[0024] Hereinafter, embodiments of a built-in furniture structure and a building according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing, the same components are designated by the same reference numerals.

[0025] FIG. 1 is a first floor plan of a building 100 as one embodiment of a building according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the building 100 of this embodiment is an apartment building comprising a plurality of dwelling units 101. The building 100 of this embodiment has a configuration having multiple floors, but FIG. 1 exemplarily illustrates only the first floor. Although the building 100 of this embodiment is an apartment building, the building according to the present invention is not limited to an apartment building. The building according to the present invention may be, for example, a detached house. Furthermore, the building according to the present invention is not limited to a configuration having multiple floors, but may be a configuration having only one floor.

[0026] As shown in FIG. 1 , the first floor of a building 100 of this embodiment includes a common area 102, such as a common hallway, and three dwelling units 101a to 101c. Hereinafter, for ease of explanation, when there is no need to distinguish between the multiple dwelling units 101 of the building 100, including the three dwelling units 101a to 101c, they will simply be referred to as "dwelling units 101." As shown in FIG. 1 , the dwelling unit 101 includes an entrance hall 110, a hallway 111, a toilet 112, a washroom 113, a bathroom 114, a living-dining-kitchen 115 (hereinafter referred to as "LDK 115"), and two private rooms 116 and 117. However, the layout of the dwelling unit 101 is not limited to the layout shown in FIG. 1 and may be other layouts. Furthermore, the building 100 may have multiple dwelling units 101 with different floor plans.

[0027] As shown in Fig. 1, a building 100 is equipped with a built-in furniture structure 1 as one embodiment of the built-in furniture structure according to the present invention. More specifically, in the building 100 of this embodiment, each dwelling unit 101 is equipped with the built-in furniture structure 1. That is, each of the three dwelling units 101a to 101c shown in Fig. 1 is equipped with the built-in furniture structure 1. However, the built-in furniture structure 1 may be provided in only some of the dwelling units 101 of the building 100.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 1, the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment is built into a partition wall 120 that partitions the living / dining / kitchen area 115 of each dwelling unit 101, but is not limited to this configuration. The built-in furniture structure 1 may also be built into a partition wall that partitions a living room other than the living / dining / kitchen area 115, such as a partition wall that partitions a private room 116. The built-in furniture structure 1 may also be built into a partition wall that partitions a non-living room, such as a partition wall that partitions a hallway 111. Note that "living room" refers to a room as defined in Article 2, Paragraph 4 of the Building Standards Act, and "non-living room" refers to a room that does not fall under the category of a living room.

[0029] Figure 2 is an enlarged view of the built-in furniture structure 1 for the dwelling unit 101c shown in Figure 1. The built-in furniture structure 1 for the dwelling unit 101c will be described below. In this embodiment, the built-in furniture structures 1 for the other dwelling units 101, such as dwelling units 101a and 101b, are similar to the built-in furniture structure 1 for the dwelling unit 101c, and therefore will not be described here.

[0030] Fig. 3 is a front view of the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in Fig. 2. As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the built-in furniture structure 1 includes a first mounting base section 10, a storage section 20, and a second mounting base section 30.

[0031] The first mounting table portion 10 is disposed along the wall surface 80 in a plan view (see FIG. 2). For ease of explanation, the portion of the wall surface 80 that extends along the longitudinal direction of the first mounting table portion 10 in a plan view (see FIG. 2) will be referred to as the "rear wall surface 80a" below.

[0032] The rear wall surface 80a of this embodiment is a part of the wall surface 80 of the living / dining / kitchen kitchen 115. More specifically, the rear wall surface 80a of this embodiment is a portion extending between the recessed corners 81a and 81b located on both sides of the wall width direction. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the rear wall surface 80a of this embodiment is connected to a first lateral wall surface 80b extending approximately perpendicular to the rear wall surface 80a via the recessed corner 81a. Furthermore, the rear wall surface 80a of this embodiment is connected to a second lateral wall surface 80c extending approximately perpendicular to the rear wall surface 80a via the recessed corner 81b. The first lateral wall surface 80b and the second lateral wall surface 80c are arranged opposite each other. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the first mounting base portion 10 of this embodiment extends along the rear wall surface 80a from the first lateral wall surface 80b to the second lateral wall surface 80c. However, the first mounting table portion 10 may be disposed apart from the first lateral side wall surface 80b and the second lateral side wall surface 80c.

[0033] The first mounting table 10 of this embodiment is attached to the partition wall 120 that partitions the living / dining / kitchen kitchen 115 at the rear wall surface 80a. The first mounting table 10 may be, for example, a wall-mounted table formed by attaching a long rectangular plate member to the partition wall 120 with fastening members such as screws using fixtures 70 such as L-shaped angles. As described above, the first mounting table 10 of this embodiment extends along the rear wall surface 80a from the first lateral wall surface 80b to the second lateral wall surface 80c. Therefore, the first mounting table 10 of this embodiment may be attached to the partition wall 120 at the first lateral wall surface 80b and the second lateral wall surface 80c in addition to the rear wall surface 80a. The first mounting table 10 may also be, for example, a table with a floor-fixed portion attached to the upper end of a waist wall or legs, the lower end of which is attached to the floor (see FIGS. 12 and 13).

[0034] When viewed from the front from a position opposite the wall surface 80 (see Figure 3), the first mounting platform portion 10 is positioned above the floor surface 90 in the vertical direction A, defining a first gap X1 between it and the floor surface 90.

