To facilitate the rotational movement of the storage assembly 120 around the door hinge between the closed and open positions, the load bearings are wall mounted (and thus the support structure) between the closed and open positions. ) Is rotatable. To facilitate the rotation of the load bearing about the axis of rotation, the wall mount comprises a hinge connection having a hinge axis defining the axis of rotation. The hinge connection may be, for example, a telescopic hinge connection that can extend and contract in the radial direction with respect to the rotation axis of the load bearing, and the radial direction is defined by the hinge shaft and the hinge shaft of the hinge connection. It is orthogonal to the axial direction. The hinge shaft of the hinge connection, also referred to as the connection hinge shaft, is parallel to the hinge shaft of the door in applications where the storage device 124 is rotatably connected to the door. The connection hinge axis is vertical or substantially vertical, and the storage assembly 120 can be swiveled horizontally or substantially horizontally about the hinge axis in normal or typical entrance storage applications. The hinge connection facilitates the rotation of the load bearing around the hinge axis of the hinge connection with respect to the wall mount. In some embodiments, the hinge connection has a slightly tilted hinge shaft that facilitates automatic return of the storage assembly 120 to the storage position as it moves away from the storage position.

In exemplary applications, the storage assembly 100 is for indoor or outdoor installation and is installed inside or outside a building unit (collectively, a "building"), such as a house, building, or apartment. In order to improve the efficiency of space utilization, the storage facility 100 is attached to a mounting accommodation section located inside or outside the building and located near the entrance at the entrance of the building. The mounting containment section defines the entrance containment section .

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 1A, the exemplary support structure 20 is a part of the wall of a building structure such as an apartment, for example, an integral part of the building structure such as an apartment. An exemplary wall is a partition wall, for example, a partition wall that separates a private area 22 inside an apartment or an enclosed area 22 from a public or common area outside the private area. An entry opening is defined in the wall. The entrance opening defines the entrance to the apartment and is defined by a boundary wall, which may be an inner boundary wall or an outer boundary wall, jointly defining the entrance at the entrance of the apartment, and also. It includes a first side wall 24 and a second side wall 26 that jointly define the approach surface. Each of the first side wall and the second side wall is an entrance side wall, each entrance side wall is a vertical side wall, and the approach surface is orthogonal to the entrance side wall. In this example, the second side wall is parallel and opposed to the first side wall and jointly defines the width of the entrance with the first side wall.

Generally, the first and second side walls have the same thickness, the thickness defining the depth of the entrance space, while the separation distance between the first side wall and the second side wall is that of the entrance. Define the width. The first side wall and the second side wall are arranged symmetrically with respect to the central axis, which is the left-right symmetry axis of the entrance. The central axis is parallel to the first side wall and on the approach surface. The approach surface is approximately orthogonal to the approach direction in which a person moves in and out of the building through the entrance or entrance opening. The width is measured in a direction orthogonal to the central axis and the approach direction, and the depth or thickness of the first side wall is measured along the approach direction. The boundary wall optionally includes a top and bottom that jointly define the height of the entrance.

An exemplary boundary wall defines a front door frame that can optionally function as a door mounting frame. The first side wall 24 and the second side wall 26 are two lateral side walls (that is, left and right side walls) of an exemplary entrance frame, which jointly define a door mounting accommodating portion. One of the plurality of entry guards may be attached to the door mounting housing. In the examples of FIGS. 1A and 1B, a first entry guard and a second entry guard are attached to the door mounting housing. Exemplary first entry guard, for example, by a hinge connection at an inner end portion of the first side wall, for example, is the inner door 27A attached to the inner end of the mounting housing portion, the first entry side Define. An exemplary second entry guard is, for example, at the outer door 27B in the form of a metal grid gate attached to the outer end of the mounting enclosure , for example, by a hinge connection at the outer end of the first side wall 24. Yes, defining the second approach side. The first entry guard and the second entry guard jointly define an entrance storage space, also known as the entrance storage volume 28. The storage facility 100 in the storage position is arranged or accommodated inside the entrance storage space 28, which is the space between the doors in this example, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 2A.

