Electronic apparatus
View Patent ↗In an electronic apparatus having a touch panel and a chassis for supporting the touch panel, pair of fixing cushions are fixed to the touch panel along edges, which are parallel to each other, of the touch panel. Pair of vibration absorbing cushions are fixed to the chassis parallel to each other. A fixing flame is disposed between the touch panel and the chassis and fixed to the fixing cushions and the vibration absorbing cushions. Thus, the touch panel is supported against the chassis by the fixing cushions, the fixing frame and the vibration absorbing cushions. When the touch panel vibrates, the vibration absorbing cushions prevent transmission of the vibration from the touch panel to the chassis through fixing cushions and the fixing frame. Accordingly, the vibration of the touch panel hardly exercises a harmful influence on components mounted on the chassis.
1. An electronic apparatus comprising
a flat vibrating body having a rectangular shape;
a chassis used for supporting said vibrating body;
a fixing frame disposed between said vibrating body and a chassis;
a pair of vibrating elements fixed to said flat vibrating body along one of two pairs of parallel edges of said flat vibrating body to bend said vibrating body;
a pair of fixing cushions located between said flat vibrating body and said fixing frame and held to said vibrating body and said fixing frame along the other of said two pairs of parallel edges of said flat vibrating body to serve as a fulcrum for bending vibration of said vibrating body; and
a pair of vibration absorbing cushion located between said fixing frame and said chassis to be parallel to said fixing cushions and held to said fixing frame and said chassis, wherein
said vibration absorbing cushions suppresses transmission of vibration from said fixing frame to said chassis.
2. An electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said vibrating body comprises a touch panel.
3. An electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , further comprises a liquid crystal display panel held to said chassis.
4. An electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said at least one vibration absorbing cushion is softer than said at least one fixing cushion.
