  EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION The form for implementing the upper cabinet which concerns on this invention is demonstrated below with reference to drawings based on an Example. In the present specification, when the upper cabinet is viewed from the front, the front side is the front, the back side is the rear, and the direction orthogonal to the front-rear direction is referred to as the left-right direction.

Example 1
A first embodiment of the upper cabinet according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The upper cabinet 1 of the first embodiment includes a cabinet body 2 and a front door 3 as shown in FIGS.

  The cabinet body 2 is formed in a box shape so that the front surface is open, and the inside is a storage portion 4, and includes left and right side plates 6, a bottom wall portion 7, a top plate 8, and a rear plate 9. . A shelf board 13 is provided in the storage unit 4.

  The front door 3 is attached to the front side of the cabinet body 2 and is configured to rotate about the axis of the hinge 14 along either the side plate 6 or the top plate 8 of the cabinet body 2.

  As shown in FIG. 2A, the lower surface 15 of the front door 3 includes a lower surface 18 of the left and right side plates 6 and a lower surface 19 of the bottom wall portion 7 (except for a notched portion 23 described later), It is formed to be at the same height.

  As a characteristic configuration of the upper cabinet 1 of the present invention, a front end portion of the bottom wall portion 7 of the cabinet body 2 is partially cut away to provide a cutout portion 23 (see FIG. 2B). Thus, the clue part 24 is formed.

  More specifically, the notched portion 23 has a lower surface 20 (see FIG. 2B) whose lower surface 19 is other than the front end portion of the bottom wall portion 7, and the lower surface 15 of the front door 3. Further, the front end portion of the bottom wall portion 7 is cut out so as to be higher than the lower surface 18 of the side plate 6.

  The notched portion 23 has a lower surface 20 and a back surface 28. By forming the notched portion 23 in this way, the clue portion 24 is provided with a clue space 25 (see FIG. 2A) behind the front door 3. That is, the clue part 24 includes a part 23 that is notched to open the door by placing a hand near the lower end of the back surface of the front door 3 and a space 25 formed in this part.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2A, a protective cover 29 for protecting the notched portion 23 is attached to the clue unit 24. That is, at least a protective cover 29 that covers the front surface 21, the lower surface 20, and the back surface 28 from which the base material of the wooden member that is the material of the bottom wall 7 is exposed is attached. The structure about the protective cover 29 and its attachment is demonstrated in FIG. 2, FIG.

  FIG. 2 (b) shows a configuration in which a resin wood end tape is used as the protective cover 29 and is attached to the notched portion 23 of the bottom wall portion 7. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), the front end 21, the lower end 20, and the back end 28 where the base material of the wooden member is exposed are respectively attached to the end tapes 32, 33, 34 with resin adhesive. A protective cover 29 is formed by pasting.

  FIG. 3A is a diagram for explaining a protective cover 36 and a mounting structure thereof according to a modification of the first embodiment. The protective cover 36 of this modification is a resin protective cover that is integrally formed in advance corresponding to the shape of the cutout portion 23, and is attached to the cutout portion 23 with an adhesive. . Although the protective cover 36 can be securely fixed by bonding, bonding is not essential.

  The protective cover 36 includes an upper surface protective portion 38 and a lower surface protective portion 39 in addition to the main body portion 37 that protects the cutout portion 23. The upper surface protection portion 38 is a portion that covers the upper surface 42 of the front end portion of the bottom wall portion 7. The lower surface protection portion 39 is a portion that covers the lower surface 43 adjacent to the notched portion 23 in the bottom wall portion 7.

  After the adhesive is applied to the inner surface of the protective cover 36, as shown in FIG. 3A, the cutout portion 23 in the clue portion 24, the upper surface 42 of the front end portion of the bottom wall portion 7, and the cutout are provided. The bottom wall portion 7 is fitted and pasted to the bottom wall portion 7 so as to cover the lower surface 43 adjacent to the notched portion 23. With such a configuration, the protective cover 36 is attached to the bottom wall portion 7 more stably.

  FIG. 3B is a view for explaining a protective cover 45 and a mounting structure thereof according to another modification. The protective cover 45 is formed so that the upper surface protective part 38 has a longer dimension. The protective cover 45 is attached to the bottom wall part 7 after being attached thereto, and then the tucker 46 passes through the upper surface protective part 38 from above. It is a structure that is driven in and fixed. Thereby, the protective cover 45 is attached to the bottom wall part 7 more firmly.

