Description

本発明は、空間を内部に形成している固定部材と、固定部材に回動可能に取り付けられた可動部材とを備え、可動部材の内部に電気接続された束線が固定部材の空間を通過しているチルト機構に関する。   The present invention includes a fixed member that forms a space therein, and a movable member that is rotatably attached to the fixed member, and a bundle wire that is electrically connected to the inside of the movable member passes through the space of the fixed member. It is related with the tilt mechanism.

ノート型パソコンやプリンタなどの機器では、操作用のパネル部材（例えば、液晶表示面を有する部材）が広く用いられてきている。近年、機器の多様化に伴い、操作性が良好であることは益々望まれてきている。   In devices such as notebook computers and printers, operation panel members (for example, members having a liquid crystal display surface) have been widely used. In recent years, with the diversification of equipment, it has been increasingly desired that the operability is good.

ところで、このようなパネル部材では、パネル面が常に一定方向を向いていると、パネル面に対する操作者の目線位置が異なったときに操作しづらい。操作者が立位でなく座位で操作する必要がある場合、この不具合が特に顕著となる。   By the way, in such a panel member, if the panel surface always faces a certain direction, it is difficult to operate when the line of sight of the operator with respect to the panel surface is different. This problem is particularly noticeable when the operator needs to operate in a sitting position instead of standing.

このため、操作者側に対するパネル面の角度を可変にした機構が多用されている。例えば、パネル部材と、パネル部材の側縁部（下縁部など）を回動可能に保持する固定部材とを有するチルト機構が広く用いられている。このチルト機構では、パネル部材が側縁部回りに回動可能な可動部材となっているので、操作者の目線位置に応じてパネル面の向きを変更することができる。   For this reason, a mechanism in which the angle of the panel surface with respect to the operator side is made variable is often used. For example, a tilt mechanism having a panel member and a fixing member that rotatably holds a side edge (such as a lower edge) of the panel member is widely used. In this tilt mechanism, since the panel member is a movable member that can rotate around the side edge, the orientation of the panel surface can be changed according to the position of the operator's eyes.

このようなチルト機構では、通常、可動部材内に束線が電気接続されている。そして、束線は、可動部材を固定部材に回動可能に保持する回動機構を経由して固定部材内に案内されていることが多い（例えば、特許文献１参照）。   In such a tilt mechanism, the bundle wire is normally electrically connected in the movable member. The bundled wire is often guided into the fixed member via a rotation mechanism that rotatably holds the movable member on the fixed member (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

特開平10-49256号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-49256

ところで、チルト機構正面側では、可動部材の収納位置で固定部材と可動部材とが面一になっていることが、チルト機構の外観、およびチルト機構の占有領域（設置スペース）の増大防止の観点で好ましい。   By the way, on the front side of the tilt mechanism, the fixed member and the movable member are flush with each other at the storage position of the movable member. This is in view of the appearance of the tilt mechanism and the prevention of an increase in the occupied area (installation space) of the tilt mechanism. Is preferable.

このため、例えば図５に示すように、回動機構６２を可動部材６４の基端部６４ｅの内部に配置したチルト機構６０とする対策が考えられる。しかし、この対策では、可動部材６４を収納位置へ動かしたときに、内部基板７７に電気接続されて回動機構６２内を経由している束線６８のいわゆる線噛みが固定部材６３と可動部材６４との間で生じ易いという問題が生じる。   For this reason, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, a countermeasure can be considered in which the rotation mechanism 62 is a tilt mechanism 60 disposed inside the base end portion 64 e of the movable member 64. However, in this measure, when the movable member 64 is moved to the storage position, the so-called line biting of the bundle 68 that is electrically connected to the internal substrate 77 and passes through the rotation mechanism 62 is caused by the fixed member 63 and the movable member. 64 occurs easily.

