Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(First Embodiment)
The table 1 of the present embodiment is furniture with a top plate that is preferably used in offices and the like. The table 1 is preferably used in a work mode using an electronic device such as a personal computer that requires power supply on the top plate 2, for example. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the table 1 has a top plate 2, a wiring duct 3 attached to the lower surface of the top plate 2, and a support mechanism 5 for supporting the top plate 2.

A substantially rectangular top plate opening 2a is formed in the central portion of the top plate 2, and a wiring duct 3 is arranged below the top plate opening 2a of the top plate 2. Two lid members 2b are arranged in the top plate opening 2a. A gap is formed between the two lid members 2b for inserting wirings of electronic devices.

The top plate opening 2a and the wiring duct 3 communicate with each other, and the lid member 2b is supported by the top plate 2 so as to be openable and closable by a rotation mechanism (not shown). Therefore, the wiring duct 3 is configured to be openable and closable by the lid member 2b.

On the lower surface of the top plate 2, the support mechanism 5 supports a pair of reinforcing beams 5a extending in the front-rear direction, a pair of reinforcing beams 5b extending in the left-right direction, and four lower surfaces near the four corners of the top plate 2. It has a leg portion 6. The reinforcing beam 5a and the reinforcing beam 5b are fixed to the lower surface of the top plate 2 so as to surround the top plate opening 2a.

The leg portion 6 has a bracket 6a connected to the end portion of the reinforcing beam 5a and attached to the top plate 2, and a leg support 10 extending in the vertical direction fixed to the bracket 6a.

As shown in FIG. 3, the leg support 10 which is a furniture member according to the present invention has a tubular member 12 extending in the vertical direction, a cover member 16, and an adjuster 18.

As shown in FIG. 4, the tubular member 12 has a first side surface 12a, two second side surfaces 12b extending from both ends of the first side surface 12a, and a tip end portion (first side surface 12a) of the second side surface 12b. It has two third side surfaces 12c extending from (the end opposite to the end of the cylinder). The first side surface 12a, the two second side surfaces 12b, and the two third side surfaces 12c are all substantially rectangular plate-shaped members extending in the vertical direction, and have substantially the same thickness.

The two third side surfaces 12c extend so as to incline from the end of the second side surface 12b toward the first side surface 12a. The two third side surfaces 12c are substantially opposed to each other, and the tips of the two third side surfaces 12c (the ends opposite to the end of the second side surface 12b) are continuous. Therefore, the two third side surfaces 12c are formed in a concave shape toward the inside of the cylindrical member 12.

As described above, the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12 is formed with a concave surface 30 formed so as to extend from the upper end portion (base end portion) to the lower end portion (tip portion) of the tubular member 12. In the cross section (horizontal cross section) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tubular member 12, the width of the concave surface 30 becomes maximum at the outermost peripheral portion and gradually decreases inward. Therefore, the horizontal cross section of the concave surface 30 is formed into a substantially V shape by the two third side surfaces 12c.

As shown in FIGS. 4 (b) and 4 (c), the horizontal cross section of the tubular member 12 is substantially the same from the upper end to the lower end. In horizontal cross-section of the tubular member 12, substantially the entire area of the first side surface 12a is disposed outside the straight line t ₁ passing through the two ends, the first side surface 12a is formed in a convex shape toward the outside NS. Similarly, substantially the entire region of the two second side 12b has its opposite end portions are disposed outside the straight line t ₂ that passes through, the two second side surfaces 12b, are formed in a convex shape toward the outside. As described above, the two second side surfaces 12b arranged on both sides of the concave surface 30 are curved surfaces having a curvature and convex toward the outside. On the other hand, the concave surface 30 has two third side surfaces 12c that are substantially opposed to each other, and the two third side surfaces 12c are flat flat surfaces.

The tubular member 12 is formed by, for example, press-molding a rectangular pipe having a rectangular cross section. The pipe material forming the tubular member 12 is made of, for example, a pipe-shaped steel pipe. Specifically, it is formed into a tubular shape by rolling a steel sheet and welding the ends to each other.

