Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] To provide a bookshelf equipped with a book stand, which can move the position of the book stand on the shelf board and store the book stand in a side board, thereby enabling the entire shelf board to be widely used. [Background technology]

[0002] When books and magazines are stored on shelves or bookshelves, they often fall over, and shelves that are equipped with bookstands from the start can prevent this. At the same time, there are times when you want to use the shelf more spaciously without the bookstand getting in the way. In these cases, a structure in which the bookstand can slide and be retracted onto the side panel will not get in the way and achieve this purpose. Sliding bookshelves have already been shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2002-65373 (Patent Document 1) and Utility Model Registration No. 3206332 (Patent Document 2). However, neither Patent Document 1 nor Patent Document 2 discloses a configuration that meets the above-mentioned purpose. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 2] Utility Model Registration No. 3206332 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] To provide a bookshelf with a book stand, which has a structure in which the book stand can be moved and which can be moved to a corner when the book stand is not needed, thereby enabling the shelf to be used widely. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] Claim1 The described bookshelf capable of storing bookstands is a shelf having a plurality of shelves within a bookshelf frame, on which bookstands are arranged so that they can slide along the shelves, and the bookshelf has a structure in which multiple bookstands of different sizes are arranged on one shelf, and small-sized bookstands can slip past large-sized bookstands.

[0007] Claim 2 The described bookshelf capable of storing bookstands is characterized in that the side frame plates that make up the bookshelf frame have recesses or cutout-shaped storage sections in which bookstands can be stored, and the bookstands are stored in the storage sections. These inventions solve the above problems. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] Claim 1 According to the described invention, it is possible to use both large and small bookstands, and to position each of the large and small bookshelves as desired.

[0009] Claim 2 According to the described invention, when the book stand is not in use, it can be completely stored in the side panels, so that it can also be used as a shelf. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0011] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention are as shown in the following examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. [Example]

[0012] A bookshelf S for storing books (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as bookshelf S) of the present invention will be described based on the illustrated embodiment. The main components of the bookshelf S of the present invention are a bookshelf frame 1, shelves 2, and a book stand 3. Each of these components will be described below.

[0013] First, the bookshelf frame 1 is, for example, a vertically elongated frame member when viewed from the front, and comprises a lower frame plate 11, side frame plates 12, an upper frame plate 13, and a rear frame plate 14. The side frame plates 12 are provided with recessed storage sections 15 for storing bookstands 3. Note that the storage sections 15 may not only be recessed, but also cut-out holes.

[0014] Next, the shelf board 2 will be described. The shelf board 2 is provided with a rail 21 extending across the entire width on the upper surface at the center in the depth direction. This rail 21 is provided with rail ribs 22, and the portion sandwiched between these rail ribs 22 forms a guide groove 23. The rail rib 22 has an upper rail rib 22a, an intermediate rail rib 22b, and a lower rail rib 22c, with the upper guide groove 23a formed between the upper rail rib 22a and the intermediate rail rib 22b, and the lower guide groove 23b formed between the intermediate rail rib 22b and the lower rail rib 22c. Note that the lower guide groove 23b is, for example, a dovetail groove shape.

[0015] Next, the book stand 3 will be explained. In the illustrated embodiment, a large-size bookstand 3A and a small-size bookstand 3B are combined as an example. Both have a pressure plate 31 as a main component, and the pressure plate 31 of the large-size bookstand 3A is provided with a passage hole 32. The small-size bookstand 3B is provided with a finger hole 33. Both the large-size bookstand 3A and the small-size bookstand 3B are provided with a slide portion 34 that is guided by the guide groove 23 of the rail 21. The slide portion 34A of the large-size bookstand 3A fits into the upper guide groove 23a, and the slide portion 34B of the small-size bookstand 23B fits into the lower guide groove 23a. The large and small bookstands (3A, 3B) of the present invention are as shown in the figure, but it is also possible to further subdivide the bookstands and create multiple bookstands rather than just two types. It is also possible to add a wall in the center of the bookshelf that can store bookstands and increase the number of bookstands that can be used.

[0016] To use such a bookshelf S, the book stand 3 is moved to an appropriate position depending on the type and size of the books, magazines, etc. to be stored (see Figs. 5, 6 and 7). In this case, in the present invention, the positions of the two different sized bookstands 3A and 3B can be interchanged, and the bookstands 3 can be stored in the storage section 15 by being brought close to the side frame plate 12.

[0017] The rails 21 create a long hole in the center of the shelf board 2 that extends in the width direction, but this long hole may cause inconvenience depending on the situation in which the shelf board 2 is used. Therefore, a rail cover 4 may be prepared separately to cover this hole. Furthermore, the shape of the bookstand 3 is not limited to that shown in the figure, but may be of various shapes and figures.

[0018] In this invention, two different sizes of bookstands (3A, 3B) are supported by an upper guide groove (23a) and a lower guide groove (23b) on the lower central rail (21) so that they can pass each other, but the supporting rails can also be made separate and independent, which increases the number of ways in which they can be passed each other.
