  • Publication number: 20190079559
    Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes a mount, a locking member, a movable projection member, and a first moving mechanism. The mount can mount a first housing in a predetermined positional relationship with the mounting apparatus. The locking member is provided to be movable between an initial position and a position corresponding to a revolving position of a second housing. The locking member can lock the electronic device with the second housing. The movable projection member is disposed to abut the first housing mounted on the mount, and moves in an apparatus thickness direction when the movable projection member abuts the first housing. When the locking member lies at the initial position, and the movable projection member moves in the apparatus thickness direction, the first moving mechanism moves the locking member from the initial position of the locking member to the position corresponding to the revolving position of the second housing.

  • Patent number: 10061355
    Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes a mount, a locking member, an operating member, and a second moving mechanism. The mount can mount a first housing in a predetermined positional relationship with the mounting apparatus. The locking member is provided to be movable between an initial position and a position corresponding to a revolving position of a second housing. The locking member can lock the electronic device with the second housing. The operating member moves in a predetermined direction through a user operation. When the locking member lies at a position corresponding to the revolving position of the second housing, and the operating member moves in the predetermined direction, the second moving mechanism causes the locking member to move from the position corresponding to the revolving position of the second housing to the initial position.

  • Patent number: 10025353
    Abstract: A mounting apparatus includes a mount and a locking member. The mount can mount a first housing in a predetermined positional relationship with the mounting apparatus. The locking member is capable of locking an electronic device. The locking member is provided so as to be revolvable about a revolving axis center disposed on a position on an axis center approximately identical to a revolving axis center when the first housing is mounted on the mount to lock the electronic device with the second housing.
