Sector de la técnica La presente invención concierne en general, en un primer aspecto, a un conjunto de aparato ocultable, configurado para que en una posición de ocultación cubra una abertura pasante de un tablero o panel en el que se instale, sin la necesidad de utilizar una tapa. TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention generally concerns, in a first aspect, a set of concealed apparatus, configured so that in a concealed position it covers a through opening of a board or panel in which it is installed, without the need for Use a lid.
Un segundo aspecto de la invención concierne a un sistema que incluye un tablero o panel y al conjunto del primer aspecto montado en el mismo. A second aspect of the invention concerns a system that includes a board or panel and the assembly of the first aspect mounted thereon.
Estado de la técnica anterior Prior art
Son conocidos conjuntos de aparatos ocultables, que comprenden los elementos definidos en el preámbulo de la reivindicación 1 de la presente invención, es decir: Sets of concealable devices are known, comprising the elements defined in the preamble of claim 1 of the present invention, that is:
- una estructura de soporte configurada para fijarse a una cara oculta de un tablero o panel de un grosor determinado, en una región adyacente al contorno de una abertura pasante del mismo; y - a support structure configured to be fixed to a hidden face of a board or panel of a certain thickness, in a region adjacent to the contour of a through opening thereof; Y
- un aparato y una estructura móvil de soporte del aparato fijada de manera guiada a dicha estructura de soporte para desplazarse linealmente, junto con el aparato, entre una posición de ocultación determinada para que cuando la estructura de soporte se encuentre fijada a dicha cara oculta de dicho tablero o panel el aparato no sobresalga por dicha abertura pasante, y una posición de uso determinada para que sí que sobresalga por la abertura pasante, y viceversa. - an apparatus and a mobile support structure of the apparatus fixed in a guided manner to said support structure to move linearly, together with the apparatus, between a certain concealed position so that when the support structure is fixed to said hidden face of said board or panel the apparatus does not protrude through said through opening, and a position of use determined so that it does protrude through the through opening, and vice versa.
Los conjuntos de aparatos ocultables del estado de la técnica incluyen adicionalmente una tapa para cubrir la abertura pasante del tablero o panel en la posición de ocultación del aparato, y en algunos casos, adicionalmente, también una carátula o marco superior que se fija al contorno de la abertura pasante definida en el tablero o panel The sets of concealable devices of the prior art additionally include a cover to cover the through opening of the board or panel in the concealed position of the apparatus, and in some cases, additionally, also a cover or upper frame that is fixed to the contour of the through opening defined on the board or panel
Un ejemplo de tales conjuntos conocidos se halla descrito en el modelo de utilidad ES1158985U, del propio solicitante. Tales conjuntos conocidos en el estado de la técnica necesitan que la abertura pasante del tablero o panel en el que se instalen tenga unas dimensiones considerables, tanto para la disposición de la tapa como de la carátula o marco, así como, en ocasiones, para permitir el giro o inclinación del aparato, en general cuando éste es una pantalla. An example of such known sets is described in the utility model ES1158985U, of the applicant himself. Such assemblies known in the state of the art need that the through opening of the board or panel in which they are installed have considerable dimensions, both for the arrangement of the cover and of the cover or frame, as well as, sometimes, to allow the rotation or inclination of the apparatus, in general when this is a screen.
Aparece, por tanto, necesario ofrecer una alternativa al estado de la técnica que cubra las lagunas halladas en el mismo, proporcionando un conjunto de aparato ocultable mejorado en especial en lo relativo a que su diseño permita reducir las dimensiones de la mencionada abertura pasante del tablero o panel, así como simplificar el conjunto de aparato, tanto en número de elementos como estructural y mecánicamente. It appears, therefore, necessary to offer an alternative to the state of the art that covers the gaps found therein, providing a set of concealable apparatus especially improved in that its design allows reducing the dimensions of said board through-opening opening or panel, as well as simplify the set of apparatus, both in number of elements and structurally and mechanically.
Explicación de la invención Explanation of the invention.
