Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a kitchen bay window device having a window function as well as a storage function for kitchen utensils such as tableware.

Conventional configurations and their problems Generally, bay windows in kitchens are used only for daylighting.
It does not have the function of storing goods. By the way, the bay window protrudes outward from the kitchen and takes up a considerable amount of space, so although it is possible to store items in this area, there is a problem in that it does not allow daylight.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in consideration of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a bay window device that has both the functions of lighting and storing articles, and allows easy loading and unloading of articles.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention horizontally arranges a storage space that is visually closed off from the kitchen space and an open space that opens into the kitchen interior in the front, and the open space is provided with a window. A bay window body with
This bay window device for a kitchen is provided with a rack unit that is movable laterally within the bay window main body, and further provided with a rotating shelf that is movable toward the front in an open space on the rack unit.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Reference numeral 1 denotes a box-shaped bay window main body, with one half in the horizontal direction serving as a storage space 2, and the other half serving as an open space 3. The storage space 2 is closed on five sides and has an opening 4 only on one side on the open space 3 side. The open space 3 is closed on all four sides except for the front and back, with the front opening 5 facing the kitchen space A and the rear opening 7 facing the outdoors B through a cutout 6a in the inner wall 6 of the house wall. Reference numeral 8 indicates a rack unit movably installed inside the bay window main body 1. It consists of a rack body 12 which is movable back and forth using the rails 11 of a case 10 as a guide, and a rotating shelf 14 which is rotatable forward through hinges 13 of the rack body 12 in the open space 3. The rack body 12 has a plurality of upper and lower draining shelves 15, and the rotating shelf 14 has a plurality of loading shelves 16. 17 is a handle for operating the rack body 12, and 18 is a glass window.

Further, the bay window main body 1 is fitted into a cutout 19a made in an outer wall 19 of a house wall, and is fixed to a pillar 20 or the like. 21 is a sink installed in the kitchen interior A corresponding to the open space 3, and 22 is a gas cabinet.

In the above configuration, in FIGS. 2 to 4, the rack unit 8 is moved to the open space 3 side, and the rack body 1 is moved to the side of the open space 3.
2 is moved to the A side of the kitchen interior, and the rotating shelf is rotated and protruded toward the front. Here, the rack body 12
Also, tableware etc. can be easily taken in and out of the rotating shelf 14.

Next, from this state, move the rotating shelf 14 to the rack body 12.
If the front end of the rack body 12 is brought into contact with the rack body 12 and the rack body 12 is moved rearward and further leftward, the rack body 12 will be hidden in the storage space 2 as shown in FIG.
Therefore, the tableware etc. in the rack 12 are stored in the kitchen room A.
The open space 3 is not visible from the outside and has a good appearance, and the open space 3 receives sufficient light from its open state.

In addition, the rotating shelf 14 has a rack body 12 that moves toward the front.
Since it is attached to the sink 21, it protrudes toward the A side of the kitchen interior and can be rotated 180 degrees above the sink 21, making it easy to take in and out dishes, etc.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the embodiments above, according to the present invention, kitchen utensils such as tableware can be rationally stored using the bay window, and the rack body is usually stored in the storage space and outside. Since it cannot be seen from the outside, the kitchen becomes very stylish, which is especially effective in modern homes where the living room is combined into one room.
Furthermore, by storing the rack in the storage space, it can fully demonstrate its intended function as a bay window. Furthermore, since the rotating shelf protrudes forward from the open space and rotates above the sink etc., various effects can be obtained such as easy loading and unloading of tableware etc.
