  • Publication number: 20190100103
    Abstract: An on-vehicle device includes a main body and a display. The display is detachable from the main body. The main body includes a main-body-side electrical connector, a circuit board, a switch, and a blind cover. The main-body-side electrical connector is formed to project from a front surface of the main body, and is detachable from a display-side electrical connector. The circuit board supports the main-body-side electrical connector. The switch is formed on the circuit board and switches the main-body-side electrical connector between an energizing state and a de-energizing state. The blind cover is attached to a connection part of the main-body-side electrical connector and the display-side electrical connector to cover the connection part. The blind cover has a projection configured to press the switch to switch the main-body-side electrical connector from the de-energizing state to the energizing state when the blind cover is attached to the connection part to cover the connection part.

  • Patent number: 7134127
    Abstract: A restriction plate (21) is provided on a lower surface of a near side of an upper plate of a chassis base (101). Both disk (D1) and disk (D2), while keeping in contact with a contact guide portion P1 of the restriction plate (21), are inserted. A stopper portion (P2) is formed at a farther side position than the contact guide portion (P1). A peripheral surface of a transfer roller (5) is placed in a moving direction of the disks (D1), (D2) proceeding while contacting upper surfaces of disk guides (2R), (2L) of a disk loading slit (20), and the contact guide portion (P1). Further, the stopper portion (P2) exists at a position corresponding to a direction of a tangent line which passes through the contact guide portion (P1), out of the tangent lines of the aforementioned peripheral surface, at positions other than the moving direction of the disks (D1), (D2).
