【発明の詳細な説明】産業上の利用分野本発明は食器ケース、その他調度品ケースなど物品を収
納する家具に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to furniture for storing articles such as tableware cases and other furniture cases.

従来例の構成とその問題点一般に前述のような家具においてはガラス扉が設けられ
、内部を透視できることから便利である。Conventional Structures and Problems Generally, the above-mentioned furniture is provided with a glass door, which is convenient because it allows the interior to be seen through.

しかしながら、近来、厨房室も居室兼用になってきてお
り、インテリア性を考えると、収納物が外部より透視で
きることは美観をそこなう。However, in recent years, the kitchen has also been used as a living room, and when considering the interior design, being able to see through the stored items from the outside spoils the aesthetics.

発明の目的本発明は前記従来の問題に留意し、通常は内部が透視で
きなく、必要に応じ内部が透視できて使い勝手のよい家
具を提供しようとするものである。OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and an object thereof is to provide a piece of furniture that is user-friendly and whose interior cannot normally be seen through, but whose interior can be seen through if necessary.

の変化をさせ、その使い勝手をよくするものである。Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention has a structure in which a liquid crystal member is attached to the door in a planar manner, and a means for voltage control is provided. It allows for two types of changes and improves its usability.

実施例の説明以下本発明の一実施例を図面にもとつき説明する。Description of examples An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

が設けられている。In the figure, 1 is a furniture body, which has a door 2, and a shelf 3 provided inside to store tableware 4. The door 2 has two crow plates 6.6 and this crow plate 5.6.
In between, a liquid crystal member 7 made of ethyl benzoate, ammonium oleate, etc., and transparent electrode bodies 8 disposed on both sides of the liquid crystal 7 are provided. Furthermore, the transparent electrode body 8 is located at the bottom of the furniture body 1.
A control device 9 is provided for applying voltage to the main body 1, and a switch 10 of the control device 9 is provided at the front of the furniture body 1.
is provided.

の使い勝手がよい。The +1 component furniture is usually made opaque by applying a voltage to the transparent electrode body 8 as shown in FIG. Keep it out of sight. Next, when you want to check the stored items, you can turn off the switch 10 and stop applying voltage to the transparent electrode body 8 as shown in FIG.
Since the element body is made isodirectional and transparent, the contents inside can be seen without opening the door 2. Therefore, by making the door opaque, it is possible to harmonize with the interior of the room, and when necessary, the interior can be seen through without opening the door, making it easy to use.

のｉは家黒本体に組み込むものとする。In the above embodiment, the door is made of glass, but it may be made of transparent synthetic resin. You can also make the door opaque,
Although it is designed to be transparent, it may be configured to partially display time and other information using a liquid crystal member and an electrode body to expand its functions. Of course, in this case, i shall be incorporated into the main body of the house.

シ、その効果は大きい。Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the embodiments described above, the present invention allows the door of furniture to be controlled to be transparent or opaque using a liquid crystal member, making the internal storage items invisible and improving the visibility, while also allowing for transparent viewing when necessary. This makes it easier to use, and its effects are great.