なお、例えば図６に示すように、可動部材７４の収納位置では固定部材７３と可動部材７４とをチルト機構正面側（パネル表示面側）Ｆで面一にし、可動部材７４の展開位置（展開時の位置）では可動部材７４をチルト機構正面側Ｆに移動させるチルト機構７０とする対策も考えられる。しかし、この対策では、可動部材７４の展開位置で可動部材７４がチルト機構正面側Ｆに突出してしまい、しかも展開位置で固定部材７３と可動部材７４との間に束線６８通過用の開口が隙間Ｍとして露出するので、この隙間Ｍを覆うために目隠し材７６を配置する必要がある。   For example, as shown in FIG. 6, in the storage position of the movable member 74, the fixed member 73 and the movable member 74 are flush with each other on the front side (panel display surface side) F of the tilt mechanism. At the time position), it is possible to consider a countermeasure for the tilt mechanism 70 that moves the movable member 74 to the front side F of the tilt mechanism. However, with this measure, the movable member 74 protrudes toward the front side F of the tilt mechanism at the deployed position of the movable member 74, and an opening for passing the bundle 68 is formed between the fixed member 73 and the movable member 74 at the deployed position. Since the gap M is exposed, it is necessary to arrange the blindfold 76 to cover the gap M.

本発明は上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、可動部材の展開位置および収納位置の何れであってもチルト機構正面側で可動部材と固定部材とが面一であることが可能で、かつ、束線の線噛みの発生を防止することができるチルト機構を提供することを課題とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is possible for the movable member and the fixed member to be flush with each other on the front side of the tilt mechanism regardless of whether the movable member is deployed or stored. Another object of the present invention is to provide a tilt mechanism that can prevent the occurrence of biting of bundled wires.

A tilt mechanism in which a bundle wire electrically connected to the movable member enters the space from the movable member via an opening of the fixed member, the movable member A guide member that rotates coaxially with the member and guides the bundle wire through the space, and the guide member is formed with a bundle wire passage insertion hole that extends into the space. To have a part.

本発明に係るチルト機構の第２の特徴は、前記束線案内部は、前記固定部材の前記開口の縁部に当接することで前記可動部材のストッパとして機能することにある。   A second feature of the tilt mechanism according to the present invention is that the bundle guide portion functions as a stopper of the movable member by abutting against an edge of the opening of the fixed member.

本発明に係るチルト機構の第３の特徴は、前記可動部材が収納位置から展開位置に向けて回動移動する際、および、前記可動部材が展開位置から収納位置に向けて回動移動する際の少なくとも一方で、前記可動部材が前記束線案内部に当接して押圧することにより前記ガイド部材に回動力を付与する構成にされていることにある。   A third feature of the tilt mechanism according to the present invention is that when the movable member rotates from the storage position toward the deployed position, and when the movable member rotates from the deployment position toward the storage position. At least one of the above, the movable member is configured to apply a rotational force to the guide member by abutting and pressing the bundled wire guide portion.

本発明に係るチルト機構の第４の特徴は、前記ガイド部材は、前記可動部材内に延び出す可動部材側束線案内部を備え、前記可動部材が展開位置から収納位置に向けて回動移動する際に、前記可動部材が前記可動部材側束線案内部に当接して押圧することで前記ガイド部材に回動力を付与する構成にされていることにある。   A fourth feature of the tilt mechanism according to the present invention is that the guide member includes a movable member-side bundle guide portion extending into the movable member, and the movable member rotates and moves from the deployed position toward the storage position. In doing so, the movable member is configured to apply rotational force to the guide member by abutting and pressing the movable member-side bundle guide portion.

本発明に係るチルト機構の第１の特徴によれば、可動部材と同軸回りに回動するガイド部材をチルト機構が備えていて、ガイド部材は、束線通過用の挿通孔が形成され固定部材の空間内に延び出す束線案内部を有するので、可動部材の展開位置および収納位置の何れであってもチルト機構正面側で可動部材と固定部材とが面一であることが可能で、かつ、束線の線噛みの発生を防止することができる。   According to the first feature of the tilt mechanism according to the present invention, the tilt mechanism includes a guide member that rotates about the same axis as the movable member, and the guide member is formed with an insertion hole for passing a bundle wire and is fixed.

