Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a knockdown item storage apparatus, and more particularly to a magnetically attached knockdown item storage apparatus that can be detachably attached to a magnetic wall surface by magnetic attraction, and is particularly suitable for use with large or medium-sized furniture. [Background technology]
[0002] As an example of a magnetic storage device, Patent Document 1 gives an example of a magnetic tool in which a magnetic sheet is adhered to the back of a storage item such as a bookshelf, storage box, or hanging shelf. Such a magnetic tool can be attached and detached to a magnetic wall surface by the magnetic force of the magnetic sheet, and can be repositioned or easily attached to a different storage item without using a tool such as a screwdriver.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3207754 DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] The magnetic sheet attached to the magnetic tool described above is flexible, so when it is removed from a magnetically attached state to a magnetic wall, it can be removed, for example, by rolling up one edge and gradually peeling it off. However, in the case of a magnetic tool in which a magnetic sheet is fixed to the back of each storage item, the magnetic sheet cannot be deformed, so when removing it, it must be peeled off in one go in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic wall, or by applying force that rotates the magnetic sheet around one of its four sides.
[0005] In any case, there is no problem if the magnetic sheet is a small item that is not too large, but if it is something that is over 20 cm square, for example, a fairly strong force is required, even if only for a moment. Furthermore, it is necessary to provide a magnetic sheet for each of a plurality of storage items, which increases the cost of the product.
[0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and aims to provide an assembly type article storage device that can be removed from a magnetic wall surface with a relatively small force and that can suppress an increase in cost. [Means for solving the problem]

[0019] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] [First embodiment] FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of an assembly type item storage device 10 of the first embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. In these figures, including some of the figures described below, the three axes of the Cartesian coordinate system are designated as X, Y, and Z, and the magnetic wall surface W is perpendicular to the XY plane and parallel to the ZX plane. The scales of the figures are not necessarily accurate, and some elements are depicted merely to facilitate understanding of the present invention. Components that are identical or symmetrical on the left and right or top and bottom are designated by the same reference numerals.
[0021] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the knockdown item storage device 10 includes a fixed plate 1 and storage items 4, and is detachably attached to a magnetic wall surface W by a magnetic sheet 21 attached to the fixed plate 1. The fixed plate 1 and storage items 4 can be separated without tools such as a screwdriver. No tools are required for assembly either.
[0022] Next, each of the components of the knockdown item storage device 10 will be described in detail. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the fixing plate 1, where (a) shows the front side and (b) shows the back side. Fig. 4 is a two-sided view of the magnetic sheet 21, where (a) shows a front view and (b) shows a side view. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the storage item 4, where (a) shows the front side and (b) shows an exploded view. Fig. 6 is a diagram showing a modified example of the storage item 4, where (a) shows a perspective view and (b) shows a side view.
[0023] As shown in FIG. 3, the fixed plate 1 includes a substrate 11 and a magnet sheet 21, and is flexible when the substrate 11 and the magnet sheet 21 are combined together. The substrate 11 is made of a thin rectangular metal plate having a thickness of about 0.1 mm to 2 mm, and has a magnet sheet 21 fixed to one surface P1 and a support frame 12 on the other surface P2. The support frame 12 has a generally U-shape in plan view, and defines an internal space S1 between itself and the surface P2. The internal space S1 is large enough to accommodate the storage items 4 in a usable manner.
[0024] Specifically, such a support frame 12 includes a first bar 121 and a second bar 122, as shown in FIG. The first bars 121 are two elongated plates that protrude symmetrically in the normal direction of the plane P2 from the upper left and right ends of the base plate 11. The first bars 121 are sized to fit and lock onto the hooks 44 (see FIG. 5) of the storage item 4. The second bar 122 is a long plate that connects the two left and right first bars 121 at their tip apexes. The provision of the second bar 122 prevents the two left and right first bars 121, 121 from individually expanding or contracting due to their elasticity. It also prevents the storage items 4 stored in the internal space S1 from slipping out forward. Such a support frame 12 is produced, for example, by bending a single, long, thin metal plate so that it forms an approximately U-shape when viewed from above, and then bending both ends of the plate so that it forms an L-shape when viewed from above. Then, by welding the L-shaped surfaces to both upper left and right ends of surface P2, a framed substrate 11 is obtained.
