Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial field of application> The present invention relates to a riser board mounting structure for furniture, etc., and more specifically, to easily attach and detach a riser board provided in a riser section at the bottom of a furniture body. Regarding the structure that can be used.

<Prior art> When attaching a long riser board that spans both sides of the furniture to the front of the furniture body, such as kitchen furniture, washstands, and other unit furniture, it is generally done to secure it to the edge of the side board using nails, screws, etc. I was worried. In this case, not only does the design deteriorate as fixed parts such as nails and screws appear on the surface, but also it is extremely difficult to remove the riser once it is installed, and it is difficult to remove the riser once it has been installed. It is unsanitary because it is not possible to clean dust and dust, and it is not possible to deal with the need to adjust the height between the furniture body and the floor surface. Furthermore, the risers are the most severely damaged when used as furniture, and because they are virtually impossible to remove or replace, they become unsightly after years of use.

In view of these drawbacks, clamping metal fittings are installed on the back side of baseboards for furniture, etc. that have legs suspended at key points on the bottom surface.
A structure has been proposed in which the baseboard is elastically clamped to the legs of furniture using clamping metal fittings (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58992/1983). According to this prior art, the baseboard is removably attached to the legs, so the above-mentioned drawbacks are eliminated.

<Problem to be solved by the invention> According to this conventional technology, when the baseboard is damaged during the use of furniture and needs to be replaced, the old baseboard is removed and the clamping metal fittings are attached to the back of the new baseboard. This involved fixing the clamps and fitting them onto the legs, but this was actually quite a difficult task as the fixing position of the clamping metal fittings had to correspond strictly to the position of the legs. .

<Means for Solving the Problems> The present invention was devised to solve the problems in the prior art described above, and in the case where a riser board is attached to the back side of the main body bottom plate in the lower riser part of the furniture main body, A connecting fitting having a first enlarged portion and a second enlarged portion at both ends is used, and a first engaging member that receives the first enlarged portion of the connecting fitting is attached to the side plate of the riser, and the first engaging member of the connecting fitting has a first enlarged portion and a second enlarged portion at both ends. A second engaging member having a concave portion having a shape corresponding to the second enlarged portion and slidable laterally while receiving the second enlarged portion is disposed in a rail shape over substantially the entire width of the riser. , characterized in that the riser board is detachably attached by engaging the first and second engaging members with the first engaging member and the second engaging member, respectively, This is a structure for mounting risers on furniture, etc. The connecting fitting is preferably dumbbell-shaped with spherical bulges at both ends.

<Function> When attaching the riser board to the riser part at the bottom of the furniture main body, a connecting metal fitting having enlarged parts at both ends is used, and an engaging fitting that receives one enlarged part is fixed to the lower part of the furniture side plate, and the other part is fixed to the lower part of the furniture side plate. By placing a connecting rail on the riser that slidably receives the large part of the
Riser boards can be attached removably.
The engagement fitting is made of an elastic body, and can receive the enlarged portion of one of the connecting fittings through its elastic deformation, and once received, the enlarged portion is not easily removed.

<Example> An example in which the present invention is applied to a kitchen furniture sink will be described below based on the accompanying drawings.

The sink in this embodiment has a counter 3 with a sink 1, a cooking surface 2, etc. provided on the upper part, and an article storage section with shelves 4 and drawers appropriately installed inside the counter 3 is provided below the counter 3. . A door or a door 5 is attached to the front of the article storage section so as to be openable and closable as necessary, forming a sink main body 6. A riser portion 7 is provided at the lowermost front end of the sink body 6.

Inside the riser 7, an engaging metal fitting 10 having a shape as shown in FIG. Fixed. On the other hand, an engagement rail 12 having a spherical recess at an arbitrary location on the back side of the riser board 11 attached to close the riser 7 is fixed by suitable fixing means (not shown) such as nails or screws. be done. Then, the riser plate 11 to which the engagement rail 12 is fixed is connected to the side plate 8 to which the engagement fitting 10 is fixed.
When attaching to the connector, a dumbbell-shaped connecting fitting 13 having spherical enlarged portions at both ends is used.
That is, first, one spherical end of the connecting fitting 13 is inserted into the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12 from the side end side of the riser plate 11, and is slid to an appropriate position. Since the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12 has a slightly larger diameter than the spherical tip of the connecting fitting 13, the spherical tip can slide smoothly in the lateral direction when fitted into the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12. can be moved. Next, by pressing the other spherical tip of the connecting fitting 13 protruding from the engagement rail 12 against the engagement fitting 10, the front end opening expands due to elastic deformation to receive the spherical tip inside. . After receiving the tip spherical portion inside, the front end side opening of the engaging metal fitting 10 is restored, so that the connecting metal fitting 13 is prevented from falling off. In addition, when installing the riser board 11, use the engagement fittings 1.
The connecting fitting 13 is dropped into the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12 from above to receive the spherical end of one of the connecting fittings 13, and then the spherical end of the other protruding end is accommodated in the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12 from its side end. It's good to wear.

Riser board 11 installed in this way
is slidable in the lateral direction through engagement between the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12 and the spherical end of the connecting fitting 13. Further, the other end spherical portion of the connecting fitting 13 is loosely fitted into the engaging fitting 10, and is allowed to move slightly upward while maintaining the engaged state between them, so that the riser plate 11 is in the attached state. It can also be moved slightly up and down. Further, the riser plate 11 can rotate slightly through engagement between the spherical recess of the engagement rail 12 and the spherical tip of the connecting fitting 13.
Through these movable structures, the mounting position of the riser board 11 can be finely adjusted while maintaining its mounted state, so construction can be performed without leaving any gap between the main body bottom plate 9 and the floor surface.

If the riser plate 11 is damaged, etc., the riser plate 11 can be easily removed by sliding the riser plate 11 until one of the bulbous ends of the connecting fitting 13 received in the engagement rail 12 is released. can be removed. The connecting fitting 13 is then removed by lifting it upward and separating the other spherical tip end from the engaging fitting 10.

A dustproof sheet 14 made of a flexible material such as plastic, cloth, or rubber plate is attached to the lower end of the riser board 11 with adhesive, staples, or the like. This dustproof sheet 14 acts to close the gap between the riser board 11 and the floor surface when the floor surface is uneven, and prevents dirt and dust from entering the space below the main body 6. I can do it. Further, the bottom plate 9 is supported on height-adjustable support legs (not shown), thereby supporting the furniture main body 6 at a required height above the floor surface.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, but can take various modifications. For example, a symmetrical connecting fitting with spherical enlarged portions at both ends is shown in the figure, but although this has the advantage of not having to consider the orientation with respect to the other party to be engaged, it is not always possible to use such a shape. It is not limited. For example, in order to allow lateral sliding of the riser in the installed state, the shape of the enlarged part at one end of the connecting fitting does not necessarily have to be spherical, but can be of any shape as long as it matches the shape of the recess of the engagement rail. It may be.

<Effects of the invention> According to the invention, the riser board can be attached to the furniture body using a connecting fitting having enlarged portions at both ends.
An elastic alloy tool that receives the enlarged portion at one end is attached to the inner surface of the side plate at the bottom of the furniture, and an engagement rail having a spherical recess that receives the enlarged portion at the other end is attached over approximately the entire width of the riser. This makes it easy to attach and detach the riser, and even after installation, it can be moved vertically, horizontally, and horizontally, so it can be installed without any gaps between it and the floor.
