[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2018-068971 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] However, the above-mentioned wagon apparatus is often placed in a limited space, such as the space under the top of a tabletop-equipped fixture or a concentration booth surrounded by panels. Therefore, in order to ensure ample space for the lower legs of workers, it is necessary to avoid the wagon apparatus occupying a large part of the limited space. Therefore, there is a demand for a wagon apparatus that can ensure storage capacity while suppressing the reduction of installation space by effectively utilizing the limited space.
[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to ensure storage capacity while preventing a reduction in usable space by effectively utilizing limited space in a wagon device. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] The present invention employs the following configuration as a means for solving the above problems.
[0007] The first invention adopts a configuration comprising a movable support part, a base part movably supported by the movable support part, and a placement part supported by the base and having a placement surface on which an item can be placed, the base part having two support side surfaces capable of being supported by other fixtures, the two support side surfaces being closer together going from the front to the rear.
[0008] According to the first invention, the two support sides that can be supported by other fixtures are closer to each other as they move toward the rear, so that the base is shaped to taper from the front to the rear. Therefore, the wagon device can be installed by fitting the rear of the base to a narrow place such as a corner space of the installation space. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to effectively use a narrow space that is difficult to use in the installation space, and by effectively using the limited space, it is possible to suppress the reduction of the usable space. Furthermore, according to the present invention, articles can be placed on the placement section supported by the base, and the storage capacity can be secured. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to effectively use the limited space in the wagon device to suppress the reduction of the usable space and secure the storage capacity.
[0009] The second invention, in the first invention, adopts a configuration including an upright portion erected on the base, and an upper article placing portion supported by the upright portion and positioned above the base.
[0010] According to the second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the mounting portion, an upper article mounting portion on which articles can be mounted is provided, which makes it possible to increase the storage capacity while preventing the overall size of the wagon apparatus from increasing in plan view.
[0011] The third invention is based on the second invention and adopts a configuration in which the upper item loading section has two upper support sides that can be supported by other fixtures, and the two upper support sides are closer to each other as they move from the front to the rear.
[0012] According to the third aspect of the present invention, the upper article mounting section also has a shape that narrows from the front to the rear, similar to the base section, so that the upper article mounting section can be inserted into narrow places such as corners of the installation space, making it possible to secure a larger article mounting space.
[0013] The fourth invention, in the second or third invention, adopts a configuration in which a power outlet portion is exposed on the upper surface of the upper item mounting portion and positioned toward the rear of the upper item mounting portion rather than the center in the front-to-rear direction.
[0014] According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the outlet is disposed at the rear of the upper article placement section. This allows the narrow area of the upper article placement section to be efficiently used as a place to insert a plug. Furthermore, according to the present invention, the outlet is provided, making it possible to supply power to electronic devices.
[0015] The fifth invention, in any one of the second to fourth inventions, adopts a configuration in which a side opening exposing the loading surface is provided between a side edge portion extending from the front to the rear of the base and the upper article loading portion.
[0016] According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, the side opening allows an article to be inserted into or removed from the loading surface of the loading section from the side of the wagon device, making it possible to insert or remove an article into or from the loading surface of the loading section from various directions, not just from the front.
[0017] The sixth invention is a furniture unit comprising a furniture unit with a tabletop having a tabletop and legs supporting the tabletop, and a wagon device according to any one of the first to fifth inventions arranged below the tabletop.
[0018] According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, the cart device of the present invention is provided, which makes it possible to effectively utilize the limited space under the tabletop, while preventing a reduction in the usable space and ensuring storage capacity. Effect of the Invention
[0019] In the present invention, the base that supports the placement portion has two support sides that can be supported by other fixtures, and the two support sides are closer to each other from the front to the rear. This allows the rear side of the base to enter a narrow space. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to ensure the storage capacity of the wagon device while suppressing the reduction of usable space by effectively utilizing the limited space.

