It is also possible to place food, dishes, and other items such as cooking utensils and tableware temporarily, especially in places with relatively limited space, such as electric lift cabinets. It is an object of the present invention to realize a dish rack having a simple configuration and a cabinet equipped with the dish rack.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by forming a side surface on both sides in which the wire is formed in a rectangular shape, the side surfaces on both sides are connected to the front wire member on the front surface, and the rear wire member on the rear surface. A plurality of partition wires are provided between the side surfaces, and a predetermined gap is formed between the plurality of partition wires. A horizontal surface on which articles can be placed is formed by the upper surface of the partition wire, and the tray receiving wire that holds the plates on the lower surfaces of the side portions on both sides, and the pan that is located at a predetermined distance from the tray receiving wire. There is provided a tray stand characterized by comprising a retaining wire.

  The dish holding wire of the dish stand may be formed of a dish holding wire that holds the dish at a position higher than the dish receiving wire, and a leg wire bent downward from both ends of the dish holding wire.

  In the dish stand, a plurality of lower partition wires may be provided between the dish holding wire and the dish receiving wire.

  The dish stand may include a connecting wire connecting the lower ends of the leg wires, and a plurality of lower partition wires may be provided between the receiving plate and the connecting wires.

In short, since the partition wire is provided in the upper portion and the lower partition wire is also provided in the lower portion, the dish can be supported by two fulcrums and stable storage is possible. Moreover, like Example 2, the height of the partition wire 9 can be suppressed low, and there also exists an effect that it can be used in the limited space.

  By the way, the plurality of lower partition wires 25 are provided at a constant interval (pitch) in the left-right direction, and the pitch at which the plurality of lower partition wires 25 are provided may be the same as that of the plurality of partition wires 9, In plan view, at least one lower partition wire 25 is provided between the partition wires 9, and the pitch may be smaller than that of the partition wire 9.

  In the tray holder 23 of the third embodiment, the lower partition wire 25 is provided at the same position and at the same interval as the plurality of partition wires 9 in plan view, and one lower partition is provided at an intermediate position adjacent to each other of the plurality of partition wires 9. A wire rod 25 is provided. In short, the plurality of lower partition wires 25 are provided at a 1/2 pitch compared to the partition wires 9.

  Since the tray holder 23 according to the third embodiment is provided with a plurality of lower partition wires 25 at the above-described pitch, as shown in FIG. 3 (d), the bottom plate 23 corresponds to the size of each tray 13 to be stored. The partition wire 25 can be selected and stored. That is, by making the pitch of the lower partition wire smaller than the pitch of the partition wire, the storage angle of the dish can be changed according to the size of the dish, so that it can be stored in the storage room where the vertical space is limited. Can accommodate large and small dishes as appropriate.

  For example, the large dish 26 has a lower end supported by a lower partition wire 25 immediately below a certain partition wire 9 and an upper end supported by a horizontal portion of the adjacent partition wire 9 and an inclination angle θ ( By enlarging and storing it so that it lies more diagonally, the required vertical space can be further reduced so that it does not hit the top wall 27 of the storage 16. Further, the smaller dish 13 can be selectively used so that the lower end thereof is supported by the lower partition wire 25 located between the partition wires 9.
