Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing defining an interior space with an opening, a lid, a first locking member, a restricting member, and a second locking member. The lid is coupled to the housing to close and unclose the opening. The first locking member is coupled to the lid and movable in a first direction between a closed position to lock the lid over the opening and an open position to unlock the lid from over the opening. The restricting member is mounted to the lid and movable between a restricting position to prevent the first locking member from moving to the open position and a retracted position to permit the first locking member to move to the open position. The second locking member is coupled to the lid and movable in the first direction to allow the restricting member to switch between the restricting position and the retracted position.

Abstract: A lid sealing structure is provided that includes a housing, a lid, and a waterproof gasket. The housing defines an interior space with an opening and includes a sealing portion that encircles the opening and provides access to the interior space. The lid is configured to cover and uncover the opening. The waterproof gasket includes a base portion, a first contact portion, and a second contact portion. The base portion is mounted to the lid, and the first and second contact portions extend from the base portion and arranged to contact the sealing portion.

Abstract: The present invention is configured so that one light emission source such as a light emitting diode is placed inside an operation knob in front of a light guiding piece or in a bearing of the operation knob. A light beam from the light emission source is emitted to the interior of the operation knob. A reflected indirect light irregularly reflected inside the operation knob is received by the light guiding piece located at a rear surface of the operation knob. The light guiding piece has a transmission and diffusion function. The light is then guided toward an outer periphery to illuminate the rear surface of the operation knob.

Abstract: A display apparatus according to the present invention includes a transmission type of fluorescent display lamp (FL) 1 on which a pattern layer is not masked. The rear and front spaces of the transmission type FL 1 are defined by frames 5, 6. On each frame 5, 6 is attached an illumination display member, such as a light guide plate 8 or a transmission sheet 9, so that illumination displays are provided at both front and rear sides of the FL 1 by a light emitting source 10 such as an LED, fluorescent lamp and so on. Thus, a greater three-dimensional visual effect (depth perception) can be obtained. Further, by utilizing spaces in the front and the rear of the transmission type FL 1, a wider representation and functional display through a microcomputer control can be performed. Use of the light emitting source 10 lowers cost in comparison with the conventional biplanar type of FL.
