BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a simple table wiring storage device that can efficiently store an excess length portion of wirings such as electric appliances used on or near a table below a table top plate. Is.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, with the spread of various electric appliances such as computers, video, and sound, a plurality of cables and cords are often wired in a complicated manner, and these devices are placed near the top of the table or below. When installed, the extra length of the wiring is likely to become complicated on the top and bottom of the table top.
[0003]
When such wirings are arranged in a complicated form around the table or in the lower space, not only the appearance deteriorates, but it disturbs the work on the table or causes the wiring to come off due to contact, etc. There are various inconveniences, and there is a demand for a storage device that can store these wires in an organized manner.
[0004]
Conventionally, various proposals have been made for this type of storage device. For example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-275045, a box-like or shelf-like wiring storage device can be pulled out via a rail on the lower surface of the top plate. The technology to support is disclosed. Thereby, the convenience of storing the wirings in an orderly manner using the lower surface of the top board is obtained.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the above-described conventional technology has a large configuration and a complicated configuration having a large number of parts, and thus cannot be used easily. In addition, since the storage device has a fixed shape such as a box shape or a shelf, the space on the lower surface of the table top is always occupied at a large rate, and the storage device is obstructive when the wiring is not stored. It is easy to become. In addition, the wirings are easily released in the storage unit, and the wirings hang down outside the box due to the elastic restoring force and external force of the wiring itself, and the appearance is likely to deteriorate.
[0006]
Furthermore, depending on the position of the shelf, the position of the opening for introducing the wiring, or the orientation, etc., the length of the wiring to the storage position becomes longer due to the arrangement of the electric appliance, for example, when the electric appliance is arranged on the table. In the case where it is arranged below, the wiring of the electric appliance in any arrangement may hang down.
[0007]
Furthermore, if the wiring is hidden in a box-like form, the stored state is difficult to see from the outside, so it takes time to organize and the outer surface is completely shielded, so the heat dissipation from the wiring is poor There are also problems such as.
[0008]
In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has a simple configuration, a small dedicated space under the top plate, and can be used properly for storage of wiring, non-storage, some of wiring, etc. Table wiring that does not get in the way, can easily respond to requests such as the direction and height of wiring when stored, and can reliably handle drooping of wiring etc. The object is to provide a storage device.
[0009]

FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of a table having a wiring storage device according to an embodiment of the present invention as viewed obliquely from below. 2 is a side view thereof, and FIG. 3 is a partially enlarged view of FIG.
[0019]
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the table (1) has a rectangular top plate (2), and the top plate (2) is connected to the support leg (3) via a connector (4). It is supported. For example, four screw holes (5) are provided at the four corners of the quadrangle as locking portions on the lower surface of the top plate (2) at a position close to one side edge, for example.
[0020]
A rectangular flexible sheet-like member (6) is provided for wiring storage. The sheet-like member (6) is mainly composed of a stretchable net (7) made of elastic fiber or the like, and a reinforcing band (thick flexible fiber or the like) is formed on the periphery of the net (7). 8) is integrally framed. The reinforcing band (8) has a slightly long square piece (9) at both end positions of two parallel sides, and the square piece (9) protrudes from the four corners of the sheet-like member (6).
[0021]
Each square piece (9) has an eyelet-shaped through hole (10) as a locked portion, and these through holes (10) are formed on the top plate (2) of the table (1). The arrangement corresponds to the screw hole (5) as the locking portion.
[0022]
As shown in detail in FIG. 4, the sheet-like member (6) is disposed on two parallel sides of the reinforcing band (8) of the sheet-like member (6) along a direction different from the protruding direction of the square piece (9). When the two parts are folded in half, a plurality of, for example, four, sets of fitting lock type hooks (11) are provided at a required interval as a closing tool capable of closing the mutually facing portions. The hook (11) is disposed, for example, with the both end positions of the reinforcing band (8) spaced.
[0023]
In such a configuration, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the sheet-like member (6) is in a tension state in which the entire surface is opposed to the lower surface of the top plate (2) of the table (1).
[0024]
In this case, the through-holes (10) at the four corners of the sheet-like member (6) are aligned with the screw holes (5) of the top plate (2), and decorative screws and the like that are part of the locking portion from below. The set screw (12) passes through the through hole (10) of the sheet-like member (6) and is screwed into each screw hole (5) of the top plate (2).
[0025]
As a result, the entire surface of the sheet-like member (6) is fixed to the lower surface of the top plate (2) in a stretched state, so that there is a slight gap between the lower surface of the top plate (2) and the sheet-like member (6). There is only a gap. Further, the sheet-like member (6) is in a state in which only downward expansion and contraction is allowed.
[0026]
5 to 7 show different usage patterns. FIG. 5 shows a state in which the sheet-like member (6) is folded in half and is viewed obliquely from above. FIG. 6 shows the folded sheet-like member (6) in a suspended state on the table (1). FIG. 7 shows a side view in a direction orthogonal to FIG. 6.
[0027]
As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, in this embodiment, the sheet-like member (6) is in a bent suspended state in which the substantially central portion is bent and hangs down. ).
[0028]
In this case, as shown in FIG. 7, the opposing square pieces (9) and (9) of the folded sheet-like member (6) are extended from the front-rear direction and superposed vertically. The two square pieces (9) and (9) are put together and fastened to one screw hole (5) of the top plate (2) with one set screw (12). The suspended position is set to, for example, two screw holes (5) and (5) at a position close to one side edge of the top plate (2), particularly the rear edge.
[0029]
Alternatively, both the square pieces (9) and (9) may overlap each other and be fastened by one set screw (12).
[0030]
In this case, the folding is performed in a direction in which two sides facing each other where the hooks (11) of the reinforcing band (8) are provided are matched, and the hooks (11) at the overlapping position are fitted and locked together. Thus, openings (13) are formed between the hooks (11) on both side edges of the folded sheet-like member (6).
[0031]
In the half-folded suspended state, the sheet-like member (6) can be freely expanded and contracted in the thickness direction.
[0032]
When it is not necessary to store the wirings, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the sheet-like member (6) is placed on the lower surface of the top plate (2) of the table (1).
Thereby, when not in use, the sheet-like member (6) is arranged in a state of sticking to the lower surface of the top plate (2), so that there is no protrusion that obstructs the bottom plate (2), and the table The lower part is maintained in a released state, and does not disturb the user or the like.
[0033]
Further, in this state, as described above, there is only a slight gap between the lower surface of the top plate (2) and the sheet-like member (6), and the sheet-like member (6) is moved downward. Since only expansion and contraction is allowed, for example, when there is a small amount of wiring such as electrical appliances installed on the top plate (2), the edge of the sheet-like member (6) is slightly lowered and opened. The wirings can be stored on the net (7) through the opening.