[0025] The magnet sheet 21 is a flexible sheet-like magnet with an area slightly smaller than that of the substrate 11 and a thickness of 0.2 mm to 5 mm, and is a double-sided multi-pole magnetized type as shown in Fig. 4. That is, on each of the front and back surfaces, magnetic poles 22, 23 (N pole and S pole) of a constant width and different polarities are formed alternately in stripes at equal intervals, forming magnetized lines 24X at a constant pitch.
[0026] Such a magnet sheet 21 is produced by forming a mixture of fine powder of hard magnetic material and a small amount of organic polymer elastomer as a binder into a sheet by a molding method such as rolling or extrusion, and then magnetizing the surface. In order to obtain sufficient magnetic attraction, it is preferable to use an anisotropic hard magnetic material. The magnet sheet 21 is fixed to the substrate 11, and if the substrate 11 has the properties of a soft magnetic material, a yoke effect is generated, and a larger magnetic flux density is generated on the magnetic surface of the magnet sheet 21 than when the magnet sheet 21 is alone, resulting in a larger magnetic attraction force. Examples of the thin metal plate having soft magnetic properties include steel, ferritic stainless steel, etc. It is also possible to use a synthetic resin such as plastic instead of metal.
[0027] The thickness of the magnet sheet 21 and the substrate 11 is set within the above range for the following reason: to ensure that the fixing plate 1, i.e., the combination of the substrate 11 and the magnet sheet 21, has adequate flexibility and magnetic attraction to the magnetic wall surface W. More specifically, if the thickness of the magnet sheet 21 exceeds 5 mm, it becomes difficult to ensure flexibility, and if it is less than 0.2 mm, sufficient magnetic attraction cannot be expected. Furthermore, if the thickness of the substrate 11 exceeds 2 mm, it becomes difficult to ensure flexibility and the weight increases unnecessarily, and if it is less than 0.1 mm, a sufficient yoke effect cannot be expected.
[0028] As shown in Fig. 5(a), the storage item 4 is a hollow box having an outer frame wall that is roughly shaped like a square when viewed in the Y direction. Specifically, it has a top panel 41, side panels 42, and a bottom panel 43, and is provided with long hooks 44 that extend in the Y direction at the top left and right sides. The hooks 44 are shaped to have a recessed space S2 with a U-shaped cross section between the top panel 41 and the side panels 42.
[0029] Such a storage item 4 can be obtained, for example, by welding together a top plate 41, which is made by bending claw portions 441 for forming hooks 44 on both the left and right ends of a single, long, thin metal plate, as shown in the upper diagram of Figure 5(b), and a U-shaped frame body, which is made by bending two longitudinally symmetrical points of a single, long, thin metal plate 90 degrees in the same direction to form a bottom plate 43 and side plates 42 standing on both the left and right sides of the bottom plate 43, as shown in the lower diagram.
[0030] 6, by providing rising portions 45 from the bottom plate 43, it is possible to increase the rigidity and strength of the bottom plate 43. This configuration is particularly effective for storing wide and large items.
[0031] The knockdown item storage device 10 having the above-described components is designed to be attached by magnetic attraction to a magnetic wall W. The magnetic wall W is made of a wall material such as a thin foil or sheet steel having a thickness of about 0.1 mm to 1 mm with wallpaper attached to one side.
[0032] Next, the assembly procedure for the knockdown item storage device 10 will be described. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing the assembly procedure of the knockdown item storage device 10, and FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of how to remove the fixing plate 1. As shown in FIG.
