[Figure 7] FIG. 10 is a schematic view showing the internal state of a control panel in a comparative example of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] In elevator systems, the space available for control panels is shrinking due to the minimization of elevator shaft dimensions and the thinning and miniaturization of mounted components. Furthermore, there is market demand for flatter designs that do not protrude from the side panels, making it difficult for the faceplate to accommodate the thickness of the components. Control panels are equipped with components such as in-car displays, push buttons, and various switches (hereinafter referred to as mounted components or control panel equipment), and cables must be pulled into the control panel. During on-site work to pull the cables into the control panel, the cables often interfere with the mounted components, preventing them from fitting inside the control panel.

[0011] In this embodiment, cables are pulled into the main case (operation panel box) of the control panel from the bottom and routed to the main case using a cable routing member (cable routing bar). The cable routing member (cable routing member or cable routing bar) is configured to partition the interior of the main case so that the cables connecting to the mounted components directly above are routed along the center of the main case in the width direction, and the cables connecting to the mounted components at the top of the control panel are routed along both sides in the width direction. In this case, to avoid interference between the mounted components and the cables, the cables are routed along both sides in the width direction of the main case, and the partition position by the cable routing member is positioned outside the width direction ends of the mounted components. It is recommended that the cable routing members be placed above and below the mounted components to more reliably avoid interference between the mounted components and the cables.

[0012] An embodiment of an elevator system according to the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In each drawing, the same components are designated by the same reference numerals, and repeated explanations will be omitted. In the following description, the up-down direction corresponds to the ascending and descending direction of the elevator car.

[0013] The configuration of an elevator system 100 will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a cross section of an elevator system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, as viewed from the side (horizontal direction).

[0014] The elevator device 100 includes a car 104 and a counterweight 105 that move up and down in a hoistway 101, a hoist 103 around which a main rope (not shown) is wound, a car guide rail 106 that guides the rise and fall of the car 104, and a counterweight guide rail 108 that guides the rise and fall of the counterweight 105. A car door 104a for passengers to get on and off is provided on the entrance / exit side of the car 104 (the landing hall 101b side).

[0015] The car 104 and counterweight 105 are suspended in a bucket-like manner by a main rope (not shown) inside a hoistway 101 provided in a building. The car guide rails 106 and the counterweight guide rails 108 are erected in the vertical direction along the inner wall 101a of the hoistway 101.

[0016] The elevator system 100 of this embodiment is a traction-type elevator system in which a hoist 103 frictionally drives a main rope, raising and lowering a car 104 along car guide rails 106, and raising and lowering a counterweight 105 along counterweight guide rails 108.

[0017] The elevator shaft 101 is formed in a building and is a space for raising and lowering the car 104 and the counterweight 105. A control panel 102 is disposed in the elevator shaft 101 to control the operation of the elevator device 100, including the raising and lowering of the car 104.

[0018] In this embodiment, the hoisting machine 103 is disposed at the top of the hoistway 101, but the position of the hoisting machine 103 is not limited to the top of the hoistway 101. Also, a machine room may be provided in which the hoisting machine 103 and the control panel 102 are disposed.

[0019] In this embodiment, the elevator system 100 is of the traction type, but the present invention can also be applied to elevator systems other than the traction type, such as hydraulic elevator systems.

[0020] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the interior of the car 104 as viewed from the inside of the car 104 toward the entrance / exit side.

[0021] Cage doors 104a (104aR, 104aL) for passengers getting on and off are provided on the entrance / exit side of the car 104. In this embodiment, the car doors 104a are made up of two car doors 104aR, 104aL that open to the left and right when viewed from inside the car 104. The configuration of the car doors 104a is not limited to the configuration described in this embodiment, and car doors with other configurations can also be used.

[0022] An operation panel 2 is disposed on a side plate 104c of the car 104. The operation panel 2 is disposed so as to protrude from the side plate 104c to the outside of the car 104. In this embodiment, the operation panel 2 is disposed on the side plate 104c on which the car doors 104aR, 104aL are provided. Alternatively, a second operation panel may be disposed on a side plate other than the side plate 104c on which the car doors 104aR, 104aL are provided. The configuration of the operation panel 2, which will be described later, can be similarly applied to the second operation panel.

[0023] FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the interior of the car 104 as viewed from the inside toward the entrance / exit side.