［第１実施形態］
まず、第１実施形態について説明する。図１（ａ）〜（ｃ）は、それぞれ、本実施形態のチルト機構で、起立状態（展開状態）、起立状態から収納状態への移動中の状態、および、収納状態を示す模式的な側面図である。図２は、本実施形態のチルト機構の斜視図である。 [First Embodiment]
First, the first embodiment will be described. FIGS. 1A to 1C are schematic side views showing the standing state (deployed state), the moving state from the standing state to the stowed state, and the stowed state, respectively, of the tilt mechanism of the present embodiment. FIG. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the tilt mechanism of the present embodiment.

図１に示すように、本実施形態のチルト機構１０はプリンタの操作パネルを表示するものである。なお、本実施形態のチルト機構は操作パネル以外にも用いることができ、また、プリンタ以外にも適用可能である。従って、後述の可動部材が操作パネルを有していないものであっても、本発明の適用範囲となる。   As shown in FIG. 1, the tilt mechanism 10 of the present embodiment displays an operation panel of the printer. Note that the tilt mechanism of the present embodiment can be used other than the operation panel, and can be applied to other than a printer. Therefore, even if a movable member described later does not have an operation panel, it is within the scope of the present invention.

チルト機構１０は、空間ＳＬを内部に形成している中空の固定部材１２と、固定部材１２の上側に回動可能に取り付けられた可動部材１４とを備える。   The tilt mechanism 10 includes a hollow fixed member 12 that forms a space SL therein, and a movable member 14 that is rotatably attached to the upper side of the fixed member 12.

本実施形態では、固定部材１２は略直方体状であり、固定部材１２のチルト機構正面側は平面状である。チルト機構１０の正面側（すなわちプリンタの正面側）の近くであって固定部材１２のハウジング上面側には、後述の束線案内部２０ｆが挿入される開口１２ｍが形成されている。   In this embodiment, the fixing member 12 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the front side of the tilt mechanism of the fixing member 12 has a flat shape. Near the front side of the tilt mechanism 10 (that is, the front side of the printer) and on the upper surface side of the housing of the fixing member 12, an opening 12m into which a later-described bundle guide part 20f is inserted is formed.

可動部材１４は、起立状態（図１（ａ）参照）と収納状態（図１（ｃ）参照）とに回動位置が切替可能となっている。可動部材１４の起立状態における正面側は操作パネルの表示面１４ｄとなっている。可動部材１４の内部には内部基板１６が設けられており、内部基板１６には束線１８（例えば、図２に示すフレキシブルケーブル１８ｆや撚り線状ケーブル１８ｔ）が電気接続されている。   The movable member 14 is capable of switching the rotation position between a standing state (see FIG. 1A) and a storage state (see FIG. 1C). The front side of the movable member 14 in the standing state is a display surface 14d of the operation panel. An internal substrate 16 is provided inside the movable member 14, and a bundle 18 (for example, a flexible cable 18 f and a stranded wire cable 18 t shown in FIG. 2) is electrically connected to the internal substrate 16.

また、チルト機構１０は、可動部材１４と同軸回りに回動し、束線１８を通過させて空間ＳＬに案内するガイド部材２０を備える。そして、可動部材１４内部にガイド部材本体２０ｍが配置されている。本実施形態では、可動部材１４およびガイド部材２０の回動中心軸Ｃは、固定部材１２の開口１２ｍよりも上方側に位置している。回動中心軸Ｃの位置について具体的に説明すると、水平方向位置に関しては、チルト機構正面（前面）から可動部材１４の厚みの１／２の距離だけチルト機構後方側へ移動した位置であり、上下方向位置に関しては、可動部材１４の起立状態における下端位置から可動部材１４の厚みの１／２以上の距離で上方へ移動した位置である。   In addition, the tilt mechanism 10 includes a guide member 20 that rotates about the same axis as the movable member 14 and guides the bundle SL 18 through the bundle SL. A guide member main body 20m is disposed inside the movable member 14. In the present embodiment, the rotation center axis C of the movable member 14 and the guide member 20 is located above the opening 12 m of the fixed member 12. The position of the rotation center axis C will be specifically described. The horizontal position is a position moved from the front (front surface) of the tilt mechanism to the rear side of the tilt mechanism by a distance ½ of the thickness of the movable member 14. With respect to the vertical position, it is a position moved upward from the lower end position of the movable member 14 in the standing state by a distance of 1/2 or more of the thickness of the movable member 14.

