Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic device including a display unit.

  Electronic devices such as image pickup devices (digital cameras) have various types of displays (in the case of image pickup devices, determination of shooting area, confirmation of shot images, various menus, etc.) displays composed of liquid crystal panels, etc. The department is often equipped. A display unit mounted on an electronic device has a wide range of uses and many important uses. Therefore, a display unit having a large display unit tends to be preferred in the market of electronic devices. Accordingly, in recent years, the size of the display unit has been increased in response to the demands of the electronic equipment market.

  Conventionally, since a display unit mounted on an electronic device has a small shape, the display unit is often installed in an exposed state as it is. However, a display unit composed of a liquid crystal panel or the like is vulnerable to external pressure and impact. For this reason, some reinforcement measures for the display unit are required as the display unit mounted on the electronic apparatus is enlarged.

As a technology for protecting the display unit mounted on electronic devices, an elastic member is placed behind the liquid crystal display panel, and when the external force is applied, the liquid crystal display panel moves to prevent breakage or cracking of the glass. Has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Further, a structure has been proposed in which a reinforcing member which is a separate member is installed on the long side (longitudinal side) of the liquid crystal display device to prevent the liquid crystal display device from being bent when an external force is applied (for example, Patent Document 2). reference).

  However, in the technique described in Patent Document 1, since the elastic member for preventing breakage and cracking of the glass is disposed behind the liquid crystal display panel, a space for arranging the elastic member is not provided in the electronic device. It is necessary to secure inside the housing. For this reason, there is a problem that the electronic device is increased in size and a problem that the cost is increased because an elastic member is separately required. Further, the technique described in Patent Document 2 also has a problem that it is unavoidable to increase the size and cost of the electronic device because a reinforcing member is additionally required to prevent the liquid crystal display device from being bent.

  An object of the present invention is to prevent the external force applied to the cover member from being transmitted to the display unit to the minimum, and to make it possible to improve the strength of the display unit at low cost and in a small space without adding parts.

  A microphone (hereinafter referred to as a microphone) 66 is disposed on the front side of the battery case 21. The microphone 66 is covered with a rubber microphone bush, and is connected to the main wiring board 51 by a lead wire. The microphone bush placed on the microphone 66 is compressed by the front cover 1 and has a function of shielding noise inside the imaging apparatus main body and improving the sound collection efficiency.

  On the upper surface flexible wiring board 61, a release switch, a power switch, a light emitting diode (hereinafter referred to as an LED) for AF auxiliary light, and a dial pattern for mode detection corresponding to the rotation position of the mode dial described later are mounted. An operation wiring board 71 is connected to one end portion of the upper surface flexible wiring board 61 and is electrically connected to the main wiring board 51 through the operation wiring board 71. A strobe wiring board 43 is connected to the other end of the upper surface flexible wiring board 61.

  The top plate 62 is bonded to the upper surface flexible wiring board 61 with a double-sided tape, and is installed for the purpose of improving the strength of the upper surface flexible wiring board 61. The top plate 62 also serves as an electromagnetic shield for the upper surface flexible wiring board 61. The top plate 62 is in contact with a side auxiliary metal fitting 65 and an LCD holder 122 made of metal, which will be described later, and is fixed by screws.

  The speaker 68 is fixed to the speaker holder 69 with a double-sided tape. The lead wire of the speaker 68 is connected to the operation wiring board 71. A donut-shaped elastic body is attached to the front surface of the speaker 68. The elastic body attached to the speaker 68 is pressed against the rear cover 3 to prevent sound leakage from the speaker 68 and improve acoustic performance.

  In the operation wiring board 71, switches and LEDs are mounted on the surface on the back side of the imaging device, and a board-to-board connector is mounted on the surface opposite to the mounting surface. The operation wiring board 71 is electrically connected to the main wiring board 51 via a board-to-board connector. The operation wiring board 71 is configured to be grounded to the attachment fitting 75 and the auxiliary fitting 65 and screwed with screws 76 a and 76 b from above the resin inner member 56. Positioning of the operation wiring board 71 with respect to the main wiring board 51 is determined only by a board-to-board connector, and there is no other thing by positioning holes or positioning axes. This is for preventing double contact and damage to the contact portion of the board-to-board connector.

