Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a bay window device having a window function as well as a storage function for tableware, books, etc.

In general, this type of bay window device is simply a space that protrudes to the outdoors, and has almost no function of storing things; the protruding space is only used to place objects such as flower pots. It's just that. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a structure in which a rack 2 is installed within a bay window frame 1 has been proposed. The rack 2 is suspended from a known rail (not shown) installed on the ceiling of the bay window, and is movable left and right within the bay window frame 1. In other words, the user can freely move between a space 4 facing the window 3 of the building and a space 5 located to the side thereof and covered by a wall on the indoor side. According to this configuration, each shelf 2a, 2 of the rack 2
Since things can be placed in the bay window frame 1, the inside of the bay window frame 1 can be utilized as a storage space for things. Also,
If the rack 2 is stored in the space 5, each shelf 2a,
Since the objects placed in 2b are not exposed to the outside, they are not unsightly, and the light coming in from the window 3 provided in the bay window frame 1 is not obstructed.

However, this bay window device has the drawback that items that are not used often are pulled out during regular use. In other words, the items stored in Rack 2 include:
There are items that are rarely used and items that are always used, but with this bay window device, items that are rarely used can also be pulled out all the time, making it easy to use.
It is extremely irrational as it requires unnecessary effort to move.

The present invention has been made with the above-mentioned problems in mind, and an object of the present invention is to provide a bay window device that not only has the function of storing things but also allows racks to be drawn out in a rational manner. One side of the bay window space is provided with two rows of racks, front and rear, each having a width smaller than the width of the bay window. The racks are made to be movable left and right in the bay window space, and a door that can be opened and closed is provided in front of the racks in the front row and at a position corresponding to the racks in the rear row.

According to this configuration, each rack is usually covered with a door, so there is no discomfort in the bay window, and by opening the door, articles can be taken in and out of the racks in the front row, and the racks in the back row can be placed in the racks in the front row. By moving the rack horizontally, it is exposed, making it easy to take items in and out.The front rack can be easily moved, and the space in the bay window on the side of the rear rack ensures a loading space regardless of whether the rack is moved. This has the effect that flower pots and the like can be placed here at all times.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.

In the figure, 6 is a sink, and 7 is a bay window corresponding to the sink. A window 8 is provided in about half of the bay window section 7 in the lateral direction on the outdoor side, and the other half is shielded by a shielding member 9 such as a wall or a board. In the space on the shielding member 9 side of the bay window 7, there are two rows of racks 10, front and rear, each having a width approximately half the width of the bay window 7.
11 are arranged, and the rack 10 in the front row is suspended from a rail 12 provided on the ceiling of the bay window section 7, and is configured to be able to move laterally to the space corresponding to the window 8 of the bay window section 7. There is. 14 is a side plate on the window side of the rack 10 in the front row, and 15 is a handle on a part of this side plate 14. The rear row racks 11 are fixed in front of the shielding member 9. and,
The main part 11a is guided by a suspension rail 13 and can be freely pulled out forward. A door 16 that can be opened forward is provided in front of the rack 10 in the front row. In the figure, 17 is a handle of the door 16, and 18 is a wall.

In the bay window device having the above configuration, for example, infrequently used items are stored in the racks 11 in the rear row, and frequently used items are stored in the front racks 10, and normally, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. The racks 10 and 11 of each row are moved to positions corresponding to the shielding members 9 of the bay window portion 7. In this state, the racks 10 and 11 are located behind the door 16 so that the stored items are not exposed, and the window 8 allows sunlight to enter. Therefore, the bay window 7 does not look unsightly, and the sink 6 can be operated without any trouble. Next, when loading and unloading items that are frequently used, the door 16 is opened to expose the racks 10 in the front row. When loading and unloading items that are used less frequently in the racks 11 in the rear row, the racks 10 in the front row are opened through the window. 8
In this state, the main part 11a of the rack 11 in the rear row is pulled out forward. This rack 11 is convenient because it is lighter than the conventional rack shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 and can be moved with less force.

In addition, although the kitchen was explained in this example,
In a study room, the racks 10 and 11 can be used in a similar manner as bookshelves.

In this way, the bay window device of the present invention allows the rack to be pulled out easily, and when the rack is stored, it is covered by the door, so the existence of the rack does not give any sense of discomfort, and the rack has a clean shape. In addition, by moving the rack, you can make effective use of the space in the bay window to easily take out and store items inside the rack, and it can be moved easily. It is possible to secure a storage space in the bay window space of the bay window regardless of whether or not the rack moves, and flowerpots etc. can be placed here at all times, making it easy to use and having the effect of enhancing the appearance of the bay window. be.
