各U字状連結部材(6)とヒンジフレーム(50)の各支持アーム(52)との対向部には、U字状連結部材(6)と支持アーム(52)の互いの離脱を阻止する第1抜け止め構造が形成されると共に、各U字状連結部材(6)と前記ホルダ(4)の端部との間には、U字状連結部材(6)とホルダ(4)の互いの離脱を阻止する第2抜け止め構造が形成されている。
In the portable electronic device according to the present invention, a pair of casings (1) and (2) are connected to each other via a metal hinge frame (50) so as to be opened and closed, and the pair of casings (1) and (2). One of the housings is provided with a metal holder (4) for holding an electronic component, and a pair of support arms (52) (52) is provided at one end of the hinge frame (50). The pair of support arms (52) (52) and both ends of the holder (4) are connected to each other, and the other end of the hinge frame (50) is connected to the other housing. Yes.
Between the pair of
The U-shaped connecting member (6) and the supporting arm (52) are prevented from being separated from each other at the opposing portion of each U-shaped connecting member (6) and each supporting arm (52) of the hinge frame (50). A first retaining structure is formed, and the U-shaped connecting member (6) and the holder (4) are connected to each other between each U-shaped connecting member (6) and the end of the holder (4). A second retaining structure is formed to prevent the detachment.
上記本発明の携帯型電子機器において、U字状連結部材(6)の一対のホルダ挟持面(67)(67)がホルダ(4)の両端部にそれぞれ摺接して、U字状連結部材(6)がホルダ(4)を狭持すると共に、U字状連結部材(6)の一対のアーム摺接面(66)(66)がヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)に形成された一対の連結部材挟持面(55)(55)にそれぞれ摺接して、U字状連結部材(6)がヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)に狭持される。これにより、U字状連結部材(6)は、ホルダ(4)の端部とヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)との間に挟まれて、前記支持アーム(52)の長手方向に垂直な方向に対して弾性変形不能に拘束されている。
前記一対の筐体の開閉動作に伴って、U字状連結部材(6)には、支持アーム(52)の長手方向に垂直な方向の力が作用するが、U字状連結部材(6)が前記支持アーム(52)の長手方向に垂直な方向に対して弾性変形することはなく、これにより、ホルダ(4)とヒンジフレーム(50)とが、U字状連結部材(6)を介して必要な強度を維持して連結されることになる。
従って、ホルダ(4)とヒンジフレーム(50)とをビス止めする必要はない。又、金属性のホルダ(4)と金属製のヒンジフレーム(50)とが、合成樹脂製のU字状連結部材(6)を間に挟んで互いに連結されており、直接に接触することはないので、金属粉が発生することはない。
In the portable electronic device of the present invention, the pair of holder clamping surfaces (67) and (67) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) are in sliding contact with both end portions of the holder (4), respectively. 6) sandwiches the holder (4), and a pair of arm sliding contact surfaces (66, 66) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) are formed on the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50). The U-shaped connecting member (6) is nipped by the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50) in sliding contact with the pair of connecting member clamping surfaces (55) and (55). As a result, the U-shaped connecting member (6) is sandwiched between the end of the holder (4) and the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50) in the longitudinal direction of the support arm (52). It is constrained so that it cannot be elastically deformed in the vertical direction.
Along with the opening / closing operation of the pair of casings, a force perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the support arm (52) acts on the U-shaped connecting member (6), but the U-shaped connecting member (6) Is not elastically deformed in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the support arm (52), whereby the holder (4) and the hinge frame (50) are interposed via the U-shaped connecting member (6). Therefore, it is connected while maintaining the required strength.
Therefore, it is not necessary to screw the holder (4) and the hinge frame (50). In addition, the metallic holder (4) and the metallic hinge frame (50) are connected to each other with a synthetic resin U-shaped connecting member (6) in between, and are in direct contact with each other. Because there is no metal powder is generated.
