  • Patent number: 6163668
    Abstract: A composite apparatus includes a business-machine main-body apparatus having at least a copying function and a printer function, and a display device, also operating as an original-pressing plate, having a flat display surface for displaying an operational function and other information. The display device is provided above an original-reading device of the main-body apparatus. By allowing an operation using the display device from a plurality of sides of the main-body apparatus, the range of selection of location of the composite apparatus is widened, and the operability of the composite apparatus is improved.

  • Patent number: 5548334
    Abstract: In a video camera, an outward protruding part is provided on a camera body which contains a converter for converting an object image into a video signal; a rotary unit having a viewfinder which is capable of displaying an image related to the video signal is provided with a connecting part which is of a shape corresponding to the protruding part; and the connecting part is turnable relative to the protruding part. The camera is thus arranged to be adequately operable under any shooting condition, to permit effective utilization of spaces available within the camera body, to reduce a load on the connecting part and to permit reduction in weight.
