Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a top plate that constitutes a cabinet, and more particularly to a top plate for attaching a water tank that uses water.

(Prior Art) A cabinet with a water tank as shown in FIG.
Since the water used in 0) may be scattered around, it is necessary to take measures against the scattered water in the top plate that constitutes it. That is,
The top plate that constitutes a cabinet with a water tank of this type is generally formed by integrally forming a decorative material having water resistance and excellent in design on the surface of a base material such as plywood. In many cases, it is necessary to prevent the decorative material and the base material from being separated by water.

Further, in the above-described top plate, a front edge member is integrated with the front end of the top plate in order to prevent the water scattered on the top surface from flowing down to the front side. This front edge member is positioned vertically on the front edge of the top plate, but its top edge is slightly projected from the plane formed by the top plate to prevent water from flowing down to the front side. To prevent.

As shown in FIG. 5, the conventional method for constructing the top plate as described above is such that the vertical front edge member (41) is integrated with the front end of the horizontal top plate body (40) and the surface thereof is To melamine cosmetics (42)
Was attached by post-form processing. However, when such a method or structure is adopted, the melamine decorative material (42) has no seam, so the water quality of the top plate is good, but if the decorative material (42) is thin, post-form processing is possible. It cannot be done. But,
When this decorative material (42) is made thin, it is difficult to attach the water tank (30) from the back side of this thin decorative material (42). Of course,
It is not possible to change the color of the decorative material (42) on the top plate body (40) side and the front edge member (41) side to make it superior in design.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, different decorative materials (42) and (43) are attached to the top plate main body (40) and the front edge member (41) respectively, and the top plate main body (40) and its decorative material are attached. A method is also adopted in which the front end of (42) is fitted into a recess formed in the rear surface of the front edge member (41). However, in order to adopt such a method or structure, unless the decorative material (43) on the front edge member (41) side is thin to some extent, this completely covers the upper end of the front edge member (41). It is difficult to integrate in the state. Moreover, there is a problem in that the rear end of the decorative material (43) is peeled off as shown by the phantom line in FIG. 6 due to long-term use. In order to solve this, the portion of the front edge member (41) projecting from the top plate body (40) should be large (for example, 10 mm).
However, the amount of protrusion from the top plate (2 to 3 mm) required for the front edge member (41) of this kind of top plate is required.
The degree is excellent in terms of use and design).

Further, although the structure shown in FIG. 7 has also been adopted, this structure has a decorative material (43) on the front edge member (41) side.
Although the peeling of the front edge member can be prevented, the same problem as in the structure shown in FIG. 6, that is, the upper end of the front edge member (41) must be made higher than necessary, and the front end member
There is a problem that it is difficult to bend the decorative material (43) on the (41) side.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances.
The problem to be solved is the incompleteness of the water finish in the conventional top board and the design difficulty.

An object of the present invention is to provide a top plate for a cabinet with an aquarium with a simple structure, which is easy to manufacture, has a sufficient water finish, and is excellent in design.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the means adopted by the present invention are
