DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus,
In particular, it relates to a keyboard storage structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A keyboard of a conventional information processing apparatus (hereinafter abbreviated as a personal computer) is left on a desk and occupies a space regardless of whether or not the personal computer is used, so that it cannot be effectively used on the desk. There was a problem. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, for example, as shown in FIG.
A storage device is attached to the monitor 3. The storage device includes an expandable and contractible U-shaped elastic member 11 that is sandwiched so as to cover the upper portion of the monitor 3, and a U-shaped storage member 12 that is fixed to one side of the elastic member. There is provided a storage member for storing a keyboard in the storage device. However, such a storage device has a problem that the structure is complicated and the cost is high.

[0003]

In view of the above problems, the present invention utilizes a space on the top surface of a monitor of a personal computer,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a keyboard storage structure which has a simple structure and which is an inexpensive member and can be effectively used on a desk when the keyboard is not used.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides an information processing apparatus comprising a personal computer main body, a monitor and a keyboard, in which a storage section is formed inside a top surface of the monitor. While attaching the letter-shaped holder, a concave portion is provided on the bottom surface of the keyboard, and the upper portion and at least one side wall are slightly separated from each other inside to form a hook portion that fits into the storage portion of the holder. It is characterized by being placed. In addition, a protrusion is formed at the tip of the top of the holder. Further, the corner portion of the hook portion is formed by a curved surface.

[0005]

With the above structure, the keyboard can be easily attached by simply placing the keyboard on the top surface of the monitor and sliding it.
Easy to remove by reverse operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, reference numeral 1 denotes an information processing apparatus, which is composed of a personal computer main body 2, a monitor 3 mounted on the personal computer main body 2 as a display device, and a keyboard 4 as an input device. By fitting and locking a U-shaped holder 5 attached to the top surface of the monitor 3 with a hook portion 7 formed inside a recess 6 formed in the bottom surface of the keyboard described later, The keyboard 4 is placed and stored on the top surface of the monitor 3. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the holder 5 is integrally formed by a base portion 5a and an arm portion 5b with a U-shaped synthetic resin material, and a storage portion is formed inside the holder portion 5a, and the tip of the arm portion 5b is formed. A protrusion 5c protruding downward is integrally formed on the portion, and is attached to the attachment portion on the top surface of the monitor 3 by using, for example, a double-sided tape 8 or the like. As shown in FIG. 2, the concave portion 6 provided on the bottom surface of the keyboard is slightly separated from the upper wall surface and the left and right side wall surfaces inside, as shown in FIG.
A hook portion 7 that is fitted and locked in the storage portion of the holder 5 is formed. More specifically, the distance a between the right wall surface of the recess 6 and the right surface of the hook portion 7 is made larger than the lateral width b of the holder 5, and the distance c between the upper wall surface of the recess 6 and the upper surface of the hook portion 7 includes the protrusion 5c. The thickness is made larger than the thickness d of the arm portion 5b, and the gap e between the left side wall surface of the concave portion 6 and the left surface of the hook portion 7 is formed larger than the lateral width f of the protrusion portion 5c. In the above configuration,
The keyboard 4 can be stored by inserting a recess 6 provided on the bottom surface of the keyboard 4 onto a holder 5 attached to the top surface of the monitor 3 and sliding the keyboard 4 to the rear of the monitor 3 to hook it. The part 7 can be fitted and locked in the holder 5 to be placed and stored. On the contrary, it can be easily removed by sliding the keyboard 4 toward the front, detaching the hook portion 7 from the holder 5, and lifting. As another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, by making the corners of the hooks 7 curved, the keyboard 4 can be easily taken in and out when the hooks 7 are fitted to the protrusions 5c.

[0007]

As described above, according to the present invention, the keyboard can be stored on the top surface of the monitor easily and inexpensively when the personal computer is not used, so that the keyboard does not occupy the space on the desk. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the desk.
