Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a freely replaceable high-shelf furniture with shelf boards that have dowel holes attached to both ends of the side panels at the opening of an open space, and that have freely removable plastic earthquake-resistant mounting fixtures and storage cases with slide rails attached to the shelves. [Background technology]

[0002] In order to improve accessibility to the open space and ensure the storage height of the storage section, a cabinet has been proposed which has an open space below the storage section, the storage section having a front panel located on the front side of the cabinet and a bottom panel located on the open space side, the bottom panel being located below the lower edge of the front panel and the front edge of the bottom panel being located further back in the cabinet than the front panel, with access spaces above the open space, below the lower edge of the front panel, and in front of the front edge of the bottom panel (see Patent Document 1).

[0003] A composite box-shaped furniture piece has been proposed that has an unexpected and wild overall atmosphere, has ladder-type frame structures on the sides, and has steel side bodies with wooden storage box parts placed in the center. The box-shaped furniture piece is strong and compact, and has steel ladder-type frame structures on both sides, and has wooden furniture parts selected from a wooden shelf, a box-shaped shelf, a TV cabinet stand with drawers, a counter stand, and a storage box with drawers, or with hinged doors, or with sliding doors in the center. The composite box-shaped furniture piece has a steel side frame structure that is bonded to the wooden furniture parts with bolts and nuts, making it easy to assemble, remove, and rearrange (see Patent Document 2).

[0004] In order to provide furniture that allows the mounting height of the attached part to be changed without impairing the aesthetic appearance, a piece of furniture has been proposed that has a back panel with a back-side mounting part, a removably attached part provided on the front surface of the back panel, an attached-side mounting part provided on the attached part, and a mounting tool that connects the back-side mounting part and the attached-side mounting part to each other allows the attached part to be attached to the back panel, and allows the mounting position of the attached part in the vertical direction relative to the back panel to be changed, so that when the attached part is attached to the back panel, the back-side mounting part, the attached-side mounting part, and the mounting tool cannot be seen from the front (see Patent Document 3).

[0005] In a furniture shelf drawer, a storage space is defined by a bottom plate, left and right side plates erected at both left and right ends of the bottom plate, and a front plate and a back plate erected at both front and rear ends of the bottom plate, and the drawer is supported on the furniture shelf drawer so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction. In the drawer, a partition plate extending in the front-rear direction is erected in the storage space close to one of the left and right side plates. In the lateral divided space formed between the partition plate and the one side plate, which is elongated in the front-rear direction, tall items such as cutting boards can be stored compactly and stably in the upright position. A proposal has been made to store other items separately in the other divided space (see Patent Document 4).

[0006] In furniture shelves, if the shelves can be freely changed, various items can be stored, and it is difficult to take things in and out of the back of the shelves, but if a drawer is placed on top of the shelf, it is easy to take out the internal drawer if the shelf is firmly fixed. The uses for storing various items have become diverse, but with normal furniture, there are only a limited number of items that can be used efficiently and widely, and especially with deep containers, the storage value of only the items at the front has decreased. In order to improve these issues, proposals for furniture shelves with storage cases are desired from the perspective of storage and use. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0008] In the kitchen space of an ordinary home, there are tools of various shapes and forms. When storing these tools and utensils, it is difficult to use fixed furniture. Therefore, there is a demand for a wide variety of tools that can be stored and easily removed, but there are few of them. In particular, kitchen tools come in various shapes and sizes, and are made of pottery, porcelain, glass, metal, etc., as well as heating, cooking, and cleaning equipment, which have become heavy, causing problems with the stability, storage, and storability of the containers. There was also a problem that the ratio of the storage space of the shelf furniture could not be used efficiently. This invention aims to address the above-mentioned problems in shelf furniture drawers, which have a large difference in weight or shape of the storage items, and aims to provide a tool storage drawer that can store tall items such as cutting boards and ladles upright and stably and easily take them out, and that does not interfere with the storage of other items. The object of this invention is to provide a high-back shelf furniture that has no dead space and can efficiently use the storage space of the opening space.