具体的構成において、前記U字状連結部材(6)の一方の先端部には、他方の先端部に向けてフック部(64)が突設され、該フック部(64)に対向する前記ホルダ(4)の対向面には、該フック部(64)と係合する凹部(47)が凹設されると共に、該凹部(47)には、前記ヒンジフレーム(50)の各支持アーム(52)の長手方向に交叉する方向に拡がって前記フック部(64)を受け止める第1抜け止め面(48)が形成される。
又、前記フック部(64)に対向する前記ヒンジフレーム(50)の各支持アーム(52)の対向面には、該フック部(64)と係合する鉤部(56)が突設されると共に、該鉤部(56)には、前記ホルダ(4)の凹部(47)の第1抜け止め面(48)との間に、前記U字状連結部材(6)のフック部(64)を挟み込む第2抜け止め面(57)が形成される。
そして、前記第1抜け止め構造は、前記U字状連結部材(6)のフック部(64)と、ヒンジフレーム(50)の各支持アーム(52)の鉤部(56)とから構成され、前記第2抜け止め構造は、前記U字状連結部材(6)のフック部(64)と、前記ホルダ(4)の凹部(47)とから構成される。
In a specific configuration, a hook portion (64) projects from one tip portion of the U-shaped connecting member (6) toward the other tip portion, and the holder faces the hook portion (64). A concave portion (47) that engages with the hook portion (64) is provided in the opposing surface of (4), and each of the support arms (52) of the hinge frame (50) is provided in the concave portion (47). ) Extending in the direction intersecting with the longitudinal direction of the first retaining surface (48) for receiving the hook portion (64).
Further, on the opposing surface of each support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50) facing the hook portion (64), a flange portion (56) that engages with the hook portion (64) is projected. In addition, the hook part (64) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) is provided between the flange part (56) and the first retaining surface (48) of the concave part (47) of the holder (4). A second retaining surface (57) is formed to sandwich the.

The second retaining structure includes a hook part (64) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) and a concave part (47) of the holder (4).
該具体的構成によれば、前記一対の開閉動作に伴って、U字状連結部材(6)にホルダ(4)の離脱方向の力が作用した場合には、U字状連結部材(6)のフック部(64)は、ホルダ(4)の凹部(47)に形成された第1抜け止め面(48)と支持アーム(52)の鉤部(56)に形成された第2抜け止め面(57)とによって狭圧されることになる。これにより、U字状連結部材(6)は、ホルダ(4)の離脱方向の力に対して大きな抗力を発揮する。従って、例えば、前記一対の筐体を開いた状態で、誤って床面に落下させた場合に、両筐体に開き方向の大きな衝撃力が加わって、両筐体に許容限度以上の拡開力が作用したとしても、ホルダ(4)及びU字状連結部材(6)がヒンジフレーム(50)から離脱することはない。 According to this specific configuration, when a force in the direction of detachment of the holder (4) acts on the U-shaped connecting member (6) along with the pair of opening / closing operations, the U-shaped connecting member (6) The hook part (64) of the holder has a first retaining surface (48) formed in the recess (47) of the holder (4) and a second retaining surface formed on the flange (56) of the support arm (52). (57). Thereby, U-shaped connection member (6) exhibits a big resistance with respect to the force of the separation direction of holder (4). Therefore, for example, when the pair of casings are opened and accidentally dropped on the floor, a large impact force in the opening direction is applied to both casings, and the two casings expand beyond the allowable limit. Even if a force acts, the holder (4) and the U-shaped connecting member (6) do not separate from the hinge frame (50).
又、具体的構成において、前記ホルダ(4)の両端部には、一対の連結部(41)(41)が外側に向けて突設され、該一対の連結部(41)(41)と前記ヒンジフレーム(50)の一対の支持アーム(52)(52)とが、前記一対のU字状連結部材(6)(6)を介して互いに連結される。
更に、前記U字状連結部材(6)の外周面(61)の両側縁には、前記支持アーム(52)の両側面とそれぞれ対向するフランジ部(63)が突設されると共に、前記ホルダ(4)の各連結部(41)には、前記U字状連結部材(6)のフランジ部(63)の両外側面とそれぞれ対向する一対の壁部が突設されている。
Further, in a specific configuration, a pair of connecting portions (41) and (41) protrudes outward from both ends of the holder (4), and the pair of connecting portions (41) and (41) The pair of support arms (52) and (52) of the hinge frame (50) are coupled to each other via the pair of U-shaped coupling members (6) and (6).
Further, flange portions (63) respectively opposed to both side surfaces of the support arm (52) are projected from both side edges of the outer peripheral surface (61) of the U-shaped connecting member (6), and the holder Each connecting portion (41) in (4) has a pair of wall portions projecting from both outer surfaces of the flange portion (63) of the U-shaped connecting member (6).
