Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a bay window device having a window function as well as a storage function for storing dishes, books, etc.

In general, this type of bay window device is simply a space that protrudes to the outdoors, and has almost no function of storing things; the protruding space is only used to place objects such as flowerpots. It's nothing more than that. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a structure in which a rack 21 is installed within a bay window frame 20 has been proposed. The rack 21 is suspended from a known rail (not shown) and is movable left and right within the bay window frame 20.
In other words, the user can freely move between a space 20a facing the building window 22 and a space 20b located on the side thereof and covered by the wall 23 on the indoor side.
According to this configuration, each shelf 21a, 21 of the rack 21
Since things can be placed in the bay window frame 20, the inside of the bay window frame 20 can be utilized to a great extent as a storage space for things. Furthermore, if the rack 21 is stored in the space 20b, the items placed on each shelf 21a, 21b, etc. will not be exposed to the outside, so it will not be unsightly, and the sunlight from the window 24 provided in the bay window frame 20 will also be reduced. It is unhindered.

Although the bay window device has advantages as described above, it has a drawback in that objects such as flower pots cannot be left in the bay window space 20a as in the past. In other words, the rack 21 cannot be pulled out to the bay window space 20a unless the object placed in the bay window space 20a is removed. Therefore, each time the rack 21 is drawn out, a flower pot or the like must be removed from the bay window space 20a, so it is practically impossible to place objects such as flower pots in the bay window space 20a. , when the rack 21 is stored in the space 20b, the space 20a is empty.

The present invention provides a bay window device that has the advantage of conventional bay window devices, that is, objects such as flower pots (ornaments) can be left in place, in addition to the function of storing objects.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In the figure, 1 is a wall on the indoor side, 2 is a window hole formed in a part of the wall 1, 3 is a hanging cabinet attached to the wall 1, 4 is a sink, and 5 is a faucet. A bay window frame 7 is attached to the wall 6 on the outdoor side using pillars or the like so as to protrude outward. One side of this bay window frame 7 is covered by the wall 1 on the indoor side and serves as a storage section 9 for the rack 8, and the other side faces the window hole 2 and serves as a take-out section 10 for the rack 8. ing. Further, a glass door 11 is installed on the bay window frame 7 surface corresponding to the window hole 2 so as to be openable and closable, so as to let in light. Furthermore, a rail (not shown) is installed on the inner surface of the upper part of the bay window frame 7, extending from the storage section 9 to the take-out section 10. It moves freely. A stopper fitting 12 is attached to the side of the rack 8, and when the stopper fitting 12 and the locking portion 7a of the bay window frame 7 come into contact with each other, when the rack 8 is pulled out, the front plate 13 of the rack 8 and the front plate 13 An article placement space 14 is secured between the window hole 2 and the inner side plate corresponding to the window hole 2 . The lateral length A of the rack 8 is
The rack 8 is formed to be larger than the length D obtained by subtracting the length C of the article placement space 14 from the lateral length B of the article placement space 14 to follow the storage amount of the rack 8 cut by the article placement space 14. Reference numeral 15 denotes an opening/closing door, which is provided opposite to the rear front surface of the rack 8 to facilitate taking in and out of stored items at the rear of the rack 8. 16 is a handle provided on the front plate 13 of the rack 8, 17 is a ventilation hole provided above and below the front plate 13 for spatial circulation, 18 is a shelf of the rack 8, and 19 is a flower pot.

In addition, FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the present invention, in which the racks 8' are arranged in two rows, upper and lower, and the lower racks 8'
A' only at the position of its take-out part 10', an article placement space 14' is secured between the front end of the rack 8a' and the window hole 2'; The storage capacity of the rack 8' can be increased.

In this embodiment, a kitchen has been described, but in a bookstore, if the rack 8 is used as a bookshelf, it can be handled in the same way.

In this way, the bay window device of the present invention allows the rack to be moved freely with respect to the bay window frame, and since the housing portion of the rack is covered by the wall on the indoor side, the presence of the rack on the indoor side does not cause any discomfort. The rack can be made into a neat and clean shape, and by moving the rack, the space of the bay window frame can be effectively used to easily take out and store the items stored in the rack. In addition, the rack has a space for placing items between the front end of the rack and the window hole at the location of the take-out part, so objects such as flowerpots can be left in the space for placing items. In addition to improving the appearance, the lateral length of the rack is larger than the lateral length of the rack take-out part minus the length of the article placement space, and the rear front surface of the rack is Since the opposing walls on the indoor side can be opened and closed, it is easy to use and has the effect of increasing the amount of storage inside the rack.
