Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] This invention relates to a low table type kotatsu.

Traditionally, a Japanese-style room has a low table in the summer and a kotatsu in the winter, but these have to be replaced and stored between the summer and winter, which is a hassle.

Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to propose a low table type kotatsu that can be used both as a low table and a kotatsu.
A main body 1 consisting of a support leg 1b and a top plate 4 that can be placed on the main body 1 in a separable manner are provided. A covering plate 2C that forms a storage space 1d penetrating the front and back sides, is provided with an electric heater 3 on the lower surface, and covers the electric heater 3 on the front surface.
The present invention is characterized in that an electric heater holding frame 2 equipped with the above-mentioned electric heater holding frame 2 is reversibly installed in the storage space 1d.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings will be described.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a main body, which has a curtain plate 1a around its periphery and support legs 1b on all sides, which have the appearance of a low table.

A board 1C is stretched inside the curtain board 1a except for the central part,
An electric heater storage space 1d penetrating the front and back is formed in the center thereof.

The electric heater holding frame 2 is housed in the electric heater storage space 1d, and the center portions of the front and rear frames are connected to pins 2a, 2a.
is rotatably supported by the front and rear curtain plates 1a, 1a,
When the frame 2 is in the storage space 1d, the pin 2a is inserted into the storage space 1d.

It is designed to be reversed around 2a.

2b is a fixing bolt provided on the holding frame 2, which is attached to the curtain plate 1.
By screwing together the nut provided on the inner surface of a, the holding frame 2
is fixed to the curtain plate 1a.

Reference numeral 3 uses an electric heater similar to that used in a normal kotatsu, and the electric heater 3 is fixed in the center of the holding frame 2 facing toward the lower surface thereof.

The surface of the electric heater 3 is covered with a covering plate 2C.

4 is a top plate, which is formed separately from the main body 1 and includes a curtain plate 1a;
It can be placed on top or separated.

Nuts 1 to 4a are provided on the back surface of the top plate 4, and an insertion hole 1e that matches the nut 4a is provided in the plate 1C. The top plate 4 can be fixed onto the main body 1 by screwing into the insertion hole 1e and the nut 4a from the back side.

The auxiliary leg 6 which also serves as a fixing bolt can be screwed onto the lower end of the supporting leg 1b, and its bolt portion 6a is screwed into a female tab 1f carved on the lower surface of the supporting leg 1b. This allows the supporting leg 1b to be extended.

Reference numeral 4b denotes a slip-preventing piece for the top plate 4, which is formed so as to fit into the storage space, and when used as a kotatsu, as shown in FIG. By pressing the tongue 7 from above and fitting it into the storage space 1d, the misalignment between the top plate 4 and the kotatsu tongue 7 is corrected.

Reference numeral 4C denotes four parts that house the upper end of the electric heater 3.

As described above, when using it as a low table, rotate the holding frame 2 so that the electric heater 3 faces upward, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and attach the fixing bolts 2b
Fix it.

Then, the top plate 4 is placed on the curtain plate 1a and fixed with the fixing pole I and the auxiliary legs 6, as shown in FIG.

As a result, the supporting legs 1b are short, and the curtain plate 1a, top plate 4, and 1
) A low table with the appearance of a low table is formed.

In addition, in this form, the electric heater 3 is covered with the cover plate 2C and is not visible from the outside, so even if it is placed against a wall or the like when not in use, the electric heater 3 is not exposed on the back side and has a good appearance. To convert this low table form into a kotatsu, remove the fixing bolts and auxiliary legs 6 from the top plate 4, remove the top plate from the curtain plate 1a, then loosen the fixing pole l-2b and attach it to the curtain plate 1a. The holding frame 2 is inverted, and in the inverted state G, the fixing bolt 2b is tightened to the curtain plate 1a side to fix the holding frame 2.

In addition, attach the auxiliary leg 6 that also serves as the fixing bolt that was removed as described above to the supporting leg 1.
Screw it onto the bottom end of b.

Then, as shown in Fig. 2, the kotatsubutton 7 is placed over the main body 1, and the top plate 4 is placed in such a manner that the slip prevention piece 4b formed on the back side of the top plate 4 is located in the storage space 1d. Place it.

As a result, as shown in Fig. 2, the electric heater 3 is exposed downward and can be used as a kotatsu. Make it easy to get your feet in and out.

In addition, the top plate 4 and the kotatsu futon 7 are secured by the anti-slip piece 4b.
This also prevents misalignment.

Fig. 5 shows an embodiment of the pond, in which the holding frame 2 is not turned over by a rotary method, but rather the holding frame 2 is taken out from the storage space 1d, turned over at the groove part, and then re-inverted into the storage space 1d. It was designed to be stored in.

That is, both side pillars of the holding frame 2 equipped with the electric heater 3 on one side are made to protrude back and forth, and the tips thereof serve as retaining parts 2d, 2d, and the retaining parts 2d fit into the inner surface of the curtain plate 1a. Fitting groove 1
The holding frame 2 is removably held by fitting and locking the holding portion 2d into the fitting groove 1g.

As described above, according to the present invention, in the winter, the electric heater holding frame 2 can be used as a kotatsu by installing the electric heater 3 facing downward, and in the summer, the electric heater holding frame 2 can be used as a kotatsu. 2 can be used as a low table by inverting the kotatsu so that the electric heater 3 is facing upward, and there is no need to replace the kotatsu and low table in winter or summer, unlike in the past. 3 is stored in the storage space 1d, that is, inside the main body 1, and is not visible due to the covering plate 2C, so it is normal to see both the appearance when it is in use and the appearance when it is placed against a wall etc. when not in use. It has the appearance of a low table, so at first glance you might not know it is a kotatsu, but it has a good appearance and is a practical kotatsu.