[0033] First, as shown in FIG. 7(a), the fixed plate 1 is attached to the magnetic wall surface W. To attach the plate, hold the left and right ends of the fixed plate 1 with your left and right hands, respectively, with the magnetic surface of the magnetic sheet 21 facing the magnetic wall surface W, and position the upper edge of the base plate 11 so that it is horizontal. Then, place the magnetic sheet 21 against the magnetic wall surface W to magnetically attach it. Note that a bubble level may be used to ensure an accurate horizontal position. This work is made easier if the base of the bubble is placed, for example, on the top of the support frame 12. If the plate is attached off-horizontally, remove the fixed plate 1, readjust the angle, and then reattach it.
[0034] Next, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the storage item 4 is inserted downward in the Z1 direction into the space S1 formed by the support frame 12 from above. The hooks 44, 44 of the storage item 4 are then fitted into the first bars 121, 121 of the support frame 12. In this state, the storage item 4 is attached to the magnetic wall surface W via the fixing plate 1, and functions as a storage box with an open front, as shown in FIG. 7(c). In this way, the collapsible item storage device 10 does not require any tools to be attached to or assembled on the magnetic wall surface W.
[0035] Disassembly is performed in the reverse order of assembly, and no tools are required.
[0036] Here, since the substrate 11 and the magnetic sheet 21 are flexible when combined, when removing the fixed plate 1, as shown in Figure 8(a), by pulling the lower end corner T1 of the substrate 11 toward you and rolling it up, the magnetic sheet 21 magnetically attached to the magnetic wall surface W can be peeled off from the end corner, and the entire fixed plate 1 can be removed from the magnetic wall surface W. 8(b), the magnet sheet 21 can be peeled off by rolling up any of the four sides, so it can be peeled off with little force. That is, by grasping either end of the first bar 121 on the substrate 11 and pulling it in the forward direction R1 in a direction opposite to the grasping side, the magnet sheet 21 can be peeled off and removed from one end.
[0037] Normally, the entire magnetic sheet attached to the magnetic wall W is pulled toward you to remove it, which requires a lot of force and makes it difficult to remove, but in this embodiment, the substrate 11 and magnetic sheet 21 are flexible when combined, and can be removed from the magnetic wall W using their elasticity, so they can be peeled off with little force. In this way, instead of removing it all at once with a strong force, it can be peeled off gradually from the edge with a weak force, making it easy for even children or women with relatively weak strength to remove it.
[0038] Next, a modified knockdown item storage device 10A will be described. 9 is a perspective view showing a modified assembly-type item storage device 10A. The assembly-type item storage device 10A has storage items 4A instead of the storage items 4 of the assembly-type item storage device 10. The rest of the configuration is the same as that of the assembly-type item storage device 10, and the same components are given the same reference numerals and their explanations are omitted.
[0039] 10(a), storage item 4A is a rectangular steel shelf board with hooks 44A1 on the left and right short sides and hook 44A2 on the long side. Hooks 44A1, 44A1 are configured to fit and lock onto first bars 121, 121, and hook 44A2 is configured to fit and lock onto second bar 122.
[0040] Such a storage item 4A can be obtained, for example, as shown in Figure 10(b), by cutting notches in the four corners of a single rectangular thin metal plate and bending it 90 degrees in the same direction along the hook-forming lines F on the four sides.
[0041] Moreover, instead of storage item 4A, storage item 4B shown in Fig. 11 can be used. Fig. 11 shows a modified storage item 4B, with (a) showing a front view and (b) showing a bottom view. Storage item 4B is a shelf board made of wood or synthetic resin, for example, and has an upper body 41B with a large area and a lower body 42B with a small area, with a right-angled step 44B at the boundary between them. Step 44B essentially functions as a hook.
