Benefits of technology

[0009] It is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic device support mechanism which is flexibly compatible with an installation site, and moreover, which is capable of maintaining a minimum thickness with reasonable cost; and an integrated electronic device comprising the support mechanism.

Problems solved by technology

In addition, the above telephone set may be mounted on a wall because of a limited installation space.
In the meantime, in the case of utilizing a lower case of the above telephone set main body, there is a case in which a tilt stand is lost because it is removed from the telephone set main body.
In addition, there is a need for work of, for example, removing a tightening screw of the lower case, and an installation work is not easy.
In addition, the use of another member for wall hanging causes higher cost, and increases thickness of the entirety including the telephone set main body and tilt stand.

first embodiment

[0021]FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a top surface of a telephone set according to a first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a view of a telephone set when it is seen from a side face thereof, the view understandably showing a configuration of a telephone set support mechanism.

[0022] In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a telephone set main body (to be referred to as a main body hereinafter). A display 10 using a LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or the like is allocated on an operating surface 1a which is a top surface of the main body 1. Further, a dial key 11, a function key 12, auto dial keys (AD1 to AD10) 13, and flexible keys (FK1 to FK14) 14 are arranged at the downward side of this display 10. A hand set 15 incorporating a microphone and a speaker is allocated at the left side of the display 10.

[0023] In addition, the main body 1 has a structure of a lower surface portion of this main body, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. That is, a lower case 1b having a lower surface...

second embodiment

[0031] According to a second embodiment of the present invention, a placement angle of a main body 1 can be variably set.

[0032]FIGS. 4 and 5 are perspective views showing a configuration of essential portions of a tilt stand according to the second embodiment.

[0033] In FIGS. 4 and 5, the main body 1 provides a tilt arm 3 which configures a variable angle adjusting mechanism at a substantially center portion of the. This main body 1 can be arbitrarily turned in a vertical direction with respect to a tilt base 2 by the tilt arm 3.

[0034] At one end, the tilt arm 3 is turnably mounted in a direction along under surface portions 1b1, 1b2 by means of an axis 16 on a substantial center of a lower case 1b of the main body 1. Further, at the tilt base 2, as shown in FIG. 5, a guide groove 23 (illustrated at only the left side in FIG. 5) is formed in order to guide the tilt arm 3 such that it can be horizontally reciprocated on the left and right side walls. This guide groove 23 has an ope...

Abstract

A support mechanism for supporting an electronic device includes a base which supports at least the first under surface and the second under surface of the electronic device, a first engaging member to engage with the first under surface in a state in which the electronic device is supported on the base during the first state, and engage with the second under surface in a state in which the electronic device is supported on the base during the second state, in the base, and a second engaging member to engage with the second under surface in a state in which the electronic device is supported on the base during the first state, and engage with the second under surface in a state in which the electronic device is supported on the base during the second state, in the base.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority from prior Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-372990, filed Oct. 31, 2003, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates to an electronic device support mechanism for placing at a desired angle an electronic device such as a telephone set capable of selectively establishing, for example, a tabletop placement state and a wall hanging state, and an integrated electronic device comprising the support mechanism. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] In general, in a telephone set, a display, a speaker, a microphone, a keypad and the like are allocated on an operating surface which is a top surface of a telephone set. A telephone set of this type has an advantage that high operability and visibility can be secured by setting a telephone set main bo...
