Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Regarding how to dispose of the cables that come out.

(Prior art) The wiring of various signal cables and power cables extending externally from the side or back of pan controllers and electronic equipment-related measuring instruments used on conventional workbenches has to be done if the equipment is temporarily installed or not. It was common practice to either leave the cable in a fixed position for a long period of time or to permanently route the cable.

However, with such traditional methods.

If equipment cables are left unattended, it is not only unfavorable in appearance, but also can cause workers to get their hands or feet caught on the cables when passing near the workbench, cutting the cables, or injuring themselves. There was a risk of

In addition, if the equipment to be used is fixed for a long period of time, fixing the wiring of cables requires large-scale work. Even when the equipment is moved slightly, it is difficult to change or remove the fixed wiring. It was necessary to spend time.

(Object of the Invention) The present invention has been made in order to eliminate the defects in the above-mentioned conventional methods for handling cables attached to equipment on workbenches, and to facilitate easy operation of the cables of the equipment used. A workbench storage method that prevents accidents during work, improves the aesthetics of the work environment, and makes it extremely easy to relocate equipment. The purpose is to provide.

(Structure of the Invention) In order to achieve this object, in the present invention, a trough-like container such as a long recessed container is attached to a required peripheral portion of a side or back surface of a workbench, and a covalent portion of the cable is placed inside the container. Constructed so that it can store etc.

(Embodiments of the Invention) The present invention will be described in detail below based on illustrated embodiments.

FIG. 1(a) is a partial external structural diagram showing an embodiment of a workbench to which the present invention is applied.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a workbench, and a long recessed container 2 is attached to the rear edge of the workbench in the form of a gutter to serve as a storage section.

With this configuration, as shown in FIG. 1(b), the cables 4, 4.・
... can be stored along the cable storage section 2, so that the cables of the equipment do not hang down behind the workbench.

Further, wiring processing such as bundling of cables becomes unnecessary.

The shape of the cable storage section 2 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is a simple cable storage section suitable for cases where the back of the workbench is a wall, etc. For example, if a worker passes behind the workbench, the cross-section of the cable storage section may be round, as shown in Fig. 2(d), to avoid various deformations. It is possible to prevent a load from being applied to the cable due to contact with the cable, and at the same time to prevent a worker who comes into contact with the cable from getting caught in the cable storage section.

In addition, if you want to use the space behind the workbench effectively after storing the cables of one device, as shown in Figure 3 (al (b)), the entire cable storage section can be pulled out at the bottom of workbench 1. An effective method is to store the cable in place, and in this case, a cutout 5 is provided in a part of the workbench for the cable to pass through, as shown in the same figure (cl).

(a) (8 in BL is a rail for pulling out the cable storage section 7 like a drawer when storing the cables of equipment and storing it under the workbench after storage.

On the other hand, since the cables coming out from the backs of the two devices usually include power cables, the power outlet 9 is placed in an appropriate position inside the cable storage area as shown in Figure 4.
It would be even more convenient if there was a .

Furthermore, the gutter-shaped cable storage container used in the present invention may be modified as follows.

That is, FIGS. 5(a) and 5(b) are both perspective external views showing other embodiments of the cable storage portion.

(al is a partial lid 11.
11. . . . are attached to a part of the gutter-like container 10 in a hinged manner, and the lid 11.11.
The hook portions 12, 12 are constructed such that the other end thereof is fitted and fixed to the other side of the gutter-like container.

With this configuration, the cable running inside the trough-like container does not deviate from the cable, making it extremely stable.

In addition, the same figure (b) shows a plurality of notches 1 in the body of the gutter-like container 13.
4,14. . . . According to this, by entangling the cable in the notch, it is convenient to fix the cable or to lead the cable out to the outside.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention is constructed as described above,
Cables attached to electronic devices can be stored in the cable storage section of the workbench, which eliminates the need for fixed wiring.

It is extremely effective in preventing accidents, improving aesthetics, and providing flexibility in changing and removing wiring.
