Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a cap cover that covers an end of a column that constitutes a part of the furniture, and furniture with a column to which the cap cover can be attached.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, as a furniture with a support, a flap table is known in which a top plate can be flap-operated as required, represented by a conference table or the like (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
More specifically, the flap table includes a pair of leg posts that are separated from each other on the left and right sides, a top plate that is supported on the upper end side of the leg posts, and a horizontal plate that is interposed between the top plate and the leg posts. And a flap mechanism for performing a flap operation between the state and the standing state.
[0003]
When in use, the user can use the top surface of the top plate as a work area by placing the top plate in a horizontal state, and when not in use, the top plate can be raised to increase the thickness of multiple flap tables. The stacking efficiency is improved by allowing the stacking in the direction.

[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in such a flap table, the leg support is often composed of a square pipe cut to a predetermined length, and a cap is attached to close the opening at the end of the leg support. However, the conventional cap is composed of a flat-plate-shaped covering portion that closes the end opening of the support column and a mounting portion that can be fitted to the end opening, and is simply a function for covering the end portion of the leg support. It was only what it had.
[0006]
In addition, in the flap table, a storage shelf is usually provided on the lower surface of the top plate in order to temporarily put a user's baggage, etc. in use, but when the flap table is stored in a stack, Therefore, it is necessary to increase the stack efficiency, and the thickness tends to be reduced as much as possible. Therefore, although the storage shelf is provided on the lower surface of the top plate, it does not have a sufficient thickness dimension and the storage area is insufficient. As a result, even when relatively thin items such as notebooks and pencil cases can be stored in use, the user's bag or baggage cannot be stored depending on the size. It was. For this reason, each user places his / her baggage on the floor, or hooks a shoulder strap of the baggage on the edge of the top board. In the former case, placing the baggage on the floor complicates the inside of the office such as a conference room, and the user kicks the baggage with his / her foot. In the latter case, there is a problem that a shoulder strap or the like covers a part of the top plate and the work area becomes narrow.
[0007]
Furthermore, the flap mechanism which flap-operates a top plate on the characteristic of a flap table is provided. In this flap mechanism is provided with a movable bracket provided on the top plate side and a fixed bracket provided on the leg column side, and in which this flap mechanism is interposed between the top plate and the leg column, There is a case where a gap is formed between the lower end of the movable bracket and the upper end of the leg column, and it is necessary for the user to perform an operation with consciousness of whether or not a foreign object is caught in these gaps with the flap operation.
[0008]
An object of the present invention is to provide a cap and a post-supported furniture that has high added value and is easy to use so as to solve the above problems.
[0009]
[Means for solving the problems]
In other words, the present invention is a cap that covers the end face of a support column of furniture, and is provided with a hook portion that hooks and holds a hooked object such as a bag.
[0010]
If it is such, the added value that a to-be-latched body can be hooked on the cap which has only had the function only to coat | cover the end surface of a support | pillar conventionally can be given. Moreover, the cap which coat | covers the end surface of a support | pillar in furniture is attached with respect to the support | pillar which an end surface has faced outward from a viewpoint of improving the appearance of the whole furniture. That is, since the hooking portion is located on the end surface facing outward in the furniture, the user can access the hooking portion relatively easily and the convenience is improved.
[0011]
In order to be able to hook and hold the object to be secured in a stable state, a cap may be attached to the upward end surface of the furniture column. This is because the strut receives a part of the load of the to-be-suspended body, so that the hook portion can be prevented from being damaged and the necessity of excessively increasing the attachment strength between the cap and the strut can be eliminated.
[0012]
In order to easily configure the hook portion, the cap includes a base portion that abuts on the end face of the support column and an upright portion that is provided continuously from the base portion, and the hook portion is configured using the upright portion. It is good to form. If it does in this way, when forming a cap, for example from a synthetic resin etc., it can manufacture integrally.
