Description

本発明は、開閉可能とされた蓋部材が設けられた電子機器に関する。   The present invention relates to an electronic device provided with a lid member that can be opened and closed.

電子機器では、例えば、電力の供給源となる電池を装填可能に収納する収納室としての電池室を備えている。この電子機器では、電池室が筐体を開口する長尺な収納口を有し、その収納口の開口縁部の一端に設定された開閉軸線回りに回転可能に一端が支持されて蓋部材が設けられているものがある。その電子機器では、蓋部材を開けて開口縁部を露出する(開蓋状態とする)ことにより電池室を開放することができ、蓋部材を閉めて開口縁部を遮蔽する(閉蓋状態とする)ことにより電池室を閉鎖することができる(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   The electronic device includes, for example, a battery chamber as a storage chamber in which a battery serving as a power supply source can be loaded. In this electronic device, the battery chamber has a long storage opening that opens the housing, and one end is supported so as to be rotatable around an opening / closing axis set at one end of the opening edge of the storage opening, and the lid member is Some are provided. In the electronic device, the battery chamber can be opened by opening the lid member to expose the opening edge (to be in the open state), and closing the lid member to shield the opening edge (with the closed state). By doing so, the battery chamber can be closed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

ところで、上記した電子機器では、蓋部材を閉蓋状態で維持するために、蓋部材を開口縁部に押し当てた状態で当該蓋部材を固定するロック機構が設ける必要がある。このロック機構は、使い勝手を向上させる観点から、単一の操作部の操作により蓋部材の閉蓋状態での固定とその解除の切り替え操作が可能であることが望ましい。このため、ロック機構は、蓋部材における回転可能に支持された一端とは反対側の他端に爪部を設けるとともに、開口縁部の他端に溝部を設け、操作部の操作により爪部を変位させる構成とすることが考えられる。このロック機構では、爪部と溝部とが互いに引っ掛けられる(係合状態)ことで蓋部材を閉蓋状態で固定し、その係合状態が解除されることで閉蓋状態での固定を解除して蓋部材を開蓋状態とすることを可能とする。   By the way, in the electronic device described above, in order to maintain the lid member in the closed state, it is necessary to provide a lock mechanism that fixes the lid member in a state where the lid member is pressed against the opening edge. From the viewpoint of improving usability, it is desirable that the locking mechanism can be switched between fixing and releasing the lid member in the closed state by operating a single operation unit. For this reason, the locking mechanism is provided with a claw at the other end of the lid member opposite to the one end that is rotatably supported, and a groove at the other end of the opening edge. It is conceivable to adopt a configuration for displacement. In this lock mechanism, the claw portion and the groove portion are hooked together (engaged state) to fix the lid member in the closed state, and the engagement state is released to release the fixation in the closed state. Thus, the lid member can be in the open state.

ここで、電子機器では、収納された電池の遮蔽および保護の観点から、ロック機構により閉蓋状態で固定された際、電池室の開口縁部に対して蓋部材を偏りなく押し当てた状態であることが望ましい。ところが、上記した構成の電子機器では、蓋部材の他端と開口縁部の他端とをロック機構で固定するものであることから、蓋部材における長尺方向での中間位置を適切に押し当てた状態とすることが困難である。これは、蓋部材が長尺な形状であるとともにその一端が電池室の開口縁部の一端に回転可能に取り付けられていることから、蓋部材が長尺方向の両端位置で開口縁部に押し当てられた状態となることによる。   Here, in the electronic device, from the viewpoint of shielding and protecting the stored battery, when the cover is fixed in a closed state by the lock mechanism, the cover member is pressed against the opening edge of the battery chamber without deviation. It is desirable to be. However, in the electronic apparatus having the above-described configuration, the other end of the lid member and the other end of the opening edge are fixed by a lock mechanism, so that an intermediate position in the longitudinal direction of the lid member is appropriately pressed. It is difficult to maintain a state. This is because the lid member has a long shape and one end thereof is rotatably attached to one end of the opening edge of the battery chamber, so that the lid member is pushed to the opening edge at both end positions in the long direction. By becoming a hit state.

本発明は、上記の事情に鑑みて為されたもので、簡単な操作で蓋部材を適切に閉蓋状態で固定することのできるロック機構を有する電子機器を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide an electronic device having a lock mechanism that can appropriately fix a lid member in a closed state by a simple operation.

この電池室20は、筐体11の底部(Y軸方向負側)の一部を開口して撮像装置10(筐体11)の外方に通じる収納口25を有する。この収納口25は、実施例1では、電池21の装填箇所と記録媒体22の装填箇所とHDMI端子23とUSB端子24とを取り囲むものとされており、Z軸方向の長さ寸法に比してX軸方向の長さ寸法が大きい長尺な形状とされている。このため、電池室20では、収納口25を経て、電池21の装填や、記録媒体22の装填や、HDMI端子23への接続や、USB端子24への接続を行うことができる。この収納口25は、蓋部材としての電池蓋30により遮蔽可能とされている。   The battery chamber 20 has a storage opening 25 that opens a part of the bottom (Y-axis direction negative side) of the housing 11 and communicates with the outside of the imaging device 10 (housing 11). In the first embodiment, the storage port 25 surrounds the loading position of the battery 21, the loading position of the recording medium 22, the HDMI terminal 23, and the USB terminal 24, and is compared with the length dimension in the Z-axis direction. Thus, the shape is a long shape with a large length in the X-axis direction. Therefore, in the battery chamber 20, the battery 21, the recording medium 22, the HDMI terminal 23, and the USB terminal 24 can be connected via the storage port 25. The storage opening 25 can be shielded by a battery lid 30 as a lid member.

電池蓋30は、全体に平板状を呈する。以下の説明では、後述する閉蓋状態(図1参照)の電池蓋30を基準として、X軸方向を電池蓋30の長尺方向とし、Z軸方向を電池蓋30の短尺方向または幅方向とし、Y軸方向を電池蓋30の厚さ方向とする。このため、電池蓋30の長尺方向は、収納口25(電池室20)の長尺方向となり、電池蓋30の短尺方向は、収納口25(電池室20)の短尺方向となり、電池蓋30の厚さ方向は、電池室20の深さ方向(奥行き方向)となる。   The battery lid 30 has a flat plate shape as a whole. In the following description, the X-axis direction is the long direction of the battery cover 30 and the Z-axis direction is the short direction or the width direction of the battery cover 30 with reference to the battery cover 30 in a closed state (see FIG. 1) described later. The Y-axis direction is the thickness direction of the battery lid 30. For this reason, the long direction of the battery cover 30 is the long direction of the storage port 25 (battery chamber 20), and the short direction of the battery cover 30 is the short direction of the storage port 25 (battery chamber 20). The thickness direction is the depth direction (depth direction) of the battery chamber 20.

この電池蓋30は、収納口25における長尺方向(X軸方向)での一端に設定され短尺方向(Z軸方向)に延びる開閉軸線(図2の符号Am参照)回りに回転可能に、筐体11の底面(Y軸方向の負側の面)に設けられている。電池蓋30は、実施例1では、筐体11の底面側に設けられた蓋収容空間26に収容可能な大きさ寸法とされている。この電池蓋30は、収納口25を遮蔽した状態(閉蓋状態)では、図1に示すように、蓋収容空間26に収容されて筐体11の底面の一部を形成する。この蓋収容空間26は、図2に示すように、電池室20の下方(Y軸方向の負側(図2を正面視すると上側))であって、その電池室20と筐体11の外方との間に設けられている。このため、実施例1では、電池室20の収納口25は、蓋収容空間26の奥壁(Y軸方向の正側の位置に存在する壁部)を開口しており、蓋収容空間26を介して撮像装置10(筐体11)の外方に通じている。   The battery cover 30 is set at one end in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the storage port 25 and is rotatable about an opening / closing axis (see reference numeral Am in FIG. 2) extending in the short direction (Z-axis direction). It is provided on the bottom surface of the body 11 (the negative surface in the Y-axis direction). In the first embodiment, the battery lid 30 has a size that can be accommodated in the lid accommodating space 26 provided on the bottom surface side of the housing 11. In a state where the storage opening 25 is shielded (closed state), the battery cover 30 is housed in the cover housing space 26 to form a part of the bottom surface of the housing 11 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the lid housing space 26 is below the battery chamber 20 (on the negative side in the Y-axis direction (upward when viewed from the front in FIG. 2)) and outside the battery chamber 20 and the housing 11. It is provided between For this reason, in the first embodiment, the storage opening 25 of the battery chamber 20 opens the back wall of the lid housing space 26 (the wall portion present on the positive side in the Y-axis direction). To the outside of the imaging device 10 (housing 11).

筐体11には、蓋収容空間26に開口する4つの受入溝27(図2、図11および図16参照)と、蓋収容空間26に開口する受入穴28(図11、図14および図15参照)と、が設けられている。各受入溝27は、蓋収容空間26において、閉蓋状態(図1参照)の電池蓋30を取り囲む内壁面のうち、短尺方向(Z軸方向)の位置に存在する内壁面のそれぞれに、その短尺方向(Z軸方向)で対を為して設けられている(図11参照)。この各受入溝27は、後述する引掛部材52の引掛爪部52bを受け入れることを許容するとともに、受け入れた引掛爪部52bに対して電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)の両側で接することが可能とされている(図13参照)。このため、各受入溝27は、受け入れた引掛爪部52bが厚さ方向(Y軸方向)に移動することを制限する。この対を為す受入溝27は、蓋収容空間26におけるX軸方向(長尺方向)での中間位置であって互いに異なる2つの箇所に設けられている(図11参照)。このため、筐体11では、蓋収容空間26の短尺方向(Z軸方向)に存在する2つの内壁面に、それぞれ2つの受入溝27がX軸方向(長尺方向)に間隔を置いて直列されている(図2および図11参照)。   The housing 11 has four receiving grooves 27 (see FIGS. 2, 11, and 16) that open into the lid housing space 26, and a receiving hole 28 (see FIGS. 11, 14, and 15) that opens into the lid housing space 26. For example). Each receiving groove 27 is formed in each of the inner wall surfaces that surround the battery lid 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 1) in the lid housing space 26 and that exists in the short direction (Z-axis direction). They are provided in pairs in the short direction (Z-axis direction) (see FIG. 11). Each of the receiving grooves 27 allows a hooking claw portion 52b of a hooking member 52 to be described later to be received, and contacts the received hooking claw portion 52b on both sides in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. (See FIG. 13). For this reason, each receiving groove 27 restrict | limits that the received hook nail | claw part 52b moves to a thickness direction (Y-axis direction). The receiving grooves 27 forming the pair are provided at two different positions in the lid housing space 26 in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction) and different from each other (see FIG. 11). For this reason, in the housing 11, two receiving grooves 27 are arranged in series on the two inner wall surfaces existing in the short direction (Z-axis direction) of the lid housing space 26 with a space in the X-axis direction (long direction). (See FIG. 2 and FIG. 11).

この各受入溝27は、実施例1では、図13に示すように、電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)で見て、一方の端部が他方の端部よりも電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で見た間隔が小さく設定されている。この各受入溝27では、後述する引掛爪部52bが外蓋部32から突出される際の移動方向における前側(図10および図11の矢印A2参照)を、X軸方向での一方の端部側として設定されている。各受入溝27では、電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で見て小さく設定された間隔が、後述する引掛部材52の引掛爪部52bの厚さ寸法に等しく設定されている。   As shown in FIG. 13, each receiving groove 27 in the first embodiment has one end portion of the battery lid 30 that is longer than the other end portion when viewed in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. The interval seen in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) is set small. In each receiving groove 27, the front side (see arrow A2 in FIGS. 10 and 11) in the moving direction when a hooking claw portion 52b to be described later protrudes from the outer lid portion 32 is one end portion in the X-axis direction. Set as side. In each receiving groove 27, the interval set small when viewed in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery cover 30 is set equal to the thickness dimension of a hooking claw portion 52 b of the hooking member 52 described later.

受入穴28は、蓋収容空間26において、閉蓋状態(図1参照)の電池蓋30を取り囲む内壁面のうち、長尺方向の他端側(X軸方向の負側)の位置に存在する内壁面に設けられている(図11、図14および図15参照)。この受入穴28は、後述する操作部材51の引掛片部53を受け入れることを許容するとともに、受け入れた引掛片部53に対して電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)の負側で接することが可能とされている。このため、受入穴28は、受け入れた引掛片部53がY軸方向(厚さ方向)の負側に移動することを制限する。   The receiving hole 28 exists in the lid housing space 26 at a position on the other end side in the longitudinal direction (negative side in the X-axis direction) on the inner wall surface surrounding the battery lid 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 1). It is provided on the inner wall surface (see FIGS. 11, 14 and 15). The receiving hole 28 accepts a hook piece 53 of the operation member 51 described later, and contacts the hook piece 53 received on the negative side in the thickness direction of the battery cover 30 (Y-axis direction). It is possible. For this reason, the receiving hole 28 restrict | limits that the received hook piece 53 moves to the negative side of a Y-axis direction (thickness direction).

この4つの受入溝27および受入穴28は、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)における等しい高さ位置(Y軸方向での設定位置)に設けられている。   The four receiving grooves 27 and the receiving holes 28 are provided at equal height positions (set positions in the Y-axis direction) in the housing 11 (lid housing space 26).

電池蓋30は、実施例1では、図4および図5に示すように、内蓋部31と外蓋部32と保護吸収部33とを有する。内蓋部31は、電池蓋30において電池室20側に設けられており、電池室20の収納口25の開口縁部25a(図2等参照)に押し当てられる箇所を形成する。この内蓋部31は、全体に収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に等しい形状および大きさ寸法の平板状を呈し、上端縁部(Y軸方向正側の縁部)に封止部材34が設けられている。   As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the battery lid 30 includes an inner lid portion 31, an outer lid portion 32, and a protective absorption portion 33 in the first embodiment. The inner lid portion 31 is provided on the battery lid 30 on the battery chamber 20 side, and forms a portion pressed against the opening edge portion 25a (see FIG. 2 and the like) of the storage port 25 of the battery chamber 20. The inner lid portion 31 has a flat plate shape having the same shape and size as the storage port 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) as a whole, and a sealing member 34 at the upper end edge portion (the Y-axis direction positive side edge portion). Is provided.

