[0046] Such as Figure 8 As shown, in the second embodiment of the present invention, a lever portion 10c is provided on the holding member 10 that holds the display panel 7 so as to be rotatable in the horizontal direction about the rotation axis O as the center, and the lever portion 10c is directed to the display panel 7. The opposite side (device back side) of the panel 7 protrudes.

[0047] The operating mechanism 20 is constituted by an operation unit 21 extending in the direction of the arrow AA′ of the device main body 3 . A link mechanism 40 is attached to the central portion of the operation portion 21 in the longitudinal direction, and the link mechanism 40 connects the operating mechanism 20 and the holding member 10 . The link mechanism 40 has a pair of gripping portions 41 that grip the rod portion 10 c in a rotatable manner, and moves in the arrow AA′ direction together with the action mechanism 20 . In the present embodiment, the clamping portion 41 is config...

no. 3 approach

[0054] In the third embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 11 As shown, the holding member 10 that holds the display panel 7 rotatably in the horizontal direction is provided with a plate-shaped portion 10d protruding to the side opposite to the display panel 7 (device rear side). An engaging recessed portion 10e is formed on the plate-like portion 10d away from the display panel 7 from the center toward the outside in the arrow AA′ direction.

[0055] The operating mechanism 20 is composed of an operation portion 21 and a protruding portion 22 . In the present embodiment, the protruding portion 22 protrudes downward from the center portion in the longitudinal direction of the operation portion 21 and is inserted and engaged with the engaging recessed portion 10 e of the holding member 10 .

[0056] When the user pushes (operates) the operating mechanism 20 from the second side surface 5 side (arrow A direction) to move the operating mechanism 20 in the arrow A' dire...

Abstract

An electronic apparatus has an apparatus main body, a display panel, and an operation mechanism. The apparatus main body has a first side surface, and second and third side surfaces arranged next to the first side surface so as to sandwich it. The second and third side surfaces are arranged opposite each other. The display panel is provided in the first side surface, and is swingable in the horizontal direction. The operation mechanism is provided in the apparatus main body, is exposed at least through the second side surface, and swings the display panel. By operating the operation mechanism from the second side surface side, the display panel swings to point toward the second side surface, and a third side surface-side part of the display penal protrudes outward beyond the first side surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to electronic equipment, and more particularly, to electronic equipment including a display panel provided on one side surface of a device main body. Background technique [0002] In the past, electronic devices in which the display panel is disposed on one side of the main body of the device have been known to the public. In such an electronic device, when the display panel is mounted on, for example, the front surface of the device main body, the user who is on the front side of the device main body can easily view the display panel. [0003] However, when the display panel is mounted on, for example, the front side of the device body, there is a problem that a user who is on either side of the device body needs to move to the front of the device body to view the display panel. Contents of the invention [0004] The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is ...