Con tal fin, un primer aspecto de la presente invención concierne, de manera en sí conocida, a un conjunto de aparato ocultable, que comprende: To this end, a first aspect of the present invention concerns, in a manner known per se, a set of concealable apparatus, comprising:
- una estructura de soporte configurada para fijarse a una cara oculta de un tablero o panel de un grosor determinado, en una región adyacente al contorno de una abertura pasante del mismo; y - a support structure configured to be fixed to a hidden face of a board or panel of a certain thickness, in a region adjacent to the contour of a through opening thereof; Y
- un aparato y una estructura móvil de soporte del aparato fijada de manera guiada a dicha estructura de soporte para desplazarse linealmente, junto con el aparato, entre una posición de ocultación determinada para que cuando la estructura de soporte se encuentre fijada a dicha cara oculta de dicho tablero o panel el aparato no sobresalga por dicha abertura pasante, y una posición de uso determinada para que sí que sobresalga por la abertura pasante, y viceversa. - an apparatus and a mobile support structure of the apparatus fixed in a guided manner to said support structure to move linearly, together with the apparatus, between a certain concealed position so that when the support structure is fixed to said hidden face of said board or panel the apparatus does not protrude through said through opening, and a position of use determined so that it does protrude through the through opening, and vice versa.
A diferencia de los conjuntos del estado de la técnica, el propuesto por la presente invención está configurado para que en la posición de ocultación determinada una cara vista y plana del aparato cubra al menos a parte de la abertura pasante y quede enrasada con una región plana de una cara vista del tablero o panel que rodea a la abertura pasante. Unlike the assemblies of the state of the art, the one proposed by the present invention is configured so that in the determined hiding position a visible and flat face of the apparatus covers at least part of the through opening and is flush with a flat region of a face seen from the board or panel surrounding the through opening.
En general, la estructura de soporte se fija a una cara inferior de un tablero horizontal, de una mesa o similar, aunque también puede fijarse a una cara trasera de un panel o tablero vertical o con cualquier inclinación, de otro tipo de mueble o elemento de cerramiento. Se consigue así, entre otros objetivos, prescindir de la tapa que en los conjuntos conocidos se utiliza para cubrir a la abertura pasante, y los mecanismos asociados a su movimiento, así como reducir las dimensiones de tal abertura. De acuerdo a un ejemplo de realización, el aparato está articulado a la estructura móvil a través de un eje de rotación paralelo a dicha cara vista y plana del aparato. In general, the support structure is fixed to a lower face of a horizontal board, of a table or the like, although it can also be fixed to a rear face of a vertical panel or board or with any inclination, of another type of furniture or element of enclosure. Thus, among other objectives, it is possible to dispense with the cover that is used in the known assemblies to cover the through opening, and the mechanisms associated with its movement, as well as reduce the dimensions of such opening. According to an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus is articulated to the mobile structure through an axis of rotation parallel to said flat and visible face of the apparatus.
De manera preferida, el citado eje de articulación está configurado y dispuesto para que, en la posición de uso determinada, quede enrasado con la región plana de la cara vista del tablero o panel o sobresalga con respecto a la misma. De esta manera, no es necesario aumentar las dimensiones de la abertura pasante del tablero o panel para permitir las distintas posiciones adoptables por el aparado durante la rotación del mismo a través del eje de rotación. Preferably, said articulation axis is configured and arranged so that, in the determined use position, it is flush with the flat region of the face seen of the board or panel or protrudes with respect thereto. In this way, it is not necessary to increase the dimensions of the through opening of the board or panel to allow the different positions that can be adopted by the switchboard during the rotation thereof through the axis of rotation.
De manera menos preferida, el eje de articulación está configurado y dispuesto para que, en la posición de uso determinada, quede situado entre la cara oculta y la cara vista del tablero o panel. Less preferably, the articulation axis is configured and arranged so that, in the determined position of use, it is located between the hidden face and the exposed face of the board or panel.