この封止部材34は、弾性変形が可能な材料で形成され、内蓋部31の上端縁部に対応する環状とされている。封止部材34は、電池蓋30が後述する閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされると、収納口25の内方へと押し込まれて変形しつつ内蓋部31と開口縁部25aとの間で適切に圧縮されて、当該開口縁部25aに密接される(図14、図15および図16参照)。このため、電池蓋30では、閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされると、上端の封止部材34が収納口25の内方へと押し込まれ、その封止部材34を介して内蓋部31が収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てられることとなる。これにより、内蓋部31は、封止部材34との協働により、収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てられた状態において、収納口25を封じてそこから電池室20への異物(塵埃等)の侵入を防止する(以下、封止ともいう)。実施例1では、内蓋部31は、収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てられた状態において、収納口25から電池室20への水の浸入を防止する封止性能(水密性)を有している。この内蓋部31は、外蓋部32に取り付けられている。   The sealing member 34 is formed of a material that can be elastically deformed, and has an annular shape corresponding to the upper edge of the inner lid portion 31. When the battery cover 30 is in a closed state (see FIG. 1), which will be described later, the sealing member 34 is pushed inwardly of the storage opening 25 and deformed while being deformed between the inner cover part 31 and the opening edge part 25a. Compressed appropriately between them and brought into close contact with the opening edge 25a (see FIGS. 14, 15 and 16). For this reason, when the battery lid 30 is in the closed state (see FIG. 1), the sealing member 34 at the upper end is pushed inward of the storage port 25, and the inner lid portion is interposed via the sealing member 34. 31 is pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge 25a). As a result, the inner lid portion 31 seals the storage port 25 in a state where it is pressed against the storage port 25 (its opening edge portion 25a) in cooperation with the sealing member 34, and from there to the battery chamber 20 Prevent entry of foreign matter (dust etc.) (hereinafter also referred to as sealing). In Example 1, the inner lid portion 31 has a sealing performance (watertightness) that prevents water from entering the battery chamber 20 from the storage port 25 when pressed against the storage port 25 (opening edge 25a). )have. The inner lid portion 31 is attached to the outer lid portion 32.

その外蓋部32は、電池蓋30において筐体11の外方側に設けられており、保護吸収部33との協動により互いの外表面(Y軸方向の負側の表面)で筐体11の底面の一部を形成することができる(図1参照)。換言すると、外蓋部32は、保護吸収部33とともに、互いの外表面を筐体11の底面に沿わせることが可能とされている。外蓋部32には、外表面に操作用開口35が設けられている(図4参照)。この操作用開口35は、後述する操作部材51の操作突起部55がY軸方向(電池蓋30の厚さ方向)に突出することを許容しつつ、その操作突起部55が外蓋部32(電池蓋30)に対して長尺方向(X軸方向)に移動することを許容する(図14および図15参照)。   The outer lid portion 32 is provided on the outer side of the casing 11 in the battery lid 30, and the casing is formed on the outer surface (the negative side surface in the Y-axis direction) of each other by cooperation with the protective absorption portion 33. A part of the bottom surface of 11 can be formed (see FIG. 1). In other words, the outer lid 32 and the protective absorption part 33 can have their outer surfaces along the bottom surface of the housing 11. The outer lid portion 32 is provided with an operation opening 35 on the outer surface (see FIG. 4). The operation opening 35 allows an operation projection 55 of the operation member 51 to be described later to protrude in the Y-axis direction (the thickness direction of the battery lid 30), while the operation projection 55 is connected to the outer lid 32 ( The battery lid 30) is allowed to move in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) (see FIGS. 14 and 15).

また、外蓋部32には、外表面の裏側となる内表面に2つの軸受部36(図9および図12参照)と、位置決め溝部37(図14および図15参照)と、が設けられている。両軸受部36は、図9および図12に示すように、全体に円筒状を呈し、電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)へ突出されている。この両軸受部36では、その中心軸線(後述する固定軸線52d)回りの回転方向で見て、180度未満の領域が切り欠かれており、厚さ方向で外方から見るとC字形状を呈している。この軸受部36は、外蓋部32におけるX軸方向(長尺方向)での中間位置であって互いに異なる2つの箇所で、X軸方向(長尺方向)に並んで設けられている。   Further, the outer lid portion 32 is provided with two bearing portions 36 (see FIGS. 9 and 12) and a positioning groove portion 37 (see FIGS. 14 and 15) on the inner surface which is the back side of the outer surface. Yes. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 12, the two bearing portions 36 have a cylindrical shape as a whole and protrude in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. In the both bearing portions 36, a region of less than 180 degrees is cut away when viewed in the rotational direction around the central axis (fixed axis 52d described later), and the C shape is viewed from the outside in the thickness direction. Presents. The bearing portion 36 is provided at the intermediate position in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction) in the outer lid portion 32 and at two different positions from each other and aligned in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction).

位置決め溝部37は、図14および図15に示すように、電池蓋30の短尺方向(Z軸方向)に沿って設けられた解除位置溝37aと固定位置溝37bとを有する。この解除位置溝37aおよび固定位置溝37bは、それぞれの伸長方向に直交する断面で見て外蓋部32の内表面をY軸方向の負側に凹ませて形成されており、後述する操作部材51の位置決め突起部54に適合する形状とされている。すなわち、解除位置溝37aおよび固定位置溝37bは、後述する操作部材51の位置決め突起部54が嵌め込まれることが可能とされている。この解除位置溝37aおよび固定位置溝37bは、X軸方向(長尺方向)で並列して設けられている。この位置決め溝部37は、操作用開口35よりも長尺方向の他端側(X軸方向の負側)に設けられている。位置決め溝部37は、後述する操作部材51の引掛片部53への操作により、当該操作部材51が電池蓋30の長尺方向に平行移動される際、解除位置および固定位置であることの手ごたえ(クリック感)を生じさせることができる。   As shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, the positioning groove portion 37 includes a release position groove 37 a and a fixed position groove 37 b provided along the short direction (Z-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. The release position groove 37a and the fixed position groove 37b are formed by denting the inner surface of the outer lid portion 32 to the negative side in the Y-axis direction when viewed in a cross section orthogonal to the extending direction. The shape is adapted to 51 positioning projections 54. That is, the release position groove 37a and the fixed position groove 37b can be fitted with positioning protrusions 54 of the operation member 51 described later. The release position groove 37a and the fixed position groove 37b are provided in parallel in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction). The positioning groove portion 37 is provided on the other end side in the longitudinal direction (the negative side in the X-axis direction) from the operation opening 35. When the operation member 51 is translated in the longitudinal direction of the battery lid 30 by an operation on the hooking piece 53 of the operation member 51 described later, the positioning groove portion 37 is recognized as a release position and a fixed position ( Click feeling).

さらに、外蓋部32には、図4および図5に示すように、突出用穴38と、4つの突出用切欠39と、が設けられている。その突出用穴38は、外蓋部32において外表面に直交する位置に存在する外側面のうち、長尺方向(X軸方向)の位置に存在する外側面に設けられている。その突出用穴38は、後述する操作部材51の引掛片部53が、外蓋部32から長尺方向(X軸方向)に突出することを許容する。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the outer lid portion 32 is provided with a protruding hole 38 and four protruding notches 39. The projecting hole 38 is provided on the outer surface present at the position in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) among the outer surfaces present at the position orthogonal to the outer surface in the outer lid portion 32. The protruding hole 38 allows a hook piece 53 of the operation member 51 described later to protrude from the outer lid portion 32 in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction).

各突出用切欠39は、外蓋部32において外表面に直交する位置に存在する外側面のうち、短尺方向(Z軸方向)の位置に存在する外側面に設けられている。この各突出用切欠39は、当該外側面のそれぞれに、その短尺方向(Z軸方向)で対を為して設けられている。各突出用切欠39は、後述する引掛部材52の引掛爪部52bが、外蓋部32から短尺方向(Z軸方向)に突出することを許容する。この対を為す突出用切欠39は、外蓋部32におけるX軸方向(長尺方向)での中間位置であって互いに異なる2つの箇所に設けられている。このため、外蓋部32の短尺方向(Z軸方向)の位置に存在する2つの外側面では、それぞれ2つの突出用切欠39がX軸方向(長尺方向)に間隔を置きつつ直列されて設けられている。また、実施例1では、図4に示すように、外蓋部32におけるZ軸方向(短尺方向)の正側の外側面に設けられた2つの突出用切欠39が、X軸方向で見た中間位置をY軸方向に幅を広げる形状とされている。これにより、この2つの突出用切欠39では、後述する引掛部材52の進入(挿入)が可能とされている(図9参照)。   Each notch 39 for protrusion is provided in the outer surface which exists in the position of a short direction (Z-axis direction) among the outer surfaces which exist in the outer lid part 32 in the position orthogonal to an outer surface. The protruding notches 39 are provided in pairs on the outer side surfaces in the short direction (Z-axis direction). Each protruding notch 39 allows a hooking claw portion 52b of the hooking member 52 described later to protrude from the outer lid portion 32 in the short direction (Z-axis direction). The pair of projecting cutouts 39 are provided at two different positions in the X direction (longitudinal direction) of the outer lid portion 32 that are different from each other. For this reason, two projecting cutouts 39 are arranged in series at intervals in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction) on the two outer surfaces present at the position in the short direction (Z-axis direction) of the outer lid portion 32. Is provided. Moreover, in Example 1, as shown in FIG. 4, the two notches 39 for protrusion provided in the outer side of the positive side of the Z-axis direction (short direction) in the outer cover part 32 were seen in the X-axis direction. The intermediate position is shaped to increase the width in the Y-axis direction. Accordingly, the hooking member 52 described later can be entered (inserted) in the two protruding cutouts 39 (see FIG. 9).

この各突出用切欠39は、電池蓋30が閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされると、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた各受入溝27とZ軸方向(短尺方向)で対向される。また、突出用穴38は、電池蓋30が閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされると、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた受入穴28とX軸方向(長尺方向)で対向される。   When the battery cover 30 is in a closed state (see FIG. 1), each protrusion notch 39 and each receiving groove 27 provided in the housing 11 (lid housing space 26) and the Z-axis direction (short direction). It is opposed by. In addition, when the battery cover 30 is in a closed state (see FIG. 1), the protruding hole 38 and the receiving hole 28 provided in the housing 11 (the cover housing space 26) are in the X-axis direction (long direction). It is opposed by.

この外蓋部32は、図4および図5に示すように、電池蓋30の長尺方向の一端側(X軸方向の正側)に設けられた補助開閉軸Asを介して保護吸収部33に取り付けられている。その補助開閉軸Asは、保護吸収部33の他端部(X軸方向の負側の端部)において、Z軸方向(短尺方向)に沿って設けられている。   As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the outer lid portion 32 is provided with a protective absorbing portion 33 via an auxiliary opening / closing axis As provided on one end side in the longitudinal direction of the battery lid 30 (positive side in the X-axis direction). Is attached. The auxiliary opening / closing axis As is provided along the Z-axis direction (short direction) at the other end of the protective absorbing portion 33 (end on the negative side in the X-axis direction).

その保護吸収部33は、図2に示すように、開閉軸Amを介して蓋収容空間26に設けられている。その開閉軸Amは、蓋収容空間26における一端側(X軸方向の正側)において、Z軸方向(短尺方向)に掛け渡して設けられている。保護吸収部33は、一端部において開閉軸Amを回転自在に受け入れることで、開閉軸Amを介して蓋収容空間26に設けられている。このため、保護吸収部33(その一端部)は、蓋収容空間26に対して開閉軸Am(その軸線)を中心に回転可能に、当該蓋収容空間26の一端側に設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 2, the protective absorbing portion 33 is provided in the lid housing space 26 via an opening / closing axis Am. The opening / closing axis Am is provided so as to span in the Z-axis direction (short direction) on one end side (positive side in the X-axis direction) of the lid housing space 26. The protection absorption part 33 is provided in the lid accommodation space 26 via the opening / closing axis Am by rotatably receiving the opening / closing axis Am at one end. For this reason, the protection absorption part 33 (the one end part) is provided in the one end side of the said lid accommodation space 26 so that rotation with respect to the lid accommodation space 26 centering on the opening-and-closing axis | shaft Am (its axis line) is possible.

また、保護吸収部33は、図4および図5に示すように、他端部が補助開閉軸Asを中心に回転可能に外蓋部32と連結されている。このため、保護吸収部33は、その他端部が、外蓋部32に対して補助開閉軸Asを中心に回転可能に、当該外蓋部32の一端側と連結されている。この外蓋部32と保護吸収部33とは、補助開閉軸As回りの相対的に回転可能な範囲が、互いの外表面が同一平面上で並列する状態(図2および図4等参照)と、互いの外表面を近付ける回転方向側で両外表面が略直交する状態(図2に示す保護吸収部33に対する二点鎖線の外蓋部32参照)と、の間に設定されている。また、外蓋部32と保護吸収部33とは、図示は略すが補助開閉軸Asを取り巻いて設けられたトーションバネにより、互いの外表面が同一平面状上で並列する状態(図2および図4等参照)へ向けて、補助開閉軸As回りに相対的に押し広げられている。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the other end of the protective absorbing portion 33 is connected to the outer lid portion 32 so as to be rotatable about the auxiliary opening / closing axis As. For this reason, the other end portion of the protective absorption portion 33 is connected to one end side of the outer lid portion 32 so as to be rotatable about the auxiliary opening / closing axis As with respect to the outer lid portion 32. The outer lid portion 32 and the protective absorption portion 33 have a relatively rotatable range around the auxiliary opening / closing axis As and a state in which the outer surfaces of the outer lid portion 32 and the protective absorption portion 33 are arranged on the same plane (see FIG. 2 and FIG. 4). The state is set between a state in which both outer surfaces are substantially orthogonal to each other on the rotation direction side approaching each other's outer surface (see an outer lid portion 32 indicated by a two-dot chain line with respect to the protective absorbing portion 33 shown in FIG. 2). In addition, the outer lid portion 32 and the protective absorption portion 33 are not shown in the drawing, but are in a state in which their outer surfaces are aligned on the same plane by a torsion spring provided around the auxiliary opening / closing axis As (see FIGS. 2 and 2). Toward the auxiliary opening / closing axis As.

