Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a synthetic resin drawer case for storing articles such as clothes and books.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a drawer case for accommodating clothes, books, etc. is made of a synthetic resin as shown in FIG.
And a drawer 2 made of synthetic resin which can be pulled out from the housing 1.

[0003]

However, in this conventional drawer case, since the drawer 2 is not provided with a lock mechanism, the drawer 2 pops out of the housing 1 during movement such as moving or carrying, There is a problem of rattling.

The object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems,
An object of the present invention is to provide a drawer case that can easily lock the drawer with respect to the housing.

[0005]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The present invention will be described in detail based on the embodiments shown in FIGS. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a drawer case according to the present embodiment, which includes a housing 11 made of a synthetic resin and a drawer 12, and a drawer-shaped pulling portion 13 is provided in the lower front portion of the drawer 12 for drawing the drawer 12. Has been. In addition, a lock member 14 that is capable of protruding is rotatably provided on the drawer surface 11 a of the housing 11 below the pull tab 13.

FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of the lock member 14. The lock member 14 is a rod-shaped body as a whole, an inclined portion 14a is formed on one side of the bottom portion, and left and right side surfaces 14b, 14c have different heights. . A pair of fulcrum portions 14d are provided on both sides of the substantially central portion of the lock member 14, a side provided with the inclined portion 14a is an operation portion 14e, and the other is a lock portion 14f for the drawer 12. Also, the lock portion 14
A rib 14g is formed horizontally in the lower part of the side surface 14b on the f side. Further, a concave portion 14h indicating a pressing position is provided on the upper surface of the operation portion 14e.

FIG. 3 shows an explanatory view of the lock mechanism, in which the housing 1
The pull-out surface 11a of No. 1 is provided with a rectangular recess 11b for housing the hollow lock member 14,
On the inner surface of the recessed portion 11b, a support portion 11c that supports the fulcrum portion 14d, a first engaging claw portion 11d that engages with a rib 14g provided on the side surface 14b of the lock member 14, and a side surface 14c.
A second engaging claw portion 11e that engages with is formed.

By fitting the fulcrum portion 14d into the support portion 11c, the lock portion 14 can rotate about the support portion 11c. In the unlocked state, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, by lowering the lock portion 14f, the lock member 14 becomes flush with the pull-out surface 11a. In this state, the rib 14g of the lock member 14 engages with the first engaging claw portion 11d of the housing 11, so that the lock member 14 is held in a stable state and the drawer 12 can be freely moved to the housing 11. You can put it in and take it out.

The recess 14 of the operating portion 14e of the lock member 14
By pressing h downward with a finger, the lock member 14 rotates about the fulcrum portion 14d, and the lock portion 14f can be projected from the pull-out surface 11a.

As a result, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the end surface 14c of the lock member 14 engages with the second engaging claw portion 11e, and the lock member 14 can stably maintain its locked state. Since the protruding lock portion 14f is located on the front surface of the drawer 12, the movement of the drawer 12 can be restricted, and the lock portion 14f acts as a lock function during transportation or the like.

In the present embodiment, one drawer 12 is illustrated, but a plurality of drawers 12 may be used. Further, the lock member 14 at that time is used for all the drawers 1.
It may be provided on the second drawer 2 or only on a specific drawer 12.

The position where the lock member 14 is provided is not limited to the lower part of the drawer 12 but may be the upper part or the side part of the drawer 12.

[0014]

As described above, the drawer case according to the present invention can prevent the drawer from popping out at the time of transportation in a locked state by providing the lock mechanism which is easy to operate.
