Abstract
A board 2 for a projector includes a movable arm 5 for moving a projector 1 to a use position in front of a projection board 3 and to a storage position above the projection board and a cam mechanism 6 for elevating the movable arm 5 while swinging it. By elevation of the movable arm 5 by the cam mechanism 6, when the projector is positioned at the storage position, a body portion of the projector is positioned above an upper edge portion of the projection board, while when the projector is positioned at the use position, the body portion is positioned below the upper edge portion of the projection board. Even a projector with a short focal distance can be moved to the storage position and to the use position.
Claims4
A board for a projector comprising a projection board on which an image radiated by a projector is projected, a holding member fixed to the projection board at an upper portion thereof, and a movable arm swingably provided on the holding member and configured to move the projector horizontally to a use position in front of the projection board from a storage position above the projection board, characterized in that:
- a cam mechanism for vertically elevating the movable arm while swinging the arm horizontally with respect to the holding member is provided above the projection board;
- and
- by means of elevation of the movable arm by the cam mechanism, when the projector is positioned at the storage position, the body portion of the projector is positioned above an upper edge portion of the projection board, while when the projector is positioned at the use position, the body portion is positioned below the upper edge portion of the projection board, characterized in that:
- the cam mechanism is constituted by a cam follower provided on the movable arm and a cam member provided on the projection board and on which an inclination portion with which the cam follower is brought into contact from above is formed;
- a flat portion is provided at a position adjacent to a lower end portion of the inclination portion in the cam member;
- and
- when the projector is positioned at a use position, the cam follower is positioned at the flat portion and allows swinging of the movable arm within a range in which the flat portion is formed.

- a cam mechanism for elevating the movable arm while swinging the arm with respect to the holding member is provided;
- by means of elevation of the movable arm by the cam mechanism, when the projector is positioned at the storage position, the body portion of the projector is positioned above an upper edge portion of the projection board, while when the projector is positioned at the use position, the body portion is positioned below the upper edge portion of the projection board;
- a sensor unit for detecting contact with the projection board is provided inside an edge portion surrounding an outer periphery of the projection board and substantially at a center of an upper part of the edge portion, and a detection range by the sensor unit is set below the sensor unit and inside the edge portion;
- and
- when the projector is positioned at the use position, the projection range of the image by the projector is positioned inside the detection range of the sensor unit.
