Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a table provided with a lighting device.

[Conventional technology]

Lighting from the ceiling is usually used as the lighting for dining at the table. However, when drinking or to enjoy the atmosphere of a meal, a table lamp or the like is placed on the table and only the table portion is illuminated.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, placing a table lamp or the like on the table reduces the available area on the table. In addition, the fact that there is a desk lamp or the like in front of the user is also an eyesore.

The present invention has been devised to solve the above problems, and an object thereof is to illuminate a table without narrowing the effective area of the table and without disturbing the eyes of the user. .

[Means for Solving the Problems]

The table of the present invention is provided with a cutout portion at the peripheral portion of the table plate, and a cavity for incorporating a light source is formed from the cutout portion toward the center side of the table plate, and a fluorescent lamp is provided in the cavity portion. In addition to incorporating a light source such as the above, the notch is covered by a translucent cover having a shape continuous with the outer contour of the table plate, and the cover at least laterally around the edge of the table plate is an irradiation surface of light from the light source. It is characterized by

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, features of the present invention will be specifically described based on embodiments with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the same main part.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a rectangular table plate, and legs 2 are attached to the four corners of the table plate 1, respectively.
The lighting device 3 is attached to the side portion. As shown in FIG. 2, the table plate 1 connects the top plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 arranged in parallel to each other, and connects the top plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 to each other from the outer peripheral edge of the table plate 1 to the center side. The connecting member 6 is provided at a portion slightly recessed toward the back. Also,
Side plates 7 orthogonal to each other are attached to the four corners of the table plate 1. Further, notches 4a, 5a are formed in the top plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 on the four sides of the table plate 1. The cutout 5a of the bottom plate 5 is formed deeper than the cutout 4a of the top plate 4.

The notches 4a and 5a of the top plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 are provided laterally by the top plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 and the connecting member arranged a little behind the table plate 1 from the outer peripheral edge toward the center side. A cavity is opened, and the fluorescent lamp 8 is incorporated in this cavity. The fluorescent lamp 8 is fixed to the side plate 7 by a socket (not shown). Then, a translucent cover 9 is provided which is bent in a substantially J-shaped cross section so as to cover the notch 4a of the top plate 4, the notch 5a of the bottom plate 5 and the side edge of the table plate 1. As the cover 9, a transparent, semi-transparent or milky white synthetic resin plate can be used. Steps 9a and 9b are formed at both ends of the cover 9 in the bending direction. By fitting these steps 9a and 9b to the end faces of the top plate 4 and the bottom plate 5, the table plate 1 is attached. In contrast, the cover 9 is attached.

When using the table configured as described above, if the fluorescent lamp 8 is turned on, the light from the fluorescent lamp 8 is
It is radiated to the outside through the cover 9. At this time, the top plate 4
Since the notches 4a and 5a are formed in the bottom plate 5 and the bottom plate 5, respectively, not only the side of the table plate 1 but also the obliquely upper and lower parts are illuminated. Generally, the lower side of the table plate 1 is dark because the illumination light from the ceiling does not reach it, and when the feet are not guided or the item is placed under the table plate 1, the item can be seen well. There is no problem,
By forming the notch 5a of the bottom plate 5 deep as in this embodiment, the lower side of the table plate 1 can be sufficiently illuminated.

Further, since the peripheral edge portion of the table plate 1 itself shines, it is possible to create a good atmosphere as an interior which has not existed in the past.

FIG. 3 shows a sectional view of the essential parts of a second embodiment of the present invention. The members corresponding to those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals.

In the second embodiment, a socket is provided at the center of the top plate 4.
The fluorescent lamp 18 is attached via the 18a, an opening 5b is formed in the center of the bottom plate 15, and the opening 5b is covered with a cover 5c. In the second embodiment, since the illumination below the table plate 1 is mainly performed by the fluorescent lamp 18, the notch 15a on the bottom plate 15 side does not need to be formed so deeply, and is approximately the same as the notch 4a of the top plate 4. If Further, since the notch 15a becomes shallow, the connecting member 6 can be brought closer to the outer peripheral side, and the fluorescent lamp 8 can be connected via the socket 8a.
It can also be attached to.

Then, a cover 19 is provided on the side of the fluorescent lamp 8 as in the first embodiment.
Is attached. Also, fluorescent lamps 8,18 or covers 9,1
9,5c may be colored, in this case the illumination light is colored,
It can be used as mood lighting and enhance the atmosphere during eating and drinking.

FIG. 4 shows the usage state of the third embodiment of the present invention.
Here, the table is used in combination with the system kitchen.

In this embodiment, the table board is divided into four child table boards 21a to 21d, each child table 21a to 21d and the leg portion 22.
And a height adjusting mechanism (not shown) that can be independently adjusted. Then, the lighting device 23a ₁ to one another two adjacent sides of each child table plate _{21a~21d, 23a 2, 23b 1,} 23b 2, 23
c ₁ , 23c ₂ , 23d ₁ and 23d ₂ are provided. Then, as shown in the drawing, the height of each child table board 21a to 21d is made different according to the preference of the user, so that each person can have a meal or the like in an optimal state. In this case, each child table board
The upper surfaces of 21a to 21d are illuminated by the illumination device of another child table board located above it. For example, the upper surface of the child table plate 21d is illuminated by the illumination apparatus 23c ₁ of the illumination device 23b ₂ and the child table plate 21c of the child table plate 21b. Therefore, sufficient illuminance can be obtained on the table board.

In the figure, 31 is the floor cabinet of the system kitchen, and 32 is the wall cabinet.

[Effect of device]

In the present invention, since the light source is incorporated in the hollow portion extending from the notch formed in the peripheral edge of the table plate to the back side and the notch is covered with the translucent cover, the entire surface of the table plate can be effectively used. It is possible to illuminate the periphery of the table plate without impairing usability, and for example, it is possible to obtain an illumination space having a different atmosphere from the atmosphere created by illumination from the ceiling.
