Description

本発明は、例えば、物流倉庫などで使用される高さのある収納棚の天井部上に配設固定されて、この天井部上方の空きスペースを収納用途に活用するための昇降収納装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an elevating storage device that is disposed and fixed on the ceiling of a tall storage shelf used in, for example, a distribution warehouse, and utilizes the empty space above the ceiling for storage purposes. Is.

物流倉庫などで使用される在庫収納棚は、天井部上にも収納物を収納可能な空きスペースがあるが、高さ（２.１～２.４ｍほど）があって作業者の手が届きづらいために、この天井部上の空きスペースを有効に活用できていない。 Inventory storage shelves used in distribution warehouses have an empty space on the ceiling that can store stored items, but they are tall (about 2.1 to 2.4 m) and can be reached by workers. Due to the difficulty, the empty space on the ceiling cannot be used effectively.

一方、出願人は、キッチンの吊戸棚内に収納状態で設置され、食器などの収納物を収納したり取り出したい時に、棚内より収納本体を手前側下方に引き出して使用することができる棚配設用収納装置を実施している（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 On the other hand, the applicant is installed in the hanging cupboard of the kitchen in a stored state, and when he / she wants to store or take out stored items such as tableware, the storage body can be pulled out from the shelf to the lower side and used. An installation storage device is implemented (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

特許第３６３７２５３号公報Japanese Patent No. 3637253

出願人は、上記特許文献１のような棚配設用収納装置を、物流倉庫などで使用される在庫収納棚の天井部上に設置すれば、必要な時に作業者が収納本体を手前側下方に引き出して収納物を収納したり取出したりできて、収納棚の天井部の上方の空きスペースを有効活用できるようになるのではないかと着眼した。 If the applicant installs the storage device for shelving arrangement as in Patent Document 1 on the ceiling of the inventory storage shelf used in a distribution warehouse or the like, the worker can move the storage body downward to the front side when necessary. I focused on the possibility that the empty space above the ceiling of the storage shelves could be effectively utilized by pulling it out to store and take out the stored items.

そして、この着眼点に基づいてさらに実用性を追求すべく試行錯誤した末に、収納本体が収納棚の天井部上の収納位置にある時には収納本体内に収納した収納物が落下しにくい後傾状態となり、収納本体を手前引出し下降位置に引出した時には収納物を出し入れし易い略水平若しくは水平に近い後傾状態となる昇降収納装置を完成させるに至った。 Then, after trial and error to pursue further practicality based on this point of view, when the storage body is in the storage position on the ceiling of the storage shelf, the stored items stored in the storage body are less likely to fall backward. In this state, when the storage body is pulled out to the front drawer lowering position, it is easy to put in and take out the stored items.