[0035] Specifically, in a front view (see FIG. 3) facing the rear wall surface 80a, the first platform portion 10 of this embodiment is disposed above the floor surface 90 in the vertical direction A, with a first gap X1 defined between the first platform portion 10 and the floor surface 90. The provision of this first gap X1 allows for effective utilization of the space A2 below the first platform portion 10. The distance D1 of the first gap X1 is not particularly limited, but is preferably set to 900 to 1000 mm. FIGS. 4(a) to 4(c) are diagrams illustrating an example of how the built-in furniture structure 1 is used by a resident. Setting the distance D1 of the first gap X1 to 900 mm or more allows pet owners to easily use the first gap X1 as a location for, for example, a pet cage 5 (see FIG. 4(a)) or a pet litter box 6 (see FIG. 4(b)), as shown in FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b). 4(c), non-pet owners can use the first gap X1 as a space for placing furniture such as a desk 7 with a height of about 700 mm. On the other hand, by setting the distance D1 of the first gap X1 to 1000 mm or less, the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 and the storage section 20 and second platform 30 (described below) located above the first platform 10 in the vertical direction A1 can be positioned at heights that are easy for a resident to use when standing.

[0036] In this embodiment, the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 is configured as a flat surface extending horizontally. This allows the entire upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 to be used as a storage area. If the resident is a pet owner, for example, a cat feeder 16 (see FIG. 4(b)), cat food dishes, cat water dishes, etc. can be placed on the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10. Compared to placing the feeder 16, etc. on the floor 90, this reduces the risk of the feeder 16, etc. tipping over due to contact with the resident. This also provides a safe place for cats, which prefer high places. If the resident is a pet owner, for example, a storage case 15 (see FIG. 4(a)) or other furniture capable of storing pet supplies may be placed on the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10. Furthermore, if the resident is not a pet owner, the upper surface 10a of the first mounting base portion 10 can be used as a shelf that is easy to use when using, for example, a desk 7 (see Figure 4(c)) as a piece of furniture placed in the first gap X1.

[0037] The depth length L1 (see FIG. 2) of the first mounting table 10, which is the length in the depth direction C perpendicular to the rear wall surface 80a of the first mounting table 10, is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, 400 to 500 mm. The width W1, which is the length in the width direction B of the first mounting table 10, is longer than the depth length L1 of the first mounting table 10. The width W1 of the first mounting table 10 may be, for example, 1200 mm or more.

[0038] When viewed from the front (see Figure 3, hereinafter simply referred to as "viewed from the front") facing the rear wall surface 80a, the storage section 20 is positioned above the first mounting base section 10 in the vertical direction A, forming a second gap X2 between the first mounting base section 10 and the storage section 20 (see Figure 3, hereinafter simply referred to as "viewed from the front").

[0039] Specifically, in a front view (see FIG. 3 ), the storage unit 20 of this embodiment is disposed above the upper surface 10a of the first table 10 at a distance A1 in the vertical direction A, with a second gap X2 defined between the storage unit 20 and the upper surface 10a of the first table 10. The storage unit 20 of this embodiment is a wall-mounted storage unit and is attached to a partition wall 120 that defines the living / dining / kitchen area 115 at the rear wall 80a. The wall-mounted storage unit 20 of this embodiment defines an internal storage space using a top panel 21, a bottom panel 22, a first side panel 23 and a second side panel 24 connected to the top panel 21 and the bottom panel 22, and a back panel 25. The wall-mounted storage unit 20 of this embodiment also includes a door 26 that can open and close the storage space. Furthermore, one or more (two in this embodiment) shelves 27 are disposed in the storage space of the wall-mounted storage unit 20 of this embodiment. The wall-mounted storage serving as the storage unit 20 of this embodiment may be attached to the partition wall 120 by fastening the back panel 25 to the partition wall 120 with fastening members such as screws. The top panel 21, the bottom panel 22, the first side panel 23, and the second side panel 24 may be fastened to the back panel 25 with fastening members such as screws. The top panel 21, the bottom panel 22, the first side panel 23, and the second side panel 24 may be bonded to the back panel 25 with an adhesive. The top panel 21, the bottom panel 22, the first side panel 23, and the second side panel 24 may be fastened to the partition wall 120 with fastening members such as screws, similar to the back panel 25. One or more shelves 27 may be movable so that their positions in the vertical direction A can be changed, or may be fixed so that their positions in the vertical direction A are fixed. However, the storage unit 20 is not limited to the configuration of this embodiment. The storage unit 20 may be a wall-mounted storage unit without a fixture 26, for example. The storage section 20 may be, for example, a wall storage unit that does not include the shelf boards 27.

[0040] Furthermore, the wall storage serving as the storage unit 20 of this embodiment is disposed adjacent to the first lateral wall surface 80b. Therefore, the first side panel 23 of the storage unit 20 may be attached to the partition wall 120 at the position of the first lateral wall surface 80b.

[0041] In this embodiment, the second gap X2 is defined between the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 and the lower surface 20b of the wall-mounted storage unit serving as the storage unit 20. The distance D2 of the second gap X2 is preferably 300 to 350 mm. Setting the distance D2 of the second gap X2 to 300 mm or more allows the resident to easily use the portion of the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 located below the storage unit 20, A2. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, setting the distance D2 of the second gap X2 to 300 mm or more allows the portion of the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 located below the storage unit 20, A2, to be used as a path for the cat. This portion may also be used as a location for a cat feeder 16 (see FIG. 4(b)). Furthermore, by setting the distance D2 of the second gap X2 to 350 mm or less, the storage unit 20 can be easily placed in a position within reach of the resident, making it easier to realize a storage unit 20 that is easy for the resident to use.