In the example of FIG. 1, the wall mounting assembly 140 is mounted on the first side wall 24 and between the inner and outer ends of the entrance frame, as shown in FIG. 1B1. The exemplary wall mounting assembly 140 comprises a plurality of exemplary wall mounting portions. Each wall mount includes a wall mount 142 and a load bearing 144 connected to the wall mount 142. The wall mounting device 142 is for mounting on the support structure and for interconnecting the support structure and the load support device 144. The wall mounting device includes a wall mounting plate and a hinge connecting joint that interconnects the wall mounting plate and the load bearing device 144. The hinge connection joint has a joint shaft that is a hinge shaft parallel to the first side wall and parallel to the door hinge shaft. The load bearing device 144 is for supporting the weight of the storage assembly 120 and includes a load bearing member 145A extending laterally in a direction orthogonal to the hinge axis of the wall mounting device 142. The load support device 144 includes an expansion device 145B for facilitating expansion and contraction of the load support device 144 in the lateral direction which is a radial direction with respect to the hinge axis of the hinge connection joint of the wall mounting device 142. The load supported by the load bearing device 144 is transmitted to the wall mounting plate (and thus the supporting structure) via the hinge connecting joint. An exemplary expansion device 145B is a foldable joint shown in FIGS. 1B1 and 1B3. An exemplary foldable joint is a double hinge joint comprising a first bar portion and a second bar portion connected by a hinge joint having a hinge shaft parallel to the hinge shaft of the wall mount device 142. The first bar portion is connected to the hinge joint of the wall mounting device 142, and the second bar portion is connected to the load bearing member 145A by, for example, another hinge joint having a joint shaft parallel to the hinge shaft of the wall mounting device 142. Connected to. During the exemplary opening operation of the door 27A from the closed position to the open position, the load bearing device 144 moved from the substantially folded configuration of FIG. 3B1 to the more expanded configuration of FIG. 3B3, substantially of FIG. 3B3. Gradually expands to the unfolded configuration and finally to the fully unfolded configuration of FIG. 3B4. Conversely, when the door 27A closes, the load bearing device 144 gradually contracts from the fully unfolded configuration of FIG. 3B4 to the substantially folded configuration of FIG. 3B1. Due to the radial expandability and contractility of the load bearing 144, the load bearing 144 and the lining during the opening and closing operation where the radial distance between the backing assembly 122 and the hinge axis of the connecting joint is gradually changed. Continuous weight bearing coordination with the assembly 122 is facilitated. Therefore, the load support device 144, which can expand and contract in the radial direction, facilitates load support for the storage device 124, while the storage device continues to change the radial distance between the storage device 124 and the hinge connection. 124 rotates about the hinge axis.

The load bearing member 145A is elongated and includes, for example, a metal rod of steel, aluminum or an aluminum alloy, or a rigid plastic rod made of, for example, PC, ABS or other rigid plastic to provide sufficient weight bearing strength. The bar portion of the expansion device 145B is optionally made of the same material. In some embodiments, the load bearing device 144 may include a plurality of expansion devices connected in series and / or in parallel to provide sufficient load bearing strength. In an exemplary embodiment, the load bearing device 144 may have a single wall mount.

The laterally extending wall mounts of the exemplary wall mount assembly 140 of FIG. 1B1 are joined together by longitudinally extending rigid connectors to reinforce the longitudinal direction and support heavier loads. In this example, all second bar portions of the expansion device 145B are tightly connected by rigid longitudinal bars. In some embodiments, the ends of the load bearing members 145A in close proximity to the wall mounting device can be tightly connected to each other. When the wall mounts are tightly connected, all constituent connection bar portions rotate synchronously around the first side wall and expand and / or contract synchronously with respect to the first side wall. In addition, the operation of the connection bar part is synchronized. The load-bearing devices 144 collectively form a load-bearing portion, and the wall-mounting devices 142 collectively form a wall-mounting portion of the wall-mounting assembly 140.

Each of the wall mounts may be mounted individually or independently. When the wall mounts are mounted independently, each load bearing device 144A, 144B, 144C, 144D is independently movable, independently extendable and / or independently, as shown in FIG. 1B2. It is contractible. Alternatively, a plurality of selected wall mounting plates may be formed on a single bar to facilitate quicker mounting.

