Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a cutting board holder in a draining shelf for storing and holding cutting boards, mainly by utilizing a draining shelf suspended in a kitchen.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

Conventional cutting board holders of this type include those shown in FIG. 6 and those shown in FIG. 7.

The former cutting board holder 30 is a shelf rack 3 in a draining shelf.
A pair of U-shaped arms 32 attached to the bottom side of 1
was holding a cutting board. However, since the arm 32 is a so-called single-point support with only one end attached to the shelf 31, in order to sufficiently hold a cutting board that has a certain weight, the U-shaped arm 32 must be thick and the material must be It was necessary to use something that was physically strong, which inevitably led to high costs.

The latter cutting board holder 40 stores one end of the board in a recessed holder 42 attached to the side surface of the draining shelf 41 and holds it in an upright state. However, installing a separate holder on the side of the draining rack to store the cutting board is uneconomical as it takes up extra space, and holding the cutting board only at the end is difficult to maintain. Another problem was that the situation was unstable.

[Purpose of invention]

The present invention was developed based on the above-mentioned circumstances, and in addition to skillfully utilizing the space of the drainer shelf, it is possible to store and hold a cutting board in a stable state without using a support arm that is made of thick and strong material. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cutting board holder for a draining rack that is inexpensive.

[Summary of the idea]

To achieve the above object, the cutting board holder in the draining shelf of the present invention is provided with a cutting board holder that is equipped with a shelf board made of a plurality of shelf bars arranged in parallel, and which forms grooves that open on the lower surface of the shelf bars. A guide groove is formed inside the strip along the longitudinal direction, and both sides of the support arm suspended from the shelf frame are bent into a hook shape, and a pair of curved pieces are attached to the bent ends to be locked in the guide groove. At the same time, by attaching the fixed piece provided with the support arm and elastically engaging the auxiliary piece that is loosely inserted into the support arm, the pair of support arms can be slid diagonally inward relative to each other on the shelf bars located in the front and back. Characterized by hanging.

[Example of idea]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a cutting board holder in a draining rack according to the present invention will be specifically explained with reference to drawings showing embodiments.

As shown in FIG. 1, the draining shelf 10 used in the embodiment has hanging frames 1 arranged facing each other on both sides.
and a lower shelf board 2 constructed under the hanging frame,
It consists of an upper shelf board 3 located above the lower shelf board and fixed at an intermediate position of the hanging frame.

The upper shelf board 3 is made up of a plurality of shelf bars 4 arranged in parallel at equal intervals and connected at both ends with a stop bar 5, and each shelf bar 4 is a shelf support holder constructed at an intermediate position of the hanging frame 1. 6 is placed and fixed. Each shelf frame 4 has a second
As shown in the figure, it is formed into a hollow cross section by extrusion, provided with a groove 4A open to the lower surface, and further provided with a guide groove 4B inside thereof along the longitudinal direction.

By the way, in Fig. 1, 7 indicates a pair of support arms that serve as cutting board holders in the present invention.
Both sides of each support arm are bent into a hook shape, and the guide grooves of the shelves in the front row and the guide grooves of the shelves in the last row are connected via locking pieces 8 attached to both bent ends. By slidably locking the pair of support arms 7, 7, the upper shelf board 3 is moved inwardly at an angle of about 45 degrees to each other in the front and back direction.
is suspended from the bottom of the

As shown in FIG. 3, the locking piece 8 consists of a fixing piece 8A molded from synthetic resin and an auxiliary piece 8B also molded from synthetic resin. The fixed piece 8A includes an upper piece 9a,
It consists of a pair of curved pieces 9b, 9b that bulge outward from both side edges of the upper piece, and each end of the support arm 7 is screwed into the center of the upper piece 9a from below. There is. The auxiliary piece 8B has raised portions 9c on both sides.
and a flange 9e provided at the lower end of the protrusion.
The support arm 7 is loosely inserted into a through hole 9f that runs longitudinally through the protrusion 9d and the collar 9e. Therefore, the curved pieces 9b of the fixed piece 8A screwed onto both ends of the support arm 7 are moved into the guide groove 4 by using elasticity.
If the protrusion 9d is inserted into the inside of the curved piece 9 and pushed from below between the pair of curved pieces 9b, the raised parts 9c and 9c on both sides will fit into the curved piece 9, as shown in FIG.
b, 9b using elasticity, and both ends of the support arm 7 are slidably locked in the guide groove 4B by the lower ends of the curved pieces 9b, 9b.

In this way, the distance between the front sides of the pair of support arms 7, 7 suspended diagonally inward from each other in the depth direction on the lower surface of the upper shelf board 3 is determined as follows:
After adjusting the cutting board to be slightly wider than the longitudinal length of the chopping board, insert the bent upright piece on the back side of both support arms into the space on the lower surface side of the upper shelf board 3 formed between the pair of support arms 7, 7. When the cutting board 11 is inserted until it makes contact with the cutting board 11, the cutting board 11 is deeply supported in the depth direction by both inward supporting arms 7, 7 as if cross-hinged, as shown in FIG. It can be stored and held in a stable state adjacent to the lower surface of the upper shelf board 3. At this time, the bent upright pieces of the support arm 7 come into contact with the left and right edges and the rear edge of the accommodated cutting board, thereby serving as a stopper.
At this time, if both support arms are tilted downward toward the depth direction, the stored chopping board will not slide down to the front side, so it can be stored and held in a more stable state, which is convenient.

In addition, FIG. 8 shows an arrangement in which a curved portion 17a is formed at the end of the support arm 17, and the support arm is slidably suspended from the round shelf frame 14 using the curved portion 17a. .

It goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and includes various modifications within the scope of the gist of the present invention. For example, the inclination of the pair of support arms suspended from the bottom surface of the shelf is not limited to 45 degrees;
It is sufficient that the inclination angle is such that the cutting board can be stably held by both support arms in a state where the cutting board is crossed.
Therefore, it is desirable that the pair of support arms be diagonally inward to each other at an angle of about 30 to 60 degrees. Furthermore, the locking pieces attached to both ends of the pair of support arms are not limited to those of the above embodiments, but any locking piece that can be slidably locked in the guide groove on the lower surface of the shelf board is sufficient.

[Effect of idea]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it produces the following effects.

In other words, the pair of support arms that are suspended from the guide grooves on the bottom of the shelf are supported at two points, with both ends bent to both sides locked in the guide grooves. The cutting board can be held safely without using anything strong, and it can be easily attached to the rack using its elasticity, making it convenient to handle.

Further, since the pair of support arms are suspended diagonally inward from each other on the lower surface of the shelf board, the space in the draining shelf can be skillfully utilized to store and hold the cutting board in an appropriate and stable state.

Furthermore, since the pair of support arms slides along the guide groove, they can be positioned at appropriate positions on the lower surface of the shelf.
Boards of different lengths in the longitudinal direction can be appropriately stored and held.