[0013]
Even if an unexpected external force is applied to the hooked body caught by the hooking portion, in order to effectively prevent the hooked body from falling off, the upright portion is provided with a concave portion opened upward, and the concave portion and the What is necessary is just to comprise the hook part which can hook a to-be-latched body with the division part divided | segmented by the recessed part.
[0014]
In order to increase the degree of freedom of the position to be hooked according to the type of the body to be hooked and improve the user's convenience, the height of both ends of the divided portion with respect to the lower end edge of the concave portion may be made relatively different. .
[0015]
As a preferred specific example, it is desirable that the concave portion is provided continuously over substantially the entire length of the upright portion in the width direction.
[0016]
Further, if a plurality of the upright portions are provided and the height of the upright portions with respect to the base portion is different from each other, the portions between the upright portions can function as a component of the hooking portion as in the case of the concave portion.
[0017]
The present application also provides furniture with a cap having the above-described configuration.
[0018]
As such furniture according to the present invention, in particular, the furniture includes a flat plate portion, a flap mechanism that makes it possible to change the position of the flat plate portion between a horizontal state and a standing state, and a column that supports the flat plate portion. And the above-mentioned cap is provided at the end of the column.
[0019]
In this case, if it is furniture with a support | pillar in which the upper end surface of the said support | pillar is located in the lower surface side of the flat plate part in a horizontal state, it is still better. This is because the hooking portion can be provided using the dead space between the flat plate portion and the support column. Moreover, since a part of to-be-latched body is not exposed to the upper surface side of a flat plate part, the upper surface of a flat plate part can fully be utilized.
[0020]
In particular, in furniture in which the flap mechanism includes a movable element that is provided on the flat plate side and performs a flap operation together with the flat plate portion and a fixed element that is provided on the support column side, and prevents the biting of foreign matter during the flap operation. In order for the user to be able to operate almost without being aware of fingering etc., a concealing part that substantially closes the gap in the height direction formed between the lower edge of this movable element and the upper part of the column is provided on the cap. It only has to be provided.
[0021]
As a specific configuration, the cap includes a base that abuts on the end face of the support column, and standing parts that are provided continuously from the base part and that face each other. It is what is comprised, Comprising: What uses one side of a standing part as a concealment part is mentioned.
[0022]
In this case, the flap mechanism flaps the flat plate portion with the horizontal direction of the flat plate portion as an axis, and the flap operation rotates one edge of the flat plate portion sandwiching the shaft core upward and the other. The edge of the upright portion may be a hook portion that can be hooked by the end portion located on one edge side of the upright portion. This is because, during the flap operation, the interference of the body to be latched can be reduced, and the flat plate can be brought upright even when the body to be latched is hung on the latching portion.
[0023]
Further, in order to encourage the user to use the upright end portion positioned on one edge side preferentially, the relative height of the upright end portion positioned on the one edge side with respect to the base portion is determined. What is necessary is just to set higher than the other standing part which can latch a latching body.
[0024]

[0034]
Next, the overall configuration of the flap table 1 as the support furniture provided with the cap will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0035]
A flap table 1 shown in FIG. 2 is used as a conference table, and is interposed between a top plate 2 that is a flat plate portion, a leg 3 that supports the top plate, and the top plate 2 and the leg 3. A flap that supports the plate 2 so as to be able to perform a flap operation between a substantially horizontal horizontal state (use position) shown in FIG. 3 (a) and a substantially vertical standing state (stack storage position) shown in FIG. 3 (b). And a mechanism 4.
[0036]
As shown in FIG. 2, the top plate 2 is a flat plate having a rectangular shape in plan view with a long side in the left-right direction in FIG. 2, and its upper surface 21 is used as a work area for the user. It is made of steel material. In addition, a plurality of round pipes P formed in an upward U-shape that function as a shelf plate are arranged in parallel on the lower surface 22, and the space between the lower surface 22 and the upper surface of the round pipe P is a storage area S.