[0024] An operation panel 2 is disposed on a side plate (front surface) 104c on the entrance / exit side of the car 104. Interior wall members and the like are provided on the side plate 104c as appropriate, but in this embodiment, the members that constitute the peripheral wall of the car 104, including the interior wall members and the like, will be collectively referred to as the side plate.

[0025] In this embodiment, a configuration in which the operation panel 2 is disposed on the right side of the car doors 104aR, 104aL is illustrated, but this configuration is not limited to this, and the operation panel 2 may be disposed on the left side of the car doors 104aR, 104aL. Alternatively, the operation panel 2 may be disposed on both the left and right sides of the car doors 104aR, 104aL.

[0026] Fig. 4 is a plan view showing the outline of the appearance of the control panel 2 arranged in the car 104. In Fig. 4, (a) shows a front view, and (b) shows a side view. The side view (b) shows a see-through view of the liquid crystal display 21, switch unit 25, and printed circuit board 25 inside through the outer shell of the control panel 2.

[0027] The operation panel 2 includes a main body case 20a that houses mounted components, and a face plate 20b that covers the main body case 20a. The face plate 20b forms a lid for the main body case 20a. The operation panel 2 is provided with a liquid crystal display 21, operation buttons 22 to 24, a switch section 25, and a printed circuit board 26. In the following description, the switch section 25 may be referred to as the first mounted component, the printed circuit board 26 as the second mounted component, and the liquid crystal display 21 as the third mounted component.

[0028] The liquid crystal display 21 is housed inside the operation panel 2 (main body case 2a) so that the liquid crystal display unit 21a is exposed on the surface of the face plate 20b, and displays floors and various other information. The liquid crystal display 21 may be referred to as a third mounted component in the following description.

[0029] The operation buttons 22 to 24 are configured as contact type, contactless type, or a combination of contact and contactless type operation buttons, and include an emergency call button 22, a destination floor button 23, and a door open / close button 24. That is, the elevator device 100 is provided with an operation panel 2 that specifies the destination floor of the car 104.

[0030] The switch unit 25 includes a switch for switching between a maintenance mode and an operation mode, and is housed inside the operation panel 2 (main body case 2a) and covered with a hooked cover 25a. The switch unit 25 may be referred to as a first mounted component.

[0031] The printed circuit board 26 includes an electric circuit and an electronic circuit, and is housed inside the operation panel 2 (main body case 2a). The printed circuit board 26 may be referred to as a second mounting component in the following description.

[0032] In this embodiment, the operation panel 2 has a rectangular shape in a plan view seen from the direction opposite the face plate 20b, with a dimension L in the up-down direction (vertical direction) PD being greater than a dimension (width dimension) W in the width direction WD, and has a longitudinal direction in the up-down direction PD. The mounted components 21, 26, 22 to 24, and 25 of the operation panel 2 are arranged in the up-down direction PD in the following order from the upper end of the operation panel 2, i.e., the upper end 20a1 side of the main body case 20a: liquid crystal display 21, printed circuit board 26, operation buttons 22 to 24, and switch unit 25. Of the mounted components 21, 26, and 25, switch unit 25 is arranged closest to the lower end 20a2 of the operation panel 2.

[0033] The operation panel 2 has a small dimension (thickness dimension) T in the thickness direction TD. Specifically, the thickness dimension T is smaller than the width dimension W. Therefore, although a relatively large gap g26 can be secured between the printed circuit board 26 and the rear surface portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a, the gap g25 formed between the switch unit 25 and the rear surface portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a is small. That is, the gap g25 between the switch unit 25 and the rear surface portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a is smaller than the gap g26 formed between the printed circuit board 26 and the rear surface portion 20a5. In other words, the gap g26 between the printed circuit board 26 and the rear surface portion 20a1 of the main body case 20a is larger than the gap g25 formed between the switch unit 25 and the rear surface portion 20a5.

[0034] The thickness dimensions of the components mounted on the operation panel 2 vary, and the thickness dimension T of the operation panel 2 is set to match the component with the largest thickness so that the gap formed between this component and the rear part 20a5 of the main body case 20a is made as small as possible. This is to meet the demand for a thinner operation panel 2 due to the influence of minimizing the dimensions of the elevator shaft, as mentioned above.

[0035] Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram showing the internal state of the control panel 2. Fig. 5 shows the state when the face plate 20b is removed and viewed from the side where the face plate 20b would normally be located. Fig. 5(b) shows the BB cross section of Fig. 5(a).

