DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a desk with shelves suitable for children.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a desk for children, shelves are generally provided at the rear of a top plate. In this case, the shelf is provided with a pair of left and right side plates that are in contact with the top plate of the desk, the left and right side plates are supported by the top plate, and a shelf plate or a drawer is provided between the left and right side plates. Most were there. However, in such a configuration in which the left and right side plates of the shelf are placed on the desk top plate, dead space occurs on the desk because the shelf side plate becomes an obstacle and it is not possible to widely spread the articles on the desk. There was a problem that the desk could not be used widely. For this reason, children often removed the shelves and discarded them when they were older.

On the other hand, as described in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 47-1878, a pair of right and left columns is fixed to the back of a desk, and a shelf is mounted between upper portions of the left and right columns. With such a configuration, the article can be widely spread on the top plate of the desk, so that there is an advantage that the desk can be widely used even though the shelf is provided.

[0004]

However, in the configuration in which the shelf is supported by a pair of right and left columns as described in the above-mentioned publication, not only the support strength of the shelf is weak, but also stationery and the like used on the desk fall on the back of the desk. There was a problem that it could not be prevented. In addition, since the height of the shelf is constant, there is also a problem that it is difficult to use for children whose body grows. Regarding the height of the shelf, it is considered that it would be good to make the height of the support column adjustable in several steps so that the height of the shelf can be changed in stages. In the configuration in which the height can only be changed in height, the accommodation volume of the shelves is constant, so that it is not possible to arrange finely arranged articles, and thus it is not possible to sufficiently meet the demands of users.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of such problems of the prior art, and has as its object to provide an easy-to-use desk that can be widely used according to the user's preference. .

[0006]

According to the present invention, there is provided a back support plate having a lateral width substantially equal to that of the top plate on a back surface of a desk body supporting the top plate with legs. It is fixed with screws so that it largely protrudes upward from the top plate, and a fixed shelf provided with left and right side plates is provided on the upper front surface of the back support plate, and the fixed shelf is partitioned into a plurality of left and right partitions on the fixed shelf. A board is provided, and an auxiliary shelf formed in a width dimension that fits tightly into the one mounting portion is detachably mounted on one of the plurality of mounting portions partitioned by the partition plate on the fixed shelf. Further, the height of the back support plate is set to a low position where the fixed shelf approaches or abuts on the top plate, and a height where an auxiliary shelf can be inserted between the fixed shelf and the top plate. Set so that it can be switched to the position ".

[0007]

According to this structure, the fixed shelf is set at the low position, and the auxiliary shelf is placed on the fixed shelf, or the fixed shelf is set at the high position with the auxiliary shelf mounted. With the setting or the fixed shelf set at a high position,
Select the fine-grained usage mode according to the height and preference of the user, the layout of the room, the amount of items stored on the shelf, etc., such as placing the auxiliary shelf removed from the fixed shelf on the top plate can do. In this case, even when the auxiliary shelf is placed on the fixed shelf, articles can be stored in the auxiliary shelf, so that the storage capacity of the entire shelf does not decrease. Also,
Since the fixed shelf is attached to the back support plate which has the same width as the desk top plate, the fixed shelf support strength is improved compared to the case where the fixed shelf is supported by the left and right columns as described in the above publication In addition to this, it is possible to prevent articles such as pencils from rolling down on the back of the desk.

Therefore, according to the present invention, there is an effect that the usability of the desk can be remarkably improved without impairing the support strength of the shelf. Furthermore, according to the configuration of claim 2, since the lateral width of the auxiliary shelf becomes large, the capacity of the auxiliary shelf can be increased when the auxiliary shelf is placed on the top plate, which is extremely useful. is there.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the position of the lamp can be changed three-dimensionally, not only can the height of the fixed shelf be changed without impairing the function of properly illuminating the desk, but also the mounting of the lamp can be achieved. Since the position can be freely changed left and right, the lighting method can be changed according to the user's preference and the indoor layout, and the usability can be further improved. In addition, since the power supply cord for the lamp can be pulled out from the through hole of the back support plate together with the plug, the cord can be beautifully processed.

[0010]

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a perspective view of the desk viewed from the front, FIG.
FIG. 1A is a perspective view of a desk viewed from the rear. As is clear from both figures, the desk includes a desk body 1 having a left and right leg 2 supporting a top plate 3. A rear support plate 4 having substantially the same width as the top plate 3 is fixed to the rear surface of the rear support plate 4 with screws 4 ′ so as to protrude largely upward from the top plate 3. Is installed.

The back support plate 4 is supported by a bracket 5 'fixed to the back of the leg 2 with screws 5. The bracket 5 ′ has a role of temporarily supporting the back support plate 4 in fixing the back support plate 4. FIG. 2 (A)
As shown in the figure, the lower portions of the left and right legs 2 are connected by a horizontal bar 2 '. By forming two pairs of screw holes 7 for mounting the back support plate 4 on the back surface of the leg body 2 at the top and bottom, the height of the back support plate 4 can be adjusted in two levels (three or more steps). The height may be adjusted at the same time). As shown by a dashed line in FIG. 1, a sleeve cabinet 8 formed separately from the desk body 1 is disposed in one of the right and left portions of the section below the top plate 3.