[0009] When storing various tools and utensils in the open space of the above-mentioned shelf furniture, including differences in size, the tools stored from the front side of the storage space to the depth are actively used at the front side of the storage space, but the tools at the depth are hardly used. Therefore, it is desired that tools that fit within the shelf part of the open space are widely and generally adopted and used in various ways. Focusing on ensuring the capacity of the storage tools to be placed on the shelf part of the above-mentioned open space, a safety storage case that can be used as a drawer in all the shelves of the above-mentioned open space is conceived. The storage case in the above-mentioned storage part opens smoothly to the back part. In addition, the sense of unity of the equipment, utensils, and tableware is lost in the above-mentioned shelf furniture, and the aesthetic appearance is deteriorated. The problem is to improve these. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] This is a high-shelf furniture with freely replaceable shelves, which is a storage cabinet having an opening with rectangular open spaces in one or two vertical levels and two horizontal rows, with cylindrical dowel holes attached to both ends of the side panel of the opening, shelves made of wooden boards, and plastic earthquake-resistant mounting fixtures attached that allow the shelves to be fixed to the dowel holes and to be freely removable, storage cases capable of storing various items can be placed side by side on more than 50% of the shelves, and slide rails are placed between the bottom underside of the storage cases and the surface of the shelves, allowing each storage case to be stably pulled out to its innermost part near the front.

[0011] The shelf furniture has openings that are rectangular open spaces with 1-2 levels vertically and 2 rows horizontally, and has dimensions of 600-1200mm wide, 1200-1800mm high, and 350-500mm deep. Each opening has cylindrical dowel holes of 4-7mmφ attached at 25-40mm intervals on both ends of the side panel, and 4-10 shelves made of wooden boards with a thickness of 20-30mm can be installed at any position in the height direction. The cylindrical dowel holes are attached to the four corners of the shelves by removable earthquake-resistant plastic mounting fixtures. The shelves are stably fixed to the shelves in dowel holes, and 50% or more of the shelves are filled with mesh-like, plate-like, or enclosure-like metal, resin, or wooden box-like containers capable of neatly storing a variety of irregularly shaped items. Various item storage cases having a width of 300 to 400 mm and a height of 70 to 300 mm are arranged in 1 to 2 rows, and sliding rails are placed horizontally on the underside of the bottom of the storage cases and on the top of the shelves to allow the cases to be easily pulled out to the innermost part, and a sliding door or hinged door is provided on the front.

[0012] The plastic earthquake-resistant mounting fixture to be attached to the shelf is made of tough engineering plastic and is approximately L-shaped, measuring 2 to 5 mm thick and 40 to 80 mm long, with a metal cylinder attached to one side of the L-shape that can be inserted into a dowel hole, and a protruding hook part at the end of the other side that can be hooked onto the corner of the shelf. The slide rail that pulls out storage cases placed on 50% or more of the top surface of the shelf to the front is made of metal, measuring 300 to 400 mm long and 3 to 4 mm thick, with the outer frame of 2 to 3 stages of the slide rail fixed horizontally to the surface of the shelf and the internal sliding part adhesively fixed to the bottom of the storage case to enable stable sliding, and the adhesion between the shelf and side panels is also stabilized against changes in weight and strength, so that the rear parts of even fully loaded storage cases can be pulled out to the front.

[0013] The storage cases are containers selected from the group consisting of mesh-, plate-, or enclosure-shaped metal or resin kitchen utensil storage cases with heights of 70 to 150 mm and widths of 300 to 400 mm that can be arranged in one or two rows, wire mesh or plate-shaped box-shaped containers for lining up plates and dishes vertically, containers with side panels that can be freely removed, and lattice-shaped box-shaped containers. Effect of the Invention

[0014] According to the present invention, the high-backed shelf furniture with freely replaceable shelves can store a wide variety of utensils and can be easily removed. The shapes and sizes of kitchen utensils are varied, and the weight of pottery, porcelain, glass, metalware, etc. has increased. Furthermore, even in the case of heating equipment, cooking equipment, cleaning equipment, and other equipment, containers and equipment can be stably stored and stored. It can be used efficiently due to the ratio of storage space in the open space. In drawers installed on more than 50% of shelves, where the weight or shape of the storage items varies greatly, tall items such as cutting boards and ladles can be stored upright in a stable and easy-to-remove manner, and the tall items stored upright do not interfere with the storage of other items. In addition, the shelves were rarely changed due to vibrations during earthquakes, and the furniture could be held stably. In addition, the storage case with tableware stored in it can be stored in other equipment or used. [Brief description of the drawings]
