The slide hinge may be a one-touch removable type. The hinge 8 may be provided on one side of the curtain plate 4 or on both sides. Further, a vertical 18 is provided on the inner side of the horizontal rail 13 in the cabinet portion 3. As long as the attachment 18 can be attached to the crosspiece 13, any screw, nail, double-sided tape, or the like that can hold the attachment 18 can be used. This prevents articles stored in the tray 9 from falling to the inside of the cabinet section 3, and maintains the aesthetics without exposing the interior of the cabinet section 3 to the outside even when the curtain plate 4 is opened. It becomes possible.

FIG. 3 is a view of the curtain plate 4 as viewed from above.
On the back surface of the curtain 4, there are provided a plurality of locking portions 10 that are arranged substantially evenly. In this embodiment, the locking portion 10 is made of resin and fixed to the curtain plate 4 with screws, but the locking portion 10 may be made of resin or metal. The locking portion 10 may be fixed directly to the curtain plate 4 with wood screws, or a bush may be embedded in the curtain plate 4 and attached with screws or the like.
The stay 6 is provided on one side of the curtain, and the curtain 4 is provided with a hinge 8 serving as an opening / closing shaft. The end of the curtain plate 4 opposite to the stay 6 and the corresponding side plate 5 of the cabinet section 3 have a magnet catch 14, and the curtain plate 4 is held by the force of this magnet in the closed position. The mounting positions of the stay 6 and the magnet catch on the curtain plate 4 may be switched between the left and right sides. The stay 6 and the magnet catch 14 may be provided on both sides.

A magnet catch 14 is fixed to the side plate opposite to the attachment of the stay 6 with screws.

FIG. 5 is a view showing the opening / closing operation of the curtain plate 4.
When opening the curtain 4, pulling in the opening direction releases the magnet catch 14 and rotates about the axis of the hinge 8 attached to the crosspiece 7. Since the stay 6 has a mechanism for adjusting the friction, the stay 6 can be opened smoothly. The tray 9 attached to the curtain plate 4 is arranged with a gap so as not to interfere with the horizontal rail 13 and the wash bowl portion 2 when opening and closing. When the curtain plate 4 is closed, the curtain plate 4 is held by the magnet catch 14 so as not to open due to its own weight.

  FIG. 6 is a sectional view showing a state in which the curtain plate 4 is opened. Although the opening degree can be regulated by the stay 6, the maximum opening degree is set to about 45 ° in this embodiment. This is an angle at which stored items can be easily seen from above and taken out easily.
