Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention is a remote control transmitter (hereinafter referred to as a remote control) for televisions, videos, air conditioners, etc.
The present invention relates to a device used for storing or projecting a device into a device body, and more specifically, relates to a storage device that can perform deceleration movement during the projecting process.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a device as shown in FIG. 2 has been devised as a device used for storing a remote control in a device body or protruding from the device body.
That is, a movable body 4 having an elastic arm 5 extending forward and capable of holding a remote control 6 is provided at the rear of the storage case consisting of the lid 1 and the case body 2 in the opposite direction to the remote control insertion opening 3. It is equipped with a means for advancing by repulsive force and a means for stopping at the forward and backward positions, respectively.

By the way, in recent years, due to the diversification of hobbies, there has been a desire for a damper mechanism to be added to this storage device so that deceleration movement can be performed during the extending process. Conventionally, storage devices and damper devices have existed as separate parts, and when a damper mechanism is required, it has been common to attach a separate damper device to a semi-finished storage device from the outside by screwing, etc. .

However, in this case, the disadvantage is that it becomes expensive because the number of parts increases and assembly takes time.

Therefore, as a solution to complete a storage device with a damper mechanism with a small number of parts, we developed a system that integrated the storage device and damper device.
The one disclosed in Publication No. 78669 has been devised.
As shown in FIG. 3, a cylinder 8 is integrally provided in the rear part of a fixed case 7 in the longitudinal direction, and a piston 1 is provided in the rear part of a movable case 9 in the longitudinal direction.
0 was provided integrally. However, since this device has a damper device installed in the longitudinal direction at the rear of the storage device, the length that protrudes toward the rear becomes large, which obstructs the placement of parts around the storage device. There were times when we had to make design changes such as changing the layout of the equipment.

Therefore, there is a storage device that makes it possible to include a damper mechanism without increasing the longitudinal dimension of the storage device. In other words, this is the idea disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 140471/1983, which incorporates a damper device inside the upper part of the storage device. As shown in FIG.
In this case, the cylinder 12 of the damper device was fixed in the longitudinal direction, and the locking part 14 of the piston 13 was held between the inner side plate 16 and the inner side plate 17 of the lid 15. is built into the inside of the upper part of the storage device in the longitudinal direction, so the surface area occupied by the storage device remains the same as before, but since the damper device is a separate component, the number of parts increases and it takes more time to assemble. It had the disadvantage of being expensive and expensive.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) The invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of conventional storage devices equipped with a damper mechanism, and even if a damper mechanism is added, the number of parts does not increase that much. In addition to reducing the cost increase by eliminating the hassle of assembly, we also minimized the possibility that the protrusion caused by adding the damper device would become an obstacle when trying to place parts around the storage device. That's what I tried to do.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention employs the following configuration to achieve its purpose.

That is, in a storage device that includes a movable body for moving the remote control inside a storage case consisting of a lid and a case body, a means for moving the movable body forward by repulsive force, and a means for stopping the movable body at forward and backward positions, respectively. A damper device consisting of a cylinder and a piston is arranged inside the upper part of the storage device, the cylinder is provided integrally along the longitudinal direction of the lid, the piston is provided integrally with the movable body along the longitudinal direction of the storage case, and the lid and the piston are integrally provided along the longitudinal direction of the storage case. The storage device is provided with a guide means for sliding the lid onto the case body in the longitudinal direction.