このため、電池蓋30では、基本的には、電池室20(蓋収容空間26)に対して、外蓋部32(内蓋部31を含む)と保護吸収部33とが開閉軸Am回りに一体的に回転可能とされている(図1および図2参照)。この電池蓋30は、封止部材34を介して内蓋部31を電池室20の収納口25の開口縁部25aに押し当てつつ外蓋部32および保護吸収部33(それらの外表面)で筐体11の底面の一部を形成することにより、収納口25(その開口縁部25a)を遮蔽する(図1参照)。このとき、封止部材34は、上述したように、収納口25の内方へと押し込まれつつ内蓋部31と開口縁部25aとの間で適切に圧縮されて、その開口縁部25aに密接される(図15および図16参照)。この明細書では、このように電池蓋30が閉められた状態を閉蓋状態という。また、電池蓋30は、筐体11の底面に対して外蓋部32および保護吸収部33を起立させて内蓋部31を電池室20の収納口25の開口縁部25aから離間させることにより、収納口25(その開口縁部25a)を露出させる(図2参照)。この明細書では、このように電池蓋30が開けられた状態を開蓋状態という。このことから、電池蓋30は、閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされることで電池室20を閉鎖することができ、開蓋状態(図2参照)とされることで電池室20を開放することができる。   For this reason, in the battery lid 30, the outer lid portion 32 (including the inner lid portion 31) and the protective absorption portion 33 are basically around the opening / closing axis Am with respect to the battery chamber 20 (lid housing space 26). It can be rotated integrally (see FIGS. 1 and 2). The battery lid 30 is formed by the outer lid portion 32 and the protective absorption portion 33 (the outer surfaces thereof) while pressing the inner lid portion 31 against the opening edge 25a of the storage port 25 of the battery chamber 20 via the sealing member 34. By forming a part of the bottom surface of the housing 11, the storage opening 25 (the opening edge 25a thereof) is shielded (see FIG. 1). At this time, as described above, the sealing member 34 is appropriately compressed between the inner lid portion 31 and the opening edge portion 25a while being pushed inward of the storage port 25, and the opening edge portion 25a is compressed. (See FIGS. 15 and 16). In this specification, the state where the battery cover 30 is closed in this way is referred to as a closed state. Further, the battery lid 30 is configured by raising the outer lid portion 32 and the protective absorption portion 33 with respect to the bottom surface of the housing 11 to separate the inner lid portion 31 from the opening edge 25 a of the storage port 25 of the battery chamber 20. The storage opening 25 (the opening edge 25a) is exposed (see FIG. 2). In this specification, the state in which the battery cover 30 is thus opened is referred to as an open state. From this, the battery lid 30 can close the battery chamber 20 by being in the closed state (see FIG. 1), and can be opened by being in the open state (see FIG. 2). can do.

また、電池蓋30では、開蓋状態(図2参照)とされた際に外蓋部32に不測の力が作用すると当該外蓋部32が保護吸収部33に対して補助開閉軸As回りに回転する(図2に示す二点鎖線の外蓋部32参照)。これにより、電池蓋30は、開蓋状態(図2参照)において不測の力が作用した際に不具合が生じることを抑制することができる。この電池蓋30を閉蓋状態で固定するためにロック機構50が設けられている。   Further, in the battery lid 30, when an unexpected force is applied to the outer lid portion 32 when the battery lid 30 is in the open state (see FIG. 2), the outer lid portion 32 rotates around the auxiliary opening / closing axis As with respect to the protective absorption portion 33. It rotates (see the outer lid part 32 of the two-dot chain line shown in FIG. 2). Thereby, the battery lid | cover 30 can suppress that a malfunction arises when an unexpected force acts in a cover open state (refer FIG. 2). A lock mechanism 50 is provided to fix the battery cover 30 in the closed state.

このロック機構50は、外蓋部32に設けられる操作部材51と2つの引掛部材52とを有する(図10および図11等参照)。操作部材51は、図6および図7に示すように、全体にX軸方向に長尺な板状を呈する。この操作部材51では、図6を正面視した際に見える表面側に、引掛片部53と位置決め突起部54と操作突起部55と2つの貫通穴56とが設けられている。引掛片部53は、電池蓋30の長尺方向で見た他端側(X軸方向の負側)に突出されており、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた受入穴28(図14および図15参照)への進入(挿入)が可能とされている。この引掛片部53では、突出端部の表面側(Y軸方向で負側となる面)が切り欠かれている。引掛片部53は、突出端部表面側が切り欠かれていることにより、突出端部が先端に向かうに連れて厚さ寸法(Y軸方向での大きさ寸法)が漸減している。   The lock mechanism 50 includes an operation member 51 and two hooking members 52 provided on the outer lid portion 32 (see FIGS. 10 and 11). As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the operation member 51 has a plate shape that is long in the X-axis direction as a whole. In the operation member 51, a hooking piece portion 53, a positioning projection portion 54, an operation projection portion 55, and two through holes 56 are provided on the surface side that can be seen when viewing FIG. 6 from the front. The hooking piece 53 protrudes to the other end side (the negative side in the X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 when viewed in the longitudinal direction, and receives a receiving hole 28 (provided in the housing 11 (lid housing space 26)). (See FIG. 14 and FIG. 15). In the hooking piece 53, the surface side of the protruding end (the surface on the negative side in the Y-axis direction) is notched. The hooking piece portion 53 is cut off on the surface side of the protruding end portion, so that the thickness dimension (size size in the Y-axis direction) gradually decreases as the protruding end portion approaches the tip.

位置決め突起部54は、Y軸方向の負側へ向けてV字状(山型)に突出され、その突出端が電池蓋30の短尺方向(Z軸方向)に延びて形成されている。この位置決め突起部54は、外蓋部32の位置決め溝部37の解除位置溝37aおよび固定位置溝37bに適合する形状とされており、それらに嵌め込むことが可能とされている(図14および図15参照)。位置決め突起部54は、操作部材51の引掛片部53と操作突起部55との間における、長尺方向(X軸方向)に沿って設けられた帯状箇所54aに設けられている(図9等参照)。この帯状箇所54aは、引掛片部53と操作突起部55との間で、長尺方向に沿う2つのスリット状の切れ込みにより形成されている。このため、位置決め突起部54は、帯状箇所54aの撓み変形により、操作部材51における電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)への変位が可能とされている。ここで、操作部材51では、引掛片部53と操作突起部55との間が帯状箇所54aの両側に存在する両側箇所54bで長尺方向(X軸方向)に掛け渡されていることから、位置決め突起部54の厚さ方向への変位に拘らず引掛片部53と操作突起部55との位置関係が変化することが防止されている。   The positioning projection 54 protrudes in a V shape (mountain shape) toward the negative side in the Y-axis direction, and the protruding end is formed to extend in the short direction (Z-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. The positioning projection 54 is shaped to fit the release position groove 37a and the fixed position groove 37b of the positioning groove 37 of the outer lid portion 32, and can be fitted into them (FIGS. 14 and FIG. 14). 15). The positioning projection 54 is provided in a strip-like portion 54a provided along the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) between the hook piece 53 and the operation projection 55 of the operation member 51 (FIG. 9 and the like). reference). The belt-like portion 54 a is formed by two slit-shaped cuts along the longitudinal direction between the hooking piece portion 53 and the operation projection portion 55. For this reason, the positioning projection 54 can be displaced in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery cover 30 in the operation member 51 by the bending deformation of the belt-like portion 54a. Here, in the operation member 51, the space between the hook piece 53 and the operation projection 55 is spanned in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) at both side portions 54b existing on both sides of the belt-like portion 54a. Regardless of the displacement of the positioning protrusion 54 in the thickness direction, the positional relationship between the hook piece 53 and the operation protrusion 55 is prevented from changing.

操作突起部55は、位置決め突起部54と2つの貫通穴56との間で、Y軸方向の負側へ向けて突出されている。この操作突起部55は、Y軸方向の負側へ向けて外蓋部32の操作用開口35内に突出する大きさ寸法であって、その操作用開口35内において長尺方向(X軸方向)に移動することのできる大きさ寸法とされている(図4、図14および図15参照)。操作突起部55は、実施例1では、電池蓋30の短尺方向(Z軸方向)の長さ寸法がその長尺方向(X軸方向)の長さ寸法よりも大きく設定されて、全体に直方体形状とされている。この操作突起部55のX軸方向の正側に2つの貫通穴56が設けられている。   The operation protrusion 55 protrudes toward the negative side in the Y-axis direction between the positioning protrusion 54 and the two through holes 56. The operation projection 55 has a size that projects into the operation opening 35 of the outer lid portion 32 toward the negative side in the Y-axis direction. The operation protrusion 55 has a longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) in the operation opening 35. ) (See FIGS. 4, 14 and 15). In the first embodiment, the length of the operation projection 55 in the short direction (Z-axis direction) of the battery cover 30 is set to be larger than the length of the long direction (X-axis direction), and the entire length of the operation protrusion 55 is a rectangular parallelepiped. It is made into a shape. Two through holes 56 are provided on the positive side of the operation protrusion 55 in the X-axis direction.

その2つの貫通穴56は、操作部材51を電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)に貫通して形成されている。この各貫通穴56は、外蓋部32に設けられた2つの軸受部36(図9参照)に対応されて設けられている。このため、2つの貫通穴56は、X軸方向(長尺方向)に並んで設けられている。各貫通穴56は、それぞれが対応する軸受部36を受け入れることを許容する大きさ寸法であって、受け入れた軸受部36が長尺方向(X軸方向)に相対的に移動することを許容する大きさ寸法とされている(図9、図10および図11参照)。   The two through holes 56 are formed through the operation member 51 in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. Each through hole 56 is provided in correspondence with two bearing portions 36 (see FIG. 9) provided in the outer lid portion 32. For this reason, the two through holes 56 are provided side by side in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction). Each through hole 56 is sized to allow the corresponding bearing portion 36 to be received, and allows the received bearing portion 36 to move relatively in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction). The size is set (see FIGS. 9, 10, and 11).

また、操作部材51では、図7を正面視した際に見える裏面側に、解除側押壁部57と固定側押壁部58と解除側止壁部59とが設けられている。この解除側押壁部57と固定側押壁部58と解除側止壁部59とは、それぞれ2つの貫通穴56に対応して設けられている。この解除側押壁部57と固定側押壁部58と解除側止壁部59とは、電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で見て、外蓋部32の軸受部36に設けられる引掛部材52と等しい高さ位置で干渉することが可能とされている。解除側押壁部57と固定側押壁部58と解除側止壁部59とは、どちらの貫通穴56に対応するものであっても略同様の構成であって同様の作用を得るものであることから、以下では、X軸方向の負側の位置に存在する貫通穴56に対応するもの(図12参照)を用いて説明し、他方の説明は省略する。   In the operation member 51, a release-side push wall portion 57, a fixed-side push wall portion 58, and a release-side stop wall portion 59 are provided on the back side that can be seen when viewing FIG. The release-side push wall portion 57, the fixed-side push wall portion 58, and the release-side stop wall portion 59 are provided corresponding to the two through holes 56, respectively. The release-side push wall portion 57, the fixed-side push wall portion 58, and the release-side stop wall portion 59 are provided in the bearing portion 36 of the outer lid portion 32 when viewed in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. It is possible to interfere at the same height position as the hook member 52 to be applied. The release-side push wall portion 57, the fixed-side push wall portion 58, and the release-side stop wall portion 59 have substantially the same configuration and obtain the same action regardless of which through-hole 56 they correspond to. Therefore, in the following, description will be given using the one corresponding to the through hole 56 existing at the negative position in the X-axis direction (see FIG. 12), and the other description will be omitted.

解除側押壁部57は、貫通穴56におけるZ軸方向の負側の端部であって、かつX軸方向の負側の端部に設けられている。この解除側押壁部57は、貫通穴56の端部から、Z軸方向の負側へ向けて湾曲された後にZ軸方向に沿って延びて形成されている。   The release-side pressing wall portion 57 is provided at the negative end portion in the Z-axis direction of the through hole 56 and at the negative end portion in the X-axis direction. The release-side pressing wall portion 57 is formed to extend along the Z-axis direction after being bent from the end portion of the through hole 56 toward the negative side in the Z-axis direction.

固定側押壁部58は、貫通穴56におけるZ軸方向の負側の端部であって、かつX軸方向の正側に設けられている。この固定側押壁部58は、解除側押壁部57のX軸方向の正側において、当該解除側押壁部57とX軸方向で対向して設けられている。固定側押壁部58は、解除側押壁部57側に向けて膨らんで湾曲された後に、解除側押壁部57との間隔を広げるようにZ軸方向に対して傾斜する方向に延びて形成されている。   The fixed-side pushing wall portion 58 is an end portion on the negative side in the Z-axis direction of the through hole 56 and is provided on the positive side in the X-axis direction. The fixed-side push wall portion 58 is provided on the positive side in the X-axis direction of the release-side push wall portion 57 so as to face the release-side push wall portion 57 in the X-axis direction. The fixed-side push wall portion 58 bulges and curves toward the release-side push wall portion 57 side, and then extends in a direction inclined with respect to the Z-axis direction so as to widen the distance from the release-side push wall portion 57. Is formed.

解除側止壁部59は、貫通穴56におけるZ軸方向の正側の端部であって、かつX軸方向の負側の端部に設けられている。この解除側止壁部59は、貫通穴56の端部から、Z軸方向の正側であって当該Z軸方向に対してX軸方向の負側へと傾斜する方向に延びて形成されている。   The release-side stop wall 59 is provided at the positive end of the through hole 56 in the Z-axis direction and at the negative end of the X-axis direction. The release-side stop wall portion 59 is formed to extend from the end portion of the through hole 56 in a direction inclined on the positive side in the Z-axis direction and on the negative side in the X-axis direction with respect to the Z-axis direction. Yes.

