Description

The present invention relates to storage fixtures.

In schools, classes may be conducted using electronic devices (such as laptops and tablets) assigned to each student. As a result, efforts are underway to develop storage fixtures that can store electronic devices together when not in use and allow students to take out their own devices when in use.

As an example of this type of storage fixture, the following Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration in which a shelf body on which electronic devices are placed is provided inside a storage unit having a double-hinged front panel and a removable rear panel. In the configuration of the following Patent Document 1, a socket panel on which a power socket can be attached is provided behind the shelf body and in front of the rear panel.

Patent No. 6095418

However, in the above-mentioned conventional technology, a separate outlet panel is provided inside the storage unit, so there is still room for improvement in terms of simplifying the configuration and reducing costs.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a storage fixture that can be simplified and reduced in cost.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention employs the following aspects.
A storage fixture according to one embodiment of the present invention forms a storage space for storing a number of portable electronic devices and wiring connected to the electronic devices, and comprises a housing having an opening facing forward for inserting and removing the electronic devices from the storage space, and a wiring connection portion to which the wiring is electrically connected is attached in a state exposed within the storage space, facing the opening in the front-to-back direction of the opening of the housing and attached to a rear wall portion constituting the rear surface of the housing.

According to this aspect, by attaching the wiring connection section to the rear wall portion itself that constitutes the rear surface of the housing, it is possible to simplify the configuration and reduce costs compared to conventional cases where a separate outlet panel or the like is provided inside the housing.

In the storage fixture of the above aspect, it is preferable that the wiring connection portion is attached to the rear wall portion with the socket into which the wiring is inserted facing forward.
According to this aspect, since the direction of insertion and removal of the wire is set in the front-rear direction, it is possible to improve operability when inserting and removing the wire into and from the wire connection part through the opening. Also, when the wire is routed forward from the wire connection part, it is possible to prevent the connection end of the wire with the wire connection part from being bent.

In the storage fixture of the above-described embodiment, it is preferable that the rear wall portion is formed from a magnetic material, the wiring connection portion is removably attached to the rear wall portion via a magnet, and the rear wall portion is provided with a regulating portion that protrudes forward from the rear wall portion and regulates movement of the wiring connection portion on the rear wall portion.
According to this aspect, for example, when attaching the wiring connection portion to the rear wall portion through the opening, the wiring connection portion is brought close to the rear wall portion with the magnet facing rearward, which makes it possible to easily attach the wiring connection portion to the rear wall portion.
In addition, by restricting the movement of the wire connection portion on the rear wall by the restricting portion, rattling or falling off of the wire connection portion from the rear wall can be suppressed, thereby maintaining a good connection state between the wire connection portion and the wires.

In the storage fixture of the above aspect, it is preferable that the housing is provided with rolling members capable of running on the floor surface.
According to this aspect, the portability of the storage fixture can be improved, thereby improving usability.
Furthermore, in the storage fixture of this embodiment, the movement of the wiring connection part on the rear wall part is regulated by the regulating part, so that even when the storage fixture runs on the floor surface via the rolling member, the wiring connection part can be prevented from falling off or rattling.

In the storage fixture of the above-mentioned embodiment, it is preferable that the wiring connection parts are attached to the rear wall portion in multiple numbers, the wirings routed from the multiple electronic devices are grouped and connected to the multiple wiring connection parts respectively, and a charger is provided which performs charging processing on the electronic devices grouped by the multiple wiring connection parts in rotation.
According to this aspect, it is easy to maintain a uniform state of charge for each electronic device stored in the storage fixture.
Furthermore, grouping by power strip makes it easier to manage rotational charging compared to grouping by wiring.

In the storage fixture of the above-described embodiment, it is preferable that the housing divides the storage space in the vertical direction and is provided with a plurality of mounting sections on which the electronic devices can be placed, and that the charger is placed on any one of the plurality of mounting sections.
According to this aspect, by placing the charger in the same location as the electronic device, it is possible to make the storage fixture smaller and simpler compared to a case in which the charger installation location is provided separately from the placement section.

In the storage fixture of the above-mentioned aspect, a wiring guide is provided in a portion of the storage space located above the placement portion, and it is preferable that the wiring guide comprises a guide body supported by the housing, and an anti-slip member supported by the guide body to guide the wiring in the forward/backward direction and having a friction coefficient greater than that of the guide body.
According to this aspect, back and forth movement of the wire can be reduced when connecting or disconnecting the wire from the electronic device, thereby preventing the wire from coming loose from the wire connection portion.

