2 shows a rear end corner B 1 and B of the lower front panel 3 shown in Fig. 2
- An enlarged view of the two parts is shown in Fig.5.
- 45 and 46 are small projections (boss) for eliminating sharp edges called “steps” according to the present invention, and boss 45 forms sharp edge 43.
- a minute hemispherical boss 45 is provided on the inner side of the chassis 4 formed on the rear end corner portion 41 of the front panel 3 for the reason of the design of the housing 1 as shown in FIG.
- the finger touches the sharp edge 4 3
- the finger also touches the boss 4 5 at the same time, so if there is no boss 4 5, the finger power applied to the sharp edge 4 3 1 point is shear 3 4 and the boss 4 5 Due to the presence of the boss 45, the risk of finger injury is greatly reduced, as it is dispersed into two points, as well as the boss 45.
- the boss 45 is extremely small as described above and is inconspicuously located away from the edge surface of the sharp edge 43, it does not affect the design of the housing 1.
- a small linear boss 46 is provided at the lower rear end corner 42 of the front panel 3 forming the sharp edge 44, as in the case of FIG. Even if the finger is touched with the finger 46, the force is dispersed to two points, the sharp edge 4 and the boss 46, and the presence of the boss 46 greatly reduces the risk of finger injury since the one cushion can be used. .
- the chassis 1 was inspected with a sharp tester for the shap edge 4 3 4 4 4 on which the bosses 4 5 4 6 are formed on the inner side, no shaky pocket was detected. Also, since the boss 46 is linear but extremely small, and is inconspicuous on the inside of the sharp edge 44, it does not affect the design of the housing 1.
- the reason for forming the boss 46 linearly is that a mold for forming the bottom 34 of the front panel 3 is configured to be pulled downward.
- a hemispherical shape like the boss 45 is better.
- the bosses 4, 5 and 6 are provided on the rear face of the entire panel so that they can be formed simply by drilling holes or grooves for forming the boss in the mold for molding the front panel 3, which is cost-effective. It is advantageous to Industrial applicability
- the present invention is not limited to this, and can be applied to a housing having a sharp edge on a design.