このように構成された操作部材51は、外蓋部32の内方に設けられる(図9等参照)。この操作部材51は、図示は略すが、外蓋部32内において、電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)に延びる案内溝と案内突起とが嵌り合わせられて、外蓋部32に保持されている。このため、操作部材51は、外蓋部32の内方で、電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)に平行移動(姿勢の変更を伴うことなく長尺方向での位置を変化させる)することが可能とされている(図9から図11参照)。このとき、操作部材51の引掛片部53が外蓋部32の突出用穴38と長尺方向で対向し、操作部材51の位置決め突起部54が外蓋部32の位置決め溝部37(解除位置溝37aと固定位置溝37bとのいずれか)に嵌め込まれる(図14および図15等参照)。また、操作部材51の操作突起部55が外蓋部32の操作用開口35内に配され、操作部材51の各貫通穴56内に外蓋部32の対応する軸受部36が配される(図9参照)。   The operation member 51 configured as described above is provided inside the outer lid portion 32 (see FIG. 9 and the like). Although not shown, the operation member 51 is held in the outer lid portion 32 by fitting a guide groove and a guide projection extending in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 in the outer lid portion 32. Has been. For this reason, the operation member 51 is translated in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 inside the outer lid portion 32 (changes the position in the longitudinal direction without changing the posture). (See FIGS. 9 to 11). At this time, the hooking piece portion 53 of the operation member 51 faces the protruding hole 38 of the outer lid portion 32 in the longitudinal direction, and the positioning projection portion 54 of the operation member 51 is positioned to the positioning groove portion 37 (release position groove) of the outer lid portion 32. 37a or fixed position groove 37b) (see FIG. 14 and FIG. 15). In addition, the operation projection 55 of the operation member 51 is disposed in the operation opening 35 of the outer lid portion 32, and the corresponding bearing portion 36 of the outer lid portion 32 is disposed in each through hole 56 of the operation member 51 ( (See FIG. 9).

この操作部材51に2つの引掛部材52が設けられる。この2つの引掛部材52は、ともに等しい構成とされていることから、単一の引掛部材52を用いて説明する。引掛部材52は、図8に示すように、全体に長尺な平板状を呈する。この引掛部材52は、実施例1では、金属材料から形成されている。引掛部材52は、長尺方向で見た中央に設けられた回転軸部52aと、長尺方向で見た両端に設けられた2つの引掛爪部52bと、を有する。   The operating member 51 is provided with two hooking members 52. Since the two hook members 52 have the same configuration, the single hook member 52 will be described. As shown in FIG. 8, the hooking member 52 has a long flat plate shape as a whole. The hook member 52 is made of a metal material in the first embodiment. The hooking member 52 has a rotating shaft part 52a provided at the center viewed in the longitudinal direction and two hooking claw parts 52b provided at both ends viewed in the longitudinal direction.

回転軸部52aは、平坦な引掛部材52から直交する方向に突出されており、全体に円筒形状を呈する。この回転軸部52aは、外蓋部32の軸受部36(図9参照)に回転可能に嵌め込むことが可能とされている。このため、回転軸部52aの中心軸線すなわち外蓋部32の軸受部36の中心軸線が、電池蓋30に対して引掛部材52が回転可能とされる固定軸線52dとなる。この固定軸線52dは、電池蓋30の厚さ方向であるにY軸方向に沿って設定されている。   The rotating shaft part 52a protrudes from the flat hooking member 52 in a direction orthogonal to the whole, and has a cylindrical shape as a whole. The rotating shaft portion 52a can be rotatably fitted in the bearing portion 36 (see FIG. 9) of the outer lid portion 32. For this reason, the central axis of the rotary shaft 52 a, that is, the central axis of the bearing portion 36 of the outer lid portion 32 becomes a fixed axis 52 d that allows the hook member 52 to rotate with respect to the battery lid 30. The fixed axis 52d is set along the Y-axis direction, which is the thickness direction of the battery cover 30.

2つの引掛爪部52bは、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた受入溝27(図2および図11参照)への進入が可能とされている。この各引掛爪部52bでは、引掛部材52における短尺方向で見た一端側が、短尺方向の外側に向かうに連れて厚さ寸法が漸減されている。この一端側は、後述するように、操作部材51の外蓋部32内での平行移動に伴って、引掛部材52が回転軸部52a回りに回転された際、引掛爪部52bが外蓋部32から突出される移動方向(図10および図11の矢印A2参照)における前側とされている。   The two hooking claws 52b can enter the receiving groove 27 (see FIGS. 2 and 11) provided in the housing 11 (lid housing space 26). In each of the hooking claws 52b, one end side of the hooking member 52 viewed in the short direction is gradually reduced in thickness toward the outside in the short direction. As will be described later, when the hooking member 52 is rotated around the rotation shaft portion 52a in accordance with the parallel movement of the operation member 51 in the outer lid portion 32, the one end side of the one end side becomes the outer lid portion. 32 is the front side in the movement direction protruding from 32 (see arrow A2 in FIGS. 10 and 11).

また、引掛部材52では、実施例1では、長尺方向で見た中央箇所に拡径部52cが設けられている。この拡径部52cでは、引掛部材52の中央箇所の径を増大させる円板状とされており、その中心位置が回転軸部52aの軸線(中心)と一致されている。   Moreover, in the hook member 52, in Example 1, the enlarged diameter part 52c is provided in the center location seen in the elongate direction. The diameter-enlarged portion 52c has a disk shape that increases the diameter of the central portion of the hooking member 52, and the center position thereof coincides with the axis (center) of the rotating shaft portion 52a.

この電池蓋30では、上述したように、外蓋部32内において、操作部材51が電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)に平行移動可能に設けられる(図9参照)。その操作部材51が設けられた外蓋部32では、図9に示すように、2つの引掛部材52が装着される。両引掛部材52は、実施例1では、外蓋部32におけるZ軸方向(短尺方向)の正側の外側面に設けられた2つの突出用切欠39から、外蓋部32内へと進入される。このとき、両引掛部材52の回転軸部52aを、外蓋部32の軸受部36に嵌め込む。その軸受部36は、中心軸線回りの回転方向で見た一部が切り欠かれたC字形状を呈していることから、当該切り欠かれた箇所からの回転軸部52aのX−Z平面に沿う方向での押し入れが可能である。また、各軸受部36は、操作部材51の対応する貫通穴56内に配されている。これにより、両引掛部材52は、操作部材51の2つの貫通穴56内に配された軸受部36の中心軸線(固定軸線52d)回りに、回転可能に外蓋部32に取り付けられる(図10および図11参照)。   In the battery lid 30, as described above, the operation member 51 is provided in the outer lid portion 32 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 (see FIG. 9). In the outer lid portion 32 provided with the operation member 51, two hooking members 52 are mounted as shown in FIG. In the first embodiment, the hook members 52 are advanced into the outer lid portion 32 from the two protruding cutouts 39 provided on the outer side of the outer lid portion 32 on the positive side in the Z-axis direction (short direction). The At this time, the rotating shaft portions 52 a of both hook members 52 are fitted into the bearing portions 36 of the outer lid portion 32. Since the bearing portion 36 has a C shape with a part cut away in the rotation direction around the central axis, the bearing portion 36 is formed on the XZ plane of the rotary shaft portion 52a from the cutout portion. It can be pushed in along the direction. Each bearing portion 36 is disposed in a corresponding through hole 56 of the operation member 51. As a result, the hook members 52 are rotatably attached to the outer lid portion 32 around the central axis (fixed axis 52d) of the bearing portion 36 disposed in the two through holes 56 of the operation member 51 (FIG. 10). And FIG. 11).

このとき、各引掛部材52では、拡径部52cの近傍において、X軸方向の負側に解除側押壁部57が接しているとともに、X軸方向の正側に固定側押壁部58が接している(図10から図12参照)。この外蓋部32には、内蓋部31が取り付けられ、かつその内蓋部31には、封止部材34が取り付けられる。そして、外蓋部32が保護吸収部33を介してその開閉軸Amを中心に回転可能に蓋収容空間26に設けられることにより、電池蓋30が筐体11に設けられる(図1および図2参照)。   At this time, in each hooking member 52, in the vicinity of the enlarged diameter portion 52c, the release-side pushing wall portion 57 is in contact with the negative side in the X-axis direction, and the fixed-side pushing wall portion 58 is located on the positive side in the X-axis direction. (See FIGS. 10 to 12). An inner lid portion 31 is attached to the outer lid portion 32, and a sealing member 34 is attached to the inner lid portion 31. And the battery cover 30 is provided in the housing | casing 11 by providing the outer cover part 32 in the cover accommodation space 26 through the protective absorption part 33 so that rotation is possible centering on the opening-and-closing axis | shaft Am (FIGS. 1 and 2). reference).

この電池蓋30では、上述した開蓋状態(図2参照)において、操作部材51の位置決め突起部54が外蓋部32の位置決め溝部37の解除位置溝37aに嵌め込まれている(図14参照)。これを、操作部材51の解除位置とする。この操作部材51が解除位置とされた状態を、図10および図14に示す。この解除位置では、操作部材51は、図10に示すように、外蓋部32内において、電池蓋30の長尺方向の一端側(X軸方向の正側)に配されている。このとき、操作部材51の操作突起部55が、外蓋部32の操作用開口35内でX軸方向の正側の位置に存在されている(図14参照)。また、操作部材51の引掛片部53が、外蓋部32の突出用穴38内の位置に存在して外蓋部32(電池蓋30)から突出していない(図2、図10および図14参照)。さらに、2つの引掛部材52は、両端の引掛爪部52bが外蓋部32の対応する突出用切欠39内の位置に存在させて外蓋部32(電池蓋30)から突出させることのない、Z軸方向に対して傾斜する回転姿勢とされている(図2、図10および図14参照)。この引掛部材52は、拡径部52cの近傍であって、解除側押壁部57および固定側押壁部58とはZ軸方向の反対側(正側)において、X軸方向の負側に解除側止壁部59が接している(図10および図12等参照)。   In the battery lid 30, the positioning protrusion 54 of the operation member 51 is fitted in the release position groove 37 a of the positioning groove 37 of the outer lid 32 (see FIG. 14) in the above-described open state (see FIG. 2). . This is the release position of the operation member 51. FIGS. 10 and 14 show a state where the operation member 51 is in the release position. In this release position, as shown in FIG. 10, the operation member 51 is disposed on one end side (the positive side in the X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 in the longitudinal direction in the outer lid portion 32. At this time, the operation projection 55 of the operation member 51 is present at the position on the positive side in the X-axis direction within the operation opening 35 of the outer lid 32 (see FIG. 14). Further, the hook piece 53 of the operation member 51 is present at a position in the protrusion hole 38 of the outer lid portion 32 and does not protrude from the outer lid portion 32 (battery lid 30) (FIGS. 2, 10, and 14). reference). Further, the two hooking members 52 do not protrude from the outer lid portion 32 (battery lid 30) because the hooking claw portions 52b at both ends are present at positions in the corresponding protruding cutouts 39 of the outer lid portion 32. The rotation posture is inclined with respect to the Z-axis direction (see FIGS. 2, 10 and 14). The hooking member 52 is in the vicinity of the enlarged-diameter portion 52c, on the opposite side (positive side) of the Z-axis direction to the release-side pressing wall portion 57 and the fixed-side pressing wall portion 58, on the negative side in the X-axis direction. The release-side stop wall portion 59 is in contact (see FIGS. 10 and 12, etc.).

その電池蓋30は、上述したように、開蓋状態(図2参照)から開閉軸Am回りに回転されると、電池室20を閉鎖する閉蓋状態(図1参照)とすることができる。このとき、電池蓋30では、封止部材34を介して内蓋部31が電池室20の収納口25の開口縁部25aに押し当てられて、外蓋部32および保護吸収部33(それらの外表面)で筐体11の底面の一部を形成する。ここで、電池蓋30では、閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされると、内蓋部31が電池室20の収納口25の開口縁部25aに押し当てられることから、開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた反発力を受ける。特に、実施例1の電池蓋30では、内蓋部31に弾性変形が可能な封止部材34が設けられていることから、閉蓋状態(図1参照)とされると、内蓋部31と開口縁部25aとの間で封止部材34が圧縮されるので、開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた反発力をより受け易い構成とされている。   As described above, when the battery cover 30 is rotated about the opening / closing axis Am from the open state (see FIG. 2), the battery cover 30 can be in a closed state (see FIG. 1). At this time, in the battery lid 30, the inner lid portion 31 is pressed against the opening edge 25 a of the storage port 25 of the battery chamber 20 via the sealing member 34, and the outer lid portion 32 and the protective absorption portion 33 (their parts) A part of the bottom surface of the housing 11 is formed on the outer surface. Here, when the battery lid 30 is in the closed state (see FIG. 1), the inner lid portion 31 is pressed against the opening edge 25a of the storage port 25 of the battery chamber 20, so that the lid is opened (see FIG. 1). (See 2). In particular, in the battery lid 30 of the first embodiment, the inner lid portion 31 is provided with the sealing member 34 that can be elastically deformed. Therefore, when the lid is closed (see FIG. 1), the inner lid portion 31 is provided. Since the sealing member 34 is compressed between the opening edge portion 25a and the opening edge portion 25a, the repulsive force toward the open lid state (see FIG. 2) is more easily received.

この閉蓋状態において、外蓋部32の操作用開口35からY軸方向の負側に突出された操作突起部55を、X軸方向の正側へと移動させる(図14の矢印A1参照)。すると、操作突起部55が設けられた操作部材51は、外蓋部32内において、解除位置から電池蓋30の長尺方向の他端側(X軸方向の負側)に変位される。その後、操作部材51では、外蓋部32の位置決め溝部37において解除位置溝37aに嵌め込まれていた位置決め突起部54が(図14参照)、X軸方向の負側へと変位することにより固定位置溝37bに嵌め込まれる(図15参照)。これを操作部材51の固定位置とする。この操作部材51が固定位置とされた状態を、図11および図15に示す。   In this closed state, the operation projection 55 protruding from the operation opening 35 of the outer lid 32 to the negative side in the Y-axis direction is moved to the positive side in the X-axis direction (see arrow A1 in FIG. 14). . Then, the operation member 51 provided with the operation protrusion 55 is displaced from the release position to the other end side in the longitudinal direction of the battery cover 30 (the negative side in the X-axis direction) in the outer lid portion 32. Thereafter, in the operation member 51, the positioning protrusion 54 (see FIG. 14) fitted in the release position groove 37a in the positioning groove 37 of the outer lid portion 32 (see FIG. 14) is displaced to the negative side in the X-axis direction. It fits into the groove 37b (see FIG. 15). This is the fixed position of the operation member 51. FIGS. 11 and 15 show a state where the operation member 51 is set to the fixed position.