ガイド部材２０は、ガイド部材本体２０ｍから延び出し、固定部材１２の開口１２ｍを通過して空間ＳＬに入っている固定部材側の束線案内部２０ｆを有する。束線案内部２０ｆは束線通過用の挿通孔部２０ｐを有しており、束線１８は挿通孔部２０ｐを挿通して固定部材１２の空間ＳＬに案内され、更に固定部材１２の外部へ延び出している。   The guide member 20 has a bundle member guide 20f on the fixed member side that extends from the guide member main body 20m, passes through the opening 12m of the fixed member 12, and enters the space SL. The bundle guide 20f has an insertion hole 20p for passing the bundle, and the bundle 18 is guided to the space SL of the fixing member 12 through the insertion hole 20p and further to the outside of the fixing member 12. It extends.

そして、可動部材１４を収納位置から起立位置（展開位置）へ回動移動させる際に束線案内部２０ｆが開口１２ｍの奥側開口縁部１２ｅに当接することで、束線案内部２０ｆは、可動部材１４の回転移動を停止させるストッパとしての機能を有するとともに、奥側開口縁部１２ｅと可動部材１４のハウジング奥部１４ｂの端部１４ｂｅとの隙間Ｍを目隠しする機能を有する構成になっている。   When the movable member 14 is pivotally moved from the storage position to the standing position (deployment position), the bundle guide portion 20f comes into contact with the rear opening edge portion 12e of the opening 12m, so that the bundle guide portion 20f is It has a function as a stopper for stopping the rotational movement of the movable member 14 and also has a function of blinding the gap M between the rear opening edge 12e and the end 14be of the housing inner portion 14b of the movable member 14. Yes.

また、可動部材１４を収納位置から起立位置へ回動移動させる際にハウジング正面部１４ｆの端部１４ｆｅが束線案内部２０ｆに当接して押圧することによりガイド部材２０に起立方向への回動力を与えるようになっており、しかも、可動部材１４を起立位置から収納位置へ移動させる際にハウジング奥部１４ｂの端部１４ｂｅが束線案内部２０ｆに当接して押圧することによりガイド部材２０に収納方向への回動力を与えるようになっている。   Further, when the movable member 14 is pivotally moved from the storage position to the standing position, the end portion 14fe of the housing front surface portion 14f abuts against the bundle guide portion 20f and presses the guide member 20 in the standing direction. Moreover, when the movable member 14 is moved from the standing position to the storage position, the end portion 14be of the housing back portion 14b abuts against and presses the bundled wire guide portion 20f to the guide member 20. It is designed to provide turning power in the storage direction.

更に、ガイド部材２０は、ガイド部材本体２０ｍから可動部材１４の空間ＳＵ内に延び出す可動部材側の束線案内部２０ｒを有する。束線案内部２０ｒは束線通過用の挿通孔部２０ｑを有しており、束線１８が挿通孔部２０ｑを挿通している。   Furthermore, the guide member 20 includes a movable member-side bundle guide 20r that extends from the guide member main body 20m into the space SU of the movable member 14. The bundle wire guide portion 20r has an insertion hole portion 20q for passing the bundle wire, and the bundle wire 18 is inserted through the insertion hole portion 20q.

そして、可動部材１４を収納位置から起立位置へ回動移動させる際に、可動部材１４のハウジングが固定部材１２のハウジングの上面側に当接することで、ガイド部材２０の回転移動が停止するようになっている。   Then, when the movable member 14 is pivotally moved from the storage position to the standing position, the rotational movement of the guide member 20 is stopped by the housing of the movable member 14 coming into contact with the upper surface side of the housing of the fixed member 12. It has become.

