No. 6-14572 JP 2001-161449 A

  However, the device described in Patent Document 1 is a device that covers wiring rather than a storage tool, and has a structure in which the frame is vertically penetrated. Therefore, it is necessary to take out the wiring from below the frame. Workability is poor. In addition, for example, when an object that generates heat, such as an AC adapter, is stored, it does not have a heat dissipation property that releases heat.

  Since the thing of the said patent document 2 consists of a complete box body with which the upper and lower sides and four sides of the storage part were covered, wiring cannot be pulled out to the downward direction of a top plate from a top plate attachment storage tool. This also does not have the above heat dissipation.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and a top plate mounting / container that can easily perform wiring work of electrical equipment and has good heat dissipation while allowing the top plate to look good. The purpose is to provide.

A top plate mounting / retaining tool according to the present invention is a top plate mounting / retaining tool attached to a top plate opening provided on the top plate, and a pair of frame parts fitted to both ends of the top plate opening. The storage plate member is configured to have a substantially L-shaped cross section and is sandwiched between the pair of frame body portions, and a cover portion that covers the upper portion of the storage plate member.
According to this, it is attached in a state of being fitted in the opening of the top plate, and since the upper portion of the storage plate material is covered with the cover portion, when the top plate is viewed from above, it is stored in the top plate mounting storage tool Can not be seen, can improve the appearance on the top board.
In addition, since the storage plate material has a substantially L-shaped cross section, an open space is formed when sandwiched between the pair of frame parts, and wiring work for electrical equipment can be easily performed using this space. In addition, the open space can be a heat radiating space and can have a heat radiating property.

In the present invention, the cover portion may include a lid body held by the frame body portion and a soft elastic piece cantilevered by the storage plate member.
According to this, since the elastic piece has elasticity, for example, when pulling out the wiring from inside the top plate mounting / accommodating tool, the elastic piece can be easily deformed from any position without opening and closing the entire cover part. The wiring can be pulled out. At this time, since the elastic piece is made of soft material, the wiring is not damaged. Even in this case, since the upper portion of the storage plate is covered by the lid body that is locked to the frame body portion, what is stored in the top plate mounting / accommodating tool cannot be seen, and the appearance is good.

In the present invention, the lid may be detachably attached.
According to this, even after attaching the top plate mounting / accommodating tool to the top plate opening, if only the lid is attached / detached, it is easy to store or take out the stored items.

In the present invention, the frame body portion may have a heat radiation space.
According to this, when storing what discharges heat, such as an AC adapter, it is possible to dissipate heat from the heat radiation space of the frame portion. The wiring can also be drawn from here.

  According to the top plate mounting / accommodating tool according to the present invention, the wiring work of the electric equipment can be facilitated and the heat can be radiated while the top plate can be looked good.

Note that a reinforcing rib 22 that reinforces and supports the outward flange 21 and the frame body 20 may be formed below the outward flange 21. The illustrated example shows an example in which three flaky reinforcing ribs 22 are formed on one frame body portion 2.

The storage plate material 3 is formed by processing a metal plate material such as aluminum or a heat-resistant resin material into a substantially L-shaped cross section, and includes a bottom plate 30 and a side plate 31, and is attached to the top plate opening 50. It is sandwiched between a pair of frame parts 2 so that an opening space is formed on the front side (on the opposite wall side). In the installed state of the top plate mounting / accommodating tool 1, the bottom plate 30 is arranged substantially parallel to the floor surface (not shown), and the side plate 31 is arranged substantially parallel to the wall surface.
Each of the side edges 3b and 3c in the longitudinal direction of the storage board 3 is bent, and as shown in FIG. 3, the side edge 31b on the side of the side plate 31 to which the cover portion 3 is attached is bent outward. Has been processed. As shown in FIG. 3 (a), the end of the elastic piece 41 in the cover portion 3 is attached between the bent portion of the end side 3 b and the top plate 5, whereby the elastic piece 41 is attached. The storage plate 3 is cantilevered.
As shown in FIG. 1 and the like, the end 3c in the longitudinal direction on the bottom plate 30 side is bent upward, and this end 3c is fitted in the above-described joining projection 20b. Two through-holes 3a having a shape are formed.
Further, a total of four through holes 3a are formed also on the side plate 31 side, all of which are formed so as to be fitted to the joint protrusions 20b.