[0042] In this embodiment, the upper surface 20a of the storage section 20 abuts against the ceiling surface 91. However, the upper surface 20a of the storage section 20 may be disposed at a distance A2 below the ceiling surface 91 in the vertical direction A.

[0043] In a front view (see FIG. 3), the storage section 20 is narrower than the first mounting table section 10 in the width direction B of the first mounting table section 10. Specifically, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the width W2 of the storage section 20 in the width direction B is smaller than the width W1 of the first mounting table section 10.

[0044] The first mounting platform 10 and the storage section 20 are arranged in positions that overlap in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). More specifically, the storage section 20 of this embodiment is arranged so that its entire area in the width direction B overlaps the area in the width direction B where the first mounting platform 10 is located when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). In other words, the wall storage serving as the storage section 20 of this embodiment is not located outside in the width direction B of both ends of the first mounting platform 10 in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). However, the first mounting platform 10 and the storage section 20 may be arranged so that only a portion of them overlap in the width direction B when viewed from the front.

[0045] The entire wall storage serving as the storage unit 20 of this embodiment is located directly above the first mounting platform 10. That is, in a plan view (see FIG. 2), the entire storage unit 20 of this embodiment overlaps the first mounting platform 10. The positions in the width direction B of one end (the left end in FIG. 3) of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment and the positions in the width direction B of one end (the left end in FIG. 3) of the storage unit 20 of this embodiment are approximately the same, and both are adjacent to the first lateral side wall surface 80b. In contrast, the positions in the width direction B of the other end (the right end in FIG. 3) of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment and the other end (the right end in FIG. 3) of the storage unit 20 of this embodiment are different. Specifically, the other end in the width direction B of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment (the right end in FIG. 3 ) is adjacent to the second lateral side wall surface 80c, while the other end in the width direction B of the storage unit 20 of this embodiment (the right end in FIG. 3 ) is spaced apart from the second lateral side wall surface 80c. In other words, the storage unit 20 of this embodiment is spaced apart from the second lateral side wall surface 80c in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3 ). More specifically, the second side plate 24 of the storage unit 20 of this embodiment is spaced apart from the second lateral side wall surface 80c in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3 ). Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the area in the width direction B within which the first mounting platform 10 is located but in which the storage unit 20 is not located when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3 ) may be simply referred to as the "storage-adjacent area Y." The storage adjacent area Y in this embodiment is a water basin adjacent to the right side of the storage section 20 in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3).

[0046] The depth length L2 of the storage unit 20 is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 250 to 450 mm. Furthermore, the depth length L2 of the storage unit 20 is preferably equal to or less than the depth length L1 of the first mounting platform 10. This can improve the ease of use of the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 by the occupant. FIGS. 4(a) to 4(c) show a configuration in which the depth length L1 of the first mounting platform 10 and the depth length L2 of the storage unit 20 are substantially equal. In contrast, FIGS. 5(a) to 5(c) show a configuration in which the depth length L2 of the storage unit 20 is shorter than the depth length L1 of the first mounting platform 10. From the perspective of the ease of use of the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 by the occupant, it is more preferable that the depth length L2 of the storage unit 20 be shorter than the depth length L1 of the first mounting platform 10, as shown in FIGS. 5(a) to 5(c). However, from the viewpoint of achieving both ease of use for the occupant of the upper surface 10a of the first mounting base portion 10 and ensuring storage space in the storage portion 20, it is preferable that the depth length L1 of the first mounting base portion 10 and the depth length L2 of the storage portion 20 are approximately equal, as shown in Figures 4(a) to 4(c).

[0047] The second mounting platform portion 30 is disposed above the first mounting platform portion 10 in the vertical direction A at a distance A1, defining a third gap X3 between the second mounting platform portion 30 and the first mounting platform portion 10, as viewed from the front (see FIG. 3).

[0048] Specifically, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is disposed above the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 at a distance A1 in the vertical direction A, with a third gap X3 defined between the second mounting platform 30 and the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10. The second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is a wall-mounted shelf, and is attached to a partition wall 120 that defines the LDK 115 at the rear wall surface 80a. The wall-mounted shelf as the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is made of a rectangular plate member. The wall-mounted shelf as the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment may be formed by attaching a rectangular plate member to the partition wall 120 using a fixture 71 such as an L-shaped angle and a fastening member such as a screw.

[0049] The rectangular plate member constituting the wall-mounted shelf serving as the second mounting base 30 preferably has a rectangular or square outer shape with each side being 250 mm or longer in a plan view in the thickness direction, and more preferably has a rectangular or square outer shape with each side being 250 mm or longer and at least a long side being 300 mm or longer in a plan view in the thickness direction. This ensures that the upper surface 30a of the second mounting base 30 is large enough for easy use by the resident, regardless of whether the resident is a pet owner or not. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, the upper surface 30a of the second mounting base 30 is large enough for easy use by the cat. The rectangular plate member of this embodiment has a rectangular outer shape with short sides of 250 mm and long sides of 300 mm in a plan view in the thickness direction. Furthermore, the wall-mounted shelf serving as the second mounting table portion 30 of this embodiment is arranged so that the long side of the plate member, 300 mm, extends in the width direction B, and the short side of the plate member, 250 mm, extends in the depth direction C.

