Abstract:
In case a similar component-to-be-loaded is erroneously loaded on a main body side apparatus, contact of terminals are avoided. To this end, a video camera (main body side apparatus) 1 has a main body side terminal 30, and a battery pack (component-to-be-loaded) 100 has a battery side terminal (component-to-be-loaded side terminal) 120. In the vicinity of the battery side terminal of the component-to-be-loaded, a discriminating tab 111 is provided, and a blocking portion 19 is provided in the vicinity of the main body side terminal of the video camera (main body side apparatus) for determining whether or not its loading is permitted based on the combination of concave and convex engagement with respect to the above-mentioned discriminating tab, and when the loading is not permitted due to the interference between the blocking portion and the above-mentioned discriminating tab, an electric connection between the main body side terminal and the battery side terminal (component-to-be-loaded side terminal) is not to be established.

Abstract:
Contact of terminals of a component to be loaded on a device and terminals on the device are avoided, even if the component is similar to, but differs from, a component intended to be loaded on that device. A discriminating tab is provided in the vicinity of the component terminals and a blocking portion is provided in the vicinity of the device terminals. The discriminating tab and blocking portion are relatively positioned to provide concave and convex interference or engagement with each other, either to block connection of the component terminal with the device terminal because of interference if the component is not permitted to be loaded on the device, or to permit connection of the component terminal with the device terminal because of engagement.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make movable a cover body while releasing the locking of the cover body by a cover locking mechanism by matching the operation direction of the cover locking mechanism with that of the cover body. SOLUTION: In this cover opening/closing device provided with the cover body 34 for opening and closing the aperture part of a battery housing part 3 in which a battery pack is attachably/detachably housed through sliding operation and the cover locking mechanism for locking the cover body 34 in a state that the aperture part is closed, the cover body 34 can be slid and operated by applying the force exerted in the perpendicular direction nearly perpendicularly crossing the sliding direction of the cover body 34 thereby releasing the locking by the cover opening/closing device 33.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lid open-close structure for detaching a stored article such as a battery pack of an electronic device with a user-friendly simple operation. SOLUTION: A battery storage part 30 has an opening/closing lid body 34. The lid body 34 has a locking pawl 50 locked into a lock protrusion 61 formed at the battery storage part 30 in a state of being perfectly closed and slidably attached to a plate-like member 38. The member 38 is hinge-jointed to a body side member 40 fixed to an electronic device body 11 and constantly energized in the direction to open an opening 30a by means of a torsion coil spring 41. The lid body 34 is enabled to turn at a position where the opening 30a is slide-operated from the closed position, and turned into an opened state by being turned about 90° by means of the spring 41. In the opened state, the lid body 34 is made to contacted with the device body 11, and held in a state of upright standing. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide optical equipment where a fixed lens barrel is held in a housing so that an impact and a stress may not be directly applied on the lens barrel without increasing the fixed lens barrel in capacity and weight, as for the optical equipment with a collapsible mount type lens constituted of a movable lens barrel and the fixed lens barrel. SOLUTION: A stainless steel belt-like frame 4 is attached to the top surface and the bottom surface of the synthetic resin housing 2 by screwing, and the synthetic resin fixed lens barrel 5 is attached to the belt-like frame 4 by screwing. As for the belt-like frame 4, the cross section of the annular part 42 is formed in a L-shape so that the frame 4 may be hardly deformed, besides, the top mount part 41 and the bottom mount part 43 are formed in an easily deformable flat shape, then, the impact and the stress applied on the housing 2 are absorbed, and the impact and the stress are not directly applied on the fixed lens barrel 5. Besides, a narrow gap is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the belt-like frame 4 and the outer peripheral surface of the fixed lens barrel 5, then, even in the case the annular part 42 of the frame 4 is deformed, the frame 4 never comes into contact with the fixed lens barrel 5.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the number of the parts of a fitting structure part of a light unit and to simplify the structure thereof in a video camera constituted so that the light unit is fitted to a video camera main body. SOLUTION: One part of a housing 8 of a light unit 4 is provided with engagement pawl parts 13 and 14. By engaging the pawl parts 13 and 14 with parts to be engaged 15 and 16 formed at the side of a video camera main body 2, the unit 4 is fixed and held by the main body 2. Further, the main body 2 is provided with a hole 17 corresponding to the pawl part 14 of the unit 4. By inserting a bar-like body 18 from the hole 17 and disengaging the pawl part 14 from the part to be engaged 16, the unit 4 is removed.
