Description

  The present invention relates to a cabinet.

  Generally, the rechargeable electric device B is charged by being attached to a charger installed in the cabinet 1 or the like. However, it is troublesome to take out the charger and install it every time it is charged. An embedded cabinet 1 has been conventionally considered (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  As shown in FIG. 13, in the counter-type cabinet 1 of Patent Document 1, a power feeding member 6 that feeds power to the rechargeable electric device B in a non-contact manner is provided inside the shelf board 40. A stationary member 41 for placing the rechargeable electric device B on the charging surface 4 on the power supply member 6 is placed. Thus, when charging the rechargeable electric device B, the rechargeable electric device B can be charged by being placed on the charging surface 4 by the stationary member 41, and the charger is taken out and installed every time the above charging is performed. You are free from complexity.

However, the storage space (storage unit 20) on the shelf plate 40 on which the stationary member 41 is placed serves as a dedicated storage unit 42 for storing and arranging the rechargeable electric device B exclusively. The stored item A could not be stored. That is, when the rechargeable electrical device B is not stored in the dedicated storage unit 42, it is impossible to store other storage items A other than the rechargeable electrical device B instead. There was a problem that would disappear.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

  An example of an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. In this example, a vanity table 10 using a cabinet 1 having a configuration unique to the present invention as a mirror cabinet 12 is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, this vanity table 10 is provided with a rising wall portion 14 for receiving water splash in the washing bowl 13 at the rear portion of the washing table 11 provided with the washing bowl 13, and on the front surface. The mirror cabinet 12 having the mirror 15 is mounted on the rising wall portion 14.

  Here, the wash bowl 13 of this example is made of resin, and a vertical plate-like rising wall portion 14 is integrally extended upward from the rear portion of the bowl portion 13a, and the central portion in the width direction of the rear portion of the bowl portion 13a. Then, the side surface rising from the bottom surface of the bowl portion 13a is continuously connected to the rising wall portion 14, and the pedestal portion 13b that is lowered by one step from the upper surface of the bowl portion 13a is formed at both ends in the width direction of the rear portion of the bowl portion 13a. It is erected from the bottom of the portion 13a.

  The mirror cabinet 12 includes a box-shaped cabinet 1 that opens forward and a door 16 that is disposed so as to close the front opening of the cabinet 1. The interior space of the cabinet 1 is divided into a plurality of storage portions 20 by vertical ribs 17 and horizontal ribs 18 that serve as shelves. A plurality of doors 16 (three in this example) are provided side by side in the width direction of the cabinet 1, and mirrors 15 are attached to the front surface of each door 16 over substantially the entire surface. It is a door 16. Each door 16 is pivotally supported so that one end in the width direction is pivotally supported by the cabinet 1 to open and close the storage portion 20. When the doors 16 on both sides are rotated forward, the doors 16 are opened. The mirror 15 can be formed in a three-sided mirror shape so as to face a user standing in front of the center of the vanity table 10 in the width direction. Each door 16 is attached to the cabinet 1 so that the lower end thereof is substantially in the same position as the lower end of the cabinet 1. In addition, an illuminating device 29 that can illuminate the front of the vanity 10 is placed on the upper end of the cabinet 1.

  At the lower end of the cabinet 1, a currant 21 is arranged at the center in the width direction. The currant unit 21 has a hot and cold water mixing tap, a water discharge pipe 22 and a water discharge operation rod 23. The hot and cold water mixing tap is connected to a hot water supply pipe or a water supply pipe that is piped in the wall of the building wall along the bathroom vanity 1 or in the rising wall portion 14. The water discharge pipe 22 is a part that discharges water mixed by a hot and cold water mixing tap. The water discharge operation rod 23 is a lever capable of operating the mixing ratio of the hot water and the amount of water discharged at the hot water mixing tap. Here, the hot and cold water mixing tap, which is a main component of the currant portion 21, is concealed by the cabinet 1 and the door 16. On the other hand, the water discharge pipe 22 and the water discharge operation rod 23 that hang down from the hot and cold water mixing tap protrude downward from the cabinet 1 and the door 16 and are viewed and used by a user in front of the vanity unit 10. The washing water discharged from the water discharge pipe 22 does not reach the base portion 13b but reaches the bottom surface of the bowl portion 13a. Therefore, the vanity table 10 of the present example is designed so that, when the door 16 is closed, the currant portion 21 that gives a complicated impression is prevented from appearing as much as possible so as not to hinder its use and operation. A simple appearance appears.

  Incidentally, the plurality of storage units 20 in the cabinet 1 are so-called general-purpose storage units 2 that can store arbitrary storage items A such as small items used in the toilet work and makeup work in the vanity table 10. One of the general-purpose storage units 2 is provided with a charging function capable of charging the stored rechargeable electrical device B in a non-contact manner without impairing the storage versatility that an arbitrary storage item A can be stored.