[0050] In this embodiment, the third gap X3 is defined between the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 and the lower surface 30b of the wall-mounted shelf serving as the second platform 30. The distance D3 of the third gap X3 is preferably 300 to 450 mm. By setting the distance D3 of the third gap X3 to 300 mm or more, the resident can easily use the portion of the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 located below the second platform 30, which is located at A2. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, setting the distance D3 of the third gap X3 to 300 mm or more allows the portion of the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 located below the second platform 30, which is located at A2, to be used as a route for the cat. Furthermore, by setting the distance D3 of the third gap X3 to 450 mm or less, it becomes easier to position the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30 within reach of the resident, making it easier to realize a second platform 30 that is easy for the resident to use. Also, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, setting the distance D3 of the third gap X3 to 450 mm or less makes it easier for the cat to move from the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10 to the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30, and from the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30 to the upper surface 10a of the first platform 10. In other words, it becomes possible to realize a second platform 30 that is easy for cats to use.

[0051] The second mounting table section 30 is disposed at a different position from the storage section 20 in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). Specifically, the second mounting table section 30 in this embodiment is disposed in the storage adjacent area Y.

[0052] The first and second mounting platforms 10 and 30 are arranged in positions that overlap in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). More specifically, the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is arranged so that its entire area in the width direction B overlaps the area in the width direction B where the first mounting platform 10 is located when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). In other words, the wall-mounted shelf serving as the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is not located outside in the width direction B of both ends of the first mounting platform 10 in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). However, the first and second mounting platforms 10 and 30 may be arranged so that only a portion of them overlap in the width direction B when viewed from the front.

[0053] The entire wall shelf serving as the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is located directly above the first mounting platform 10. That is, in a plan view (see FIG. 2), the entire second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment overlaps the first mounting platform 10. In addition, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the positions in the width direction B of the right end of the width direction B of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment and the right end of the width direction B of the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment are approximately the same, and both are adjacent to the second lateral wall surface 80c. In contrast, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the positions in the width direction B of the left end of the width direction B of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment and the left end of the width direction B of the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment are different. Specifically, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the left end in the width direction B of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment is adjacent to the first lateral side wall surface 80b, while the left end in the width direction B of the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is spaced apart in the width direction B from the first lateral side wall surface 80b. Furthermore, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the left end in the width direction B of the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment is also spaced apart in the width direction B from the right end in the width direction B of the storage section 20. In other words, in a front view (see FIG. 3), the width W3 of the second mounting platform 30 in the width direction B is smaller than the width W4 of the storage adjacent area Y in the width direction B. Note that, as shown in FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the sum of the width W2 of the storage section 20 and the width W4 of the storage adjacent area Y is equal to the width W1 of the first mounting platform 10. By satisfying the relationship of width W4 > width W3 in this manner, a gap can be formed between the storage unit 20 and the second mounting base 30 in the width direction B, or between the second lateral wall surface 80c and the second mounting base 30 in the width direction B (in this embodiment, between the storage unit 20 and the second mounting base 30 in the width direction B). The distance of this gap in the width direction B is preferably 300 mm or more. In this manner, a cat on the upper surface 10a of the first mounting base 10 can easily move to the upper surface 30a of the second mounting base 30 through this gap. Note that when the storage adjacent areas Y are located on both sides of the storage unit 20 in the width direction B in a front view (see FIG. 3), the sum of the widths of the storage adjacent areas Y on both sides is the width W4.

[0054] As described above, in this embodiment, the width W3 of the second mounting platform 30 is smaller than the width W4 of the storage adjacent area Y, but this is not limited to this configuration. The width W3 of the second mounting platform 30 may be equal to the width W4 of the storage adjacent area Y. That is, the second mounting platform 30 may extend from the right end of the storage section 20 in the width direction B to the second lateral wall surface 80c in a front view (see FIG. 3). In such a case, it is preferable that the first mounting platform 10 is disposed so as to protrude toward the front side, i.e., the near side in the depth direction C, from the second mounting platform 30. In this manner, a cat on the top surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 can easily move from a portion of the top surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 that is located closer to the front side in the depth direction C than the second mounting platform 30 to the top surface 30a of the second mounting platform 30. In addition, the portion of the first platform 10 that is not covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the storage section 20 and the second platform 30 preferably has an area of ​​250 mm x 250 mm or more so that the cat can easily climb up and down, and more preferably has an area of ​​250 mm x 300 mm or more.

[0055] As described above, the distance D2 of the second gap X2 is preferably 300 to 350 mm, and the distance D3 of the third gap X3 is preferably 300 to 450 mm. The distance D2 of the second gap X2 and the distance D3 of the third gap X3 may be different, or may be substantially equal, as shown in FIG. 3 . By making the distance D2 of the second gap X2 and the distance D3 of the third gap X3 substantially equal, differences in usability are unlikely to occur between the portion of the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 located below the storage section 20 A2 and the portion of the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 located below the second mounting platform 30 A2. In other words, differences in usability due to the position in the width direction B of the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 can be prevented.

[0056] Furthermore, the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10 of this embodiment is a flat surface extending horizontally. The lower surface 20b of the storage unit 20, which defines the second gap X2 between itself and the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10, is located at approximately the same position in the vertical direction A as the lower surface 30b of the second mounting platform 30, which defines the third gap X3 between itself and the upper surface 10a of the first mounting platform 10. In other words, the positions in the vertical direction A of the lower surface of the bottom plate 22, which is the lower surface 20b of the wall-mounted storage unit serving as the storage unit 20 of this embodiment, and the lower surface 30b of the wall-mounted shelf serving as the second mounting platform 30 of this embodiment, are approximately the same. By doing this, when viewed from the front (see Figure 3), the lower surface 20b of the storage section 20 and the lower surface 30b of the second mounting base section 30 emphasize the horizontal line that is approximately parallel to the upper surface 10a and lower surface 10b of the first mounting base section 10, giving the impression of a neat and tidy built-in furniture structure 1 and improving the design of the built-in furniture structure 1.