[0021] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of a wagon apparatus and a furniture unit according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0022] (First embodiment) The wagon device 1 of this embodiment is a fixture for placing items, which is installed under the top of a fixture with a top, and can hold, for example, the luggage of a user of the fixture with a top. Fig. 1 is an overall view showing a schematic configuration of the wagon device 1 of this embodiment, (a) is a front view, (b) is a plan view, and (c) is an AA cross-sectional view of (a).
[0023] In the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment, the wide side shown in Fig. 1(b) is referred to as the front side, and the narrow side in Fig. 1(b) is referred to as the rear side. In other words, the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment becomes narrower continuously from the front side to the rear side. In addition, the direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction in Fig. 1(b) is referred to as the width direction.
[0024] As shown in FIG. 1, the wagon device 1 of this embodiment comprises a main body panel 2, a lower plate 3, a lower decorative panel 4, casters 5 (movement support parts), an upper plate 6, an upper decorative panel 7, a mounting base 8, a power supply part 9, a seat member 10, and a holding belt 11.
[0025] The main body panel 2 is a skeletal member of the wagon device 1, and is formed, for example, by sheet metal processing a single metal plate. The main body panel 2 has a lower portion 2a, an upper portion 2b, and an erected portion 2c located between the lower portion 2a and the upper portion 2b.
[0026] 1(b), the main body panel 2 is curved so that the back surface 2d (surface at the rear side) forms a curved portion 2e. The shape of such a main body panel 2 in a plan view is a narrowed shape in which the width dimension continuously decreases from the front side to the rear side, and as a result, the shape has a corner at the rear side.
[0027] Of the lower portion 2a, upper portion 2b, and standing portion 2c of the main body panel 2, the portions that form the back surface 2d of the main body panel 2 have a shape that follows the back surface 2d in a plan view. The lower portion 2a (base), upper portion 2b, and standing portion 2c are all provided at positions that include a curved portion 2e provided on the back surface 2d of the main body panel 2. Therefore, the lower portion 2a, upper portion 2b, and standing portion 2c of the main body panel 2 all have portions that curve along the curved portion 2e.
[0028] The lower part 2a of the main body panel 2 has a back part 2a1 including the part where the curved part 2e is provided, and arm parts 2a2 provided at both ends in the width direction of the back part 2a1. These arm parts 2a2 extend from the edge of the back part 2a1 so that their tips are close to each other, and are curved to surround the lower plate 3. A certain gap is provided between the tips of these arm parts 2a2 in the width direction. This gap between the tips of the arm parts 2a2 is used as a space for installing the lower plate 3.
[0029] The upper part 2b of the main body panel 2 has a back part 2b1 including the part where the curved part 2e is provided, and arm parts 2b2 provided at both ends in the width direction of the back part 2b1. These arm parts 2b2 extend from the edge of the back part 2b1 so that their tips are close to each other, and are curved to surround the upper plate 6. A certain gap is provided between the tips of these arm parts 2b2 in the width direction. The gap between the tips of the arm parts 2b2 is used as a space for installing the upper plate 6.
[0030] The standing portion 2c is a portion that connects the lower portion 2a and the upper portion 2b of the main body panel 2, and is standing along the rear edge of the lower portion 2a. Since the standing portion 2c is not provided on the front edge of the lower portion 2a but is provided only on the rear edge, a front opening 2c1 is formed in the front of the main body panel 2, through which an article can be put in and taken out from above the lower portion 2a. Also, as shown in FIG. 1(c), the standing portion 2c has a smaller dimension in the front-rear direction than the upper portion 2b and the lower portion 2a. Therefore, a side opening 2c2 is formed in the main body panel 2, through which an article can be put in and taken out from above the lower portion 2a of the main body panel 2 from the side.
[0031] The main body panel 2 is provided with a circular opening 2f and a slit 2g penetrating in the front-rear direction at a position between the lower plate 3 and the upper plate 6. The circular opening 2f and the slit 2g are through holes through which the holding belt 11 is inserted. Furthermore, the holding belt 11 and a power supply cord 9b of the power supply unit 9, which will be described later, are inserted through the circular opening 2f.
[0032] The lower plate 3 is a plate-like portion fixed to the lower portion 2a of the main panel 2.

