Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for holding shelf boards in, for example, bookshelves, food shelves, and other furniture in an immovable state so that they do not fall off inadvertently.

In the case of the above-mentioned furniture, a number of holes for shelf holders are provided in the side plate of the cabinet or in the shelf pillars, and by selectively attaching shelf holders to the holes, the shelf holders can be used to receive the shelves. Shelves that can be adjusted to a desired position (height) are increasingly being used.

Furthermore, when receiving the shelf board on the shelf holder hooked in the hole as mentioned above, there are two types: one for simply placing the shelf board, and another for holding the shelf board down at the same time as placing it on the shelf holder. It is known what has been done.

Compared to the former, the latter is superior in that it can prevent the shelf from lifting or moving, so various shelf holding devices are already being used. Those illustrated in A and B are known.

In the one shown in Fig. 1, a shelf support a has a shaft part b and a shelf holding part c arranged perpendicularly to the shaft part b. Insert the shaft part b of the
The shelf board f is held in between to hold it down.

On the other hand, the one shown in Fig. 2 A and B is
and a shelf holder h formed as a separate member.When supporting the shelf f using this, the shelf support g and shelf holder h are inserted into the holes e and e' drilled in the side plate d of the cabinet, etc.
is installed by inserting its shaft parts g' and h', and after placing the shelf f on the shelf support g, rotate the shelf presser h and use its elasticity to prevent the shelf f from elastically. It is configured to do so.

However, in the former case, since the length of the shelf presser c is constant, it cannot respond to changes in the thickness of the shelf.
Therefore, it is not only necessary to prepare a variety of shelves with different dimensions depending on the thickness of the shelf, but also a large gap j is created between the side panel i of the cabinet and the shelf f, and the shelf retainer c is It protrudes above the shelf f, which is unsightly, and also has the disadvantage of narrowing the space above the shelf.

In addition, in the latter case, it is not only necessary to provide holes e and e' for the shelf support and the shelf presser in the side plate d, but also has the drawback that the shelf plate presser h cannot correspond to the thickness of the shelf plate f. If an object placed on the shelf f hits the shelf f, it will rotate, resulting in a loss of the shelf holding function.

In addition, examples other than those mentioned above have been known in the past, but
All of them have their advantages and disadvantages, and they are not satisfactory.

Therefore, the present invention was developed as a result of studies in view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the conventional device.The purpose of this device is to make it possible to slide the shelf holder into the vertically installed groove in the shelf holder. By inserting the insert and tightening and fixing it with an eccentric cam supported on the shelf support, the shelf board can be held in place.This structure allows for adaptation to changes in the thickness of the shelf board, and allows for the creation of slits in the shelf board. There is no need for holes or drilling, and it can be used commonly for shelf boards made of various materials.
Moreover, since a thin plate can be used to hold down the shelf, the gap between the shelf and the side plate of the cabinet or the shelf pillar is small, and there are no protrusions on the top of the shelf, so it has an excellent appearance. The reason is that it can be used to the maximum extent for placing objects.
