Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a vertical iron storage case for storing an electric iron in an upright position.

[Technical background of the invention]

A conventional vertical iron storage case is shown in FIG. In this case, a case lid c is pivotally attached via a hinge b to one side edge of the opening of a case body a that stores an electric iron, and a partition plate d is provided inside the lower part of the case lid c, and the iron is stored on the back side. This is a configuration in which a void e is formed. When storing the electric iron, store the iron in a standing position in the case body a, and store the cord, water cup, patch, etc. in the storage space e, and then store the iron in the case body a, and then store the iron in the case body a. It is now possible to complete the work by closing the lid.

[Problems with background technology]

Therefore, in order to form the storage space e in the case lid c, the thickness of the case lid c whose lower surface is not grounded increases, making the vertically long iron storage case unstable and prone to tipping over. Moreover, since molds for the case lid c and the partition plate d are required, mold costs are high, and the assembly process of attaching the partition plate d to the case lid c is also required, which increases the cost. There was a problem.

Furthermore, since the cord of the electric iron is stored inside the case lid c, the cord is provided across the case body a and the case lid b, and when the case lid c is closed, the cord slacks and hangs between the case body a and the case. There was a problem that there was a risk of being pinched between the case cover c and the case cover c and being damaged, and that the closing operation of the case cover c was likely to be hindered. Moreover, the task of storing the cord in the storage space was relatively troublesome.

[Purpose of invention]

This invention can prevent damage to the cord, and
It's easy to store the cord, it's cheap, and
This was proposed for the purpose of obtaining a highly stable vertical iron storage case that can prevent it from falling over.

[Summary of the idea]

That is, the present invention includes a heat shield that surrounds a free-standing electric iron housed in the case body, which is placed close to one of the left and right side walls of the case body. A storage space for storing a cord, a water cup, etc. is formed between the inner surface of the other side wall and the outer side surface of the heat shield opposing thereto, and the inner surface of the other side wall and the outer side surface are The vertical iron storage case is characterized in that it is provided so as to sandwich only the storage space, and a cord hook is provided on the inner surface of the other side wall facing the storage space.

[Example of idea]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a synthetic resin case body with an opening on one side, and a heat shield 2 made of a heat-resistant synthetic resin and an ironing stand 3 made of a metal plate are housed inside the case body. The heat shield 2 has a pair of side parts 4a and 4b.
It is formed from a substantially U-shaped side plate that is continuous at its upper end, and a rear plate 5 that closes off the rear surface of this side plate. A free-standing electric iron (not shown) is housed in the heat shield 2 so as to be freely put in and taken out through the opening, and the housed electric iron is placed on an iron stand 3 on its own.
In addition, the heat shield 2 is connected to the case body 1.
It is stored near either the left or right side wall 1a or 1b.

In this embodiment, the direction in which the heat shield 2 is moved can be arbitrarily selected. That is,
A slide hole 6 extending in the horizontal direction is bored in the rear plate 5 of the heat shield 2, and a guide 7 protruding from the rear wall of the case body 1 passes through this slide hole 6. Moreover, opposing engaging parts 8, 8 and 9, 9 are integrally molded on the outer surfaces of the side parts 4a, 4b of the heat shield and the inner surfaces of the side walls 1a, 1b of the case body 1, respectively. The positioning member 1 is attached to the engaging portions 8, 8 or 9, 9.
0 can be selectively inserted and removed. Therefore, in order to arrange the heat shield 2 from the state shown in FIG. 4 to the state shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, after pulling out the positioning member 10 from between the engaging parts 8,
The heat shield 2 is brought closer to the side wall 1b of the case body 1, and then the positioning member 10 is moved closer to the side wall 1b of the case body 1.
This is done by inserting and engaging the engaging portions 9, 9 into engagement. Similarly, in order to arrange the heat shield 2 from the state shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 to the state shown in FIG. The heat shield 2 is moved so that the side portion 4a approaches the side wall 1a of the case body 1, and then the positioning member 10 is inserted between the engaging portions 8 and engaged. The movement of the heat shield 2 during these position selections is allowed by the slide holes 6, and after selection, the positioning member 10
This prevents careless movement. In addition, such a measure is useful in cases where the electric iron has a structure in which the direction in which the cord is led out can be changed to suit the user's dominant hand, and consideration is given to the presence of a storage space (described later) in the direction in which the cord is led out. It is. Further, in the above structure, the engaging parts 8 and 9 are both grooved, but these may be used as protrusions, and grooves may be provided on both side edges of the positioning member 10 to allow the positioning member 10 to be inserted and removed. . Note that if such measures are required, the structure is not limited to the above structure; for example, a removable spacer that is separate from the case body 1 and the heat shield 2 may be inserted between the side walls and the side parts to provide a heat shield. The body 2 may be screwed to the case body 1, or screw receivers may be provided on the rear wall of the case body 1 at positions shifted in the left and right direction, and a heat shield may be attached to the rear wall of the case body 1 by selecting one of these. This can be done in various ways, such as by screwing 2 together.

