Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a table in which a table board is divided into a plurality of parts, and each part of the table board can be adjusted to an appropriate height.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional tables, such as dining tables and cooking counters, have support legs fixed to the table board, and the height of the table is determined by the height of the legs. In addition, some tables are equipped with a height adjustment mechanism on the legs so that the height of the table can be raised or lowered depending on how the table is used.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In conventional tables, the entire table board is always at a constant height, whether the table legs are fixed or the height of the table legs is adjustable. Therefore, in the case of a dining table, for example, when people of different heights, such as adults and children, use the same table, the height of the chairs must be adapted.

Furthermore, cooking tables require tables of different heights depending on the materials and utensils used for cooking, the content of cooking, etc. In this case, tables with different heights have to be prepared.

In this way, since high and low chairs and high and low tables are prepared, the usable area of the room becomes small, and there are inconveniences such as it takes time and effort to set up the chairs and tables.

In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to make the height of the table plate partially adjustable, thereby improving the usability of the table.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the object, the table of the present invention is characterized in that the table board is divided into a plurality of parts, and the height of each divided table board can be adjusted individually. .

Here, the height of each divided table plate can be adjusted by providing a lifting mechanism at the bottom of each table plate, and using this lifting mechanism.

[Effect]

In the table of the present invention, the table plate is not a single plate but a combination of a plurality of small table plates, and the height of each small table plate is adjustable by a lifting mechanism.

The table board used in the present invention is a wooden board and a synthetic resin board.

The table plate conventionally used can be made of any material such as a metal plate, and the size and shape of the table plate are free.

The number of divisions of the small table board and the shape of the divisions can be freely selected depending on the intended use of the table. Preferred methods of division include dividing a square table board into four, or dividing a rectangular table board into five in the longitudinal direction, but the table can be divided into various shapes and numbers depending on the purpose and conditions of use of the table. .

In the table of the present invention, each small table plate divided as described above is provided with an elevating mechanism, and the height of each small table plate can be arbitrarily adjusted by this elevating mechanism.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the features of the present invention will be specifically explained using examples with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a table according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a lifting mechanism for a table plate of the same table.

The table of this embodiment is a table in which a square table board is divided into four parts. As shown in FIG. 1, a square table board 1 is divided into four small table boards 2 to 5. As shown in FIG. 2, each of the divided small table plates 2 to 5 is provided with a lifting mechanism for adjusting the height of the small table plate. The elevating mechanism of this embodiment consists of a fixed cylinder and a movable rod, which also serves as the legs of the small table board. That is, as in the illustrated example, a cylinder 8.9 is fixed to the floor surface, and a small table plate 2.3 is fixed to the upper end of a rod 6.7 inserted through the cylinder 8.9. When raising and lowering the small table plate 2゜3,
Loosen the locking screw (not shown) and move the rod 6.7 up and down,
By stopping at an appropriate height position and tightening the locking screw, the small table plate 2.3 can be adjusted to an arbitrary height. Note that if the legs that also serve as the lifting and lowering mechanism are stored in the cabinet 10 and cover plates 11 are provided on the two outer sides of each small table board 2 to 5, the cylinders and rods will not be visible from the outside. The appearance of the entire table becomes neat as shown in FIG. Here, cabinet 10
If an opening/closing door 12 (see FIG. 1) is provided on the cover plate 11 or cover plate 11, there will be no problem when operating and maintaining the elevating mechanism. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, if a shelf 13 is provided on the lower side of the small table board 2.3, it can be used as a storage section for small items.

In the table of this embodiment, each divided small table board 2
~5 can be adjusted in height independently, so when using this table as a dining table, for example, small table board 3 can be used as a place for children to sit, and small table board 5 can be used as a place for infants to sit. Adjust the small table board to a height that is comfortable for eating. After a meal, each small table board 2 to 5 can be returned to the same height and used as a normal table. Further, the table board 1 can be a wide-area table board, and each of the divided small table boards 2 to 5 can be used at a height depending on the purpose. In this case, if the small table plates 2 to 5 are arranged at the same height, it can be suitably used when a wide table surface is required, such as for dressmaking or parties.

In this embodiment, the elevating mechanism is a simple manual type, but instead of the manual type, an electric suction IJ or one-way type can be used. In this case, an electric motor, a screw shaft, etc. are built into the cabinet 10, a switch is provided at an appropriate position on the table plate, and the small table plate can be raised and lowered by operating this switch.
