摘要

An electronic device movable in an insertion direction into a supporting member, in a state of being stacked on another electronic device, includes a first connector urged in a direction same as a removal direction in which the electronic device is removed from the supporting member, a housing that includes a connector housing and a guide for moving the first connector in the insertion direction or the removal direction, a second connector disposed at a position connectable to the first connector of the another electronic device, a holding member that causes the first connector to switch between a protruded and a retreated states with respect to the connector housing, and a guide rail that changes a position of the first connector in a placing direction in accordance with a position of the first connector in the insertion direction and the removal direction.

主权项

1. An electronic device available to be moved in an insertion direction into a supporting member to be stored in the supporting member in a state of being stacked on another electronic device, the electronic device comprising:
a first connector that is urged by an urging member, when the electronic device is in a state in which the electronic device is supported by the supporting member, in a direction same as a removal direction in which the electronic device is removed from the supporting member; a housing that includes a first plate, a second plate, a connector housing disposed in the first plate, and a guide disposed at the second plate side, the first plate and the second plate being disposed side by side in a placing direction in which the electronic devices are placed one on top of another, the connector housing including the first connector so that the first connector is movable in directions same as an insertion direction and the removal direction, respectively, the insertion direction being in a direction in which the electronic device is inserted into the supporting member, the guide contacting a first connector of another electronic device disposed nearby the electronic device and the guide moving the first connector of the another electronic device in the insertion direction or the removal direction; a second connector that is disposed at a position where the second connector is connectable to the first connector of the another electronic device, the first connector of the another electronic device facing an interior of the housing from the guide; a holding member that causes the first connector of the electronic device to switch between a protruded state and a retreated state with respect to the connector housing in accordance with a relationship between a position of the housing and a position of the supporting member; and a guide rail that changes a position of the first connector of the electronic device in a placing direction in accordance with a position of the first connector in the connector housing in the insertion direction and the removal direction, the placing direction being a direction in which the electronic device is stored in the supporting member.