この固定位置では、操作部材51の引掛片部53は、図15に示すように、外蓋部32の突出用穴38から突出されて、外蓋部32(電池蓋30)からX軸方向(長尺方向)に突出される。すると、突出用穴38には、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた受入穴28が、X軸方向(長尺方向)で対向されていることから、引掛片部53が受入穴28内に進入する。この引掛片部53は、Y軸方向の負側の面(表面)が、受入穴28(その内壁面)に接した状態で、受入穴28内に進入する。このとき、引掛片部53では、突出端部の表面側(Y軸方向の負側)が切り欠かれて、突出端部が先端に向かうに連れて厚さ寸法(Y軸方向での大きさ寸法)が漸減していることから、受入穴28(その蓋収容空間26への開口端部)に引っ掛かることを防止することができる。   In this fixed position, as shown in FIG. 15, the hook piece 53 of the operation member 51 protrudes from the protruding hole 38 of the outer lid portion 32 and extends from the outer lid portion 32 (battery lid 30) in the X-axis direction ( It protrudes in the long direction). Then, since the receiving hole 28 provided in the housing 11 (the lid housing space 26) is opposed to the protruding hole 38 in the X-axis direction (longitudinal direction), the hook piece 53 is received in the receiving hole. Enter 28. The hook piece 53 enters the receiving hole 28 in a state where the negative side surface (front surface) in the Y-axis direction is in contact with the receiving hole 28 (the inner wall surface thereof). At this time, in the hooking piece portion 53, the surface side (negative side in the Y-axis direction) of the protruding end portion is notched, and the thickness dimension (size in the Y-axis direction) is increased as the protruding end portion moves toward the tip. Since the dimension) is gradually reduced, it can be prevented from being caught in the receiving hole 28 (the opening end to the lid housing space 26).

また、操作部材51が、解除位置(図10参照)からX軸方向の負側へと変位すると、その各固定側押壁部58が対応する引掛部材52の拡径部52cの近傍におけるZ軸方向(短尺方向)の負側の位置を、X軸方向の負側へ向けて押す(図10および図12参照)。これにより、両引掛部材52は、外蓋部32の軸受部36に嵌め込まれた回転軸部52aすなわち固定軸線52dを中心として、図10および図11の矢印A2方向(図10および図11を正面視して時計回り)に回転する。その後、操作部材51が固定位置へと平行移動されると(図11参照)、両引掛部材52は、Z軸方向と平行な姿勢まで回転される。このとき、各引掛部材52の両端の引掛爪部52bは、外蓋部32の対応する突出用切欠39から突出されて外蓋部32(電池蓋30)からZ軸方向(短尺方向)に突出される(図11および図16参照)。すると、各突出用切欠39には、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた各受入溝27が、Z軸方向(短尺方向)で対向されていることから、各引掛爪部52bは対応する受入溝27内に進入する。この各引掛爪部52bでは、引掛部材52における短尺方向で見た一端側が、短尺方向の外側に向かうに連れて厚さ寸法が漸減していることから、受入溝27(その開口端部)に引っ掛かることを防止することができる。このとき、各受入溝27では、引掛爪部52bが外蓋部32から突出される際の移動方向における前側(図10および図11の矢印A2参照)が、X軸方向での一方の端部とされている。このため、各引掛爪部52bは、受入溝27内において、電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で見た間隔が小さく設定された一方の端部に進入する(図13参照)。その各受入溝27では、一方の端部側が引掛爪部52bの厚さ寸法に等しく設定されている。このため、各引掛爪部52bは、対応する受入溝27の一方の端部に進入することにより、電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で見て表裏面が受入溝27(その一方の端部)に接する(図13および図16参照)。   Further, when the operation member 51 is displaced from the release position (see FIG. 10) to the negative side in the X-axis direction, the Z-axis in the vicinity of the diameter-enlarged portion 52c of the hooking member 52 corresponding to each fixed-side pushing wall portion 58. The position on the negative side in the direction (short direction) is pushed toward the negative side in the X-axis direction (see FIGS. 10 and 12). As a result, both hook members 52 are centered on the rotating shaft portion 52a fitted to the bearing portion 36 of the outer lid portion 32, that is, the fixed axis 52d, in the direction of the arrow A2 in FIGS. 10 and 11 (see FIGS. 10 and 11 in front). Rotate clockwise). Thereafter, when the operation member 51 is translated to the fixed position (see FIG. 11), both the hook members 52 are rotated to a posture parallel to the Z-axis direction. At this time, the hooking claws 52b at both ends of each hooking member 52 are protruded from the corresponding protruding cutouts 39 of the outer lid portion 32 and protrude from the outer lid portion 32 (battery lid 30) in the Z-axis direction (short direction). (See FIGS. 11 and 16). Then, since each receiving groove 27 provided in the housing 11 (lid housing space 26) is opposed to each protruding notch 39 in the Z-axis direction (short direction), each hooking claw portion 52b is Enter the corresponding receiving groove 27. In each of the hooking claws 52b, the one end side of the hooking member 52 viewed in the short direction is gradually reduced in thickness toward the outside in the short direction, so that the receiving groove 27 (the opening end thereof) is formed. It can be prevented from being caught. At this time, in each receiving groove 27, the front side in the movement direction when the hooking claw portion 52b protrudes from the outer lid portion 32 (see arrow A2 in FIGS. 10 and 11) is one end portion in the X-axis direction. It is said that. For this reason, each catching claw part 52b enters one end part in which the interval seen in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery cover 30 is set small in the receiving groove 27 (see FIG. 13). In each receiving groove 27, one end side is set to be equal to the thickness dimension of the hooking claw portion 52b. For this reason, each hooking claw 52b enters one end of the corresponding receiving groove 27 so that the front and back surfaces of the receiving claw 27 (one of them) when viewed in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery cover 30 (Refer to FIG. 13 and FIG. 16).

このとき、電池蓋30では、図11に示すように、その長尺方向(X軸方向)で見て、一端側で対を為す両引掛爪部52bは、蓋収容空間26に設けられた開閉軸Amと間隔を置く位置で受入溝27に進入しており、他端側で対を為す両引掛爪部52bは、受入穴28内に進入した引掛片部53と間隔を置く位置で受入溝27に進入している。実施例1では、引掛片部53が受入穴28内に進入する位置と、他端側で対を為す両引掛爪部52bが受入溝27に進入する位置と、一端側で対を為す両引掛爪部52bが受入溝27に進入する位置と、蓋収容空間26に設けられた開閉軸Amと、が、電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)で見て互いに略等しい間隔に設定されている。   At this time, in the battery lid 30, as shown in FIG. 11, the two hooking claws 52 b that make a pair on one end side as viewed in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) are opened and closed provided in the lid housing space 26. The both hooking claw portions 52b that enter the receiving groove 27 at a position spaced apart from the axis Am and that are paired on the other end side are received groove at a position spaced from the hooking piece portion 53 that has entered the receiving hole 28. Entering 27. In the first embodiment, the position where the hooking piece portion 53 enters the receiving hole 28, the position where the both hooking claw portions 52b which make a pair on the other end side enter the receiving groove 27, and the both hooks which make a pair on the one end side. The position where the claw portion 52b enters the receiving groove 27 and the opening / closing axis Am provided in the lid housing space 26 are set at substantially equal intervals when viewed in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. ing.

この状態(操作部材51の固定位置)では、各引掛爪部52bが、受入溝27により電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)への移動が防止されているとともに、引掛片部53が受入穴28によりY軸方向の負側への移動が防止されている。すなわち、電池蓋30では、各引掛爪部52bと各受入溝27との干渉および引掛片部53と受入穴28との干渉により、閉蓋状態(図1参照)から開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた反発力に抗して内蓋部31を開口縁部25aへと押し付けている。このため、各引掛爪部52bと各受入溝27との干渉および引掛片部53と受入穴28との干渉により、電池蓋30が閉蓋状態(図1参照)で維持される。このことから、操作部材51および引掛部材52は、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた4つの受入溝27および受入穴28と協働して、ロック機構50を構成する。   In this state (fixed position of the operation member 51), each catching claw 52b is prevented from moving in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery cover 30 by the receiving groove 27, and the catching piece 53 is The receiving hole 28 prevents movement to the negative side in the Y-axis direction. That is, in the battery cover 30, the closed state (see FIG. 1) to the open state (see FIG. 2) due to the interference between the respective hooking claws 52 b and the respective receiving grooves 27 and the interference between the hooking piece 53 and the receiving hole 28. The inner lid portion 31 is pressed against the opening edge portion 25a against the repulsive force directed to. For this reason, the battery lid 30 is maintained in the closed state (see FIG. 1) due to the interference between the respective hooking claws 52b and the respective receiving grooves 27 and the interference between the hooking piece 53 and the receiving hole 28. Therefore, the operation member 51 and the hooking member 52 constitute the lock mechanism 50 in cooperation with the four receiving grooves 27 and the receiving holes 28 provided in the casing 11 (lid housing space 26).

この閉蓋状態(図1参照)の維持、すなわちロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態(図1参照)での固定を解除する場合、外蓋部32の操作用開口35からY軸方向の負側に突出された操作突起部55を、X軸方向の負側へと移動させる(図15の矢印A3参照)。すると、操作突起部55が設けられた操作部材51は、外蓋部32内において、固定位置(図11および図15参照)から、電池蓋30の長尺方向の一端側(X軸方向の正側)に変位されて解除位置(図10および図14参照)とされる。このとき、操作部材51の引掛片部53は、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)の受入穴28から後退(離脱)して、外蓋部32の突出用穴38内に存在して外蓋部32(電池蓋30)から突出しないものとされる(図2、図10および図14参照)。   When maintaining the closed state (see FIG. 1), that is, when releasing the battery cover 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 1) by the lock mechanism 50, the operation opening 35 of the outer lid portion 32 is operated in the Y-axis direction. The operating protrusion 55 protruding to the negative side of the X axis is moved to the negative side in the X-axis direction (see arrow A3 in FIG. 15). Then, the operation member 51 provided with the operation protrusion 55 is moved from the fixed position (see FIG. 11 and FIG. 15) to the one end side in the longitudinal direction of the battery cover 30 (positive in the X-axis direction). To the release position (see FIGS. 10 and 14). At this time, the hook piece 53 of the operating member 51 is retracted (removed) from the receiving hole 28 of the housing 11 (lid housing space 26) and is present in the protruding hole 38 of the outer lid portion 32. It is assumed that it does not protrude from the portion 32 (battery cover 30) (see FIGS. 2, 10, and 14).

また、操作部材51が固定位置からX軸方向の正側へと変位すると、その各解除側押壁部57が対応する引掛部材52の拡径部52cの近傍におけるZ軸方向の負側の位置を、X軸方向の正側へ向けて押す(図11および図12参照)。これにより、両引掛部材52は、外蓋部32の軸受部36に嵌め込まれた回転軸部52aを中心として、図10および図11の矢印A2とは反対方向(図10および図11を正面視して反時計回り)に回転する。その後、操作部材51を解除位置とすると、両引掛部材52は、拡径部52cの近傍におけるZ軸方向の正側の位置が、解除側止壁部59に接する姿勢まで回転される(図10および図12参照)。すると、各引掛部材52の両端の引掛爪部52bは、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)の各受入溝27から後退(離脱)して、外蓋部32の対応する突出用切欠39内に存在して外蓋部32(電池蓋30)から突出しないものとされる(図2、図10および図14参照)。   Further, when the operation member 51 is displaced from the fixed position to the positive side in the X-axis direction, each release-side push wall portion 57 is positioned on the negative side in the Z-axis direction in the vicinity of the enlarged diameter portion 52c of the corresponding hooking member 52. Is pushed toward the positive side in the X-axis direction (see FIGS. 11 and 12). Thereby, the both hooking members 52 are centered on the rotation shaft portion 52a fitted in the bearing portion 36 of the outer lid portion 32, and in the direction opposite to the arrow A2 in FIGS. 10 and 11 (see FIGS. 10 and 11 in front view). Rotate counterclockwise). Thereafter, when the operation member 51 is set to the release position, the two hooking members 52 are rotated to a position where the positive side position in the Z-axis direction in the vicinity of the enlarged diameter portion 52c is in contact with the release-side stop wall portion 59 (FIG. 10). And FIG. 12). Then, the hooking claws 52 b at both ends of each hooking member 52 are retracted (removed) from the respective receiving grooves 27 of the housing 11 (lid housing space 26), and in the corresponding protruding notches 39 of the outer lid 32. It exists and does not protrude from the outer lid portion 32 (battery lid 30) (see FIGS. 2, 10, and 14).

この状態では、電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)への移動を阻害するものがなくなる、すなわちロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態(図1参照)での固定が解除される。このため、電池蓋30は、電池室20を閉鎖する閉蓋状態(図1参照)から開閉軸Am回りに回転することが可能となり、電池室20を開放する開蓋状態(図2参照)とすることができる。このため、ロック機構50では、解除側押壁部57および固定側押壁部58が、電池蓋30の長尺方向で引掛部材52に接する突起部として機能するとともに、操作部材51の電池蓋30の長尺方向への平行移動を引掛部材52の回転軸部52aを中心とする回転に変換する変換部として機能する。   In this state, nothing obstructs the movement of the battery cover 30 in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction), that is, the lock mechanism 50 is released from being fixed in the closed state (see FIG. 1). . For this reason, the battery lid 30 can be rotated around the opening / closing axis Am from a closed state (see FIG. 1) in which the battery chamber 20 is closed, and an open state (see FIG. 2) in which the battery chamber 20 is opened. can do. For this reason, in the lock mechanism 50, the release-side pressing wall portion 57 and the fixed-side pressing wall portion 58 function as protrusions that contact the hooking member 52 in the longitudinal direction of the battery lid 30, and the battery lid 30 of the operation member 51. It functions as a conversion unit that converts the parallel movement in the longitudinal direction into rotation about the rotation shaft 52a of the hooking member 52.

