Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] Industrial applications The present invention relates to a furniture device with a lighting body.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY Conventionally, when illuminating a worktop such as a sink, a hanging cabinet 23 is installed on the wall surface 22 above the worktop 21, as shown in FIG.
A lighting device 24 is attached to the bottom of the. 2 in the diagram
5 is a window.

Problems that the invention attempts to solve However, with this installation method, the lighting device 2
4 is fixed under the hanging cabinet 23, so the light emitting area is a constant size. In addition, when installing a window 25 above the worktop 21 for natural lighting and ventilation, if it is installed at the lowest possible position considering the usability of the hanging cabinet 23, the height of the main body of the lighting device 24 will be 25, the dimensions must be as small as possible. Therefore, conventional lighting devices can only be used as hand illumination for work on a worktop, and the range of illumination that can be controlled is narrow.

Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide a furniture device that can make full use of natural lighting during the day, and after sunset, can illuminate not only the hand but also a wider space, thereby expanding the range of use. It is.

Means for Solving the Problems The technical means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is that in a furniture device in which a hanging cabinet is disposed above a window on the upper wall of the worktop, the back of the hanging cabinet and the wall are connected. In between, there is provided a storage section having an opening at the bottom and a stopper at a predetermined position inside the opening, and a panel-shaped illumination body that moves in the vertical direction is disposed in this storage section. The furniture device has a structure in which the body can be freely locked in a predetermined position by the stopper.

Effect The effect of this technical means is as follows.

That is, during the daytime when artificial lighting is not required, the entire lighting body is housed in the housing so that it does not interfere with natural light coming in from the window. Furthermore, if you want to use natural lighting as well as hand illumination, you can use it so that a part of the illumination body comes out from the lower end of the storage part. In addition, when natural lighting is unavailable, such as after sunset, the entire lighting body can be pulled down and used not only for illumination at hand but also for illuminating a wider space.

As a result, by moving up and down, it becomes possible to provide a wide range of illumination, not only as conventional hand illumination, but also as a substitute for natural lighting after sunset. Furthermore, it becomes possible to provide lighting according to the amount of natural lighting.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 4.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a worktop of a sink, and a hanging cabinet 3 serving as a storage space is installed above a window 11 on an upper wall surface 2 of the worktop. This hanging cabinet 3 has, in a part of its back, a storage part 5 for a panel-shaped illumination body 4 in which, for example, an annular fluorescent lamp or a plurality of straight tube fluorescent lamps are arranged, and a part of the storage part 5 has a rail 6. is provided, and the lighting body 4 is guided by the rail 6 so as to be vertically movable. The illumination body 4 has a pull lever 7 for vertical movement. There are stoppers 8, 9, and 10 inside the storage section 5. The stoppers 8 and 9 are connected to the main body of the hanging cabinet 3 by springs 10 and 11, respectively, as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1, the illumination body 4 is entirely housed in a storage section and is supported by a stopper 8.
As shown in FIG. 2, when the illumination body 4 is partially pulled down for use, it is supported by a stopper 9. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the illumination body 4 is supported by a stopper 10 when the entire illumination body 4 is pulled down for use.

In the above configuration, during the daytime, the illumination body 4 is stored in the storage part 5 at the rear of the hanging cabinet 3, and the window 11 is exposed as shown in FIG. 1, so that natural light illuminates a wide area. In addition, when the illumination body 4 is partially pulled out as shown in Fig. 2, and at night, the illumination body 4
as shown in Figure 3, pull it out in front of the window 11,
It also provides extensive illumination.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, the present invention makes it possible to change the effective light emitting area as necessary by providing a vertically movable illumination body on the back of the hanging cabinet above the window. become. Therefore,
Depending on the amount of natural daylight, such as during the day or after sunset, it can be used not only for hand illumination, but also for illuminating a wider space, expanding its uses.
