SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and has a notebook computer which is placed flat on a desk and is pulled out only at the time of use to perform an input operation. The purpose of the present invention is to propose a mounting table that can stably perform the above. It is another object of the present invention to provide a notebook computer mounting table in which the desk area can be effectively used with a very simple configuration.

[0007]

According to the present invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a base and a top plate which is slidable back and forth on the base are provided as a mounting table for a notebook computer. Means were adopted.

As a more specific configuration, guide rails are provided on both left and right sides of a square plate-shaped base, and a plurality of slide rails are provided in the front-rear direction of an inner concave portion of the base. A means is used in which a top plate having guide grooves on both sides is overlapped on the base and the slide rail and the bottom surface of the top plate are slidable.

In the notebook computer mounting table of the present invention having the above structure, the top plate on which the computer is mounted slides freely back and forth on the slide rail while being guided by the guide rail through the guide groove. The computer can be pulled out to work at the location.

At this time, a means for providing a puller at the front of the top plate and a means for providing a finger hook at the front side of the top plate are employed.

[0011] The top plate can be easily pulled out by using a pull handle or a finger hook.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A preferred embodiment of a mounting table of a notebook computer according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a mounting table according to the present invention, showing a state in which a top plate described below is pulled out halfway, FIG. 2 is a central cross-sectional view of the mounting table, and FIG. . In each of the figures, reference numeral 1 denotes a base, and 2 denotes a top plate which is superimposed on the base 1 and slides on the base 1 in the front-rear direction, and has a size on which a notebook computer can be placed. The base 1 and the top plate 2 are both made of synthetic resin. The base 1 has a substantially square dish shape, but has guide rails 3 and 3 projecting in the horizontal direction over the entire length of the left and right edges as shown in FIG. A plurality (four in the figure) of slide rails 4, 4,... Are provided in the inner recess of the base 1 at predetermined intervals in the front-rear direction. The height of the slide rail 4 protrudes higher than the upper surface of the guide rail 3, and the lower surface of the top plate 2 slides on the upper end surface of the slide rail 4. In this case, it is very slippery because of the contact between the synthetic resins. Rubber feet 5, 5,... Having a large coefficient of friction are provided at the four corners of the lower surface of the base 1 to prevent the base from slipping.

The top plate 2 has a flat upper surface on which a notebook computer can be placed, and a pair of guide grooves formed in a U-shaped cross section over the entire length on the lower surface of the left and right edges. 6 and 6. The guide grooves 6 are fitted to the guide rails 3 of the base 1 to guide the top plate 2 when the top plate 2 is slid, thereby preventing the top plate 2 from moving up, down, left and right. A handle 7 having a concave portion 7a at the center is extended from the front edge of the top plate 2, and a finger hook 8 composed of a number of ridges is also provided at the front side of the left and right edges. Further, a stopper 9 protrudes from the rear end of the lower surface of the top plate 2 to prevent the top plate 1 from being pulled out.

The mounting table of the notebook computer according to the present invention having the above-described configuration is installed behind a desk, and the notebook computer is mounted on the top plate 2 of the notebook computer. Thereby, the front part of the desk can be widely secured as a work place.
When the computer is used, the top plate 2 is pulled out by using the puller 7 of the top plate 2 or the right and left finger hooks 8. At this time, since the base 1 is set on the desk with the rubber feet 5 having a large coefficient of friction, the base 1 is fixed on the desk, and only the top plate 2 on which the computer is mounted slides forward. The keyboard can be pulled out to a desired position where the keyboard can be easily operated. Further, since the stopper 9 is provided at the rear end of the lower surface of the top plate 1, the stopper 9 is locked at the front end of the base 1, and the top plate 2 is not pulled out. Furthermore, after using the computer, if the top plate 2 is pushed in again in the depth direction, it returns to the original position, and the front part of the desk is widely opened. By these operations, the desk area can be effectively used.

In the above embodiment, the base 1 has a square dish shape, a predetermined depth, and is partitioned by the slide rail 4, so that the base 1 is used as a storage space for writing tools such as pens and small office articles. It is also possible. Also,
As another mode, the pull 7 at the front of the top plate 2 may be formed in a box shape with a bottom and used similarly as a storage box for small items.

[0016]

As described above, since the mounting table of the notebook computer according to the present invention is provided with the top plate slidably back and forth on the square dish-shaped base, the computer cannot be used. When used, it can be installed at the back of the desk so that the front of the desk can be used widely. In addition, when using a computer, the computer can be pulled out to any operating position simply by pulling the top plate toward the front, which makes it easy to switch between office work and computer operation, improving office work efficiency. This is an extremely excellent effect. At this time, the top plate is guided by the guide rails, so that there is no left and right deviation and the computer can be operated stably.

Also, since it has a very simple structure consisting of a base and a top plate sliding on the base, it can be manufactured at low cost.
Since no casters or the like are used, the overall height can be reduced, so that there is an advantage that the keyboard input operation can be used without discomfort.