[0037]
As shown in FIGS. 2, 4, and 5, the legs 3 are spaced apart from each other on the lower surface side of the top plate 2 and support the top plate 2 via the flap mechanism 4. It has a base that extends back and forth and a leg column 31 that is a column that stands near the center of the base, and slides on the floor surface via casters (not shown) attached to the bottom surfaces of both ends of the base. It is supported freely.
[0038]
The leg support 31 is made of steel consisting of a straight hollow square pipe, and its lower end is attached to the upper surface of the base via bolts or the like as appropriate, and extends upward from the base. The upper end 311 of 31 is positioned slightly forward of the vertical position with respect to the lower end, and the upper end 311 of the leg column 31 is positioned on the lower surface 22 side of the top plate 2. The upper end 311 is formed with an opening K and an upper end surface 311a surrounding the periphery of the opening K, and the cap is attached to the upper end 311. More specifically, first, the mounting portion C12 of the cap C is lowered while being press-fitted into the opening K from above. If it does so, the further descent | fall of a cap will be prohibited in the position which the contact surface C11a of the cap C and the upper end surface 311a of the leg support | pillar 31 contact | abut, and the cap C will be attached to the leg support | pillar 31. At this time, it is attached so that the inward surface of the fourth upright portion C214 serving as a concealing portion is positioned along the outer surface of the outer wall 52 of the movable bracket 5 described later. In other words, regardless of whether the top plate 2 is in a horizontal state or a standing state, the outer wall 52 and the fourth standing portion C214 serving as a concealing portion are disposed at a position where they substantially overlap.
[0039]
The flap mechanism 4 is interposed between the top plate 2 and the leg 3 so that the position of the top plate 2 can be changed between a horizontal state and a standing state. 4 to 7, the movable bracket 5 is a movable element provided on the top plate 2 side, the fixed bracket 6 is a fixed element provided on the leg column side, and the lock mechanism 7 is provided. .
[0040]
The movable bracket 5 performs a flap operation together with the top plate 2, and is formed into a downward U-shaped type comprising a top plate 51, an outer wall 52 and an inner wall 53 by bending a relatively thick steel plate. The hollow part 54 formed between the side walls 52 and 53 is open at least on the lower end side and the rear end side. The top surface of the top plate 51 is set as a top plate support surface 51 a for attaching and supporting the top plate 2. Further, a hole 5a that penetrates in the thickness direction for inserting a support shaft X, which will be described later, and a hole 5b that penetrates in the thickness direction for inserting the operation shaft Y are formed at appropriate portions of both side walls 52, 53. ing. 5 and 6, the lower end 52X of the outer wall 52 is positioned slightly above the upper end surface 311a of the leg column 31 in the horizontal state. In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, a gap is also formed between the rear end 52Y of the outer wall positioned downward in the standing state and the upper end surface 311a of the leg column 31. For this reason, a gap is generated in the height direction in both the horizontal state and the standing state, and there is a possibility that foreign matter may be caught, but this gap is concealed by the above-mentioned fourth standing part C214 of the cap C, There is almost no risk of foreign objects being caught.
[0041]
The fixing bracket 6 is formed by bending a steel plate, and the base end portion 61 is fixed to the inner surface 312 of the leg column 31 with a bolt or the like, and the upper end portion 62 is located above the inner side of the leg column 31. It protrudes through the bent part 63. The upper end 62 is formed with a side-view-type engaging portion 73 that constitutes a part of the lock mechanism 7 described later, and a hole 6a penetrating in the thickness direction through which the support shaft X is inserted at an appropriate position. Is formed.
