Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention facilitates the operation of changing the mirror angle of the side mirrors of a three-sided vanity cabinet, which has side mirrors on both sides of the central mirror that also serve as the front doors of the storage compartments on both sides. This relates to a bathroom vanity cabinet.

In the conventional vanity cabinet of this type, mirrors on both sides are connected to a central mirror so that they can each rotate freely.

Therefore, when in use, as shown in Figure 8, it is necessary to always operate the side mirrors with both hands to adjust the angle of the mirror surface, and in the case of a three-sided mirror with a wide frontage, it is difficult to perform this two-handed operation. When using a hairbrush, hair dryer, etc. to move hair from the side of the head to the back of the head, use your free hand to first rotate one armpit mirror, then switch to the hairbrush, etc., and use the other armpit mirror. In order to adjust the side mirror and grasp the outer edge that cannot be reached with a wide three-sided mirror, it was necessary to move the body to the right and left, which was inconvenient and took time to adjust the mirror angle. .

The object of the present invention is to improve the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks and provide a three-sided mirror vanity cabinet in which the angles of the mirrors on both sides can be adjusted with a single touch.

The gist of the configuration of this invention is that by simply moving the central mirror forward and backward, the mirrors on both sides change their angles symmetrically and move together, and when not in use, the storage compartments on both sides can be opened and closed by the mirrors on both sides. It is characterized by being provided so as to cover it.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the toilet cabinet of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view, and three mirrors are arranged in parallel on the same vertical plane and cover the front opening of the cabinet body 1. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the three-sided mirror in use, with the central mirror 5 retracted, the rear ends of the side mirrors 4, 4 symmetrically moving backward together with the central mirror 5 in a gradually contracting shape, and the front ends moving toward the center. The storage sections 3, 3 on the back are almost exposed.

In the figure, 3' and 3' indicate each shelf, and 6 is a pull protruding from the lower end of the central mirror for moving the central mirror back and forth.

Reference numerals 2, 2, 2', and 2' refer to guide rails provided oppositely to the upper surface of the bottom plate and the lower surface of the ceiling at the center of the cabinet body, respectively, and are provided for sliding the central mirror 5 back and forth. Reference numeral 8' denotes guide rails for sliding the side mirror frame, which are provided above and below the front opening of the storage section on both sides of the cabinet body, respectively.

FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line A-A in FIG. 3, and shows the mounting structure of the central mirror 5 and the guide rail 2, and the guide rail 2 has a structure consisting of two guide grooves.
A pair of rollers 10 mounted on a shaft 10' via a mounting frame 5' are fitted and guided on the left, right, upper and lower four corner end faces of the central mirror. This allows the central mirror to smoothly slide back and forth.
The mounting structures of the side mirror 4 and the center mirror 5, and the side mirror 4 and the guide rail 8 are shown in FIG. 5, FIG. 6 which is a sectional view taken along line B-B in the same figure, and FIG. To explain based on this, the armpit mirror frame 9 has each armpit mirror 4 installed vertically.
is rotatably connected to the central mirror 5 by upper and lower side mirror frame hinges 12 attached near the central mirror.

Each of the side mirror frames 9 has guide pins 11 protruding from the upper and lower edges closer to the outer ends of each of the side mirror frames 9.
The side mirror frame 9 is slidably inserted into the guide rails 8, 8 on the upper and lower front edges of the mirror, and the side mirror frame 9 is supported and connected to the central mirror so as to be interlocked with the guide pins.

Each armpit mirror 4 has a rotating shaft 14 fixed above and below the outer end of the guide pin 11, and its protrusion is pivotally attached to the armpit mirror frame 9 to connect and support the armpit mirror 4 so that it can be rotated to open and close. ing.

Reference numeral 4' denotes a knob for opening and closing the armpit mirror protruding from the lower end of each armpit mirror 4 near the center mirror.

Further, the rear edge 9' of the armpit mirror frame 9 is lengthened so that the upper end edge of the armpit mirror 4 comes into contact with the armpit mirror 4, so that it does not go around inside the armpit mirror frame.

In addition, in the figure, 4' is the side mirror knob, 13 is the mirror sash,
15 is a mirror back plate, and 16 is a lighting cover.

The functions of the toilet cabinet of the present invention having the above configuration are as follows.

When used as a three-sided mirror, by holding the handle 6 attached to the lower part of the central mirror 5 and pushing the central mirror 5 in the direction of the arrow in FIG. The central mirror 5 is moved easily and smoothly backward by each guide rail 2, 2', and as a result, the central mirror 5
Both side mirror frames 9 are pivotally connected to the left and right ends of the
The guide pins 11 of each outer end of the frame 9 move along the guide rails 8, 8 at the front end while changing the angle, so that each of the side mirrors 4, 9 held by the frames 9,
4 also changes direction. That is, the angles of the side mirrors 4, 4 change equally so that they face each other symmetrically with respect to the central mirror 5.

Furthermore, the armpit mirrors 4, 4 are pivoted at one point by the rotation shaft 14 located on the outside of the armpit mirror frames 9, 9, so that they are free to rotate relative to the armpit mirror frames 9, 9. is obtained. Therefore, when the central mirror 5 is pulled out to the front end, the side mirrors can be opened outward as shown by the dashed line in FIG. Moreover, for inward rotation, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the rear edges 9' of the armpit mirror frames 9, 9 are lengthened, so that the armpit mirrors 4, 4 touch and move inward independently. It does not rotate, and rotates together with the side mirror frame only when the central mirror 5 is pushed rearward.

Also, on the back side of both side mirrors, there are storage shelves that can store cosmetics, tools, and various other small items.Each side mirror is configured to double as the front door of the storage shelf, and the central mirror can be operated. Since the side mirror can be opened and closed without having to do so, it is a simple and highly useful device that allows you to take in and take out stored items.

As described above, in the toilet cabinet of the present invention, by simply moving the central mirror 5 back and forth, the left and right side mirrors 4, 4 are linked to change the angle equally, so it is a three-sided mirror with a wide frontage that is difficult to reach with both hands. Even if the side mirror is located in front of the central mirror, the angle of the side mirror can be easily adjusted with one hand, making it extremely convenient.