[0036] As described above, the operation panel 2 has a rectangular shape when viewed from the direction opposite the faceplate 20b, and the main body case 20a and the faceplate 20b also have a rectangular shape when viewed from the direction opposite the faceplate 20b, similar to the operation panel 2. Therefore, the main body case 20a has an upper end 20a1, a lower end 20a2, a right side end (right end) 20a3, and a left side end (left end) 20a4.

[0037] Side walls 20a1a, 20a3a, and 20a4a are provided at each of the ends 20a1, 20a3, and 20a4 except for the bottom end 20a2. The side walls 20a1a, 20a3a, and 20a4a extend from the periphery of the rear surface (rear face) of the main body case 20a, which faces the faceplate 20b, toward the faceplate 20b, and the interior of the main body case 20a is surrounded by the side walls 20a1a, 20a3a, and 20a4a.

[0038] The operation panel 2 has a plurality of mounted components 21, 25, 26 arranged side by side in the vertical direction, a plurality of sets of cables 27, 28, 29 that are drawn into the inside of the operation panel 2 from one end of the operation panel 2 in the vertical direction and are electrically connected to the plurality of mounted components 21, 25, 26, and a first cable installation member 201A. In this embodiment, each of the plurality of sets of cables 27, 28, 29 is made up of two cables.

[0039] The mounted components 21, 26, and 25 of the operation panel 2 are arranged in the following order from the upper end 20a1 side of the main body case 20a: the liquid crystal display 21, the printed circuit board 26, and the switch section 25. Fig. 5 shows a state in which the liquid crystal display 21, the printed circuit board 26, and the switch section 25 are housed in the main body case 20a, but in this case, the printed circuit board 26 and the switch section 25 do not need to be fixed directly to the main body case 20a, and may be fixed to the main body case 20a via the face plate 20b.

[0040] Cables 27, 28, and 29, which are electrical wiring members, are electrically connected to the liquid crystal display 21, the printed circuit board 26, and the switch unit 25. The cables 27, 28, and 29 are drawn into the inside of the operation panel 2, i.e., from the lower end 20a2 side of the main body case 20a. Therefore, a drawing section for the cables 27, 28, and 29, indicated by a dashed line 20a6, is formed at the lower end 20a2 of the main body case 20a. Therefore, no side wall section is provided at the lower end 20a2, but by providing through holes in the side wall section through which the cables 27, 28, and 29 pass, a side wall section can also be provided at the lower end 20a2.

[0041] Cables 27, 28, and 29 are arranged in main body case 20a using cable routing members (also referred to as cable wiring members or cable wiring bars) 201. That is, cables 27, 28, and 29 are wired into main body case 20a using cable routing members 201. In the following description, cable 27 may be referred to as a first cable, cable 28 as a second cable, and cable 29 as a third cable.

[0042] The cable routing member (first cable routing member) 201A is arranged between the lead-in portion 20a6 of the multiple sets of cables 27, 28, 29 in the operation panel 2 and the mounting component (first mounting component) 25 that is arranged closest to the lead-in portion 20a6 among the multiple mounting components 21, 26, 25.

[0043] The cable routing member 201A is disposed inside the main body case 20a so as to separate the wiring positions of the cables 27, 28, and 29. That is, the cable routing member 201A separates the inside of the main body case 20a into wiring spaces (wiring compartments) through which the cables 27, 28, and 29 pass, and holds the cables 27, 28, and 29 in each wiring space.

[0044] The cable (first cable) 27 is an electrical wiring connected to the switch unit 25 provided directly above the lead-in portions 20a6 of the cables 27, 28, and 29, and is routed along the width direction WD of the operation panel 2, i.e., the center portion (widthwise center portion) of the main body case 20a in the width direction of the main body case 20a, and connected to the switch unit 25. The cable arrangement member 201A forms a wiring space (first wiring space) S1 between itself and the back portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a, and the cable (first cable) 27 is connected to the switch unit (first mounted component) 25 through this wiring space (first wiring space) S1.

[0045] Cables 28, 29 are electrical wiring connected to printed circuit board 26 or LCD display 21 arranged above switch unit 25, and extend upward along both sides of switch unit 25. Width W25 of switch unit 25 is sufficiently smaller than width W20a of main body case 20a, and gaps (spaces) of width W25RL are formed between both side portions 25R, 25L of switch unit 25 and both side wall portions 20a3a, 20a4a of main body case 20a. Cables 28, 29 are arranged on both sides of switch unit 25, using these gaps as wiring spaces (second wiring space and third wiring space).