Es importante remarcar que cuanto más por debajo de la cara vista del tablero se encuentre dispuesto este eje de articulación, mayor deberá ser el margen establecido entre el aparato y el contorno de la abertura pasante del tablero o panel, para evitar contacto entre ambos al inclinarse el aparato. It is important to note that the more below the exposed face of the board this articulation axis is arranged, the greater the margin established between the apparatus and the contour of the through opening of the board or panel should be, to avoid contact between the two when tilting the device
El conjunto propuesto por el primer aspecto de la invención comprende, de acuerdo a un ejemplo de realización, unos medios de accionamiento acoplados cinemáticamente al aparato para hacerlo rotar alrededor del eje de articulación entre una primera y una segunda posición, y viceversa. The assembly proposed by the first aspect of the invention comprises, according to an embodiment, drive means kinematically coupled to the apparatus to rotate it around the axis of articulation between a first and a second position, and vice versa.
Aunque los mencionados medios de accionamiento son, para un ejemplo de realización, unos medios de accionamiento que permiten la rotación del aparato de manera manual por parte de un usuario, preferentemente éstos son automáticos para lo cual comprenden un motor giratorio cuyo eje de transmisión está acoplado, a través de una cadena cinemática, al aparato para hacerlo rotar alrededor del eje de articulación. Although said drive means are, for one embodiment, drive means that allow the rotation of the apparatus manually by a user, preferably these are automatic for which they comprise a rotating motor whose transmission shaft is coupled , through a kinematic chain, to the apparatus to rotate it around the axis of articulation.
De acuerdo a una implementación de dicho ejemplo de realización, la mencionada cadena cinemática comprende: - por lo menos una manivela articulada con respecto a la estructura móvil a través de un eje de rotación adicional paralelo al citado eje de rotación, que está conectada al eje de transmisión del motor para girar alrededor del eje de rotación adicional bajo la acción del motor, y que tiene una ranura dispuesta en una porción de la manivela ubicada entre ambos ejes de rotación; y According to an implementation of said embodiment, said kinematic chain comprises: - at least one articulated crank with respect to the movable structure through an additional rotation axis parallel to said rotation axis, which is connected to the motor transmission axis to rotate around the additional rotation axis under the action of the motor , and having a groove disposed in a portion of the crank located between both axes of rotation; Y
- por lo menos una palanca con un primer extremo unido al aparato y un segundo extremo, opuesto al primero, del que sobresale al menos un pin insertado en la citada ranura para que al girar la manivela alrededor del eje de rotación adicional sea empujado por el contorno interior de la ranura girando y desplazándose linealmente por la misma haciendo girar a la palanca junto con el aparato alrededor del eje de rotación. - at least one lever with a first end attached to the apparatus and a second end, opposite the first, from which at least one pin inserted in said groove protrudes so that when turning the crank around the axis of additional rotation it is pushed by the interior contour of the groove rotating and moving linearly through it, rotating the lever together with the apparatus around the axis of rotation.
Preferentemente, el eje de rotación adicional se encuentra descentrado con respecto al eje de rotación. Preferably, the additional axis of rotation is offset from the axis of rotation.
Otras cadenas cinemáticas diferentes a la descrita en los párrafos anteriores también son posibles, para otros ejemplos de realización. Incluso es posible acoplar directamente el eje de transmisión del motor giratorio al eje de articulación del aparato, en especial si la disposición de éste hace que no sobresalga por la abertura pasante del tablero o panel. Other kinematic chains different from the one described in the previous paragraphs are also possible, for other examples of realization. It is even possible to directly connect the drive shaft of the rotating motor to the articulation axis of the apparatus, especially if its arrangement does not protrude through the through opening of the board or panel.
Según un ejemplo de realización, la estructura de soporte define un alojamiento con una abertura de acceso al mismo por la que el aparato entra/sale del alojamiento al desplazarse linealmente entre las posiciones de uso y de ocultación, y viceversa. El eje de rotación adicional queda alojado en el alojamiento definido por la estructura de soporte para todas las posiciones a adoptar por la estructura móvil. According to an exemplary embodiment, the support structure defines a housing with an access opening thereto through which the apparatus enters / leaves the housing when moving linearly between the use and concealment positions, and vice versa. The additional rotation axis is housed in the housing defined by the support structure for all positions to be adopted by the mobile structure.