  Note that the protective cover 48 shown in FIG. 3C is not formed with the upper surface protective portion 38 and the lower surface protective portion 39 like the protective cover 45, and the base material of the wood member constituting the bottom wall portion 7 is exposed. This is a configuration provided with a protective portion 49 (a portion corresponding to the main body portion 37 shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B) corresponding only to the front surface 21, the lower surface 20 and the back surface 28. Such a protective cover 48 is fitted and attached to the bottom wall portion 7 so as to cover the notched portion.

(Function)
The operation of the upper cabinet 1 according to the first embodiment having the above configuration will be described. When using the upper cabinet 1, when opening the front door 3, a hand is inserted from below into a clue space 25 formed behind the lower end of the front door 3, and the rear surface of the front door 3 is moved forward by hand. It can be opened easily by pulling.

  As shown in FIG. 2A, the lower surface 15 of the front door 3 is formed so as to be at the same height as the lower surface 18 of the left and right side plates 6 and the lower surface 19 of the bottom wall portion 7. There is no difference in level, and the design is simple with a simple structure.

  Further, when the upper cabinet 1 is installed adjacent to a range hood (not shown), the lower end of the cabinet body 2 (the lower surface 19 of the bottom wall portion 7) and the lower surface 15 of the front door 3 are respectively connected to the range. Since there is no step between the bottom of the hood, it has a simple and clean design.

  The cut-out portion 23 is covered with a protective cover 29 so that the wood base is not exposed, and thus has a design. Therefore, even if the cut-out portion 23 enters the field of view, it does not look good. There is no such thing.

  Further, since the wood base of the cut-out portion 23 is not exposed by the protective cover 29, waterproofness and moisture proofing are ensured, and corrosion and deterioration caused by direct contact of water and moisture with the wood base. Can be suppressed.

(Example 2)
A second embodiment of the upper cabinet according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. Since the upper cabinet of the second embodiment is substantially the same as the upper cabinet of the first embodiment, the description will focus on different characteristic configurations.

  In the upper cabinet of the second embodiment, a groove portion 52 extending in a direction parallel to the upper surface 42 and the lower surface 43 of the bottom wall portion 7 is formed in the notched portion 23 as shown in FIG. . More specifically, a groove portion 52 is formed from the back surface 28 toward the inside of the bottom wall portion 7 along the lower surface 20 of the notched portion 23.

  On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the protective cover 55 that protects the notched portion 23 of the bottom wall portion 7 is, as shown in FIG. 4B, a protective cover 45 (see FIG. 4) of another modification of the second embodiment. 3 (b)), an upper surface protection portion 38 and a lower surface protection portion 39 are provided, and an insertion portion 56 to be inserted into the groove portion 52 is further provided.

  As with the protective cover 45 shown in FIG. 3B, the protective cover 55 is applied not only to the inner surface of the protective cover 55 but also to the surface of the insertion portion 56, as shown in FIG. 4C. In addition, the insertion part 56 is inserted into the groove part 52 and is attached to the bottom wall part 7 by being attached.

  Thereby, the protective cover 55 covers the cutout portion 23 and the upper surface 42 and the lower surface 43 of the bottom wall portion 7. Since the insertion part 56 is inserted into the groove part 52 and bonded, the protective cover 55 can be attached to the bottom wall part 7 more strongly.

  By the way, if the protective cover is configured as shown in the protective cover 45 (see FIG. 3B) in which the insertion portion 56 and the groove portion 52 are not provided, the lower surface 20 and the rear surface 28 in the cutout portion 23. There may be a gap between the protective cover and the corner portion.

  The reason is that it is difficult to manufacture the corners of the lower surface 20 and the back surface 28 and the corners of the protective cover 45 corresponding to the corners so that the gaps are formed between the corners. This is because it may occur.

  When such a gap is generated, there arises a problem that the protective cover is easily peeled off from the corner. However, according to the protective cover 55 of the second embodiment, since the insertion portion 56 is inserted into the groove portion 52 and bonded, the above problem is solved.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4D, the tucker 46 may be driven from the upper side through the upper surface protection portion 38 and the insertion portion 56 and driven into the bottom wall portion 7. By setting it as such a structure, the protective cover 55 is attached to the bottom wall part 7 more firmly.

  As mentioned above, although the best form for implementing the upper cabinet which concerns on this invention was demonstrated based on the Example, this invention is not limited to such an Example, It was described in the claim It goes without saying that there are various embodiments within the scope of technical matters. In addition, the clue part does not need to be formed in the entire width direction of the bottom wall part of the cabinet, and may be formed only in a part.

  Since the upper cabinet which concerns on this invention is the above structures, it can apply not only to the cabinet installed in a kitchen but to the cabinet installed in other spaces of a living room, a study, and other buildings.
