EXAMPLES The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to examples. The table tap body 1 is formed by joining a synthetic resin molded body 12 and a cover 13 as shown in FIGS. 2 (a), 2 (b) and 3 (b).
As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3A, the body 12 is provided with plug blade insertion openings 14 at a plurality of positions. The table tap body 1 has a built-in blade receiving metal fitting corresponding to the blade insertion port 14, a terminal metal fitting, etc., and an electric cord 11 having a plug attached to the tip is provided in the table tap body 1 at one end. It is introduced from and is connected to the terminal metal fittings. Further, one or both end portions of the table tap body 1 are provided with projecting flange pieces 15, and holes 16 for hooking the screws on a wall or the like to temporarily fix the table tap on the flange piece 15 are provided. It is provided.

On the back surface of the table tap body 1, FIG.
As shown in (b), the accommodation recess 3 is provided in the vicinity of one end and the other end thereof. The accommodation recess 3 is opened in a rectangular shape, and one end in the longitudinal direction is formed as a slightly wide operation recess 17. This operation recess 17
As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the elastic plate piece 18 is integrally projected from the bottom toward the opening side.
A pair of engaging claws 9 are integrally projectingly provided on the inner side of the tip of the. The outer surface of the engaging claw 9 is formed as an inclined surface 9a. The elastic plate piece 18 is formed so as to be spaced apart from the inner wall surface of the operation recess 17 and is elastically bent and deformed in the thickness direction thereof as shown in FIG. It is designed to be elastically displaceable. Inside the base of this elastic plate piece 18, a jig insertion hole 19 as shown in FIG. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, an engagement hole 8 is provided in the vicinity of the bottom of the other end of the accommodation recess 3 in the longitudinal direction, and the accommodation recess 3 is formed so as to be continuous with the engagement hole 8. A guide groove 20 is provided on the bottom surface.

As the magnet 2, a magnet formed only of a magnet can be used, but as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a yoke 5 is superposed on and fixed to a magnet element body 4 which is the magnet itself to form a block shape. I tried to use what I did. The magnet body 4 is formed in a flat rectangular parallelepiped as shown in FIG. 5B, and the yoke 5 formed in a U-shaped cross section with a magnetic metal plate such as a steel plate is covered on the magnet body 4 to The tubular rivet-shaped tack 23 is passed through the through holes 21 and 22 provided in the center of the yoke 5, respectively.
The yoke 5 is fixed to the magnet body 4 by caulking as shown in FIG.
The block-shaped magnet 2 as shown in (b) and (c) can be formed. Crimping pieces 23a, 23b of the tack 23
Are the through holes 21 of the magnet body 4 and the yoke 5, respectively.
It is adapted to be housed in the concave step portions 21a, 22a on the periphery of 22.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, at one end portion of the magnet 2 in the longitudinal direction, a mounting claw 6 is integrally extended and protrudes from the central portion of the yoke 5, and the projection of the magnet 2 is provided. At the other end portion in the longitudinal direction, mounting claws 7, 7 are integrally projected and provided at both end portions of the yoke 5, respectively. The tip of the mounting claw 7 is formed as an inclined surface 7a. In this way, by using the yoke 5, the mounting claws 6 and 7 can be formed on the magnet 2.

The magnet 2 formed as described above can be fitted into the accommodation recess 3 of the table tap body 1 to be attached. That is, first, one end of the magnet 2 is inserted into the accommodation recess 3 and then the magnet 2 shown in FIG.
As shown in (b), the mounting claw 6 is inserted into the engagement hole 8 and engaged. At this time, the mounting claws 6 are smoothly inserted by being guided by the guide grooves 20. Next, when the other end of the magnet 2 is pushed into the accommodation recess 3,
The inclined surface 9a of the engaging claw 9 is pressed by the inclined surface 7b of the mounting claw 7, and the elastic plate piece 18 elastically bends in the direction opposite to the magnet 2 as shown in FIG. Displaced,
As shown in FIG. 7A, the mounting claw 7 is engaged with the engaging claw 9. Thus, the insertion recess of the mounting claw 6 into the engaging hole 8 and the hooking engagement of the mounting claw 7 into the engaging claw 9 cause the accommodation recess as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3C. The magnet 2 can be attached by being fitted into the magnet 3.

The magnet 2 is housed and mounted in the housing recess 3 so that the front surface of the magnet 2 and the back surface of the table tap body 1 are substantially flush with each other. As shown in FIG. In addition, the table tap body 1 can be temporarily fixed to the side surface of the desk 24 or cabinet formed of a member such as steel that attracts a magnet. In this way, the table tap body 1 is OA
By temporarily fixing and using the desk 24 or the cabinet on which the device is installed, the cords of the OA device can be neatly wired.

Further, when the temporary fixing by the magnet 2 is not performed, or when it is necessary to avoid the adverse effect of the magnetic force of the magnet 2, the magnet 2 is removed from the accommodation recess 3 of the table tap body 1. be able to. The removal operation is performed by inserting the tip of a jig 25 such as a screwdriver as shown in FIG. 8A between the end of the magnet 2 and the elastic plate piece 18 between the pair of engaging claws 9. Further, attach the tip of the jig 25 to the jig insertion hole 19
The jig 25 inserted into the jig insertion hole 19
By rotating the jig 25 with the tip of the fulcrum as a fulcrum as shown by an arrow, the elastic plate piece 18 is elastically bent toward the side opposite to the magnet 2 as shown in FIG. It can be performed by displacing and disengaging the attachment claw 7 and the engagement claw 9. When the engagement between the attachment claw 7 and the engagement claw 9 is released, the insertion engagement of the attachment claw 7 into the engagement hole 8 is automatically released, and the magnet 2 can be taken out from the accommodation recess 3. Thus, the magnet 2 can be easily removed by using the jig 25 such as a driver.

[0019]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the magnet is attached to the back surface of the table tap body, the table tap can be temporarily fixed to the desk or cabinet made of steel by magnetic attachment by the magnet 2. It is something that can be done, and can be improved in usability.

Since the magnet is detachably attached to the table tap body, the magnet can be removed from the table tap body when the magnet is not temporarily fixed, and the adverse effect of the magnetic force of the magnet can be prevented. It is possible. In addition, since the housing recess that opens to the back of the table tap body is provided as a recess, and the magnet is installed in the housing recess so that the surface of the magnet and the back surface of the table tap body are approximately flush, the magnet It does not protrude from the back of the table tap body and does not get in the way, and the magnet can be directly attached to a steel desk or cabinet to firmly fix the table tap body temporarily.

Further, a magnet is formed by stacking and fixing a yoke on the magnet body, and a mounting claw is projected on the yoke, and the mounting claw is engaged with the table tap body to mount the magnet on the table tap body. Since it is detachably attached to the table, the magnet can be attached to the table tap body by the engaging means by the attachment claws provided on the yoke, and the engagement and disengagement facilitates the attachment and removal of the magnet. is there.

Further, mounting claws are projected on one side end and the other side end of the magnet, respectively, and an engaging hole is formed in one side end of the accommodating recess of the table tap body and the accommodating recess. An elastically displaceable engaging claw is provided in the other side end of the magnet, the magnet is accommodated in the accommodating recess, and the attaching claw at one side end of the magnet is inserted and engaged in the engaging hole. Since the mounting claw at the other side end of the engaging claw is disengageably engaged with the engaging claw, the engaging claw and the mounting claw can be engaged or disengaged by elastically displacing the engaging claw. The engagement can be easily released, and the operation of attaching and detaching the magnet is facilitated.