De acuerdo con otro ejemplo de realización, el conjunto del primer aspecto de la invención comprende por lo menos un elemento adicional con una cara vista y plana que, tanto en la posición de uso como en la posición de ocultación, cubre al menos una parte de la abertura pasante, que es adyacente a la que queda cubierta por la cara vista y plana del aparato, y queda enrasada con la citada región plana de la cara vista del tablero o panel. According to another exemplary embodiment, the assembly of the first aspect of the invention comprises at least one additional element with a visible and flat face which, both in the use position and in the concealment position, covers at least a part of the through opening, which is adjacent to that which is covered by the visible and flat side of the apparatus, and is flush with said flat region of the face seen from the board or panel.
Según un ejemplo de realización, el conjunto del primer aspecto de la invención comprende unos medios de control eléctricos y/o electrónicos para el control automático de los citados medios de accionamiento, que comprende al menos un pulsador que constituye dicho elemento adicional, cuando es el caso, u otro elemento de accionamiento, local o remoto, con respecto al aparato. According to an embodiment, the assembly of the first aspect of the invention comprises electrical and / or electronic control means for the automatic control of said actuation means, which comprises at least one button constituting said additional element, where appropriate, or another drive element, local or remote, with respect to the apparatus.
Ventajosamente, unos tramos del contorno exterior de la cara vista y plana del elemento adicional tienen una forma complementaria a la de unos tramos adyacentes del contorno de la abertura pasante, y por lo menos un tramo del contorno exterior de la cara vista y plana del elemento adicional tiene una forma complementaria a la de un tramo del contorno de una sección transversal del aparato que queda adyacente en la posición de uso. De manera preferida, el aparato es una pantalla, siendo la citada cara vista y plana del aparato la cara superior del canto superior de la pantalla. Advantageously, sections of the outer contour of the visible and flat face of the additional element have a complementary shape to that of adjacent sections of the contour of the through opening, and at least one section of the outer contour of the visible and flat face of the element additionally it has a complementary shape to that of a section of the contour of a cross section of the apparatus that is adjacent in the position of use. Preferably, the apparatus is a screen, said face being seen and flat of the apparatus the upper face of the upper edge of the screen.

Detailed description of some embodiments
Tal y como se ilustra en las Figuras 1a y 1 b, la presente invención concierne, en un primer aspecto, a un conjunto de aparato ocultable, que comprende, para el ejemplo de realización ilustrado: As illustrated in Figures 1a and 1b, the present invention concerns, in a first aspect, a concealable apparatus assembly, comprising, for the illustrated embodiment example:
- una estructura de soporte H, que define un alojamiento, y que está configurada para fijarse a una cara oculta de un tablero 3 o panel de un grosor determinado, en este caso una cara inferior de un tablero 3 (en general de una mesa) en una región adyacente al contorno de una abertura pasante 01 del mismo; y - a support structure H, which defines a housing, and which is configured to be fixed to a hidden face of a board 3 or panel of a certain thickness, in this case a lower face of a board 3 (generally of a table) in a region adjacent to the contour of a through opening 01 thereof; Y
- una pantalla 2 y una estructura móvil 7 (ilustrada esquemáticamente en las Figuras 6a y 6b) de soporte de la pantalla 2 fijada de manera guiada (fijación no ilustrada) a la estructura de soporte H para desplazarse linealmente, junto con la pantalla 2, entre una posición de ocultación (Figura 1 b) determinada para que cuando la estructura de soporte H se encuentre fijada a la cara oculta del tablero 3 o panel la pantalla 2 no sobresalga por la abertura pasante 01 , y una posición de uso (Figura 1 a) determinada para que sí que sobresalga por la abertura pasante 01 , y viceversa. - a screen 2 and a movable structure 7 (schematically illustrated in Figures 6a and 6b) supporting the screen 2 fixed in a guided manner (fixing not shown) to the support structure H to move linearly, together with the screen 2, between a concealed position (Figure 1 b) determined so that when the support structure H is fixed to the hidden face of the board 3 or panel the screen 2 does not protrude through the through opening 01, and a use position (Figure 1 a) determined so that it protrudes through the opening 01, and vice versa.
Tal y como se ilustra en especial en las Figuras 1a y 1 b, la estructura de soporte H define un alojamiento con una abertura 02 de acceso al mismo por la que la pantalla 2 entra/sale del alojamiento al desplazarse linealmente, junto con la estructura móvil 7, entre las posiciones de uso y de ocultación, y viceversa. As illustrated in particular in Figures 1a and 1b, the support structure H defines a housing with an access opening 02 through which the screen 2 enters / exits the housing when moving linearly, together with the structure mobile 7, between the positions of use and concealment, and vice versa.
