Abstract
An electronic apparatus includes: a front panel provided at a front surface of apparatus main body; and a holding mechanism that detachably holds the front panel against the apparatus main body. The holding mechanism has engaging member formed in one of the front panel and the apparatus main body and engaged member formed in the other of the front panel and the apparatus main body, and the engaging member and the engaged member are each provided with a connection terminal so that the engaged member is engaged with the engaging member to electrically connect the front panel and the apparatus main body together via the connection terminal.
Claims8
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a front panel provided at a front surface of apparatus main body;
- and
- a holding mechanism that detachably holds the front panel against the apparatus main body,
- wherein the holding mechanism has engaging member formed in one of the front panel and the apparatus main body and engaged member formed in the other of the front panel and the apparatus main body, and
- the engaging member and the engaged member are each provided with a connection terminal so that the engaged member is engaged with the engaging member to electrically connect the front panel and the apparatus main body together via the connection terminal.
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a plate that can move between a position at which the plate is electrically connected to the apparatus main body to cover the front surface of the apparatus main body and a position at which the plate opens the front surface, a front panel;
- and a holding mechanism that detachably holds the front panel against the plate,
- wherein the holding mechanism has engaging member formed in one of the front panel and the plate and engaged member formed in the other of the front panel and the plate, and
- the engaging member and the engaged member are each provided with a connection terminal so that the engaged member is engaged with the engaging member to electrically connect the front panel and the apparatus main body together via the connection terminal.
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a front panel provided at a front surface of apparatus main body;
- a holding mechanism that detachably holds the front panel against the apparatus main body;
- and
- a communication device for transmitting an electric signal between the front panel and the apparatus main body by short distance radio communication,
- wherein if the front panel is held against apparatus main body by the holding mechanism, a transmission path for electric signals based on the short distance radio communication is established between the front panel and the apparatus main body through the communication device.
