[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a flat display mounting apparatus for mounting a flat type display and using the display on a desk, and more particularly to a flat display mounting apparatus capable of storing the display when the keyboard is not used.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Recently, OA devices such as personal computers (personal computers) have been widely used not only in offices but also in homes, and there is a remarkable spread.
[0003]
By the way, since the CRT display of the above-mentioned OA equipment has a large depth dimension, when used on a desk, it occupies a large surface of the desk, which significantly hinders other work.
[0004]
Therefore, in recent years, instead of CRT displays using cathode ray tubes, thin displays such as liquid crystals having a large and flat structure (hereinafter referred to as flat displays and abbreviated as FD in the specification) are rapidly spreading.
[0005]
The FD is conventionally used by placing the FD upright on an FD stand that can be placed upright on a desk, and placing the FD in an easily viewable position.
[0006]
However, in such a stand, when the FD is moved to a position where it can be used easily, the stand including the FD is heavy, so that the movement is not easy.
[0007]
Therefore, in order to be able to move the FD to a position where it can be easily used as necessary, an FD support arm 2 is attached to the rear part of the desk 1 as shown in FIG. The one that can be placed is adopted.
[0008]
In the FD support arm 2, a support column 5 is erected on a fixture 4 that can be engaged with and fixed to the rear edge of the top plate 1 a of the desk 1, and a first support arm 6 is provided on the upper side of the support column 5. Is protruded in the horizontal direction, and a second support arm 8 is rotatably connected to the front end of the support arm 6 via a vertical axis portion 7 in a horizontal plane. Further, the front end of the support arm 8 is shown in FIG. A bearing portion 11 on the back surface of the vertical back plate 10 of the FD mounting plate 9 having a substantially L-shape as viewed from the side is attached to be able to be raised and lowered by a horizontal shaft 12. The horizontal direction of the FD mounting plate 9 The FD 3 is placed upright on the mounting portion 13 projecting forward. The keyboard 14 and mouse for operation are placed on the desk 1 and used.
[0009]
Therefore, the FD placement plate 9 can be moved to an arbitrary position in the horizontal plane by turning the support arms 6 and 8, and the elevation angle is optimal by loosening the horizontal axis 12 and swinging about the horizontal axis 12. Can be set to any angle.
[0010]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By using the FD support arm 2 described above, when the FD 3 is not used, it can be retreated to an unobstructed position, so that the desk surface can be effectively used. Even if it was moved to the back of the desk, it still occupied a large space, and it was inevitable that it would interfere with other tasks.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
It is an object of the present invention to allow a keyboard and a mouse to be stored together with an FD in an FD support arm when the keyboard is not used, and to prevent other tasks from being performed on the desk surface. It is a thing.
[0012]
As a means for solving the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a flat display mounting apparatus in which a back plate of an FD mounting plate is supported so as to be able to be lifted and supported by a tip of an FD support arm that is fixed to a desk or the like and is rotatable in a horizontal plane. The FD placement board has a keyboard receiving member attached to the back of the back plate so that the keyboard can be placed and stored between the back plate and the keyboard receiving member.
[0013]
Then, the keyboard receiving member is bent and formed in a substantially U-shape downward with a rod-shaped member, and the left and right leg portions of the keyboard receiving member are inserted into support holes provided on the back side of the back plate of the FD placement plate. In addition, it is preferable that the keyboard is placed and stored in a state where the keyboard is stood sideways between the back plate of the FD placement plate and the keyboard receiving member.
[0014]
In a flat display mounting device in which a back plate of an FD mounting plate is supported so as to be able to be lifted and supported on the tip of an FD support arm that is fixed to a desk or the like and is rotatable in a horizontal plane, the FD mounting plate is located behind the back plate. By attaching the front guard and the keyboard receiving member and allowing the keyboard to be placed and stored between the front guard and the keyboard receiving member, the keyboard can be placed and stored more stably.
[0015]
Further, when the keyboard receiving member or the front guard is provided, the upper part thereof is bent in the horizontal direction, and a shelf board is attached to the bent range to form a mounting shelf, and small items such as a mouse are placed on the mounting shelf. The table surface can be used more widely by making it possible to keep children.
[0016]

Is the keyboard placement portion 28, 28, and the distance between the left and right leg portions 27, 27 is equal to the distance between the left and right support holes 23, 23 of the FD placement plate 17. The interval between the lower ends of the leg portions 27, 27 has elasticity that expands slightly wider than the interval between the support holes 23, 23, and the leg portions 27, 27 are connected to the left and right support holes 23, 23 and 24, When inserted into 24, the elastic state maintains a stable state.
[0021]
A portion of the horizontal flange portion 29 at the upper end of the keyboard receiving member 26 is slightly tilted rearward so that the keyboard 14 can be easily taken in and out.
[0022]
Therefore, when the left and right legs 27, 27 of the keyboard receiving member 26 are inserted into the support holes 23, 23 and 24, 24 of the FD placement plate 17, the lower ends thereof are connected to the lower surface portions 22c, 22c of the leg receiving members 22, 22. The insertion depth is determined by abutting and is attached in a stable state (shown in FIG. 5).
[0023]
As a result, there is a space between the back surface of the back plate 18 of the FD mounting plate 17 and the portion above the keyboard mounting portion 28 of the keyboard receiving member 26, and if the keyboard 14 is inserted sideways within this interval, The keyboard 14 is placed on the keyboard placing portions 28 and 28 of the keyboard receiving member 26, and the keyboard 14 can be stored behind the FD 3 as shown in FIG.
[0024]
FIGS. 6 to 10 show that the front guard 30 as shown in FIG. 7 can be attached in addition to the keyboard receiving member 26 in order to be able to correspond to the keyboard 14 having a wide depth. .
[0025]
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, support holes 31, 32, 31, 32 are formed in the step portion 21 of the back plate 18 of the FD placement plate 17, two on each side, and the upper surface portion 22 b of the leg receiving members 22, 22. 22b, two support holes 33, 34, 33, 34 are formed on one side on the same axis as the support holes 31, 32, and the inner left and right support holes 32, 34 and 32, 34 are formed on the inner side. As shown in FIG. 7, the left and right legs 35, 35 of the front guard 30 that is bent and formed in an inverted U-shape with a rod-like material similar to the keyboard receiving member 26 described above and has an expansive habit are inserted, The left and right leg portions 27 of the keyboard receiving member 26 are inserted into the support holes 31, 33 and 31, 33, respectively.