そして、可動部材１４が展開して起立した位置（図１（ａ）参照）、および、可動部材１４が倒されて収納された位置（図１（ｃ）参照）の何れであっても、プリンタ正面側から見て、すなわちチルト機構正面側から見て固定部材１２と可動部材１４とが面一になるように、可動部材１４の寸法を考慮して回動中心軸Ｃの位置が設定されている。   The printer can be used at any of the position where the movable member 14 is unfolded and standing (see FIG. 1A) and the position where the movable member 14 is retracted and stored (see FIG. 1C). The position of the rotation center axis C is set in consideration of the dimensions of the movable member 14 so that the fixed member 12 and the movable member 14 are flush with each other when viewed from the front side, that is, when viewed from the front side of the tilt mechanism. Yes.

（作用、効果）
以下、本実施形態の作用、効果を説明する。 (Function, effect)
Hereinafter, the operation and effect of the present embodiment will be described.

可動部材１４を収納位置（図１（ｃ）参照）から起立位置（図１（ａ）参照））に移動させるには、可動部材１４を起立方向（展開方向）へ向けて回動中心軸Ｃまわりに回転させる。この結果、可動部材１４のハウジング正面部１４ｆの端部１４ｆｅがガイド部材２０の束線案内部２０ｆに当接し、その後は可動部材１４とガイド部材２０とが同時に回転する。従って、起立位置では、束線１８が束線案内部２０ｆの先端部２０ｔで急峻な折れ曲がり形状となることが回避されており、いわゆる線噛み（断線）が束線１８に生じることを防止できる。また、可動部材１４のこの回動移動では、可動部材１４が束線案内部２０ｆに当接して押圧することによりガイド部材２０に起立方向への回動力を付与するので、チルト機構１０の構成を簡単にすることができる。   In order to move the movable member 14 from the stowed position (see FIG. 1C) to the standing position (see FIG. 1A)), the movable member 14 is turned toward the standing direction (deployment direction). Rotate around. As a result, the end portion 14fe of the housing front portion 14f of the movable member 14 abuts on the bundle guide portion 20f of the guide member 20, and thereafter the movable member 14 and the guide member 20 rotate simultaneously. Therefore, at the standing position, the bundled wire 18 is prevented from having a sharp bent shape at the tip end portion 20t of the bundled guide portion 20f, and so-called wire biting (disconnection) can be prevented from occurring in the bundled wire 18. Further, in this rotational movement of the movable member 14, the movable member 14 abuts on and presses against the bundle guide portion 20f, thereby giving the guide member 20 turning force in the standing direction. Can be simple.

可動部材１４が起立位置に到達したときにはガイド部材２０の束線案内部２０ｆが奥側開口縁部１２ｅに当接して移動が規制され、可動部材１４の回転が停止する。そして、可動部材１４が起立位置に位置していると、奥側開口縁部１２ｅと可動部材１４との間に形成される隙間Ｍを束線案内部２０ｆによって目隠しすることができる。従って、束線案内部２０ｆを有する簡易な形状のガイド部材２０を配置したことによって、別途に可動部材用のストッパを設ける必要がなく、しかも、別途に目隠し部材を配置しなくても隙間Ｍから不用意な落下物（クリップなど）が入ることが防止される。   When the movable member 14 reaches the upright position, the bundle guide portion 20f of the guide member 20 abuts on the rear opening edge 12e and the movement is restricted, and the rotation of the movable member 14 is stopped. When the movable member 14 is positioned at the standing position, the gap M formed between the rear opening edge 12e and the movable member 14 can be blinded by the bundle guide 20f. Therefore, by arranging the simple-shaped guide member 20 having the bundle guide part 20f, there is no need to separately provide a stopper for the movable member, and further, from the gap M without separately providing a blindfold member. Inadvertent falling objects (clips, etc.) are prevented from entering.