En las Figuras 2a, 2b, 3, 4a, 4b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a y 8b se ilustra al conjunto del primer aspecto de la presente invención montado en una tablero de una mesa, constituyendo así el sistema del segundo aspecto de la presente invención. En las Figuras 2b y 3 se aprecia la citada posición de ocultación en la que la pantalla 2 no sobresale por la abertura pasante 01 , y en las Figuras 2a, 4b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a y 8b la citada posición de uso en la que la pantalla 2 sobresale por la abertura pasante 01. In Figures 2a, 2b, 3, 4a, 4b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a and 8b the whole of the first aspect of the present invention mounted on a tabletop is illustrated, thus constituting the system of the second aspect of the present invention Figures 2b and 3 show the aforementioned concealment position in which the screen 2 does not protrude through the through opening 01, and in Figures 2a, 4b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a and 8b the said position of use in which screen 2 protrudes through the opening 01.
Según la presente invención, el conjunto de aparato ocultable está configurado para que en la posición de ocultación determinada una cara vista y plana 2a de la pantalla 2 cubra por lo menos una parte de la abertura pasante 01 y quede enrasada con una región plana de una cara vista (en este caso una cara superior) del tablero 3 o panel que rodea a la abertura pasante 01. Esta situación se ilustra en particular en la Figura 3, donde puede apreciarse donde la cara superior 2a de la pantalla 2 cubre la mayor parte de la abertura pasante 01 , con excepción de cierta holgura o tolerancia (de pocos milímetros) y de una porción que cubre el pulsador 5. En función del ejemplo de realización, no se dispone de ningún pulsador 5 (Figura 7a), de uno (Figura 7b) o de dos (Figura 7c) o más pulsadores 5 (para implementar diferentes funciones, en función de la aplicación). According to the present invention, the concealable apparatus assembly is configured so that in the determined concealment position a flat and visible face 2a of the screen 2 covers at least a part of the through opening 01 and is flush with a flat region of a view face (in this case an upper face) of the board 3 or panel surrounding the through opening 01. This situation is illustrated in particular in Figure 3, where it can be seen where the upper face 2a of the screen 2 covers most of the through opening 01, with the exception of a certain clearance or tolerance (of a few millimeters) and of a portion that covers the push-button 5. Depending on the exemplary embodiment, no push-button 5 (Figure 7a), of one ( Figure 7b) or two (Figure 7c) or more buttons 5 (to implement different functions, depending on the application).
Según se aprecia en las Figura 4b, 5, 6a y 6b, la pantalla 2 está articulada a la estructura móvil 7 (mostrada en las Figura 6a y 6b) a través de un eje de rotación A (ilustrado de manera esquemática) paralelo a la cara vista y plana 2a de la pantalla 2. As shown in Figures 4b, 5, 6a and 6b, the screen 2 is articulated to the mobile structure 7 (shown in Figures 6a and 6b) through a rotation axis A (illustrated schematically) parallel to the face view and flat 2a of the screen 2.
El eje de articulación A se desplaza junto con la estructura móvil 7, y, en este caso, está configurado y dispuesto para que, en la posición de uso determinada, quede enrasado con la región plana de la cara vista del tablero 3 o panel, tal y como se ilustra en especial en la Figura 5. De esta manera cuando la pantalla A se inclina ocupa el menor espacio posible del margen establecido con el mueble. The articulation axis A travels together with the mobile structure 7, and, in this case, is configured and arranged so that, in the determined use position, it is flush with the flat region of the exposed face of the board 3 or panel, as illustrated in particular in Figure 5. In this way, when the screen A tilts, it occupies the smallest possible space of the margin established with the furniture.
En la Figura 9 también se ilustra al eje de articulación A enrasado con la región plana de la cara vista del tablero 3 o panel, el cual, como puede verse en la Figura, tiene unas paredes 3a que delimitan la abertura pasante 01 y que son perpendiculares a la cara vista del tablero 3. Figure 9 also illustrates the axis of articulation A flush with the flat region of the exposed face of the board 3 or panel, which, as can be seen in the Figure, has walls 3a that delimit the through opening 01 and which are perpendicular to the face of the board 3.
