  • Patent number: 7237916
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for preventing a half mirror used as a decorative panel of an electronic device from being burned by charged static electricity and having deteriorated appearance, by providing a practical method for providing a ground connection of the half mirror using a soft elastic conductive member to prevent the half mirror from being damaged and to enable easy connection with a rough size accuracy. An electronic device comprises a conductive chassis and a half mirror constituting at least a portion of a decorative panel formed on a front face thereof, wherein an elastic conductive member compressed between a vapor deposited layer formed to an inner surface of the half mirror and a contact surface of the chassis is arranged so that a static electricity charged in the half mirror is conducted via the elastic conductive member toward the conductive chassis.

  • Publication number: 20060143623
    Abstract: To prevent a disk broken in a disk device from jumping to the outside of an electronic apparatus. An electronic apparatus 1 constructed an outer shell by a casing 2 with a front portion opened and a front panel 3 mounted to the opened front portion of the casing 2. At a time of rotating a disk D, the recessed part 5 which is formed at an edge portion of an opening 4 and the boss part 12 at an upper portion of a disk tray 11 are provided side by side to be disposed to close a gap between the front panel 3 and the disk tray 11 so that the broken pieces of the disk D do not jump out of the electronic apparatus from the opening 4.

  • Publication number: 20060113176
    Abstract: To make it possible to prevent static electricity from being accumulated in operation buttons and surely prevent static electricity from being discharged to circuit components inside a case from the operation buttons. A conductive chassis 3 and a printed board 5 mounted with a tact switch 4 are arranged inside a case 2. An operation button 10 for operating the tact switch 4 includes operating sections 11, an engaging hook 17 that engages with an engaging hole 16, and an elastically deformable contact piece 19 integrally formed from the center at a lower end of the operation button via a thin hinge section 18. The operation button 10 is assembled with the button frame 15 and fixed to the case 2. The contact piece 19 elastically comes into contact with the chassis 3 in this state and static electricity accumulated in the operation button 10 flows to the chassis 3.

  • Publication number: 20060113214
    Abstract: To provide a package for an electric apparatus which allows a power cord to be efficiently housed when an electric apparatus is packed and which enables the power supply cord to be appropriately held in a packaging box. A power supply plug holding member 50 is formed by creating a cut-in portion 52 through which a power supply plug 611 is inserted, in a foldable packaging material such as a corrugated fiberboard and then folding the packaging material into a general U shape. The power supply plug 611 of an electric apparatus 61 is locked in the cut-in portion 52 in the power supply plug holding member 50, which is then housed between a packaging box 62 and the electric apparatus 61.