The cover portion 4 includes a lid body 40 held by the frame body portion 2 and an elastic piece 41 that is cantilevered and supported by the storage plate material 3. The cover portion 4 covers the upper portion of the storage plate material 3, and the upper portion of the top plate 5. When viewed from the side, the one accommodated in the top board mounting / retaining tool 1 is made invisible.
The lid 40 is made of a resin material and the elastic piece 41 is made of an elastically deformable material such as a rubber material or a soft resin material.

Both the lid 40 and the elastic piece 41 are formed along the longitudinal direction of the storage plate 3 so as to cover the upper side of the storage plate 3 as shown in FIG. And in the installation state of the top-plate attachment storage tool 1, the cover body 40 is attached to this side, and the elastic piece 41 is attached to the back side (wall surface side).
As described above, the lid 40 is formed with the protrusion 40a so as to be fitted to the cover fitting portion 20d of the frame 2.
If the ridge 40a is pushed into the cut groove 20e of the cover fitting portion 20d, the lid 40 is mounted, while the end of the lid 40 is held to release the fitted state of the ridge 40a. If it does so, it is comprised so that the cover body 40 can be removed easily. According to this, even after attaching the top plate mounting / accommodating tool 1 to the top plate opening 50, only the lid 40 can be detachable.

The elastic piece 41 has an end side 3b of the storage plate member 3 on one side and a holding portion 41a formed so as to be sandwiched between the end side 3b and the top plate 5 and an elastically supported cantilever. In order to maintain the holding state of the piece 41, a support portion 41 b formed along the longitudinal direction of the side plate 31 of the storage plate material 3 is formed.
In this way, the elastic piece 41 is cantilevered and the one end constitutes a free end. Therefore, when the wiring 70 is pulled out on the top plate 5 as shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. The piece 41 is elastically deformed and the front side 41c is bent. Therefore, at this time, a gap is formed between the lid 40 and the elastic piece 41 so that the wiring 70 is drawn out, but the lid 40 is installed on the near side and the elastic piece 41 is installed on the back side. Since the gap is not visible from the front side of the top plate 5 and the one stored in the top plate mounting / accommodating tool 1 is not visible, the appearance can be improved. Further, since the elastic piece 41 is made of a soft material, the wiring 70 is not damaged. Furthermore, according to this, wiring can be pulled out from an arbitrary position between the lid 40 and the elastic piece 41, and the degree of freedom of wiring is high unlike a wiring hole being formed. And when there is no wiring etc. which especially draw out, it can be set as the state where the cover 40 and the elastic piece 41 were block | closed.

Next, an example of mounting and use of the top board mounting / retaining tool 1 will be described.
Here, a description will be given based on an example in which the table tap 6 is accommodated in the top plate mounting / accommodating tool 1, the AC adapter 7 is connected to the table tap 6, and the wiring 70 is drawn out to the top plate 5.
First, for assembling the top plate mounting / accommodating tool 1, first, the frame body portions 2 are respectively attached to both ends of the storing plate material 3. At this time, it is only necessary to fit the joint protrusion 20b of the frame body portion 2 into the through hole 3a of the storage plate member 3, so that the frame body portion 2 can be easily attached to both ends of the storage plate member 3.
Next, the elastic piece 41 is attached to the end side 3 b of the storage plate member 3.
Then, this is fitted into the top plate opening 50 from above the top plate 5.
At this time, the lid 40 is not attached yet, and the upper portion of the storage plate 3 is left open.
Subsequently, the table tap 6 is placed on the bottom plate 30 of the storage plate material 3.
Here, the table tap 6 may be stored from the top opening 50 side. As shown in FIG. 5, the top plate mounting / accommodating tool 1 has an open space in the installed state. The tap 6 may be stored.
And the plug wiring 60 of the table tap 6 is pulled out from the heat radiation space 20a of the frame 2 and connected to an outlet (not shown) provided on the wall surface, for example.