  Specifically, in this example, a feeding member 6 that feeds power to the rechargeable electrical device B in a non-contact manner is provided in part of the placement surface 3 on which the stored item A is placed in the general-purpose storage unit 2. Is provided. Here, as the rechargeable electric device B, for example, a barber device such as an electric toothbrush 38, an electric razor 39, and a hair removal processor, among which a power receiving member 7 that receives electricity from the power feeding member 6 and a power receiving member A battery equipped with a storage battery for storing the electricity received in 7 is mentioned. Also, a known non-contact type charging device composed of the power feeding member 6 and the power receiving member 7 can be used. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the power feeding member 6 and the power receiving member 7 are composed of coils 6a and 7a. Then, when these coils 6a and 7a are arranged to face each other, it is possible to use one in which electric movement (power transmission) is performed between the coils 6a and 7a by electromagnetic induction generated between the coils 6a and 7a. In addition, 6b in the figure is an electric wire that supplies power to the power supply member 6 from the back side of the cabinet 1. Further, in the rechargeable electric device B of this example, an output unit 30 that performs a tooth brushing operation, a hair removal operation, and the like is provided in the upper part, a grip part 31 is provided in the lower part, and the power receiving member 7 is housed in the grip part 31. . When the grounding surface at the lower end of the grip portion 31 is grounded on the charging surface 4, the power feeding member 6 and the power receiving member 7 are positioned at the opposite positions, and the power receiving member 6 to the power receiving member 7. Electricity is supplied to the battery.

  As described above, the charging surface 4 is provided on a part of the mounting surface 3 in the general-purpose storage unit 2, but the shape of the mounting surface 3 is not changed by providing the charging surface 4. The continuous shape is maintained, that is, the charging surface 4 is constituted by a part of the mounting surface 3. In this example, the mounting surface 3 is formed on the same horizontal plane over the entire surface including the charging surface 4. Therefore, when the place other than the charging surface 4 of the mounting surface 3 is referred to as a normal mounting surface 3a as shown in FIG. 1, the normal mounting surface 3a and the charging surface 4 are formed in a continuous shape. The stored item A can be placed individually on the normal placement surface 3 a and the charging surface 4, and can also be placed across the normal placement surface 3 a and the charging surface 4. That is, the charging surface 4 on the mounting surface 3 can be said to be a so-called shared mounting surface 3b on which any stored item A as well as the rechargeable electric device B can be placed without hindrance.

  As described above, in the cabinet 1 of this example, the rechargeable electric device B can be placed on the charging surface 4 provided on a part of the mounting surface 3 of the general-purpose storage unit 2 and charged. Since it is constituted by a part of the mounting surface 3 of the storage unit 2, when the rechargeable electric device B is not stored, various types of stored items A can be placed and stored in the general-purpose storage unit 2 instead. As described above, the general-purpose storage unit 2 is provided with a charging function of the rechargeable electric device B while ensuring storage versatility that an arbitrary storage item A can be stored. In addition, in this example, the mounting surface 3 of the general-purpose storage unit 2 including the charging surface 4 is formed in a horizontal plane. Therefore, even if the mounting surface 3 is dirty, it is easy to clean and clean it. The appearance of the simple general-purpose storage unit 2 can also appear. Furthermore, in this example, as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the charging surface 4 is located slightly in front of the central portion of the depth of the general-purpose storage unit 2, so The rechargeable electrical equipment B that is frequently used can be placed and charged on the charging surface 4 without being obstructed by the above-mentioned stored item A even when the stored item A remains on the mounting surface 3. The usability of the cabinet 1 is improved.

  Here, the charging surface 4 may be provided with positioning means 8 for positioning the rechargeable electric device B. The positioning means 8 can be constituted by a marking 24 applied to the charging surface 4 as shown in FIG. According to this, the rechargeable electric device B can be accurately positioned on the charging surface 4, and good charging efficiency can be ensured.

  The charging surface 4 may be provided with a holding means 9 for holding the rechargeable electric device B. As the holding means 9, for example, as shown in FIG. According to this, the rechargeable electric device B positioned on the charging surface 4 is held by being magnetized so that the magnets 25 and 25 facing each other between the rechargeable electric device B and the charging surface 4 are attracted to each other. It is possible to prevent the rechargeable electric device B positioned on the charging surface 4 from moving so as to lose its charging posture during the charging, and to reliably charge the rechargeable electric device B. it can. In addition, if the magnet 25 built in the rechargeable electric device B attracts the magnet 25 built in the charging surface 4, the rechargeable electric device B can be guided and positioned so as to be guided to the charging surface 4. In other words, it also functions as positioning means 8 with a guide function. One of the rechargeable electric device B and the magnet 25 provided on the charging surface 4 may be made of a magnetic material.