  The purpose of fixing the operation wiring board 71 to the inner member 56 with the screws 76a and 76b is to fix the operation wiring board 71 positioned by the board-to-board connector only in the optical axis direction of the imaging apparatus. The screws 76a and 76b are tightened with the inner member 56 interposed so as not to give torque at the time of screw tightening to the operation wiring board 71. Thereby, the operation wiring board 71 can be fixed well without applying a load to the board-to-board connector.

  The rear cover 3 is integrally formed with a positioning attachment portion for various operation buttons 82, a hole 3 b serving as an eyepiece window portion of the finder unit 14, and a sound hole 3 c of the speaker 68. One of the various operation buttons 82 arranged on the back side of the imaging device is a light emitting button 82a having a light guide member 83 attached to the center thereof. The light emitting button 82 a is configured such that the tact switch 72 mounted on the operation wiring board 71 can be pressed by the light guide member 83.

  An LED 73 is disposed below the tact switch 72. Light emitted from the LED 73 is guided to the surface of the light emitting button 82 a through the light guide member 83. The other buttons (cross buttons) are hung by resin arms of various operation buttons 82 made of resin, and are configured to be able to press a switch mounted on the operation wiring board 71. The playback button 82b is pressed when displaying an image that has been taken by the imaging apparatus on the display unit. The playback button 82b is pressed when the imaging apparatus is changed from a recording mode (to be described later) to a playback mode.

  For the mode dial 63, still image shooting, moving image shooting, and various scene modes are assigned according to the rotation position. For example, when the imaging apparatus is in the recording mode, the recording mode is set by rotating the mode dial 63. Can be changed. The mode dial 63 is stopped by being urged by a click spring (not shown), and is configured to be rotatable to the next rotation position with a constant torque.

  Further, a contact brush that interlocks with the rotation of the mode dial 63 and a brush holder (not shown) welded to the contact brush are positioned on the mode dial 63 and fixed by screws. As the mode dial 63 is rotated by the operator's operation, the contact brush short-circuits the mode detection dial pattern of the upper surface flexible wiring board 61. As a result, it is possible to determine on the imaging apparatus main body side at which rotational position the mode dial 63 is stopped.

  The front cover 1 holds a zoom lever 102, a release button 103, and a power button 104. When the zoom lever 102, the release button 103, and the power button 104 held on the front cover 1 are operated in a state where the imaging device is assembled, corresponding electronic components (switches) mounted on the upper surface flexible wiring board 61 are operated. Is configured to press.

  The LCD unit 121 (display unit) is a display unit composed of an LCD panel (display unit) using two pieces of glass as constituent members and a backlight unit using LEDs as light sources. A flexible wiring substrate 121a connected to the LCD panel by an ACF (Anisotropic Conductive Film) is extended from a substantially central portion of the side (end) near the main wiring substrate 51 in the LCD unit 121. .

  The extended flexible wiring board (hereinafter, FPC) 121 a passes through a hole (not shown) formed in a part of the LCD holder 122 and is connected to the main wiring board 51. It has been experimentally obtained that extending the FPC 121a from the side of the LCD unit 121 is not easily affected by interference with signals of the imaging system.

  The engagement between the LCD unit 121 and the LCD holder 122 (holding member) is performed by fitting a claw portion provided in a protruding state from the LCD unit 121 into a hole of the LCD holder 122. The upper bezel 121b and the LCD holder 122, which are constituent members of the LCD unit 121, are connected to the ground (electrical connection) by the leaf spring portion 122a partially provided on the LCD holder 122 contacting the upper bezel 121b. I'm taking it.

  The LCD holder 122 is made of a sheet metal having a relatively high strength such as SUS. The LCD holder 122 includes a main body that covers the bottom surface of the LCD unit 121 (the back side of the display unit), and a plurality of the LCD holders 122 that are formed on the outer peripheral edge of the main body for the purpose of reinforcement and light shielding and cover the four side surfaces of the LCD unit 121 And a standing wall portion.

  Standing wall portions 122b, 122c, 122d, and 122e (see FIG. 4) are formed on the outer peripheral edge portion of the LCD holder 122 so as to cover the four side surfaces of the LCD unit 121. The standing wall portions 122b to 122e of the LCD holder 122 are formed so that their respective front end portions are in contact with the inner wall portion of the rear cover 3 and slightly higher than the thickness of the LCD unit 121 (higher than the thickness). . Thus, the external force is transmitted not to the LCD unit 121 but to the LCD holder 122 by acting as a column that receives the external force applied to the rear cover 3.

