Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) This invention relates to a drawer device, and more particularly to a drawer device in which a single drawer device consisting of an outer box and a drawer can be freely connected in the horizontal and vertical directions.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, various storage devices and devices have been used in which a plurality of individual devices are connected together so that they can be used in a variety of ways.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, many of the conventionally known devices do not anticipate that they will be used to store heavy objects or connect a large number of objects, and do not have sufficient strength when connected. Therefore, the objects that could be stored tended to be limited.

In view of these points, the present invention aims to provide a drawer device with significantly improved strength when connected.

(Means for Solving the Problems) That is, this invention is a drawer device in which a single drawer device consisting of an outer box and a drawer can be freely connected in the horizontal and vertical directions. The side plate includes a right side upper and lower connecting member in the form of a side column having a concave portion and a convex portion that fit into each other in the upper and lower portions approximately at the center, and right side left and right side members having vertical fitting grooves at the front and rear of the upper and lower connecting members. In addition to forming connecting members, the left side plate of the outer box has recesses and protrusions that fit into the upper and lower parts at positions that do not come into contact with the right upper and lower connecting members at approximately the center when connected. It is characterized by forming a left vertical connecting member in the form of a side column, and left left and right connecting members each having a vertical fitting groove that fits into a fitting groove of the right left and right connecting member at the front and rear of the vertical connecting member. This relates to a connected drawer device.

(Example) The explanation will be given below according to the attached drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the entire drawer device of this invention in a stacked and connected state, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the drawer device itself, and FIG. A partially omitted cross-sectional view taken along line 3-3 in the figure, Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of the main parts showing the connected state of the left and right connecting members, and Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of the main parts showing the connected state of the upper and lower connecting members. It is.

As shown in FIG. 1, this devised device is a drawer device in which a single drawer device 10 consisting of an outer box 12 and a drawer 11 can be freely connected in the left-right direction and the vertical direction. The present invention relates to a high-strength drawer device that can be connected in large numbers and used for storing relatively heavy items such as small automobile parts such as plugs.

As understood from FIG. 2, the drawer 11 is provided with a pull portion 15 and a suitable display portion 16 on the front surface. It goes without saying that the outer box 12 holds the drawer 11 slidably at least in the forward direction. In this invention, the side plates 13 and 14 of the outer box 12 are provided with connecting members as described below.

That is, the side plate 13 located on the right side of the outer box 12
To explain, the right side plate 13 is integrally provided with a side column-shaped right side vertical connection member 20 approximately at the center thereof. A recess 21 and a protrusion 22 are formed in the upper and lower parts of the upper and lower connecting member 20 so as to fit into each other. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, when the single drawer units 10 are stacked, the upper and lower connecting members 20, 20 of both units are configured such that the concave portion 21 and the convex portion 22 fit together at the stacked portion. ing.

Further, on the right side plate 13, right side left and right connecting members 25, 2 are provided on the front and back of the right side upper and lower connecting member 20.
6 is provided. This right side left and right connecting member 2
Fitting grooves 27 and 28 having a substantially L-shaped cross section are formed in the vertical direction of the fitting grooves 5 and 26, respectively.

Next, the side plate 14 located on the left side of the outer box 12 will be described next. A left side vertical connection member 30 in the form of a side column is provided approximately at the center of the left side plate 14.
This left vertical connecting member 30 does not need to be structurally different from the above-mentioned right vertical connecting member 20, but it should be placed in a position where it does not come into contact with the right vertical connecting member 20 when the drawer unit is connected horizontally. provided. Reference numerals 31 and 32 are recesses and protrusions that fit into each other, and these are similar to those of the right-side upper and lower connecting member 20 described above.

In addition, left side and left side connection members 35 and 36 are provided in front and behind the upper left side vertical connection member 30, respectively.

These left left and right connecting members 35 and 36 are formed in a relationship that they fit together with the aforementioned right and left right connecting members 25 and 26 as shown in FIG. 37 and 38 fit into the fitting grooves 27 and 28 of the right-side left and right connecting members 25 and 26.

(Operation/Effect) In the drawer device of this invention having the above configuration, when connecting, the upper and lower connecting members and the left and right connecting members provided on the side plates of each drawer device alone are fitted together in the vertical direction. and can be freely combined in the left and right directions. In particular, in this invention, since vertical connecting members in the form of side columns are provided on the left and right side plates, the strength in the vertical direction during stacking can be significantly increased by the connecting members. Furthermore, since the left and right side plates are also provided with left and right connecting members having vertical fitting grooves, the strength of the side plates is dramatically increased.

Furthermore, according to this invention, the load during connection is held by the left and right side plates and is not applied to the top or bottom surface of the outer box, so no more load than necessary is applied to the drawer itself, and the drawer itself It does not interfere with the use of the door and can be opened and closed smoothly.