本発明に係る撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、引掛部材52の両端に設けられた各引掛爪部52bを、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた各受入溝27に進入させることで、電池蓋30の閉蓋状態(図1参照)を維持することができるので、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に偏りなく押し当てることができる。これは、以下のことによる。ロック機構50では、引掛部材52が電池蓋30の短尺方向(Z軸方向)に沿う状態とされると、両端の引掛爪部52bが電池蓋30(その外蓋部32)から突出されて各受入溝27に進入される。このため、電池蓋30では、短尺方向に沿う同一の直線上で対を為す位置での引掛爪部52bと受入溝27との干渉により、閉蓋状態(図1参照)から開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた反発力に抗して内蓋部31が開口縁部25aへと押し付けてられている。このため、電池蓋30では、短尺方向での一方と他方とにおいて均等に電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てられることとなる。よって、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に偏りなく押し当てることができる。   In the imaging device 10 according to the present invention, in the lock mechanism 50, the respective hooking claws 52b provided at both ends of the hooking member 52 are caused to enter the respective receiving grooves 27 provided in the housing 11 (the lid housing space 26). Thus, since the closed state of the battery lid 30 (see FIG. 1) can be maintained, the battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion 31) is biased toward the storage port 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20. It can be pushed without. This is due to the following. In the locking mechanism 50, when the hooking member 52 is in a state along the short direction (Z-axis direction) of the battery lid 30, the hooking claws 52b at both ends protrude from the battery lid 30 (the outer lid portion 32) and It enters the receiving groove 27. For this reason, in the battery lid 30, the closed state (see FIG. 1) is changed from the closed state (see FIG. 1) due to the interference between the catching claw portions 52 b and the receiving groove 27 at the paired positions on the same straight line along the short direction. 2), the inner lid portion 31 is pressed against the opening edge 25a against the repulsive force. For this reason, in the battery cover 30, it will press against the accommodation opening 25 (the opening edge part 25a) of the battery chamber 20 equally in one side and the other in a short direction. Therefore, the battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion 31) can be pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20 without any bias.

また、撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、両端に各引掛爪部52bを有する引掛部材52が、電池蓋30の長尺方向に沿って複数(実施例1では2つ)設けられていることから、長尺方向で見た複数の位置を短尺方向の一方と他方とで均等に電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てることができるので、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に偏りなく押し当てることができる。   In the imaging device 10, the lock mechanism 50 is provided with a plurality (two in the first embodiment) of hook members 52 having the hook claws 52 b at both ends along the longitudinal direction of the battery lid 30. Since the plurality of positions viewed in the long direction can be equally pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge 25a) of the battery chamber 20 in one and the other in the short direction, the battery lid 30 (of which The lid portion 31) can be pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20 without deviation.

さらに、撮像装置10では、単一の操作突起部55を解除位置と固定位置との間で変位させるだけで、複数の引掛部材52の両引掛爪部52bが各受入溝27に干渉した状態とその解除との切り替え操作、すなわちロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態(図1参照)での固定とその解除との切り替え操作を行うことができるので、簡単な操作とすることができる。   Furthermore, in the imaging apparatus 10, both the hooking claw portions 52 b of the plurality of hooking members 52 interfere with the receiving grooves 27 only by displacing the single operation protrusion 55 between the release position and the fixed position. Since the switching operation with the release, that is, the switching operation between fixing and releasing the battery lid 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 1) by the lock mechanism 50 can be performed, the operation can be simplified.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、複数の引掛部材52の両引掛爪部52bを各受入溝27に干渉させることで、閉蓋状態(図1参照)から開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた反発力に抗して内蓋部31を開口縁部25aに押し付けていることから、各引掛爪部52b(各受入溝27)にかかる負荷を小さなものとしつつ、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に偏りなく押し当てることができる。このため、各引掛爪部52b(各受入溝27)において必要となる強度を低減することができるので、より簡易な構成とすることができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the lock mechanism 50, the both hooking claws 52 b of the plurality of hooking members 52 are caused to interfere with the respective receiving grooves 27, so that the closed state (see FIG. 1) is changed to the open state (see FIG. 2). Since the inner lid portion 31 is pressed against the opening edge portion 25a against the repulsive force directed to the battery lid 30, the load applied to each hooking claw portion 52b (each receiving groove 27) is reduced, while the battery lid 30 (of which The lid portion 31) can be pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20 without deviation. For this reason, since the intensity | strength required in each hooking nail | claw part 52b (each receiving groove 27) can be reduced, it can be set as a simpler structure.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、電池蓋30の長尺方向に沿って複数(実施例1では2つ)設けられた引掛部材52の両引掛爪部52bを各受入溝27に干渉させることで、長尺方向で見た複数の位置を短尺方向の一方と他方とで均等に電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てることができるので、電池蓋30における剛性を抑制しつつ、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に偏りなく押し当てることができる。これは、以下のことによる。実施例1の電池蓋30において、蓋部材における回転可能に支持された一端とは反対側の他端に爪部を設けるとともに、開口縁部の他端に溝部を設け、操作部の操作により爪部を変位させて溝部に爪部を引っ掛けるだけの構成のロック機構を採用したものとする。すると、電池蓋30は、長尺な形状であるとともに長尺方向の両端位置で開口縁部に押し当てられた状態となり、長尺方向での両端位置のみに開口縁部へ向けた押し当て力が作用することから、開口縁部の全体から反発力を受けることにより開口縁部へと押し当てられていない中間箇所が当該開口縁部から離間するように湾曲することが考えられる。すると、電池蓋30では、電池室の開口縁部への押し当て状態に偏りが生じていることから、電池室を適切に遮蔽および保護することが困難となってしまう。この場合、電池蓋30では、例えば強度の高い金属材料で形成することや厚さ寸法の増加等により剛性を高めることで湾曲変形することを防止することができるが、大きさ寸法の増大や、閉蓋状態とするために必要な力の増大や、コストの増大を招いてしまう。これに対し、実施例1の撮像装置10では、電池蓋30の長尺方向に沿って複数設けられた引掛部材52の両引掛爪部52bを各受入溝27に干渉させていることから、長尺方向での複数の位置における短尺方向の一方と他方とに開口縁部25aへ向けた押し当て力を作用させることができるので、電池蓋30の剛性だけに頼ることなく当該電池蓋30を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に偏りなく押し当てることができる。よって、電池蓋30では、長尺方向での複数の位置における短尺方向の一方と他方とでの開口縁部25aへ向けた押し当て力を勘案した剛性とすれば良いので、上記した構成に比較して必要な剛性を抑制することができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the lock mechanism 50, both the hooking claws 52 b of the hooking members 52 provided in a plurality (two in the first embodiment) along the longitudinal direction of the battery lid 30 are caused to interfere with each receiving groove 27. Thus, the plurality of positions viewed in the long direction can be uniformly pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20 in one and the other in the short direction. The battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion 31) can be pressed against the storage port 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20 without being biased while being suppressed. This is due to the following. In the battery lid 30 of the first embodiment, a claw portion is provided on the other end of the lid member opposite to the one end rotatably supported, and a groove portion is provided on the other end of the opening edge portion. It is assumed that a lock mechanism having a configuration in which the part is displaced and the claw part is hooked on the groove part is employed. Then, the battery lid 30 has a long shape and is pressed against the opening edge at both end positions in the long direction, and the pressing force toward the opening edge only at both end positions in the long direction. Therefore, it is conceivable that the intermediate portion that is not pressed against the opening edge is curved so as to be separated from the opening edge by receiving a repulsive force from the entire opening edge. Then, in the battery lid 30, since the biased state against the opening edge of the battery chamber is biased, it is difficult to appropriately shield and protect the battery chamber. In this case, the battery lid 30 can be prevented from being bent and deformed by increasing rigidity by, for example, forming it with a high-strength metal material or increasing the thickness dimension, etc. This increases the force required for the closed state and increases the cost. On the other hand, in the imaging device 10 according to the first embodiment, the two hooking claws 52b of the hooking member 52 provided along the long direction of the battery lid 30 are caused to interfere with each receiving groove 27. Since a pressing force toward the opening edge 25a can be applied to one and the other in the short direction at a plurality of positions in the scale direction, the battery cover 30 can be connected to the battery without relying only on the rigidity of the battery cover 30. The chamber 20 can be pressed against the storage opening 25 (opening edge 25a) without any deviation. Therefore, the battery lid 30 only needs to have rigidity considering the pressing force toward the opening edge 25a at one and the other in the short direction at a plurality of positions in the long direction. Thus, necessary rigidity can be suppressed.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、操作部材51の電池蓋30の長尺方向への平行移動を、変換部(実施例1では解除側押壁部57および固定側押壁部58)で複数(実施例1では2つ)の引掛部材52の回転軸部52a(固定軸線52d)を中心とする回転に変換することができるので、簡易な構成で操作突起部55の長尺方向(X軸方向)への操作により電池蓋30の閉蓋状態(図1参照)での固定とその解除との切り替えを可能とすることができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the lock mechanism 50, a plurality of parallel movements of the operation member 51 in the longitudinal direction of the battery lid 30 are performed by the conversion unit (the release-side pressing wall portion 57 and the fixed-side pressing wall portion 58 in Example 1). Since the rotation can be converted to rotation about the rotation shaft portion 52a (fixed axis 52d) of the hook members 52 (two in the first embodiment), the longitudinal direction (X axis) of the operation projection portion 55 can be achieved with a simple configuration. The operation in the direction) can be switched between fixing and releasing the battery cover 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 1).

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、操作部材51の電池蓋30の長尺方向への平行移動を引掛部材52の回転軸部52aを中心とする回転に変換する変換部が、回転軸部52a回りに回転可能とされた引掛部材52に対して、その回転軸部52aからZ軸方向(短尺方向)に偏芯した位置を解除側押壁部57もしくは固定側押壁部58で押すものであることから、簡易な構成とすることができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the lock mechanism 50, the conversion unit that converts the parallel movement of the operation member 51 in the longitudinal direction of the battery cover 30 into rotation about the rotation shaft portion 52 a of the hooking member 52 is a rotation shaft portion 52 a. With respect to the hooking member 52 that can be rotated around, the release-side pressing wall portion 57 or the fixed-side pressing wall portion 58 pushes the position eccentric in the Z-axis direction (short direction) from the rotation shaft portion 52a. Therefore, a simple configuration can be obtained.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50における変換部が、引掛部材52に対して、その回転軸部52aからZ軸方向(短尺方向)に偏芯した位置を解除側押壁部57もしくは固定側押壁部58で長尺方向に押すことにより、操作部材51の長尺方向への平行移動を引掛部材52の回転軸部52aを中心とする回転に変換するものであることから、操作部材51における長尺方向での複数の箇所に同様の構成を設けるだけで、単一の操作部材51において複数の引掛部材52に対応する変換部を形成することができる。   In the imaging device 10, the position where the conversion unit in the lock mechanism 50 is eccentric with respect to the hooking member 52 in the Z-axis direction (short direction) from the rotation shaft portion 52 a is the release-side pressing wall portion 57 or the fixed-side pressing wall. By pushing the portion 58 in the longitudinal direction, the parallel movement of the operating member 51 in the longitudinal direction is converted into rotation about the rotation shaft portion 52 a of the hooking member 52. The conversion part corresponding to the some hooking member 52 can be formed in the single operation member 51 only by providing the same structure in the several location in a scale direction.