[0057] As described above, the second mounting table portion 30 in this embodiment is attached to the partition wall 120 at the rear wall surface 80a, but the attachment position of the second mounting table portion 30 is not limited to the rear wall surface 80a. The second mounting table portion 30 may be attached to the second lateral wall surface 80c, for example (see FIGS. 10 to 11B).

[0058] 3, the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment further includes one or more mounting bases 40 arranged at a distance A1 above the second mounting base 30 in the vertical direction A when viewed from the front. In this way, since the built-in furniture structure 1 includes one or more mounting bases 40, the resident can place objects on the upper surfaces 40a of the one or more mounting bases 40 in addition to the upper surface 10a of the first mounting base 10 and the upper surface 30a of the second mounting base 30. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, the upper surfaces 40a of the one or more mounting bases 40 can also be used as places for the cat to climb onto from the upper surface 10a of the first mounting base 10 or the upper surface 30a of the second mounting base 30.

[0059] More specifically, the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment has two mounting base portions 41, 42 as one or more mounting base portions 40. The two mounting base portions 41, 42 of this embodiment are arranged in the storage adjacent area Y. One mounting base portion 41 of the two mounting base portions 41, 42 is located below the other mounting base portion 42 in the vertical direction A, A2. For ease of explanation, in the following, in this embodiment, the two mounting base portions 41, 42 will be referred to as the "third mounting base portion 41" and the "fourth mounting base portion 42."

[0060] The third and fourth mounting tables 41 and 42 of this embodiment are wall-mounted shelves attached to a partition wall 120 that partitions the living / dining / kitchen kitchen 115 at the rear wall surface 80a. The wall-mounted shelves serving as the third and fourth mounting tables 41 and 42 of this embodiment are made of rectangular plate members. The wall-mounted shelf serving as the third mounting table 41 of this embodiment may be formed by attaching a rectangular plate member to the partition wall 120 with fastening members such as screws using a fixture 72 such as an L-shaped angle. The wall-mounted shelf serving as the fourth mounting table 42 of this embodiment may be formed by attaching a rectangular plate member to the partition wall 120 with fastening members such as screws using a fixture 73 such as an L-shaped angle. The fourth mounting table 42 of this embodiment is disposed adjacent to the second lateral wall surface 80c. Therefore, the fourth mounting table portion 42 of this embodiment may be attached to the partition wall 120 at the position of the second lateral side wall surface 80c in addition to or instead of the position of the rear side wall surface 80a.

[0061] The rectangular plate member constituting the wall shelf serving as the third mounting base 41 preferably has a rectangular or square outer shape with each side being 250 mm or longer in a plan view in the thickness direction. More preferably, the rectangular or square outer shape has each side being 250 mm or longer and at least a long side being 300 mm or longer in a plan view in the thickness direction. This ensures that the upper surface 41a of the third mounting base 41 is large enough for easy use by the resident, regardless of whether the resident is a pet owner or not. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, the upper surface 41a of the third mounting base 41 is large enough for easy use by the cat. The rectangular plate member of this embodiment has a rectangular outer shape with short sides of 250 mm and long sides of 300 mm in a plan view in the thickness direction. The wall-mounted shelf serving as the third mounting table portion 41 of this embodiment is arranged so that the long side of the plate member, 300 mm, extends in the width direction B, and the short side of the plate member, 250 mm, extends in the depth direction C.

[0062] The rectangular plate member constituting the wall-mounted shelf as the fourth mounting platform 42 may be the same as the rectangular plate member constituting the wall-mounted shelf as the third mounting platform 41. However, the fourth mounting platform 42 in this embodiment is constituted by a long rectangular plate member that also serves as the catwalk 50.

[0063] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 , in this embodiment, at least a portion of the second mounting platform 30 is not covered by the third mounting platform 41 above the vertical direction A. More specifically, the entire second mounting platform 30 is not covered by the third mounting platform 41 above the vertical direction A. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 , the second mounting platform 30 and the third mounting platform 41 are disposed at different positions in the width direction B. That is, the second mounting platform 30 and the third mounting platform 41 do not overlap in the width direction B. Here, the third mounting platform 41 in this embodiment is the lowermost mounting platform located at the lowest position A2 in the vertical direction A among one or more mounting platforms 40 (the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 in this embodiment). In this way, at least a portion of the second platform 30 is not covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the third platform 41 serving as the lower end platform, so the cat can easily move from the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30 to the upper surface 41a of the third platform 41. In other words, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, the second platform 30 and the third platform 41 can easily be used as places where the cat can come and go.

[0064] In the present embodiment, the portion of the second mounting platform 30 that is not covered by the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower end mounting platform is realized by differentiating the positions of the second mounting platform 30 and the third mounting platform 41 in the width direction B, but this is not limited to this configuration. The portion of the second mounting platform 30 that is not covered by the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower end mounting platform may also be realized by, for example, differentiating the lengths of the second mounting platform 30 and the third mounting platform 41 in the width direction B. Furthermore, the portion of the second mounting platform 30 that is not covered by the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower end mounting platform may also be realized by, for example, differentiating the positions or lengths of the second mounting platform 30 and the third mounting platform 41 in the depth direction C (see FIGS. 10 to 11B). In addition, the portion of the second platform 30 that is not covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the third platform 41 as the lower end platform is preferably at least 250 mm x 250 mm in size so that the cat can easily climb up and down, and more preferably at least 250 mm x 300 mm in size.