The above aspects allow for simplification and cost reduction.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the embodiments and modifications described below, the same reference numerals may be used to designate corresponding configurations, and the description may be omitted. In the following description, expressions indicating relative or absolute arrangements, such as "parallel," "orthogonal," "center," and "coaxial," do not only strictly indicate such arrangements, but also indicate a state in which there is a relative displacement with an angle or distance to the extent that a tolerance or the same function is obtained. In this embodiment, "facing" does not only mean that the orthogonal directions (normal directions) of the two surfaces are aligned with each other, but also includes cases in which the orthogonal directions intersect with each other.

[Storage fixture 1]
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the storage fixture 1. Fig. 2 is a front view of the storage fixture 1 showing a state in which the door 32 is in an open position. In the following drawings, electronic devices E, a charging cable 45, a tap cable 11c, etc. are omitted as appropriate.
The storage fixture 1 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 includes a fixture body 10, a table tap (wiring connection portion) 11, and a charger 12. The storage fixture 1 is installed in various facilities such as classrooms. The storage fixture 1 can store multiple portable electronic devices E together and can charge the stored electronic devices E. The electronic device E can be, for example, a chargeable device, not limited to an operating terminal such as a notebook PC or a tablet PC, but may also be a battery itself. In the following description, the direction perpendicular to the floor surface F on which the storage fixture 1 is installed is the up-down direction (arrow UP is upward), and the directions perpendicular to the up-down direction are the front-rear direction (arrow FR is forward) and the left-right direction (arrow LH is left).

<Main fixture 10>
Fig. 3 is a side view of the storage fixture 1. In Fig. 3, the left side wall portion 31c is omitted for convenience.
1 to 3, the fixture body 10 is configured to allow multiple electronic devices E to be inserted and removed. The fixture body 10 includes a housing 31, a door 32, a shelf (mounting section) 33, a restriction bar 34, a partition section 35, and a wiring guide 36.

The housing 31 is formed in a box shape with a front end opening 31a that opens forward. That is, the housing 31 has a bottom wall portion 31b, a side wall portion 31c, a top wall portion 31d, and a rear wall portion 31e. Each of the walls 31b to 31e is formed by combining magnetic plate materials (e.g., iron, etc.) with screws, etc.
The bottom wall portion 31b is formed in a rectangular shape with the left-right direction as the long side and the front-rear direction as the short side in a plan view. Casters (rolling members) 37 are attached to the bottom wall portion (mounting portion) 31b. The casters 37 are provided, for example, corresponding to each corner of the bottom wall portion 31b. The casters 37 roll on the floor surface F, so that the storage fixture 1 can run on the floor surface F.

The side walls 31c extend upward from both left and right edges of the bottom wall 31b.
The top wall 31d faces the bottom wall 31b in the up-down direction. The top wall 31d bridges the upper ends of the pair of side walls 31c. The area surrounded by the front edges of the bottom wall 31b, the side walls 31c, and the top wall 31d forms a front-end opening 31a.

As shown in FIG. 1, a handle 38 is provided at the first end (the right side in the illustrated example) in the left-right direction of the top wall portion 31d. A plurality of handles 38 (for example, two) are provided in a row in the front-rear direction. Each handle 38 is fitted into a through hole (not shown) provided in the top wall portion 31d. The handle 38 has a recess 38a that opens upward. The storage fixture 1 is moved on the floor surface F by pushing or pulling the storage fixture 1 with a finger inserted into the recess 38a. As in this embodiment, by providing the handle 38 on the top wall portion 31d, the side wall portion 31c can be formed smoothly. However, the handle 38 may be provided on both ends of the top wall portion 31d or on the side wall portion 31c.

2 and 3, the rear wall 31e constitutes the rear surface (outermost surface) of the housing 31. The rear wall 31e faces the front end opening 31a in the front-rear direction. The rear wall 31e closes the rear end opening of the housing 31 (the portion surrounded by the rear edges of the bottom wall 31b, the side wall 31c, and the top wall 31d). The rear wall 31e is fixed to the side wall 31c, etc., with screws or the like. The space surrounded by the bottom wall 31b, the side wall 31c, the top wall 31d, and the rear wall 31e forms a storage space S1 that communicates with the outside through the front end opening 31a. The rear wall 31e may be provided detachably by, for example, engaging with a claw or the like.