  The LCD holder 122 is fixed by being positioned with respect to the metal chassis 6 and fastened by two screws. Most of the back surface of the LCD holder 122 (the surface opposite to the surface facing the LCD unit 121) is grounded (surface contact) with the metal chassis 6. On the other hand, the portion of the back surface of the LCD holder 122 that covers the main wiring board 51 is provided with attachment portions for attaching the battery case 21 to the LCD holder 122 at the upper end portion and the lower end portion. It is in a state. In order to reinforce these strength deficiencies, the standing wall 122e on the main wiring board 51 side of the LCD holder 122 is subjected to hemming bending (180 degree bending) to improve the strength.

  Next, the structures of the LCD unit 121 and the LCD holder 122 of the imaging apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1, 4, 5, and 6. FIG.

  4A is a rear view showing an assembled state of the LCD unit and the LCD holder of the imaging apparatus, and FIG. 4B is a bottom view of FIG. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a configuration along the line AA in FIG. FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a configuration along the line BB in FIG. In FIGS. 5 and 6, a part of the rear cover 3 is indicated by a broken line for easy understanding.

  4, on the outer peripheral edge of the LCD holder 122, as described above, the upper standing wall 122b, the left standing wall 122c, the lower standing wall 122d, and the right standing wall 122e are the main body of the LCD holder 122. It is formed in a state where it is raised in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the part.

  On the other hand, the speaker holder 69 is made of a resin member, and is fixed to the LCD holder 122 by screws from the back side in the drawing. The speaker holder 69 is integrally provided with a rib portion 69a. The rib portion 69 a of the speaker holder 69 is configured to fit between the right side bent portion 122 e of the LCD holder 122 and the LCD unit 121.

  In FIG. 5, it can be seen that the right standing wall 122e of the LCD holder 122 is in a state of being hemmed (180 degree bent). Moreover, the rib part 69a in the protruding state, which is a part of the speaker holder 69, enters between the right standing wall part 122e of the LCD holder 122 and the LCD unit 121, thereby filling a gap between the two members, Playing a role.

  By adopting such a configuration, the external force applied to the rear cover 3 is transmitted to the right standing wall 122e of the LCD holder 122 and a part of the speaker holder 69, so that it is difficult to transmit the external force to the LCD unit 121. Can do. By bringing the inner wall surface of the rear cover 3 and the right-side standing wall portion 122e of the LCD holder 122 and the rib portion 69a of the speaker holder 69 into a contact state or a state with a very small gap therebetween, the LCD unit 121 is externally applied. It becomes a very important element in protecting from.

  In FIG. 6, the LCD holder 122 is made of sheet metal such as SUS as described above, and an FPC insertion opening 122 f is provided between the edge of the main body of the LCD holder 122 and the right standing wall 122 e. Is provided. The FPC 121 a extended from the LCD unit 121 passes through the opening 122 f of the LCD holder 122 and is connected to the main wiring board 51. By chamfering the edge surface of the main body of the LCD holder 122, the FPC 121a is not cut even if the FPC 121a passing through the opening 122f of the LCD holder 122 contacts the edge.

  Since the FPC 121a is ACF bonded to the glass substrate of the LCD unit 121 by the ACF bonding portion 121c, if the bending of the FPC 121a is too strong, stress in the peeling direction may be applied to the ACF bonding portion 121c and the bonding may be peeled off. Therefore, the dimension L between the end of the LCD unit 121 and the right-side standing wall 122e of the LCD holder 122 in FIG. 6 cannot be made too small. Therefore, the dimension L is determined based on data obtained from various experimental results. Of course, if the dimension L is increased, the problem of peeling off the ACF bonding portion 121c of the LCD unit 121 is eliminated, but an extra space is required in the apparatus, leading to an increase in the size of the apparatus. Therefore, the dimension L is determined as described above. .

  FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a portion where the FPC is not present in the LCD unit of the imaging apparatus according to the present embodiment, and showing a configuration along the line CC in FIG. 4A. In FIG. 1, a part of the rear cover 3 is indicated by a broken line for easy understanding.

  In FIG. 1, as described above, the right standing wall 122e of the LCD holder 122 is hemmed (180 degree bent). Further, as described above, the LCD unit 121, the LCD holder 122, and the rear part are arranged so that the inner wall surface of the rear cover 3 and the right-side standing wall portion 122e of the LCD holder 122 are in contact with each other or separated from each other by a very small gap. A cover 3 is arranged. In the present embodiment, a portion corresponding to the dimension L shown in FIG. 6, that is, a space formed between the end portion of the LCD unit 121 and the right standing wall portion 122 e of the LCD holder 122, The protruding rib 3d is configured to enter.

