Description

  The present invention relates to a decorative side panel attached to a side surface of a cabinet constituting system furniture such as a system kitchen.

  System furniture such as a conventional system kitchen and a workbench arranged adjacent to the system kitchen has a base constructed by combining a plurality of cabinets, and a counter placed on the base. In order to enhance the above design, as shown in FIG. 3, a makeup side panel 110 is attached to the side surface 101 of the cabinet 100 located at the end.

  As an example of the above-described known system furniture, Patent Literature 1 discloses a system kitchen whose entire side surface is covered with a single decorative board.

  Since such a decorative side panel 110 is an easily visible external member such as a user or a visitor, in addition to improving the design of the system furniture itself, it also serves to visually partition the space in which it is installed. Yes. For example, a makeup side panel attached to a system kitchen visually gives a user, a visitor, etc. an impression that separates the kitchen from a dining room and a living room adjacent to the kitchen.

  The makeup side panel 110 is configured in consideration of the structure of the cabinet 100 so as to sufficiently exhibit the visual effect. That is, the cabinet 100 is provided with a recess 102 at the lower front portion thereof over the entire width of the base, and a space S1 defined by the recess 102 is a space S2 on the side of the cabinet 100 in the longitudinal direction X. When connected together, the above-mentioned function for partitioning the space is weakened. Therefore, when the decorative side panel 110 is attached to the side surface 101 of the cabinet 100, as shown in FIG. 3, the space S1 defined by the sink 102 and the side space S2 of the cabinet 100 are partitioned. The width W3 (dimension in the depth direction) is larger than the depth D4 of the bottom surface of the cabinet 100, that is, the same dimension as the depth D5 of the cabinet side surface 101 above the penetration 102. Accordingly, the conventional decorative side panel 110 is configured as a flat plate having a rectangular outer shape, and the sink 102 at the lower end of the cabinet is covered and concealed from the side by the decorative panel 110.

As described above, in the conventional system furniture, the decorative furniture 102 is hidden from the side by the decorative side panel 110.
On the other hand, a special system kitchen as shown in Patent Document 2 below has been proposed as a type of system kitchen that protrudes like a peninsula from a wall surface called a so-called Peninsula type kitchen. This is a counter composed of a plurality of curves, and is composed of a cabinet corresponding to the counter shape. In the cabinet of this system kitchen, a sink 102 is provided around the periphery except for one side that abuts against the wall surface. However, in this type of system kitchen, there is no portion corresponding to the side surface of a general system kitchen, and therefore, the system kitchen is configured without a flat decorative side panel. In addition, in this type of special system kitchen, the penetration provided almost over the entire circumference greatly contributes to the improvement of design by its continuity. It is not intended to be provided.
JP 2002-233425 A (FIG. 5) Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2003-125868 (FIG. 1)

  As described above, the decorative side panel 110 is formed by the front end lower portion 111 being formed as a wall portion perpendicular to the cut-in surface 102A so as to partition the space S1 of the cut-in 102 of the cabinet 100 and the space S2 of the side of the cabinet 100. Is hidden. On the other hand, when the front end lower portion 111 of the decorative side panel 110 is configured to be cut out corresponding to the cut-in 102, the space cannot be divided, while visually improving the integrity with the cabinet, Although it is considered that the harmony with the individual cabinets constituting the system furniture is enhanced and it is possible to contribute to the improvement of the design of the system furniture, the conventional makeup side panel 110 is not configured from such a viewpoint.

  Further, the peninsula-type kitchen shown in Patent Document 2 is provided with a sink on substantially the entire periphery thereof. However, the decorative side panel 110 is provided for a system furniture having a conventional flat-shaped decorative side panel 110. However, the idea of providing a notch corresponding to the recess 102 has not been achieved. This requires at least a special structure of the peninsula-type kitchen itself described in Patent Document 2, that is, since it does not have a side portion (side surface) as shown in Patent Document 1, and requires a flat decorative side panel. This is based on the fact that there is no relation between this penetration and the makeup side panel.

  The present invention has been created in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a makeup side panel that can contribute to improving the design of system furniture.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a decorative side panel that is attached to a side surface of a cabinet having scoring, and has a notch corresponding to scoring.

  According to the above configuration, by providing the cut-out portion corresponding to the cut-in on the decorative side panel, when the decorative side panel is attached to the side of the cabinet, the appearance of whether the cut in the cabinet extends to the decorative side panel as well. Can be presented. Therefore, the continuity of such a shape improves the integrity of the makeup side panel and the cabinet. For this reason, the harmony of the members which comprise system furniture is raised, and the design property of system furniture improves.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the embodiments shown in the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a decorative side panel 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 50 shown by a two-dot chain line in the figure schematically shows a cabinet to which the decorative side panel 10 is attached.

  The decorative side panel 10 according to the present embodiment is configured as a single flat plate and is formed so as to cover the side surface 51 of the cabinet 50. Specifically, in the illustrated example, the overall width (dimension in the depth direction) W1 is set to be the same as the depth D1 on the upper side surface of the cabinet so as to cover the hatched area on the cabinet side surface 51 of FIG. It is formed as a vertically long flat plate.

  Such a configuration is the same as that of the conventional decorative side panel 110, but the decorative side panel 10 according to the present embodiment is characterized by having a notch portion 11 corresponding to the notch 52 of the cabinet 50 at the lower front end. . That is, the width (dimension in the depth direction) W2 of the bottom side of the makeup side panel 10 is set to the same dimension as the depth D2 of the bottom surface of the cabinet 50, and the depth of the penetration 52 is larger than the width W1 of the top of the makeup side panel. It is short by D3 minutes. Thereby, the depth C1 of the notch part 11 is set to the same dimension as the depth of penetration D3. Further, the height C2 of the notch 11 is set to the same dimension as the height H of the notch 52. Therefore, when the decorative side panel 10 is attached to the side surface 51 of the cabinet 50, the end surface 11A that defines the notch 11 is flush with the scoring surface 52A.

  The makeup side panel 10 is configured by performing a surface decoration treatment on a base material. Generally, MDF, particle board, or the like is used for the base material, and glossy coating, matte coating, decorative sheet sticking, or the like is used for the surface cosmetic treatment, but is not limited thereto.

Different colors and finishes may be given.

  The attachment of the decorative side panel 10 to the cabinet side surface 51 can be fixed using, for example, an adhesive or a screw. When mounting, if the floor of the installation location is uneven and the decorative side panel 10 cannot be erected vertically, the lower part of the panel is processed to match the floor surface. For example, when the height of the cabinet 50 is changed by the adjustment adjuster when the cabinet 50 is installed, the lower part of the panel is processed so that the overall height of the makeup side panel 10 corresponds to the cabinet height. Adjust its height.

  As described above, the decorative side panel 10 according to the present embodiment has the notch portion 11 corresponding to the cut-in 52 of the cabinet 50. Therefore, when it is attached to the cabinet side surface 51, the integrity with the cabinet 50 is improved, and the harmony with the individual members constituting the system furniture is improved, thereby contributing to the improvement of the design of the system furniture. In particular, it is possible to obtain a visual effect that the sinking portion appears to surround the system furniture and the mass feeling of the system furniture is emphasized. Moreover, according to the makeup | decoration side panel 10, since the movement along the longitudinal direction is not obstruct | occluded in the penetration area | region, a user's movement from "kitchen" to "dining" or "living room" becomes still easier, for example. .
