A chassis assembly for electric components having a main chassis provided with a plurality of recesses formed by projecting predetermined parts of the bottom wall outwardly. Each recess is provided with an aperture for receiving the corresponding leg of a sub-chassis carrying electric parts. The legs are inserted into and projected through the apertures and are then welded to the outside of the projected parts of the bottom wall of the main chassis. The alignment of the legs with the apertures is easily achieved and the heating of the projected parts is made in a shorter time to ensure an improved efficiency of the work and good productivity.

Chassis assembly

A coaxial connector characterized by comprising a main body which is attached to a terminal portion of an electric apparatus, a connecting member which is mounted on the main body and which receives a plug of a coaxial cable; and a spacer, a sealing rubber member and a cap which constitute an adapter, so that a coaxial connector can be formed by combining the main body and the connecting member or that an antenna stub penetrating through the sealing rubber member can be fixed to the main body watertightly by screwing the cap into the main body and sandwiching the sealing rubber member between this cap and the spacer inserted in the main body.

Multipurpose coaxial connector

A locked-type push-button device which has a plurality of push buttons and only one of the push buttons can be locked in the depressed state when it is depressed. A mechanism includes a cam for preventing the simultaneous locking of two adjacent push buttons, which has nearly a semicircular shape in cross section. The cam has notches at positions corresponding to the positions of the push buttons, and the notches each have a width greater than the width of the respective push buttons. The notches are alternately arrayed on opposite sides of the cam, and is thus urged to turn in the opposite directions when it is depressed by the neighboring push buttons.

A lock structure especially useful for locking a cabinet cover to a bottom plate makes it possible to integrate and separate the cabinet cover and the bottom plate quite easily, and also secures the cabinet cover and the bottom plate quite tightly to prevent any play between the two.

A miniature variable resistor comprising an insulating substrate provided with a hole therethrough. A resistance pattern which is carried on a front surface of the insulating substrate in a manner to surround the hole, and a hollow rotor of insulating synthetic resin is provided with an operating portion and a slidable contact portion slidable on the front surface. A slide member is unitarily embedded in the rotor and which has elastic protuberant pieces protruding into the hollow portion of the rotor, and a shaft member which protrudes beyond the hole from a rear surface of the insulating substrate is fitted tightly in the hollow portion of the rotor.
