BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cabinet provided with a screen which not only can store various things but also has a screen reasonably provided.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, at home, a larger screen image has been enjoyed using a projection screen used for projection, that is, a screen. When setting the screen, the screen is taken out from the storage place and attached to, for example, a tripod.

When the screen is set as described above, not only is it necessary to take out the screen from the storage place every time, but also the screen taken out does not adhere to the surface with dust and dirt. As it is wound up to reduce the storage space, the screen in the wound up state must be expanded and then attached to a tripod etc. and fixed. It took a lot of time to set the screen. On the other hand, when the screen set in the opposite direction is to be stored in the storage location, the screen must be removed from the tripod, wound up, and then moved to the storage location. It took time. Further, since the screen is not always displayed, a space for installing the screen must be provided in the room every time the screen is displayed, and the above-mentioned inconvenience may become more remarkable. Therefore, for example, furniture with a screen disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 2517372 solves the above-mentioned inconvenience. In this furniture with a screen, the screen can be set simply by winding and storing the screen in a storage box protruding forward at the top of the cabinet body, and pulling out the screen wound and stored in the storage box. It is like that.
