Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a guide structure for a furniture drawer, and more specifically, the size of the gap between the furniture body and the side of the drawer can be adjusted to prevent rattling of the drawer and to ensure smooth movement of the drawer. This invention relates to a guide structure for a drawer that allows sliding.

Conventionally, a drawer is known in which a drawer storage space with an open front is formed in the furniture body, and the side of the drawer is engaged and guided by a guide rail placed on the side of the space so that the drawer can slide freely. Due to the error of In contrast, there was a risk that the drawer would not slide smoothly or that the drawer would wobble.

In other words, if the gap is too small, the guide rail will come into contact with the side surface of the drawer, creating frictional resistance, which may make it difficult to slide the drawer smoothly.If the gap is too large, the drawer may If the drawer rattles from side to side within the storage space, problems may occur such as the mirror panel in front of the drawer colliding with the door adjacent to it, or the opening of the storage space partially being exposed on the side of the mirror panel. There was a risk.

This idea was made to prevent inconvenience caused by the size of the gap between the furniture body and the drawer, which is caused by manufacturing errors or material distortions, and the size of the gap can be adjusted arbitrarily. It is characterized by

Preferred embodiments of this invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a front view of a sink to which this invention is applied, and the uppermost drawer is shown with the top plate fixed to the front thereof removed.

Referring to Figure 1, sink cabinet (furniture body)
Drawers 2 are arranged in four stages on the right side of 1.

The drawer 2 includes a rectangular box-shaped drawer body 4 with an open upper surface that is stored in a storage space 3 formed in a furniture body 1 so as to be freely accessible, and a mirror plate is fixed to the front surface of the drawer body 4.

Guide rails 5 are disposed on both sides of the drawer storage space 3, and a guide groove 6 having a cross-section of 100 mm is formed on the outer circular side of the drawer body 4 to receive the guide rails 5.

The guide groove 6 is defined by a horizontal plate 7 that projects in parallel from the outer surface of the drawer main body 4 with an interval above and below, and a side surface of the drawer main body 4.

As shown in FIG. 3, the guide rail 5 is made of a rod-shaped member with a square cross section, and is fixed to the furniture body 1 by suitable fixing means such as screws or nails, or by adhesive.

An adjustment hole 8 which is blind and opens toward the side surface of the drawer body 4 is formed at the tip of the guide rail 5, and a bag-shaped adjustment nut 9 is fitted and fixed into the adjustment hole 8.

Then, the adjustment bolt 10 is screwed into the adjustment nut 9 so as to be freely retractable.

The head of the adjustment bolt 10 faces the outer surface of the drawer 4, and by moving the bolt 10 back and forth, the size of the gap between the head of the bolt 10 and the outer surface of the drawer 4 can be adjusted.

Adjusting the gap between the adjustment bolt 10 and the drawer 4 essentially means adjusting the gap between the furniture body 1 and the drawer 4,
This will eliminate the inconveniences of the conventional drawers mentioned above.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the guide rail 5 is fixed to the furniture body 1 by inserting a fixing screw 11 into the adjustment nut 9.

However, it may not be necessary to use the adjusting nut 9 for fixing the guide rail 5.

It is sufficient to form one gap adjustment structure consisting of the adjustment nut 9 and adjustment bolt 10 at least at the tip of the guide rail 5 and on one side of the drawer, but it is also possible to form one on both sides of the drawer. By configuring a plurality of guide rails 5 at appropriate locations, a more accurate gap adjustment effect can be expected.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a protrusion provided in the guide groove 6 of the drawer main body 4, which is intended to prevent damage to the side wall of the drawer due to contact with the adjustment bolt 10 and to reduce frictional resistance at the time of contact. be.

5 and 6 show one modification of the guide rail and gap adjustment structure, in which the guide rail 50 is made of a cross-sectional shape, and the adjustment nut 51 is integrally formed on the inner surface of the vertical wall of the rail 50. It is a formed structure.

Other points are substantially the same as those shown in FIGS. 2 to 4.

As described above, according to the guide structure of the furniture drawer of this invention, the gap between the furniture body and the drawer can be substantially adjusted by the extremely simple operation of simply screwing the adjustment bolt 10 forward and backward, and the gap can be prevented from becoming too large. , it is possible to completely eliminate the conventional disadvantages caused by undersizing, and since it has a simple structure of simply attaching a bag-shaped adjustment nut to the guide rail, it does not actually cause any damage to ready-made furniture. It has an effect that can be applied without any problems.
