DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a storage suitably used in offices and the like, which has excellent strength and workability and provides a good appearance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional storage has a back plate, two side plates, a top plate, a bottom plate, and a door attached to the front of the storage container.
The storage main body is provided with a back plate and two side plates integrally formed of a sheet metal material such as steel by, for example, single bending, and a top plate and a bottom plate are disposed on the upper and lower surfaces, respectively. . The strength of the storage main body depends on the strength of each of the back plate, the side plate, the top plate, and the bottom plate, and the strength of a bent portion that forms a boundary between the back plate and the side plate.

[0003] In recent offices, with the progress of OA, it is necessary to arrange a large number of documents and articles appropriately and keep them in a state where they can be suitably used. Office scenery. Therefore, it is necessary to have not only good strength but also many storages with good appearance, and when designing storages, consider not only structural elements such as strength but also appearance elements Has become a more important issue. For this reason, the appearance of the storage unit as a single unit, such as the shape and color scheme of the door located on the front surface of the storage unit, has recently become favorable.

[0004]

However, such a storage has problems in both structural and appearance elements.

[0005] In the conventional storage, the boundary between the back plate and the side plate is formed by, for example, a bent portion formed by a right-angled single bending process. High strength.

[0006] In recent years, the use of a storage in an office is to efficiently use the office space occupied by the storage and to properly organize and store documents and articles in necessary places. In order to make it possible, it is common practice not only to arrange storages next to a wall but also to arrange a plurality of storages next to each other and partition them. In such a usage mode, since the storage greatly obstructs the field of view of the office, it is necessary to consider not only the storage alone but also the appearance factors when a plurality of storages are used. However, no consideration has been given to such usage in the conventional storage. For example, if a conventional storage is arranged in the same direction as a partition, the appearance provided from the back of the storage is not only monotonous, but also the boundary between the back plate and the side plate. Because of the right angles, even a slight misalignment can cause unevenness in the adjacent part on the back of the storage, which can significantly harm the aesthetics of the office. Also, in order to make the storages available from both sides of the partition, the storages forming the partition are sometimes arranged alternately before and after, but the appearance of the front and back of the conventional storage differs greatly. Cannot give the office a unified aesthetic.

[0007] The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object thereof is to provide a storage having improved strength and workability, and having an appearance reflecting the above-mentioned use mode. .

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention employs the following configuration.

That is, the storage according to the present invention is formed by molding a back plate and a side plate of a storage main body by using a sheet metal material, and has a flat cross section in which an outer surface side is a corner at a boundary portion between the back plate and the side plate. An L-shaped stepped bent portion is provided .

A door is attached to the front of the storage main body so as to cover the front end face of the side plate of the storage main body.
The side end surface of the door is located more inward than the outer surface of the side plate of the storage body, and the step between the side end surface of the door and the outer surface of the side plate is set to be substantially equal to the step formed by the step-shaped bent portion. do it
, Multiple units are placed next to each other,
It is characterized in that it can be used .

[0011]

As described above, if the stepped bent portion is provided at the boundary between the back plate and the side plate, the stepped bent portion functions as a rib structure continuous with the back plate and the side plate. It is possible to obtain better strength against an external force such as a load or a twist from above when another storage is loaded on the upper part.

When a plurality of storages are arranged adjacent to each other to form a partition, the step-shaped bent portion has an appearance in which a vertical slit is formed on the back side of the partition in which the storages are arranged in the same direction. Since it can be provided, it is possible to improve the drilling for a monotonous appearance. In addition, even if the arrangement of the storages is slightly distorted, the irregularities that occur in the adjacent parts of the storages will occur at the inner corners of the step-shaped bent part, and compared to the conventional parts adjacent to the storages. Therefore, it is possible to make the misalignment of the storage more inconspicuous. Furthermore, since the step formed by the side end surface of the door and the outer surface of the side plate at the front of the storage is set to be substantially equal to the step formed by the step-shaped bent portion at the boundary between the back plate and the side plate,
In a partition in which the front and rear of the storage are arranged alternately, the difference in appearance between the front and back of the storage can be made smaller. In this way, it is possible to make a more appropriate contribution to the aesthetics of the office, including improving the design of the entire back of the storage.

[0013]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

As shown in FIG. 1, the storage in this embodiment includes a back plate 2, a top plate 3, a bottom plate 4 and a door 5, which constitute a storage main body 1.