The fixed shelf 6 is formed to have substantially the same width as the back support plate 4, and includes a pair of left and right side plates 9 and a shelf plate 10 mounted between the lower portions of the both side plates 9. Reference numeral 6 is divided into three mounting portions by two partition plates 11.
In this case, the two partition plates 11 are respectively attached to the side plates 9 of the fixed shelf 6.
By being located closer to each other and widening the gap between the left and right partition plates 11, the frontage dimension of the central mounting portion 6a is increased and the frontage size of the left and right mounting portions 6b is reduced.

[0013] Then, the central mounting portion 6 of the fixed shelf 6
On a, an auxiliary shelf 12 provided with a shelf plate 12b and two left and right drawers 12c between a pair of left and right side plates 12a is detachably mounted. The auxiliary shelf 12 is set to have a right and left width dimension so as to fit tightly on the center mounting portion. As shown in FIG. 5, both the left and right drawers 12c are supported by rails 14 provided on the partition plate 11 and the intermediate plate 13 of the fixed shelf 6 so as to be able to move back and forth. Most of the auxiliary shelves 12 are used in a state in which the auxiliary shelves 12 are in close contact with the back support plate 4, and therefore, the back shelf is not provided.

An attachment hole 18 with a bush I7 is formed in the shelf plate 10 of the fixed shelf 6 at a position on the left and right mounting portions as an example of a support portion for attaching the stand 16 to the lamp 15. . The stand 16 has a structure in which two support rods 16b that can be freely inserted and detached from the mounting hole 16 are connected to bend freely, and a lamp 15 with an umbrella is attached to the upper end so as to swing freely. When the stand 16 is horizontally rotated as a whole or the support rod 16b is bent, the position of the lamp 15 can be adjusted three-dimensionally.

FIG. 3 is a plan view of the fixed shelf 6, FIG. 4 (A) is a partial front view of the desk, and FIG. 4 (B) is a sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG. 4 (A), for example, as shown in FIG. In the rear support plate 4, the through holes 2 are provided at the positions of the left and right mounting portions on the fixed shelf 6 so that the cord 20 can be inserted and removed with the plug 19 attached.
1 is drilled. Also, the fixed shelf 6 of the back support plate 4
The plug 19 is also provided below the top plate 3 and near the right end.
A through hole 21 is provided to allow the cord 20 to be taken in and out while the cord is attached.

Further, an outlet 22 is attached to the lower surface of the fixed shelf 6 near the right end of the shelf 10. The plug 19 can be inserted into the outlet 22 from both front and rear directions. Therefore, the power supply cord 20 for the lamp 15 may be drawn out of the back support plate 4 through the through hole 21 once, pulled in again through the through hole 21 in front of the back support plate 4, and the plug 19 may be inserted into the outlet 22. ,
The code 20 does not get in the way. A decorative edge 23 is fixed to the front surface of the shelf plate 10 in the fixed shelf 6 (a part of the edge 23 in front of the outlet 21 is cut away, as shown in FIG. 4B).

As shown by a dashed line in FIG. 4 (B), a cap 24 made of a soft material such as rubber or soft synthetic resin is attached to the through hole 21, and the cap 24 is
The cut may be formed so as not to hinder the insertion and removal of the plug 19. As described above, the height of the back support plate 4 can be adjusted in two stages. At this time, the fixed shelf 6 approaches the top plate 3 at the low position (the gap between the side plate 9 of the fixed shelf 6 and the top plate 3 even in this state). Is set so that a certain distance is left between the fixed shelf 6 and the top plate 3 at a high position.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, the fixed shelf 6 is used at a high position and the auxiliary shelf is mounted on the fixed shelf 6 (higher grade children tend to prefer such a use form).
As shown in FIG. 6, the fixed shelf 6 is set at a high position, the auxiliary shelf 12 is removed, and the removed auxiliary shelf 12 and the rear support plate 4 are removed.
The auxiliary shelf 12 can be placed at any position on the top plate 3 in a state where the auxiliary shelf 12 is placed on the fixed shelf 6 with the auxiliary shelf 12 mounted thereon, as shown in FIG. Can be freely changed according to the height and preference of the user, the indoor layout, and the like. In this case, since the auxiliary shelf 12 is fitted into the mounting portion of the fixed shelf 6, the storage capacity of the fixed shelf 6 does not decrease due to the provision of the auxiliary shelf 12. Can be increased.

Further, since the back support plate 4 is formed to have the same lateral width as the top plate 3, it not only can firmly support the fixed shelf 6, but also can prevent a pencil or the like from rolling down behind the desk. . As in the embodiment, in a state where the fixed shelf 6 (and the back support plate 4) is set at a low position, a certain space is left between the left and right side plates 9 of the fixed shelf 6 and the top plate 3 of the desk body 1. If set, there is an advantage that the desk can be widely used even when the fixed shelf 6 is set at the low position.

In most cases, the auxiliary shelf 12 is used in a state in which the auxiliary shelf 12 is in close contact with the back support plate 4.
Even if the back plate is not provided, there is no problem in accommodating books and the like. In other words, the back support plate 4 is
Because the back plate is also used, the structure can be simplified accordingly. As described above, the embodiment of the present invention has been described. However, for example, only one partition plate 11 may be provided on the fixed shelf 6 to partition two right and left. Further, the stand of the lamp is not limited to the type that is inserted into the mounting hole as in the embodiment, and various other types such as a clamp type that is screwed to the side plate 9 of the fixed shelf 6 can be adopted. .