In this embodiment, using a press machine and a simple die, press molding is performed so that the side surface on the long side of the rectangular pipe is pressed. When a rectangular pipe is used as the pipe material, if the flat surface portion is press-molded, the concave surface 30 becomes a straight line in cross-sectional shape. Further, the design can be improved by forming the remaining three surfaces (first side surface 12a and two second side surfaces 12b) into a shape having a curvature.

Four openings 31 are formed on the concave surface 30. Specifically, the four openings 31 have a substantially rectangular shape, and two are formed on each of the two substantially opposite third side surfaces 12c forming the concave surface 30. The two openings 31 formed on one third side surface 12c are arranged at positions separated in the vertical direction and close to the outer end portion of the third side surface 12c. The opening 31 is a component mounting portion T for mounting the cover member 16 on the concave surface 30. In this way, the openings 31 are formed on the two substantially opposite third side surfaces 12c, but it is usually difficult to form the openings on the two substantially opposite surfaces. However, in the present embodiment, it is realized by forming four openings 31 in the rectangular pipe and then post-processing (press molding) the pipe.

The cover member 16 is a member for forming the wiring passage portion A in the concave surface 30, and is a substantially rectangular plate-shaped member extending in the vertical direction as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B. be. Convex portions 16a are formed on both ends of the cover member 16 in the short side direction. As shown in FIG. 5C, the convex portion 16a has two locking portions 16b separated in the vertical direction, and the locking portion 16b is formed in two openings 31 arranged in the vertical direction of the concave surface 30. It is formed so that it can be inserted.

Therefore, in the table 1 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3B, the cover member 16 is attached to the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12, so that the wiring passage portion A is formed in the concave surface 30. Therefore, the wiring of the power outlet arranged in the wiring duct 3 passes through the wiring passage portion A extending in the vertical direction inside the leg column 10.

In the table 1 of the present embodiment, the four leg columns 10 are arranged so that the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12 faces the central portion of the top plate 2. Therefore, the wiring passing through the wiring passing portion A is covered with the cover member 16 and is not visible in appearance. Further, the cover member 16 and the opening 31 to which the cover member 16 is attached are both difficult to see in appearance.

As shown in FIG. 4A, substantially rectangular notches 12d are formed in a part of the lower ends of the two third side surfaces 12c of the tubular member 10. The two notches 12d formed on the two third side surfaces 12c are continuous and form one notch 33. That is, the notch 33 has a longitudinal length of a part of the two third side surfaces 12c which is a concave portion rather than the longitudinal length of the first side surface 12a and the two second side surfaces 12b which are the outer peripheral portions of the tubular member 10. It is formed by shortening the length. The cutout portion 33 is a component mounting portion T for mounting the adjuster mounting member 18a on the concave surface 30. The adjuster mounting member 18a is a rectangular plate-shaped member.

FIG. 6 shows a method of attaching the adjuster 18 to the lower end portion of the cylindrical member 12. As shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the adjuster mounting member 18a is fixed to the cylindrical member 12 by welding in a state of being in contact with the notch 33. The adjuster mounting member 18a has a screw hole 18b formed in the center thereof. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6C, the screw portion 18c of the adjuster 18 is fastened and fixed to the screw hole 18b of the adjuster mounting member 18a.

Therefore, in the table 1 of the present embodiment, when the adjuster mounting member 18a is attached to the notch 33, the lower end portions of the notches 12d of the two third side surfaces 12c are fixed to the central portion of the upper surface of the adjuster mounting member 18a. NS. Therefore, the position of the adjuster mounting member 18a becomes easy, and it is also advantageous in terms of load.

As described above, the leg support 10 of the present embodiment is a cylindrical member 12 having a concave surface 30 extending from the base end side toward the tip end side by deforming the steel pipe on the outer peripheral surface, and the concave surface 30 is a component. A component mounting portion T for mounting the above is provided.

As a result, in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the component mounting portion T for mounting the component is provided on the concave surface 30 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12, and the component mounting portion T is the appearance of the furniture. It becomes difficult to see from. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the leg support 10 from significantly impairing the design appearance of the furniture because the component mounting portion T is visible in appearance.

