Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a shoe cabinet with a chair or a seat.

[Conventional technology]

In Japan, there is a custom of changing footwear at the entrance, so most households have a shoe rack, usually located at the entrance. However, modern houses do not have large entrances like traditional houses, so there are inconveniences such as not being able to put on shoes while sitting in the entrance, and if the entrance is large, you have to put on your shoes at a distance from the shoe rack. It was hot.

Furthermore, although the entryway is the place where most customers come and go and where people often talk, the current housing situation means that there is not enough space to put a chair.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems.In addition to allowing guests to sit and put on their shoes right next to the shoe rack, it also provides a shoe rack with a chair where guests can sit and talk. It is something to do.

[Means to solve the problem]

The shoe rack with a chair of the present invention is characterized in that a lower part of the shoe rack or the shoe rack with an entrance counter is configured to be able to automatically project forward, and the projecting part becomes a chair.

More specifically, when the shoe rack is divided into three parts in the horizontal direction, the lower part of the central part of the shoe cabinet is designed to be able to protrude forward, and the protruding part becomes a chair. It is characterized in that the part can be moved forward and backward by a driving means such as a motor.

The part other than the protruding part that becomes the chair will be a footwear storage part with a normal structure. That is, although shelves are normally provided in multiple stages vertically at a height that accommodates footwear such as shoes, it is also possible to provide a space extending vertically for storing umbrellas and the like.

The front side of the footwear compartment may be supported by a hinge at one side end so that it opens in the form of a door, or it may be in the form of a sliding door like a normal shoe cabinet. When using a door type door, there can be no door in front of the protruding part, but in the case of a sliding door, it is better to have the protruding part inside the sliding door. A similar door or door should be provided on the shelf above the protruding part to store footwear, etc. Note that this portion may be a door that opens upward.

It is preferable that a cushion sheet be provided on the upper surface of the protruding part as a chair, and this seat part can be used in place of a lid so that footwear or the like can be placed inside the protruding part.

The protruding part rotates an electric motor attached to the inside or rear part of the protruding part, and the gear attached to the shaft of the motor rotates along the rack provided on the shoe rack body, so that the protruding part is removed from the shoe rack. It is recommended that the protruding part be pulled into the shoe rack by rotating the motor in the opposite direction. You can also attach the motor to the shoe cabinet and reverse the position of the gear and rack.

It is best to attach casters to the bottom of the protruding part or provide a plastic slide rail.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of the present invention, in which the protruding portion that becomes the chair is pulled out.

In the case of this example, the shoe rack 1 is divided into three parts in the horizontal direction, and as shown in the figure, a protruding part 2 is provided in the lower part of the central part so that it can be pulled out, and the left and right parts are used to store footwear. They are equipped with doors 4, 4, respectively, and are designed to open left and right. The part above the shelf board 8 of the shoe rack main body, that is, the part above the protruding part 2, similarly serves as a shoe storage, and sliding doors 5, 5 are provided in this part.

A seat plate 11 is attached to the upper surface of the protruding part 2 in the form of a raised lid so that it can be opened and closed freely, so that articles such as footwear can be placed inside the protruding part 2.

Usually, the shoe rack body is placed on an architrave 7. The part of the protruding part above the architrave 7 may protrude in front of the shoe rack, but in this example, the front plate 10 of the protruding part 2 has a length that reaches the architrave 7 as shown in the figure. As shown in FIG.
The protruding part is designed to run on the floor surface when it is attached.

In the shoe cabinet of this example, the protruding part 2 can be pulled out by hand, but it can also be made to protrude by a drive device. This device will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.

FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of the shoe rack shown in FIG. 1 in a state where the protruding portion 2 is inside the shoe rack. In the figure, the part surrounded by the front plate 10, side plate 12, and back plate 15 is the protruding part 2, and there is a slight space between the back plate 15 of the protruding part and the back plate 9 of the shoe rack main body. A horizontal shelf board 17 fixed to the protruding portion 2 is provided behind the back plate 15, and a motor 19 is mounted on this shelf board 17 as shown in FIG. In addition,
Reference numeral 16 indicates a partition plate inside the protruding portion 2.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a gear 20 is attached to the tip of the shaft 13 of the motor 19, and this gear 20 is provided in the partition plate 6 adjacent to the side plate 12 of the protruding portion 2. When the gear 20 is rotated by the drive of the motor 19, the gear 20 moves inside the rack 18, thereby causing the protruding part 2 to move outside the shoe rack. It can stick out or be stored in a shoe cabinet.

The motor 19 is started or stopped by a switch (not shown). The switch may be installed in the shoe cabinet or at an appropriate position at the entrance. Furthermore, it may be used as a remote control switch.

Since the shoe rack of this embodiment is constructed as described above, the protruding part acts as a chair, so when guests arrive, there is no need to stand and talk at the entrance.
It also has the advantage of eliminating the need for customers to stand and wait. In addition, it can be used for elderly people and children to put on shoes by sitting on the protruding part, or to temporarily store luggage.

[Effect of idea]

In this invention, as mentioned above, the protruding part that can be used as a chair is provided so that it can be pulled out and stored in the shoe cabinet, so even if it is installed in a narrow entrance, it will not get in the way and the same effect as placing a chair in the entrance can be obtained. .
