A display device includes a display panel in which a display screen and an indicator region are two-dimensionally arranged, an indicator substrate which is mounted with a light source component and which is arranged on a back face side of the display panel so as to face the indicator region but not to face the display screen, and a control substrate which is a separate part from the indicator substrate and on which a control circuit for the display screen is formed. The control substrate is arranged on the back face side of the display panel and arranged distant from the display panel than the indicator substrate, and the control substrate is arranged so as not to face at least a portion of each of the display screen and the indicator substrate.

Display device

A display device includes a device housing that is configured to be installed such that an occulted portion including a portion of a peripheral wall of the device housing is hidden from an observer of a display screen, and a slide attaching part that is moved to slide in a sliding direction from a non-occulted portion to the occulted portion and attached so as to cover a back side of the device housing. A slide receiving part including the device housing includes a fixed part provided at the occulted portion and an engaged part provided at the non-occulted portion, and the slide attaching part includes a fixing part provided at a portion corresponding to the occulted portion and configured to be fixed to the fixed part, and an engaging part provided at a portion corresponding to the non-occulted portion and configured to be engaged with the engaged part.

A display device includes a display panel that includes a first hole and a device housing that is configured such that the display panel is fastened and fixed to the device housing by a screw passed through the first hole and screwed into the screw hole. The display panel includes a display-side positioning part which is configured to fit to a portion of the device housing to perform positioning of the display panel with respect to the device housing and which includes the first hole, and the device housing includes a housing-side positioning part which is configured to fit to the display-side positioning part to perform the positioning and which includes a second hole formed so as to communicate with the first hole when the housing-side positioning part is fitted to the display-side positioning part.

A lighting structure for a meter device is provided to include a dial, a rotating shaft having a light transmitting property, which is provided in a back surface side of the dial and rotates by receiving a turning force from a motor, a light transmitting pointer which is provided integrally with a light transmitting pointer shaft having a hole formed in a base end part into which an end part of the rotating shaft is inserted and fixed and rotates along a surface of the dial, and a light source which outputs the illuminating lights incident on a base end part of the rotating shaft. The pointer shaft includes a first laterally light-dispersing unit formed with a recessed part recessed toward the light source in an end part over the hole for dispersing a part of the illuminating lights incident on the pointer shaft toward the dial.

Lighting structure for meter device

An illuminating structure of a meter apparatus illuminates an indicatorand a text panelwhile the indicatorrotates to indicate various kinds of information, wherein the rotary shafthas lateral light separating unit, formed with a dented portion toward a light source, at the front end surface of the front end portion thereof, and the lateral light separating unitpartially separates the illuminating light incident to the indicatortoward the text panel

Illuminating structure of meter apparatus

There is provided an indicator in which a moving memberon which a pointeris installed is caused to run on a guide railformed along a scale formed on a dial, characterized in that the moving membercomprises a first support memberfor pivotally supporting a plurality of pulleyswhich are arranged along the guide railand a second support memberfor pivotally supporting at least a pulley, and in that the plurality of pulleyspivotally supported on the first support memberand the pulleypivotally supported on the second support memberhold the guide railtherebetween and the first support memberand the second support memberare assembled to each other so as to slide in an inter-axis direction of the plurality of pulleyswhich are pivotally supported on the first support memberand the pulleywhich is pivotally supported on the second support member, the indicator having further a spring memberfor biasing the first support memberand the second support memberin a direction to reduce an inter-axis space therebetween.

Indicator having rotary members to hold guide rail

A transformer bobbin is provided comprising a frame of approximately a rectangular shape, a first wall arranged on one end of the frame, a second wall arranged on the other end of the frame, and a center wall arranged between the first wall and the second wall. The frame, the first wall, and the center wall constitute in combination a primary winding section. The frame, the center wall, and the second wall constitute in combination a secondary winding section. In particular, the primary winding section has a container case detachably mounted thereto for selective assignment for use. Also, the container is arranged for accommodating a current disconnecting means for deenergizing a transformer circuit when the coil temperature increases up to a limit level.
