However, in such a case, due to play with respect to the rail of the drawer, the clearance between the drawer and the side plate is not always constant when pushed in, and the position of the end plate of the drawer tends to shift from side to side and become uneven. In particular, if a handle is provided in a part of the drawer, the handle is conspicuous, which promotes a messy feeling as a whole. Moreover, since the drawer is usually made of a hard resin, and the housing and the main body of the storage device are made of metal, there is a problem that the drawer end plate collides with the side plate of the storage furniture main body and generates a cheesy noise.

An object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement box with drawers that suitably solves such problems.

In order to achieve this object, the present invention takes the following measures.

That is, the arrangement box with drawers of the present invention forms a storage space inside a housing consisting of at least a top plate, a bottom plate, and left and right side plates, and the left and right side plates are connected to the storage space by a bottom plate, a mirror plate, and a rear wall. A drawer with a drawer that supports the drawer with the structure so that it can be put in and out,
At least part of the front end surfaces of the left and right side plates constituting the casing are formed with inclined surfaces that are inclined obliquely rearward from the outer surface side to the inner surface side of the side plates, and both left and right ends of the end plates constituting the drawer A horizontal plate-shaped rib that forms a triangle is integrally provided at the corner of the rear side of the portion and the outward facing portion provided along the upper edge of the side plate that constitutes the drawer, and the slope is formed on a part of the rib. Set the inclined surface parallel to the surface, and when the drawer is pushed in, these inclined surfaces are brought into contact with each other and the front surface of the end plate is positioned between the front end surfaces of the left and right side plates Features.

With such a configuration, when the drawer is pushed in, the drawer is guided to the center part of the housing by the guide action by the inclined surface, so even if it is operated randomly, a plurality of drawers can be arranged in an orderly manner, In addition, since the inclined surfaces are taper-engaged, a good storage state without backlash can be obtained. In addition, even if the drawer is pushed in, the front end surfaces of the left and right side plates are exposed forward, so that the pushing position can be recognized at a glance, and the loading / unloading operation can be performed with an accurate operational feeling.

In order to improve the feeling of use, the side plate of the housing is made of a side plate member made of a hard material, and a contact member made of a soft material attached along the front edge of the side plate member. It is desirable that the inclined surface of the drawer made of a hard material is brought into contact with the inclined surface of the contact member.

In order to improve mass productivity, it is desirable that the hard material and the soft material are made of resin.

It should be noted that the “hard material” and the “soft material” in the present invention only need to have a relative hardness difference between the one and the other, and the soft material side collides when the soft material side and the hard material side come into contact with each other. It is assumed that it has a difference in hardness that absorbs and improves the operational feeling, thereby solving the above problems.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, when the drawers are housed, the drawers are arranged naturally without rattling, exhibit an orderly appearance, and provide a new and useful drawer when the drawer is pushed in. It is possible to provide an attached sorting box.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
The arrangement box with drawers of this embodiment is an assembly type as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, and the left and right side plates 1 mainly composed of the side plate members 10 made of a hard resin material are similarly top plates 2 made of a hard resin material.

Further, in this embodiment, in order to allow the drawer 5 to be properly pushed into the storage space S of the casing A, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 13, the side plate constituting the side plate 1 of the casing A is used. An abutting member 100 having a substantially triangular cross section made of a soft resin material is attached along the front edge of the member 10, and the abutting member 100 attaches the front end surface 100 a of the side plate 1 to the inner surface 1 q side from the outer surface 1 p side of the side plate 1. An inclined surface 100b that is inclined obliquely rearward is formed.

On the other hand, inclined surfaces 56 that are parallel to the inclined surface 100b are formed from the back surface 53a to the rear at the left and right ends of the end plate 53 of the drawer 5.

Then, when the drawer 5 is pushed in, the inclined surfaces 100b and 56 are brought into contact with each other, and the front end surface 100a of the side plate 1 is not completely covered by the end plate 53 so that a part of the front surface (in FIG. The end plate 53 is positioned between the front end faces 100a, 100a of the left and right side plates 1 exposed in the direction of arrow X). In other words, even if the drawer 5 is pushed in, the front end surface 100a of the side plate 1 constituting the housing A is in a state that can be seen from the front. The inclined surface 56 of the present embodiment is formed by a horizontal plate-like rib 56 a provided at the corner of the rear surface of the end plate 53 of the drawer 5 and the outward piece 51 of the side plate 51 of the drawer 5.

Here, the term “hard” or “soft” means relative hardness. In addition, appropriate ribs may be provided on the inner surfaces of the side plate 1, the top plate 2, the bottom plate 3 and the back plate 4 as necessary.

As described above, the arrangement box with drawers of the present embodiment forms the storage space S inside the housing A including the top plate 2, the bottom plate 3, and the left and right side plates 1 . A drawer 5 having a structure in which a side plate 51 is connected by a bottom plate 52, a mirror plate 53 and a rear wall 54 is supported so as to be able to be put in and out. And the inclined surface 100a which inclines back diagonally toward the inner surface side from the outer surface side of the side plate 1 is formed on at least a part of the front end surface 100a of the left and right side plates 1 constituting the casing A , and the drawer 5 is configured. A horizontal plate-like rib 56a that forms a triangle is integrated with the rear corners of the left and right end portions of the end plate 53 and the protruding corners of the outward facing piece 50 provided along the upper edge of the side plate 51 that constitutes the drawer 5. An inclined surface 56 that is parallel to the inclined surface 100a is set in a part of the rib 56a, and when the drawer 5 is pushed in, the inclined surfaces 100a and 56 are brought into contact with each other, so that the front surface of the end plate 53 Is positioned between the front end surfaces 100a, 100a of the left and right side plates 1 that are exposed forward.

If comprised in this way, since the drawer 5 will be guide | induced to the center part of the housing | casing A by the guide effect | action of the inclined surfaces 100a and 56, when pushing in the drawer 5, even if it operates casually, several drawers 5 are ordered. In addition, since the inclined surfaces 100a and 56 are taper-engaged with each other, it is possible to realize a good storage state without rattling. In particular, since the arrangement box with drawers is arranged at a position that is easily noticeable, such as on a desk, and is frequently used, the effect of the present invention is extremely great. In addition, even if the drawer 5 is pushed in, the front end surfaces 100a of the left and right side plates 1 are in a state of being forwardly exposed, so that it can be recognized at a glance whether or not they are in an appropriate pushing position from the positional relationship with the front end surface 100a. Thus, it is possible to perform the entry / exit operation with an accurate feeling of operation.

In particular, the side plate 1 of the housing A is composed of a side plate member 10 made of a hard material and a contact member 100 having a substantially triangular cross section made of a soft material attached along the front edge of the side plate member 10. Since the inclined surface 56 of the drawer 5 made of a hard material is brought into contact with the inclined surface 100b of the contact member 100, the side plate member 10 and the drawer 5 are in direct contact with each other even if they have high rigidity. It is possible to effectively prevent the generation of abnormal noise, and to wipe off the cheap feeling of use.

In addition, since the hard material and the soft material are made of resin, it can be easily mass-produced by molding.

The specific configuration of each unit is not limited to the above-described embodiment.

For example, the drawer is composed of a drawer body made of a hard material and an abutting member having a substantially triangular cross section made of a soft material attached to the rear facing surfaces at both left and right ends of the drawer body. Even if the surface is brought into contact with the inclined surface of the side plate made of a hard material, the same effect as in the above embodiment can be obtained.

Of course, also in this case, it is possible to effectively increase the mass productivity by making the hard material and the soft material made of resin.

Other configurations can be variously modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