In the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the concave surface 30 has two third side surfaces 12c that are substantially opposed to each other, and the component mounting portion T is an opening 31 formed in the two third side surfaces 12c.

Thereby, in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the component mounting portion T provided on the concave surface 30 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12 can be easily configured.

In the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the component mounting portion T is a notch formed by shortening the longitudinal length of a part of the concave portion from the longitudinal length of the outer peripheral portion of the tubular member 12. ..

This facilitates the work of welding parts such as the adjuster 18 to the end of the tubular member 12 in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment.

In the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, in the cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tubular member 12, the width of the concave surface 30 becomes maximum at the outermost peripheral portion and gradually decreases inward.

As a result, in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the concave surface 30 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12 can be easily formed, for example, by press molding.

In the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the first side surface 12a and the two second side surfaces 12b other than the concave surface 30 are formed in a convex shape toward the outside on the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12.

As a result, in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the design of the table 1 is improved.

In the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, the adjuster mounting member 18a is mounted on the component mounting portion T.

As a result, in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, even when the adjuster 18 is attached to the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12, it is possible to suppress the design appearance of the table 1 from being significantly impaired.

In the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, a cover member 16 for forming the wiring passage portion A is attached to the concave surface 30 on the component attachment portion T.

As a result, in the leg support 10 of the present embodiment, even when the cover member 16 is attached to the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12, it is possible to suppress the design appearance of the table 1 from being significantly impaired.

(Second Embodiment)
The difference between the leg support 110 of the present embodiment and the leg support 10 of the first embodiment is that the leg support 10 of the first embodiment has the cover member 16, whereas the leg support 110 of the present embodiment is a stopper. It is a point having 116 and a method of attaching the adjuster attachment member 18a. The detailed description of the portion where the leg support 110 of the present embodiment and the leg support 10 of the first embodiment have the same configuration will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 7, the leg support 110, which is a furniture member according to the present invention, has a tubular member 12 extending in the vertical direction, a stopper 116, and an adjuster 18.

The tubular member 12 has a first side surface 12a, two second side surfaces 12b, and two third side surfaces 12c. A concave surface 30 formed so as to extend from an upper end portion (base end portion) to a lower end portion (tip end portion) of the tubular member 12 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12.

As shown in FIG. 8A, four openings 131 are formed on the concave surface 30. The four openings 131 have a substantially rectangular shape, and two are formed on each of the two third side surfaces 12c forming the concave surface 30. The two openings 131 formed on one third side surface 12c are arranged at positions separated in the vertical direction and close to the outer end portion of the third side surface 12c. The two openings 131 on the upper side of the concave surface 30 are formed at substantially the same height, and the two openings 131 on the lower side of the concave surface 30 are formed at substantially the same height. The opening 131 is a component mounting portion T for mounting the stopper 116 on the concave surface 30.

As shown in FIG. 8A, the stopper 116 is a long member made of resin. Locking portions 116a attached to the opening 131 of the concave surface 30 are formed at both ends of the stopper 116. Engaging portion 116a has a first portion 116a ₁ which is inserted into the opening 131, and a second portion 116a ₂ of the first portion 116a ₁ is in contact with the concave surface 30 when inserted into the opening 131. In the stopper 116, _{the length between the two second portions 116a 2} is longer than the length between the two openings 131 at approximately the same height.

The stopper 116 has flexibility as shown in FIGS. 9 (a) and 9 (b). When attaching the stopper 116 to the concave surface 30, the stopper 116 is bent and the first portions 116a ₁ at both ends thereof are inserted into the two openings 131 at substantially the same height. After that, when the force for bending the stopper 116 is removed, the stopper 116 is attached to the concave surface 30 as shown in FIG. 9 (c).

Therefore, in the table of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7B, the stopper 116 is attached to the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12, so that the wiring passage portion A is formed in the concave surface 30. Therefore, the wiring of the power outlet arranged in the wiring duct 3 passes through the wiring passage portion A extending in the vertical direction inside the leg column 110.

