Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a dressing table. In this specification, the term "mirror stand" broadly includes a mirror stand as Japanese and Western furniture, as well as appliances with an upright mirror, such as washstands and full-length mirrors.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY AND PROBLEMS A conventional mirror stand was equipped with the following mechanism for adjusting the inclination angle of a mirror section including a mirror body. What has been widely used in the past has been to erect columns on both sides of the mirror and support the center of the mirror with a pair of setscrews.
Although angle adjustment and fixation were possible by tightening and loosening the set screw, such a mechanism had the problem that tightening and loosening the set screw was troublesome and the set screw loosened during use. . To deal with this, a rotation shaft is provided at the position of the set screw,
Two flanges each having one of a concave portion and a convex portion at equal intervals in the circumferential direction around the rotation axis, one of the flanges is fixed to the inner surface of the column and the other to the outer surface of the mirror portion, There is a mechanism in which the flanges of the mirror are biased by springs so that they touch each other, but this mechanism supports the mirror part only by engaging the uneven part near the center of rotation, so it is difficult to support the mirror part. There was also the problem that it became unstable and that adjustment could only be made in stages corresponding to the position of the uneven portion.

Furthermore, there was a system in which the mirror part was suspended from the upper part of the column, the lower end of the mirror was supported by a stay that could be bent and extended, and the angle was adjusted between the folded and extended positions of the stay, but this mechanism did not allow for angle adjustment. There were problems in that it was limited to two stages and the structure was complicated.

The present invention solves the problems of the prior art, and provides a mirror stand that can steplessly adjust the inclination angle of the mirror, provide stable support for the mirror, and has an angle adjustment mechanism with a simple structure. The purpose is to provide

Means for Solving the Problems The object of the present invention is to provide a mirror section that includes a mirror body and is under the action of a downward force, a pedestal section that has an installation surface at its lower end, and a mirror section that extends upward from the rear of the pedestal section. frame and
an upper support part that supports the upper part of the mirror part so as to be rotatable around an axis extending in the left and right directions toward the mirror part at the upper end of the frame; and a lower end part of the mirror part located on the base part. a slide that supports the lower end relative to the base so that the lower end can be manually moved in the front-back direction by engaging with the lower end, and not move in the front-back direction based only on the downward force of the mirror part; This is achieved by a mirror stand characterized by comprising a lower support portion having a stop surface.

In the mirror stand, the downward force of the mirror section may be applied by gravity.

In the mirror stand, a downward force on the mirror section is applied by a frame that elastically clamps the mirror section from above and below, and the anti-slip surface is provided on a lower clamping member of the frame. It can also be taken as a thing.

Embodiments Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained along with embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

The mirror stand shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 includes a mirror part 1 having a mirror body 10, and a base part 2 having an installation part at the lower end.
, a frame 3 extending upward from the base 2, an upper support part 4 supporting the upper part of the mirror part at the upper end of the frame 3, and a lower support part 5 supporting the lower part of the mirror part on the base part 2. It is equipped with The mirror section 1 includes a mirror body 10 supported by a frame 11. Base part 2
The mirror is equipped with drawers, cupboards, etc. like a normal dressing table, but these are omitted in the figure. The frame 3 includes a lower pipe 30 whose lower end is fixed to the base 2 and extends upward, and a set screw 32 for fixing an upper pipe 31 that fits in and out of the lower pipe 30 at an appropriate position. ing. The lower pipe 30 is provided at the center of the mirror table in the left-right direction at the rear of the table part 2, and the upper pipe 31 has an upper end bent forward approximately horizontally. 1 and 2 show a state in which the upper pipe 31 is fixed at the most extended position and the rectangular mirror portion 1 is supported vertically. The upper support part 4 includes a hanging ring 40 fixed to the tip of the upper pipe 31 so that the central axis extends in the left-right direction;
A locking portion 41 is attached to the frame 11 of the mirror portion (see FIGS. 4 and 5). The locking part 41 is
Mounting plate 41 fixed to the upper end surface of frame 11
0, a pair of support rods 411 that stand up from the mounting plate and have threaded tips, and a hanging ring 40.
Support rods 41 are provided at both ends with an outer diameter that can be passed through the rod.
A locking rod 412 is provided with a female thread that engages with the threaded portion of the locking rod 412. The locking rod 412 is
When the support rod 411 is moved to one end on the thread, a gap is formed between the other end of the locking rod 412 and the tip of the other support rod 411. The locking rod 412 is passed through the hanging ring 40 using this gap, and is then moved to the center of the pair of support rods 411, so that it is in the locked state as shown in FIG. The locking portions 41 are provided at the center of the upper end surface and the center of one side of the frame 11 in the state shown in FIG. The locking portions on the sides of the frame 11 will be described later. The lower support part 5 includes a support plate 50 placed on the top plate of the base part 2 and a pair of handles 51 attached to the front part of the support plate. The support plate 50 is a rectangular plate with a length in the left and right direction approximately corresponding to the width of the mirror part 1, and has a groove 500 formed in its upper surface to receive the lower end of the mirror part 1. A non-slip material is attached to the lower surface of the support plate 50 so that it comes into contact with the top plate of the platform 2 via the non-slip material. As the anti-slip material, materials having appropriate friction such as synthetic resin, cloth, and felt can be used. Further, a suitable anti-slip material may be provided at a corresponding position on the top plate of the platform 2. The mirror part 1 is
While suspended from the upper support part 4, it is engaged with the groove 500 of the lower support part. A cushion material 501 is provided in the groove 500, so that even if the relative position and distance between the upper support part 4 and the lower support part 5 change as the inclination angle of the mirror part 1 is adjusted, the lower end of the mirror part 1 and the groove The support plate 50, which is designed to prevent rattling between the support plate 500 and the mirror part 1, receives part of the gravity acting on the mirror part 1 via the cushion material 501, and the stronger the inclination of the mirror part 1, the stronger this force is. Although it acts to cause the support plate 50 to slide, the above-mentioned anti-slip material is designed to prevent the support plate 50 from moving due to such sliding force. A stopper 52 for the support plate 50 is provided on the top plate of the platform 2 at a suitable front position.