The backing assembly 122 can provide a skeletal structure for supporting the storage device 124 and includes a rigid backing device for supporting the weight of the storage device 124. An exemplary backing device comprises a rigid backing frame, as shown in FIGS. 1B and 1B1. An exemplary backing frame comprises a plurality of rigid hollow bars 123A, as shown in FIG. 1B4. Each hollow bar 123A extends laterally and each hollow bar is arranged at a different height in the axial direction. The laterally extending hollow bars are optionally connected by a plurality of rigid longitudinal bars 123B, C, which jointly form a single backing assembly 122. The rigid longitudinal bar extends at right angles to the rigid hollow bar to form a rigid backing structure. In some embodiments, the rigid hollow bars may or may not be tightly connected to each other. Each hollow bar has an inner wall that defines the inner hollow portion. The inner hollow portion has a shape and dimensions that match the cross section of the load support member 145A, whereby the elongated load support member 145A can smoothly slide in and out of the inner hollow portion of the rigid hollow bar 123A. can. Each load-bearing member 145A and the corresponding rigid hollow bar 123A form a nested pair (expandable pair) when assembled, and the load-bearing member 145A nests into the inner opening of the rigid hollow bar 123A. You can go in and out. A load bearing member 145A and a corresponding rigid hollow bar with an inner opening also form a rail channel assembly. In other embodiments, the load bearing member 145A may be formed as a rigid hollow bar, and the bar 123A is slidable within the inner opening of the load bearing member 145A.

A plurality of friction reducing means, such as ball bearings, are optionally provided on the upper surface of the load bearing member 145A, which is the load bearing surface, to facilitate smooth insertion and withdrawal. In some embodiments, the backing frame may include only a single rigid hollow bar.

To mount the storage assembly 120 to the wall mounting assembly 140, each rigid hollow bar is aligned with the corresponding load bearing member 145A of the wall mounting assembly 140, whether or not the storage device 124 is mounted. , The backing assembly 122 is aligned with the wall mounting assembly 140. When the storage assembly 120 and the wall mounting assembly 140 are aligned for mounting, the backing assembly 122 is pushed into the load bearing member 145A. When the storage assembly 120 is attached to the wall mounting assembly 140, the storage assembly 120 is slidable in the radial direction with respect to the wall mounting assembly 140 and slides away from the support structure from the wall mounting assembly 140. It is removable. If the storage device 124 is not attached to the backing assembly 122 when it is attached to the wall mounting assembly 140, the storage device 124 can be attached later.

The storage assembly 120 is interlocked with the inner door 27A (“connecting door”), and more specifically, is rotationally connected. When the storage device 124 is rotationally connected to the connecting door, the storage assembly can follow the rotational movement of the connecting door around the door hinge axis during opening and closing of the door. As shown in FIG. 1B4, the exemplary rotational interlock between the storage assembly 120 and the door 27A is facilitated by the exemplary interlocking device 30. The interlocking device 30 is attached to the outer surface of the door and follows the rotational movement of the door. Since the exemplary storage device 124 is rotationally connected to the door but not in the axial direction to the door, the storage device 124 and the door can freely move to each other in the axial direction, which is the direction of the door hinge axis. .. The interlocking device 30 mutually exchanges the first plate portion fixed to the outer surface of the door 27A, the second plate portion parallel to the outer surface of the door 27A and displaced from the outer surface, and the first and second plate portions. It is provided with an intermediate plate portion to be connected. The vertical slot 30A is formed in the second plate portion. In this example, the vertical slot opens at the lower free end of the second plate to define the entry opening to the slot, and the slot extends upward from the entry opening. The interlocking device 30 can cooperate with the driven device 125 of the storage device 124 so that no load is applied to the door or a minimum load is applied to facilitate the tracking of the operation. An exemplary driven device 125 is mounted in front of a laterally extending rigid hollow bar 123A, eg, a lateral bar 123A that forms the top of the backing assembly 122. The front is the side facing the entrance. An exemplary driven device 125 has a stem portion having a proximal end attached to the hollow bar 123A and an expanding head portion at the free end of the stem portion distal to the proximal end, as shown in FIG. 1B4. Be prepared. When the storage assembly 120 and the inner door 27A are interlocked, the second plate portion is in front of the front surface of the rigid hollow bar 123A and the stem portion projects through the slot. When the door makes a swivel or turn around the first side wall, the stem and expansion heads of the driven device 125 work with the second plate to combine the storage assembly 120 and the inner door 27A. Facilitates the connection and retention of connections between. The mechanical action link is released when the interlocking device 30 is removed from the door or moved out of range of the driven device 125, or when the expansion head portion is removed from the stem portion. In an exemplary embodiment, a threaded portion may be formed in the stem portion and an enlarged head portion may be screwed into the free end of the threaded stem portion to form a driven device 125 having a removable head portion. In some embodiments, slot 30A is a closed groove. To mitigate or minimize the possibility of weight transfer from the retractor to the door, the slot has a width greater than or slightly greater than the width of the stem, and the stem is free along the slot. It can slide and / or freely slide in and out of the slot in a direction orthogonal to the outer surface of the door. Slots also limit or limit relative radial movement between the storage device and the connecting door.