[0065] The separation distance D4 in the vertical direction A between the second mounting platform 30 and the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower end mounting platform is preferably 300 to 350 mm. The separation distance D4 here refers to the distance in the vertical direction A between the upper surface 30a of the second mounting platform 30 and the lower surface 41b of the third mounting platform 41. Even if there is a portion of the upper surface 30a of the second mounting platform 30 that is covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the third mounting platform 41, by setting the separation distance D4 to 300 mm or more, that portion of the upper surface 30a of the second mounting platform 30 can be easily used by the resident as a place to put things, ensuring ease of use for the resident. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner of a cat, even if a portion of the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30 is covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the third platform 41, by setting the separation distance D4 to 300 mm or more, that portion of the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30 can be used as a route for the cat to move around. Furthermore, by setting the separation distance D4 to 350 mm or less, the upper surface 41a of the third platform 41 can be easily placed within reach of the resident, making it easier to realize a third platform 41 that is easy for the resident to use. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner of a cat, by setting the separation distance D4 to 350 mm or less, it becomes easier for the cat to move from the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30 to the upper surface 41a of the third platform 41 and from the upper surface 41a of the third platform 41 to the upper surface 30a of the second platform 30. In other words, the third platform portion 41 can be made easy to use even for cats.

[0066] As described above, the one or more mounting bases 40 of this embodiment include a third mounting base 41 and a fourth mounting base 42 as multiple mounting bases 40 spaced apart from one another in the vertical direction A. That is, by providing multiple mounting bases 40 above the second mounting base 30 in the vertical direction A1, the resident has more space to place things compared to a configuration in which only one mounting base 40 is provided above the second mounting base 30 in the vertical direction A1. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, the space can also be used as a place for the cat to climb onto. Therefore, by providing multiple mounting bases 40 above the second mounting base 30 in the vertical direction A1, the space available for the cat can be increased compared to a configuration in which only one mounting base 40 is provided above the second mounting base 30 in the vertical direction A1.

[0067] 2 and 3, at least a portion of the third mounting platform 41 of this embodiment is not covered by the fourth mounting platform 42 above the vertical direction A at an upper side A1. More specifically, the entire third mounting platform 41 of this embodiment is not covered by the fourth mounting platform 42 above the vertical direction A at an upper side A1. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 of this embodiment are disposed at different positions in the width direction B. In other words, the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 of this embodiment do not overlap in the width direction B. Here, if any two adjacent mounting tables 40 among the plurality of mounting tables 40 in the vertical direction A are defined as a "lower mounting table" and an "upper mounting table," and attention is focused on the third mounting table 41 and the fourth mounting table 42 of this embodiment, the third mounting table 41 corresponds to the lower mounting table, and the fourth mounting table 42 corresponds to the upper mounting table. In this manner, by adopting a configuration in which at least a portion of the third mounting table 41 as the lower mounting table is not covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the fourth mounting table 42 as the upper mounting table, it is easy for a cat to move from the upper surface 41 a of the third mounting table 41 as the lower mounting table to the upper surface 42 a of the fourth mounting table 42 as the upper mounting table. That is, if the resident is a pet owner who keeps a cat, the third platform section 41 and the fourth platform section 42 can be used as a place where the cat can come and go.

[0068] In this embodiment, the portion of the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower mounting platform that is not covered by the fourth mounting platform 42 serving as the upper mounting platform is achieved by differentiating the positions of the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 in the width direction B, but this is not the only possible configuration. The portion of the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower mounting platform that is not covered by the fourth mounting platform 42 serving as the upper mounting platform may also be achieved by, for example, differentiating the lengths of the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 in the width direction B. Furthermore, the portion of the third mounting platform 41 serving as the lower mounting platform that is not covered by the fourth mounting platform 42 serving as the upper mounting platform may also be achieved by, for example, differentiating the positions or lengths of the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 in the depth direction C (see FIGS. 10 to 11B). In addition, the portion of the third mounting platform 41 as the lower mounting platform that is not covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the fourth mounting platform 42 as the upper mounting platform preferably has an area of ​​250 mm x 250 mm or more so that the cat can easily climb up and down, and more preferably has an area of ​​250 mm x 300 mm or more.

[0069] 3, the second mounting table 30, the third mounting table 41, and the fourth mounting table 42 in this embodiment are arranged in a staggered pattern when viewed from the front, but this arrangement is not limited to this. The second mounting table 30, the third mounting table 41, and the fourth mounting table 42 may also be arranged in a stepped pattern when viewed from the front (see FIGS. 6 to 9).

[0070] Furthermore, the separation distance D5 in the vertical direction A between the third mounting platform 41 as the lower mounting platform and the fourth mounting platform 42 as the upper mounting platform is preferably 300 to 350 mm. The separation distance D5 here refers to the distance in the vertical direction A between the upper surface 41 a of the third mounting platform 41 and the lower surface 42 b of the fourth mounting platform 42. Even if there is a part of the upper surface 41 a of the third mounting platform 41 that is covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the fourth mounting platform 42, by setting the separation distance D5 to 300 mm or more, that part of the upper surface 41 a of the third mounting platform 41 can be easily used by the resident as a place to put things, ensuring ease of use for the resident. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner of a cat, even if a portion of the upper surface 41a of the third mounting platform 41 is covered above A1 in the vertical direction A by the fourth mounting platform 42, by setting the separation distance D5 to 300 mm or more, that portion of the upper surface 41a of the third mounting platform 41 can be used as a route for the cat to move around. Furthermore, by setting the separation distance D5 to 350 mm or less, the upper surface 42a of the fourth mounting platform 42 can be easily positioned within reach of the resident, making it easier to realize a fourth mounting platform 42 that is easy for the resident to use. Furthermore, if the resident is a pet owner of a cat, by setting the separation distance D5 to 350 mm or less, it becomes easier for the cat to move from the upper surface 41a of the third mounting platform 41 to the upper surface 42a of the fourth mounting platform 42 and from the upper surface 42a of the fourth mounting platform 42 to the upper surface 41a of the third mounting platform 41. That is, it is possible to realize a fourth platform section 42 that is easy for cats to use. It is preferable that the separation distance D5 is approximately equal to the above-mentioned separation distance D4 so that cats can ascend and descend at the same rhythm.

