Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a drawer or
The present invention relates to improvement of handles provided on front plates, sliding doors, doors, etc. of drawers in order to facilitate opening and closing of sliding doors and doors.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 3 shows an example of a conventional handle used for pulling out a drawer. For example, a finger is put on the flat plate portion b and its front surface by shaving from wood or molding metal plastic. The handle member c integrally formed with the handle h for fixing is fixed to the base material m which is the front plate of the drawer d, and the back surface of the handle member c and the front surface f of the base material m are bonded with an adhesive. However, in order to increase the adhesive strength, the adhesive area of the handle member c may be increased to increase the adhesive area, or a mounting member such as a nail may be used together.

However, if nails and the like are used in combination with the adhesive, not only extra material and therefore extra cost are required, but also it is necessary to attach nails and other fittings so as not to hurt the hand. Such problems arise.

In the conventional example of FIG. 3, the surface f of the base material m is
The handle member c is bonded to the handle member c. However, in this case, since the handle member c projects from the surface f of the base material m, the handle member c is
It is also possible to form a recess in the surface f of the base material m to which is adhered so that the flat plate portion b of the handle member c is flush with the surface f of the base material m.

Further, in FIG. 3 showing this conventional example, a recess for receiving a finger is provided in the handle h of the handle member c in order to pull out the drawer in the front direction, but a door or a sliding door is opened and closed. When used for this purpose, this recess is not provided because it is operated in the direction perpendicular to the handle.

[0006]

In the conventional technique for adhering the handle member to the base material with the adhesive as described above, for example, when pulling out the drawer, an object is caught or a sliding door is opened. If the slippage is bad,
There is a problem that a large force is applied between the handle member and the base material, the handle member is peeled off from, for example, the front plate of the drawer, or the handle member is removed from a sliding door or the like.

As described above, it is easy to remove the hook member by using a fitting such as a nail together with the adhesive or by fixing the hook member from the back surface of the base material with a screw or the like. Although the problem is solved, it causes problems such as not only the extra material and therefore the cost, but also the need to attach the fitting so as not to hurt the hand.

Therefore, the present invention not only prevents the handle member adhered to the base material from peeling off from the base material,
The object of the present invention is to obtain a handle that can withstand a large force applied to the handle, such as a case where an article is caught in a drawer or friction of a sliding door becomes large.

[0009]

The handle according to the present invention as set forth in claim 1 is as shown in FIG. 1, which is a principle embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a handle of a drawer.

From the above, the extension portions E1 and E2 are provided on both side edges respectively, and the extension portions E1 and E2 of the flat plate portion B are inserted into the insertion grooves S1 and S2 that are continuously provided on at least both side surfaces of the fitting recess P of the base material M, and It is characterized in that the back surface of the flat plate portion B and the front surface P ′ of the fitting recess P of the base material M are adhered to each other.

The "base material" described in each of the claims including the claim 1 is a member for attaching a handle such as a front plate of a drawer for opening and closing, a door, a sliding door, and the like. The "handle" is used for holding and operating the "base material" in order to facilitate the opening and closing of the "base material".

In the conventional example shown in FIG. 3 described above, when the handle h of the handle member c is pulled toward the front in order to pull out the drawer, all the pulling force bonds the handle member c to the base material m. Since it is applied to the bonded portion, the handle member c is easily peeled off from the base material m.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the extension recesses E1 and E2 are provided from one side T of the flat plate portion B of the handhold member C close to the handle H to both side edges, and the fitting recess of the base material M is provided. Since the extension portions E1 and E2 of the flat plate portion B are inserted into the insertion grooves S1 and S2 that are continuously provided on at least both side surfaces of P, this extension portion
The E1 and E2 and the insertion grooves S1 and S2 are directly engaged with each other, so that the force can be transmitted between the handhold member C and the base material M without interposing the adhesive portion.

Therefore, even if a strong pulling force is applied to the handle H when an article is caught in the drawer or the friction of the sliding door becomes large, the above-mentioned extension portions E1 and E2 of the handle member C are applied.
Since this pulling force is directly transmitted from the handhold member C to the base material M via the insertion grooves S1 and S2 of the base material M, a large force is not applied to the adhesive portion, and the handhold member C is transferred to the base material M. A special effect is obtained in that it does not come off or come off.

According to the invention described in claim 1,
A wide area handle member can be used, and this handle member itself becomes the design point of the article to which this handle is attached, and the material and color of this handle member can be used as the base material of the drawer front, door, etc. Effects such as different appearances and improved aesthetics can be obtained.

The handle according to the invention described in claim 2 is
As shown in the embodiment of FIG. 2, in the invention according to claim 1, the handle member Ca integrally provided with the handle Ha near one side of the flat plate portion Ba is close to the handle Ha of the flat plate portion Ba. From one side Ta (see Fig. 2 (b)) on both sides
Ea and Eb are provided, and the extension portions Ea and Eb of the flat plate portion Ba are inserted into the insertion grooves Sa and Sb that are continuously provided on both side surfaces of the fitting recess Pa of the base material Ma having the same shape as the flat plate portion Ba of the handle member Ca. It is characterized by inserting.

That is, according to the invention described in claim 2, the shape of the fitting recess P of the base material M in the invention described in claim 1 is the same as that of the flat plate portion B, and such fitting is performed. The shape of the fitting recess P specifies that the insertion groove is not provided at the lower edge of the fitting recess P.