En las Figuras 6a y 6b se ilustran parte de unos medios de accionamiento que hacen rotar a la pantalla alrededor del eje de articulación A entre una primera y una segunda posición, y viceversa, siendo la primera posición, por ejemplo, la posición vertical ilustrada en las Figuras 6a y 4a (donde la pantalla 2 se ha desplazado verticalmente sin llegar a su punto de altura máxima), y la posición inclinada ilustrada en las Figuras 1 a, 2a, 4b, 5, 6b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a y 8b. Figures 6a and 6b illustrate part of a drive means that rotates the screen around the axis of articulation A between a first and a second position, and vice versa, the first position being, for example, the vertical position illustrated in the figures 6a and 4a (where the screen 2 has moved vertically without reaching its maximum height point), and the inclined position illustrated in Figures 1 a, 2a, 4b, 5, 6b, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a and 8b .
Los medios de accionamiento comprenden un motor giratorio (no ilustrado) cuyo eje de transmisión está acoplado, a través de una cadena cinemática, a la pantalla 2 para hacerla rotar alrededor del eje de articulación A. The drive means comprise a rotating motor (not illustrated) whose transmission axis is coupled, through a kinematic chain, to the screen 2 to rotate it around the articulation axis A.
Tal y como se aprecia en las Figuras 6a y 6b, la citada cadena cinemática comprende: - una manivela 8 articulada con respecto a la estructura móvil 7 a través de un eje de rotación adicional B paralelo al eje de rotación A, y dispuesto por debajo del mismo, que está conectada al eje de transmisión del motor para girar alrededor del de rotación adicional B bajo la acción del motor, y que tiene una ranura R dispuesta en una porción extrema de la manivela 8 ubicada entre ambos ejes de rotación A, B; y As can be seen in Figures 6a and 6b, the said kinematic chain comprises: - a crank 8 articulated with respect to the mobile structure 7 through an additional axis of rotation B parallel to the axis of rotation A, and arranged below thereof, which is connected to the motor drive shaft to rotate around the additional rotation B under the action of the engine, and which has a groove R arranged in an end portion of the crank 8 located between both rotation axes A, B ; Y
- una palanca 9 con un primer extremo unido a una porción inferior de la pantalla 2 y un segundo extremo, opuesto al primero, del que sobresale un pin C insertado en la ranura R para que al girar la manivela 8 alrededor del eje de rotación adicional B sea empujado por el contorno interior de la ranura R girando y desplazándose linealmente por la misma (es decir, por un recorrido delimitado), haciendo girar a la palanca 9 junto con la pantalla 2 alrededor del eje de rotación A. - a lever 9 with a first end attached to a lower portion of the screen 2 and a second end, opposite the first, from which a pin C inserted in the groove R protrudes so that by turning the crank 8 around the axis of additional rotation B is pushed by the inner contour of the groove R by turning and moving linearly there (ie, a limited path), turning the lever 9 together with the screen 2 around the axis of rotation A.
En la Figura 6a se ha ilustrado una posición vertical de la pantalla 2 para la que el pin C ocupa un primer extremo de la ranura R, y en la Figura 6b una posición inclinada de la pantalla 2 en la que el pin C ocupa el otro extremo de la ranura R, habiéndose pasado de una otra posición según se ha explicado en el párrafo anterior, es decir por empuje del propio contorno interior de la ranura R al ser hecha girar la manivela 8 alrededor del eje de rotación adicional B. A vertical position of the screen 2 is illustrated in Figure 6a for which the pin C occupies a first end of the slot R, and in Figure 6b an inclined position of the screen 2 in which the pin C occupies the other end of the groove R, having passed from another position as explained in the previous paragraph, that is to say by pushing the inner contour of the groove R when the crank 8 is rotated around the axis of additional rotation B.