On the other hand, inside the case body 1, a vertically elongated storage space is formed between the inner surface of either the left or right side wall 1a or 1b and the outer surface of one of the side walls 4a or 4b of the heat shield 2. In addition, the inner surface of the side wall 1a or 1b and the outer surface of the side portion 4a or 4b are provided so as to sandwich only the storage space. In this embodiment, since the positioning member 10 is provided, there are two storage spaces 11, upper and lower.
This shows a case where the screen is partitioned into sections a and 11b. In addition, when the heat shield 2 is moved to the side wall 1b as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the storage space 11
a, 11b are formed between the side wall 1a and the side portion 4a, and when the heat shield 2 is moved to the side wall 1a as shown in FIG.
11b is formed between the side wall 1a and the side portion 4b. The storage space 11a stores small items such as a water cup and a patch (not shown), and the storage space 11b stores an electric iron cord A. When the storage spaces 11a and 11b are separated in this manner, cords and small items are stored in an orderly manner, so it is easy to check the storage status of the cords and small items, and it is possible to prevent forgetting to store them. Furthermore, a cord hook 12 is provided on the inner surface of the side wall of the case body 1 facing the storage space 11b. In the case of this embodiment, the cord hanger 12 can be selectively attached to the inner surfaces of the side walls 1a and 1b of the case body 1 using hand screws 13, so as not to obstruct the movement of the heat shield 2. There is. Reference numeral 14 is a screw insertion hole. Furthermore, a case lid 15 made of synthetic resin is pivotally attached to the opening side edge of the case body 1 via hinges 16, 16. In addition, 17 is a clamp receiver provided on the case body 1, and 18 is a clamp receiver 1 provided on the case lid 15.
The case lid 14 is maintained in the closed state by engaging the clamps 7 and 7, which can be freely hooked and detached. Further, 19 is a handle for transportation.

Although the above-described embodiment is configured as described above, the present invention may be implemented without the structure for moving the heat shield. In addition, when implementing the present invention, the case body, case lid, and heat shield may be provided as long as it does not contradict the gist of the invention, such as providing a storage space in the case lid in addition to the storage space of the present invention. The specific shape, structure, position, etc. of the storage space, cord hanging device, etc. are not limited to the above embodiment.
Of course, it can be configured and implemented in various ways.

[Effect of idea]

The gist of the present invention described above is the structure described in the scope of the above-mentioned utility model registration claims.

Therefore, since the storage space is provided in the case body, when the cord of the free-standing electric iron is stored in the storage space, the cord is not provided between the case body and the case lid. Therefore, the case lid can be closed after the cord is easily stored, and the cord will not be caught between the mating surfaces of the case body and the case lid.
The case lid can be easily closed.
Furthermore, since the cord is not caught between the mating surfaces of the case body and the case lid, damage to the cord can be prevented. Moreover, since a cord hanger is provided in the storage space, the looped cord can be detachably hung from the cord hanger, making it easy to put in and take out the cord. Since it is provided on the side wall of the case body instead of on the heat shield, contact between the heat shield and the cord is reduced, allowing the cord to be stored thermally safely.

In addition, the storage space inside the case body for storing cords, etc. can be created by placing the heat shield against either the left or right side wall of the case body, so that the inner surface of the other side wall of the case body It is formed between the outer side surface of the heat shield, which is essential to protect the case main body from the temperature of the iron stored in the main body, and the outer surface of the side wall and the inner surface of the side wall are sandwiched only by the storage space. Since the storage space is provided in such a way that no special member is required, the storage space can be formed and the structure is simple. Therefore, when a storage space is provided only in the case body, the mold cost and assembly cost can be reduced compared to the conventional case, and the product can be obtained at a low price.

Moreover, by forming the storage space on the side of the heat shield inside the case body, the width of the case body becomes larger by the width of this storage space, which improves the stability of the storage case of the present invention. This has the effect of effectively preventing falls.