With reference to FIGS. 1A and 2A, the door mounting accommodating portion is formed in the weight support structure 20. The door mounting accommodating portion includes a first side wall 24 and a second side wall 26, which jointly define an entry surface and an entry opening of the building. The first door mounting frame is attached to one side surface of the support structure to form the first side wall 24 of the door mounting housing , and the second door mounting frame is attached to the opposite side surface of the support structure. A second side wall 26 of the door mounting accommodating portion is formed. The first door 27A is attached to the first entry side of the door mounting accommodating portion , and the second door 27B is attached to the second approach side of the door mounting accommodating portion. Each of the first door 27A and the second door 27B is movable between the closed state and the open state with respect to the door mounting accommodating portion. When the door is in the closed state, the door is parallel to the entry surface and forms a crossing barrier, blocking or partially blocking the entry opening. When the door is open, the door is at an angle to the entry surface, defining a passageway that allows entry into or exit from the building. The first door 27A is movable about the door hinge axis between the closed state and the open state. An entrance storage space 28 is defined between the first door 27A and the second door 27B. The storage assembly 120 is mounted inside the front door storage space 28. The storage assembly 120 is attached to the support structure by the hinge connection of the mounting assembly 140 mounted on the first side wall, and the weight of the storage assembly 120 is approximately supported, if not entirely, by the wall mounting assembly 140. NS. The hinge connection of the mounting assembly 140 has a hinge shaft that is radially displaced from the hinge shaft of the door 27A. The storage assembly 120 is rotationally connected to the first door 27A, and the rotation of the first door 27A around the door hinge causes the storage assembly 120 to rotate about the door hinge axis. Since the storage assembly 120 can rotate about the first hinge shaft, which is the door shaft of the door 27A, during the load support cooperation with the hinge connection portion having the hinge shaft displaced in the radial direction from the door shaft.

With reference to FIGS. 2A and 2A1, the storage assembly 120 is anchored in the storage position. When in the stowed position, the storage assembly 120 is fully contained within the front door storage space 28, and the storage assembly 120 forms at least a partial barrier at the front door. When in the stowed position, the stowage device 124, including the backing assembly 122, is orthogonal to the first side wall and parallel to or coplanar with the approach plane. When in the retracted position, the load bearing of the wall mount assembly 140 is orthogonal to the first side wall and parallel to or coplanar with the approach plane.

In the exemplary situation of FIG. 2A, both the inner door 27A and the outer door 27B are closed or stationary. When closed or stationary, each door is parallel to the entry plane, or orthogonal to the entrance side wall, to block entry and forms an entry barrier across the entrance hall. As shown in FIG. 2A2, when the outer door is not stationary or open, the storage assembly 120 is exposed to the outside, but remains in the storage position as shown in FIGS. 2B and 2C. In some embodiments, the outer door is attached to a slide rail and can slide to open and close.

On the other hand, when the inner door is opened, that is, when it is rotated by an angle θ from the entrance storage volume or the approach surface as shown in FIG. 1A, the storage device 124 follows the rotational movement of the door 27A with respect to the approach surface. The angle θ is formed, and entry is possible. Generally, this angle is greater than or equal to 30 degrees and is usually between 30 and 90 degrees. When the door 27A is open, the driven device 125 follows the opening operation of the door and swivels with respect to the hinge axis of the wall mounting device 142, whereby the driven device 125 swivels to cause the storage device 124 to swivel. Turn. The door 27A and the storage device 124 are mechanically connected so that the door does not have to support the weight of the storage device 124 or a considerable weight thereof, but are not weight-connected, so that the connecting door can be rotated. It is only necessary to apply sufficient rotational driving force to the connecting door and around the door hinge shaft so that the loaded door can easily rotate.

When the storage facility 10 is removed from the entrance storage volume 28, the entrance and the entrance storage volume 28 are released, as shown in FIG. 1C.

An example of a series of door opening / closing operations is shown in FIGS. 4A1 to 4A4 and 4B1 to 4B4.