Como se aprecia en las Figuras 6a y 6b, ambos ejes se encuentran fijados a la estructura móvil de manera que están descentrados entre sí, estando en particular el eje A más próximo a la estructura móvil que el eje B. Esta disposición tiene como fin posibilitar que el par proporcionado por el motor no deba ser demasiado grande para hacer girar a la pantalla 2. As can be seen in Figures 6a and 6b, both axes are fixed to the mobile structure so that they are offset from each other, in particular axis A being closer to the mobile structure than axis B. This arrangement is intended to enable that the torque provided by the motor must not be too large to rotate screen 2.
En general, el pulsador 5 tiene como función la de activar tanto el desplazamiento vertical de la pantalla 2, según el movimiento indicado por la línea de flecha en la Figura 4a, como el de rotación, inclinándose según se indica por la línea de flecha de la Figura 4b (en general hasta unos 20° con respecto a la vertical), e incluso, en algunos casos, una vez la pantalla 2 ha alcanzado su posición vertical máxima, una pulsación continua del pulsador 5 permite regular la posición de inclinación de la pantalla 2. Todos los citados movimientos, así como los correspondientes movimientos inversos de retorno de la pantalla 2 a sus posiciones originales (tanto de inclinación como vertical) pueden llevarse a cabo con un único pulsador (mediante diferentes pulsaciones del mismo), con varios pulsadores, mediante un control externo al conjunto, o mediante un pulsador de proximidad o táctil ubicado en la cara vista y plana 2a de la pantalla 2, en cuyo caso no sería necesario incluir ningún pulsador 5. In general, the button 5 has the function of activating both the vertical displacement of the screen 2, according to the movement indicated by the arrow line in Figure 4a, and the rotation, inclining as indicated by the arrow line of Figure 4b (generally up to about 20 ° with respect to the vertical), and even, in some cases, once the screen 2 has reached its maximum vertical position, a continuous press of the button 5 allows to regulate the tilting position of the screen 2. All the mentioned movements , as well as the corresponding inverse movements of return of the screen 2 to its original positions (both inclination and vertical) can be carried out with a single push-button (by different presses of the same), with several push-buttons, by means of an external control to the set , or by means of a proximity or touch button located on the flat and visible side 2a of the screen 2, in which case it would not be necessary to include any button 5.
Según se aprecia en las Figuras 3, 8a y 8b parte del contorno exterior de la cara vista y plana 2a de la pantalla 2 tiene una forma complementaria a la de los correspondientes tramos adyacentes del contorno de la abertura pasante 01 , y parte del contorno exterior de la cara vista y plana del pulsador 5 también tiene una forma complementaria a la de los correspondientes tramos adyacentes del contorno de la abertura pasante 01 y otra parte a la de un tramo del contorno de una sección transversal de la pantalla 2 que queda adyacente en la posición de uso, en particular de su canto lateral. En particular, en las Figuras 3 y 8a, la abertura pasante 01 tiene un contorno rectangular, y lo mismo sucede con el de la cara 2a de la pantalla 2 y su canto lateral, así como con el de la cara superior del pulsador 5. En cambio, en la Figura 2b, los cantos laterales de la pantalla 2 son curvos, el del pulsador 5 tiene dos tramos curvos, uno de ellos complementario al de uno de los cantos laterales de la pantalla 2, y el contorno de la abertura pasante 01 también incluye dos tramos curvos, uno complementario a uno de los cantos laterales de la pantalla 2 y el otro al del otro tramo curvo del pulsador. As can be seen in Figures 3, 8a and 8b, part of the outer contour of the visible and flat face 2a of the screen 2 has a shape complementary to that of the corresponding adjacent sections of the contour of the through opening 01, and part of the outer contour of the visible and flat face of the button 5 it also has a complementary shape to that of the corresponding adjacent sections of the contour of the through opening 01 and another part to that of a section of the contour of a cross section of the screen 2 that is adjacent in the position of use, in particular of its lateral edge. In particular, in Figures 3 and 8a, the through opening 01 has a rectangular contour, and the same happens with that of the face 2a of the screen 2 and its lateral edge, as well as that of the upper face of the button 5. In contrast, in Figure 2b, the side edges of the screen 2 are curved, the one of the button 5 has two curved sections, one complementary to that of one of the side edges of the screen 2, and the contour of the through opening 01 also includes two curved sections, one complementary to one of the side edges of the screen 2 and the other to the other curved section of the button.