可動部材１４を起立位置から収納位置に移動させるには、可動部材１４を収納方向へ向けて回動中心軸Ｃまわりに回転させる。この結果、可動部材１４のハウジング奥部１４ｂの端部１４ｂｅがガイド部材２０の束線案内部２０ｆに当接し、その後は可動部材１４とガイド部材２０とが同時に回転する。従って、起立位置でも、束線１８が束線案内部２０ｆの先端部２０ｔで急峻な折れ曲がり形状となることが回避されており、いわゆる線噛みが束線１８に生じることを防止できる。また、可動部材２０のこの移動では可動部材２０が束線案内部２０ｆに当接することでガイド部材２０に収納方向への回動力が付与されるので、チルト機構１０の構成を簡単にすることができる。   In order to move the movable member 14 from the standing position to the storage position, the movable member 14 is rotated about the rotation center axis C in the storage direction. As a result, the end portion 14be of the housing back portion 14b of the movable member 14 comes into contact with the bundle guide portion 20f of the guide member 20, and thereafter the movable member 14 and the guide member 20 rotate simultaneously. Therefore, even in the standing position, it is avoided that the bundled wire 18 has a sharp bent shape at the tip end portion 20t of the bundled guide portion 20f, and so-called wire biting can be prevented from occurring in the bundled wire 18. Further, in this movement of the movable member 20, since the movable member 20 abuts against the bundle guide portion 20f, turning force in the storage direction is applied to the guide member 20, so that the configuration of the tilt mechanism 10 can be simplified. it can.

また、ガイド部材２０が回動中心軸Ｃ回りに回動するので、束線１８が引っ張られて束線案内部２０ｆの先端部で曲げられても、ガイド部材２０が回動しない場合に比べ、束線１８に生じる応力を遥かに小さくすることが可能になる。   In addition, since the guide member 20 rotates about the rotation center axis C, the guide member 20 does not rotate even when the bundle wire 18 is pulled and bent at the tip of the bundle guide portion 20f. The stress generated in the bundle 18 can be made much smaller.

可動部材１４が収納位置に到達すると、可動部材１４のハウジングが固定部材１２のハウジング上面に当接して回転が停止し、可動部材１４およびガイド部材２０の回転が停止する。   When the movable member 14 reaches the storage position, the housing of the movable member 14 comes into contact with the upper surface of the fixed member 12 to stop the rotation, and the rotation of the movable member 14 and the guide member 20 is stopped.

従って、可動部材１４の起立位置および収納位置の何れであってもチルト機構正面側Ｆで可動部材１４と固定部材１２とが面一になっていて、かつ、束線１８の線噛みの発生が防止されたチルト機構１０が実現される。なお、このように面一になっていると、外観上好ましいことに加え、チルト機構１０の占有領域を増大させなくて済むという効果が得られる。   Therefore, the movable member 14 and the fixed member 12 are flush with each other on the front side F of the tilt mechanism at any of the standing position and the retracted position of the movable member 14, and the bundled wire 18 is bitten. The prevented tilt mechanism 10 is realized. In addition, in addition to being preferable in terms of appearance, it is possible to obtain an effect that it is not necessary to increase the occupied area of the tilt mechanism 10 when they are flush with each other.

また、側面視で回動中心軸Ｃが可動部材１４の外面上ではなく内側に位置しているので、固定部材１２および可動部材１４の形状を簡単にできるとともに部材設計の自由度が大きくなる。   Further, since the rotation center axis C is positioned not on the outer surface of the movable member 14 but in the side view, the shapes of the fixed member 12 and the movable member 14 can be simplified and the degree of freedom in member design is increased.

なお、起立位置から収納位置へ可動部材１４を回動移動させる際には、ハウジング正面部１４ｆの内壁ｆｗが束線案内部２０ｒの先端部に当接して押圧していてもよい（図１（ｂ）、（ｃ）参照）。これにより、ガイド部材２０をよりスムーズに回動させることができるとともに、ハウジング奥部１４ｂの端部１４ｂｅが束線案内部２０ｆを回動方向へ押圧する力を低減させることができる。   When the movable member 14 is pivotally moved from the standing position to the storage position, the inner wall fw of the housing front portion 14f may be pressed against the front end portion of the bundle guide portion 20r (FIG. 1 ( b) and (c)). Thereby, while being able to rotate the guide member 20 more smoothly, the force in which the edge part 14be of the housing back part 14b presses the bundle wire guide part 20f to a rotation direction can be reduced.