[0042] The storage item 4B is fitted and locked so that the inner surface of its step 44B is flush with the outer surfaces of the first bar 121 and second bar 122 of the support frame 12. To assemble, the storage item 4B is inserted from above into the space S1 formed by the support frame 12. The step 44B of the storage item is then fitted and locked into the first bar 121, 121 and second bar 122 of the support frame 12, respectively. In this state, the storage item 4B functions as a shelf board with its upper surface serving as a platform.
[0043] If the horizontal stand (item placement stand) for the storage items is made of steel or ferritic stainless steel, it may be divided by an L-shaped partition board with a magnetic sheet attached to the underside of the bottom.
[0044] In the above embodiment, the fixed plate 1 is attached to the magnetic wall W with the frame 12 facing upward, but it can also be used with the frame 12 facing downward. This method is particularly effective when applied to the modified storage items 4A and 4B.
[0045] As shown in the modified example, the collapsible item storage device 10 offers a variety of storage items, improving functionality and ease of use. Furthermore, because it is detachable from the magnetic wall W, it is easy to add or rearrange storage items above, below, left, or right, allowing users to create combinations that meet their needs. Furthermore, by using a product structure that is divided into parts rather than a single unit, manufacturing costs can be reduced, thereby keeping the sales price down.

Like the fixing plate 1H of the knockdown item storage device 10H of the eighth embodiment, the fixing plate 1V has a hook receiver 121V on one long side of the rectangle, but unlike the hook receiver 121H of the fixing plate 1H, this hook receiver 121V has a margin (notch) 124V on both the left and right sides. This margin 124V is an area for avoiding interference with the hook 44V when a storage item 4V is inserted from above. In addition, a through hole 123V is provided on the other long side. This through hole 123V is a hole for passing the hook-shaped portion of the connecting member 3 through. In addition, the substrate of the fixing plate 1V is made of magnetic metal.
[0055] The connecting member 3 is a member for connecting the fixing plates 1V arranged in two mirror images, one above the other, with the through holes 123V facing each other, and is roughly C-shaped (or roughly S-shaped) with hooks that are symmetrical above and below. It is preferably made of a flexible material, such as metal or resin. It can also be obtained by molding a wire. The support bar 5 is a member that is placed on the hook receiver 121V of the fixed plate 1V to support the bottom of the hook 44V of the storage item 4V, and has a long, rectangular bar body 51 and a magnetic sheet 52 attached to the back surface of the bar body 51. The length of the support bar 5 is equal to the length of the long side of the fixed plate 1V.
[0056] Next, a method for assembling the knockdown item storage device 10V will be described. 21 and 22 are diagrams showing the procedure for assembling the knockdown item storage apparatus 10V of the ninth embodiment.
[0057] First, as shown in FIG. 21(a), two fixing plates 1V are attached to the magnetic wall surface in a mirror image arrangement in two upper and lower stages so that the sides of the through holes 123V face each other. Specifically, the upper fixing plate 1V is attached to the magnetic wall surface with the hook receiver 121V facing up, and the lower fixing plate 1V is attached to the magnetic wall surface directly below the upper fixing plate 1V with the hook receiver 121V facing down and with a gap between it and the upper fixing plate 1V. Here, the support bar 5 is attached in advance to the hook receiver 121V of the lower fixing plate 1V. The support bar 5 is equipped with a magnetic sheet 52, so it can be easily attached to and detached from the fixing plate 1V, which is made primarily of magnetic metal.
[0058] Next, as shown in FIG. 21(b), the hook-shaped portions of the connecting material 3 are passed through the through-holes 123V of the upper fixing plate 1V and the through-holes 123V of the lower fixing plate 1V, thereby connecting the upper and lower fixing plates 1V, 1V.