First, when the inner door 27A, the outer door 27B, and the storage assembly 100 are in the stationary state, the storage system 10 is in the closed state of FIG. 2A. In this closed state, the inner door 27A, the outer door 27B and the storage assembly 100 are all entry barriers at the entrance.

Upon exiting the building, one opens the inner door 27A, the connecting door. When the connecting door is open, the angle between the connecting door and the entry surface gradually increases from zero (when the connecting door is parallel to the entry surface) to an opening angle sufficient for entry, eg θ. .. As shown in FIGS. 4A1 and 4B1, the angle between the storage device and the approach surface gradually increases from zero to θ due to the interlocking between the storage device and the connecting door. In this partially open state, the outer door is exposed inside the building, but remains as an exit barrier to prevent exit.

The user then moves forward from the interior 22 of the building into the entrance area and opens the outer door, as shown in FIGS. 4A2 and 4B2. In this double door state, both the inner door and the outer door are opened, and a through passage connecting the inner space and the outer space is formed.

When the user is outside the front door, the user closes the inner and outer doors and the storage system regains its closed state, as shown in FIGS. 4A3, 4A4, 4B3, 4B4.

An example of a series of door opening / closing operations is shown in FIGS. 5A1 to 5A4 and 5B1 to 5B4.

Initially, the storage system 10 is in the closed state of FIG. 2A. In this closed state, the entrance is closed in both the entrance and exit directions, and the entrance storage space is a closed space or a closed space surrounded between the inner door and the outer door.

To enter the building, one opens the outer door 27B. As shown in FIGS. 5A1 and 5B1, when the outer door is at an angle sufficient for entry, the inner door 27A and storage device are exposed and accessible, but remain as an entry barrier that impedes entry. When the storage system 10 is in this partially open state, the inner door 27A and the storage assembly 100 remain as an entry barrier at the entrance.

The user then opens the inner door 27A, the connecting door, with the outer door open. When the connecting door is open, the angle between the connecting door and the entry surface gradually increases from zero degrees (when the connecting door is parallel to the entry surface) to an opening angle sufficient for entry, for example θ. Become. As shown in FIGS. 5A2 and 5B2, the angle between the storage device and the approach surface gradually increases from zero to θ due to the interlocking between the storage device and the connecting door. In this further partially open state, all entry barriers at the entrance are released.

As shown in FIGS. 5A3 and 5B3, after the connecting door 27A is opened, the user enters the interior of the building and closes the outer door 27B.

Subsequently, as shown in FIGS. 5A4 and 5B4, the user closes the outer door 27B and the system 10 restores the closed state of FIG. 2A.

The user can access the storage device for storing and / or removing the article, for example, when in the open state of FIGS. 4B1, 4B2, 4B3 and 5B1, 5B2, 5B3.

Each of the first and second doors in the present invention is an entry barrier (also known as an entry guard), more specifically a recloseable entry barrier for blocking or obstructing a passage through the entrance. Intended to function as.

In some embodiments, the storage system may have only a single entry barrier, eg, only an outer door or an inner door, or the storage facility 100 may be rotationally coupled to a single entry barrier. , Or it does not have to be linked to the entry barrier. If the storage system has a single entry barrier, the entrance storage space is always accessible from inside or outside the building. If the entrance storage facility is rotationally connected to the connecting door, a passage is formed at the entrance if a single entry barrier or all entry barriers are open.

In another embodiment, the storage system does not have to have an additional door as an entry barrier, and the storage system in the stowed position acts as an entry barrier or partial entry barrier across or at the entrance. May be good. If the entrance storage facility does not have an additional entry barrier to the storage assembly, the entrance will be opened and closed depending on whether the storage system is open or closed.

In some embodiments, interlocking mechanisms that can facilitate the rotational connection between the connecting entry barrier (also known as the connecting door) and the storage assembly allow independent operation of the storage assembly when necessary or desired. It is a releaseable connecting mechanism that facilitates. When the rotational interlock between the entry barrier and the storage assembly is disengaged, the storage assembly is no longer mechanically coupled to or no longer mechanically coupled to the hinge of the connecting entry barrier. When in this disengaged or unconnected state, the storage assembly can rotate about its own hinge, which is the hinge axis of the hinge connection of the wall-mounted assembly during the opening and closing operation, but the hinge of the connecting entry barrier. It does not rotate around the axis.

In some embodiments, including the embodiment of FIG. 1, the entry barrier includes a grid entry guard, such as a metal grid door, and a non-grid sealed door, such as a wooden door.
