[Method of assembling article storage furniture] Next, the method of assembling article storage furniture will be described. The left and right mounting members 20 are arranged at predetermined positions on the floor surface with a predetermined space therebetween, and screws or the like are screwed in from the long holes 24 of the base piece 21 and fixed. The mounting member 20 is similarly mounted on the ceiling. The front processing materials 18 and 19 are passed between the front surfaces of the front processing material holding pieces 23 of the mounting member 20, and screws or the like are screwed in from the long holes 26 side to be fixed. Before fixing the attachment member 20 to the floor or the like, the front processing material holding pieces 23 are attached to the left and right ends of the back surface of the front processing materials 18 and 19, and then the base piece 21 is used to attach the floor to the floor or the like. By mounting, positioning such as mutual intervals can be easily performed. Next, the side plate holding piece 21 of the mounting member 20
Then, the side plates 1 and 1 are brought into contact with each other from both left and right outer sides, and a screw is screwed into the screw portion 5 of the side plate 1 from the long hole 25 of the side plate holding piece 21. At this time, it is a matter of course that the height of the side plate 1 is adjusted by the adjustment mechanism 10 and the tension mechanism 16. After the side plates 1 and 1 are erected, four stepped screws 35 are screwed into the screw portions 5 and 5 in the same horizontal plane at a desired height, and the shelf plate 80 is held in the above-described procedure (FIG. 1).
2). Since the screw portion 5 of the side plate 1 is formed of a screw socket 6 made of metal or the like (see FIG. 2), even if the stepped screw 35 is frequently attached and detached, the screw portion 5 may be worn or crushed. It is difficult, and the height of the shelf 80 can be changed any number of times.

The vertical dimension of the side plate 1, the horizontal dimension of the front processing materials 18 and 19, the horizontal dimension and the longitudinal dimension of the shelf 80 are different, or furniture elements other than the shelf 80 (drawers and hangers) ) Can prepare a variety of article storage furniture that is perfectly suited to an existing room.

When such article storage furniture is installed under stairs, in an attic, or the like, the upper end of the side plate 1 is inclined in accordance with the inclination thereof, and the rear end of the upper end of the side plate 1 is provided. In providing the front processing materials 19 between the front faces or the front faces, the attachment member 73 in FIG. 13 is used. The mounting member 73 has a base piece 74 attached to the front processing material holding piece 76 so as to be swingable in a vertical direction by a hinge portion 77. The front processing material holding piece 76 is attached to the left or right end of the base piece 74. A side plate holding piece 75 bent from the left or right end of 76 is provided. The side plate holding piece 75 is formed in a triangular shape having a 45 ° angle at the apex in the illustrated state. Such a mounting member 73 can be commonly used for fixing the front processing material 19 even in a place where the inclination of the stairs or the roof is different. Of course, this attachment member 73 can also be used when fixing the front processing members 18 and 19 to a horizontal ceiling or floor surface.

The large-diameter portion 32 of the stepped screw 35 can be formed to be long in the axial direction. In this case, the tool engagement portion 50 formed on the large diameter portion 32 is not necessarily
It is not necessary to extend over the entire length of 2, but it is also possible to have only a part near the constricted portion 33.

[0019]

The present invention has the following effects by the above-described configuration. Since the upper and lower intermediate portions of the pair of front and rear flexible packing pieces are connected by the connecting portion, that is, while allowing the deformation of the free end portions of the pair of front and rear flexible packing pieces. Since the packing piece restricts the packing piece from opening more than necessary by the force received from the surface that the packing piece contacts,
The packing piece does not open upward even after long-term use, and as a result, the insect repellent and dustproof effect of the packing can be maintained for a long time.