[0059] Next, as shown in Figure 22, a storage item 4V is placed above two upper and lower fixed plates 1V, 1V attached to the magnetic wall while connected by connecting material 3, and then the storage item 4V is moved downward as shown by the arrow, and the hooks 44V, 44V on both the left and right sides of the storage item 4V are passed through the left and right sides of the fixed plates 1V, 1V, so that the storage item 4V is dropped down to the support bar 5 attached to the hook receiver 121V of the lower fixed plate 1V, and the bottoms of the hooks 44V, 44V are abutted against the support bar 5, thereby forming the assembly type item storage device 10V shown in Figure 19. The load of the storage item 4V is supported by the support bar 5. Here, the support bar 5 is integrated with the lower fixed plate 1V, and the lower fixed plate 1V is further connected to the upper fixed plate 1V by the connecting member 3, so that the load acting on the lower fixed plate 1V is also shared by the upper fixed plate 1V.
[0060] In the ninth embodiment of the collapsible item storage device 10V, storage items that are half the height of the storage item 4V can be used, in which case the device can be shaped like the eighth embodiment of the collapsible item storage device 10H, while by using two fixing plates of the same configuration, it is also possible to fix large storage items such as the storage item 4V.
[0061] Tenth Embodiment FIG. 23 is an external perspective view of an assembly-type item storage apparatus 10J of the tenth embodiment, and FIG. 24 is an exploded perspective view of the assembly-type item storage apparatus 10J of the tenth embodiment. As shown in Figure 23, the collapsible item storage device 10J comprises two fixed plates 1J, a connecting material 3 connecting the two fixed plates 1J together, and a storage item 4J, and is removably attached to a magnetic wall surface by a magnetic sheet 21 provided on the fixed plate 1J.
[0062] As shown in FIG. 24, the storage item 4J has the same configuration as the storage item 4V of the knockdown item storage device 10V of the ninth embodiment, and includes hooks 44J on both the left and right sides. The fixed plate 1J has a pair of left and right sliding latches 6 instead of the hook receivers 121V in the fixed plate 1V of the knockdown item storage device 10V of the ninth embodiment. The sliding latch 6 has an outer tube 61 and an inner tube 62 slidably housed within the outer tube 61. The inner tube 62 can be selectively slid between a storage position P1 in which it is housed in the outer tube 61 and a protruding position P2 in which it protrudes from the outer tube 61. This sliding can be performed, for example, by using a knob (not shown) provided on the inner tube 62. At the protruding position P2, a margin 124J is not formed, and at the storage position P1, a margin 124J is formed. The margin 124J is an area for preventing interference with the hook 44J when a storage item 4J is inserted from above. A through-hole 123J is provided on the other long side.
[0063] Next, a method for assembling the knockdown item storage device 10J will be described. 25 and 26 are diagrams showing the procedure for assembling an assembly type article storage apparatus 10J of the tenth embodiment.
[0064] First, as shown in FIG. 25(a), two fixing plates 1J are attached to the magnetic wall surface in a mirror image arrangement in two upper and lower stages so that the sides of the through holes 123J face each other. Specifically, the upper fixed plate 1J is attached to the magnetic wall surface with the sliding latch 6 facing up, and the lower fixed plate 1J is attached to the magnetic wall surface directly below the upper fixed plate 1J with the sliding latch 6 facing down and with a gap between it and the upper fixed plate 1J. At this point, the inner cylinder 62 of the sliding latch 6 on each of the upper and lower fixed plates 1J may be in either the retracted position P1 or the protruding position P2.
[0065] 25(b), the hook-shaped portions of the connecting member 3 are passed through the through-holes 123J of the upper and lower fixed plates 1J to connect the upper and lower fixed plates 1J, 1J. Next, the inner cylinder 62 of the sliding latch 6 on the upper fixed plate 1J is set to the stored position P1, and the inner cylinder 62 of the sliding latch 6 on the lower fixed plate 1J is set to the protruding position P2.
