Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is applicable to buildings such as houses where a sanitary room, which is a washing and undressing room connected to a washing room, is provided on the second floor, and a utility room is provided on the first floor. This is related to the improvement of the laundry chute located between the sanitary room and the utility room, and there is no need to take up duct space on the wall, increasing the degree of freedom in using the wall, and making the indoor space wider and less compressed. To provide a laundry chute which can maintain a sense of cleanliness in a room by eliminating the sense of cleanliness and making it difficult to distinguish the installation of the laundry chute from its appearance.

Generally, in houses where a sanitizing room is installed on the second floor, as shown in Fig.
A dedicated laundry chute D is often installed along the wall surface C between the two.

In the structure shown in Fig. 2, the laundry chute D is visually recognizable at a glance and has a poor appearance, and the laundry chute D has only a single function in the sanitary room A and the utility room B. A large amount of space is devoted to
It is difficult to make effective use of space, and since the laundry chute D is placed on the wall C, the degree of freedom in arranging mirrors and other items is limited, and the balance with other equipment is also disrupted. Not only is there a laundry chute, but the chute opening E opens into the room, which detracts from the aesthetics of the design.The presence of the laundry chute, which can be seen at a glance, impedes the cleanliness of sanitary room A and utility room B. There were some flaws that affected the feel of the product.

The present invention provides a laundry chute free from the above-mentioned drawbacks by adopting the configuration described in the claims of the utility model registration.

The configuration of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 will be described below.

In FIG. 1, a hanging cabinet 5 is installed on the wall 4 of the utility room 3 on the first floor, which is located directly below the vanity 2 located in the sanitary room 1 on the second floor.
A chute opening 6 is opened at the bottom of the vanity 2, and a laundry storage 7 is provided in a part of the hanging cabinet 5.

A duct 8 communicating with the aforementioned chute opening 6
communicates with the storage 7 through a space 11 between the floor 9 on the second floor and the ceiling 10 on the first floor.

The above-mentioned chute opening 6, duct 8, and storage 7 constitute the laundry chute of the present invention.

In the chute opening 6 at the bottom of the washstand 2,
A door 12 of the same quality as the door of the storage room in the other part of the washstand 2 is attached so as to be openable and closable, and the chute opening 6 is narrowed with blocking plates 13 and 14 to prevent children from falling. On the other hand, there is also a laundry outlet of the storage 7 of the hanging cabinet 5.
A door 15 of the same quality as the doors of other storage chambers is attached so as to be openable and closable.

In the laundry chute having the above structure, the door 12 is opened and laundry is thrown in as shown by arrow A, stored in the storage 7, and the door 15 is opened as needed to take it out.

The present invention has the configuration described above, and since the laundry chute is not installed in a protruding state on the walls of the sanitary room and utility room, it is not possible to attach the laundry chute to the wall surface such as a sanitary cabinet, shelf, mirror, etc. Since the degree of freedom in mounting can be increased, and the area occupied by the laundry chute is eliminated, the indoor space of a relatively narrow sanitary room or utility room can be made to feel spacious and can have effects such as being able to eliminate a feeling of pressure.

In addition, the lower part of the vanity in the sanitary room and the storage in the hanging cabinet on the wall of the utility room directly below it will be connected to the space between the second floor floor and the first floor ceiling. Since the laundry chute is formed by the duct installed in the duct, it is difficult to distinguish the installation of the laundry chute from the exterior of the indoor equipment. Since it can be easily concealed with a cloth, etc., it also has the effect of maintaining the cleanliness of the sanitary room and the utility room.
