[0002]

[Background of the invention]

 For example, balls used for physical education in elementary and junior high schools and for ball games used by middle school and high school club activities and business teams are stored in dedicated storage equipment, but the storage equipment used for that purpose is generally simple. The mainstream is a box or basket with an open top, and it is merely devised to attach wheels (fixed / movable casters) to them to make it easier to move. However, considering the actual usage situation, the balls stored in them are not always uniform, and it is always necessary to sort them. For example, when practicing, the air of the ball may escape, so it is necessary to sort such inappropriate balls separately from normal ones so that they will not be used again. Need to be sorted and stored, or sorted according to size and stored. Of course, there are many cases in which they are sorted and used in this way, but on the other hand, there are cases where it is not always necessary to sort and store them.

Of course, when all the balls to be stored are uniform and there is no need to sort them, the movable shelves should be located at the top of the storage main body and the whole space should be used as one undivided space.

[0008]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the illustrated embodiments. Reference numeral 1 denotes a storage device for ball games balls or the like according to the present invention, which is, for example, a cubic basket-shaped storage main body 2 made of a metal wire or the like as a main member, and has a lower surface for moving. Considering this, the fixed and movable casters 3 are provided as an example.

The storage main body 2 will be described below in detail. This storage main body 2 has a substantially square bottom frame portion 5 provided with side frame portions 6 so as to stand up from the four peripheral edges thereof, thereby forming a basket having an upper opening. The upper surface serves as an upper opening 7, and a side opening 8 is formed below a part of the side frame portion 6 to form an inside as a storage portion 9. A movable shelf 10 is provided in the storage body 2 as a characteristic configuration of the present proposal. This is a substantially rectangular member sized so that it can fit in the storage section 9, and is locked to a shelf frame guide 11 provided inside one side frame section 6. It is configured in a closed state.

It should be noted that the shelf frame guide 11 is, as an example, formed of a metal wire rod formed from the upper side to a height close to the middle inside the side frame portion 6, and the upper portion thereof partially projects to the outside. Then, the upper rotation guide portion 12 is configured. The eyering-shaped engaging portion 13 of the movable shelf 10 is locked to the outer frame of the shelf frame guide 11 as described above. The movable shelf 10 has a hook-shaped tip locking portion 14 on its free end side, and this movable rack 10 has an upper horizontal rail 6A or an intermediate horizontal rail 6B of the side frame portion 6 on the side facing the shelf frame guide 11. Lock on.

Of course, such a combination of the movable shelf 10 and the shelf frame guide 11 is configured such that the movable shelf 10 appropriately rotates in a lid shape at an upper position and has a shelf shape in an intermediate portion. Therefore, an appropriate structure can be adopted as long as such an object can be achieved. For example, the shelf frame guide 11 can also be used as the vertical crosspiece 6C of the side frame portion 6. Further, the engaging portion 13 is formed in an eye ring shape that is fitted onto the shelf frame guide 11, but the tip is bent like a hook as shown in FIG. There is no problem even if the guide 11 is fitted inside.

Further, a side door 15 is provided for the side opening 8, which is formed by combining crosspiece-shaped members, and as an example, the lower part is a rotation fulcrum 16. .. As a result, the side door 15 pivots in a so-called upward-opening manner, and a catch 17 that engages with the intermediate cross rail 6B of the side frame 6 is provided on the free end side.

The present invention has a specific structure as described above, and it is used as follows. First, when the balls B to be stored are sorted into two types and stored, the movable shelf 10 is used in a state of being lowered to an intermediate position of the storage body 2. That is, in the initial state, the movable shelf 10 provided in the uppermost portion of the storage main body 2 in a lid shape raises its free end side as shown in FIG. 4 (a) and faces the hook-shaped tip locking portion 14. After the side frame 6 is disengaged from the upper horizontal rail 6A, the engaging portion 13 of the movable shelf 10 is slightly displaced downwardly from the upper rotation guide portion 12 side so that the free shelf side of the movable shelf 10 is engaged. The movable shelf 10 is slid downward so that the joint portion 13 does not hit the upper horizontal rail 6A of the side frame portion 6.

As shown in FIG. 4B, after the engaging portion 13 of the movable frame 10 is located at the lowest point of the shelf frame guide 11 (near the middle of the storage main body 2), the tip locking portion 14 thereof is provided. Is locked to the intermediate horizontal rail 6B of the side frame portion 6 and is locked in a state where the position is selected. At this time, as shown in FIG. 1, the movable shelf 10 is preferably in a state of being inclined with respect to the horizontal state with a slightly different locking height before and after. At this time, it is desirable that the direction of the crosspiece is along the inclination direction. By doing so, the storage main body 2 has the storage portions 9 formed above and below the movable shelf 10 in between. Incidentally, these storage parts 9 are indicated as an upper storage part 9A and a lower storage part 9B.

After the above setting, the ball B is stored in the upper storage portion 9A through the upper opening 7 and the side door 15 is opened in the lower storage portion 9B. Store. Of course, when taking out the ball B, the ball B in the upper storage portion 9A is taken out from the upper opening 7 and the ball B stored in the lower storage portion 9B is taken out from the side door 15 on the contrary. At this time, when the movable shelf 10 is tilted, the balls B gather on the lower side of the tilt in the upper storage portion 9A, and it is easy to take out the balls.

Here, the side door 15 is provided with the rotation fulcrum 16 on the bottom edge side of the storage body 2, so that the side door 15 is opened when it is opened as shown in FIG. 2, for example. Since the guide slope 15 is formed so that the portion where the bottom part is slightly lifted by the caster 3 is smoothly continuous, the storage of the ball B and the like can be facilitated. Of course, if necessary, a lid frame 20 may be additionally provided as shown by a phantom line in FIG. 2 so that the lid can be provided even when the storage body 2 is divided into two stages. Further, the lid frame 20, the movable shelf 10 used as the lid, and the side doors 15 can be individually locked, or each door can be locked at once by a locker frame. It is also possible to

In addition, even if the balls B are excessively stored in the lower storage portion 9B in the stored state, the movable shelf 10 is lifted up by the balls B, but only has a partitioning function. Therefore, even in such a state, the storage function can be achieved without any hindrance. Incidentally, if the shelf as the partition of the middle part is fixed, the balls B of different types can be sorted and stored in two types, but the degree of freedom of the storage space is lost, and one side is excessive. When the number of balls B becomes large, a storage limit occurs and a useless space is generated, so that the space cannot be effectively used.

[0018]

[Effect of the device]

 The storage device for a ball game or the like of the present invention has the structure as described above, and by disposing the movable shelf 10 to the storage body 2, the storage body 2 is divided in the vertical direction, and the storage portion 9 is separated. Since the balls can be partitioned, different types of balls B 1 can be effectively sorted and stored. Further, since the movable shelf 10 is not necessarily set in a fixed state, when there are many balls B to be stored in the lower storage portion 9B, they are only pushed up and moved upward, and are moved downward. It is possible to store balls B with a high degree of freedom without limiting the number of balls B that can be stored.

Further, when the side door 15 which is the intake of the lower storage portion 9B is configured with the lower end edge of the storage main body 2 as the pivot fulcrum 16, when the side door 15 is inclined in the open state, the tip end is on the floor. Since it is attached to the surface, it serves as a guide for storing the balls B and the like, and enables smooth storage. Further, when the casters 3 as wheels are provided on the storage body 2, the movement thereof can be easily performed.
