Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention is a quick-shooting case for a camera, specifically covering the body that fixes the camera body, the long lens barrel provided at the front of the camera body, and the upper part of the camera body. The present invention relates to a camera snapshot case having a front lid.

[Background of the idea]

Conventionally, in a quick-shooting case that houses a camera with a long protruding lens barrel, in order to open and close the front cover that covers from the long lens barrel to the top of the camera body, the front cover itself is cut wide open and the separated part is used as a fastener. Alternatively, various types are known that are configured to be connected using hooks. The separation methods include the method in which the top surface of the front cover is split to the left and right as shown in Figure 6, the method in which the side surface of the cylindrical part that houses the lens barrel is split as shown in Figure 7, and the method in Figure 8. As shown in the figure, a method is known in which the lens barrel is broken at the joint between the bottom surface and both side surfaces of the cylindrical portion that accommodates the lens barrel.

However, all of the above-mentioned systems have the disadvantage that when opening and closing the front cover, the separated parts must be connected and disconnected using hooks or fasteners, which requires time and effort to open and close. Moreover, the methods shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 have the disadvantage that the machining is complicated because the surface is divided, and the shape is likely to be distorted, and the method shown in FIG. Since the front lid was suspended from the bottom of the fuselage, the total length of the front lid being suspended became long, which had the disadvantage of making it difficult to perform photographic operations.

[Purpose of invention]

The object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional case, and to provide a quick-shooting case for a camera in which the front cover can be easily opened and closed, has excellent operability, and does not require complicated processing.

[Summary of the idea]

In order to achieve the above object, a camera case has a body 1 that fixes a camera body B, and a front lid 2 that covers from a photographing lens barrel L that protrudes long from the camera body B to the top of the camera body B.
A notch 11 that is not partially joined is provided on the side closer to the body of the joint between the bottom part 5 of the front cover and both side parts 8 of the front cover that cover the side surfaces of the photographic lens barrel L, and both notches of this notch are provided. The bottom portion 5 is configured to be bendable only along a straight line 5a connecting the terminal ends 11a.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a side view showing an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a bottom view of FIG. 1. A front cover 2 that covers the upper part of the body 1 to which the camera body can be fixed and the photographic lens barrel is attached to the back of the body 1 by one hook 3 at the lower part and two hooks 4 at the upper part. ing. The bottom part 5 and the front part 6 of the front cover 2
The upper surface portion 7 and the upper surface portion 7 are made of the same leather, and both side portions 8 and the back portion 9 of the front lid 2 are formed separately. Further, a notch 10 is provided between the side surface 8 and the back surface 9 for allowing a camera suspension ring (not shown) to come out of the case. Further, among the ridgeline portions where the side surface portion 8 and the bottom surface portion 5 are fitted,
A notch 11 that is not partially joined is provided on the side closer to the body 1, and at the end 11a of the notch at the boundary between the notch 11 and the joint, the bottom part 5
is configured to be bendable along a bending line 5a shown in FIG. Note that the length of the notch 11 depends on the length of the photographic lens barrel to be accommodated and the shape of the front lid top surface 7, so that the front lid top surface 7 can escape from the tip of the photographic lens as shown in FIG. , and the front cover rear part 9 is set to a minimum so as to escape from the upper surface of the camera body.

Since the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is configured as described above, when the hook 4 of the case in which the camera is housed is removed and the back part 9 of the front cover 2 is lifted upward as shown in FIG. 5 is the cut end 11a
It can be bent around the center. As a result, the fourth
As shown in the cross-sectional explanatory diagram of the figure, the lens tip P is in the same state as rotated around the notch end 11a, and draws an arc as shown by the broken line _R1 . Also,
The upper end Q of the camera body B also draws an arc as shown by the broken line _R2 . Therefore, the front cover 2 can be opened without being interfered with by the photographing lens barrel L and the camera body B.

In addition, as in another embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG.
By providing this, the gap between the cut portions 11 can be closed thereby, and the intrusion of dust and the like can be prevented.
Furthermore, if the membrane member 12 is made foldable and provided with folding hooks, it is possible to prevent the vicinity of the notch from opening inadvertently outward. In addition, the cut portion 11
Since the length of is short, both sides 8 of the notch 11
There is no need to connect the and bottom surface 5 to each other with fasteners, hooks, etc.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, according to the present invention, a notch portion is provided by separating a portion of the joint between the side portion and the bottom portion of the front cover, so that the bottom portion can be bent around a straight line connecting both ends of the notch portion. Because of this structure, opening and closing of the front cover is extremely easy, and there is no need to connect separated parts with fasteners or hooks. Furthermore, since the front cover does not hang downward for a long time when the front cover is opened, the operability of the camera is not hindered, the number of parts can be reduced, and there is an advantage that the front cover can be formed compactly.

Furthermore, since the bottom part can be bent only along the straight line connecting the ends of both cuts, there is no need to form a plurality of bending parts for opening and closing the front cover, and the machining of the case does not become complicated.
