[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, as described above, the conventional OA desk requires a large amount of power to raise and lower the display 8 in the vertical direction, which increases the size of the OA desk and also causes a guide for transmitting the power of the motor. It is not possible to expect a smooth ascending / descending operation due to rattling and the horizontal line-of-sight.Therefore, when viewing the operation panel such as a keyboard and the display alternately, the deflection angle of the eyes becomes large. In addition, there is a drawback that the work posture becomes unnatural and the user is easily tired.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and by using an urging means, an information processing apparatus such as a display can be easily and smoothly pulled out and stored and used. It is an object of the present invention to provide an OA desk that can reduce eye fatigue during long hours of work by arranging the display etc. in a position that makes it easy to see.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 According to the present invention, the above-mentioned object is to provide a guide rail 3, which is provided below the work surface 9 of the desk body 1 and which is provided in the device storage space 2 which communicates with an opening formed in the work surface 9, and a support base 4. The guide rail 3 has an urging means 5 and a stopper device 6, and the guide rail 3 is disposed along an inclined surface 7 that has an upward slope toward the front. It is configured so that it can be moved up and down by being guided, and that the support base 4 is biased upward by the biasing means 5 and that the support base 4 can be stopped at an appropriate position by the stopper device 6. This is achieved by providing an OA desk characterized in that the information processing device 8 fixed on the support base 4 can be pulled out from the device storage space 2 to the upper part of the work surface 9.

[0008]

[Action]

 The OA desk is provided with a device storage space 2 communicating with the opened opening below the work surface 9 of the desk body 1, and stores an information processing device 8 such as a display.

A support base 4 that is guided and moved by a guide rail 3 is provided in the device storage space 2, and the information processing device 8 is fixed to the support base 4. The information processing device 8 can be retracted from the device storage space 2 onto the top plate 11 as the support base 4 moves.

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, FIG. 8 shows an overall view of an OA desk according to the present invention. The desk body 1 of the OA desk is formed by fixing the side plate 16, the top plate 11, the front plate 17, and the back plate 18 to a frame body formed by framing the beams 28, 28 ...

The surface of the top plate 11 is used as a work surface 9, and an opening is opened in a part of the top plate 11 so as to be opened and closed by a closing plate 19. In addition, a pedestal 26 is provided near the side plate 16 for accommodating the apparatus main body or a peripheral device 20 such as an external storage device. Further, the bottom wall portion 21 is provided with casters 22 so that the desk can be moved.

Details of the lower portion of the top plate 11 are shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. First, below the top plate 11, the device housing space 2 is formed by being surrounded by the bottom plate 23, the side plates 16, the back plate 18 and the front plate 17. The device storage space 2 communicates with the outside of the desk body 1 through an opening formed in the top plate 11. In addition, in FIG. 1, 19a indicates a hinge member that pivotally supports the closing plate 19.

The front plate 17 is inclined forward from the bottom plate 23 toward the top plate 11 at an inclination angle θ, and the two guide rails 3, 3 are arranged in parallel along the height direction thereof. Be done. As shown in FIG. 2B, the guide rail 3 is formed in a substantially U-shaped cross section and is screwed to the front plate 17.

A wheel clasp (not shown) is provided at the terminal end of the guide rail 3 so that a wheel 4 a of a support 4 described later does not overrun from the guide rail 3. Reference numeral 4 denotes a support, which is movable in the vertical direction by running wheels 4a arranged on the back surface along the guide rails 3. The support 4 has a flat plate portion 4b and a rising wall 4e, and is formed in an approximately L-shaped cross section. The flat plate portion 4b and the rising wall 4e hold the display 8. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 4c denotes a wheel receiver fixed to the back surface of the flat plate portion 4b for pivotally supporting the wheel 4a, and 25 denotes a support piece interposed between the wheel 8a and the back surface of the display 8. In addition, in this embodiment, the display 8 is fixed to the support base 4 by the belt 24 to prevent accidental detachment or the like.

Further, a biasing means 5 is provided between the support base 4 and the front plate 17. The urging means 5 is a spring body having an urging force in the extending direction, and both ends of the operating rod 5a are respectively received by a receiving member 4d provided on the support base 4 and a receiving member 17a provided on the front plate 17. Be connected.

In this embodiment, a gas spring is used for the urging means 5 so that an impact force is not applied to the support base 4 at the same time when the stopper device 6 described later is released. It is also possible to use a coil spring.

Further, a stopper device 6 is provided to stop the support base 4 at an appropriate position. The stopper device 6 is composed of a bolt 6a penetrating a vertically elongated hole 17b formed in the front plate 17 and a nut 6b welded to the support base 4.

The head 6d of the bolt 6a is exposed to the outside from the front plate 17, and by operating the head 6d to screw the shaft portion 6c into the nut 6b, the front plate 17 is pressed to The support base 4 is stopped by the friction between 17 and the head 6d of the bolt 6a.

A method of using the OA desk configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. First, when using the OA desk, when the stopper device 6 is released from the engagement position shown in FIG. 4 (a) after the closing plate 19 is opened, the urging force of the urging means 5 supports the OA desk. An upward force is applied to the table 4. In this state, when the bolt head 6d of the stopper device 6 is grasped and pulled up, the support base 4 and the display 8 are easily and smoothly applied with the biasing force of the biasing means 5 even with a small operating force. Therefore, it is driven upward by the operating force, and the state of FIG. 4B can be easily and smoothly changed.

This state is in use, and the bolt 6a is tightened again to prevent the display 8 from descending. When the display is stored, the bolt 6a is loosened again to release the restraint of the support base 4, and the information processing device 8 is moved to the storage position by its own weight or by applying an operating force and fixed by the stopper device 6. To do.

The operation of the support base 4 in the above embodiment is configured to be performed by using the stopper device 6, but in addition to this, an operation piece may be provided at the front edge and pulled out. .

Further, the blocking plate 19 is effective for preventing glare and the like to make the display easy to see, and is linked to the vertical movement of the display up to a predetermined angle so as to be set at a favorable angle, or is used independently. It is also possible to appropriately provide it by a link device or the like so as to open at.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following description, the same configurations as those of the above-described embodiment will be designated by the same reference numerals in the drawings and will not be described.

In this embodiment, the guide rail 3 includes a front guide rail 3 a and a rear guide rail 3 b, and the rear guide rail 3 b is different from the front guide rail 3 a directly fixed on the front plate 17. A larger slope θ2 is given.

The inclination angle θ2 of the rear guide rail 3b is set so that the best line-of-sight angle with respect to the display can be obtained in the use position. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the wheel 4a ′ traveling on the rear guide rail 3b has a larger lift amount as compared with the front wheel 4a as it moves upward, so that the support base 4, that is, the display 8 is gradually increased. It moves to the use position while loosening the inclination, and it is possible to use it in the posture that is the easiest to see in the use position.

As described above, since the support base 4 moves up and down along the front plate 17 while changing the inclination angle θ, the urging means 5 follows the rotational movement of the support base 4. For this reason, it is rotatably connected to the receiving members 4d and 17a.

Further, for the same reason, the back surface of the head 6d of the bolt 6a of the stopper device 6 does not directly face the front plate 17 in the use position, and the back surface of the head allows uniform pressing of the front plate 17. In order to be eliminated, the front plate 17 is provided with a stopper receiver 27 fixed thereto.