撮像装置10では、操作部材51における長尺方向での複数の箇所に同様の構成を設けるだけで、単一の操作部材51において複数の引掛部材52に対応する変換部を形成することができるので、引掛部材52の個数を適宜設定することができる。   In the imaging apparatus 10, the conversion unit corresponding to the plurality of hooking members 52 can be formed in the single operation member 51 only by providing a similar configuration at a plurality of locations in the longitudinal direction of the operation member 51. The number of hook members 52 can be set as appropriate.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50における変換部が、各引掛部材52の拡径部52cの近傍において、X軸方向の負側に解除側押壁部57が接しているとともにX軸方向の正側に固定側押壁部58が接して構成されていることから、操作部材51が電池蓋30のX軸方向(長尺方向)の正側に移動されたときとX軸方向(長尺方向)の負側に移動されたときとで、各引掛部材52の回転軸部52a回りの回転方向を逆転させることができる。このため、簡易な構成で操作部材51の長尺方向への変位で電池蓋30の閉蓋状態(図1参照)での固定とその解除との切り替えを可能とすることができる。   In the imaging device 10, the conversion unit in the lock mechanism 50 is in the vicinity of the enlarged diameter portion 52 c of each hooking member 52, the release side pushing wall portion 57 is in contact with the negative side in the X axis direction, and the positive side in the X axis direction. Since the fixed-side push wall 58 is in contact with the operation member 51 when the operation member 51 is moved to the positive side of the battery cover 30 in the X-axis direction (long direction) and the X-axis direction (long direction). The direction of rotation of each hooking member 52 around the rotation shaft portion 52a can be reversed when it is moved to the negative side. For this reason, it is possible to switch between fixing and releasing the battery lid 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 1) by displacement of the operation member 51 in the longitudinal direction with a simple configuration.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、操作部材51が固定位置とされると、その引掛片部53が筐体11(蓋収容空間26)に設けられた受入穴28内に進入して厚さ方向(Y軸方向)への移動が防止されることから、より均等に電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てることができる。これは、以下のことによる。電池蓋30は、その長尺方向(X軸方向)で見た一端部(保護吸収部33の一端部)が、蓋収容空間26に対して開閉軸Amを中心に回転可能に、当該蓋収容空間26の一端側に設けられている。また、引掛片部53は、電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)で見た他端部から、長尺方向へと突出されて筐体11(蓋収容空間26)の受入穴28に進入される。このため、電池蓋30では、長尺方向に沿う同一の直線上で対を為す位置で、開閉軸Amを介する蓋収容空間26への取り付けおよび引掛片部53と受入穴28との干渉により、閉蓋状態(図1参照)から開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた反発力に抗して内蓋部31が開口縁部25aへと押し付けてられている。このため、電池蓋30では、短尺方向での一方と他方とに加えて、長尺方向での一端と他端とにおいて均等に電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てられることとなる。よって、より均等に電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てることができる。   In the imaging device 10, when the operation member 51 is set to the fixed position in the lock mechanism 50, the hooking piece 53 enters the receiving hole 28 provided in the housing 11 (the lid housing space 26) and has a thickness. Since movement in the direction (Y-axis direction) is prevented, the battery lid 30 (its inner lid portion 31) can be more evenly pressed against the storage opening 25 (its opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20. . This is due to the following. The battery cover 30 has one end portion (one end portion of the protective absorption portion 33) viewed in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) rotatable relative to the cover housing space 26 about the opening / closing axis Am. It is provided on one end side of the space 26. In addition, the hook piece 53 is projected in the long direction from the other end portion of the battery lid 30 as viewed in the long direction (X-axis direction) and is received in the receiving hole 28 of the housing 11 (lid housing space 26). Entered. For this reason, in the battery lid 30, at the position where a pair is formed on the same straight line along the longitudinal direction, the battery lid 30 is attached to the lid housing space 26 via the opening / closing axis Am and interference between the hook piece 53 and the receiving hole 28, The inner lid portion 31 is pressed against the opening edge 25a against the repulsive force from the closed state (see FIG. 1) to the open state (see FIG. 2). For this reason, in the battery lid 30, in addition to one and the other in the short direction, the battery lid 30 is equally pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge 25a) of the battery chamber 20 at one end and the other end in the long direction. Will be. Therefore, the battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion 31) can be more evenly pressed against the storage opening 25 (the opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、引掛片部53が受入穴28内に進入する位置と、他端側で対を為す両引掛爪部52bが受入溝27に進入する位置と、一端側で対を為す両引掛爪部52bが受入溝27に進入する位置と、蓋収容空間26に設けられた開閉軸Amと、が、電池蓋30の長尺方向(X軸方向)で見て互いに略等しい間隔に設定されていることから、より均等に電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てることができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the lock mechanism 50, the position where the hooking piece 53 enters the receiving hole 28, the position where the two hooking claws 52 b which make a pair on the other end side enter the receiving groove 27, and one end side. The position where the pair of hooking claws 52b enter the receiving groove 27 and the opening / closing axis Am provided in the lid housing space 26 are substantially the same when viewed in the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) of the battery lid 30. Since the intervals are set to be equal, the battery lid 30 (its inner lid portion 31) can be more evenly pressed against the storage opening 25 (its opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50において、4つの受入溝27と受入穴28とが、筐体11(蓋収容空間26)における等しい高さ位置(Y軸方向での設定位置)に設けられていることから、より均等に電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てることができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the lock mechanism 50, the four receiving grooves 27 and the receiving holes 28 are provided at equal height positions (set positions in the Y-axis direction) in the housing 11 (lid housing space 26). Thus, the battery lid 30 (its inner lid portion 31) can be pressed evenly against the storage opening 25 (its opening edge portion 25a) of the battery chamber 20.

撮像装置10では、ロック機構50がより均等に電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)を電池室20の収納口25(その開口縁部25a)に押し当てた状態でその電池蓋30を固定することができることから、その内蓋部31に設けられた封止部材34をより適切に電池室20の収納口25の開口縁部25aに密接させることができる。このため、封止部材34による水密性をより確実なものとすることができる。すなわち、防水機能を向上させることができる。   In the imaging device 10, the lock mechanism 50 fixes the battery lid 30 in a state where the battery lid 30 (its inner lid portion 31) is pressed evenly against the storage opening 25 (its opening edge portion 25 a) of the battery chamber 20. Therefore, the sealing member 34 provided on the inner lid portion 31 can be more appropriately brought into close contact with the opening edge portion 25a of the storage port 25 of the battery chamber 20. For this reason, the watertightness by the sealing member 34 can be made more reliable. That is, the waterproof function can be improved.

撮像装置10では、引掛片部53において、突出端部の表面側(Y軸方向の負側)が切り欠かれて、突出端部が先端に向かうに連れて厚さ寸法(Y軸方向での大きさ寸法)が漸減していることから、受入穴28(その蓋収容空間26への開口端部)に引っ掛かることを防止することができる。   In the imaging device 10, in the hooking piece portion 53, the surface side (negative side in the Y-axis direction) of the protruding end portion is notched, and the thickness dimension (in the Y-axis direction increases) as the protruding end portion moves toward the tip. Since the size (size) is gradually reduced, it is possible to prevent catching on the receiving hole 28 (the opening end to the lid housing space 26).

撮像装置10では、各引掛爪部52bにおいて、短尺方向で見た一端側が、短尺方向の外側に向かうに連れて厚さ寸法が漸減していることから、受入溝27(その開口端部)に引っ掛かることを防止することができる。   In the imaging device 10, in each hooking claw portion 52 b, the one end side viewed in the short direction gradually decreases in thickness toward the outside in the short direction, so that the receiving groove 27 (the opening end thereof) is formed. It can be prevented from being caught.

したがって、本発明に係る撮像装置10では、ロック機構50により簡単な操作で蓋部材としての電池蓋30を適切に閉蓋状態で固定することができる。   Therefore, in the imaging device 10 according to the present invention, the battery lid 30 as the lid member can be appropriately fixed in a closed state by a simple operation by the lock mechanism 50.

次に、本発明の実施例2に係る撮像装置10Bについて、図17および図21を用いて説明する。この実施例2は、撮像装置10Bにおける電池室20Bの構成が実施例1とは異なる例である。この実施例2の撮像装置10Bおよびその電池室20Bは、基本的な構成は上記した実施例1の撮像装置10およびその電池室20と同様であることから、等しい構成の個所には同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略する。図17は、実施例2に係る撮像装置10Bの電池室20Bの構成を説明するための図2と同様の説明図である。図18は、図17に示す矢印A5で見た電池室20Bの特徴部分を部分的に示す説明図である。図19は、電池室20Bにおいて反発突起41が設けられた様子を示す説明図である。図20は、反発突起41を示す説明図である。図21は、電池室20Bにおける電池蓋30の開閉に伴う作用を説明するための説明図であり、(a)はロック機構50による電池蓋30の固定が解除されている様子を示し、(b)はロック機構50により電池蓋30を閉蓋状態で固定した様子を示している。   Next, an image pickup apparatus 10B according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The second embodiment is an example in which the configuration of the battery chamber 20B in the imaging device 10B is different from the first embodiment. Since the basic configuration of the imaging device 10B and the battery chamber 20B of the second embodiment is the same as that of the imaging device 10 and the battery chamber 20 of the first embodiment described above, the same reference numerals are given to the parts having the same configuration. A detailed description thereof will be omitted. FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram similar to FIG. 2 for describing the configuration of the battery chamber 20B of the imaging device 10B according to the second embodiment. FIG. 18 is an explanatory view partially showing a characteristic portion of the battery chamber 20B as seen by an arrow A5 shown in FIG. FIG. 19 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the repulsion protrusion 41 is provided in the battery chamber 20B. FIG. 20 is an explanatory view showing the repulsion protrusion 41. FIG. 21 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the action associated with the opening and closing of the battery lid 30 in the battery chamber 20B. FIG. 21A shows a state in which the battery lid 30 is unfixed by the lock mechanism 50, and FIG. ) Shows a state in which the battery cover 30 is fixed in the closed state by the lock mechanism 50.

実施例2に係る撮像装置10Bの電池室20Bでは、図17から図19に示すように、反発突起41が設けられている。この反発突起41は、弾性変形が可能とされており、閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)とされた電池蓋30に、開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けて押す力(押圧力)を作用させるものである。反発突起41は、電池室20Bにおいて電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)に沿って、そのY軸方向の負側へ向けて突起されて設けられている。この反発突起41は、電池室20Bにおいて、電池蓋30が閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)とされると、その内蓋部31の上端面31a(Y軸方向正側の面)に、厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で接する位置に設けられている。実施例2では、反発突起41は、電池蓋30が開蓋状態(図2参照)とされた際、その内蓋部31の上端面31aにおける他端部(X軸方向の負側の端部)に接する位置に設定されている。   In the battery chamber 20B of the image pickup apparatus 10B according to the second embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 17 to 19, a repulsion protrusion 41 is provided. The repulsive protrusion 41 is elastically deformable, and is a force (pressing force) that pushes the battery cover 30 in the closed state (see FIG. 21B) toward the open state (see FIG. 2). ). The repulsion protrusion 41 is provided to protrude toward the negative side in the Y-axis direction along the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 in the battery chamber 20B. When the battery cover 30 is closed (see FIG. 21B) in the battery chamber 20B, the repulsion protrusion 41 is formed on the upper end surface 31a (the surface on the Y axis direction positive side) of the inner cover portion 31. , At a position in contact with the thickness direction (Y-axis direction). In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 has the other end portion (the end portion on the negative side in the X-axis direction) of the upper end surface 31a of the inner lid portion 31 when the battery lid 30 is in the open state (see FIG. 2). ).

反発突起41は、実施例2では、電池室20Bを構成する部材とは別の部品で構成されており、弾性変形が可能な材料から形成されている。その反発突起41は、図20に示すように、圧縮部41aと嵌合部41bと抜止部41cとを有する。圧縮部41aは、テーパー状の截頭円錐体形状を呈し、電池室20Bにおいて電池蓋30の厚さ方向(Y軸方向)で突起される箇所となる。嵌合部41bおよび抜止部41cは、電池室20Bにおける表側壁部20aに設けられた取付穴20b(図19参照)に嵌め込まれる箇所である。その表側壁部20aは、電池室20Bにおいて、電池21の装填箇所および記録媒体22の装填箇所を規定するとともに、HDMI端子23およびUSB端子24が設けられた箇所である(図17参照)。その嵌合部41bは、全体に円柱形状を呈し、圧縮部41aに等しい中心軸線とされている。嵌合部41bは、一端が圧縮部41aに連続され、他端が抜止部41cに連続されている。その抜止部41cは、全体に円柱形状を呈し、圧縮部41aに等しい中心軸線とされて、嵌合部41bよりも大きな径寸法とされている。   In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 is made of a component different from the member constituting the battery chamber 20B, and is formed of a material that can be elastically deformed. As shown in FIG. 20, the repulsion protrusion 41 has a compression part 41a, a fitting part 41b, and a retaining part 41c. The compression portion 41a has a tapered truncated cone shape and is a portion that protrudes in the thickness direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 in the battery chamber 20B. The fitting portion 41b and the retaining portion 41c are places that are fitted into mounting holes 20b (see FIG. 19) provided in the front side wall portion 20a in the battery chamber 20B. The front side wall portion 20a is a location where the battery 21 and the recording medium 22 are specified in the battery chamber 20B, and the HDMI terminal 23 and the USB terminal 24 are provided (see FIG. 17). The fitting portion 41b has a cylindrical shape as a whole, and has a central axis equal to the compression portion 41a. The fitting part 41b has one end continuous to the compression part 41a and the other end continuous to the retaining part 41c. The retaining portion 41c has a cylindrical shape as a whole, has a central axis equal to the compression portion 41a, and has a larger diameter than the fitting portion 41b.

上述した取付穴20bは、図19に示すように、嵌合部41bおよび抜止部41cに適合する穴形状とされている。この反発突起41は、電池室20B側(Y軸方向の正側)から表側壁部20aの取付穴20bに圧縮部41aを挿入し、その取付穴20bに嵌合部41bおよび抜止部41cが嵌め込まれる。その後、反発突起41は、下端(抜止部41cのY軸方向の正側の端面)に受部材20cが宛がわれることにより、電池室20Bに取り付けられる。その受部材20cは、電池室20Bにおいて、装填される電池21や記録媒体22と干渉することのない箇所に取り付けられる。   The mounting hole 20b described above has a hole shape that fits the fitting portion 41b and the retaining portion 41c as shown in FIG. The repulsion protrusion 41 inserts the compression part 41a into the attachment hole 20b of the front side wall part 20a from the battery chamber 20B side (positive side in the Y-axis direction), and the fitting part 41b and the retaining part 41c are fitted into the attachment hole 20b. It is. Then, the repulsion protrusion 41 is attached to the battery chamber 20B by the receiving member 20c being addressed to the lower end (the end surface on the positive side in the Y-axis direction of the retaining portion 41c). The receiving member 20c is attached to a location in the battery chamber 20B that does not interfere with the battery 21 and the recording medium 22 to be loaded.

この反発突起41では、圧縮部41aが表側壁部20a(その取付穴20b)から突出されている。また、反発突起41は、嵌合部41bおよび抜止部41cが取付穴20bに嵌め込まれることにより、蓋収容空間26側に抜け出ることが防止されている。さらに、反発突起41は、下端(抜止部41cのY軸方向の正側の端面)に受部材20cが宛がわれることにより、電池室20B側に抜け出ることが防止されている。   In this repulsion protrusion 41, the compression part 41a protrudes from the front side wall part 20a (the attachment hole 20b). Further, the repulsion protrusion 41 is prevented from coming out to the lid housing space 26 side by fitting the fitting portion 41b and the retaining portion 41c into the mounting hole 20b. Further, the repulsion protrusion 41 is prevented from coming out to the battery chamber 20B side when the receiving member 20c is addressed to the lower end (the end surface on the positive side in the Y-axis direction of the retaining portion 41c).

