Note that a remote controller 8 is also provided for remote control commands.

[0003]

The above-mentioned conventional monitor with a remote control light-receiving section has the following problems. The filter 5 and the cover 7 need to be arranged side by side on the front of the casing 1, and the casing 1 becomes unnecessarily larger than the original LCD panel 6. In particular, cover 7
Is designed to be slightly larger than the LCD panel 6 due to a design problem, and the periphery of the display portion is colored black to form a sharp image. Must be large.

[0004] An operator is located in front of the monitor screen, and normally operates the remote controller 8 with the remote control 8 facing the monitor screen. But,
Since the remote control light-receiving unit 2 is disposed at a side or a corner that is inconspicuous, it cannot be said that it is the best position. Since the filter 5 is a small component, the mounting is troublesome. If the locking structure is such that the filter 5 is easily mounted, abnormal noise may be generated by vibration. The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and has as its object to provide a monitor with a remote control light-receiving unit that can be easily assembled and have good light-receiving performance while reducing the overall size.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing a monitor with a remote control light receiving unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing an assembled state.

In FIG. 1, a horizontally long rectangular thin casing 10 has a through-hole 11 for mounting an LCD panel 20 on the front thereof, and a light-receiving element 30 is provided below and parallel to the through-hole 11. Recess 12 for mounting
Is formed. Further, a stepped portion 13 is formed around the through hole 11 and the concave portion 12 by denting the peripheral portion of the casing 10 by the thickness of the cover 40. This step 13
Is slightly wider in the circumferential direction than the rectangular through-hole 11, and is linear in both the left and right directions and the upper side corresponding to the shape of the through-hole 11. It has a shape in which it is extended and the center part in the width direction is slightly expanded.

The cover 40 is formed of a transparent resin whose outer shape matches the outer shape of the step portion 13.
The light receiving element 30 is mounted on the same step 13 so as to cover the light receiving element 30. A film 31 having a filter function of transmitting infrared rays for remote control commands but shielding visible light is adhered to the back surface of the portion facing the concave portion 12. In the present embodiment, the casing 10 has a horizontally long rectangular shape and thin shape corresponding to the LCD panel 20, but the display may be a CRT in addition to the LCD panel, and accordingly, the casing 10 may be square or thick. What should be done. Further, a concave portion 1 for mounting the light receiving element 30 is provided.
No. 2 need not necessarily be arranged below the through-hole 11 and may be formed adjacent to the through-hole 11. Therefore, it may be arranged above or right and left due to a design problem.

Further, in the present embodiment, the film 31 having a filter function is attached to the back surface of the cover 40, but it is sufficient that a film having the filter function is disposed at least on the entire surface of the light receiving element 30. Therefore, a paint may be attached instead of the film, or a separate filter may be provided. In general, the periphery of the LCD panel 20 of the cover 40 is often colored black, but the filter that blocks visible light is also black.
If the entire periphery is covered, the coloring operation for blackening can be omitted.

Next, the operation of this embodiment having the above configuration will be described. The LCD panel 20 and the light receiving element 30 are mounted on the casing 10, covered with the cover 40, and mounted. Then, in appearance, one cover 4 is provided on the front of the casing 10.
0 is only attached, and this cover 40 is slightly bulging downward. If the light receiving element 30 is located at a position where the light receiving element 30 is not covered by the cover 40, the light receiving element 30 must be further away from the LCD panel 20 in order to separately mount a filter, and the casing 10 becomes large. I do. However, if the light receiving element 3 is simultaneously covered with the cover 40 as in the present invention,
0 can be made adjacent to the LCD panel 20, and the size can be reduced. When the operator attempts to operate the remote controller 50, the operator normally operates the remote controller 50 toward the front of the casing 10. Since the light receiving element 30 for receiving the command light is disposed at the lower center of the LCD panel 20, it is easy to receive the command light,
Malfunction is unlikely to occur.

As described above, the light receiving element 3 as a remote control light receiving section is adjacent to the LCD panel 20 as a monitor screen.
0, and the LCD panel 20 and the light receiving element 30 are covered by a cover 40 in which a film having a filter function is attached to the back surface.
The casing 10 can be reduced in size by simultaneously covering the lid and the lid.
