Abstract
This camera is a camera having a compartment for loading and storing various members with a predetermined sheet member attached along the inner wall face of the compartment, in which the sheet member is attached at a predetermined position by a very easy and inexpensive means while assuring good operability during the assembly operation and the disassembly operation, comprising a camera main body where an aperture section is formed at a visible position and a sheet member which is attached by elastic deformation without gluing for covering the aperture section, to be attached/removed easily. With such construction, a camera which can contribute to making the manufacturing process efficient and decreasing the manufacturing cost can be provided.
Claims20
A camera comprising:
- a camera main body where an aperture section is formed at a visible position;
- and a sheet member for covering said aperture section, which is attached by elastic deformation without gluing, so as to be easily attached/removed.
A camera, comprising:
- a wall section the inner face of which is formed to have a substantially curved shape;
- a sheet member which has elasticity and is attached so as to closely contact along the inner face of said wall section;
- and a holding section which is disposed on the inner face of said wall section and holds the both ends of said sheet member opposing the resilience of said elastically deformed sheet member.
A camera having a compartment for loading and storing members, comprising:
- a wall section the inner face of which is formed to have a substantially curved shape to constitute said compartment;
- a sheet member which has elasticity and is attached so as to closely contact along the inner face of said wall section of said compartment;
- and a holding section which is disposed on the inner face of said wall section of said compartment and holds the both ends of said sheet member opposing the resilience of said elastically deformed sheet member.
A camera having a compartment for loading members, comprising:
- a sheet member which has a resilience and constitutes a part (surface) exposed outside the inner wall face of said compartment by being attached on the inner wall face of said compartment;
- and a holding means which is disposed on the inner wall face of said compartment for holding the both ends of said sheet member, wherein said sheet member is curled along said inner wall face, and said sheet member is attached and secured to said compartment by holding and controlling the resilience generated by curling said sheet member using said holding means.
A camera having a compartment for loading members, comprising:
- a camera main body where an aperture section or a convex/concave section is formed on the inner wall face of said compartment;
- a sheet member which has a resilience to return the curled state to the initial state, and constitutes a part of the inner wall of said compartment by being attached to the inner wall face of said compartment so as to cover said aperture section or convex/concave section;
- and two control holding members which are disposed on the inner wall face of said compartment respectively so as to correspond to the both ends of said sheet member, and control and hold the position of said sheet member by abutting on the both ends of said sheet member;
- wherein when said sheet member is curled and attached along said inner wall face, said sheet member is secured in the state of being curled in said compartment by controlling and holding the resilience generated by curling said sheet member using said control holding member.
A camera having a compartment for loading members, comprising:
- a camera main body where an aperture section is formed on the inner wall face of said compartment;
- a sheet member which has a resilience to return the curled state to the initial state and constitutes a part of the inner wall of said compartment by being attached to the inner wall face of said compartment so as to cover said aperture section;
- two control holding sections which are disposed on the inner wall face of said compartment respectively so as to correspond to the both ends of said sheet member., and control and hold the position of said sheet member by abutting on both ends of said sheet member;
- and a receiving face section which is formed on the inner wall face of said compartment and between said two control holding sections for abutting on and receiving the surface of said sheet member;
- wherein when said sheet member is curled and attached along said inner wall face, said sheet member is secured in the state of being curled in said compartment by controlling and holding the resilience generated by curling said sheet member using said control holding sections and said receiving face section.