As shown in FIG. 1, the door 32 opens and closes the front end opening 31a of the housing 31, and together with the housing 31, constitutes the exterior of the storage fixture 1. The door 32 is, for example, a double-door (double-leaf) hinged door. Specifically, the door 32 has one door panel 32a rotatably attached to one side wall portion 31c, and the other door panel 32b rotatably attached to the other side wall portion 31c. Each panel 32a, 32b is provided with a grip for opening and closing the door 32, a heat dissipation hole for dissipating heat within the storage space S1, and the like. The door 32 may be a sliding door, etc.

3, the shelf board 33 divides the storage space S1 in the upper and lower direction. The shelf board 33 includes a shelf body 33a and a rear shelf wall 33b.
The shelf body 33a is a plate-like member extending in the left-right direction and having a thickness in the up-down direction. The shelf body 33a is bridged between the side walls 31c. The rear end edge of the shelf body 33a is separated forward from the rear wall 31e. Therefore, a gap S2 is formed between the rear end edge of the shelf body 33a and the rear wall 31e.

The shelf rear wall 33b extends upward from the rear edge of the shelf body 33a. In this embodiment, the bottom wall 31b and the shelf 33 each constitute a mounting section on which electronic device E can be placed. Therefore, in the following description, when there is no need to distinguish between the bottom wall 31b and the shelf 33, they may be collectively referred to as the mounting section 30.

The restriction bar 34 is provided above each mounting section 30 at a position corresponding to the rear of the mounting section 30. The restriction bar 34 is a rectangular cylindrical member extending in the left-right direction. The restriction bar 34 crosses the space above each mounting section 30 in the left-right direction and bridges between the side wall sections 31c. The restriction bar 34 restricts the backward movement of the electronic device E placed on the mounting section 30 by abutting against it from the front.

The partitions 35 are attached to the mounting portion 30 in multiples, and divide the space above the mounting portion 30 in the left-right direction. The partitions 35 are formed, for example, in the shape of a plate extending in the up-down direction with the left-right direction being the thickness direction. The partitions 35 are detachably attached to the mounting portion 30 or the restricting bar 34, for example, via a locking claw or the like. The partitions 35 may be fixed to the mounting portion 30 with a screw or the like. The partitions 35 may be formed from a resin material or the like, or a metal material or the like.

As shown in FIG. 2, the partitions 35 are disposed at equal intervals over the entire left-right direction on the bottom wall portion 31b.
On the shelf board 33, the partitions 35 are disposed at equal intervals only on the portion located on the right side of the center in the left-right direction. Therefore, on the shelf board 33, the portion located on the left side is a blank area where the partitions 35 are not disposed.

In the fixture body 10, each mounting section 30 is configured so that electronic devices E can be inserted and removed separately between adjacent partition sections 35 in the left-right direction. As a result, the electronic devices E are supported from below by the mounting sections 30 and stored in the storage space S1 while leaning against the partition sections 35. The partition sections 35 may separate multiple electronic devices E. The partition sections 35 may also be trays or the like that can accommodate multiple electronic devices E. In this case, the trays may be configured so that they can be inserted and removed, for example, through the front end opening 31a.

2 and 3 , the wiring guides 36 are provided in the storage space S1 in the space above each mounting portion 30. The wiring guides 36 include a front guide (guide body) 41, a rear guide (guide body) 42, and an intervening member (anti-slip member) 43.
The front guide 41 is made of a plate material such as a metal material and is formed in a C-shape that opens upward in cross section when viewed from the left-right direction. The front guide 41 is provided at the front end in the space above each mounting portion 30. The front guide 41 crosses the space above the mounting portion 30 in the left-right direction and bridges between the side wall portions 31c.

