Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an underground storage device for storing items such as rice and canned food by utilizing the underground space below the floor of a building.

In general, many of these types of storage devices have entrances and exits on the floor of the building, and are deep enough for an adult to stand inside. Therefore, if the entrance/exit is left open, you are in a dangerous situation. In other words, there is a risk that a person may accidentally fall into the storage device through the doorway and suffer injury, or an object may be dropped into the storage device and this object may hit a person inside the storage device, causing injury. There is.

In order to avoid the above-mentioned dangerous situation, it is better to close the doorway with a lid instead of leaving it open, but the lid should be closed in this way only when not putting things in or taking them out. When working inside the equipment, the user forgets to close the doorway with the lid, and in most cases the doorway remains open.

The present invention has focused on the above-mentioned problem, and aims to provide a safe underground storage device in which the lid will not be forgotten to close.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is provided with an underground storage capsule that is equipped with a lighting lamp and has an entrance on the floor of the building, a floor cover that opens and closes the entrance, and a transparent section at the bottom of the floor cover. The underground storage device is provided with an inner lid that can be opened and closed freely, and an interlocking switch part that is configured to be linked with the opening and closing operation of the inner lid and that lights or enables the lamp to be lit when the inner lid is opened. It is structured as follows.

With this configuration, when a person enters the underground storage capsule and the inner lid is closed to ensure a safe condition, the lamp will be turned on or ready to be turned on, ensuring its safety, and This has the advantage that it is possible to determine whether to close the lid for safety based on whether the lamp is lit or not.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In Figure 1, 1 is the building floor, 2 is an underground storage capsule with the lower part buried in the ground 3 below the floor 1, and the upper part fixed to the back side of the floor 1. A lamp 4, a multi-tiered shelf 5, a ladder 6, etc. are provided. 7 is an entrance/exit to the capsule 2 which is opened on the floor 1; 8 is a floor cover for opening/closing the entrance/exit 7; it is detachably set on the upper surface of the flange 2a of the capsule 2; Be on the same page. A holder 9 holds the lamp 4 and is fixed to the inner wall of the capsule 2. 10 is a first switch of the lamp 4 provided on the upper surface of the holder 9; 11 is a second switch of the lamp 4 provided on the front end surface of the article shelf 5; and 12 is a switch set in the entrance/exit 7 below the floor cover 8. It is a movable inner lid, which has a large number of small window holes 12a, and one end is pivotally attached to the inner wall of the capsule 2 via a hinge 13, and the other end rests on the first switch 10 as a free end. In this way, the inner lid 12 and the first switch 10 are configured to be linked.

the lamp 4, the first switch 10 and the second switch
The switch 11 is connected to the power supply 14 as shown in FIG.
against the lamp 4, the first switch 10 and the second
The switches 11 are connected in series in this order. Therefore, the lamp 4 closes the first switch 10.
The light does not turn on when the light is turned on, but the light is turned on when the second switch 11 is also closed. The second switch 11 is opened and closed by a person who enters the capsule 2, and the first switch 10 is opened and closed by the free end of the inner lid 12. . That is, when the inner lid 12 is set in the entrance/exit 7 and its free end rests on the first switch 10, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 1, the first switch 10 is "closed" and the broken line When the inner lid 12 is removed from the entrance/exit 7, the first switch 10 becomes "open" as shown in FIG.

In the above configuration, when the inner lid 12 is set in the entrance/exit 7, that is, when the entrance/exit 7 is closed by the inner lid 12, the free end of the inner lid 12 rests on the first switch 10. 1st switch 1
0 indicates "closed". Therefore, when a person is inside the capsule 2 and turns the second switch 11 "closed" by hand, the lamp 4 lights up and illuminates the inside of the capsule 2.

By the way, if the inner lid 12 is removed from the entrance/exit 7 as shown by the broken line in FIG. In this case, the first switch 10 is "open", so even if you enter the capsule 2 and turn the second switch 11 "open", the lamp 4 will not light up and it will be dark to work inside the capsule 2. This is difficult to do, and the person inside the capsule 2 will realize that the inner lid 12 has not been set at the entrance 7.

Unless the entrance/exit 7 is closed by the inner lid 12 in this way, it will be difficult to work inside the capsule 2. In other words, the inner lid 12 will close the entrance/exit 7.
The lamp 4 inside the capsule 2 will not light up until after the capsule 2 is closed and a safe condition is ensured with no danger of people or objects falling into the capsule 2. It is made difficult. In addition, since the inner lid 12 is transparent, even when the inner lid 12 is closed, it is possible to brightly illuminate the upper part of the capsule 2 using lighting equipment installed in the living room. Since the lamp 4 inside the capsule 2 is lit, it becomes easier to work inside the capsule 2, and communication can be carried out while ensuring the safety of people on the floor.

In the above embodiment, when the entrance/exit 7 is closed by the inner lid 12, the lamp 4 can be turned on by the second switch 11, but as shown in FIG. 4 and the first switch 10, and the second switch 11 may be set on a pillar (not shown) on the floor 1, that is, outside the capsule 2; in this example, 2nd switch 1 before entering capsule 2
1 is set to "closed", after entering the capsule 2, the inner lid 12 closes the entrance 7, and at the same time,
The lamp 4 is automatically turned on.

As described above, the underground storage device of the present invention has an inner lid that opens and closes the entrance, making it difficult to work inside the capsule unless the entrance is closed and a safe condition is ensured. Therefore, it is easy to notice if you forget to close the entrance using the inner lid, making it extremely safe.Also, since the inner lid is transparent, even when the inner lid is closed, the The lighting equipment makes it possible to brightly illuminate the upper part of the capsule, and also lights up the lamp inside the capsule, making it easier to work inside the capsule and ensuring the safety of people on the floor. Communication is measured in the state.
