DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a desk with a large wiring function used as a reading table in a library or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, due to the remarkable spread of small portable personal computers and word processors, large-sized communication cables and cords for outlets have been provided so that they can be brought into libraries and used for various tasks. Desks tend to be used.

[0003] The top plate of such a desk generally has a plurality of wiring insertion portions and mounting portions such as outlets, and when inserting or connecting cords or the like to these. The problem is how to arrange the cords in a style.

As one wiring method, it has been considered to provide a U-shaped wiring duct directly below a top plate and store cords in the wiring duct.

[0005]

However, the upper surface of the top plate is divided into front and rear by panels, and both sides of the top plate are sandwiched between the top plate like a large desk in which one top plate can be used from both front and rear sides. However, in the case of having a plurality of wiring insertion portions and the like, simply providing a wiring duct on the back surface of the top plate exposes the cords to be accommodated in the wiring duct to the outside and impairs the appearance.

[0006] In the above-mentioned large desk, usually,
A reinforcing rod is attached to the center of the rear surface of the top plate, but if the reinforcing rod is located at the center, the wiring duct must be attached to a position shifted in the front-rear direction avoiding the reinforcing rod. As a result, the cords derived from one of the front and rear wiring insertion portions or the like are housed in the wiring duct across the reinforcing rod, and thus may fall down and be caught by the hand, foot, or the like.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a code inserted into a plurality of wiring insertion portions is provided in a wiring duct below a top plate without being exposed to the outside. An object of the present invention is to provide a desk with a wiring function that can be easily accommodated.

It is characterized by having been provided.
According to the desk having the above configuration, the cords inserted into the back surface of the top plate through the plurality of wire insertion portions are accommodated in the wiring duct provided between the pair of front and rear reinforcing rods on the back surface of the top plate. The cords protruding below the top plate are blinded by the front and rear reinforcing rods and are not exposed to the outside.

In the above desk, it is preferable that the wiring duct is attached to one of the inner surfaces of each reinforcing rod. In this case, since the installation and installation of the wiring duct is one, not only the operation is simplified, but also a large amount of wiring is completely hidden by both reinforcing rods.

[0010] In the desk, it is preferable that at least one of a pair of support legs for supporting the left and right ends of the top plate is provided with a duct hole which faces in the vertical direction and is opened at both the upper and lower ends. By doing so, the cords derived from the wiring duct can be inserted into the duct holes and pulled out from the lower ends of the support legs, so that there is almost no portion where the cords are exposed below the top plate.
