Description

  The present invention relates to storage furniture suitably used as a cabinet, a wagon, a sleeve desk, a side desk or the like.

Conventionally, many storage furniture that can be used as cabinets, wagons, sleeve desks, side desks, and the like have been considered. As an example, storage furniture that can be used as a side desk by placing it on the side of a top plate such as a table or used as a sleeve drawer by being positioned in a lower space of the top plate (for example, Patent Document 1). This is a wagon-type storage furniture with multiple drawers on the front side and casters on the bottom plate, with the rear end of the top plate positioned in front of the rear end of the bottom plate and standing on the rear end of the bottom plate It has a configuration in which a horizontal shelf is extended forward and supported by a low back plate, and a curtain plate is arranged in a vertical position between the front end of the shelf and the rear end of the top plate. On the side, the articles are stored in the drawer, and on the rear side, the articles are placed on a shelf board, thereby effectively utilizing the dead space in the inner part of the housing.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-3227760

  However, in the storage furniture having such a configuration, the top plate is supported by the left and right side plates at the side end, but the back plate has different back and forth positions by interposing a shelf plate on the rear end side. Since only the plate and the curtain plate are disposed, it can be said that the top plate is substantially supported only by the pair of side plates. Therefore, especially when a heavy article is placed on the rear end side of the top plate, the top plate may be bent downward or bend in the middle, and in some cases, the entire storage furniture may be distorted. Since this storage furniture has multiple drawers, the rigidity of the storage furniture as a whole is relatively strong, and it is considered that the problems described above are unlikely to occur. Problems are considered particularly likely.

  In view of the above problems, the present invention is intended to provide storage furniture that can be used as an effective storage space not only in the original storage space but also in the back side while increasing the support strength for the top plate. is there.

That is, storage furniture of the present invention includes a top plate, a bottom plate, a pair of right and left side plates, comprising a body portion formed by forming a receiving space which is open forward by the back plate, the back plate, a top plate is directly interposed between the bottom plate and top plate, there is that arranged being displaced forward from the rear end of the bottom plate and a pair of side plates, the main body portion at the back side of the back plate, the A back panel is provided which partially shields the rear space formed by the back plate and the rear end portions of the top plate, the bottom plate and the pair of side plates from the back side .

  If it is a storage furniture of such a configuration, because the back plate is directly interposed between the top plate and the bottom plate, and the back plate is positioned forward of the rear end of the top plate and the bottom plate, The top plate can be substantially supported by a pair of left and right side plates and a back plate, so that the load resistance of the top plate can be improved, and the top plate can be bent and bent, and the entire storage furniture can be effectively distorted. Can be prevented. This is particularly effective when the storage space is a storage furniture in which the storage space is always opened forward without a door, a drawer end plate, or the like arranged on the front end side of the main body. Further, since the back plate exists in front of the rear ends of the top plate, the bottom plate, and the side plate, the space on the back side of the back plate can also be used effectively as a storeroom or the like.

Furthermore, a back surface that partially shields the rear space, which is formed by the back plate and the rear end portions of the top plate, the bottom plate, and the pair of side plates, on the back side of the back plate and is opened rearward from the back side. Since the panel is provided, a space with a relatively small depth such as the back side of the back plate as described above can be used particularly effectively, for example, such a rear space is preferably used as a magazine rack or a table. In this case, a plurality of back panels can be arranged vertically or horizontally.

In order to improve the usability of the storage space while further improving the functions of improving the load resistance of the top plate, preventing the top plate from being bent or bent, or distortion of the entire storage furniture, It is desirable to provide a partition plate that can be detachable in the direction, the horizontal direction or the vertical and horizontal directions.

  And even if it provides such a back panel, in order not to change the size of the storage furniture as a whole, the rear end of the back panel can be positioned at the same position as the rear end of the main body or in front of it. preferable.

  In addition, in order to be able to arrange the rear panel appropriately without inadvertently narrowing the rear space, the rear panel extends forward from the face plate portion between the pair of side plates and both ends of the face plate portion. It is good to form the engaging part which mutually engages each of these side wall parts and each side plate corresponding to them as what comprises a pair of left and right side wall parts. In order to realize a simple structure as such an engaging portion, the engaging portion is composed of a pin protruding to the inner surface side of each side plate and an engaging groove formed in each side wall portion so as to engage with the pin. It is effective to do.

According to the storage furniture of the present invention, the top plate in the main body portion having the storage space is arranged by a pair of left and right side plates at the side end portion, and at the rear end portion side by a back plate at a position slightly ahead of the rear end. Since it is supported and the back plate is directly interposed between the top plate and the bottom plate, even if a heavy object is placed on the top plate, it can effectively prevent bending and bending, and distortion of the main body etc. It is also possible to prevent the deformation. Furthermore, a back surface that partially shields the rear space, which is formed by the back plate and the rear end portions of the top plate, the bottom plate, and the pair of side plates, on the back side of the back plate and is opened rearward from the back side. Since the panel is provided, a space with a relatively small depth such as the back side of the back plate as described above can be used particularly effectively, for example, such a rear space is preferably used as a magazine rack or a table. This is particularly effective in the storage furniture in which a door is not provided on the front end side of the main body and a drawer is not provided in the main body. In addition, since the back plate exists in front of each rear end of the top plate, the bottom plate, and the side plate, the rear space in the main body portion on the back side of the back plate can also be used effectively as a storage .

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

It can be used as a wagon, cabinet, sleeve desk, side desk, etc., and is configured so that both the front side space and the back side space can be used. That is, the storage furniture 1 has a storage space S1 in which articles can be taken in and out from the front as in normal storage furniture, and a rear space S2 that can be used as a magazine rack or the like can be set on the back side. Main body 2 is a rectangular housing.