[0046] The cable (second cable) 28 passes on the right side (right side) of the switch unit 25, is wired upward, and is connected to the printed circuit board 26 arranged above the switch unit 25. In this case, the cable (second cable) 28 is connected to the printed circuit board (second mounted component) 26 through the wiring space (second wiring space) S2.

[0047] The cable (third cable) 29 passes on the left side (left side) of the switch unit 25 and is wired upward, and is connected to the liquid crystal display 21 arranged above the printed circuit board 26. In this case, the cable (third cable) 29 is connected to the liquid crystal display (third mounted component) 21 through the wiring space (third wiring space) S3.

[0048] The cable routing member 201A separates the wiring spaces of the first cable 27 and the second cable 28 so that the first wiring space S1 is located in the widthwise center of the main body case 20a and the second wiring space S2 is located at the widthwise end (right end) of the main body case 20a with respect to the first wiring space S1. The cable routing member 201A also separates the wiring spaces of the first cable 27 and the third cable 29 so that the first wiring space S1 is located in the widthwise center of the main body case 20a and the third wiring space S3 is located at the widthwise end (left end) of the main body case 20a with respect to the first wiring space S1.

[0049] In this embodiment, the cable routing member 201A forms a wiring space (second wiring space) S2 between itself and the side wall 20a3a of the main body case 20a, and the cable 28 is routed in this wiring space S2. The cable routing member 201A forms a wiring space (third wiring space) S3 between itself and the side wall 20a4a of the main body case 20a, and the cable 29 is routed in this wiring space S3.

[0050] The cables 28 and 29 may be wired so that the cable 28 is connected to the liquid crystal display 21 and the cable 29 is connected to the printed circuit board 26. Alternatively, the positions of the cables 28 and 29 may be reversed so that the cable 28 passes on the left side (left side) of the switch unit 25 and the cable 29 passes on the right side (right side) of the switch unit 25.

[0051] Although the width dimension W26 of the printed circuit board 26 is smaller than the width dimension W20a of the main body case 20a, the difference between the width dimension W26 and the width dimension W20a is not so large, and the size of the width dimension W26RL of the gap (space) formed between the side portions 26R, 26L of the printed circuit board 26 and the side wall portions 20a3a, 20a4a of the main body case 20a is small enough to route the cable 29. In this case, the cable 29 is extended to the liquid crystal display 21 through the gap g26 (see FIG. 4) formed between the printed circuit board 26 and the back portion 20a5 and connected to the liquid crystal display 21.

[0052] As described above, cable routing member 201A divides the interior of main body case 20a to separate wiring space S1 from wiring spaces S2 and S3. In particular, cable routing member 201A is provided directly above lead-in portion 20a6 of cables 27, 28, and 29, and is arranged between lead-in portion 20a6 and switch unit 25. Cable routing member 201A guides cables 28 and 29, which are led in from lead-in portion 20a6, to the side of switch unit 25, thereby suppressing interference between cables 28 and 29 and switch unit 25.

[0053] For this reason, the width W201a of the portion 201a (see FIG. 6) of the cable routing member 201A that forms the wiring space S1 is set to be equal to or larger than the width W25 of the switch section 25.

[0054] In addition to being disposed between the lead-in portion 20a6 and the switch unit 25, the cable routing member 201 may also be disposed on the opposite side of the switch unit 25 from the lead-in portion 20a6. In this case, the cable routing member 201 is provided with a cable routing member (second cable routing member) 201B having a wiring space (first wiring space) S1, a wiring space (second wiring space) S2, and a wiring space (third wiring space) S3, and the cable routing member 201B is disposed on the opposite side of the switch unit (first mounted component) 25 from the lead-in portion 20a6. By making the second cable routing member 201B the same shape as the cable routing member (first cable routing member) 201A disposed between the lead-in portion 20a6 and the switch unit 25, the manufacturing cost of the second cable routing member can be kept low.

[0055] In this embodiment, two cable routing members 201B and 201C are disposed between the switch unit 25 and the printed circuit board 26, and a plurality of (a total of three in this embodiment) cable routing members 201 are provided. This makes it possible to more reliably avoid interference between the cables 28 and 29 and the mounted components (in this embodiment, the switch unit 25).

[0056] Fig. 6 is a three-view diagram of the cable fixing member 201 used inside the operation panel 2. In the three-view diagram of Fig. 6, (a) shows a front view seen from a direction perpendicular to the face plate 20b, (b) shows a left side view, and (c) shows a bottom view.

