Description

  The present invention relates to an edge material that is attached to the end of a table, counter, desk, door, furniture, or the like.

  Generally, an edge material is attached to the top of the table top plate. There are various table top plate shapes, but in general, the table has a quadrangular or circular shape, and an edge member made of resin is attached to the outer peripheral end of the table. There are various reasons for attaching the edge material, but it is also used as a protective material so as not to be injured even if it touches the angular mouth end, and also to improve the appearance of the cut end.

  By the way, the edge material is made of a soft resin, and the cross section thereof is a belt shape having a substantially T shape, and a leg is extended in the center of the back surface of the surface member. On the other hand, an elongated groove is provided along the table mouth, and the edge member is attached to the mouth by fitting a leg into the groove, and the surface member can cover the mouth. The edge material has a smooth rounded edge, and exhibits a smoothly continuous surface from the table top surface to the edge material surface without being angular.

  FIG. 5 (a) shows a part of a general table top plate (A). Apart from the shape of the table top (I), an edge material (B) is placed on the entire circumference of the outer end of the table. Installed. This is to protect the outer peripheral lip of the top plate (a) and to prevent injury from touching or hitting the lip, while also maintaining the appearance of the top plate (a). That is, the table top board (A) in recent years is rarely composed of solid, and plywood is generally used. Only the surface is laminated with a beautiful surface material, and the inside is made of a relatively rough material and is a top plate (a) that is laminated together.

In order to cover the outer periphery of such a laminated plywood, the edge material (b) is attached. FIG. 5B shows the surface of a conventional edge material, and the surface has the same wood grain pattern as that of the top board (A).
On the other hand, FIG. 6A shows a case where a plain edge material (B) is attached to the table top plate mouth, and FIG. 6B shows a plain edge material (B). As described above, the conventional edge material (b) is generally made of a wood grain pattern or a solid color according to the top board of the wood grain.

By the way, this edge material (b) has an elongated belt-like shape, and its cross section is substantially T-shaped. As shown in FIG. 7, a groove (d) is provided along the top plate outer periphery (c). A leg (e) extending from the back surface of the surface part (f) is fitted and attached to (d). The leg (e) has a saw-toothed structure so that it is difficult to come off the groove (d).
Of course, various other means are used for attaching the edge material (b) to the mouth (c), but the edge material (b) has a T-shaped cross section and the legs (e) are made to the mouth (ha). The most common method is to fit it in the groove (d) provided in ().

“Table edge and table top plate” according to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-106954
It is a table edge attached to the outer periphery of the top plate of the table, and is easy to attach and does not impair the appearance.
It is a belt-like body of a resin bag having a certain thickness and width, and has a R surface of an appropriate size at the boundary between the front surface and both side surfaces, and a joint attached to a groove formed in the top plate outer periphery lip on the back surface Grooves into which the fitting projections of the parts fit are formed.

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-253618 “Top plate edge structure, top plate edge forming method” is a top plate edge structure capable of obtaining sufficient strength and good appearance. This is an edge forming method of a top plate that can be obtained.
When the first edge member and the second edge member are attached to the top end of the top plate body, the first edge member is attached to the end surface of the top end of the top plate body in advance, and the surface to which the first edge member is attached is the first mounting surface. And forming a second mounting surface having a tapered surface that is inclined with respect to the thickness direction of the top plate body by cutting the top plate body and the first edge member at the same time, and the second edge member is formed on the second mounting surface. Is attached.

  The “top plate edge structure” according to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-38262 is an improvement in the waterproofness of the top plate. In the top plate formed with a waterproof layer on at least the top surface of the top plate body, A waterproof layer continuous with the upper surface waterproof layer is also formed at the top of the top plate body. And this side waterproof layer is an inner rail member that extends along the mouth, a screw that passes through the side waterproof layer to fix the inner rail member in the longitudinal direction in the longitudinal direction, and is fixed to the top of the top plate body, and the inner rail member And the upper edge is encapsulated by an outer rail member disposed at a position continuous with the upper surface waterproof layer of the top plate body.

As described above, various techniques relating to the structure of the edge material and the mounting structure are known.
By the way, as shown in the said FIG. 5, the edge material has the same grain pattern as a table top plate. That is, the purpose of the edge material is to cover the end of the top so as not to be injured even if it hits the corner of the top, and to prevent the end from being exposed. Therefore, if the top plate surface is a wood grain pattern, the surface of the edge material also forms a wood grain pattern. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 6, even if the top plate surface is wood grain, a solid edge material may be attached, resulting in an inconspicuous appearance.