[0066] Next, as shown in Figure 26, a storage item 4J is placed above two upper and lower fixed plates 1J, 1J that are connected by connecting material 3 and attached to the magnetic wall surface, and then the storage item 4J is moved downward as shown by the arrow, and the hooks 44J, 44J on both the left and right sides of the fixed plates 1J, 1J are passed through the left and right sides of the storage item 4J, so that the storage item 4J is dropped down to the sliding latch 6, and the bottoms of the hooks 44J, 44J are abutted against the inner tube 62, thereby forming the shape of the assembly type item storage device 10J shown in Figure 23.
[0067] The knockdown item storage apparatus 10J of the tenth embodiment provides the same effects as the knockdown item storage apparatus 10V of the ninth embodiment.
[0068] Eleventh Embodiment FIG. 27 is an external perspective view of a knockdown item storage apparatus 10K according to the eleventh embodiment, and FIG. 28 is an exploded perspective view of the knockdown item storage apparatus 10K according to the tenth embodiment. As shown in FIG. 27, the knockdown item storage device 10K comprises two fixing plates 1K and storage items 4K, and is detachably attached to a magnetic wall surface by means of magnet sheets 21 provided on each fixing plate 1K.
[0069] As shown in Figure 28, storage item 4K differs from storage item 4V (see Figure 22) of knockdown item storage device 10V of the ninth embodiment in the following respects: It has hooks on both the left and right sides, and these hooks have notches 45K in the range of 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 of the overall height measured from the bottom of storage item 4K. In other words, it has hook 44K1 in the upper half and hook 44K2 below that is half the height of hook 44K1. The fixed plate 1K differs from the fixed plate 1H (see FIG. 18) of the knockdown item storage device 10H of the eighth embodiment in the following respect: The fixed plate 1K has a notch 126K on each of the left and right sides thereof, located above half the total height measured from the bottom.
[0070] Next, a method for assembling the knockdown item storage apparatus 10K will be described. 29 and 30 are diagrams showing the procedure for assembling the knockdown item storage apparatus 10K of the eleventh embodiment.
[0071] First, as shown in Fig. 29(a), two fixed plates 1K are attached to the magnetic wall surface in two tiers, one above the other, with the hook receivers 121K at the bottom. Next, as shown in Fig. 29(b), a storage item 4K is placed so that its hook 44K2 is at the same height as the notch 126K of the lower fixed plate 1K, and then, while maintaining this height, it is moved toward the fixed plate 1K as shown by the arrow.
[0072] Next, the storage item 4K is moved downward as shown by the arrow in Figure 30, and the hooks 44K2 of the storage item 4K are passed through both the left and right sides of the lower fixing plate 1K, and the hooks 44K1 are passed through both the left and right sides of the upper fixing plate 1K, so that the storage item 4K is dropped down to the hook receiver 121K of the lower fixing plate 1K, and the bottom of the hook 44K2 is brought into contact with the hook receiver 121K, thereby forming the assembly type item storage device 10V shown in Figure 27.
[0073] The weight of the storage item 4K is supported by the hook receiver 121K of the lower fixing plate 1K. Here, since the upper fixing plate 1K is overlapped on the lower fixing plate 1K, the load acting on the lower fixing plate 1K is also shared by the upper fixing plate 1K.
[0074] [Twelfth embodiment] FIG. 31 is a perspective view of the exterior of an assembly type item storage device 10L of the twelfth embodiment, where (a) shows an assembly diagram and (b) shows the assembly procedure. As shown in (a), the knockdown item storage device 10L comprises two fixing plates 1L and storage items 4L, and is detachably attached to a magnetic wall surface by means of a magnetic sheet 21 provided on each fixing plate 1L. The storage item 4L differs from the storage item 4H of the knockdown item storage device 10H of the eighth embodiment (see FIG. 18) in that it is twice as wide. The fixed plate 1L is similar to the fixed plate 1H (see FIG. 18) of the knockdown item storage apparatus 10H of the eighth embodiment. When assembling, as shown in (b), the storage item 4L is placed directly above the two fixing plates 1L that are magnetically attached side by side to the magnetic wall surface without any gaps, and then moved downward as shown by the arrow, and the storage item 4L is dropped down to the hook receiver 121L by passing the left and right ends of the fixing plate 1L through both hooks 44L of the storage item 4L.