[0042]
Here, the relationship between the movable bracket 5 and the fixed bracket 6 will be described. The movable bracket 5 is fitted on the fixed bracket 6 so that the upper end 62 of the fixed bracket 6 is positioned in the hollow portion 54 of the movable bracket 5. The support shaft X is inserted into holes 5a and 6a provided in corresponding portions of the brackets 5 and 6, and the movable bracket 5 is pivotally supported on the fixed bracket 6 with the support shaft X as a fulcrum. . The support receiving portion 62a set on the upper end surface of the fixed bracket 6 has a contact surface 51b on the lower surface of the top plate 51 of the movable bracket 5 when the top plate support surface 51a of the movable bracket 5 is in the horizontal state shown in FIG. The support receiving portion 62b formed at the rear edge of the fixed bracket 6 on the upper end 62 side is set to a position where it can come into contact with the top plate support surface 51a of the movable bracket 5 in the upright state shown in FIG. Sometimes, it is set to a position where the contact surface 51b of the bottom surface of the top plate 51 of the movable bracket 5 can be contacted.
[0043]
The lock mechanism 7 is interposed between the brackets 5 and 6, and is used to lock the movable bracket 5 to the fixed bracket 6 when the top plate support surface 51a is in a horizontal state or a standing state. The lock claw 72 and the engaging portions 73 and 74 are provided.
[0044]
The operation lever 71 includes an operation lever body 711 and an operation axis Y. The operation lever main body 711 is a thick plate-like member formed of a synthetic resin or the like, and includes a finger hook portion 711a that is partially bulged outward. The operation shaft Y is a rod-shaped member that protrudes inward from the surface opposite to the side surface on which the finger hooking portion 711a is formed. The operation shaft Y includes holes 5b provided in both side walls 52 and 53 of the movable bracket and a later-described surface. It has an outer diameter through which a hole 7b provided in the locking claw 72 can be inserted. The operation lever 71 urges the operation lever 71 counterclockwise as viewed from the right side by an elastic body (not shown) such as a coil spring.
[0045]
The lock claw 72 has a substantially square shape when viewed from the side. The lock claw 72 is pivoted by inserting the operation shaft Y into the hole 7b formed at the upper end and supporting it in the holes 5b provided in the both side walls 52 and 53 of the movable bracket 5. A partially arcuate tip claw 72 a that is pivotally attached and has the operation shaft Y as a fulcrum at the lower end extends toward the fixed bracket 6. The hole 7b and the operation shaft Y are fixed so as not to rotate with each other by an appropriate means.
[0046]
The engaging portion 73 is a notched shape formed at the front edge on the upper end 62 side of the fixed bracket 6 and has a side view shape. More specifically, when the top plate support surface 51a of the movable bracket 5 is in the horizontal state shown in FIG. 6 and the lock claw 72 is rotated with the support shaft Y as a fulcrum, its front end claw. It has a shape along the locus drawn by the portion 72a.
[0047]
The engaging portion 74 has a V-groove shape formed in the vicinity of the support receiving portion 62a of the fixed bracket 6. The top plate support surface 51a of the movable bracket 5 is in the standing state shown in FIG. 72 is provided at a position where the tip claw 72a can sink when it is slightly rotated with the operating shaft Y as a fulcrum.
[0048]
Here, the lock mechanism 7 configured as described above will be described. When the operation lever 71 is rotated, the lock claw 72 is rotated and a contact / separation operation with respect to the engaging portions 73 and 74 is caused. It is like that. On the other hand, the operation lever 71 is urged in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the right side by an elastic body (not shown). That is, when no external force is applied, the operation lever 71 is biased in a direction in which the front end claw portion 72a of the lock claw 72 is engaged with the engagement portions 73 and 74 provided on the fixed bracket 6 by the biasing force of the elastic body. When an operation force in the clockwise direction when viewed from the right side is applied via the finger hook portion 711a, an urging force for retreating from the engaging portions 73 and 74 can be applied to the lock claw 72. .
