Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to an under-floor storage device for storing vegetables, fruits, grains, drinks, fuel, etc., using the under-floor space of a house, and in particular, the invention relates to an under-floor storage device that can be installed on an existing floor. This invention relates to an underfloor storage device.

Conventionally, this type of underfloor storage device has an opening provided in the floor, a lid for opening and closing this opening, and an underfloor space that communicates with the opening, and an upper opening that communicates with the opening. A storage case is well known. However, in general, storage cases are often formed larger than the floor opening in order to increase the storage capacity, so when installing a new underfloor storage device on an existing floor, it is difficult to install it. It was extremely troublesome, and there was a problem in that the floor part other than the mounting part had to be renovated as well.

In order to solve this problem, an under-floor storage device has been proposed in which a storage section sealed by a side wall is suspended from an opening in the floor (in 1983).
(Refer to Publication No. 41117), the storage section is formed in a sealed manner by the side wall, and its volume is predetermined, so there is a limit to the amount of stored items and its length, etc., and there is also a problem with the space under the floor. This had the disadvantage that it could not respond to changes in height.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and provides an underfloor storage device that can be installed on floors with various underfloor heights and can also store long objects. The purpose is to

Examples of this invention will be described below based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a partially sectional perspective view showing the first embodiment of this invention, in which 1 is a rectangular opening provided in the floor A, and 2 is a rectangular opening provided in the floor A; The outer frame has an outward flange 2a protruding from its upper end that engages with the upper surface A' of the floor, and a horizontal part 2b facing into the opening at its lower end, and a horizontal part 2b which faces into the opening.
An inward flange 2d is provided on the wooden frame B formed at the lower part of the opening 1. Reference numeral 3 denotes a lid, which has an inner frame 3b that fits into the outer frame 2 around the lid base 3a, so that the opening 1 can be opened and closed. Note that when the lid body 3 is inserted into the opening 1 and the opening 1 is closed, the upper part of the floor and the underfloor space C

is attached to either the inner frame 3b or the outer frame 2 (outer frame 2 in the drawing). Reference numeral 6 denotes a suspension rod, the upper end of which is fixed to the corner of the wooden frame B located at the lower part of the opening 1 with a fixing device 7 such as a screw or nail, so that it is connected to the underfloor space C. It is hanging down towards. This suspension rod 6 is fixed so that the height of its lower end can be changed, as will be described later. In addition, the lower ends of two of the hanging rods 6, 6 that are located opposite to each other are connected by a support rod 8, and a support plate 9 having a rectangular shape in plan view can be placed thereon. It's becoming like that.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the suspension rod 6 and the support rod 8 are formed simultaneously by bending one member into a substantially U-shape, but the support rod 8 is formed from a separate member. Alternatively, as shown in Fig. 2, the suspension rod 6' may be made of angle material, and its lower end may be framed by support rods 8' also made of angle material, and this framework may be used. The receiving plate 9 is placed inside to facilitate its installation, and the receiving plate 9 is
It is also possible to provide reinforcement.

Figures 3 to 5 show configurations for making it possible to adjust the hanging dimension of the suspension rod 6.
As shown in FIG. 3, the upper end has a plurality of mounting holes 6b, which are appropriately spaced along the longitudinal direction.
6b... are provided, and when installing, connect any part of these mounting holes 6b to the wooden frame B or the fourth
The vertical adjustment of the receiving plate 9 is performed by screwing it to an auxiliary bracket 12 attached to a wooden frame B as shown in the figure.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, a hanging rod 6'' is formed of a round bar or a pipe, and a threaded portion 6a formed at its upper end is connected to a mounting frame 10 fitted into the inner surface of the wooden frame B. Nut 11 on inward flange 10'
It is also possible to change the installation height of the suspension rod 6'' by fixing it with

By making the hanging dimensions of the suspension rods 6, 6'' adjustable in this manner, it becomes possible to flexibly accommodate floors having various underfloor height dimensions.

In the above embodiments, the upper end of the suspension rod 6 is fixed to the wooden frame B or the auxiliary bracket 12 attached to the wooden frame B with screws, nails, etc., but the manner of attachment is different. is not limited, and for example, as shown in FIG.
are provided on the suspension rod 6, and the upright edge 2c and the hook portion 6d
Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2b.

As explained above, the underfloor storage device of this invention has a plurality of suspension rods located directly below the opening of the underfloor space C that communicates with the opening 1 provided in the floor A, and one end of which is connected to the opening 1. 6, 6' or 6'' are suspended, and the lower ends of at least two of these suspension rods 6, 6' or 6'' are connected by a support rod 8, so that articles can be put in and taken out on this support rod 8. Since the receiving plate 9 to be placed is placed and supported, the number of structural members can be extremely reduced compared to conventional underfloor storage devices of this type, and the periphery of the receiving plate 9 is open-shaped. Therefore, the objects stored in the receiving plate 9 can be stored so as to protrude from the periphery of the receiving plate 9, and are not limited to the size of the storage case as in the conventional case, and can store relatively long objects. In addition, since items stored around the receiving plate 9 can be stored in a protruding manner by the receiving plate 9, more items can be stored in a limited space. Furthermore, in addition to having excellent effects such as being able to perform installation work easily, the articles inserted through the opening 1 and placed on the receiving plate 9 are exposed to the underfloor space C in the stored state. There is no need to provide separate ventilation means. Moreover, since the receiving plate 9 is placed on and supported by the support rod 8, it is easy to mount and replace.

Furthermore, since the hanging rod is attached so that the hanging dimension can be adjusted, a receiving plate 9 supported at the lower end of the hanging rod is attached.
The installation height of the system can be changed, and it can flexibly accommodate floors with various underfloor height dimensions, widening the range of use.