Therefore, in this mirror stand, the mirror part 1 is erected with the upper end supported by the upper support part 4 and the lower end supported by the lower support part 5, and when you want to change the inclination angle of the mirror part 1, hold the handle 51. Then, the support plate 50 may be moved in the front-rear direction against the frictional force between the support plate 50 and the upper surface of the base portion 2. FIGS. 6 and 7 show a state in which the mirror section 1 is mounted horizontally in the above-described example. In this case, the upper pipe 31 of the frame 3 is fixed by a set screw 32 at a position deeply inserted into the lower pipe 30. The mirror part 1 is supported by the rod 3 by engaging a locking part 41 provided on the side of the mirror part 1 in FIG. 2 with a hanging ring 40. The lower end of the mirror portion 1 is engaged in the groove 500 of the support plate 50 in the same manner as described above. Therefore, in this case as well, the angle of inclination of the mirror portion 1 can be adjusted by grasping the handle 51 and moving the support plate 50 in the front-back direction.
The vertical distance between the upper and lower ends of the mirror part changes as the inclination angle of the mirror part 1a changes, but this is due to the play between the hanging ring 40 and the locking rod 412 and the cushion material 5.
It is absorbed by the deformation of 01. However, it is also possible to absorb such a change in the vertical distance by deforming the frame 3.

Incidentally, the upper support part can also be made as shown in FIG. The upper support portion 4' is constituted by a support piece 42 having a U-shaped cross section attached to the tip of the upper pipe 31 as described above, and the frame 11 of the mirror portion 1 having a round cross section. Support piece 42
The upper pipe 31 is arranged so that the groove extends in the left and right direction.
The rounded upper end portion 43 of the frame 11 is received, and the frame 11 is supported so as to be rotatable about the left-right axis as the inclination of the mirror portion 1 changes. 9 to 11 show other examples of the dressing table according to the present invention. This mirror stand also basically has the same configuration as the above example, and includes a mirror section 1a, a stand section 2a, a frame 3a, an upper support section 4a, and a lower support section 5a. The mirror portion 1a includes a mirror body 10, a frame 11, and a handle 12 protruding forward at the lower end of the frame 11. The frame 3a is made of wood plywood and has a U-shape when viewed from the side, and the lower horizontal part is the base part 2.
It is fixed to the a side. The upper support part 4a is a frame 11
A mounting plate 42 is fixed to the upper end surface, a support rod 43 is fixed to the mounting plate 42 at both ends and protrudes in a U-shape, and the support rod 43 is passed through the center hole and attached to the frame 3a. On the other hand, it is provided with a support tube 44 fixedly extending in the left-right direction. The lower support portion 5a includes a frame 11
It has a slightly wide protruding piece 53 that extends downward from the lower end surface and reaches the lower horizontal part of the frame 3a.
A non-slip material as described above is attached to the lower surface of the protruding piece 53, and the projecting piece 53 is brought into contact with the frame 3a via the non-slip material. Upper support part 4
a, the combined length of the mirror portion 1a and the lower support portion 5a is slightly larger than the inner distance between the upper and lower horizontal members of the frame 3a, and therefore, as shown in FIGS.
In the mounted state as shown in the figure, the mirror portion 1a receives a clamping force in the vertical direction from the elastically deformed frame 3a. That is, when viewed from the lower horizontal member of the frame 3a, a downward force is applied to the mirror portion 1a by the upper horizontal member of the frame 3a. This downward force is generated when the mirror portion 1a is tilted.
The anti-slip material acts to cause the lower end surface of the protruding piece 53 to slide, but the anti-slip material has such friction that the protruding piece 53 does not move due to such sliding force. A stopper 54 for the mirror portion 1a is provided on the upper surface of the base portion 2 at an appropriate front position.

Therefore, in the mirror stand of this example, the mirror part 1a is erected between the frames 3a by the upper support part 4a and the lower support part 5a, and the inclination angle of the mirror part 1a can be adjusted as follows.
This can be done by grasping the handle 12 and moving the lower end of the mirror portion 1a in the front-back direction against the frictional force between the protruding piece 53 and the frame 3a.

Note that in this example as well, the upper support portion can also be configured as shown in FIG.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, the upper part of the mirror part is rotatably supported by the upper support part, and the lower end part is supported by the lower support part via a sliding stop surface. Therefore, the angle of inclination can be adjusted very easily by manually moving the lower support part in the front and back direction together with the lower end of the mirror. To provide a mirror stand that provides stable support and has an extremely simple structure as a whole because the structure for this is based on a rotatable support in the upper support part and a non-slip surface in the lower support part. can do.