また、図１で二点鎖線で示すように、ガイド部材２０の束線案内部２０ｆの先端部であって束線１８が引っ張られる側に、束線１８に対して凸となる湾曲凸部３０が設けられていてもよい。これにより、束線１８の線噛みが更に確実に防止される。   Further, as indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 1, a curved convex portion 30 that is convex with respect to the bundle wire 18 on the side where the bundle wire 18 is pulled at the tip end portion of the bundle wire guide portion 20 f of the guide member 20. May be provided. Thereby, the biting of the bundled wire 18 is further reliably prevented.

また、本実施形態では、可動部材１４およびガイド部材２０の回動中心軸Ｃが固定部材１２の開口１２ｍよりも上方側に位置している例で説明したが、開口１２ｍと同じ高さ位置、あるいは、開口１２ｍよりも下方側に位置していてもよい。例えば、図３（ａ）〜（ｃ）に示すように、可動部材４４に比べて薄型の可動部材３４と、これに対応したガイド部材３１とを用いたチルト機構３３とすることも可能である。この場合、可動部材３４のハウジング奥部３５ｂに、ガイド部材本体３１ｍに沿った円弧状の延出し部３５ｃを設け、可動部材３４を起立位置から収納位置へ回動移動させる際に、延出し部３５ｃの端部３５ｃｅが、ガイド部材本体３１ｍから固定部材３２の空間ＳＬに延び出す束線案内部３１ｆに当接して押圧する構成にすることで、ガイド部材３１も併せて回動移動する構成にしてもよい。   In the present embodiment, the rotation center axis C of the movable member 14 and the guide member 20 has been described as being located above the opening 12m of the fixed member 12, but the same height position as the opening 12m, Or you may be located below the opening 12m. For example, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3C, a tilt mechanism 33 using a movable member 34 that is thinner than the movable member 44 and a guide member 31 corresponding to the movable member 34 may be used. . In this case, an arc-shaped extending portion 35c along the guide member main body 31m is provided in the housing inner portion 35b of the movable member 34, and the extending portion is moved when the movable member 34 is rotated from the standing position to the storage position. By configuring the end portion 35ce of 35c to contact and press the bundle guide portion 31f extending from the guide member main body 31m to the space SL of the fixing member 32, the guide member 31 is also rotated. May be.

The bundle guide 50f is formed with an abutting force distribution portion 50fs for contacting and contacting the inner opening edge 42e of the opening 42m of the fixing member 42.

ガイド部材５０は、可動部材４４と同軸回りに回動するようになっており、可動部材４４内に配置された内部基板４６に電気接続された束線４８をガイド部材５０に通過させることで固定部材４２の空間ＳＬに案内するようになっている。本実施形態ででは、可動部材４４およびガイド部材５０の回動中心軸Ｃの高さ位置は固定部材４２の開口４２ｍと同じ高さ位置にされている。   The guide member 50 rotates about the same axis as the movable member 44, and is fixed by passing the bundle wire 48 electrically connected to the internal substrate 46 disposed in the movable member 44 through the guide member 50. Guide to the space SL of the member 42. In the present embodiment, the height position of the rotation center axis C of the movable member 44 and the guide member 50 is set to the same height position as the opening 42 m of the fixed member 42.

可動部材４４を起立位置（展開位置）から収納位置に回転移動させる際には、可動部材４４のハウジング正面部４４ｆの内壁４４ｆｗが束線案内部５０ｒに当接してガイド部材５０に回動力が加えられる構成になっている。   When the movable member 44 is rotated from the standing position (deployed position) to the storage position, the inner wall 44 fw of the housing front portion 44 f of the movable member 44 comes into contact with the bundle guide portion 50 r and rotational force is applied to the guide member 50. It is configured to be.