[0049]
Next, the flap operation of the flap table according to the present embodiment will be described. In the state where the top plate 2 is in the horizontal state shown in FIGS. 3A and 6, and the front end claw portion 72 a of the lock claw 72 constituting the lock mechanism 7 is engaged with the engagement portion 73 of the fixed bracket 6. The movable bracket 5 is prohibited from rotating about the support shaft X, and the top plate 2 is stably held on the leg column 3 via the contact surface 51b of the movable bracket 5 and the support receiving portion 62a of the fixed bracket 6. . On the other hand, when the finger is placed on the finger hooking portion 711a of the operation lever 71 from this position and the operation lever 71 is operated in the direction approaching the contact surface 51b side of the movable bracket 5 (upward in FIG. 6), the lock claw 72 Is rotated clockwise as viewed from the right side, and the tip claw portion 72 a is detached from the engaging portion 73. For this reason, the locked state of the movable bracket 5 is released, and a rotation operation around the support shaft X is caused. Further, when the movable bracket 5 continues to rotate via the top plate 2, when the top plate 2 reaches a predetermined storage position, as shown in FIG. And the movable bracket 5 is held in that position. Even in this state, as long as the operation lever 71 is not operated slightly as described above, the lock claw 72 is not detached from the engagement portion 74 and the rotation of the movable bracket 5 around the support shaft X is prohibited. Further, at this position, the contact surface 51b of the movable bracket 5 contacts the other support receiving portion 62b of the fixed bracket 6, and therefore further backward tilting operation is prohibited. Therefore, stacking can be performed by bringing the upper surface of the other upstanding top plate 2 closely close to the lower surface of one upstanding top plate 2 of the adjacent conference table. Further, in order to rotate the top plate 2 from this position to the use position again, the operation lever 71 is operated to disengage the lock claw 72 of the lock mechanism 7 from the engaging portion 74, and the top plate 2 is rotated. What is necessary is just to hold | maintain the top plate 2 in a horizontal state stably under a locked state, when the lock nail | claw 72 falls in the engaging part 73 again, as shown in FIG.
[0050]
As described above, the cap C and the flap table in the present embodiment include the hook portion C2 that hooks the hooked body such as a bag, so that the appearance of the flap table can be improved and the storage area has been conventionally provided. You can keep bags that couldn't be stored in S.
[0051]
Moreover, since it covers the upward end surface 311a of the leg column 31 of the flap table 1, it is possible to hook and hold the body to be secured in a stable state.
[0052]
The cap C includes a base C1 that abuts on the upper end surface 311a of the leg column 31 and an upright portion C21 that is provided continuously from the base C1, and a concave portion C22 is provided in the upright portion C21. Since the hooking part C2 that can be hooked with the hooked body is constituted by the divided part C23 divided by the concave part C22, an unexpected external force acts on the hooked body that is hooked and held by the hooking part C2. However, it can effectively prevent the dropout.
[0053]
Furthermore, the height of the upper end of the first divided portion C231a (C232a) with respect to the lower end edge C221a (C222a) of the recess C221 (C222a) is set higher than the height of the upper end of the second divided portion C231b (C232b). Therefore, the lower-part divided portion C231b (C232b) can be preferentially used to hook the object to be hooked, and the higher-side divided part C231a (C232a) is a fall prevention means for preventing the object from being dropped. It can take on the function as.
[0054]
Further, the upper edge of the third upright portion C213 is continuously cut out over substantially the entire length in the width direction to form a third concave portion C223, and the position of the lower end edge C223a of the third concave portion C223 is set to the outside of the base body C11. Since the edge substantially coincides with the upper surface C11b of the base main body C11, a string such as a hook is placed so as to straddle the first concave portion C221 and the second concave portion C222 that are opposed to each other with a space therebetween. When hooked, the gap formed between this string and the lower edge C223a of the third recess C223 can be used as a finger insertion part, improving convenience when taking out the object to be hooked from the hooking part. Is done. (See FIG. 8 (b))
Further, in the flap table 1, the flap mechanism 4 is provided on the top plate 2 side, and includes a movable bracket 5 that performs a flap operation together with the top plate 2 and a fixed bracket 6 provided on the leg 3 side. When the cap C is attached to the support column 3, the fourth gap is formed so as to substantially close the gap in the height direction formed between the lower edge portion 52X of the movable bracket (see FIGS. 4 and 5) and the upper end surface 311a of the support column.
