Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus storage case suitably used in an office or the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Along with the recent rapid progress in OA, each office occupies one information processing device such as a personal computer. In particular, the recent remarkable technological advancement has led to significant performance improvements and dramatic downsizing of information processing devices. Currently, a variety of functions such as multimedia support functions are available in the notebook type as well as the desktop type. The information processing apparatus can be used normally.
[0003]
On the other hand, as an office form in recent years, an increasing number of companies have introduced a small office system or a home office system. For example, in a small office, a non-territorial office system in which each person does not limit his / her seat is often adopted, and articles such as information processing apparatuses used by each person cannot be permanently installed on the desk. This is also true for home offices. Further, even in the center office, for example, in the case of occupations such as sales positions where there are many outside employees, there are cases in which work is performed using their own information processing devices on a common desk as needed without limiting their own seats. Also in this case, when the work is not performed, it is necessary to retreat the information processing apparatus to an appropriate place and open the desk for other users. Thus, in a situation where an information processing device cannot be permanently installed at a certain location, a notebook type that is much easier to use than a desktop type is used in that it is much easier to move.
[0004]
However, when moving a notebook-type information processing device, the accessories such as manuals, writing instruments, and various stationery must be moved individually, in addition to peripheral accessories such as an AC adapter, a mouse, and a numeric keypad. Not only is the moving operation complicated, but there is also a risk that equipment and the like may be lost.
[0005]
Therefore, in recent years, in an office, an information processing apparatus and peripheral accessories, fixtures, etc. can be moved together and moved together and stored in a storage box or other storage furniture as a file box. You may be using a storage case. As a conventional storage case for an information processing apparatus, there is a case-type hard case type made of a relatively strong resin material such as polypropylene.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, since this is a hard case type, the outer dimensions of the case body are always constant and do not change from the production process and distribution to use by the user.
[0007]
For this reason, there is a problem that a lot of storage space is taken especially at the time of distribution and the distribution cost is increased, and there is a problem that a predetermined storage space is required even when not in use and a useless space is generated in the office.
[0008]
In addition, in order to prevent peripheral accessories and fixtures from coming into contact with each other and damaging the information processing device or scattering them into the storage space when moving, conventionally, the information processing device and peripheral accessories, etc. A fixed storage partition for partitioning the space for storing the information is provided in the case body, or the information processing apparatus is stored in the inner case or the like.
[0009]
However, since the shape and size of the information processing device varies depending on the model, the size of the storage space for the information processing device is determined in advance if it is a fixed storage partition. There is a possibility that a useless space may be generated in the space, the information processing apparatus may not be properly accommodated, and rattling may occur during movement.
[0010]
Furthermore, when the information processing apparatus is frequently moved in the storage case, it is necessary to protect the information processing apparatus from impacts or the like, but the conventional hard case type does not have a buffering property. The information processing apparatus is housed in an inner case that is formed from a material having a buffering property or that has an inner surface provided with a buffering material or the like.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to eliminate the above-described problems, the present invention is configured such that the case body is made of a flexible material and can be folded in the thickness direction, and the shape retention property in the thickness direction is selectively applied to the case body. By providing the shape-retaining base and the auxiliary prosthesis part, it is assumed that the use state and the folded state can be taken according to the situation. Furthermore, a storage partition that can change the partition position according to the thickness dimension or width dimension of the information processing apparatus is provided, and a storage space for the information processing apparatus that matches the size of each information processing apparatus is formed in the case body. I am doing so.
[0012]

In this case, it is desirable that the auxiliary shape retaining portion includes a cushion material.
[0016]
As a specific embodiment, the shape retaining base may be polymerized on the bottom wall of the case body in use.
[0017]
Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment of the storage partition, the storage partition is formed with a deformable region that can be flexibly deformed. In contrast, there may be mentioned those that can take a standing position that stands vertically with respect to the shape-retaining base and can change the standing position.
[0018]
