Embodiment Construction

[0039] The rotary hinge mechanism and imaging device to which the present invention is applied will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] An imaging device to which the present invention is applied is, for example, shown in figure 1 and figure 2 A camera-integrated digital video tape recorder (hereinafter referred to as a digital video camera) 1. The digital video camera 1 has a main body 2, a panel part (panel part) 3 that is openably and closably mounted on one side of the main body 2, and a panel part 3 that is rotatably mounted on the opposite side of the main body 2 from the panel part 3. The handle part 4 on the side.

[0041] The main body part 2 has an imaging unit for capturing an image of a subject, and a lens part 5 protruding from the front surface of the main body part 2 protrudes an imaging lens 5 a to the outside. In addition, a strobe light emitting part 6 for emitting a strobe light at night or the like is prot...

Abstract

A turning hinge mechanism for turnable support between a video camera main body part (2) and a grip part (4). The mechanism is provided with a fixing board (31) mounted on either of the main body part or the grip part, and rotating boards (32) and (33) mounted on the other of the main body part and the grip part, and a spindle (34) for turnably supporting these rotating boards on the fixing board. On the fixing board and each rotating board, first and second opening parts (40) and (54) are formed to penetrate a harness (66) which turns between the main body part and the grip part. The first and the second opening parts are formed to overlap at least partly within an angle range at which the grip part turns around the main body part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a rotary hinge mechanism rotatably supported between a main body part and a rotary part, and an imaging device in which a handle part is rotatably attached to the main body part by such a rotary hinge mechanism. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2004-016276 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2004-016279 filed in Japan on January 23, 2004, and these applications are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] In imaging devices such as digital still cameras and digital video cameras, it is possible to reduce the size of the entire device by integrating all functions into the main body of the device. In the imaging device, the device itself is held during shooting, so it is difficult to hold the shape of some devices, and it is difficult to take pictures at a stable angle for certain postures and angles during shooting. [0004] Therefore, a proposal h...