(Function) Since the present invention has the above configuration, the cylinder is integrally provided along the longitudinal direction of the lid, the piston is integrally provided on the movable body along the longitudinal direction of the storage case, and the lid and the case are integrally provided. The main body can be assembled by sliding the lid onto the case body in the longitudinal direction, which prevents an increase in the number of parts due to the addition of a damper mechanism.Also, when assembling the storage device, it is possible to assemble the moving object. The damper device can be assembled at the same time by sliding the lid onto the built-in case body.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a partially exploded perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention. Heart-shaped cam groove 18 on the lid 1 and inside
At the rear of the storage case opposite to the remote control insertion slot 3, the case body 2 is
between the moving body 4 that stops at forward and backward positions, respectively, along guide holes 19 provided in the moving body 4, and a spring seat (not shown) provided on the moving body 4 and another spring seat 20 provided on the case body 2. Compression spring 21 fitted in
and a lever 22 that slides along the cam groove 18 of the case body 2 that is attached to a mounting hole (not shown) provided in the moving body 4. A damper mechanism consisting of a combination of a cylinder 23 provided integrally and a piston 24 provided integrally toward the front of the movable body 4 is added. The closed end 25 of the cylinder 23 is provided with an air hole 26 that takes in and exhausts air. An adjustment screw 27 is screwed into the air hole 26, forming a simple speed adjustment mechanism. Near the insertion end of the piston 24, an O-ring 28 that maintains airtightness with the cylinder 23 is fitted into a circumferential groove 29. The remote control 6 is previously provided with a pair of parallel sliding grooves 31 each having a locking recess 30 on both sides in the longitudinal direction. A pair of elastic arms 5 facing both sides of the remote control 6 are provided on the movable body 4 so as to be able to bend around their bases as fulcrums. Elastic arm 5 for a distance commensurate with the length between
The locking recess 3 of the remote control 6 is spaced apart from the base of the
A locking protrusion 32 that engages with the locking projection 32 is provided. The lid 1 is provided with two pairs of slide members 34 each having a linear groove 33 inside on both sides in the length direction. At the front of the lid 1, there is a stopper piece 3 that engages with an engagement stage 40 provided on the inner surface of the case body 2, which will be described later.
5, and an elastic locking piece 38 having a cutout 36 and a locking claw 37 at the tip is provided at the rear. The case body 2 is provided with guide rails 39 on both sides in the longitudinal direction into which the grooves 33 of the slide member 34 fit, an engagement stage 40 for engaging the stopper piece 35 in the longitudinal direction of the front part, and an engagement stage 40 for engaging the stopper piece 35 in the longitudinal direction of the front part. A recess 41 is provided in which the locking claw 37 of the elastic locking piece 38 engages.

When assembling the embodiment of the present invention, first insert the O-ring 28 into the circumferential groove 29 of the piston 24, and then assemble the moving body 4 with the lever 22 attached to the mounting hole provided in the moving body 4 into the case body 2. After fitting the compression spring 21 between the spring seat provided on the movable body 4 and another spring seat 19 provided on the case body 2, the groove 33 of the slide member 34 of the lid 1 guides the case body 2. As the lid 1 and the case body 2 are slid so as to fit into the rails 39, the piston 24 is eventually inserted into the cylinder 23, and the damper device can be assembled without any special damper device assembly work. I can do it. As the lid 1 continues to slide onto the case body 2, the elastic locking piece 38 of the lid 1 will eventually move due to the action of the guide means consisting of the slide member 34 and the guide rail 39.
The locking claw 37 engages with the recess 41 of the case body 2, and at the same time, the stopper piece 35 of the lid 1 comes into contact with the end 42 of the engagement step 40 of the case body 2, and the lid 1 is fixed to the case body 2. , the assembly is complete. When the assembly is completed, the piston 24 is attached to the cylinder 23.
The damper mechanism has been completed.

(Effects of the invention) This invention can prevent an increase in the number of parts for the piston and cylinder even if a damper mechanism is added as described above, and when assembling the storage device, it is possible to prevent the number of parts from increasing. Since the damper device can be assembled at the same time by sliding the lid onto the case body, it does not take much time to assemble the storage device, and cost increases can be suppressed. In addition, because the damper device is placed inside the upper part of the storage device, the area occupied by the storage device on a plane is the same as the size of a conventional storage device without a damper mechanism, and the piston and cylinder are integrated into the moving body and lid, respectively. Combined with this structure, the overall structure requires only a slight protrusion in the vertical direction, so it does not get in the way when parts are placed around the storage device, making it easier to make design changes such as changing the arrangement of parts. You don't have to.