  The main body 2 includes a top plate 21 and a bottom plate 22 that are opposed to each other in the vertical direction and form a pair, and a pair of left and right side plates 23 that are disposed vertically between both end portions of the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22. , 23 and a back plate 24 disposed between the top and bottom plates 21 and 22 in the vertical direction on the rear end side and between the side plates 23 and 23 in the width direction. In particular, casters 25 are attached to the bottom corners of the bottom plate 22 so that the storage furniture 1 can move independently. The size and material of the top plate 21, bottom plate 22, side plates 23 and 23, and back plate 24 are arbitrary, and assembling them can be carried out appropriately by screwing, nailing, doweling, slit insertion, adhesive application, etc. The method can be adopted. In the present embodiment, the back plate 24 is located at a position substantially equal to the rear end 21a of the back plate 21, the rear end 22a of the bottom plate 22, and the rear end 23a of each side plate 23 from the front (for example, several centimeters). Placed in position. In this way, the internal space of the main body 2 is divided into a storage space S1 opened forward on the front side of the back plate 24, and a rear space S2 opened rearward on the back side of the back plate 24. It is divided into. Note that, on the storage space S1 side of the main body 2, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), a vertical partition plate 31 that partitions the storage space S1 left and right, and a horizontal partition plate 32 that partitions the storage space S1 up and down, Alternatively, both the vertical partition plate 31 and the horizontal partition plate 32 can be arranged. The vertical partition plates 31 and the horizontal partition plates 32 may be optionally provided later on the main body 2 or may be provided in advance. In particular, when the horizontal partition plate 32 is provided, the horizontal partition plate 32 may be placed on the positioning pins 33 (see FIG. 3) provided on the inner side surface of the side plates 23 and 23 of the main body 2 and the side surface of the vertical partition plate 31. . Moreover, the arrangement position of the vertical partition plate 31 in the width direction in the main body 2 and the arrangement position of the horizontal partition plate 32 in the height direction in the main body 2 are not limited to the center portions as shown in the figure, but are used capacity of the storage space S1. It can be set appropriately depending on the situation.

  On the other hand, in order to use the rear space S2 of the main body 2 as a magazine rack or a stand, the main body 2 can be provided with a back panel 4. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the back panel 4 obtained by bending a metal plate is used as an example. The rear panel 4 has a width dimension substantially matching the inner dimension of the pair of side plates 23, 23 and a height smaller than the inner dimension of the rear space S2 (for example, about 1/3 to 1/2). A face plate portion 41 having dimensions, side wall portions 42 and 42 in which both side end portions of the face plate portion 41 are bent at a substantially right angle, and a bottom wall portion 43 in which a lower end portion of the face plate portion 41 is bent in the same direction as the side plate portion 42. Composed. A large number of holes 41a are formed in the face plate portion 41 so that magazines, documents M, and other articles stored in the rear space S2 can be seen through the holes 41a, as indicated by imaginary lines in FIG. ing. In order to attach such a back panel 4 to the main body 2, pins p are projected on the inner side surfaces of the side plates 23, 23 of the main body 2, and each of the back panels 4 is hooked to the pins p. An engaging groove 42a is formed in the side wall part 42, and the engaging part K is constituted by the pin p and the engaging groove 42a. Here, in this embodiment, in order to arrange the back panel 4 on the lower end side of the rear space S2, the lower end portion 41b of the face plate portion 41 or the lower surface of the bottom wall portion 43 abuts on the upper surface of the bottom plate 21 or more. The arrangement position of the pin p and the engagement groove 42a is determined so as to be a slightly floating position, but it is also possible to provide the back panel 4 at a position higher than such an aspect, A plurality of back panels 4 may be arranged with different heights in the vertical direction. Further, the rear panel 41c of the face plate portion 41 is connected to the rear end 21a of the top plate 21, the bottom plate 22, and the side plates 23, 23 of the main body portion 2 so that the rear panel 4 does not protrude rearward from the main body portion 2. The depth dimension of the side wall portion 43 and the position of the engaging portion K are set so as to substantially match with 22a and 23a or to be positioned slightly forward of them.

  As described above, the storage furniture 1 of the present embodiment has the back plate 24 directly interposed between the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22, and the rear ends 21 a and 22 a of the top plate 21, the bottom plate 22, and the side plates 23 and 23. The top plate 21 is supported not only on the side plates 23 and 23 but also on the back plate 24 in front of the rear end 21a. Therefore, it can endure a large load and can effectively prevent the top plate 21 from being bent or bent, and the main body 2 from being distorted or broken. And since it is such a structure, although the storage space S1 which fulfill | performs the main storage function of the main-body part 2 is always in the state open | released ahead, the above-mentioned function becomes a very effective thing. Further, when the vertical partition plate 31 and the horizontal partition plate 32 are provided, such a function can be made more effective, and the storage space S1 can be partitioned to improve the usability thereof.

  Further, depending on the arrangement position of the back plate 24, the main body 2 can also exhibit the storage function in the rear space S <b> 2 formed on the back side of the back plate 24. Since the rear panel 4 that partially closes the rear space S2 from the back side is provided, the rear space S2 having a relatively small depth dimension can be used as a magazine rack or the like. Further, since the rear panel 4 is arranged so as to be accommodated in the main body 2, the size of the storage furniture 1 itself is not changed. Further, the back panel 4 has a face plate portion 41 and side wall portions 42, 42 as main components thereof, and engages with a pin p between the side plates 23, 23 of the main body portion 2 and the side wall portions 42, 42. Since the engaging portion K composed of the groove 42a is formed, the rear panel 4 can be easily attached and detached according to the necessity with a simple configuration.