該具体的構成によれば、U字状連結部材(6)のフランジ部(63)の一対の内側面が、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)の両側面にそれぞれ摺接し、該フランジ部(63)の一対の外側面が、ホルダ(4)の端部に突設された一対の壁部にそれぞれ摺接して、U字状連結部材(6)は、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)とホルダ(4)との間の、前記ヒンジフレーム(50)の回転軸方向の所定位置に拘束されて保持されることになる。これにより、例えば、落下等によって、ヒンジフレーム(50)の回転軸に沿う方向の力がホルダ(4)及びU字状連結部材(6)に作用したとしても、U字状連結部材(6)がホルダ(4)及びヒンジフレーム(50)から離脱することはない。 According to the specific configuration, the pair of inner side surfaces of the flange portion (63) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) are in sliding contact with both side surfaces of the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50). The pair of outer surfaces of the portion (63) are in sliding contact with the pair of wall portions projecting from the end of the holder (4), and the U-shaped connecting member (6) supports the hinge frame (50). The arm (52) and the holder (4) are restrained and held at a predetermined position in the rotation axis direction of the hinge frame (50). Thereby, for example, even if a force in the direction along the rotation axis of the hinge frame (50) acts on the holder (4) and the U-shaped connecting member (6) due to dropping or the like, the U-shaped connecting member (6) Does not detach from the holder (4) and the hinge frame (50).
本発明の携帯型電子機器によれば、金属製のホルダと金属製のヒンジフレームとを必要な強度を維持して連結することが出来、然も、金属紛が発生することはない。 According to the portable electronic device of the present invention, the metal holder and the metal hinge frame can be connected while maintaining the necessary strength, and no metal powder is generated.

更に、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)の一対の連結部材挟持面(55)(55)の内、ホルダ(4)の連結部(41)の裏面に対向する一方の連結部材挟持面(55)には、
U字状連結部材(6)が連結された支持アーム(52)をホルダ(4)の連結部(41)に連結する際、U字状連結部材(6)の先端に形成したフック部(64)がホルダ(4)の連結部(41)の裏面側の連結部材摺接面(42)に当接することによるU字状連結部材(6)の弾性変形を許容する逃げ部(58)が凹設されている。
11 to 15 show the connection state of the
Further, of the pair of connecting member holding surfaces (55) and (55) of the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50), one connecting member holding surface facing the back surface of the connecting portion (41) of the holder (4). (55)
When connecting the support arm (52) to which the U-shaped connecting member (6) is connected to the connecting portion (41) of the holder (4), a hook portion (64) formed at the tip of the U-shaped connecting member (6). ) Is recessed to allow the U-shaped connecting member (6) to be elastically deformed by contacting the connecting member sliding contact surface (42) on the back side of the connecting portion (41) of the holder (4). It is installed.
U字状連結部材(6)は、その内周面(62)に形成した一対のホルダ挟持面(67)(67)が、ホルダ(4)の連結部(41)に形成した一対の連結部材摺接面(42)(42)にそれぞれ摺接して、ホルダ(4)の連結部(41)を狭持すると共に、その外周面(61)に形成した一対のアーム摺接面(66)(66)が、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)に形成した一対の連結部材挟持面(55)(55)にそれぞれ摺接して、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)に狭持されている。これにより、U字状連結部材(6)は、ホルダ(4)の連結部(41)とヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)との間に挟まれて、支持アーム(50)の長手方向に交叉する方向の弾性変形不能に拘束されるので、前記第1筐体(1)及び第2筐体(2)の開閉動作に伴って、U字状連結部材(6)に支持アーム(50)の長手方向に交叉する方向の力が作用しても、U字状連結部材(6)が弾性変形することはなく、この結果、ホルダ(4)とヒンジフレーム(50)とが、U字状連結部材(6)を介して必要な強度を維持して互いに連結されることになる。
従って、ホルダ(4)とヒンジフレーム(50)とをビス止めする必要はなく、金属製のホルダ(4)と金属製のヒンジフレーム(50)とが、合成樹脂製のU字状連結部材(6)を間に挟んで互いに連結されて、直接に接触することはないので、金属粉が発生することはない。
The U-shaped connecting member (6) has a pair of connecting members formed on the connecting portion (41) of the holder (4) by a pair of holder clamping surfaces (67) and (67) formed on the inner peripheral surface (62). A pair of arm sliding surfaces (66) formed on the outer peripheral surface (61) of the holder (4) while holding the connecting portion (41) in sliding contact with the sliding surfaces (42) and (42), respectively. 66) are in sliding contact with the pair of connecting member clamping surfaces (55) and (55) formed on the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50), respectively, and are held by the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50). Has been. As a result, the U-shaped connecting member (6) is sandwiched between the connecting portion (41) of the holder (4) and the supporting arm (52) of the hinge frame (50), so that the length of the supporting arm (50) is increased. Since it is restrained so that it cannot be elastically deformed in a direction crossing the direction, a support arm (6) is attached to the U-shaped connecting member (6) in accordance with the opening / closing operation of the first casing (1) and the second casing (2). 50), the U-shaped connecting member (6) is not elastically deformed even when a force in the direction crossing the longitudinal direction is applied. As a result, the holder (4) and the hinge frame (50) They are connected to each other while maintaining the required strength via the character-like connecting member (6).