The rear guide 42 is formed from a plate material such as a metal material. The rear guide 42 is provided behind the front guide 41 in the space above each mounting section 30. The rear guide 42 crosses the space above the mounting section 30 in the left-right direction and bridges between the side wall sections 31c. In the illustrated example, the front guide 41 and the rear guide 42 are located at the same height. The wiring guide 36 may be in the form of a tray that divides the space above the mounting section 30 into upper and lower sections.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the wiring guide 36. As shown in FIG.
3 and 4, the intervening member 43 is attached on the front guide 41. The intervening member 43 functions as a cushioning material and an anti-slip member between the charging cable (wiring) 45 attached to and detached from the electronic device E and the front guide 41, and is made of a soft material having a higher friction coefficient than the front guide 41. As such a material, for example, a polyurethane porous material (sponge) or other soft material that can be elastically deformed is used. Note that, for example, rubber, resin material, nonwoven fabric, etc. can also be used as the intervening member 43.

The intervening member 43 is formed in a band shape in the left-right direction along the front guide 41. The intervening member 43 is fitted into the front guide 41 from above. The intervening member 43 extends in the left-right direction above the front guide 41 while protruding upward from the front guide 41. The intervening member 43 may be attached to the front guide 41 by adhesion or the like. The intervening member 43 may be provided on both the front guide 41 and the rear guide 42, or only on the rear guide 42.

As shown in FIG. 4, the interposition member 43 has a plurality of vertical slits 43a. A plurality of charging cables 45 are inserted into the vertical slits 43a. The vertical slits 43a are formed at intervals in the left-right direction to correspond to the electronic device E to be placed on the placement section 30.

The vertical slit 43a penetrates the intervening member 43 in the front-rear direction and extends in the up-down direction. The upper end of the vertical slit 43a opens at the upper surface of the intervening member 43. The lower end of the vertical slit 43a is preferably located above the lower surface of the intervening member 43, and in this embodiment, is located above the front guide 41.

2, the charger 12 groups multiple electronic devices E stored in the fixture body 10, for example, and charges the electronic devices E in rotation for each group. The charger 12 is placed in a blank area (left side) on the shelf 33. The power cable of the charger 12 is routed downward inside the fixture body 10 through the gap S2, and then pulled out to the outside of the fixture body 10 through a pull-out opening (not shown) formed at the bottom of the side wall portion 31c. The power cable is connected to an external power source outside the fixture body 10. The charger 12 may charge all the electronic devices E at once, without grouping the multiple electronic devices E.

The table tap 11 relays between the multiple electronic devices E and the charger 12 while collecting the charging cables 45 of the electronic devices E for each group described above between the multiple electronic devices E and the charger 12. Multiple sockets 11a are formed on one surface (front surface) of the table tap 11. A magnet 11b is provided on the opposing surface (rear surface) of the table tap 11 that faces the one surface. The table tap 11 is detachably attached to the rear wall portion 31e via the magnet 11b with the one surface facing forward, and is exposed within the storage fixture 1 (storage space S1).

In this embodiment, multiple table taps 11 are assigned to each mounting section 30. Of the multiple table taps 11, the table taps 11 assigned to the bottom wall section 31b constitute the first tap group 50A. On the other hand, of the multiple table taps 11, the table taps 11 assigned to the shelf board 33 constitute the second tap group 50B.

The first tap group 50A is provided in the lower part of the rear wall 31e (the part located between the bottom wall 31b and the shelf 33). The first tap group 50A is composed of, for example, three table taps 11. The table taps 11 are arranged with a gap between them in the vertical direction and offset from each other in the horizontal direction. Specifically, the table taps 11 constituting the first tap group 50A are arranged in a stepped manner such that, of the table taps 11 adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction, the table tap 11 located on the left is located lower and the table tap 11 located on the right is located higher.

The second tap group 50B is provided in the upper part of the rear wall 31e (the part located between the shelf board 33 and the top wall 31d). The second tap group 50B is composed of, for example, two table taps 11. The table taps 11 are arranged with a gap between them in the vertical direction and offset from each other in the horizontal direction. Specifically, the table taps 11 constituting the second tap group 50B are arranged in a stepped manner such that, among the table taps 11 adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction, the table tap 11 located on the left side is located at the top and the table tap 11 located on the right side is located at the bottom. In the illustrated example, the table taps 11 adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction partially overlap each other in a plan view. However, the table taps 11 adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction may be arranged in positions that do not overlap each other in a plan view.