[0057] The cable routing member 201 has a longitudinal direction LD that is aligned with the width direction WD of the operation panel 2, that is, the width direction of the main body case 20a.

[0058] In this embodiment, the multiple cable routing members 201A, 201B, and 201C have the same shape, and when there is no need to distinguish between the multiple cable routing members 201A, 201B, and 201C, they will be described as "cable routing member 201."

[0059] The cable routing member 201 includes a fixed portion 201b fixed to a rear surface portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a that faces the faceplate 20b, and upright portions 201c1 and 201c2 that stand upright from the fixed portion 201b toward the faceplate 20b. The upright portion 201c1 separates the first wiring space S1 from the second wiring space S2 in the width direction of the main body case 20a. The upright portion 201c2 separates the first wiring space S1 from the third wiring space S3 in the width direction of the main body case 20a.

[0060] A pair of fixing portions 201b are provided at both ends of the cable routing member 201 in the longitudinal direction LD, and serve to fix the cable routing member 201 to the rear surface 20a5 of the main body case 20a. For this purpose, the fixing portions 201b have screw insertion holes 201d. The fixing portions 201b are also provided parallel to the rear surface 20a5 of the main body case 20a.

[0061] The standing portions 201c1 and 201c2 are provided on the inside (closer to the center) of the fixed portion 201b in the longitudinal direction LD. The standing portions 201c and 201c2 stand upright from an end portion of the fixed portion 201b that is located on the inside (closer to the center) of the cable routing member 201 in the longitudinal direction LD. The standing portions 201c1 and 201c2 are provided on each of the pair of fixed portions 201b, and the cable routing member 201 has a pair of standing portions 201c1 and 201c2. The standing portions 201c1 and 201c2 stand upright from the rear surface portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a toward the faceplate 20b.

[0062] Hereinafter, the standing portion 201c1 may be referred to as the first standing portion, and the standing portion 201c2 may be referred to as the second standing portion. The second installation space S2 is formed between the first standing portion 201c1 and one side wall portion 20a3a in the width direction WD of the main body case 20a. The third installation space S3 is formed between the second standing portion 201c2 and the other side wall portion 20a4a in the width direction WD of the main body case 20a.

[0063] In this embodiment, the multiple mounted components 21, 26, and 25 include a third mounted component (liquid crystal display) 21 arranged on the opposite side of the lead-in portion 20a6 with respect to the second mounted component (printed circuit board) 26. The multiple sets of cables 27, 28, and 29 include a third cable 29 connected to the third mounted component. The third cable 29 is connected to the third mounted component 21 through the third wiring space S3. The cable routing member 201 includes a first standing portion 201c1 and a second standing portion 201c2 arranged side by side in the width direction WD of the main body case 20a as standing portions. The first standing portion 201c1 separates the first wiring space S1 from the second wiring space S2. The second standing portion 201c2 separates the first wiring space S1 from the third wiring space S3 on the opposite side of the first wiring space from the second wiring space S2.

[0064] The ends (standing tips) of the standing portions 201c1 and 201c2 opposite to the fixed portion 201b are connected to the central portion 201a. The central portion 201a constitutes a connection portion (coupling portion) that connects the pair of standing portions 201c1 and 201c2. The central portion 201a is provided spaced apart from the rear portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a.

[0065] As a result, the cable routing member 201 has a connection portion 201a that connects the first standing portion 201c1 and the second standing portion 201c2 on the side opposite to the fixed portion 201b. The connection portion 201a is located closer to the center in the width direction of the main body case 20a than the fixed portion 201b. The first routing space S1 is formed between the connection portion 201a and the rear portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a. In this embodiment, the connection portion 201a is arranged parallel to the rear portion 20a5 of the main body case 20a.

[0066] The cable routing member 201 forms a wiring space S1 for the cable 27 inside the pair of standing portions 201c1, 201c2 in the longitudinal direction LD, and forms a wiring space S2 for the cable 28 and a wiring space S3 for the cable 29 outside the pair of standing portions 201c1, 201c2. The wiring spaces S2, S3 are formed separately at both end portions of the cable routing member 201, and a pair of wiring spaces S2, S3 are provided. The cables 28, 29 are routed by being distributed between the pair of wiring spaces S2, S3.