  By adopting a structure in which the rib 3d of the rear cover 3 is inserted into the space, the rear cover 3 itself can be strengthened. At the same time, when an external force is applied to the rear cover 3, the tips of the ribs 3d come into contact with the LCD holder 122 to act as a tension rod, so that the rear cover 3 can be prevented from bending into the apparatus. It becomes. Since the rib 3d of the rear cover 3 functions as a tension rod, the external force applied to the rear cover 3 is transmitted to the LCD holder 122 through the rib 3d, and the external force is further applied to the battery case 21 and the metal chassis 6 (see FIG. 2). Will be distributed.

  As a result, the rear cover 3 is deformed by an external force to prevent direct contact with the LCD unit 121, and the LCD panel including the LCD unit 121 glass and the chip parts mounted on the glass are protected from damage. It becomes possible to do. Instead of the configuration in which the rib 3d is provided on the rear cover 3, it is also possible to configure the component corresponding to the rib 3d as a separate part, and substantially the same effect can be obtained. However, in this case, the cost increase due to the addition of parts cannot be denied, and the strength of the rear cover itself cannot be improved as compared with the configuration in which the rear cover 3 is provided with the rib 3d. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the rear cover 3 is provided with ribs 3d.

  FIG. 7A is a perspective view when the LCD holder is viewed from the front side, and FIG. 7B is a perspective view when the LCD holder is viewed from the back side.

  In FIG. 7, as described above, the LCD holder 122 has an opening 122 f for allowing the FPC 121 a extended from the LCD unit 121 to pass therethrough. Since the opening 122f is formed in the LCD holder 122, the strength in the vicinity of the opening 122f tends to be slightly weakened.

  Therefore, a reinforcing half-cut portion 122g is provided in the vicinity of the opening 122f of the LCD holder 122. Thereby, the deformation | transformation by the twist and external force of the LCD holder 122 can be decreased. In addition, the LCD holder 122 is provided with positioning cut and raised portions 122h and 122i for restricting the position of the LCD unit 121. Thereby, the positional relationship between the right standing wall 122e of the LCD holder 122 and the LCD unit 121 can be maintained.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the rib 3d of the rear cover 3 is inserted between the end of the LCD unit 121 and the right side wall 122e of the LCD holder 122. In this case, the right standing wall 122e is slightly weaker than the external force due to the opening 122f of the LCD holder 122, but a rib 3d is inserted to compensate for this. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the external force applied to the rear cover 3 from being transmitted to the LCD unit 121 to the minimum, and to prevent the LCD unit 121 from being damaged. Thereby, the strength of the LCD unit 121 can be improved at low cost and space saving without adding parts.

  Further, the upper standing wall portion 122b, the left standing wall portion 122c, the lower standing wall portion 122d, and the right standing wall portion 122e of the LCD holder 122 are formed slightly higher than the thickness of the LCD unit 121. Accordingly, each of the standing wall portions 122b to 122e can serve as a column that receives an external force applied to the rear cover 3, and the external force applied to the rear cover 3 can be hardly transmitted to the LCD unit 121.

  Further, hemming bending (180 degree bending) is applied to the standing wall portion 122e of the LCD holder 122. Thereby, the strength of the LCD unit 121 can be further improved without adding any parts.

[Other Embodiments]
In the above embodiment, as described with reference to FIG. 5, the configuration in which the rib portion 69a of the speaker holder 69 is inserted between the LCD unit 121 and the right-side standing wall portion 122e of the LCD holder 122 has been described as an example. It is not limited to. This is a configuration adopted because the speaker holder 69 is installed in the vicinity of the LCD unit 121 and the LCD holder 122. When the speaker holder 69 is not in the vicinity of the LCD unit 121 and the LCD holder 122, the rib 3d of the rear cover 3 is placed in the space between the end of the LCD unit 121 and the right side wall 122e of the LCD holder 122 as shown in FIG. It is good also as a structure which aims at the improvement of intensity | strength.

  In the above embodiment, an example in which the opening 122f is provided between the edge of the LCD holder 122 and the right standing wall 122e and the FPC 121a of the LCD unit 121 passes through the opening 122f is taken as an example.
