Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to the improvement of a Buddhist altar, and particularly to a Buddhist altar in which the area of the upper shelf can be varied.

■ Prior Art The optimal size of the upper shelf of a Buddhist altar is determined by the size and number of memorial tablets, etc. to be enshrined.

The size and number of memorial tablets placed on the upper shelf vary considerably depending on the sect and the user of the Buddhist altar.

Therefore, manufacturers of Buddhist altars have to manufacture many types of Buddhist altars to suit each sect, resulting in high-mix, low-volume production, which increases manufacturing costs and requires time and effort for inventory management.

In addition, purchasers of Buddhist altars also had the disadvantage that, for example, if the size of the upper shelf remained the same when the number of memorial tablets changed, the upper shelf would become narrower.

■Purpose This design is designed so that a part of the upper shelf can be freely pulled out, and by changing the area of this pull-out shelf board, the upper shelf can be made wider or narrower. The purpose is for the purchaser to conveniently adjust the area of the upper shelf to the optimal size according to the number and size of the memorial tablets, etc. to be enshrined. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a Buddhist altar that can be sold in large quantities, can be produced in small quantities in large quantities, can improve productivity, can reduce manufacturing costs, and can reduce distribution, inventory, and expenses.

■Configuration Hereinafter, embodiments of this invention will be described based on the drawings.

In the Buddhist altar shown in FIG. 1, both sides of an upper shelf 1 can be pulled out forward and backward, and a folded lattice 3 is connected to the rear end of the shelf board 2 which can be pulled out as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the shelf board 2 has protrusions 4 protruding from both sides, and sliding grooves 5 in which the protrusions 4 slide are provided on both sides of the shelf board 2. .

The sliding grooves 5 on both sides of the shelf are horizontally carved in the side edges of the fixed shelf 6, which is the fixed central upper shelf, and on the side plate 7 of the Buddhist altar body, extending back and forth.

The shelf board 2 and the fixed shelf 6 are formed in a shape in which the front width and the rear width are the same, that is, in a shape in which both side edges are parallel to each other so that the shelf board 2 can be freely pulled out forward and backward.

As shown in FIG. 2, the folding lattice 3 is made up of square rods 8, which are lattice materials whose total length is equal to the width of the shelf board, connected in a bendable manner. The sheet members 9 are arranged in parallel to each other and extend in a direction perpendicular to the direction, and a sheet material 9, which is a bent material, is adhered to the lower surface.

When the shelf board 2 is made of wood, the folded lattice 3 is also preferably made of wood.

A guide stand 10 is disposed horizontally under the shelf board 2, and when the shelf board 2 is pulled out, the folded lattice 3 is placed on this to form a horizontal upper shelf.

When installing the guide stand 10 under the shelf board 2, the folded lattice 3
is placed on this and held horizontally, so there is no need to provide protrusions that move within the sliding grooves 5 on both sides of the folded lattice 3.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the bent lattice 3 is provided with protrusions 11 on both sides, the protrusions 11 of the folded lattice 3 are pulled into the sliding groove 5 when the shelf board 2 is pulled out. Therefore, the bent lattice 3 is supported horizontally via the projections 11 and the sliding grooves 5.

Therefore, in this case, the guide stand 10 under the shelf board 2 is not necessarily required.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the shelf board 2 is pulled out to the position indicated by the two-dot chain line, the folded lattice 3 connected thereto is also pulled out, increasing the shelf area of the upper shelf.

When the shelf board 2 is pushed to the solid line position, the folded lattice 3 is folded and the upper shelf 1 becomes narrower, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5.

■Effects As mentioned above, in the Buddhist altar of this invention, a part of the upper shelf can be freely pulled out, and a folding lattice is connected to the rear end of this shelf that can be pulled out. The materials are arranged in parallel and extended in a direction perpendicular to the pull-out direction, and are bendably connected via bending materials, so by pulling out the shelf board, the upper shelf can be made wider or the shelf board can be expanded. The upper shelf can be narrowed by pushing it in, and the area of the upper shelf can be adjusted freely.

For this reason, buyers of Buddhist altars can conveniently change the width of the upper shelf to suit the number and size of memorial tablets placed on the upper shelf. There is no need to manufacture a wide variety of Buddhist altars, and a single Buddhist altar can be provided at low cost to buyers of each sect.

That is, it is possible to realize high-volume production of a small number of products, which is extremely effective in reducing costs in manufacturing and distribution processes.

Furthermore, since the folding lattice connected to the rear end of the shelf board that can be freely pulled out is bendable, a large space is not required behind the shelf board, and the shelf board can be stored in a narrow space.

Therefore, since the shelf board can be freely pulled out, the space that cannot be used as an upper shelf can be greatly reduced, and even when the upper shelf is adjusted to be narrow, the upper shelf can be effectively used to the back.