また、可動部材４４を収納位置から起立位置へ回動移動させる際には、可動部材４４のハウジング正面部４４ｆの端部４４ｆｅが束線案内部５０ｆに当接して押圧することにより、ガイド部材５０に起立方向への回動力を与えるようになっており、しかも、可動部材４４を起立位置から収納位置へ移動させる際にハウジング正面部４４ｆの内壁４４ｆｗが可動部材側の束線案内部５０ｒの先端部に当接してガイド部材５０に収納方向への回動力を与えるようになっている。また、束線案内部５０ｆが開口４２ｍの奥側開口縁部４２ｅに当接することで、束線案内部５０ｆは、可動部材４４の回転移動を停止させるストッパとしての機能を有する。   Further, when the movable member 44 is pivotally moved from the storage position to the standing position, the end portion 44fe of the housing front portion 44f of the movable member 44 comes into contact with and presses the bundled wire guide portion 50f, thereby guiding the guide member 50. Further, when the movable member 44 is moved from the standing position to the stowed position, the inner wall 44fw of the housing front portion 44f is the tip of the bundle guide portion 50r on the movable member side. The guide member 50 is provided with a turning force in the storage direction by contacting the portion. Further, the bundle guide part 50f has a function as a stopper that stops the rotational movement of the movable member 44 by the contact of the bundle guide part 50f with the rear opening edge part 42e of the opening 42m.

そして、可動部材４４の起立位置（図４（ａ）参照）、および、可動部材４４の収納位置（図４（ｃ）参照）の何れであっても、プリンタ正面側から見て、すなわちチルト機構正面側Ｆから見て固定部材４２と可動部材４４とが面一になるように、可動部材４４の寸法を考慮して回動中心軸Ｃの位置が設定されている。   Then, regardless of whether the movable member 44 is raised (see FIG. 4A) or the movable member 44 is stored (see FIG. 4C), it is seen from the front side of the printer, that is, a tilt mechanism. The position of the rotation center axis C is set in consideration of the dimensions of the movable member 44 so that the fixed member 42 and the movable member 44 are flush with each other when viewed from the front side F.

本実施形態により、第１実施形態と同様、可動部材４４の起立位置および収納位置の何れであってもチルト機構正面側Ｆで可動部材４４と固定部材４２とが面一になっていて、かつ、束線４８の線噛の発生を防止したチルト機構４０が実現される。   According to the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the movable member 44 and the fixed member 42 are flush with each other on the front side F of the tilt mechanism at any of the standing position and the storage position of the movable member 44, and Thus, the tilt mechanism 40 that prevents the wire bundle 48 from being bitten is realized.

また、可動部材４４が起立位置から収納位置に向けて回動移動する際に、可動部材４４が可動部材側の束線案内部５０ｒに当接することでガイド部材５０に回動力が付与されるので、チルト機構４０の構成を簡単にすることができる。   Further, when the movable member 44 pivots from the standing position toward the storage position, the movable member 44 comes into contact with the bundle guide part 50r on the movable member side, so that rotational force is applied to the guide member 50. The configuration of the tilt mechanism 40 can be simplified.

なお、可動部材４４を収納位置から起立位置にまで回転移動させる際に、可動部材４４のハウジング奥部４４ｂの端部４４ｂｅが束線案内部５０ｒに当接して押圧する構成にしてもよい（図４（ｂ）、（ｃ）参照）。これにより、ガイド部材５０をよりスムーズに回動させることができるとともに、ハウジング正面部４４ｆの内壁４４ｆｗが束線案内部５０ｒを回動方向へ押圧する力を低減させることができる。   Note that when the movable member 44 is rotationally moved from the storage position to the standing position, the end portion 44be of the housing inner portion 44b of the movable member 44 may be in contact with and pressed against the bundle guide 50r (FIG. 4 (b) and (c)). Accordingly, the guide member 50 can be rotated more smoothly, and the force with which the inner wall 44 fw of the housing front portion 44 f presses the bundle guide portion 50 r in the rotation direction can be reduced.
