BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a shelving plate stopper and a shelving plate mounting structure in furniture such as a sink, a cupboard or a hanging cabinet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, this kind of shelf board has been designed so that the user can change the mounting position according to the conditions of use and so on the inner surface of the left and right side boards facing each other such as a hanging cabinet or furniture. A pair of holes are vertically formed in a plurality of steps, and the pin 6 is inserted into the hole 11 having a desired height as shown in FIG.
A shelf was formed by placing the shelf board 3 on it.

However, when the shelf board 3 is attached, since the shelf board 3 is only placed on the pins 6, there is a problem that it is unstable and easily falls off. Therefore, as in the device of Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-15539 shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, an L-shaped fall prevention member 7 having a dowel protrusion 71a on a wood mouth surface 71 is provided.
There is one in which the front end of the shelf board 3 is locked by the upright side 72 by using the so as to prevent the shelf board 3 from moving forward. In addition, FIG.
As shown in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 56-162048, a screw operating member 80 is fixed to the lower surface of both end portions of the shelf plate 3, and a screw 90 for mounting the shelf plate is attached to the screw operating member 80 on the outside of the side of the shelf plate. Which is fixed to a desired position of the side plate by screwing the shelf plate erection screw 90 onto the side plate 1 of the furniture by screwing so as to project to the side plate, or the special feature shown in FIG. As in Kaihei 6-233711, the shelf receiving body 9 in which the lower surface opening 91 for receiving the pin 8 is opened and closed with the slide piece 92 is attached to the lower surface end portion of the shelf board 3 at a predetermined position, and is attached to the side board 1. In some cases, the shelf 8 is immovably fixed to the side plate 1 by holding the pin 8 held by the shelf receiving body 9.

Further, as a means for preventing the movement of the shelf board until the delivery of the goods, an actual Kaihei 5-9328 shown in FIG. 11 is used.
There is a device like the invention of No. 3 in which a shelf 300 is temporarily fixed to one side in a cabinet by using a temporary stopper 200 attached to the side plate 100. Note that, in FIG. 11, reference numerals 101 and 102 denote openings serving as mounting portions for the temporary fastener 200.

In the conventional mounting of the shelf plate described above, first, when the shelf plate is placed on the pins, if the diameter of the hole formed in the side plate is too large, the pins may easily come off. There is a possibility that the shelf plate may fall off when loading or unloading a stored item or when a heavy item is placed on the shelf. For this reason, the hole has a precision in the drilling process, which hinders the improvement of the manufacturing work efficiency and the cost reduction. In addition, since the load will be concentrated on the hole into which the pin is inserted when the shelf plate is attached, the side plate must have a hardness that does not allow the hole to be crushed, and the material is restricted. However, it is difficult to form holes, and it is difficult to reduce the cost of the product in this respect as well. Furthermore, in the case where the shelf board is placed on the pins in this way, the shelf board cannot be distributed as a product with the shelf board attached, and the shelf board must be separately packaged before shipping. However, there is a problem in that the packing material is wasted in many cases.

L shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-15539
With the mold fall prevention member, the front edge of the shelf board is locked at the upright side and the forward and backward movement of the shelf board is restricted, so there is no risk of the shelf board falling off during use, but the vertical direction. Since the shelf board can move freely, it is necessary to separately package the shelf board when it is distributed as a product, and there is a problem similar to the above-mentioned conventional example.

Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 56-162048 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 6-
In the one shown in No. 233711, since the shelf plate is fixed to the side plate via the screwing operation member, the shelf receiving body, etc., there is no problem as in the above-mentioned both conventional examples, but the screwing operation member or There is a problem that the efficiency of the assembling work is poor because the shelf receiving body has to be fixed at a predetermined position on the back surface of the shelf board.

Further, in the case of fixing the shelf board using the temporary fastener as in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-93283, it is not necessary to separately package the shelf board, and the labor and waste of the packing material in this aspect are saved. However, it requires a temporary fastener that can only be used in the distribution stage, and it also needs to process and form a mounting part for attaching this temporary fastener to the side plate, which is not always excellent in terms of cost. There wasn't.

The present invention aims to solve these conventional problems.

[0010]

According to the present invention, a pair of front and rear holes are vertically formed on the inner side surfaces of opposing left and right side plates of a hanging cabinet, furniture or the like, and a plurality of vertical holes are attached to these holes to attach a shelf plate. In order to fix it to the position of, the rear locking tool in which the holding pieces project above and below the other side surface of the plate-shaped base part having the boss projection on one side and the boss projection on one side The above-mentioned problem is solved by using a front engaging member in which an L-shaped engaging portion composed of an elastic piece and a lower surface supporting piece is provided on the other side surface of the plate-like base portion in a protruding manner.

Further, the mounting is carried out by inserting the boss projections of the rear engaging member into the holes provided near the rear parts of the left and right side plates so that the rear engaging member is rotatably attached to the side plate.
