Abstract

To provide a folding rack with a caster that can be accommodated compactly since a member forming the rack is a folding type.SOLUTION: Two front side plates, two back side plates, a right side plate, and a left side plate are provided on an upper surface of a bottom plate divided into three. A caster is provided in a bottom surface of the bottom plate. All side plates are movable by 0 degree to 90 degrees with respect to the bottom plate. The bottom plate can be bent in a U-shape so as to sandwich the caster. Provided is a folding rack with a caster configured as described above.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a folding rack with casters that can be stored compactly by making the components thereof foldable. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, racks such as magazine racks have been available (see Patent Document 1). Also, focusing on the folding function, there is a folding container (see Patent Document 2). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3239813 [Patent Document 2] JP 2022-69298 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] This caused the following problems: (i) In an office with a free address system, the desk was flimsy and had insufficient capacity to store several thick files needed for work, and it was difficult to move around. (b) Even when folded, it was not small enough to fit in a personal locker. The present invention has been made to solve these problems. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] Two front side panels, two rear side panels, a right side panel, and a left side panel are provided on the top surface of the bottom panel, which is divided into three parts. Casters are provided on the bottom surface of the base plate. All side panels can be moved from 0 to 90 degrees relative to the bottom panel. The bottom plate can be bent into a U-shape to sandwich the casters. This is a folding rack with casters characterized as above. Effect of the Invention

[0006] When all side panels are at an angle of 0 degrees to the bottom panel and the bottom panel is bent into a U-shape, this invention has its smallest volume, making it possible to store it in a small storage space such as an individual locker. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. (i) This invention is composed of a right bottom plate (1a), a middle bottom plate (1b), a left bottom plate (1c), a right front side plate (2a), a left front side plate (2b), a right rear side plate (3a), a left rear side plate (3b), a right side plate (4), a left side plate (5), casters (6), stoppers (7), a rotating shaft (8) and hinges (9). (b) The right bottom plate (1a), the middle bottom plate (1b), and the left bottom plate (1c) are arranged in parallel, and the right bottom plate (1a) and the left bottom plate (1c) are connected to either side of the middle bottom plate (1b) by hinges (9). (c) A total of four casters (6) are fixed to the bottom surfaces of the right bottom plate (1a) and the left bottom plate (1c), two on each side. (ii) The bottom plate bends in a U-shape so as to encase the caster. (e) When the bottom plate is bent into a U-shape, stagger the positions of the casters (6) so that they do not interfere with each other. (f) The middle base plate (1b) is provided with a stopper (7) to prevent bending, and the stopper (7) is attached to the center of the middle base plate (1b) by a rotating shaft (8). (g) The right front side panel (2a) is connected to the front edge of the top surface of the right bottom panel (1a) and the right rear side panel (3a) is connected to the back edge with hinges (9). (h) The left front side panel (2b) is connected to the front edge of the top surface of the left bottom panel (1c) and the left rear side panel (3b) is connected to the rear edge with hinges (9). (i) The right side of the right bottom plate (1a) has a raised portion (10a) to which the right side plate (4) is connected with a hinge (9). (Ju) The left edge of the left bottom plate (1c) has a raised portion (10b) to which the left side plate (5) is connected with a hinge (9). (k) The height of the raised portions (10a) and (10b) is equal to the thickness of the front side panel and the rear side panel stacked together. (o) All side panels can be moved from 0 to 90 degrees relative to the bottom panel. The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration. When the present invention is used as a rack, the bottom plates (1a), (1b), and (1c) bent in a U-shape are laid out flat, and the stoppers (7) are rotated 90 degrees to fix them in place so that they do not bend, and the rack is used with all side plates opened at an angle of 90 degrees to the bottom plate. When folding, the left and right rear side panels (3a) and (3b), the left and right front side panels (2a) and (2b), and the left and right side panels (4) and (5) are placed at an angle of 0 degrees relative to the bottom panel, and the stopper on the bottom is rotated 90 degrees to release the anti-bending function, and the bottom panel is folded into a U-shape.

Claims

[Claim 1] It is composed of three divided bottom panels, two front side panels, two back side panels, a right side panel, a left side panel and four casters. The bottom panel can be folded in a U-shape to sandwich the casters. This folding rack with casters is characterized in that all side panels are movable from 0 to 90 degrees with respect to the bottom panel.
