Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a bookshelf that can prevent a book placed with its cover facing forward on the upper surface of a shelf board from sliding forward.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In a normal bookcase in which a plurality of upper and lower shelf plates are horizontally mounted between the left and right side plates, it is common to place the back cover of the book facing forward on the shelf plate. .
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In order to appeal the contents of a book, it is effective to place the cover up against the top surface of the shelf and the back plate with the cover facing forward.
[0004]
However, when the cover is placed on a normal book shelf with the cover facing forward, there is a problem that the book slides down from the top surface of the shelf board even if the book shelf is slightly shaken.
[0005]
In order to solve this problem, it has been considered to provide an upward stopper piece for preventing slipping on the upper surface of the shelf board, but in this way, a normal back cover is placed forward and When doing so, the stopper piece gets in the way.
[0006]
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and by providing a simple non-slip means on the top surface of the shelf board, the book can be placed with the cover facing forward, and the back cover is attached. It is an object of the present invention to provide a bookshelf that can perform a normal placement form facing forward without any trouble.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the bookshelf according to the present invention has a shelf plate between both side plates, and a book shelf having a contact plate at the center of the upper end of both side plates, and the left and right ends of the front and rear ends of the top surface of the shelf plate A concave groove is provided, and the lower end edge in the width direction of the book can be supported in the concave groove, and a support member having anti-slip means is fitted on the upper surface, and the upper end of the anti-slip means is attached to the shelf plate. It is characterized by being equal to or lower than the upper surface .
According to the bookshelf of the above configuration, when the lower end edge in the width direction of the book is supported by the upper surface of the support member, the book placed with the cover facing outward is more than the shelf board because it is locked by the non-slip means. It can be stored from both the front and rear sides without sliding down, and a normal placement form with the spine facing outward can also be adopted.
[0008]
In the bookshelf, the anti-slip means is preferably made of any one of a concave strip, a large number of concave and convex strips, a large number of small protrusions, and a rubber plate.
In this way, any of the anti-slip means can be formed relatively easily and inexpensively, and the effect of anti-slip is great.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a bookshelf according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is an enlarged vertical side view of a line II-II in FIG. The front and rear two back plates 4 and 4 are fixed to an intermediate portion in the front-rear direction between the side plates 3 and slightly between the front and rear side plates 2 and the intermediate side plates 3 of each back plate 4. By attaching a plurality of shelf boards 5 in an upwardly inclined manner, the book B can be stored from both the front and back sides.
[0011]
Wide shelf plates 6, 6 that also serve as a top plate are attached to the upper part between the side surface plates 2 and the intermediate side surface plate 3 so that the central portion of the lower surface abuts the upper ends of the front and rear back plates 4. ing. Further, at the center of the upper end between the side surface plates 2 and the intermediate side surface plate 3, elongated plate-like back support plates 7, 7 are attached.
[0012]
The left and right concave grooves 8 formed at the front and rear ends of the upper surfaces of the upper shelf boards 6 support the lower end of the book B with the cover placed outward, that is, forward and rearward. A support member 9 that prevents sliding down from 6 is fitted.
[0013]
As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 3, the support member 9 has a vertical dimension that is substantially the same as the depth of the concave groove 8, and has an upper surface as anti-slip means that expands into a V shape with the bottom surface being a flat surface. Is formed over the entire length in the left-right direction.
[0014]
The lower half of the support member 9 has a pair of foot pieces 11 and 11 that are elastically deformed in the front-rear direction with both front and rear serrated surfaces, and are recessed while slightly bending both foot pieces 11 inward. By fitting into 8, a strong retaining is achieved.
[0015]
The support member 9 is made of, for example, aluminum or an alloy thereof, a synthetic resin, or the like that can be easily extruded.
[0016]
As shown in FIG. 2, the back of the book B is slanted against the back plate 7 and the lower end of the hard cover on the back is in contact with the inclined surface in front of the recess 10 of the support member 9 as shown in FIG. By doing so, the lower end of the book B is locked and it is prevented that the book B slides down from the shelf board 6. In the above embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the recess 10 may be an arc.
[0017]
In the said embodiment, since the supporting member 9 is the same surface as the upper surface of the shelf board 6, as shown in FIG. 2, the normal mounting form which orient | assigned the spine cover of the book B to the front can also be taken without trouble. it can.
[0018]
4 to 6 show modified examples of the support member. The support member 12 shown in FIG. 4 is formed by forming a number of concave and convex strips 13 having a sawtooth cross section on the upper surface substantially the same shape as the support member 9 in the left-right direction. Yes.
[0019]
The support member 14 shown in FIG. 5 has a large number of small protrusions 15 protruding from the upper surface instead of the ridges 13 so as to prevent the book from slipping by the frictional force.
[0020]
The support member 16 shown in FIG. 6 has a rubber plate 17 having a large friction coefficient adhered to the upper surface, and the friction force of the book prevents the book from slipping.
[0021]
In addition, the tops of the projections and depressions 13 and the small protrusions 15 and the upper surface of the rubber plate 17 in the support members 12, 14, and 16 are not projected from the upper surface of the shelf plate 6. It is also possible to adopt a normal mounting form directed toward the head.
[0022]
In the above embodiment, an example in which the support members 9, 12, 14, and 16 are provided on the uppermost shelf 6, but it is needless to say that support members may also be provided on the lower shelf 5. . The present invention can also be applied to an upright book shelf in which the back plate is vertical and the shelves of each step are horizontal.
[0023]
Although the support member has the foot piece 11, a support member having a rectangular cross section without the foot piece 11 may be simply press-fitted into the concave groove 8 and fixed.
[0024]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, the following effects can be achieved.
[0025]
(A) According to the invention described in claim 1, when the lower end edge in the width direction of the book is supported by the upper surface of the support member, it is locked by the non-slip means, so that the cover is placed facing outward. The placed book can be stored from both the front and rear sides without sliding down from the shelf, and a normal placement form with the spine facing outward can also be taken.
[0026]
(B) According to the invention described in claim 2, any anti-slip means can effectively prevent the book from slipping, and both can be formed relatively easily and inexpensively.