この撮像装置10Bでは、電池蓋30が開蓋状態である場合、実施例1の撮像装置10と特に変わることはない。撮像装置10Bでは、電池蓋30が開蓋状態(図21(a)参照)から閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)へ向けて開閉軸Am回りに回転させると、内蓋部31が蓋収容空間26の反発突起41の圧縮部41aに接する。その後、電池蓋30を閉蓋状態へ向けてさらに開閉軸Am回りに回転させると、すなわち電池蓋30(内蓋部31)をY軸方向正側へと移動させると、反発突起41(主にその圧縮部41a)が電池室20B内で圧縮され、封止部材34が収納口25の内方へと押し込まれつつ内蓋部31と開口縁部25aとの間で適切に圧縮されて、電池蓋30が閉蓋状態とされる(図21(b)参照)。このため、撮像装置10Bでは、反発突起41が内蓋部31(電池蓋30)により圧縮されていることを除くと、実施例1の撮像装置10と同様に電池蓋30を閉蓋状態とすることができる(図21(b)参照)。この電池蓋30は、操作突起部55への操作により操作部材51が固定位置とされることで、ロック機構50により閉蓋状態が適切に維持される。   In the imaging device 10B, when the battery cover 30 is in the open state, there is no particular difference from the imaging device 10 of the first embodiment. In the imaging device 10B, when the battery cover 30 is rotated about the opening / closing axis Am from the open state (see FIG. 21A) to the closed state (see FIG. 21B), the inner cover portion 31 is closed. It contacts the compression part 41a of the repulsion protrusion 41 of the accommodation space 26. Thereafter, when the battery lid 30 is further rotated about the opening / closing axis Am toward the closed state, that is, when the battery lid 30 (inner lid portion 31) is moved to the Y axis direction positive side, the repulsive protrusion 41 (mainly The compression portion 41a) is compressed in the battery chamber 20B, and the sealing member 34 is appropriately compressed between the inner lid portion 31 and the opening edge portion 25a while being pushed inward of the storage port 25, so that the battery The lid 30 is brought into a closed state (see FIG. 21B). For this reason, in the imaging device 10B, the battery lid 30 is closed as in the imaging device 10 of the first embodiment, except that the repulsion protrusion 41 is compressed by the inner lid portion 31 (battery lid 30). (See FIG. 21 (b)). The battery cover 30 is appropriately maintained in the closed state by the lock mechanism 50 when the operation member 51 is set to the fixed position by the operation on the operation protrusion 55.

この電池室20Bを開放する場合、操作突起部55への操作により操作部材51を解除位置として、ロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態での固定を解除する。すると、電池蓋30では、内蓋部31が反発突起41から開蓋状態へ向けた押圧力を受けている、すなわちY軸方向の負側へ向けて押す力を受けていることから、電池室20Bを閉鎖する閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)から開閉軸Am回りに回転させることを容易なものとすることができる。この電池蓋30を、電池室20Bを閉鎖する閉蓋状態から開閉軸Am回りに回転されて、開蓋状態(図2参照)とすることにより、電池室20Bを開放することができる。   When the battery chamber 20B is opened, the operation member 51 is set to the release position by operating the operation protrusion 55, and the lock of the battery cover 30 in the closed state by the lock mechanism 50 is released. Then, in the battery lid 30, the inner lid portion 31 receives a pressing force toward the opened state from the repulsive protrusion 41, that is, receives a pressing force toward the negative side in the Y-axis direction. It can be easily rotated around the opening / closing axis Am from the closed state (see FIG. 21B) in which 20B is closed. The battery chamber 20B can be opened by rotating the battery lid 30 around the opening / closing axis Am from the closed state in which the battery chamber 20B is closed to the open state (see FIG. 2).

その反発突起41は、実施例2では、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)に対して、閉蓋状態への開閉軸Am回りの回転を阻害することのない大きさの押圧力を作用させるように、材質(弾性率)および大きさ寸法が適宜設定されている。ここで、閉蓋状態への回転を阻害することのない大きさの押圧力とは、閉蓋状態とするために過度の力を必要としないことを言い、目安として、操作突起部55への操作により操作部材51を解除位置と固定位置との間で平行移動させてロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態での固定とその解除とを円滑に行うことを可能とすることを言う。その円滑に行うとは、例えば、第三者に電池蓋30を閉蓋状態で抑えてもらうことなく、ロック機構50による固定とその解除とを行うことができることを言う。反発突起41は、実施例2では、ロック機構50により閉蓋状態で固定された状態から、それが解除された状態へと移行した際、電池蓋30を閉蓋状態からほとんど移動させることのない(ホップアップさせることのない)大きさの押圧力に設定されている。すなわち、反発突起41は、後述するように、電池蓋30(内蓋部31)の開閉方向(Y軸方向)に直交する方向(X−Z平面に沿う方向)で封止部材34と開口縁部25aとが密着された際、その密着した状態を解除することのない大きさの押圧力に設定されている。この反発突起41は、実施例2では、閉蓋状態とされた電池蓋30の内蓋部31に対して、開閉方向(Y軸方向)で見て2〜3mmの長さ寸法で圧縮部41aが干渉する大きさ寸法に設定されている。   In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 causes the battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion 31) to exert a pressing force having a magnitude that does not hinder the rotation around the opening / closing axis Am to the closed state. As described above, the material (elastic modulus) and the size are set as appropriate. Here, the pressing force having a magnitude that does not hinder the rotation to the closed state means that an excessive force is not required to make the closed state. It means that the operation member 51 is translated between the release position and the fixed position by the operation, so that the lock mechanism 50 can smoothly fix and release the battery cover 30 in the closed state. To perform smoothly means, for example, that the lock mechanism 50 can be fixed and released without a third party holding the battery cover 30 in the closed state. In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 hardly moves the battery cover 30 from the closed state when the state is shifted from the state fixed by the lock mechanism 50 in the closed state to the released state. It is set to a large pressing force (without hopping up). That is, as will be described later, the repulsion protrusion 41 has an opening edge with the sealing member 34 in a direction (direction along the XZ plane) orthogonal to the opening / closing direction (Y-axis direction) of the battery lid 30 (inner lid portion 31). When the portion 25a is brought into close contact with the portion 25a, the pressing force is set so as not to release the contact state. In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 has a length of 2 to 3 mm as viewed in the opening / closing direction (Y-axis direction) with respect to the inner lid portion 31 of the battery lid 30 in the closed state. Is set to a size that causes interference.

実施例2の撮像装置10Bでは、基本的に実施例1の撮像装置10と同様の構成であることから、基本的に実施例1と同様の効果を得ることができる。   Since the imaging apparatus 10B according to the second embodiment has basically the same configuration as that of the imaging apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment, the same effects as those in the first embodiment can be basically obtained.

それに加えて、実施例2の撮像装置10Bでは、蓋収容空間26に反発突起41が設けられていることから、ロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態での固定を解除した後に、閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)から開蓋状態へ向けて電池蓋30を開閉軸Am回りに回転させることを容易なものとすることができる。これは以下のことによる。電池蓋30では、封止部材34が収納口25の内方へと押し込まれつつ内蓋部31と開口縁部25aとの間で適切に圧縮されて、その封止部材34が開口縁部25aに密接されて閉蓋状態とされている(図21(b)参照)。このため、封止部材34は、閉蓋状態では、収納口25の内方へと部分的に嵌まり込むように圧縮されており、開口縁部25aに対して電池蓋30(内蓋部31)の開閉方向(Y軸方向)とは直交する方向(X−Z平面に沿う方向)で密接されていることとなる(図15、図16および図21(b)参照)。このため、電池蓋30(内蓋部31)では、閉蓋状態が長時間維持されていると、封止部材34と開口縁部25aとが上記した直交方向(X−Z平面に沿う方向)で密着された状態となることが考えられる。このため、ロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態での固定を解除しても、電池蓋30を閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)から開蓋状態へ向けて開閉軸Am回りに回転させることが困難となる場面が生じ得る。これに対し、実施例2の撮像装置10Bでは、蓋収容空間26に反発突起41を設けていることにより、閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)とされた電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)に対して開蓋状態(図2参照)(Y軸方向負側)へ向けた押圧力を作用させることができる。ここで、反発突起41は、内蓋部31(電池蓋30)との間でY軸方向すなわち電池蓋30(内蓋部31)の開閉方向に圧縮されるものであることから、閉蓋状態が長時間維持されても、電池蓋30(その内蓋部31)に対して開蓋状態(図2参照)へ向けた押圧力を作用させることができる。よって、撮像装置10Bでは、閉蓋状態(図21(b)参照)から開蓋状態へ向けて電池蓋30を開閉軸Am回りに回転させることを容易なものとすることができる。   In addition, in the imaging device 10B according to the second embodiment, since the rebound protrusion 41 is provided in the lid housing space 26, after the battery lid 30 is fixed in the closed state by the lock mechanism 50, the lid is closed. It is possible to easily rotate the battery cover 30 around the opening / closing axis Am from the state (see FIG. 21B) toward the open state. This is due to the following. In the battery lid 30, the sealing member 34 is appropriately compressed between the inner lid portion 31 and the opening edge portion 25 a while being pushed inward of the storage opening 25, and the sealing member 34 is opened to the opening edge portion 25 a. And is in a closed state (see FIG. 21B). For this reason, in the closed state, the sealing member 34 is compressed so as to partially fit inward of the storage opening 25, and the battery lid 30 (inner lid portion 31) with respect to the opening edge portion 25 a. ) In the direction orthogonal to the opening / closing direction (Y-axis direction) (direction along the XZ plane) (see FIGS. 15, 16 and 21B). For this reason, in the battery lid 30 (inner lid portion 31), when the closed state is maintained for a long time, the sealing member 34 and the opening edge portion 25a are in the orthogonal direction (the direction along the XZ plane) described above. It is conceivable that the contact state is brought about. For this reason, even if the fixing of the battery cover 30 in the closed state by the lock mechanism 50 is released, the battery cover 30 is moved around the opening / closing axis Am from the closed state (see FIG. 21B) to the open state. There may be situations where it is difficult to rotate. On the other hand, in the imaging device 10B according to the second embodiment, the battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion thereof) in the closed state (see FIG. 21B) is provided by providing the repulsive protrusion 41 in the lid housing space 26. 31), a pressing force toward the open state (see FIG. 2) (the Y axis direction negative side) can be applied. Here, the repulsion protrusion 41 is compressed in the Y-axis direction, that is, in the opening / closing direction of the battery lid 30 (inner lid portion 31) with the inner lid portion 31 (battery lid 30). Can be applied to the battery lid 30 (the inner lid portion 31) with a pressing force toward the open lid state (see FIG. 2). Therefore, in the imaging device 10B, it is possible to easily rotate the battery cover 30 about the opening / closing axis Am from the closed state (see FIG. 21B) toward the open state.

また、実施例2の撮像装置10Bでは、反発突起41が、閉蓋状態への回転を阻害することのない大きさの押圧力に設定されていることから、電池蓋30を閉蓋状態とすることを容易なものとしつつ、ロック機構50による電池蓋30の閉蓋状態での固定とその解除とを円滑に行うことができる。特に、実施例2では、反発突起41は、ロック機構50により閉蓋状態で固定された状態から、それが解除された状態へと移行した際、電池蓋30を閉蓋状態からほとんど移動させることのない大きさの押圧力に設定されていることから、閉蓋状態とすることとロック機構50の操作とをより容易なものとすることができる。   Further, in the imaging device 10B according to the second embodiment, since the repulsion protrusion 41 is set to a pressing force that does not hinder the rotation to the closed state, the battery cover 30 is set to the closed state. While facilitating this, it is possible to smoothly fix and release the battery lid 30 in the closed state by the lock mechanism 50. In particular, in the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 moves the battery cover 30 from the closed state almost when it is shifted from the state fixed by the lock mechanism 50 in the closed state to the released state. Therefore, the closed state and the operation of the lock mechanism 50 can be made easier.

さらに、実施例2の撮像装置10Bでは、反発突起41が、開蓋状態(図2参照)とされた電池蓋30の内蓋部31の上端面31aにおける他端部(X軸方向の負側の端部)に接する位置に設定されていることから、反発突起41における圧縮された状態からの復帰する力(弾性率および圧縮量)をより小さく設定しても、電池蓋30に対して適切な大きさの押圧力を作用させることができるので、閉蓋状態とすることとロック機構50の操作とをより容易なものとすることができる。   Furthermore, in the imaging device 10B of the second embodiment, the repulsive protrusion 41 has the other end portion (the negative side in the X-axis direction) of the upper end surface 31a of the inner lid portion 31 of the battery lid 30 in the opened state (see FIG. 2). Therefore, even if the return force (elastic modulus and compression amount) of the rebound protrusion 41 from the compressed state is set smaller, it is appropriate for the battery lid 30. Since a large pressing force can be applied, the closed state and the operation of the lock mechanism 50 can be made easier.

したがって、実施例2の撮像装置10Bでは、ロック機構50Bにより簡単な操作で蓋部材としての電池蓋30を適切に閉蓋状態で固定することができる。   Therefore, in the imaging device 10B of the second embodiment, the battery lid 30 as the lid member can be appropriately fixed in a closed state by a simple operation by the lock mechanism 50B.

なお、実施例2では、反発突起41が電池室20Bを構成する部材とは別の部品で構成されていたが、閉蓋状態とされた電池蓋30に開蓋状態へ向けた押圧力を作用させるものであれば、電池室20Bを構成する部材と一体的に形成してもよく(例えば、表側壁部20aに反発突起としての突起部を一体的に形成する)、上記した実施例2に限定されるものではない。   In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 is made of a component different from the member constituting the battery chamber 20B. However, the pressing force directed to the open state is applied to the battery cover 30 in the closed state. If so, it may be formed integrally with a member constituting the battery chamber 20B (for example, a protrusion as a repulsive protrusion is integrally formed on the front side wall portion 20a). It is not limited.

また、実施例2では、反発突起41を弾性変形が可能な材料で形成していたが、電池蓋30の内蓋部31(そのうちの少なくとも反発突起が接する箇所)を弾性変形が可能な材料で形成してもよく、上記した実施例2に限定されるものではない。   In the second embodiment, the repulsion protrusion 41 is formed of a material that can be elastically deformed. However, the inner lid portion 31 of the battery cover 30 (at least the portion where the rebound protrusion is in contact) is formed of a material that can be elastically deformed. It may be formed and is not limited to the second embodiment described above.