According to the invention described in claim 2, since the shape of the fitting concave portion Pa of the base material Ma and the shape of the flat plate portion Ba of the handle member Ca are the same, the fitting concave portion of the base material Ma is Since it is not necessary to provide an insertion groove that is continuous with both side surfaces of the lower edge of Pa, not only dust does not enter this insertion groove, but also the insertion groove Sa provided on both side edges of the fitting recess Pa. , Sb may be provided only on the upper portion near the handle Ha as shown in FIG. 2, so that the effect of facilitating the processing for providing the handle member and the insertion groove can be obtained.

In FIGS. 1 and 2 cited in the description of the invention of claims 1 and 2, the handles H and Ha are used for putting fingers on the handles H and Ha in order to pull the drawer forward. Although the concave portion is provided on the lower surface thereof, it is not necessary to provide the concave portion when the handle of the present invention is used for opening and closing a door or a sliding door, as in the case of the conventional example.

According to the present invention, a handle member having a wide area can be used, and the handle member itself becomes a designing point of the article to which the handle is attached, and the material, color, etc. of the handle member can be selected. Different from the base material of the drawer front or door,
Further, it is possible to obtain the effect of improving the aesthetic appearance by arbitrarily selecting the shape.

In this embodiment, as is apparent from FIG. 1, the length of the flat plate portion B of the handle member C is made larger than the length of the fitting recess P of the base material M in the vertical direction. The lower edge forms an extension E3 that extends below the lower end of the fitting recess P, and the insertion groove S3 is continuously provided below the fitting recess P of the base material M. Since the portion E3 is inserted into the insertion groove S3 below the fitting recess P, the three extension portions E1, E2, E3 and the three insertion grooves S1, S2, S3 directly engage with each other, and the handle member C is inserted. It is possible to prevent a large force from being applied to the bonding portion that bonds the base material M to the base material M, and to more strongly prevent the handle member C from peeling off from the base material M.

In order to align the upper edge of the base material M and the upper edge of the handhold member C at the same height, the length of the flat plate portion B of the handhold member C is fitted from the upper edge of the base material M. The length to the bottom of the insertion groove S3 continuously provided below the recess P may be the same.
It will be apparent that the length of the flat plate portion B of the handle member C may be made slightly shorter than this in order to improve the processing accuracy.

Further, the base material M is provided with only the fitting recess P and the insertion grooves S1 and S2 on both edges, and the flat plate portion B of the handle member C is provided.
If the same shape as the shape of the fitting recess P and the extension portions E1 and E2 of both edges is formed, the entire surface of the fitting recess P of the base material M can be covered with the hook member C. The flat plate portion B of the member C is not touched by the operator so that the base material M is not contaminated due to hand marks or the like, and moreover, the fitting recess P in the above-described embodiment.
A special effect is obtained in that there is no concern that dust or the like will enter the gap between the insertion groove S3 that is continuously provided below the plate and the flat plate portion B of the handle member C that is inserted into this insertion groove S3.

In order to bond the hook member C to the base material M, after applying an adhesive to the back surface of the flat plate portion B, the flat plate portion of the hook member C is inserted into the insertion grooves S1, S2, S3. Insert the extension parts E1, E2, and E3, which are extended from B, respectively, and then flat plate part B
Should be pressurized almost vertically.

According to the present invention described in claim 1 and claim 2 which will be described later, since the handle member can be enlarged, the handle member itself becomes a design point of the article to which the handle is attached. By making the material and color of the handle member different from the base material such as the front surface of the drawer and the door, it is possible to obtain the effect of improving the aesthetic appearance of the article provided with the handle.

FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of the invention described in claim 2. FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b) are views showing the structure of a handhold member Ca, of which FIG. It is a plan view of the hanging member Ca and is a front view of the hanging member Ca seen from above in the figure (b). Furthermore, two kinds of sectional views of the hanging member Ca 'are shown on the right side of this figure (b). , Ca ”.

In the two cross-sectional views shown on the right side of this figure (b), the handle member Ca 'shown on the left side is suitable for pulling in the direction of the arrow (leftward in the figure) attached to the bottom of the figure. Handle Ha '

In this embodiment, similarly to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the extension portions Ea and Eb of the flat plate portion Ba of the handhold member Ca and the fitting recesses.
Since the insertion grooves Sa and Sb of Pa are engaged, the ability to prevent the adhesive from peeling off between the flat plate portion Ba of the handle member Ca and the surface Pa ′ of the fitting recess Pa is further enhanced. A special effect is obtained.

[0034]

According to the present invention, since the extension portion provided on the handle member is inserted into the insertion groove that is continuous with the fitting recess of the base member, a large force is applied to the handle of the handle member. Also, since the force is directly transmitted from the handhold member to the base material due to the engagement between the extension portion and the insertion groove, a large force is not applied to the adhesive portion, and the adhesion between the base material and the handhold member can be prevented from peeling off. A special effect is obtained.

Further, since a large handhold member can be used, not only can the flat plate portion prevent the base material from becoming dirty when the handle is gripped, but also the base material such as the front surface of the drawer or the door. As a result, the area where the handle member is adhered is widened, and the effect that the handle member is unlikely to come off or come off is obtained.

Furthermore, since the area of the handle member can be increased, the handle member itself becomes a designing point of the article to which the handle is attached, and the material and color of the handle member can be determined from the front surface of the drawer or the drawer. It is possible to obtain an effect that the appearance can be improved by making it different from a base material such as a door.