[0071] The built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment is configured to include two mount bases 40, a third mount base 41 and a fourth mount base 42, arranged above the second mount base 30 in the vertical direction A1, but is not limited to this configuration. The built-in furniture structure 1 may be configured to include, for example, only one mount base 40 arranged above the second mount base 30 in the vertical direction A1. The built-in furniture structure 1 may also be configured to include, for example, three or more mount bases 40 arranged above the second mount base 30 in the vertical direction A1.

[0072] In addition, in the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment, the third mounting platform 41 and the fourth mounting platform 42 as one or more mounting platforms 40 arranged at a distance A1 above the second mounting platform 30 in the vertical direction A are arranged in a position overlapping the first mounting platform 10 in the width direction B when viewed from the front (see Figure 3).

[0073] More specifically, the third mounting platform 41 of this embodiment is arranged such that its entire area in the width direction B overlaps the area in the width direction B where the first mounting platform 10 is located, when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). In other words, the third mounting platform 41 of this embodiment is not located outside in the width direction B of both ends of the first mounting platform 10 in the width direction B, when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). However, the first mounting platform 10 and the third mounting platform 41 may be arranged such that only a portion of them overlap each other in the width direction B, when viewed from the front.

[0074] Furthermore, the fourth mounting platform 42 of this embodiment is arranged so that its entire area in the width direction B overlaps the area in the width direction B in which the first mounting platform 10 is located, when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). In other words, the fourth mounting platform 42 of this embodiment is not located outside in the width direction B of both ends of the first mounting platform 10 in the width direction B, when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). However, the first mounting platform 10 and the fourth mounting platform 42 may be arranged so that only a portion of them overlap each other in the width direction B, when viewed from the front.

[0075] As described above, the storage section 20 and the second mounting table 30 are also arranged so that their entire areas in the width direction B overlap the area in the width direction B where the first mounting table 10 is located when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). In other words, in the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment, the storage section 20, the second mounting table 30, and one or more mounting tables 40 (the third mounting table 41 and the fourth mounting table 42 in this embodiment) are all arranged so that their entire areas in the width direction B overlap the area in the width direction B where the first mounting table 10 is located when viewed from the front (see FIG. 3). In this way, a built-in furniture structure 1 can be realized that is compact in the width direction B, yet easy for residents and pets to use.

[0076] Furthermore, the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment includes, in front view (see FIG. 3), a catwalk 50 connected to at least one of the one or more mount bases 40 arranged spaced apart above the second mount base 30 in the vertical direction A1. More specifically, the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment includes a catwalk 50 connected to the fourth mount base 42. The catwalk 50 of this embodiment extends from the fourth mount base 42 and extends along the second lateral wall surface 80c and the portion of the wall surface 80 that is connected to the second lateral wall surface 80c via the corner portion 82b. The fourth mount base 42 and the catwalk 50 of this embodiment are made of long, rectangular plate members. The long rectangular plate members constituting the fourth platform 42 and the catwalk 50 are attached to the partition wall 120 at the position of the second lateral wall surface 80c and at the position of the wall surface 80 that connects to the second lateral wall surface 80c via the corner portion 82b, using fixtures 74 such as L-shaped angles and fastening members such as screws. By providing such a catwalk 50, it becomes easier to ensure a route for the cat to move around.

[0077] The catwalk 50 is preferably configured to be connected to at least the platform 40 (fourth platform 42 in this embodiment) located at the uppermost position A1 among one or more platform 40 spaced apart from the second platform 30 in the vertical direction A1. This makes it easier to ensure a favorable route for cats, who prefer high places. Furthermore, by placing the catwalk 50 on the top of the wall surface 80, the catwalk 50 can be prevented from interfering with the resident's living space. Therefore, the catwalk 50 is preferably installed at a position A1 above any fixtures provided on the wall surface 80. Furthermore, the distance from the catwalk 50 to the ceiling surface 91 is preferably 300 mm or more. This makes it possible to realize a catwalk 50 that is easy for cats to use.

[0078] 3, the wall surface 80 has a decorative wall surface portion 83 made of a calcium silicate board below the first mounting base portion 10 in the vertical direction A2. Specifically, in this embodiment, the decorative wall surface portion 83 is provided on the back wall surface 80a at a position A2 below the first mounting base portion 10 in the vertical direction A. Furthermore, it is preferable that the decorative wall surface portion 83 is also provided on the first lateral side wall surface 80b and the second lateral side wall surface 80c at a position A2 below the first mounting base portion 10 in the vertical direction A. This makes it easy to clean even if liquid such as pet urine adheres to the wall surface 80 around the first gap X1.