In each of the tap groups 50A and 50B, the rightmost table tap 11 is closest to the charger 12 in the vertical direction and farthest from the left. On the other hand, in each of the tap groups 50A and 50B, the leftmost table tap 11 is farthest from the charger 12 in the vertical direction and closest from the left. Therefore, the closer the table tap 11 is to the charger 12 in the horizontal direction, the farther it is placed in the vertical direction, and the closer the table tap 11 is to the charger 12 in the vertical direction, the farther it is placed in the horizontal direction. However, the layout of the table taps 11 can be changed as appropriate. Also, there may be one table tap 11 for each placement unit 30, or three or more.

The power strip cables 11c extending from each power strip 11 are routed along the rear wall 31e and then routed to the blank area of the shelf 33. The power strip cables 11c are each connected to a charger 12 in the blank area.

The charging cables 45 respectively connect between the table tap 11 and each electronic device E. Hereinafter, the routing of one of the multiple charging cables 45 will be described.
3, a plug 45a is provided at a first end (rear end) of the charging cable 45. The plug 45a is inserted from the front into the socket 11a of the power strip 11. The charging cable 45 is routed forward from the power strip 11 and then extends forward within the storage space S1 while being supported by the wiring guide 36.

As shown in FIG. 4, the charging cable 45 is held in the vertical slit 43a of the intervening member 43 on the wiring guide 36. For example, the charging cable 45 is inserted into the vertical slit 43a through the upper end opening of the vertical slit 43a. This limits the movement of the charging cable 45 relative to the intervening member 43.

3, the charging cable 45 hangs down in front of the interposition member 43 and is then connected to the electronic device E. Specifically, a connector 45b is provided at the second end of the charging cable 45. The connector 45b is inserted from the front into a connector receptacle (not shown) provided on the electronic device E. This allows power from an external power source to be supplied to the electronic device E via the charger 12 and the charging cable 45, thereby charging the electronic device E. Note that, on the shelf 33, the AC adapter 45c provided at the middle part of the charging cable 45 and the surplus part of the charging cable 45 are arranged in the part located behind the restriction bar 34. On the other hand, on the bottom wall 31b, the AC adapter 45c and the surplus part of the charging cable 45 are arranged in the part located behind the restriction bar 34.

The multiple charging cables 45 are connected together at a first end to one table tap 11. The multiple charging cables 45 are connected individually to each electronic device E at a second end. The multiple charging cables 45 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction by being individually housed in the vertical slits 43a between the table tap 11 and the electronic device E.

FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VV in FIG.
5, the rear wall 31e is provided with a restricting portion 60 that restricts downward movement of each power strip 11. The restricting portion 60 is formed by pressing or the like to cause a portion of the rear wall 31e that is located below the mounting location of the power strip 11 to bulge forward. Specifically, the restricting portion 60 bulges in a semi-spherical shape from the front surface of the rear wall 31e.

As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of (e.g., two) restricting portions 60 are provided on one table tap 11 at intervals in the left-right direction in a front view. The restricting portions 60 restrict downward movement of the table tap 11 on the rear wall portion 31e by contacting the lower edge of the table tap 11 from above. The restricting portions 60 may be provided above or to the side of the table tap 11. The restricting portions 60 may also extend linearly in the left-right direction. Heat dissipation holes or the like may be appropriately provided in the rear wall portion 31e at positions that do not overlap with the restricting portions 60.

[How to use storage fixture 1]
Next, a method of using the above-mentioned storage fixture 1 will be described. In the following description, the initial state is a state in which the electronic device E is stored (charged) in the storage fixture 1, and the removal and storage of the electronic device E will be described.
When removing the electronic device E from the storage fixture 1, the door 32 is first opened and the front end opening 31a is opened. Next, the connector 45b inserted into the electronic device E is unplugged and the electronic device E is removed through the front end opening 31a. This allows the user to use the electronic device E on a desk or the like within the facility.

After using the electronic device E, the electronic device E is stored in the storage fixture 1. Specifically, the electronic device E is stored between the adjacent partitions 35 in the placement section 30, and then the charging cable 45 is connected to the electronic device E. The door 32 is then closed, and the electronic device E is stored in the storage fixture 1.

The electronic devices E are charged via the charger 12 while they are stored in the storage fixture 1. Specifically, the charger 12 groups multiple electronic devices E into groups, for example, for each table tap 11, and charges the electronic devices E belonging to each group in rotation.