Therefore, there is no need to screw the holder (4) and the hinge frame (50), and the metal holder (4) and the metal hinge frame (50) are made of a synthetic resin U-shaped connecting member ( 6) Since they are connected to each other with no gap between them, metal powder is not generated.
又、例えば、前記第1筐体(1)及び第2筐体(2)を開いた状態で誤って床面に落下させた場合、第1及び第2筐体(1)(2)に開き方向の大きな衝撃力が加わって、第2筐体(2)が許容限度以上に開かれることによって、U字状連結部材(6)に、ホルダ(4)の離脱方向の大きな力が作用すると、U字状連結部材(6)のフック部(64)は、ホルダ(4)の凹部(47)に形成された第1抜け止め面(48)と支持アーム(52)の鉤部(56)に形成された第2抜け止め面(57)とによって狭圧される。これにより、U字状連結部材(6)は、ホルダ(4)の離脱方向の力に対して大きな抗力を発揮する。従って、ホルダ(4)及びU字状連結部材(6)がヒンジフレーム(50)から離脱することはない。 For example, when the first casing (1) and the second casing (2) are opened and accidentally dropped on the floor surface, the first casing (1) and the second casing (2) are opened. When a large force in the direction of detachment of the holder (4) acts on the U-shaped connecting member (6) by applying a large impact force in the direction and opening the second housing (2) beyond the allowable limit, The hook part (64) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) is connected to the first retaining surface (48) formed in the concave part (47) of the holder (4) and the flange part (56) of the support arm (52). It is narrowed by the formed second retaining surface (57). Thereby, U-shaped connection member (6) exhibits a big resistance with respect to the force of the separation direction of holder (4). Therefore, the holder (4) and the U-shaped connecting member (6) are not detached from the hinge frame (50).
更に、落下等により、ヒンジフレーム(50)の一対の枢軸(53)(53)に沿う方向の力がU字状連結部材(6)及びホルダ(4)に作用したとしても、図14及び図15に示す如く、U字状連結部材(6)のフランジ部(63)の互いに対向する一対の両内側面が、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)の両側面にそれぞれ摺接し、該フランジ部(63)の両外側面が、ホルダ(4)の裏面側の連結部材摺接面(42)に突設さした下壁部(43)とホルダ(4)の表面側の連結部材摺接面(42)に突設した上壁部(46)にそれぞれ摺接しているので、U字状連結部材(6)は、ヒンジフレーム(50)の支持アーム(52)とホルダ(4)との間に拘束されることになる。従って、ホルダ(4)及びU字状連結部材(6)がヒンジフレーム(50)から離脱することはない。 Further, even if a force in the direction along the pair of pivots (53) and (53) of the hinge frame (50) acts on the U-shaped connecting member (6) and the holder (4) due to dropping or the like, FIG. As shown in FIG. 15, a pair of opposite inner surfaces of the flange portion (63) of the U-shaped connecting member (6) are in sliding contact with both side surfaces of the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50), respectively. Both outer side surfaces of the flange portion (63) project from the connecting member sliding contact surface (42) on the back surface side of the holder (4) and the connecting member slide on the front surface side of the holder (4). The U-shaped connecting member (6) is in contact with the support arm (52) of the hinge frame (50), the holder (4) and the upper wall portion (46) projecting from the contact surface (42). It will be restrained between. Therefore, the holder (4) and the U-shaped connecting member (6) are not detached from the hinge frame (50).

Yes.