[0067] The cable routing member 201 is provided to suppress interference between the cables 28 and 29 and the mounted component (the switch unit 25 in this embodiment). To this end, the cable routing member 201 guides the second cable 28 to one side 25R of the first mounted component (switch unit) 25 at the first standing portion 201c1, and guides the third cable 29 to the other side 25L of the first mounted component 25 at the second standing portion 201c2.

[0068] In this case, the multiple mounted components 21, 26, 25 include a first mounted component (switch unit) 25 arranged closest to the lead-in portion 20a6 of the multiple sets of cables 27, 28, 29 in the operation panel 2, and a second mounted component (printed circuit board) 26 arranged on the opposite side of the first mounted component 25 from the lead-in portion 20a6 side. The multiple sets of cables include a first cable 27 connected to the first mounted component 25 and a second cable 28 connected to the second mounted component 26. The cable routing member 201 is arranged between the lead-in portion 20a6 and the first mounted component 25, and guides the second cable 28 laterally of the first mounted component 25 on the lead-in portion 20a6 side of the first mounted component 25.

[0069] The first upright portion 201c1 is preferably arranged in the width direction of the main body case 20a at the same position as one of the side end portions 25R, 25L of the first mounting component 25 in the width direction, or at a position closer to one side wall portion 20a3a of the main body case 20a than the one side end portion 25R. The second upright portion 201c2 is preferably arranged in the width direction of the main body case 20a at the same position as the other side end portion 25L of the both side end portions 25R, 25L of the first mounting component 25 in the width direction, or at a position closer to the other side wall portion 20a4a of the main body case 20a than the other side end portion 25L.

[0070] The erected portions 201c1, 201c2 function as regulating portions that restrict the movement of the cables 28, 29 toward the center in the width direction WD inside the main body case 20a, and also function as regulating portions that restrict the movement of the cable 27 toward the end in the width direction WD.

[0071] If the occurrence of interference can be suppressed, the two sets of cables 28, 29 may be arranged in one of the pair of wiring spaces S2, S3, in which case one of the pair of wiring spaces S2, S3 becomes unnecessary.

[0072] The cable routing member 201 has a pair of fixing portions 201b at both ends thereof, which increases the fixing strength to the rear surface 20a5 of the main body case 20a and makes it easier to fix the cable routing member 201 to the rear surface 20a5 of the main body case 20a. In this case, it is preferable to effectively use the pair of fixing portions 201b to provide a pair of wiring spaces S2, S3 and distribute the cables 28, 29 between the pair of wiring spaces S2, S3. This makes it possible to effectively use the space within the main body case 20a and reduce the size of the operation panel 2.

[0073] In this embodiment, the cable routing member 201 has a central portion 201a connecting the pair of standing portions 201c, but the purpose of suppressing interference between the cables 28 and 29 and the mounted components can be achieved even if the pair of standing portions 201c1 and 201c2 are not connected at the central portion 201a. Therefore, the cable routing member 201 can also be configured with one fixed portion 201b and one standing portion 201c, without the central portion 201a. In this case, the pair of standing portions 201c1 and 201c2 are provided separately on the pair of cable routing members 201.

[0074] In the configuration in which a pair of standing portions 201c1, 201c2 are connected at the central portion 201a as in this embodiment, the cable 27 arranged in the wiring space S1 can be held by the central portion 201a, thereby improving the workability of the wiring work.

[0075] The interference between the cables 28, 29 and the mounted components (switch unit 25 in this embodiment) will be described with reference to Fig. 7. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram showing the internal state of the operation panel 2 in a comparative example to the present invention. Fig. 7(b) illustrates the BB cross section of Fig. 7(a).

[0076] If the cables 27, 28, 29 are not guided to the side of the switch unit 25 by the cable routing member 202 arranged between the lead-in portion 20a6 and the switch unit 25, the cables 28, 29 drawn in from the lead-in portion 20a6 will interfere with the switch unit 25. In this case, during the on-site work of drawing the cables 27, 28, 29 into the operation panel 2, an event may occur in which the cables 27, 28, 29 and the mounted components (in this example, the switch unit 25) do not fit inside the operation panel 2, and the work may take a long time.

[0077] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments and includes various modifications. For example, the above-described embodiments have been described in detail to clearly explain the present invention, and the present invention is not necessarily limited to those including all of the configurations. Furthermore, it is possible to replace part of the configuration of the embodiments with other configurations. Furthermore, it is possible to add, delete, or replace part of the configuration of the embodiments with other configurations. [Explanation of symbols]