In the table of the present embodiment, the four leg columns 110 are arranged so that the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12 faces the central portion of the top plate 2. Therefore, the wiring passing through the wiring passing portion A becomes difficult to see in appearance. Further, the stopper 116 and the opening 131 to which the stopper 116 is attached are both difficult to see in appearance. Further, since the wiring passing through the wiring passing portion A is arranged inside the stopper 116, it is possible to prevent the wiring from moving to the outside of the wiring passing portion A.

In the tubular member 12, a substantially rectangular opening 133 is formed in the vicinity of the lower ends of the two third side surfaces 12c, as shown in FIG. 8A. The adjuster mounting member 18a is a rectangular plate-shaped member, and is formed so as to be insertable into the opening 133. As shown in FIG. 8B, the adjuster mounting member 18a is fixed to the tubular member 12 by welding while being inserted into the opening 133. The opening 133 is a component mounting portion T for mounting the adjuster mounting member 18a on the concave surface 30.

As described above, in the leg support 110 of the present embodiment and the table provided with the leg support 110, the openings 131 and 133 formed in the leg support 110 are difficult to see in appearance as in the first embodiment.

(Third Embodiment)
The difference between the support column 210 of the present embodiment and the leg support column 10 of the first embodiment is that the cover member 16 of the support column 210 of the first embodiment is attached by inserting the locking portion 16b into the opening 31 of the concave surface 30. On the other hand, the cover member 216 of the support column 210 of the present embodiment is attached to the concave surface 30 by a magnet. A detailed description of a portion in which the support column 210 of the present embodiment and the leg support column 10 of the first embodiment have the same configuration will be omitted.

The tubular member 12 has a first side surface 12a, two second side surfaces 12b, and two third side surfaces 12c. A concave surface 30 formed so as to extend from an upper end portion (base end portion) to a lower end portion (tip end portion) of the tubular member 12 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member 12. The concave surface 30 has two substantially opposite third side surfaces 12c, and the two third side surfaces 12c are flat flat surfaces.

The cover member 216 is a member for forming the wiring passage portion A in the concave surface 30, and is a substantially rectangular plate-shaped member extending in the vertical direction as shown in FIGS. 10A and 10B. be. Convex portions 216a are formed on both ends of the cover member 216 in the short side direction. A magnet 216b is arranged over the entire tip of the convex portion 216a.

When attached to the concave surface 30, the tip surface of the magnet 216b is inclined so as to make surface contact with the two third side surfaces 12c forming the concave surface 30. Therefore, the cover member 216 is attached to the two third side surfaces 12c forming the concave surface 30 by the magnet 216b. In the present embodiment, the surfaces of the two third side surfaces 12c forming the concave surface 30 are component attachment portions T for attaching the cover member 216 to the concave surface 30.

Therefore, in the table of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10C, the cover member 216 is attached to the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12, so that the wiring passage portion A is formed in the concave surface 30. Therefore, the wiring of the power outlet arranged in the wiring duct 3 passes through the wiring passage portion A extending in the vertical direction inside the leg support 210.

In the table of the present embodiment, the four leg columns 210 are arranged so that the concave surface 30 of the tubular member 12 faces the central portion of the top plate 2. Therefore, the wiring passing through the wiring passing portion A is covered with the cover member 216 and is not visible in appearance. Further, the cover member 216 and the concave surface 30 to which the cover member 216 is attached are both difficult to see in appearance.

As described above, in the leg support 210 of the present embodiment and the table provided with the leg support 210, the concave surface 30 formed on the leg support 210 becomes difficult to see in appearance as in the first embodiment.

In the leg support 210 of the present embodiment, the concave surface 30 has two flat third side surfaces 12c, and the component mounting portion T is the surface of the third side surface 12c.

As a result, in the leg support 210 of the present embodiment, the component can be attached to the concave surface 30 by, for example, a magnet without separately forming an opening or a notch as the component attachment portion T with respect to the concave surface 30.

(Fourth Embodiment)
The strut 310 of the present embodiment is different from the leg strut 10 of the first embodiment, whereas the leg strut 10 of the first embodiment is a furniture member used for the table 1, whereas the strut of the present embodiment is a strut. The point is that 310 is a furniture member used for the storage furniture 301. A detailed description of a portion in which the support column 310 of the present embodiment and the leg support column 10 of the first embodiment have the same configuration will be omitted.
