Abstract
An extension device is engaged in a connector provided on one side of a lower case of a cabinet of an PIP apparatus PI. An adjustable foot is provided on the bottom surface to adjust the extension device and the cabinet in height. Therefore, the cabinet can be horizontally placed on a plane. When the extension device is approximately equal in height to the lower case , the adjustable foot is retracted into the lower case . Therefore, the thickness of the PIP apparatus PI can be minimized.
