DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[0001] The present invention relates to a desk machine. More specifically, the present invention relates to a desk that can be folded and stored and carried in a compact state when not in use.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a Buddhist monk reads a sutra in front of a Buddha in a temple or at home, a desk is widely used for placing sutras, incense sticks, candles, matches, and the like.

[0003] However, conventional desk machines are not foldable, and therefore require a large storage space when not in use. For example, when the storage space is small, such as in an apartment complex, it is difficult to secure a storage space. Due to the desk, it may not be possible to store other items to be stored, or the living space may be narrowed.
In addition, because of the bulkiness, when a person passes through a narrow passage with a desk, the legs may hit the wall or the like, causing damage to the legs or the wall.

[0004] In view of the circumstances described above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a desk which can be folded up when not in use to save storage space and to be easily carried.

[0005]

The desk machine of the present invention comprises three parts. These parts are connected by a hinge so as to be foldable, and a pair of legs for supporting the top plate. A groove for sliding a leg portion is formed on the back surface of the top plate, and a slide member slidable in the groove is provided at one end of the leg portion. It is characterized by:

[0006] Further, two grooves may be formed, and the two grooves may be parallel to each other.

[0007] A top plate fixing member which is rotatable and can be fixed at a desired position may be provided at a central portion of the top plate.

Further, a leg fixing bolt which can be screwed with a female screw provided on the back surface of the top plate may be attached to the leg.

A magnet is provided on one of the side surface of the leg portion and the back surface of the top plate, and the other is provided with one of a magnet and a magnetic material. Is also good.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a machine according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a desk machine according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a partial sectional front view of the desk machine shown in FIG.
3 is a bottom view of the desk machine shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of a stored state of the desk machine shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 5 is a partial cross-sectional side view of the desk machine shown in FIG.

[0012] As shown in FIG.
Is composed of a top plate 2 that can be folded into three, and a pair of left and right legs 3 that support it. Each part of the top plate is hingedly connected by a hinge.

As shown in FIG. 2, a leg sliding groove 4 having a substantially C-shaped cross section parallel to each other is formed on the back surface of the top plate 1.
Are formed. That is, the leg sliding groove 4 is wider at the back than at the entrance side (downward in FIG. 2), and a large-diameter portion at the tip of a slide member, which will be described later, fits into this wide portion and does not come off. It has become.

Each of the pair of legs 3 is composed of two legs 3a and a side plate 5 connecting the two legs. A slidable slide member 6 is provided. This slide member 6
At its tip, a large diameter portion 6a having a size larger than the width of the entrance side of the leg sliding groove 4 is provided, and the vicinity of the end opposite to the tip is screwed to the side surface of the leg 3a. I have. In the center of the side plate 5, a hole through which a leg fixing bolt 9 can be inserted is formed. The leg 3 is provided with a female screw portion 11 formed on the back surface of the top plate 2. Can be fixed to the top plate 2.

A square bar-shaped top plate fixing member 7 is attached to a central portion of the top plate 2 by a top plate fixing member fixing bolt 8. The top plate fixing member 7 is longer than the width of the central portion of the top plate 1 as shown in FIG.
By adjusting the top plate fixing member fixing bolt 8, it can be fixed at a desired position.

[0016] Magnets 10a and 10b are provided on the side surface of the leg 3a and the back surface of the top plate 2, respectively. The top plate 2 is fixed to the leg portion 3 when the top plate 2 is folded as described later. It is supposed to be. In this embodiment, both magnets are provided, but either one may be a magnetic material such as iron.

Next, a method of accommodating a desk according to the present embodiment will be described.

First, the top plate fixing member fixing bolt 8 is loosened, and the top plate fixing member 7 is rotated so as to be parallel to the short side of the top plate 2, and the top plate fixing member fixing bolt 8 is again rotated.
To fix the top plate fixing member 7. Then, the leg fixing bolt 9 is removed, and the leg 3 is slid along the leg sliding groove 4 toward the center of the top plate 2 until it comes into contact with the side surface of the top plate fixing member 7. Fold 2 The folded top plate 2 is fixed by magnets 10a and 10b provided on the side surfaces of the legs and the back surface of the top plate.

When using a desk, the reverse operation may be performed.

[0020]

Since the desk of the present invention can be folded compactly, it is easy to secure a storage place when not in use. In addition, when the magnets are provided on the top plate and the legs, the folded top plate is fixed to the legs, and the folded top plate does not open on its own, which is convenient for carrying.