[0079] 3, the wall surface 80 is preferably provided with an outlet 84 above A1 or below A2 the first mounting platform 10 in the vertical direction A. Specifically, in this embodiment, the outlet 84 is provided on the rear wall surface 80a at a position A2 below the first mounting platform 10 in the vertical direction A. However, the outlet 84 may also be provided on the rear wall surface 80a at a position A1 above the first mounting platform 10 in the vertical direction A. Specifically, the outlet 84 may also be provided on the rear wall surface 80a at a position between the first mounting platform 10 and the storage section 20 in a front view (see FIG. 3). The outlet 84 may also be provided, for example, on either the first lateral wall surface 80b or the second lateral wall surface 80c at a position A1 above or A2 below the first mounting platform 10 in the vertical direction A.

[0080] 3, the first mounting base 10 defines an insertion opening 11 through which a cable including a plug that can be inserted into an outlet 84 can be inserted. The insertion opening 11 may be configured to penetrate the first mounting base 10 in the vertical direction A, and may be formed, for example, by a notch or a through-hole that penetrates the first mounting base 10 in the vertical direction A. Even if the outlet 84 is provided only on either the upper side A1 or the lower side A2 of the first mounting base 10 in the vertical direction A, the provision of the insertion opening 11 in the first mounting base 10 makes it possible to insert a cable plug into the outlet 84 through the insertion opening 11 from the other of the upper side A1 and the lower side A2 of the first mounting base 10 in the vertical direction A. In other words, the provision of the insertion opening 11 makes it easier to use the outlet 84 for both equipment located above A1 relative to the first mounting base portion 10 and equipment located below A2 relative to the first mounting base portion 10.

[0081] The built-in furniture structure and building according to the present invention are not limited to the specific configurations shown in the above-described embodiments, and various modifications, changes, and combinations are possible without departing from the scope of the claims.

In the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 described above, the second mounting platform 30 is arranged adjacent to the storage section 20 in the width direction B in front view (see FIG. 7). However, as shown in FIG. 9, the second mounting platform 30 may be arranged spaced apart from the storage section 20 in the width direction B in front view.

[0084] 10, 11A, and 11B are diagrams showing another modified example of the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment. Specifically, FIG. 10 is a plan view of the modified example of the built-in furniture structure 1. FIG. 11A is a front view of the modified example of the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 11B is a front view of the second lateral wall surface 80c as seen from a position opposite the second lateral wall surface 80c shown in FIG. 10. In the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 9, the second mounting table portion 30, the third mounting table portion 41, and the fourth mounting table portion 42 are arranged adjacent to the back wall surface 80a directly above the first mounting table portion 10 in the vertical direction A. However, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 11B, the second mounting table portion 30, the third mounting table portion 41, and the fourth mounting table portion 42 do not have to be arranged directly above the first mounting table portion 10 in the vertical direction A. That is, the second mounting platform 30, the third mounting platform 41, and the fourth mounting platform 42 do not have to be disposed adjacent to the rear wall surface 80a. As shown in FIGS. 10 to 11B, the second mounting platform 30, the third mounting platform 41, and the fourth mounting platform 42 may be disposed adjacent to the second lateral wall surface 80c along the second lateral wall surface 80c. As shown in FIG. 11B, the second mounting platform 30, the third mounting platform 41, and the fourth mounting platform 42 are disposed at different positions in the depth direction C, so that they are arranged in a staircase pattern when viewed from the front of the second lateral wall surface 80c. The second mounting platform 30, the third mounting platform 41, and the fourth mounting platform 42 may be disposed at different positions in the depth direction C, so that they are arranged in a staggered pattern when viewed from the front of the second lateral wall surface 80c (see FIG. 11B).

[0085] FIG. 12 is a front view of another modified example of the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment. In the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 11B, the portion extending between the recessed corners 81a, 81b located on both sides of the wall width direction is the back wall surface 80a. However, in the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIG. 12, the portion having the recessed corner 81a on only one side of the wall width direction is the back wall surface 80a. Of both ends of the first mounting base 10 in the width direction B, the other end opposite the one end adjacent to the first lateral side wall surface 80b is attached to the upper end of the waist wall portion 85, which serves as a floor-fixed portion. In other words, the first mounting base 10 shown in FIG. 12 is attached to the partition wall 120 at the position of the rear wall surface 80a and is also attached to the floor via the waist wall portion 85.

[0086] FIG. 13 is a front view of another modified example of the built-in furniture structure 1 of this embodiment. The built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 11B has the back wall surface 80a extending between the recessed corners 81a, 81b located on both sides of the wall width direction. However, the built-in furniture structure 1 shown in FIG. 13 has the back wall surface 80a located on the portion of the wall that does not have recessed corners on both sides of the wall width direction. Each of the ends of the first mounting base 10 in the width direction B is attached to the upper end of a waist wall portion 85, which serves as a floor-fixed portion. That is, the first mounting base 10 shown in FIG. 13 is attached to the partition wall 120 at the position of the back wall surface 80a, and is attached to the floor via the waist wall portion 85 at both ends of the width direction B. Note that the first mounting base 10 shown in FIG. 13 may not be attached to the partition wall 120, but may be attached to the floor via the waist wall portion 85 only at both ends of the width direction B.

[0087] 12 and 13, the built-in furniture structure 1 is not limited to a configuration in which it is placed in a recessed portion of the wall surface 80 formed by the recessed corners 81a, 81b (see FIG. 2, etc.) on both sides and the protruding corners 82a, 82b (see FIG. 2, etc.) on both sides. In such a case, the catwalk 50 may be placed along the rear wall surface 80a, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13. [Industrial Applicability]
