Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a table, and more particularly to a conference table with an OA equipment storage function and a wiring processing function.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, when using information devices such as laptop computers and projectors in meetings, etc., they are brought in from other locations and connected for each meeting.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The effort to carry, install and connect these information devices for the conference is considerable. In order to avoid this, if the information devices are left installed on the conference table, there is a problem that the desk surface cannot be used effectively when the information devices are not used.
In addition, since the outlet for connecting information devices is usually provided on the top board, the plug that connects to it rises on the top board and gets in the way, especially in the projection field of view of the projector. Has also occurred.
[0004]
In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is a table in which information equipment can be accommodated under the top board when not in use, and the wiring connection portion of the information equipment arranged on the top board does not stand on the top board. The purpose is to provide.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, the above problem is solved as follows.
(1) A box having an opening in the top plate, and an OA device storage section that can store OA equipment, and a wiring connection section that can be stored with the wiring of the OA equipment connected, below the opening. A first auxiliary top plate that is removable and covers the opening above the OA device storage portion, and a second auxiliary top plate that is removable and covers the opening above the wiring connection portion, A wiring insertion part is formed between the two auxiliary top plates or between the first auxiliary top plate and the top plate.
[0006]
(2) In the above item (1), the wiring connection portion is sufficiently low to leave a space for arranging the wiring connection device vertically between the upper surface and the lower surface of the second auxiliary top plate. .
[0007]
(3) In the above item (1) or (2), an intermediate plate is mounted on the bottom surface of the 0A device storage portion in the box to form a space that can accommodate the extra length of wiring between the bottom surface. Put.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
1 to 3 are an exploded perspective view, a front view and a side view of a conference table (A) which is an embodiment of the table of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is an enlarged vertical sectional view of a part thereof.
As shown in FIG. 1, a large rectangular opening (2) is formed in the center of the top plate (1) of the conference table (A). Below the opening (2), an open top box (3) is arranged. The upper end of the box (3) is attached to the lower edge of the opening (2), that is, the lower surface of the top plate (1).
[0009]
In this embodiment, the inside of the box (3) is formed with OA equipment storage portions (4a) and (4b) that form a relatively large space on the left and right, and the wiring connection portion (5) is formed at the center. ing.
[0010]
The wiring connection portion (5) is fixed on the bottom surface (6) (FIGS. 2 and 4) of the box (3), and the box (7) is about half the height of the box (3). On the upper surface (7a), a wiring connector (8) such as a power outlet or a communication modular outlet is attached.
Since the upper surface (7a) has such a height, even if the plug (10) of the cord or cable (9) of the information device is inserted into the wiring connector (8) attached here, the plug (9) The hard portion of the top plate (1) does not protrude above the top plate (1), but fits under the top plate (1).
[0011]
In the OA equipment storage portions (4a) and (4b), a middle plate (11) having a U-shaped cross-section facing downward is disposed on the bottom plate (6). As shown in FIG. 4, between the middle plate (11) and the bottom plate (6), the OA tap (12) and the wiring (13a) to the OA tap (12), and further the wiring connector ( A space for accommodating the extra length of the wiring (13b) to 8) is formed.
[0012]
On the intermediate plate (11), the OA device (14) in an unused state can be accommodated. This stored state is shown in FIG.
[0013]
The 1st auxiliary | assistant top plate (15) shown in FIG. 1 is attached to the opening (2) of a top plate (1) so that attachment is possible so that the upper part of OA equipment storage part (4a) (4b) may be covered.
The second auxiliary top plate (16) is detachably attached to the opening (2) of the top plate (1) so as to cover the upper part of the wiring connection portion (5). A wiring insertion part (17) as a brush-like flocked part is formed on the left and right sides of the second auxiliary top board (16), through which the wiring (9) of the OA device (14) is connected to the top board ( 1) Pulled up.
[0014]
2 and 3, as an example of such OA equipment, a projector (18) and its screen (19) are arranged on the top plate (1), and FIG. 3 also shows a notebook computer (20). The situation is shown.
As shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 2, when the wiring connector (8) is on the top surface of the top plate (1), the plug (10) of the projector (18) and its cord (9) However, according to the present invention, since the hard plug (10) is accommodated in the box (2), the plug (10) and the cord (9) interfere with the image. It will never be.
[0015]
Also, when the projector (18) is stored in the box (2), the plug (10) can be used even when the plug (10) at the tip of the cord (9) is attached to the wiring connector (8). Since it fits under (1), it can be stored as it is.
[0016]
In the above-described embodiment, the wiring insertion portion (17) is formed on the side portion of the second auxiliary top plate (16), but this is the first auxiliary surface facing the second auxiliary top plate (16). You may form between the side part of a top plate (15) or the opening (2) of a top plate (1), and the side part of the 1st auxiliary | assistant top plate (15) facing this.
[0017]
【The invention's effect】
According to invention of Claim 1, OA apparatus can be accommodated under the opening of a top plate at the time of non-use, and does not need conveyance to another accommodation place. In this case, the wiring can be stored with the wiring connected. Thereby, the meeting using information equipment can be performed quickly. Further, when the OA device is stored, a wide desk surface can be secured by attaching the auxiliary top plate.
[0018]
According to invention of Claim 2, this information apparatus can be accommodated in the state which inserted and attached the plug of the wiring of the information apparatus from the upper direction of the top plate.
[0019]
According to the third aspect of the present invention, the information equipment and the extra length of the wirings can be accommodated in an orderly manner within a limited space.