In this manner, in this embodiment, the rear wall portion 31e of the housing 31 is configured so that the table tap 11 is attached in a state where it is exposed within the storage space S1.
According to this configuration, by attaching the table tap 11 to the rear wall portion 31e itself that forms the back surface of the housing 31, it is possible to simplify the configuration and reduce costs compared to the conventional case in which a separate outlet panel or the like is provided inside the housing.

In this embodiment, the power strip 11 is configured to be attached to the rear wall portion 31e with the socket 11a facing forward.
According to this configuration, the insertion/removal direction of the charging cable 45 is set in the front-rear direction, which improves operability when inserting/removing the charging cable 45 into/from the table tap 11 through the front end opening 31a. Furthermore, when the charging cable 45 is routed forward from the table tap 11, bending of the connection end of the charging cable 45 with the table tap 11 (the portion around the plug 45a) can be prevented.

In this embodiment, the table tap 11 is removably attached to the rear wall portion 31e via the magnet 11b, and the rear wall portion 31e is provided with a restricting portion 60 that protrudes forward from the rear wall portion 31e and restricts downward movement relative to the rear wall portion 31e.
According to this configuration, for example, when attaching the power strip 11 to the rear wall 31e through the front end opening 31a, the power strip 11 is brought close to the rear wall 31e with the magnet 11b facing backward, so that the power strip 11 can be easily attached to the rear wall 31e.
Furthermore, by restricting the downward movement of the table tap 11 by the restricting portion 60, it is possible to prevent the table tap 11 from rattling or falling off from the rear wall portion 31 e. Therefore, the connection state between the table tap 11 and the charging cable 45 can be maintained in a good condition.
In particular, by forming the regulating portion 60 by bulging a portion of the rear wall portion 31e and forming it integrally with the rear wall portion 31e, an environmentally friendly structure is achieved that is lighter in weight and has fewer parts than if the regulating portion were formed as a separate member from the rear wall portion 31e.

In this embodiment, the housing 31 is provided with casters 37 that enable it to run on the floor surface F.
According to this configuration, the portability of the storage fixture 1 can be improved, and therefore, usability can be improved.
Furthermore, in the storage fixture 1 of this embodiment, the movement of the table tap 11 on the rear wall portion 31e is regulated by the regulating portion 60, so that even when the storage fixture 1 runs on the floor surface F via the casters 37, the table tap 11 can be prevented from falling off or rattling.

In this embodiment, the charger 12 is provided for charging the electronic devices E grouped into a plurality of table taps 11 in rotation.
With this configuration, it is easy to maintain the charging state of each electronic device E stored within the storage fixture 1 uniformly.
Moreover, grouping by power strip 11 makes it easier to manage rotational charging compared to grouping by charging cable 45.

In this embodiment, each table tap 11 is configured such that the closer the table tap 11 is to the charger 12 in the left-right direction, the farther the table tap 11 is positioned in the up-down direction, and the closer the table tap 11 is to the charger 12 in the up-down direction, the farther the table tap 11 is positioned in the left-right direction.
According to this configuration, even when multiple table taps 11 are provided, the layout can be such that the distance between each table tap 11 and the charger 12 is equal between each table tap 11. This makes it easier to make the surplus of the tap cable 11c between each table tap 11 and the charger 12 equal between each table tap 11. As a result, the appearance inside the storage fixture 1 can be improved.

In this embodiment, the charger 12 is placed on any one of the placement sections 30 .
According to this configuration, by placing the charger 12 in the same location as the electronic device E, it is possible to make the storage fixture 1 smaller and simpler compared to a case in which the installation location of the charger 12 is provided separately from the mounting section 30.

In the present embodiment, the wiring guide 36 includes the front guide 41 and the interposed member 43 having a friction coefficient greater than that of the front guide 41 .
According to this configuration, it is possible to reduce back and forth movement of the charging cable 45 when connecting or disconnecting the electronic device E and the charging cable 45. This makes it possible to prevent the charging cable 45 from coming loose from the power strip 11.

(Other Modifications)
Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. Addition, omission, substitution, and other modifications of the configuration are possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention. The present invention is not limited by the above description, but is limited only by the scope of the attached claims.
In the above embodiment, the power strip 11 is supported by the restricting portion 60 integrally formed with the rear wall portion 31e, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. The power strip 11 may be attached to the rear wall portion 31e only by the magnet 11b.
