Next, a Buddhist altar of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of a Buddhist altar showing one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view of the Buddhist altar of FIG. 1 in a state where a door is opened, FIG.
4 is a plan view of the altar of FIG. 1 and FIG. 5 is a plan view of the altar of FIG. 1 with a door open.

A Buddhist altar shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 has a main body 1 composed of a housing having an opening 1a formed at least on a front surface thereof, and door plates 2a and 2b for opening and closing the opening 1a of the main body 1.
And a double door 2 provided with Door plate 2
The rotation shafts 18 a and 2 b are vertically provided with a rotation shaft 18, and the rotation shaft 18 is rotatably supported by the main body 1.

The main body 1 includes a top plate 3, a pedestal portion 4, and a back plate 5
And a pair of side plates 6. In the present embodiment, since the front sides of the pair of side plates 6 are shorter, an opening 1a (see FIG. 5) extending from the front surface of the main body 1 to a part of the front side surface is formed.

A base plate 8 spaced upward from the pedestal portion 4 is fitted to an upper end of a front plate 9 in a space 7 inside the main body 1. On the base plate 8, for example, a tile A (see FIG. 2) or a Buddha image is placed. In front of front plate 9, incense burner B
(See FIG. 2). In the vicinity of the center on the rear side of the base plate 8, a back plate 12 is provided so as to stand out the tile A or the Buddha image placed on the base plate 8.

The height H of the main body 1 is about 40 ± 10 cm (preferably 40 cm), and the width W ₁ when the door 2 is closed is about 20 ± 5 cm (preferably 20 cm).
Depth D of about 20 ± 5cm (preferably 20cm)
It is. Therefore, it is made much smaller and more compact than the conventional Buddhist altar. Therefore, it is not necessary to have a dedicated space for placing the Buddhist altar inside the room, and the place can be freely selected. For example, it can be used or stored on a chest, a rack, a corner table, a sideboard, or the like.

As shown in FIG. 1, the Buddhist altar of the present embodiment is formed on a substantially smooth surface without gorgeous aesthetic treatment such as sculpture or gold leaf on the outer surfaces of the main body 1 and the door 2. As a whole, it is made with a very simple and modern design. Therefore, it is in harmony with the design of other furniture and the like arranged in the room, and does not spoil the image of the whole room.

As the door 2, various doors can be adopted, but the door plates 2a and 2b which open in the width direction of the main body 1 are opened.
A double door that is preferably used because it is close to the atmosphere of a three-way opening Buddhist altar of the highest class among conventional Buddhist altars and can be used without discomfort.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, the opening 1a of the main body 1 is formed so as to extend from the front surface of the main body 1 to at least the front side of both sides, and the respective door plates 2a and 2b of the door 2 are formed. if a shape bent in a substantially L shape in order to close the opening 1a of the main body 1, when using open the door panel 2a and 2b of the door 2, is very large width W ₂ (see FIG. 5) . As a result, when the door 2 is closed, the Buddhist altar can be stored compactly. However, when the door 2 is opened, the width becomes very wide, so that the appearance is improved and an appropriate solid feeling is obtained.

More specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, when a double door that simply closes the front surface of the main body 1 is considered, even if the door is opened, the width is only about twice the width W ₁ of the main body 1. Although it does not expand, in the case of a substantially L-shaped door 2 having a length of about one side W _1/2 shown in FIG. 5, when the door is opened, the width W ₁ of the main body ₁ is (1 + √2). ) Times (≒ 2.4 times).

Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 and FIG. 5, the inside of the door plates 2a and 2b of the door 2 has a flower C
Insertion part 13 in which an insertion hole 13a for inserting flower C is formed as a flower attachment part for attaching flower
Is provided, a flower C can be stored in the narrow space 7 in addition to the tile A and the incense burner B. That is, by providing the flower insertion portion 13, the limited space 7 for storing Buddhist accessories can be effectively used.

In particular, in the case of the flower inserting portion 13 of the present embodiment, the flower C can be easily and reliably held simply by inserting the flower C into the insertion hole 13a.

Moreover, since the inflorescence C inserted into the inflorescence insertion hole 13 has an inverted conical shape that becomes thinner downward, the inflorescence C can be more easily installed in the insertion hole, and the inflorescence can be more easily inserted. C can reliably be prevented from falling.

In this embodiment, the flower insertion portion is described as an example of the flower insertion portion. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the flower C may be mounted on the inner surface side of the door 2. Various modes can be adopted as long as the flower attachment portion can be made.

In this embodiment, magnets 14 and 15 are provided as holding members for holding the door 2 in the main body 1 in a closed state. The magnet 14 is embedded inside a contact plate 19 protruding from the lower surface of the top plate 3. Contact plate 1
Reference numeral 9 is disposed at a position where the door plates 2a and 2b in the closed state come into contact with each other. The magnet 15 is embedded at a position where the magnet 15 is attracted by the magnet 14 in a closed state on the inner surface of the door plate 2b.

When the door 2 is closed, first, the door plate 2a having no magnet is closed, and then the door plate 2b having the magnet 15 is closed, the groove 16 (see FIG. 5) formed in the door plate 2a and the door plate 2b are closed. The formed ridges 17 (see FIG. 5) are engaged, and the magnets 15 are attracted to the magnets 14 at the same time, so that both the door plates 2a and 2b are held in the closed state. In addition, instead of forming the groove 16 and the ridge 17, the door plate 2
a holding member such as a magnet for holding the
a and the contact plate 19.

In the present embodiment, a magnet conventionally used has been described as an example of a holding member that is easy to hold and release a door, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, other various holding members, for example, a combination of a protruding and retractable convex portion and a concave portion fitted with the convex portion may be employed.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, various illumination means 10 conventionally used are stored in a storage portion 11 provided at the upper end of the space portion 7 of the main body 1. I have. The lighting means 10 is embedded in the lower opening 11 a of the storage section 11. When the door 2 is opened and the Buddhist altar is used, when the lighting unit 10 illuminates the interior of the space 7, particularly the tablet A on the base plate 8, the tablet A shines even in the narrow space 7. Because you can see it, you can feel the majesty and appreciation of the same level as the conventional large Buddhist altar.

As the illuminating means 10, various illuminating means using a fluorescent lamp, a halogen lamp, a light emitting diode or the like other than the one using the incandescent lamp shown in FIG. 3 can be adopted.
