JPH08214971A - Furniture stopper for preventing chest and so on from overturning - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide a furniture stopper for preventing a chest and so on from overturning, which can withstand a shock or a quake when an earthquake breaks out, and which is easy to be detached or attached as required. CONSTITUTION: A ring part 2a formed on one end of a spring 1 is engaged on the central part of a metal plate 3a with a bolt 4a so as to be freely slidable, and the other ring part 2b is engaged with the central part of the other metal plate 3b with a bolt 4b so as to be freely slidable.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a furniture overturning prevention tool such as a closet for preventing a furniture overturning accident such as a closet due to a large impact or shaking when an earthquake occurs.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a furniture fall prevention tool such as a drawer, an L-shaped metal plate having several through holes arranged at appropriate positions on an L-shaped band-shaped iron plate is provided on the wall surface and the upper surface of the chest. It is attached to the corner where it occurs with wood screws, etc., to prevent furniture from falling over such as a closet. However, since the wall and the closet are fixed, there is a risk that a large shock or sway when an earthquake occurs is directly transmitted to the mounting portion, and the wood screw or the like may fall off in a short time. Moreover, due to the shape and material of the L-shaped metal fitting, the load concentrates on the mounting portion near the corner of the L-shaped metal fitting, which increases the risk of falling of wood screws and the like. Further, even in normal times, when furniture such as a closet needs to be temporarily moved for cleaning or the like, it is necessary to remove wood screws and the like, and it is necessary to remove the furniture repeatedly to reduce the mounting strength. was there.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is capable of withstanding a large shock or shaking when an earthquake occurs, and can be easily attached and detached without sacrificing the mounting strength even in normal times as required. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a furniture fall prevention tool.

[0004]

The present invention is directed to a spring 1
One of the ring portions 2a formed on both ends of the metal plate 3
A bolt 4a is swingably attached to the central portion of a, and the other ring portion 2b is attached to the central portion of the other metal plate 3b.
It is provided with a means for swingably engaging at b.

[0005]

Since the present invention has taken the above-mentioned means, when using it, the metal plates 3a and 3b are attached to the wall surface and the upper surface or side surface of the closet with several wood screws or the like to generate an earthquake. Since a large shock and sway at the time are absorbed and held by the expansion and contraction and the restoring force of the spring 1, the shock applied to the metal plates 4a and 4b is mitigated and the spring 1 is attached to the central portion of the metal plates 3a and 3b. Therefore, the load applied to several wood screws or the like is distributed almost evenly. Further, even during normal times, when it becomes necessary to temporarily move furniture such as a closet for cleaning, it is possible to simply move one side of the spring 1 without removing the strength of the attachment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The embodiments shown in the drawings will be described in more detail below.

In the furniture fall prevention tool such as a closet according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, one ring portion 2a formed at both ends of a steel spring 1 is attached to a central portion of a square metal plate 3a having strength. The bolt 4a is swingably engaged, and the other ring portion 2b is similarly secured to the central portion of the metal plate 3b of the same shape by the bolt 4b, and the through holes 5 are provided at the four corners of the metal plates 3a and 3b. One metal plate 3a as a wall surface and the other metal plate 3b as a wall surface.
Is attached to the upper surface of furniture using wood screws 6.

[0008]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is capable of withstanding a large impact or shaking in the event of an earthquake and can be easily attached and detached without damaging the mounting strength even in normal times. Accidents can be prevented.