  Thus, the conventional edge material has the above-mentioned problems. The problem to be solved by the present invention is this problem, and provides an edge material that is configured to be well noticeable by forming colorful patterns, figures, symbols and the like on the surface.

  The edge material according to the present invention is formed with a colorful pattern, figure, symbol or the like, or a combination of a pattern, figure, symbol, etc. is not. Of course, it is not plain without patterns, figures or symbols. Here, the shape of the edge material and the mounting structure are not questioned.

  A colorful pattern, figure, symbol, or the like formed on the surface can be printed on a sheet with an ink jet printer, and can be attached to the surface of the edge material. However, a specific method for forming a pattern, a figure, a symbol, or the like is not limited. The edge material has a band shape with a constant width, and the material is made of resin. Therefore, the edge material can be smoothly curved along corners such as a table top plate, a desk top plate, or a counter top plate. Moreover, it can attach not only to a top plate but to the door and the mouth of furniture.

  The edge material of the present invention is formed with a colorful pattern, figure, symbol, or the like on its surface, and can stand out as compared with a conventional wood grain pattern or plain edge material. Although the specific method of forming patterns and figures on the edge surface is not limited, colorful patterns and figures can be printed on a sheet with an inkjet printer, and this sheet can be attached to the surface of the edge material. Can be easily obtained.

  If a colorful edge material is attached to the table, desk, counter, or the mouth of a door or furniture, the table, desk, counter, door, furniture itself will be gorgeous. It becomes. Further, if a product to be sold is formed on the edge material, an advertising effect can be brought about on the edge material.

The Example which shows the edge material which concerns on this invention. An embodiment in which the edge material is attached to the top of the table top plate. The other Example which shows the edge material which concerns on this invention. The other Example which attached the edge material to the mouth of the table top board. When an edge material having a grain pattern formed on the surface and the edge material is attached to a table mouth. When an edge material without a pattern on the surface and the edge material is attached to a table top. Sectional drawing at the time of attaching an edge material to a mouthpiece.

  FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of an edge material 1 according to the present invention. The edge material 1 is made of a soft resin so as to be smoothly curved, and has a strip shape with a constant width. A leg extends on the back side, and the leg is fitted and attached to a groove provided in a table top, such as a table or a counter. Therefore, the end face is covered with the surface portion 2 of the edge material 1 and is configured as a smoothly continuous surface without a corner from the top plate to the surface portion.

  A sunflower figure is formed on the surface of the edge member 1 shown in FIG. 1, and the surface of the top plate has a grain pattern. Therefore, the edge material 1 on which the sunflower figure is formed is conspicuous, and the table or counter to which the edge material 1 is attached can be conspicuous. FIG. 2 shows a case where the edge material 1 is attached to the top of the table top 3. Since the edge material 1 is made of a soft resin, it is smoothly curved and attached along the corner portion of the top plate 3. However, the edge material 1 is not limited to a soft resin, and may be made of a hard resin.

  Here, the attachment method of the edge material 1 is arbitrary, but the most general method is to extend the legs from the back surface of the edge material 1 as shown in FIG. It can be easily installed by fitting it into the groove. For example, there is a case in which the legs are fixed to the end of the mouth without using the legs, and the attachment means for the edge material is not limited in the present invention. The surface 4 of the top plate 3 shown in the figure forms a wood grain pattern, and the sunflower pattern on the edge material surface is colorful and gorgeous with respect to this wood grain pattern.

  FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the edge member 5 according to the present invention, and a horse figure is represented on the surface portion 6 of the edge member 5. Unlike the sunflower pattern of the edge material 1 shown in FIG. 1, the edge material 5 representing the stylized horse grasps the mind of an infant or a child and is a table or counter to which the edge material 5 is attached. Playfulness is also encouraged and a friendly atmosphere can be created in the store.

  FIG. 4 shows the case where the edge member 5 is attached to the mouth of the table. Also in the case of the table top 7 of FIG. 4, the surface 8 forms a wood grain pattern. Of course, a plain top plate without a pattern may be used, but the edge material 5 is conspicuous because a colorful figure is formed on the surface portion 6 and can attract a human eye.

By the way, there are various methods for forming such colorful patterns, figures, symbols and the like on the surfaces of the edge materials 1 and 5, and the present invention does not limit the methods. For example, it is possible to form colorful patterns, figures, symbols, etc. using an ink jet printer.
There are various types of ink jet printers, but in the case of an on-demand type, a required amount of ink droplets is ejected when necessary during printing. The ink supply after ejection uses capillary action, so high viscosity ink cannot be used, and the ink droplet generation speed is about 10 drops per second, but the printer structure is simple, downsized and multi-headed It is often used because it is easy to convert.
