Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a closet storage device for futons and the like, and in particular, the storage shelf is designed so that it is convenient to handle items such as futons that are stored and taken out every day. This invention relates to an improvement in a tilting storage device.

<Prior art> An example of a closet storage device in which the storage shelves tilt forward is one in which guide rails are provided on both sides of the closet and descend vertically at the front, as seen in Utility Model Application No. 155320/1983. Some shelves have a structure in which guide pins provided at the front and back of both sides of the shelf slide on the width of the guide rail. When the shelf is pulled forward, the front guide pin moves down the vertical portion of the guide rail, thereby tilting the shelf.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> In such a conventional structure, when a large number of shelves are pulled out, the entire load is applied to the front and rear guide pins, and in particular, the load is concentrated on the front guide pins due to the action of leverage. The guide pins that protrude from the shelf board do not have the strength to withstand the load, and the drawer allowance for the shelf board has to be sacrificed. Also,
The work of pulling out and pushing in the shelf board with the futon on it becomes difficult due to the load of the futon. In particular, in the device described in the above-mentioned Utility Model Application No. 52-155320, the sloping shelf board must be lifted vertically and placed on the horizontal guide, which is a labor-intensive task, and improvements in this respect are also an issue. It was something that had become familiar to me.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The present invention has solved the above problems by providing a structure as shown below.

That is, in a closet shelf consisting of a shelf board 2 that can be pulled out to the front and linear shelf guide rails 3 provided on both sides of the shelf board 2, the shelf guide rails 3
is horizontally linear over the entire length, and a rear guide element such as a roller 7 that moves back and forth in the shelf guide rail 3 is provided only at the rear of the shelf board 2, and a left and right guide member such as a roller 7 that moves back and forth in the shelf guide rail 3 is provided at the front of the closet to receive the bottom surface of the shelf board 2. A pair of tapered roller fixing receivers 6 with a small inner diameter and a trapezoidal shelf board 2 with a narrow back end can be used as a pair, or an inclined guide 10 that is thicker in the front at the bottom of the roller fixing receiver 6 and the bottom of the shelf board 2 and thinner in the back.
As a result, as the shelf protrudes to the front of the closet opening, the shelf temporarily tilts forward.

<Function> With this structure, only the rear guide element moves back and forth in the guide rail 3, and since it has a rolling structure of rollers in the guide rail 3, it can easily move back and forth while supporting the load of the futon. can do. Furthermore, the shelf board 2 has no rollers or pins at the front, and is supported by fixed supports 6 such as rollers at the front of the closet and from the bottom, making it possible to create a structure with sufficient strength. The shelf board has a large drawer area and provides stable support when storing futons. Also, when pushing, by simply pushing from the front to the rear, the roller etc. fixing receiver 6 or the shelf guide rail 3 and the shelf 2 interact with each other, and the slanted shelf returns to the horizontal state by itself. Therefore, there is no need to lift the shelf board, and it can be stored with light force.

<Examples> Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the side of a closet showing the installation location of the closet storage device, and the figure shows an example of a three-tiered closet installed on the top of an existing middle shelf and in the middle between the middle shelf and the ceiling. The shelf board 2 in the closet 1 can be slid back and forth, and shelf board guides such as guide rails 3 are provided at both ends of the shelf board 2 to connect to the wall surface 4, middle shelf 14, or frame 5 of the closet.
installed on. When the shelf board is stored in the closet 1, it is in a nearly horizontal position up to the rear surface 9 of the closet, as shown by the solid line in the figure, but when it is pulled out forward, the shelf board is placed in front of the closet opening A. When the board protrudes, lean forward as shown by the two-dot chain line in the diagram.
This makes it easier to put in and take out futons, etc.

Therefore, a front regulator and a rear regulator are provided at either the ends of the shelf board or the guide rail, but many types of structures can be applied, and examples are shown in Figures 2 to 5. It is listed as.

The embodiment is as shown in FIGS. 2 to 5,
The front regulator is provided on the shelf support side, that is, the wall 4 or the frame 5, and is a fixed support 6 such as a roller that receives the bottom surface of the shelf 2. The rear regulator is a fixed support 6 such as a roller that supports the bottom of the shelf 2. It is characterized by the rear roller 7 provided on the moving shelf side. Further, the fixed receiver 6 may also be provided at the center of the shelf board.

In the plan view of FIG. 2 and the front view of FIG. 3, the shelf board 2 has a trapezoidal shape that tapers toward the back, and the fixed receiver 6 is a tapered roller, so the more the shelf board is pulled out, the more it leans forward. It is a structure. At the rear of the shelf plate, a rear roller 7 supported by a guide pin 8 slides within the guide rail 3.

Fig. 4 shows a case in which the bottom of the shelf board 2 in contact with the fixed part 6 is tilted forward by an inclined guide 10 which is thicker in the front and thinner in the back, and Fig. 5 shows only the positional relationship between the guide rail 3 and the fixed receiver 6. As the shelf board 2 protrudes from the closet opening A, the shelf board is temporarily tilted forward.

In principle, the guide rails 3 shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 are fixed substantially horizontally to the side surface of the closet or the frame, but may be fixed slightly tilted forward depending on the case. Further, if the guide rail itself is movably installed so as to actively tilt forward, the forward tilt angle of the shelf board becomes even larger.

<Effects of the Invention> As described in detail above, in the present invention, only the rear guide element rolls in the guide rail and moves back and forth, and the front part of the shelf board is supported from the lower part by a fixed part such as a roller. , it is possible to create a structure with sufficient strength, the shelf board has a large drawer space, and even short children can easily store items in the closet, and they can be easily pulled out. etc., on a shelf that is tilted diagonally, the shelf can be stably supported and simply pushed in without lifting, and the tilted shelf returns to horizontal and the futon can be stored. can. Furthermore, since the guide rail itself is straight, it is inexpensive and easy to construct.
