Abstract

Abstract An electronic display fixation device fixation device which comprises a flat platelike rest (1) on which an electronic display (2) is set, holding members (4, 5) extending from each one of the opposed longitudinal edges of the rest (1) for retaining the longitudinal end of the electronic display (2), fixing members (26, 27, 28) extending from the back surface of the platelike rest (1) for fixing the platelike rest on the circuit board, a pair of attachment members which are composed of projections (E) respectively formed on at least one of the holding members (4, 5) and on the rest and insertion holes (F) to which the abovementioned projections (E) are inserted, and engaging members (H, 41, 43) for attaching the holding members (4, 5) to the platelike rest (1) so as to be pivotaly movable and for engaging the holding members (4, 5) at the position where the electronic display (2) is retained.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A fixation device for an electronic display which comprises: a flat platelike rest on which an electronic display is set; holding members extending from each one of the opposed longitudinal edges of the platelike rest to hold the edge part of the electronic display; fixing members extending from a back surface of the platelike rest for fixing the platelike rest on a circuit board; a pair of attachment members which are composed of projections formed on at least one of the holding members and the platelike rest, and insertion holes into which said projections are inserted; and engaging members comprising means for fixing the holding members to the platelike rest so as to be pivotally movable, and for engaging the holding members at the position where the electronic display is retained.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A fixation device for an electronic display which comprises: a flat platelike rest on which an electronic display is set; holding members extending from each one of the opposed longitudinal edges of the platelike rest to hold the edge part of the electronic display; fixing members extending from a back surface of the platelike rest for fixing the platelike rest on a circuit board; a pair of attachment members which are composed of projections formed on at least one of the holding members and the platelike rest, and insertion holes into which said projections are inserted; and engaging members comprising means for fixing the holding members to the platelike rest so as to be pivotally movable, and for engaging the holding members at the position where the electronic display is retained.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
A fixation device for an electronic display as claimed in claim 1, wherein the holding members are attached to the platelike rest in a manner so as to be freely mounted and demounted.
