Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an improvement in the support structure of wall-mounted furniture. More specifically, it relates to a structure for preventing the wall-mounted furniture from falling off, in which the hooks on the wall surface are visible, the workability of the installation process is improved, the stopper can be easily attached and detached, and the lifting of the wall-mounted furniture is restricted to reliably prevent the furniture from falling off.

Background Art

[0002] As is well known, as a design of storage furniture, there is not only a floor-standing type but also a wall-mounted type (wall-mounted furniture) that is supported in a state of being taken out laterally from the wall surface.

[0003] Conventionally, as a structure for supporting wall-mounted furniture, a structure has been disclosed in which a hook is fixed to a wall surface and the furniture is hooked on this hook (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0004] However, when installing furniture on a wall surface, it is necessary to align the positions of the hook fixed to the wall surface and the fixture on the furniture side. However, since the back side of the furniture becomes a blind spot, it inevitably becomes a groping operation relying on intuition, the installation work is troublesome, and if the hand is released without being properly hooked, the furniture may fall, resulting in damage to the furniture or injury to the operator.

[0005] In addition, it is necessary to take safety measures to prevent the furniture from falling off even when an upward lifting force is applied due to vibrations such as an earthquake. However, driving a pin into the wall surface after installing the furniture is difficult work and there is also a risk of injury.

Embodiments for Carrying out the Invention

[0015] Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 10. In the figures, what is indicated by reference numeral 1 is the back plate of the wall-mounted furniture, what is indicated by reference numeral 2 is the hook, what is indicated by reference numeral 3 is the latching tool, and what is indicated by reference numeral 4 is the stopper.

[0016] The present invention is an anti-drop structure of wall-mounted furniture adopted in wall-mounted furniture supported in a state of being carried out laterally from the wall surface W. In terms of configuration, first, a hook 2 having a claw portion 21 protruding vertically upward is fixed to the wall surface W by a fixing tool 22. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a hook 2 in which a claw portion 21 is integrally formed by bending a metal plate body can be adopted. Further, as the fixing tool 22, a pin or a screw having a head portion 23 or the like can be adopted, and the hook 2 can be fixed by driving it into the wall surface W.

[0017] Further, a hooking tool 3 is disposed on the wall-facing side of the back plate 1 of the wall-mounted furniture. In this embodiment, it is fixed to a recess formed by cutting through the surface of the back plate 1 to a predetermined depth. The number of hooking tools 3 to be disposed can be increased or decreased according to the size and weight of the wall-mounted furniture. Note that the enlarged views of FIGS. 2 and 3 show the back plate 1 to which the hooking tool 3 is fixed as viewed from the wall-facing side, and the enlarged view of FIG. 4 shows the direction of the wall surface W through the back plate 1. In this embodiment, the hooking tool 3 is a metal longitudinal plate body, and is bent into a predetermined shape so that the main body is located in the gap between the back plate 1 and the wall surface W without interference, and can be fixed to the back plate 1 by a fixing tool 31 such as a pin or a screw.

[0018] And the hooking tool 3 can be engaged with the claw portion 21 of the hook 2. Further, a through hole 11 is formed in the vicinity of the disposition portion of the hooking tool 3 on the back plate 1. In this embodiment, the through hole 11 is formed in a rectangular shape.

[0019] The specific mounting method is as follows: First, with the back plate 1 lifted, align the positions of the through hole 11 and the hook 2, bring the back plate 1 closer to the wall surface W, and insert the hooking tool 3 from above and place it between the wall surface W and the claw portion 21 (see FIG. 5). At this time, the hooking operation can be surely performed while visually observing the position of the fixing tool 22 fixed to the wall surface W through the through hole 11 (see FIG. 6).

[0020] And an elastically deformable stopper 4 can be fitted inside the through hole 11. In this embodiment, the stopper 4 can be formed in a bent plate shape in which a pair of surface portions 42 that expand in a tapered shape are connected by a connecting portion 43 (see FIG. 7). As a specific manufacturing method of the stopper 4, it can be manufactured at low cost by extruding a PVC (polyvinyl chloride) resin in a desired designed cross-sectional shape. By configuring in this way, since the stopper 4 can be fitted in a biased state inside the through hole 11 of the back plate 1, it is possible to make the stopper 4 difficult to come off.

[0021] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, an anti-slip portion 44 can be formed on the surface of the face portion 42 of the stopper 4, and this anti-slip portion 44 is pressed against the inner surface of the through-hole 11 to prevent lateral displacement. As the anti-slip portion 44, for example, protrusions or an adhesive sheet can be adopted. In the present embodiment, ridges in a direction orthogonal to the insertion and removal direction can be formed. Furthermore, as the cross-sectional shape of this ridge, it can be made into a shape inclined in a tapered shape that is easy to insert in the insertion direction and difficult to remove in the removal direction.

[0022] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a notch 12 is formed at the periphery of the through-hole 11 of the back plate 1, and a fingertip can be inserted into this notch 12 to pick and operate the stopper 4, thereby improving the workability of attaching and detaching the stopper 4.

[0023] Then, as shown in FIG. 8, in the engaged state of the hooking tool 3 and the claw portion 21 of the hook 2, the protruding portion 41 of the stopper 4 is inserted into the gap between the head portion 23 of the fixture 22 and the lower surface of the through-hole 11 of the back plate 1 (see FIGS. 9 and 10). By configuring it in this way, due to the presence of the protruding portion 41, it is possible to regulate the lifting of the back plate of the wall-mounted furniture and prevent it from falling off.

[0024] The present invention is generally configured as described above, but the present invention is by no means limited to the illustrated embodiment, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the claims. For example, the shapes and materials used for the hook 2, the hooking tool 3, and the stopper 4 can be appropriately changed, and they can be integrally formed or composed of joined separate members, and they belong to the technical scope of the present invention.
