However, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional artificial marble, the cost and weight can be reduced and the strength can be improved by laminating the reinforcing plates, while the above-mentioned reinforcing plate is attached. There was a problem that the work was complicated.

The present invention was devised in view of the current situation, and its purpose is to reduce the cost and weight by forming the upper plate made of artificial marble to be thin and to reduce the cost. It is intended to provide and use an upper plate for furniture which can improve strength without using.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, in the furniture upper plate according to the present invention, a plurality of ridges along the longitudinal direction of the upper plate are provided in parallel on the lower surface of the upper plate made of artificial marble, and It is characterized in that a spacer for a fastener for connecting the above-mentioned upper plate with a furniture body or connecting a sink, a side processing part, etc. to the upper plate is fitted in a long groove formed in the strip. is there.

[Action]

Therefore, in the furniture upper plate according to the present invention, the thickness of the upper plate made of artificial marble is reduced to reduce the cost and weight, and the strength is increased without using the reinforcing material. In order to improve it, a plurality of ridges are installed side by side on the lower surface of the artificial marble upper plate, and the strength of the upper plate is reinforced by these ridges, and spacers etc. are fitted in the long grooves formed in the ridges. The upper plate is attached to the furniture main body through the spacer.

Has been established. The long groove 6 may be formed in a reverse concave shape, or may be formed in a dovetail groove as shown in the drawing.

The reason why the upper plate 1 is formed to be long as described above is because it is considered that the upper plate 1 can be cut in accordance with the frontage dimension of a sink or the like, as is clear from FIG.

As shown in FIG. 3, the upper plate 1 configured as described above is
It is fixed to the upper surface of the sink cabinet 20.

That is, the front side of the upper plate 1 is fixed to the frame 22 of the cabinet with the screws 11, and the rear end of the upper plate 1 is fixed to the horizontal rail 23 of the rear plate 21 with the screws 11. In this case, a spacer 10 shown in FIG. 4 (A) described later is tightly fitted in the long groove 6 of the upper plate 1, and the upper plate 1 and the sink cabinet 20 are fixed via the spacer 10. .

The spacer 10 is formed in a shape that is closely fitted to the long groove 6. For example, when the long groove 6 is formed in a dovetail groove shape, as shown in FIG. 4 (A), A resin-based or wood-based resin having a substantially cup-shaped cross section in which a screw hole a is formed in the center, or a substantially mountain-shaped cross section in which a screw hole a is formed in the center as shown in FIG. 4B. Metal-based, resin-based or metal-based with a substantially trapezoidal cross section in which a screw hole a is formed in the central portion as shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 6D, any of those having a substantially mountain-shaped cross section in which a bolt B is fixed at the center can be used.

Further, when the long groove 6 is formed in a T shape as shown in FIG. 10 (A), the spacer 10 is provided in FIG. 4 (E).
As shown in FIG. 10, the spacer 10 is formed in a T-shape having a screw B in the central portion or when the long groove 6 is formed in a substantially hexagonal shape as shown in FIG. , 4th
As shown in FIG. (F), it may be formed in a substantially hexagonal shape having a screw B in the central portion.

Next, since the upper plate 1 is configured as described above, the sink 8 can be attached and the side processing can be performed as follows.

5 and 6 show an example of mounting the sink 8.

In this example, as shown in FIG. 5 (A), the flange 8a of the sink 8 is attached to the lower surface 1a of the upper plate 1 by the pressing metal fitting 9.

As shown in FIG. 5 (B), the holding metal fitting 9 is formed in a laterally-inclined L shape, and a flat plate portion 9a thereof is provided with a screw insertion hole 9b.

On the other hand, a spacer 10 shown in FIG. 4 (C) is fitted in the dovetail-shaped long groove 6 formed on the lower surface 1 a of the upper plate 1, and the pressing fitting 9 is screwed through the spacer 10. 1
1, the flange portion 8a of the sink 8 is sandwiched between the rising piece portion 9c of the holding metal fitting 9 and the lower surface of the upper plate 1, and the lower surface of the upper plate 1 and the flange portion 8a are adhesive. It is adhered and fixed by (not shown).

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, when the corner portion of the sink 8 is attached to the lower surface of the upper plate 1, the holding metal fitting 9 is formed in a substantially L shape along the corner portion of the sink 8 to have two or more pieces. It is constructed so that it can be bridged over the long grooves 6a, 6b,
By fixing the pressing metal fitting 9 to a spacer (not shown) fitted in the long grooves 6a, 6b by screwing, the corner flange portion 8b of the sink 8 is provided between the pressing metal fitting 9 and the lower surface of the upper plate 1. Sandwich between.

Therefore, even if the sizes (frontage and depth) of the sinks attached to the upper plate 1 are different as shown in FIG. 2, the sinks can be easily attached to the sink openings 7 by using the protrusions 5. be able to.

FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 show a first example of the side treatment of the upper plate 1.

In this example, a wood-based or resin-based flattening member 13 is attached to both end portions of the upper plate 1, and a tape-shaped or flat-plate-shaped side processing member 14 is bonded via the flattening member 13. Fixed.

The flattening member 13 has an uneven upper surface so as to fit with the unevenness of the lower surface 1a, and has a flat lower surface. Then, the spacer 10 shown in FIG. 4 (C) is fitted into the long groove 6, then the flattening member 13 is arranged on the lower surface 1a of the upper plate 1, and the flattening member 13 is fixed by the screw 11. By fixing to the lower surface 1a of both end portions of the upper plate 1, both sides of the upper plate 1 can be formed flat, and as a result, the side processing member 14 formed in a tape shape or a flat plate shape is bonded to the same portion. Can be fixed.

FIG. 9 shows a second example of the side treatment of the upper plate 1.

In this example, a protrusion 15 that closely fits with the long groove 6 is formed on the surface portion 14a facing the side portion of the upper plate 1 of the side processing member 14.
The side processing members 14 can be attached to both sides of the upper plate 1 by bulging and forming the protrusions 15 into the long grooves 6.

In the above embodiment, the case where the long groove 6 is formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this, and is shown in FIG. 10 (A), for example. As shown in FIG. 10 (B), it may be formed in a T-shape, or may be formed in a substantially hexagonal shape. The point is to match the shape of the long groove formed in an appropriate shape. It suffices to form a spacer that fits this.

[Effect of the Invention] As described above, the furniture upper plate according to the present invention has a plurality of protrusions arranged in parallel on the lower surface of the upper plate made of artificial marble, and the protrusions reinforce the strength of the upper plate. At the same time, a spacer or the like is fitted in the long groove formed in the ridge, and the upper plate is attached to the furniture main body through the spacer, so that the thickness of the upper plate made of artificial marble can be reduced. It can be formed to greatly reduce cost and weight, and yet
A number of excellent effects can be achieved, such as the strength can be improved without using a reinforcing material.