[0041] The bottom plate portion 6a is provided with a plurality of through holes 6d. These through holes 6d are used, for example, to insert a tool from below the bottom plate portion 6a to lift up the sheet member 10 when removing the sheet member 10 laid on the bottom plate portion 6a.
[0042] The bottom plate portion 6a is provided with two outlet openings 6e for exposing an outlet portion 9a (described later) of the power supply portion 9. As shown in Fig. 3, these outlet openings 6e are disposed on the back side of the center of the bottom plate portion 6a in the front-rear direction.
[0043] The joint portion 6b is a plate-like portion that hangs down from the rear edge of the bottom plate portion 6a. This joint portion 6b is a portion that is joined in a state of being in contact with the back portion 2b1 of the upper portion 2b of the main body panel 2. This joint portion 6b is joined to the main body panel 2 by, for example, spot welding.
[0044] The decorative plate attachment portion 6c is a plate-like portion that hangs down from the front edge of the bottom plate portion 6a. When viewed from the front side, this decorative plate attachment portion 6c is disposed in the gap between the tip of one arm portion 2b2 of the upper portion 2b and the tip of the other arm portion 2b2. The upper decorative plate 7 is joined to this decorative plate attachment portion 6c, and holds the upper decorative plate 7 in the gap between the tip of the arm portion 2b2 and the tip of the other arm portion 2b2.
[0045] The upper decorative plate 7 is joined to the decorative plate attachment portion 6c, and is arranged so as to fill the gap between the tip of one arm portion 2b2 and the tip of the other arm portion 2b2 of the upper portion 2b of the main body panel 2. The height dimension of this upper decorative plate 7 is the same as the height dimension of the arm portion 2b2. In addition, the upper decorative plate 7 and the arm portion 2b2 are arranged so as to minimize the gap or to abut against each other. In this way, the height dimension of the upper decorative plate 7 is the same as the height dimension of the arm portion 2b2, and the upper decorative plate 7 and the arm portion 2b2 are arranged so as to minimize the gap or to abut against each other, thereby enhancing the sense of unity between the upper decorative plate 7 and the arm portion 2b2.
[0046] Returning to Fig. 1, the mounting base 8 is fixed to the underside of the upper plate 6 (the underside of the bottom plate portion 6a shown in Fig. 3). This mounting base 8 is a base portion to which the outlet portion 9a of the power supply unit 9 is fixed from below, and is disposed below the outlet opening 6e.

[0050] The wagon device 1 of this embodiment has a lower placement section 20 including the lower part 2a and the lower plate 3 of the main body panel 2, and an upper placement section 30 (upper article placement section) including the upper part 2b and the upper plate 6 of the main body panel 2. FIG. 4 is a plan view showing a schematic configuration of the lower placement section 20. As shown in this figure, the lower placement section 20 has two outer wall surfaces 21 (support side surfaces) that approach each other from the front side to the rear side. These outer wall surfaces 21 are formed by the outer wall surfaces of the main body panel 2, and are surfaces that can be supported by other fixtures, etc. The lower placement section 20 has a corner portion 32 formed by connecting these two outer wall surfaces 21. In other words, the lower placement section 20 has a shape that narrows from the front side to the rear side, and has a shape in which the corner portion 32 is provided on the back side. In addition, the lower placement section 20 has a placement surface 23 on which articles can be placed from above. In this embodiment, the mounting surface 23 is formed by the upper surface of the sheet member 10. That is, the sheet member 10 is used as a mounting portion having the mounting surface 23. Note that the sheet member 10 does not necessarily have to be provided. In this case, the surface of the lower plate 3 becomes the mounting surface 23, and the lower plate 3 becomes the mounting portion.
