Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] Industrial applications The present invention relates to a chest of drawers.

Conventional technology and its problems Chests are generally placed along the walls of rooms, but they have a wide shielding area and can be moved as needed, so it would be convenient if they could be used as a partition between living spaces. It is. Particularly in modern life, where effective use of living space is strongly desired, the use of chests of drawers, which can serve both as a partition and a storage function, is effective.

However, when it is desired to store clothes, etc. in each of the partitioned rooms, the following problem arises because conventional chests of drawers can only be accessed from one side. In other words, if a chest of drawers is installed in each room for storage purposes, the room becomes smaller. When using two or more chests of drawers in a row as a partition, it may be possible to have each chest of drawers facing a different room, but the drawers usually have different structures depending on their function, such as wardrobes or chests of drawers. Therefore, it is not possible to store items appropriately from each room.

This invention solves these conventional problems and
It can be used as a partition between living spaces.
Moreover, the purpose is to provide a chest of drawers that can be accessed for storage in each room without having to install a separate chest of drawers in each partitioned room, and that is also advantageous for storing items appropriately depending on the type of stored items. shall be.

Means for Solving the Problems The object of the present invention is to provide a chest of drawers equipped with at least one kind of accommodating part among a clothes hanging part, a shelf, and a drawer, the accommodating part being common from both the front and rear sides of the chest of drawers. In order to enable use, a door covering the clothes hanging part or shelf or a handle for the drawer are provided on both the front and rear sides, and a reinforcing frame made of a metal profile along the inner periphery is provided on the inner periphery of the outer wall of the chest of drawers. This is achieved by means of a chest of drawers, which is characterized by being fixed.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 1 shows an example of a wardrobe. This wardrobe is equipped with a clothes hanging part 1, and double doors 2 on both the front and back so that the clothes hanging part 1 can be used commonly from both the front and rear sides of the chest (the figure shows one of the double doors). only one side is shown). This wardrobe further includes a reinforcing frame 3 along the inner peripheral surface of the chest of drawers, that is, the top plate, the bottom plate, and the inner surfaces of the left and right side plates. The reinforcing frame 3 is made of square steel, so that it can maintain the rectangular shape along the inner peripheral surface of the chest with sufficient strength.
A metal shape material such as channel steel is integrally formed with a suitable fixing part such as welding. Dimensions of reinforcing frame 3,
The shape, number, etc. can be determined as appropriate depending on the size, purpose, and required strength of the chest of drawers. In order to increase the strength, the reinforcing frame 3 is preferably attached to each surface of the inner circumference of the chest of drawers. The pair of vertical members in the reinforcing frame 3 are provided with a plurality of attachment portions 30 for selectively attaching the clothes hanging rods 4 to each vertical member.

With this configuration, this wardrobe has two doors.
Since it plays the role of a partition wall, it can be used as a partition in a living space, and since doors 2 are provided on both the front and rear sides, each partitioned room can be accessed for storage purposes. FIG. 2 is a plan view of this wardrobe, and the opening and closing movements of the door 2 are indicated by arrows. Furthermore, since the reinforcing frame 3 is provided, sufficient strength can be maintained against forces acting from the sides of the chest of drawers. In this respect, in conventional chests, the back plate acts as a strength member against lateral forces on the chest of drawers. Therefore, the conventional chest of drawers with the back panel removed cannot maintain its strength by itself, and is forced to be installed, for example, as a storage facility, which is conventionally attached to a building so that it can be used from both sides. Since the chest of this embodiment has sufficient strength, it is movable without the need for such construction.

FIG. 3 shows an example of a chest of drawers, which is equipped with a shelf 5 and a drawer 6 as a storage section. This chest of drawers is equipped with double doors 2 on both the front and rear so that the shelves 5 and drawers 6 can be used in common from both sides of the chest (only one of the double doors is shown in the figure).
Each drawer 6 is provided with drawer handles 7 on both front and rear surfaces. Although this chest of drawers also has a reinforcing frame 3 provided around its periphery, the reinforcing frame 3 is buried within the top plate, bottom plate, and left and right side plates so as not to protrude to the inner circumferential surface of the drawer.

This chest of drawers can also be used as a partition with the door 2 acting as a partition wall, and the front and rear doors 2 and drawer handle 7 can be used to access each partitioned room for storage. Furthermore, the reinforcing frame 3 maintains strength against lateral forces. FIG. 4 is a plan view of this chest of drawers, showing the state in which the door 2 is opened and the drawer 6 is pulled out both forward and backward.

FIG. 5 shows a wardrobe similar to that shown in FIG. 1, in which reinforcing frames 3 are provided on the side plates of both openings of the chest of drawers instead of at the center in the depth direction of the chest. The clothes hanging rod 4 is supported and attached to, for example, a top plate, as in a normal wardrobe. To attach the reinforcing frame 3 to the side plate or top plate,
This may be done by direct adhesion, screw tightening, etc.
This can also be done as shown in FIG. 6 in a cross-section across the side plate 8. In this mounting example, mounting bars 9 are attached along the side plates 8, the top plate, and the bottom plate by, for example, latches as shown in the figure, and the reinforcing frame 3 is attached to the mounting bars 9 with screws 31. Therefore, even if sufficient screw holding force cannot be obtained by tightening screws to the side plate 8 or the top plate, a strong integration of the reinforcing plate 3 and the chest of drawers can be achieved by using the mounting crosspiece 9. . Further, since the screws 31 are screwed into the back of each chest opening, they do not appear directly on the opening or the side thereof, which is preferable for aesthetics. The shape, dimensions, etc. of the reinforcing frame 3 can be determined as appropriate, as described in the example of FIG. . Such plastics include polycarbonate, ABS resin,
Examples include polyacetal, polyurethane, polyamide, hard polyvinyl chloride, and various FRPs.

The above are only some examples of the chest of drawers, and it goes without saying that the chest of drawers may have various other forms, such as a Japanese dresser, or a chest of drawers appropriately combined with storage parts such as a hanging part, a drawer, and a shelf. Even when two or more chests of drawers are connected to create a partition, each chest of drawers can be used from both the front and back, so
Even if each chest of drawers is configured to have a separate function as a wardrobe, a chest of drawers, etc., there is also the advantage that each room can store items according to their storage needs. Regarding the drawer, if a door is provided to cover it as in the embodiment, the appearance will be more integrated, but when used as a partition, it is not necessarily necessary to cover it with a door. Also, if necessary, a part of the storage section may be made usable only from either the front or the back of the chest of drawers, and the depth of this storage section may extend over the entire depth of the chest of drawers or halfway there. can. Of course, when used as a partition, it can be used in combination with other furniture, such as by placing an upper storage shelf on top.

Effects of the invention As described above, according to the invention, the door or drawer covering the storage area can be used as a shielding surface to partition the living space, and the handles for the door and drawer of the storage area are provided on both the front and rear sides of the chest of drawers. Therefore, it is possible to provide a chest of drawers that can be accessed for storage in each room without having to install a separate chest of drawers in each partitioned room. A reinforcing frame made of metal shapes along the inner periphery is fixed to the inner periphery of the outer wall of the chest of drawers, so even without the back plate of a conventional chest of drawers, it has sufficient strength to withstand forces acting from the sides of the chest of drawers. can be kept. Furthermore, when two or more chests of drawers are used in series, each chest of drawers can be configured to have a separate function, but each chest can be used for storage in each room, which is advantageous for appropriate storage depending on the type of stored items. It is.
