Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a folding table, and more particularly, to a top plate which is attached to a pillar so as to be rotatable between a horizontal use state and a substantially vertical folding state, and a table below the top plate. And a folding table with shelves having shelves provided.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Various types of conventional folding tables of this type are known. For example, a metal pipe or plate is welded to a support member that can be fixed to the lower surface of a top plate. Some are stuck.

[0003]

However, when a metal pipe or plate is assembled by welding like a conventional folding table with shelves, it takes a long time to manufacture the shelves and the shelves are expensive. It becomes something. Also, after welding the shelf,
Since the components are stocked after surface treatment such as painting, the size of the components increases, and there is also a disadvantage that a large space is required in a storage place or an assembling operation. Furthermore, when not in use, when the table is placed in a substantially vertical state and the tables are stacked in the front-rear direction and stored,
It is necessary to attach a cushioning material such as a synthetic resin to the pedestal in order to prevent the pedestal from directly abutting on the top plate of the adjacent table to damage the pedestal, which increases the man-hour and the number of parts required for it. There was a problem.

According to the present invention, in order to solve such various problems, parts constituting a shelf are formed into a shape having a small number of processing steps and easy to stock, thereby facilitating manufacturing and assembling work, and providing a pillar. It is an object of the present invention to provide a folding table with shelves that can prevent a top plate from being damaged without attaching a cushioning material to the table.

[0005]

According to the present invention, the above-mentioned problem is solved as follows. (1) In a folding table with a shelf having a top plate attached to a pillar so as to be rotatable between a horizontal use state and a substantially vertical folding state, and a shelf provided below the top plate, Receiving portions to which respective ends of a plurality of shelf pipes arranged in the front-rear direction, which face in the left-right direction, can be respectively fitted to opposing surfaces of a pair of left and right shelf receiving materials having an attachment portion to the top plate at an upper portion. Is provided, and on a part of the lower surface of each shelf receiving material,
The downward projecting portion is provided so as to project forward from the pillar in the folded state of the top plate.

(2) In the above item (1), the projecting portion is formed integrally with the shelf receiving material by integrally molding the shelf receiving material with a synthetic resin material.

(3) In the above item (2), the protrusion is substantially hollow.

[0008]

FIG. 1 shows a folding table with shelves (A) according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which a metal pillar (2) is erected on a caster-equipped leg (1). Are arranged on the left and right, and between the pair of left and right pillars (2), the top plate (3) can be folded from the horizontal use state shown in FIG. 1 to the vertical non-use storage state shown in FIG. It is attached to.

The shelf (5) comprises a pair of left and right shelf receiving members (6) and a plurality of shelf pipes (7).

A pair of left and right shelf receiving members (6) are integrally formed of a synthetic resin material, and have an overall shape of a box with an open inner surface, and a front half portion (hereinafter, a right direction in FIG. 1). (Which will be described as the front) is missing. At the rear end of each shelf receiving member (6), a rearward projecting portion (9) is formed slightly below the upper end. The horizontal plate at the upper end of the shelf receiving member (6) forms an attachment part (11). Mounting holes (8) and (10) are formed at appropriate positions of the rearward projecting portion (9) and the mounting portion (11).

Each shelf pipe is provided on the lower inner surface of the shelf receiving material (6).
Five tubular receiving parts to which the ends of (7) are fitted (12) (13)
However, they are integrally connected at equal intervals from the front to the rear. The last receiving part (13) is the other four receiving parts (1
It is formed at a position slightly higher than 2).

At the lower part of the rear part of the shelf receiving material (6), a projection (14) is provided.
Are formed to protrude downward. Although the protrusion (14) has a partition (15) in the middle, most of the protrusion (14) is substantially hollow, and as shown in FIG. 3, when the top plate (3) is folded, It acts as a cushioning material against the impact of the top plate (3).

FIG. 2 shows a shelf receiving material (6) and a shelf pipe (7) on the right side.
A pair of left and right shelf receiving members (6) having such a configuration are opposed to each other so that their receiving portions (12) and (13) face each other, and a shelf pipe (7) is interposed therebetween. ) Can be fitted at both ends.

To assemble the shelf (5) on the lower surface of the top plate (3),
First, as shown in FIG. 3, the upper part of the rear surface of one of the shelf receiving members (6) and the lower surface of the rearward projecting part (9) are fixed to the lower surface of the top plate (3). In the state of contact with the reinforcing rod (4), the rearward projecting portion (9) and the mounting hole (8) of the mounting portion (11) are provided.
(9) The wood screws inserted from above are fixed by screwing them into the reinforcing rod (4) and the top plate (3).

Next, one end of the shelf pipe (7) is fitted to each of the receiving portions (12) and (13) of the one shelf receiving material (6), and then the other end of the shelf pipe (7). At the end of the other shelf support
The receiving portions (12) and (13) of (6) are fitted, and the other shelf receiving material (6)
Is fixed to the reinforcing rod (4) and the top plate (3) in the same manner as described above.

In the folding table with shelf (A) assembled in this manner, the top plate (3) is in the horizontal state as shown in FIG. 1 when in use, but when not in use, as shown in FIG. The plate (3) can be folded almost vertically. In this folded state, the projecting portion of the shelf receiving material (5)
(14) protrudes forward from the pillar (2), so that the upper surface of the top plate (3) of the table (A) stored adjacently contacts the lower protruding portion (15) having a buffering action. The top plate (3) does not directly hit the metal pillar (2) and is not damaged.

[0017]

According to the present invention, the shelf is composed of left and right shelf receiving members and a plurality of shelf pipes, which are simple parts having few processing steps, and can be easily assembled under the top plate by simply assembling them. Since the shelves are formed, the number of man-hours for manufacturing the shelves is reduced, and the shelves are inexpensive. In addition, since each component to be used has a shape that can be easily stocked, the storage space and the space required for assembly work can be minimized.

Further, the top plate is folded almost vertically,
When the tables are stacked one on top of the other in the front-rear direction, the protruding portion projecting forward from the pillar abuts on the surface of the top plate of the adjacent table, so that the top plate does not hit the pillar and be damaged.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, there is no need to separately provide a protruding portion, and since the projection is made of a synthetic resin material, the top plate is less likely to be damaged.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the buffering action is increased, the effect of preventing the top plate from being damaged is further enhanced.
