Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a bay window device having a window function as well as a storage function for a single tableware or the like.

In general, this type of bay window device is simply a space that protrudes to the outdoors, and has almost no function of storing things; the protruding space is only used to place objects such as flower pots. It's just there. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, a rack 2 is installed inside the bay window frame 1.
A device equipped with this has been proposed. The rack 2 is suspended from a known rail (not shown) installed on the ceiling of the bay window, and is movable left and right within the bay window frame 1. In other words, the user can freely move between a space 4 facing the window 3 of the building and a space 5 located to the side thereof and covered by a wall on the indoor side. According to this configuration, items can be placed in each column 2a, 2b, . Also, if the rack 2 is stored in the space 5,
Each column 2a.

Items placed in 2b... are not exposed to the outside, so they are not unsightly, and the window 3 installed in the bay window frame 1
It also does not obstruct sunlight from entering the building.

However, this bay window device has the drawback that items that are not used often are pulled out during regular use.

In other words, the items stored in the rack 2 include items that are rarely used and items that are always used, but with this bay window device, items that are not often used can also be pulled out at all times, so that The movement of 2 requires wasted effort and is extremely irrational.

The present invention has been made with the above-mentioned problems in mind, and an object of the present invention is to provide a bay window device that not only has the function of storing items but also allows racks to be drawn out in a rational manner. In the space of the bay window, two rows of width racks smaller than the width of the bay window are provided in front and back rows, and the racks in the front row are fixed at one side of the bay window space, and the racks in the rear row are fixed in the bay window space. The racks are movable left and right, and a door is provided in front of the rack in the front row so that it can be opened and closed.

According to this configuration, since the racks in the front row are usually covered by a door, there is no discomfort in the bay window, and by opening this door, items can be taken in and out of the racks in the front row.
The back-row utensils can be moved to take in and take out items, and have the effect of being able to be moved easily.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.

In the figure, 6 is a sink, and 7 is a bay window corresponding to the sink. A window 8 is provided in about half of the indoor side of the bay window section 7 in the horizontal direction, and the other half is covered with a shielding material 9 such as a wall or board.
is shielded by @ In the space on the side of the shielding member 9 of the bay window section 7, two rows of racks 10° and 11 in the front and rear, each having a width approximately half the width of the bay window section 7, are arranged.
is suspended on a rail 12 provided on the ceiling of the bay window 7 and is configured to be able to be pulled out in the space 1 corresponding to the window 8 of the bay window 7, and furthermore, the main part 11a is guided by the suspension rail 13. (See Figure 5). 1, the rear rack 11 has a side plate 14 on the window side end that can cover the side of the front rack 10, and a handle 15 is provided on a part of the side plate 14. The front row rack 10 is fixed in front of the shielding member 9. A door 16 that can be opened forward is provided in front of the front rack 1o. In the figure, 17 is a handle of the group 16, and 18 is a wall. Note that the group 16 may be opened and closed like a sliding door.

In the bay window device having the above configuration, for example, infrequently used items are stored in the front row rack 1o, and frequently used items are stored in the rear row rack 11, and normally, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, The racks 1o and 11i of each column are moved to positions corresponding to the shielding members 9 of the bay window portions 7. In this state, ranks 10 and 11 are located behind the door 16 so that their stored items are not exposed, and the windows 8 allow sunlight to enter. Therefore, the bay window 7 does not look unsightly, and the sink 6 can be operated without any trouble. Next, when frequently used items are to be taken out or put in, the rack 11 in the rear row is moved to a position corresponding to the window 8 and is pulled out to the front. This rack 11 is lighter than those shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, and is convenient because it can be moved with less force. In addition, the door 16 is opened to take articles in and out of the rack 1o in the front row. In this case, since the rack 11 is on the front side, it is easy to reach, so there is no problem even if it is fixed.

Although the present embodiment has been described with reference to a kitchen, similar handling is possible in a study if rank 10.11 is used as a bookshelf.

In this way, the bay window device of the present invention allows the rack to be pulled out easily, and when the rack is stored, it is covered by the door, so the existence of the rack does not feel strange at all, and it can be made into a neat shape. By moving the two racks, it is possible to effectively utilize the space in the bay window to easily take out and store items stored in the racks, and the racks can be easily moved, which is convenient in practice.