[0051] FIG. 5 is a plan view showing a schematic configuration of the upper placement portion 30. As shown in this figure, the upper placement portion 30 has two outer wall surfaces 31 (upper support side surfaces) that approach each other from the front side to the rear side. These outer wall surfaces 21 are formed by the outer wall surfaces of the main body panel 2, and are surfaces that can be supported by other fixtures and the like. The upper placement portion 30 has a corner portion 32 formed by connecting these two outer wall surfaces 31. In other words, the upper placement portion 30 has a shape that narrows from the front to the back side, and has a shape in which the corner portion 32 is provided on the back side. In addition, the upper placement portion 30 is provided with a placement surface 33 on which an article can be placed from above. In this embodiment, this placement surface 33 is formed by the upper surface of the sheet member 10. It is not necessary to provide the sheet member 10. In this case, the surface of the upper plate 6 becomes the placement surface 23.
[0052] The wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment is disposed, for example, below the top plate of a desk, and a worker working at the desk places his / her luggage on the lower loading section 20 or the upper loading section 30. For example, the worker places a relatively large luggage such as a bag on the lower loading section 20, and a relatively small luggage such as a mobile terminal on the upper loading section 30.
[0053] The wagon device 1 of this embodiment as described above comprises casters 5, a lower portion 2a of a main body panel 2 supported by the casters 5 so as to be movably supported, and a sheet member 10 supported by the lower portion 2a of the main body panel 2 and having a mounting surface 23 on which items can be placed, and the lower portion 2a of the main body panel 2 has two outer wall surfaces 21 capable of being supported by other fixtures, the two outer wall surfaces 21 being closer to each other as they move from the front to the rear.
[0054] According to the wagon device 1 of this embodiment, the two outer wall surfaces 21 that can be supported by other fixtures approach each other toward the rear, so that the lower part 2a of the main body panel 2 is shaped to narrow from the front to the rear. Therefore, the wagon device 1 can be installed by fitting the rear part of the lower part 2a of the main body panel 2 to a narrow place such as a corner space of the installation space. Therefore, according to the wagon device 1 of this embodiment, it is possible to effectively use a narrow space (dead space) that is difficult to use in the installation space, and by effectively using the limited space, it is possible to suppress the decrease in the usable space. Furthermore, according to the wagon device 1 of this embodiment, articles can be placed on the sheet member 10 supported by the lower part 2a of the main body panel 2, and the storage capacity can be secured. Therefore, according to the wagon device 1 of this embodiment, it is possible to effectively use the limited space and suppress the decrease in the usable space while securing the storage capacity.
[0055] Moreover, the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment includes an erected portion 2c erected on the lower portion 2a of the main body panel 2, and an upper placement portion 30 supported by the erected portion 2c and disposed above the lower portion 2a of the main body panel 2. This makes it possible to further increase the storage capacity while preventing the overall size of the wagon apparatus 1 from increasing in plan view.
[0056] In the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment, the upper loading section 30 has two outer wall surfaces 31 that can be supported by other fixtures, and the two outer wall surfaces 31 are closer to each other from the front to the rear. According to the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment, the upper loading section 30 also has a shape that narrows from the front to the rear, similar to the lower loading section 20. Therefore, the upper loading section 30 can also enter narrow places such as corner spaces in the installation space, making it possible to secure a larger article loading space.
[0057] The wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment is also provided with a power outlet 9a that is exposed on the top surface of the upper mounting portion 30 and is located toward the rear of the upper mounting portion 30 from the center in the front-rear direction. This allows the narrow area of the upper mounting portion 30 to be efficiently used as a place to insert a plug. The wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment is also provided with the power outlet 9a, making it possible to supply power to electronic devices.
[0058] Moreover, the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment has a side opening 2c2 exposing the placement surface 23 between a side edge extending from the front to the rear of the lower portion 2a of the main body panel 2 and the upper placement portion 30. According to the wagon apparatus 1 of this embodiment, an article can be inserted into and removed from the placement surface 23 of the sheet member 10 from the side of the wagon apparatus 1 through the side opening 2c2. Therefore, it becomes possible to insert and remove an article into and from the placement surface 23 of the sheet member 10 from various directions, not just from the front.
[0059] Second embodiment Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the description of the second embodiment, the description of the same parts as those in the first embodiment will be omitted or simplified.
