Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In an elevator operation panel, a base of a casing includes a back plate portion, a lateral plate portion, and a vertical plate portion. An outer surface of the lateral plate portion, which faces the exterior of the casing, and a vertical direction end surface of the vertical plate portion on the lateral plate portion side are disposed in an identical plane. An L-shaped slit is provided between the back plate portion and the lateral plate portion. The slit includes a rectilinear portion, and a projecting portion that projects into the back plate portion. In a condition where the lateral plate portion is bent relative to the back plate portion, a surface of the lateral plate portion that faces the rectilinear portion overlaps a surface of the back plate portion on an opposite side to a wall.

First claim

The invention claimed is: 1. An elevator operation panel, comprising a casing having a base and a cover joined to the base, wherein the base includes a back plate portion fixed to a wall, a lateral plate portion projecting at a right angle toward the cover side from a vertical direction end portion of the back plate portion, and a vertical plate portion projecting at a right angle toward the cover side from a width direction end portion of the back plate portion, the back plate portion, the lateral plate portion, and the vertical plate portion are formed by bending a single flat plate, an outer surface of the lateral plate portion, which faces the exterior of the casing, and a vertical direction end surface of the vertical plate portion on the lateral plate portion side are disposed in an identical plane, an L-shaped slit is provided between the back plate portion and the lateral plate portion, the slit includes a rectilinear portion provided to extend in a width direction of the lateral plate portion from a width direction end portion of the lateral plate portion on the vertical plate portion side, and a projecting portion that projects into the back plate portion from an end portion of the rectilinear portion on an opposite side to the vertical plate portion, and in a condition where the lateral plate portion is bent relative to the back plate portion, a surface of the lateral plate portion that faces the rectilinear portion overlaps a surface of the back plate portion on an opposite side to the wall. 2. An elevator operation panel, comprising a casing having a base and a cover joined to the base, wherein the base includes a back plate portion fixed to a wall, a lateral plate portion projecting at a right angle toward the cover side from a vertical direction end portion of the back plate portion, and a vertical plate portion projecting at a right angle toward the cover side from a width direction end portion of the back plate portion, the back plate portion, the lateral plate portion, and the vertical plate portion are formed by bending a single flat plate, an outer surface of the vertical plate portion, which faces the exterior of the casing, and a width direction end surface of the lateral plate portion on the vertical plate portion side are disposed in an identical plane, an L-shaped slit is provided between the back plate portion and the vertical plate portion, the slit includes a rectilinear portion provided to extend in a vertical direction from a vertical direction end portion of the vertical plate portion on the lateral plate portion side, and a projecting portion that projects into the back plate portion from an end portion of the rectilinear portion on an opposite side to the lateral plate portion, and in a condition where the vertical plate portion is bent relative to the back plate portion, a surface of the vertical plate portion that faces the rectilinear portion overlaps a surface of the back plate portion on an opposite side to the wall.