Further, the frame sliding contact surface (88) of the hook portion (84) of the connecting piece (8) formed to cross in the second direction is in sliding contact with the bridge portion (59) of the hinge frame (50).
この状態において、例えば、前記第1筐体(1)及び第2筐体(2)を開いた状態で、誤って床面に落下させることにより、第1及び第2筐体(1)(2)に開き方向の大きな衝撃力が加わって、第1筐体(1)が許容限度以上に開かれた場合、カバー部材(7)には、第1方向及び第2方向の力が加わることになる。 In this state, for example, when the first casing (1) and the second casing (2) are opened, the first and second casings (1) (2) are accidentally dropped on the floor surface. ) Is subjected to a large impact force in the opening direction, and the first housing (1) is opened beyond the allowable limit, the force in the first direction and the second direction is applied to the cover member (7). Become.
カバー部材(7)に第1方向の力F1が加わると、カバー部材(7)の鉤部(74)が連結片(8)の第2突片(83)に受け止められて、該第1方向の力F1は、連結片(8)の第2突片(83)を介して連結片(8)に伝達される。更に、連結片(8)の第2突片(83)がヒンジフレーム(50)のブリッジ部(59)によって受け止められて、該第1方向の力F1は、連結片(8)を介してヒンジフレーム(50)に伝達されることになる。ヒンジフレーム(50)は金属製であり、高い剛性を有するので、該第1方向の力F1に対して大きな抗力を発揮する。従って、カバー部材(7)が第1筐体(1)から外れることはない。 When the force F1 in the first direction is applied to the cover member (7), the flange portion (74) of the cover member (7) is received by the second projecting piece (83) of the connecting piece (8), and the first direction The force F1 is transmitted to the connecting piece (8) via the second projecting piece (83) of the connecting piece (8). Further, the second projecting piece (83) of the connecting piece (8) is received by the bridge portion (59) of the hinge frame (50), and the force F1 in the first direction is hinged via the connecting piece (8). It will be transmitted to the frame (50). Since the hinge frame (50) is made of metal and has high rigidity, it exerts a large resistance against the force F1 in the first direction. Therefore, the cover member (7) does not come off from the first housing (1).
又、カバー部材(7)に第2方向の力F2が加わると、カバー部材(7)の鉤部(74)が連結片(8)の第3突片(85)に受け止められて、該第2方向の力F2は、連結片(8)の第3突片(85)を介して連結片(8)に伝達される。更に、連結片(8)のフック部(84)が前記ヒンジフレーム(50)のブリッジ部(59)によって受け止められて、該第2方向の力F2は、連結片(8)を介してヒンジフレーム(50)に伝達されることになる。従って、ヒンジフレーム(50)は、第2方向の力F2に対しても大きな抗力を発揮するので、第1方向の力F1と第2方向の力F2の合力からなる任意方向の力がカバー部材(7)に加わったとしても、カバー部材(7)及び連結片(8)が、ヒンジフレーム(50)から離脱することはない。
このため、カバー部材(7)を筐体にビス止めする必要がなく、組み立ては容易である。
Further, when the force F2 in the second direction is applied to the cover member (7), the collar portion (74) of the cover member (7) is received by the third projecting piece (85) of the connecting piece (8), and the first The force F2 in the two directions is transmitted to the connecting piece (8) via the third projecting piece (85) of the connecting piece (8). Further, the hook portion (84) of the connecting piece (8) is received by the bridge portion (59) of the hinge frame (50), and the force F2 in the second direction is received via the connecting piece (8). (50). Accordingly, since the hinge frame (50) exerts a large resistance against the force F2 in the second direction, a force in an arbitrary direction composed of the resultant force F1 in the first direction and the force F2 in the second direction is applied to the cover member. Even if added to (7), the cover member (7) and the connecting piece (8) will not be detached from the hinge frame (50).
For this reason, it is not necessary to screw the cover member (7) to the housing, and assembly is easy.
更に、図25に示す如く、カバー部材(7)は、本体部(71)の裏面に突設された爪部(73)が、下ケース半体(13)の凹状係合部(14)と互いに係合して、第1筐体(1)に取り付けられているので、カバー部材(7)は、第1筐体(1)の開口(15)を閉塞した状態に確実に保持されることになる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 25, the cover member (7) has a claw portion (73) projecting from the back surface of the main body portion (71) and a concave engagement portion (14) of the lower case half (13).
