Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is not only convenient for arranging in a free layout and rearranging the arrangement, but also enables one person to be able to stack in a compact laminated state even when stacking and storing. Related to a table used as a desk or table.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a single-person table having legs with casters on a relatively small top plate has been used in offices and schools. Since this table is small and lightweight, it can be moved by one person. Therefore, the table is useful in that the layout can be freely set according to a mode such as a meeting corner or a meeting.

However, most of the conventional small tables of this type are designed so that the rear left and right legs protrude from the left and right sides of the top plate in order to meet the demand for stacking. This is because the left and right legs on the front side of the top plate are stacked so as to be located forward of the front edge of the top plate,
Since the left and right legs on the rear side are laminated so as to straddle the left and right sides of the lower top plate, the left and right legs on the rear side must be provided outside the left and right widths of the top plate. This is because they cannot cross over.

However, even if the left and right legs protrude from the side of the tabletop, even if the rear legs, when the tables of the same specifications are arranged side by side in the left and right direction, they protrude from the left and right sides of the tabletop. Due to the legs, the adjacent top plates cannot be in close contact with each other, and there is a visual problem that a gap is created there, or because the top plates are not joined in series when used in conjunction,
There has been poor usability in that a writing implement or the like falls from a gap formed between the top plates.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, the present invention provides legs in such a manner that they do not protrude from the left and right sides of the top plate, so that when used side by side, the top plates are connected to each other in a tightly contacted form. It can be stacked and can be stacked over a top plate located below, and is also suitable for leading information lines and power supply lines from below the top plate to the top plate. It is an object of the present invention to provide a small table equipped with a table.

[0006]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a table according to the present invention has a structure in which cutouts are provided on the left and right sides of a substantially square top plate as viewed from a plane, and the tables are stacked. The rear left and right legs are provided so that the rear legs of the table located above when stacked are accommodated in the cutouts.

In the table according to the present invention, at least one of the front side and the rear side of the top plate may be formed as a curved side. The notch formed on the left and right sides of the top plate may be formed into a vertically divided half shape such as a substantially rectangular shape or an oval shape. Since a hole such as a circle is formed, the power supply line and the communication line can be drawn from the hole onto the top plate with good visibility.

In the table of the present invention, it is also possible to provide a panel body in the form of a curtain plate on the left and right front legs, provide a wiring duct also serving as a reinforcing penetrating material on the back surface thereof, and provide a power outlet and an information outlet on this duct. In this case, the power line and the information line of the terminal such as a personal computer used on the top board are plugged into the outlet through the notch on the side of the top board, so that the smart processing of these wirings can be performed. it can.
In addition, a shelf made of a light pipe or the like that can be folded to the curtain plate side may be arranged below the top plate. Also,
The four legs may be provided with at least two casters at the front or rear for convenience when moving.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment of the table according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a perspective view of an example in which the tables of the present invention are arranged in a horizontal line, FIG. 2 is a side view showing a main part of the table shown in FIG. 1 in a stacked state, and FIG. 3 is a plan view of the arranged tables in FIG. FIG. 4 is a plan view of another layout example of the table of the present invention.

In FIGS. 1 and 3, reference numeral 1 denotes a top plate having a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from a plane. In this example, a top plate having a wavy curved line 1a formed on a near side (lower side in FIG. 3). In the middle part of the left and right sides of the top plate 1, cutouts 2 and 3 each having a vertically-long rectangular shape bisected vertically are formed.

On the lower surface side of the top plate 1, front legs 4, 5 made of a pipe material or the like are provided on the left and right sides of the front side of the top plate 1 in a substantially vertical direction. Immediately after the notches 2 and 3, the rear legs 6, 7 which are curved in a shallow arch in the illustrated example are provided at an oblique angle toward the rear. When viewed from a plane, these legs 4, 5, 6, and 7 are within the plane projection shape of the top 1, and all the legs 4 to 7 protrude from the front, rear, left and right sides of the top 1. Not.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a curtain-shaped panel provided on the front legs 4 and 5, and a rear surface thereof is provided with a duct member 9 having a substantially U-shaped cross section for connecting the left and right front legs 4 and 5, and serves as a wiring duct and a reinforcing member. It is provided as a member. If desired, a power outlet and an information outlet can be arranged in the duct 8.

Numeral 10 designates a horizontal, pivotally supported by the duct member 9.
A shelf that can be folded vertically, here made of pipe material, is held horizontally when used, and folded in a vertical position parallel to the panel 8 when not in use. The shelf 10 may be made of a net material or a plate material in addition to the pipe material. The legs 4 to 7

That is, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the front legs 4 and 5 of the next table 1 are placed on one table T so as to cover the front sides of the front sides 4 and 5 of the lower table T. And the table T on which
The rear legs 6, 7 fit in the left and right cutouts 2, 3 in the top plate 1 of the lower table, and overlap with each other. Since it is stored in the concave portion formed by the cutouts 2 and 3 of the T and is laminated, even if the rear legs 6 and 7 are not formed so as to protrude from the left and right sides of the top plate 1, smart stacking can be performed. . The number of units that can be stacked is within a range in which the rear legs 6, 7 of the table T located above are overlapped in the front-rear direction within the vertical width of the cutouts 2, 3 of the lowermost top plate 1. In FIG. 2, three tables T are stacked and stacked.

FIG. 4 is a plan view showing a state in which four tables T of the present invention in which sides on the side facing the top 1 are formed in a straight line are assembled in an island shape. Since the legs 6 and 7 do not protrude from each other, each of the top plates 1 can be densely formed without gaps so as to form a single top plate with one table. Parts 2, 3
Since the hole H is formed by combining, the wiring of the terminal such as the personal computer used on the top plate can be smartly processed in and out.