[0075] Thirteenth Embodiment FIG. 32 is a perspective view of the exterior of an assembly type article storage device 10M of the thirteenth embodiment, where (a) shows an assembly diagram and (b) shows the assembly procedure. As shown in (a), the knockdown item storage device 10M comprises two fixing plates 1M and storage items 4M, and is detachably attached to a magnetic wall surface by magnet sheets 21 provided on each fixing plate 1M. The storage item 4M differs from the storage item 4L of the knockdown item storage device 10L of the twelfth embodiment in that its width is approximately 1.3 times larger (see FIG. 31). The fixed plate 1M is similar to the fixed plate 1L (see FIG. 31) of the knockdown item storage apparatus 10L of the twelfth embodiment. When assembling, as shown in (b), the storage item 4M is placed directly above the two fixing plates 1M that are magnetically attached side by side to the magnetic wall with a gap between them, and then moved downward as shown by the arrow, and the storage item 4M is dropped down to the hook receiver 121M by passing the left and right ends of the fixing plates 1M through both hooks 44M of the storage item 4M.
[0076] In the twelfth and thirteenth embodiments, the fixing plates are arranged side by side on the left and right and magnetically attached, so that the same fixing plate can accommodate wide storage items. Unlike configurations in which the fixing plates are arranged one above the other, the weight of the storage items is shared and supported by the hook receivers on the left and right fixing plates, and no connecting material is required.
[0077] In the fifth, eighth and ninth embodiments described above, when the back of the storage item is not closed, the side panels are thin and will sag left and right when used alone, but by connecting them to the fixed plate, the front panel of the fixed plate acts as the back panel for the storage item, thereby reducing sagging left and right.
[0078] [Fourteenth embodiment] A fourteenth embodiment of the present invention will now be described. In the fourteenth embodiment, a wall magnetic sheet made of a magnetic sheet is used as the magnetic wall W. This wall magnetic sheet is attached so that the magnetization lines are parallel to the horizontal direction. The magnetization lines are the imaginary boundaries between one magnetic pole that appears on the surface of a multi-pole magnetized magnetic sheet and the opposite poles on either side of it. In reality, these are the areas that turn white when a "Magneviewer" (a registered trademark of Nichirei Magnet Corporation), a measuring tool that can visually observe magnetic patterns, is applied to the sheet, and these are areas where the magnetic field in the vertical direction on the sheet surface is extremely weak or zero. The magnet sheet 21 of the fixed portion 1 shown in the first embodiment is selected to have magnetized lines at the same pitch as the wall magnet sheet.
[0079] When the magnet sheet 21 is attached to the magnetic wall surface W so that the magnetization lines of the magnet sheet 21 are approximately horizontal, the opposite poles of the striped magnetic poles of the magnet sheet 21 and the wall magnet sheet are magnetically attached to each other. This allows the magnet sheet 21 to be fixed to the magnetic wall surface W in a straight state without tilting from the horizontal direction. Therefore, the labor required to maintain the horizontal state during installation as shown in Figure 7(a) is reduced. Moreover, since opposite poles are magnetically attracted to each other over the entire magnetic surface of the magnet sheet 21, the fixing is performed with a stronger magnetic force than in the first embodiment.
[0080] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the embodiments disclosed above are merely examples, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. The scope of the present invention is defined by the claims, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope of the claims. In other words, the configuration, structure, shape, size, number, material, arrangement, etc. of each part or the entirety of each knockdown storage device can be changed as appropriate in accordance with the gist of the present invention. [Industrial Applicability]
[0081] It can be widely used as an assembly-type storage device that can be magnetically attached to a magnetic wall. [Explanation of symbols]