The back plate 2 is made of steel, and is formed by continuously forming left and right side plates 21 and a back plate 22 by press working. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a step-shaped bent portion 23 having an L-shaped plane cross-section is formed at the boundary between the left and right sides of the side plate 21 and the back plate 22. The upper ends of the side plate 21 and the back plate 22 are provided with a top plate mounting portion 24 that is bent inward and extends horizontally. Hollow reinforcing members 25 and 26 extending in the vertical direction are provided near the inner front end and the inner rear end of the side plate 21 to reinforce the strength of the side plate 21 and support a shelf plate (not shown).

The top plate 3 is made of steel, and is attached to the top surface of the storage main body 1 on the top surface of the top plate mounting portion 24.

The bottom plate 4 is made of steel, and the back plate 2 is mounted on the upper surface.

The left and right doors 5 are made of steel and are attached to the front of the storage main body 1 at the front end face 21a of the side plate 21. The side end surface 51 of the door 5 is located more inward than the outer surface 21 b of the side plate 21, and the side plate outer surface 21 b of the side end surface 51.
Is set substantially equal to the step b formed by the step-shaped bent portion 23.

In the storage having the above-described configuration, the step-shaped bent portion 23 which is continuous with the side plate 21 and the back plate 22 is provided with the side plate 2.
In order to act as a rib that supports the boundary between 1 and the back plate 22,
Not only can we hold a large amount of documents and goods well,
For example, it is possible to more appropriately support an external force such as a load or a twist from above when another storage is loaded on the upper surface of the storage.

The appearance when the storage of the present embodiment is used adjacently in an office or the like for partitioning is as follows. When the storages are used in partitions in the same direction, as shown in FIG. 4, the stepwise bent portion 23 produces a vertical slit-like appearance at the boundary of the storages, and the flat surface of the back plate 22 is formed. Improves rolling in a monotonous appearance where only the lines are arranged. Also, even if the row of storages is slightly collapsed,
The unevenness that occurs in the adjacent portion of the storage is generated at the inner corner of the step-shaped bent portion 23, and the misalignment of the storage is hardly noticeable. In addition, when the front and rear sides of the storage are alternately arranged to secure the doors of the storage on both sides of the partition and used as a partition, as shown in FIG. Since the step a formed by the end face 51 and the side plate outer surface 21b and the step b formed by the step-shaped bent portion 23 on the back of the storage are set substantially equal,
The appearance of the front and back of the storage can be made similar, and the appearance of the partition by the storage can be made more natural and harmonious. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the effects of the present invention can be further enhanced by designing the front and rear surfaces of the storage in consideration of partitioning.

The configuration according to the present invention is not limited to the above-described configuration. For example, side plate 2
1 and the back plate 22 are separately formed, and at the boundary portion between the side plate 21 and the back plate 22, as shown in FIG. And the outer surface of the side plate bent portion 211 and the back plate bent portion 2
It is also possible to adopt a structure in which the stepped bent portion 23 is formed by additionally joining the inner surface of the step 21. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, it is also possible to adopt a structure in which the inner surface of the side plate bent portion 211 and the outer surface of the back plate bent portion 221 are additionally engaged to form the step-shaped bent portion 23. . Further, the step between the front end face of the door 5 and the front end face 21a of the side plate and the step in the depth direction of the step-shaped bent portion 23 are set to be substantially equal, and the appearances before and after the storage are made similar. Is also possible. In addition, various modifications such as the material and shape of each member are possible without departing from the present invention.

[0022]

In the storage according to the present invention, a large number of documents and articles to be stored, and a stack to be stacked, are provided because the step-shaped bent portion forming the boundary between the side plate and the back plate serves as a rib. It is possible to better support the external force such as the load or torsion caused by the storage of the storage device.

Further, since such a step-shaped bent portion is formed so that the outer surface side forms a corner, it contributes to the improvement of the appearance when it is used adjacently in an office and used as a partition. When arranged in the same direction, the stepwise bent portion at the boundary of the storage on the back side creates a vertical slit-like appearance, and it is possible to improve the bending with a monotonous appearance In addition, even if the arrangement of the storages is slightly distorted, the irregularities that occur in the adjacent part on the back of the storages will occur at the inner corner of the step-shaped bent part, and the misalignment of the storages It can be inconspicuous. Further, when the storage is arranged alternately in front and rear, a step formed by the side end surface of the door and an outer surface of the side plate at the front of the storage and a step formed by the step-shaped bent portion at the back of the storage are substantially described. Since they are set to be equal, the appearance of the front and back of the storage can be made more similar, and the appearance of the partition by the storage can be made more natural and harmonized with the office or the like.