Next, an AC adapter 7 of an electric device (not shown) installed on the top plate 5 is connected to an insertion port of the table tap 6.
Then, the protrusion 40a of the lid 40 is fitted into the cut groove 20e of the frame body 2 to cover the upper side of the storage plate 3, and the wiring 70 of the electric device is pulled out from the elastic piece 41 side. Thereby, the storage of the table tap 6 in the top plate mounting storage tool 1 is completed.
In addition, although the example which accommodates the table tap 6 was demonstrated here, what is accommodated in the top-plate attachment accommodating tool 1 is not specifically limited.
Further, here, an example has been described in which the wiring 60 drawn to the outlet provided on the wall surface or the like is drawn from the heat radiation space 20a. However, when the wiring 60 needs to be drawn, an open space formed by the storage plate 3 is used. The wiring 60 may be drawn out from the wiring.

According to the top plate mounting and storage device 1 configured as described above, the top plate 5 is attached in a state of being fitted into the top plate opening 50 and the upper portion of the storage plate material 3 is covered by the cover portion 4. When viewed from above, what is stored in the top board mounting / retaining tool 1 cannot be seen, and the appearance can be improved.
Further, since the storage plate member 3 has a substantially L-shaped cross section, an open space is formed. Therefore, even if it generates heat like the above-mentioned AC adapter 7 or the like, this open space becomes a heat dissipation space and can be stored in a good state. Of course, the heat radiation space 20a formed in the frame part 2 also functions as a heat radiation space.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 6A and 6B, a modified example of the same top board mounting / accommodating tool will be described.
Note that differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described, and the same components will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted or simplified.
6 (a) and 6 (b) is different from the above in the attachment / detachment structure of the lid 40, and FIG. 6 (a) shows a state in which the lid 40 is attached. Sectional drawing and (b) are sectional drawings which showed the state from which the cover body 40 is removed.

  The lid 40 is formed with three large, medium, and small protrusions 40a having different protrusion lengths along the longitudinal direction. In the mounted state of the lid body 40, the protrusion length of the protrusion portion 40a on the near side is the shortest, and the protrusion length of the protrusion portion 40a on the back side (wall surface side) is the longest. As described above, the protrusion 40a shown in this modification is not fitted to the cut groove 20e by pressing against the cut groove 20e, and positioning or mounting for mounting the lid 40 at an appropriate position is not available. It plays a role in preventing misdirection. Therefore, when the lid 40 is mounted, the protrusion 40a is fitted so as to follow the position of the cut groove 20e. When the cover body 40 is mounted in the opposite direction, the formation position of the cut groove 20e. It does not fit with.

The front end of the longest formed ridge 40a is locked to the receiving portion 20f formed on the frame body 2 and the end of the core member 40b provided on the front side surface of the ridge 40a. Processed to hold the part.
In the modification, the receiving portion 20f formed on the frame body portion 2 also plays a role of positioning to attach the lid body 40 to an appropriate position. That is, the lid 40 is positioned in the longitudinal direction by the cover fitting portion 20d in which the cut groove 20e is formed, and the lid 40 is positioned in the vertical direction by the receiving portion 20f.
In addition, a locking portion 40c that is locked to a concave groove portion 20g formed at the upper end portion of the holding frame 20c of the frame body portion 2 is formed on the near side in the mounted state of the lid body 40.
Accordingly, when the lid 40 is pulled toward the front side with the end on the back side, only the lid 40 can be removed smoothly without requiring a large force.

  As described above, the shape, size, and configuration of the frame body portion 2, the storage plate material 3, the cover portion 4 and the like that constitute the top plate mounting storage tool 1 are not limited to the illustrated examples. Further, the top board 5 to which the top board mounting / retaining tool 1 is attached is not limited to the counter desk fixedly supported by the top board fixing tool 8 fixed to the wall surface in the example of the figure, but also on the top board of the desk or the top board of the cabinet. Applicable. Further, the sandwiching structure between the frame body part 2 and the storage plate member 3 and the structure of the lid body 40 and the elastic piece 41 constituting the cover part 4 are not limited to the illustrated examples.