  Further, as the holding means 9, a protrusion 26 that can protrude and retract from the charging surface 4 is arranged as shown in FIG. 7, and the protrusion 26 that protrudes from the charging surface 4 is recessed in the grounding surface of the rechargeable electric device B. It can also be configured to be able to be fitted to the fitting recess 32. The protrusion 26 of this example includes a push button type latch mechanism. Specifically, the protrusion 26 is housed in a protrusion housing hole 26a formed from the charging surface 4, and as shown in FIG. 7A, the charging surface 4 is biased by a spring 27 housed in the protrusion housing hole 26a. 7b, once it is immersed in the charging surface 4 as shown in FIG. 7 (b), the immersion state in the charging surface 4 (protrusion housing hole 26a) is locked by the locking means. Then, if the protrusion 26 in the immersed state is further pushed into the charging surface 4 (protrusion housing hole 26 a) to release the locking by the locking means, the charging surface is biased by the spring 27. The operation in which the protrusion 26 protrudes from the protrusion 4 (protrusion housing hole 26a) is repeated in order.

  That is, the rechargeable electric device B is held on the charging surface 4 by fitting the fitting recess 32 of the rechargeable electric device B into the protrusion 26 protruding from the charging surface 4 as shown in FIG. Yes, the rechargeable electric device B can be charged reliably. In addition, when the fitting recess 32 is fitted to the protrusion 26, accurate positioning of the rechargeable electric device B on the charging surface 4 can be ensured, that is, it also functions as the positioning means 8. Moreover, the protrusion 26 of this example is immersed in the charging surface 4 as shown in FIG. 7B when the rechargeable electric device B is not stored, and the charging surface 4 is continuous with the normal placement surface 3a. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the storage of the arbitrary storage item A on the mounting surface 3 including the charging surface 4, and the storage versatility of the general-purpose storage unit 2 can be ensured.

  Further, the holding means 9 may be constituted by a small protrusion 28 protruding from the charging surface 4 as shown in FIG. For example, as shown in FIG. 8 (b), the hair-styling spray can 33 that can be the stored item A generally has a bottom portion, an annular rim portion 34 at the grounding portion, and a concave portion 35 that is recessed upward in a dome shape therein. It is formed. This hairdressing spray can 33 has a small protrusion 28 with a sufficiently small protruding height positioned in the recess 35 and grounds the rim portion 34 to the charging surface 4, so that the hair surface spray can 33 is placed on the charging surface 4 in the same manner as the normal placement surface 3 a. Can stand upright. That is, the storage versatility of the general-purpose storage unit 2 is ensured also by providing the holding means 9 on the charging surface 4.

  Moreover, although the mounting surface 3 illustrated what was formed in the horizontal surface in the precedent, the mounting surface 3 is formed in the shape suitable for putting down the arbitrary storage thing A sideways like FIG. 9, for example. It may be. The mounting surface 3 of this example has a bottom surface mounting surface 36 for mounting the bottom surface of the stored item A and a side surface mounting surface 37 for mounting the side surface of the stored item A, and the bottom surface mounting surface that is inclined with respect to each other. 36 and the side surface mounting surface 37 are connected at their lower ends to form a valley shape. In this example, the charging surface 4 is provided by providing the power supply member 6 on the bottom surface 36. Even in the mounting surface 3 constituted by the bottom surface mounting surface 36 and the side surface mounting surface 37, it is possible to place an arbitrary stored item A on its side, so that the general-purpose storage unit 2 can store Sex is provided.

  In the preceding example, the charging surface 4 is provided on a part of the placement surface 3, but the charging surface 4 may be provided on the side surface 19 or the ceiling surface 5 surrounding the general-purpose storage unit 2. For example, in the cabinet 1 of FIG. 10, the charging surface 4 is provided on the ceiling surface 5 of the general-purpose storage unit 2 with a power feeding member 6 provided therein. The charging surface 4 is provided with holding means 9 (see FIG. 6) constituted by a magnet 25. Therefore, the rechargeable electric device B is stored and charged in the general-purpose storage unit 2 so as to be suspended from the charging surface 4 of the ceiling surface 5 by the holding means 9 configured by the magnet 25. In addition, the ceiling surface 5 including the charging surface 4 is formed on the same horizontal plane.

  In the general-purpose storage unit 2 of this example, the charging surface 4 is provided on the ceiling surface 5 of the general-purpose storage unit 2 that is not involved in the storage property of storing the stored item A on the mounting surface 3. Various types of stored items A can be placed on the mounting surface 3 and stored in the general-purpose storage unit 2 without changing even if they are provided, and the general-purpose storage property is ensured. Thus, also in this example, the charging function of the rechargeable electric device B can be provided in the general-purpose storage unit 2 while ensuring the storage versatility.

  In the above embodiment, the charging surface 4 is provided at one location in the general-purpose storage unit 2, but the charging surface 4 may be provided at a number of locations in the general-purpose storage unit 2 as shown in FIG. Then, two charging surfaces 4 are arranged in parallel with a predetermined interval in the width direction of the general-purpose storage unit 2). Of course, you may provide the charging surface 4 with respect to the several general purpose storage part 2 which the cabinet 1 has. Further, as shown in FIG. 12, the coil 6a of the power supply member 6 is formed to have a sufficiently large diameter compared with the coil 7a of the power receiving member 7, and the charging surface 4 having a wider area than the grounding surface of the rechargeable electric device B is formed. It is also preferable to form. In this case, a plurality of rechargeable electric devices B can be positioned and charged with respect to the charging surface 4 in a wide area.
