DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure for mounting an operation device of an electric device on the surface of a partition panel having a wiring gap between two panels.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An operation device in which a switch, a numeric keypad, a pilot lamp, an outlet, etc. (hereinafter referred to as a switch, etc.) (hereinafter referred to as a switch, etc.) for operating a lighting device, an audio-visual device such as a television or an audio device, and other electric devices is mounted on an operation panel. As a conventional structure to be mounted on the surface of the partition panel, for example, a mounting hole is formed in one panel of the partition panel, and the edge of the operation panel is brought into close contact with the front or back of the edge of the mounting hole. Some are screwed down.

[0003]

In the case where the operation panel is screwed to the front of the panel, the head of the screw is exposed to impair the aesthetic appearance and the operability from the oblique side of the panel is poor. is there.

If the operation panel is screwed to the back of the panel, inspection and repair of the switch cannot be performed unless the partition panel itself is disassembled, which is troublesome and requires little space behind the switch. Therefore, there is a possibility that a connection portion such as a switch of a cord disposed between the two panels may be forcibly bent to cause disconnection or the like.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and makes it possible to easily perform inspection and repair of a switch and the like. It is an object of the present invention to provide a structure for mounting an operating device of an electric device to a partition panel that is not forced and that can be easily operated from an oblique side and has a good appearance.

[0006]

According to the present invention, the above-mentioned problem is solved as follows. (1) A mounting hole is formed in one of the partition panels having a wiring gap between two panels, and a mounting frame projecting from the panel is fixed to an edge of the mounting hole. An edge portion of an operation panel having a switch and the like connected to cords inserted into the gap is fixed to the tip end surface of the mounting frame by abutting the edge portion of the operation panel and the outer periphery of the mounting frame. , Covered with a cosmetic cover.

(2) In the above item (1), the surface of the operation panel is directed obliquely to the side by making the protrusions of the mounting frame and the decorative cover from the panel different from each other.

[0008] (3) In the above item (1) or (2), the locking piece provided with the decorative cover facing upward from the rear of the upper surface thereof is locked to the inner surface of the upper edge of the mounting hole in the panel, and the lower surface is fixed to the lower surface. Screw it to the underside of the mounting frame and attach it to the mounting frame.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 4 schematically shows an audiovisual booth to which the present invention is applied. (1) is a partition panel which is a so-called low partition, and (2) is a television, a video, an audio device, etc. (3) is a chair arranged in the booth, and (4) is an operating device of the audiovisual device (2).

As shown in FIGS. 1-3, a partition panel
In (1), a wiring gap (6) is provided between two parallel panels (5a) and (5b). Panel (5b)
Is made of a sound insulating material, on the surface of which a cosmetic cloth (5c) is stuck.

A rectangular mounting hole (7) is formed at a key point between the panel (5b) and the cloth (5c), and a pair of right and left mounting plates (8) having a substantially Z-shape are formed on both side edges thereof. Are fixed from the inner surface of the panel (5b) with screws or an adhesive.

A rectangular mounting frame (9) is provided on the front surface of the mounting plate (8).
Is screwed. The mounting frame (9) is such that the left side piece (9a) in FIG. 2 has a forward protrusion amount from the panel (5b) larger than the forward protrusion amount of the right side piece (9b) from the panel (5b). By inclining both side pieces (9a) and (9b) slightly rightward, the front end face of the inward flange (9c) at the front end faces obliquely sideways.

An operation device (4) includes a switch (10) for operating an audio-visual device (2), a lighting device (not shown), a numeric keypad, a pilot lamp, and an outlet on an operation panel (4b) having a flange (4a) on a peripheral portion. The flange (4a) is brought into contact with the front surface of the inward flange (9c) of the mounting frame (9) with the switch (etc.) connected to the cord (12) that penetrates through the gap. It is mounted in the mounting frame (9) by screwing.

A decorative cover having substantially the same shape is provided on the mounting frame (9).
(10) is externally fitted, and the inward flange (10
a) covers the flange (4a) of the actuator (4),
The operation panel (4b) of (4) is exposed.

The decorative cover (10) has an engaging piece (10c) bent upward at the rear end of the upper surface plate (10b), and is provided with a mounting hole (7) in the panel (5b) of the partition panel (1). The lower surface plate (10d) of the decorative cover (10) is engaged with the inner surface of the upper edge from the inner lower side and the mounting frame (9).
The screw (11) is fixed to the lower surface plate (9d) from below so as to be detachably attached to the attachment frame (9).

The cord (12), one end of which is connected to the rear surface of the operating device (4), has a mounting frame (9), a mounting hole (7), and a partition panel (1).
It is connected to an audio-visual device (2) or a power supply through an internal space.

The operating device (4) can be inclined in the opposite direction or up and down according to the arrangement of various devices in the booth and other conditions.

[0018]

The present invention has the following effects. (1) According to the first aspect of the present invention, after removing the decorative cover, by taking out the operation panel forward, inspection and repair of the switch and the like can be easily performed, and the mounting frame is located forward of the panel. Because of the protrusion, the connection portion of the cords to the switch or the like is not forcibly bent, and the risk of disconnection or the like can be prevented.

(2) With the configuration as described in the second aspect of the present invention, the operability when operating the operating device from an oblique side with respect to the panel is improved. For example, when a chaise lounge or the like is provided so as to face the audio-visual equipment, and the operation device is mounted on a partition panel provided on the side of the chaise lounge, the operator sits down on the chaise lounge and looks at the audio-visual device while operating the operation device. Operable and convenient.

(3) With the configuration as described in the third aspect of the present invention, the mounting of the decorative cover is simplified, and the head of the screw is not conspicuous and the appearance is good.
