Panel for devices

Abstract

A panel constitutes a part of an exterior of a device. The panel includes a first panel member having a first one end, and a second panel member having a second one end. At least part of the second one end is located to be overlapped with at least part of the first one end of the first panel member. The panel includes a biasing attachment that biases the overlapped parts between the first one end of the first panel member and the second one end of the second panel member in an overlap direction so as to attach the overlapped parts.

1 . A panel constituting a first surface exposed on an exterior of a device, the panel comprising:
 a first panel member having a first one end;   a second panel member having a second one end, at least part of the second one end being located to be overlapped with at least part of the first one end of the first panel member; and   a biasing attachment that biases the overlapped parts between the first one end of the first panel member and the second one end of the second panel member in an overlap direction so as to attach the overlapped parts.   
   
   
       2 . A panel constituting first surface exposed on an exterior of a device, the panel comprising:
 a first panel member having a first one end;   a second panel member having a second one end, at least part of the second one end being located to be overlapped with at least part of the first one end of the first panel member; and   a biasing attachment having a surface opposing the overlapped parts between the first one end of the first panel member and the second one end of the second panel member, the biasing attachment biasing, via the surface, the overlapped parts between the first one end of the first panel member and the second one end of the second panel member in an overlap direction so as to attach the overlapped parts,   wherein the first panel member is formed at its other end portion opposing the overlapped parts with a first panel bend portion, the first panel bend portion being bent at a substantially right angle relative to the first surface toward a direction of the housing, being overlapped with a second surface of the housing orthogonal to the first surface thereof, and being fixed to the housing, and the second panel member is formed at its other end portion opposing the overlapped parts with a second panel bend portion, the second panel bend portion being bent at a substantially right angle relative to the first surface toward a direction of the housing, being overlapped with the second surface of the housing orthogonal to the first surface thereof, and being fixed to the housing.   
   
   
       3 . The panel according to  claim 2 , wherein the biasing attachment comprises a biasing attachment bend portion bent at a substantially right angle toward a direction of the housing so as to be fixed to the housing. 
   
   
       4 . The panel according to  claim 3 , wherein the biasing attachment has an L shape. 
   
   
       5 . The panel according to  claim 2 , wherein the biasing attachment bends, at a substantially right angle, the surface opposing the overlapped parts from any one surface of the housing orthogonal to the first surface thereof so as to extend the surface. 
   
   
       6 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the biasing attachment comprises a plate member located opposing the first and second panel members, and the plate member comprises a mounting boss formed to abut on the overlapped parts, and the biasing attachment further comprises a fixing member that fixes the overlapped parts and the mounting boss abutting thereon at a point. 
   
   
       7 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the overlapped parts are so concaved relative to surfaces of the first and second panel members as to be formed as a concaved groove. 
   
   
       8 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the overlapped parts extend in a predetermined direction, and the overlapped parts are formed with a slit extending in the predetermined direction. 
   
   
       9 . The panel according to  claim 7 , wherein the first one end of the first panel member is bent toward the housing at a substantially right angle to provide a first overlap surface, the second one end of the second panel member is bent toward the housing at a substantially right angle to provide a second overlap surface, and the first overlap surface and the second overlap surface are overlapped with each other to provide the concaved groove.
