JP 59-230503 A

The above-described cabinet wire processing method as described above has a problem in that there are many constituent members, the processing is troublesome, and the cost is high.
In addition, if a method of hiding the electric wire with Plamol or the like is employed, environmental problems arise because the material of Plamol is vinyl chloride.

The present invention has been devised in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, is environmentally friendly, reduces cost, and provides a cabinet that can process wires in a clean state and a wire processing method in the cabinet. According to the first aspect of the present invention, a groove for winding the electric wire and the cord is formed on the inner surface of the cabinet, and a buffer member is provided in the groove.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, the groove is provided at a corner portion where the plate constituting the cabinet contacts with the plate.
According to a third aspect of the present invention, the groove is provided in a corner portion where the plate constituting the cabinet and the wall surface abut.
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the buffer member is not provided at the bent portion of the groove.
According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, a groove is formed on the inner surface of the cabinet, a buffer member is provided in the groove, and an electric wire is wound around the groove, and is sandwiched between the buffer members and fixed in the groove.
According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, the twisted portion of the electric wire is pushed into and stored in the bent portion without providing the buffer member in the bent portion of the groove.

  In the present invention, a groove is formed on the inner surface of the cabinet, a buffer member is provided in the groove, an electric wire is wound around the groove, and is sandwiched between the buffer members and fixed in the groove. It is only necessary to form a groove on the surface, so that the processing cost can be reduced. Also, the component member may be only a buffer member, and it is well inserted into the buffer member and fixed in the groove, so that the cost is reduced to a neat state. Thus, the electric wire can be processed, and the electric wire is not exposed in the space in the cabinet, so that the inside of the cabinet can be widely used.

  In addition, since the buffer member is not provided in the bent portion of the groove and the twisted portion of the electric wire is pushed into and stored in the bent portion, the twisted portion of the electric wire can be hidden in the bent portion, and the neat state is maintained. An electric wire can be processed.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective configuration diagram when an upper cabinet without a back plate is installed on a wall surface of a toilet room.
The cabinet 1 is constructed by assembling a bottom plate 2, left and right side plates 3, 3 and a top plate 1a in a box shape with an open front, and left and right doors T, T on the front, and a back plate is present. Instead, the bottom plate 2, the left and right side plates 3, 3 and the rear end surface of the top plate 1a are placed in contact with the wall surface 4 of the toilet room.
An illuminator R is provided on the lower surface of the bottom plate 2 of the cabinet 1, and in order to supply power to the illuminator R, an electric wire 6 is connected to the interior of the cabinet 1 from a power plug P inserted into an outlet of the upper wall surface 4. Has been drawn into.

As shown in the enlarged view of the main portion in FIG. 2, the corner portions of the cabinet 1 that contact the bottom wall 2 and the inner wall 4 of the rear end surface of the side plate 3 are notched in advance in an L-shape to form grooves 2a and 3a. Each is formed.
Further, the buffer member 5 is attached in the groove 2 a of the bottom plate 2 and the groove 3 a of the side plate 3. That is, the buffer member 5 is attached to the grooves 2a and 3a by sticking or the like.
The buffer member 5 is formed of a material such as urethane foam, acrylic foam, or silicon.

For example, as shown in the sectional view on the bottom plate 2 side in FIG. 3, in a state where the buffer member 5 is attached to the groove 2 a, a gap S is formed between the rear end surface of the bottom plate 2 and the rear end surface of the buffer member 5. It is constructed, and the rear end surface of the bottom plate 2 is brought into contact with the wall surface 4, and the electric wire 6 is inserted into the gap S from the inside so as not to be twisted, and as shown in FIG. The electric wire 6 can be sandwiched and fixed between the buffer members 5.
That is, the electric wire 6 can be wound along the groove 2a, and the electric wire 6 can be sequentially pushed into the gap S and fixed in the groove 2a.

FIG. 5 is an operation explanatory view in which the electric wire 6 is first fitted and fixed in the groove 2a of the bottom plate 2 of the cabinet.
Next, the electric wire 6 is not twisted and is put in the groove 3a of the side plate 3, and the electric wire 6 is sequentially pushed into the gap S of the groove 3a of the side plate 3 as shown in FIG. The electric wire 6 can be fixed by being sandwiched between the wall surfaces 4.
In this case, for example, in the case of an electric wire 6 having an elliptical cross section, if the wiring is made by bending 90 ° from the bottom plate 2 to the side plate 3, a twisted portion 6a is inevitably formed in the electric wire. As shown in FIG. 7, 6a can be brought into the bent portion C of the grooves 2a and 3a of the bottom plate 2 and the side plate 3, and the twisted portion 6a can be pushed into the bent portion C to be concealed.

In addition, the buffer member 5 is not inserted into the bent portion C, and the twisted portion 6a is pushed directly into the grooves 2a and 3a in the bent portion C, so that the twisted portion 6a is satisfactorily accommodated in the bent portion C. The wires 6 can be wired in a clean state. In this state, when the inside is viewed from the front side of the cabinet, the wires 6 are hidden and a large space in the cabinet is secured, which is excellent. Designability is obtained.
In addition, in the case of the electric wire 6 and the cord having a circular cross section, the bent portion C can be bent and stored with a large R, and the burden on the electric wire 6 and the cord can be reduced.

  In this example, since a vinyl chloride material such as plasticol is not used to hide the electric wire 6, it becomes environmentally friendly, and the constituent member is only the buffer member 5, and the bottom plate 2 and the side plate 3 have grooves. Since only 2a and 3a are processed, the processing cost is low and the number of constituent members is also small, and the electric wire processing of the cabinet can be performed satisfactorily at a reduced cost.

In addition, in this example, although the case where the cabinet 1 without a backplate is installed in the wall surface of a toilet room is illustrated, the same electric wire process is performed also in the cabinet 1 installed in the wall surface of a kitchen, a washroom, etc. It can be done.
Further, the present invention can be applied not only to the cabinet 1 without the back plate but also to the cabinet 1 having the back plate, and the grooves 2a and 3a are provided at the corner portions where the bottom plate 2 and the side plate 3 are in contact with the back plate. The wire can be processed. Further, the grooves 2a and 3a may be provided on the bottom plate 2, the left and right side plates 3 and 3, and the top plate 1a, or on the bottom plate 2, the left and right side plates 3 and 3, and the top plate 1a. You may provide in any position of the inner surface of the cabinet 1 not only the corner | angular part which a rear-end surface contact | abuts.

It is the perspective block diagram which installed the cabinet without a backplate in the wall surface of a toilet room. It is a perspective block diagram before processing an electric wire between the bottom plate which comprises a cabinet, the rear-end surface of a side plate, and a wall surface. It is operation | work explanatory drawing which puts an electric wire in the clearance gap between the buffer member provided in the rear-end part of the baseplate, and a wall surface.
