Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a tabletop storage device useful for free-address and semi-free-address tables, and particularly to a tabletop storage device integrated with a telephone stand.

[Conventional technology]

Traditionally, each person used an office desk for exclusive use, and the stationery and documents needed by each person were stored in drawers. However, for example, in an active sales department, the time spent sitting at a desk working is short and a dedicated desk is not necessarily necessary. In particular, with the development of portable telephones that are not installed in fixed locations, the telephones that occupy a position in sales departments can be moved freely.
The need for a desk is becoming less and less. Therefore, a dedicated desk is no longer necessary, and a single desk is increasingly used by multiple people to work.

In this way, a system in which multiple people use a common desk to conduct office work is the free address method, a system in which each person uses a dedicated desk to perform office work is the fixed address method, and an intermediate method between the free address method and the fixed address method. This method is called the semi-free address method.

Furthermore, in conventional desks, if stationery, documents, etc. stored in the drawers are placed on the top of the desk, the usable area on the top becomes narrower, causing problems in office work.

Furthermore, although communication could be maintained by using common desks to conduct office work, there was also the problem that the privacy of each person working independently was ignored.

On the other hand, conventional telephones installed on desks are usually placed on the desk, and for common use, they are sometimes installed on a telephone stand supported by an arm.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

As mentioned above, in an office with a free address or semi-free address system, as the office space is shared, stationery, documents, etc. used on the desk become individualized as before. This requires additional drawers, which conflicts with the rationalization of office space.

In this way, when trying to use office space efficiently, stationery and documents that were conventionally stored on the desk or in drawers can be streamlined while considering work efficiency, and creative work such as product development can be done more efficiently. Organize stationery and documents while taking into account the psychological impact that stationery has on the office worker, and organize stationery and documents related to telephones, frequently used stationery, and stationery that is used less frequently while setting documents. Setting up documents for shared use has become a problem.

Also, when sharing a desk, it is also necessary to share a telephone, but how do you store the address book, telephone directory, memos, writing utensils, etc. that are shared when using the telephone? The issue is whether to install it nearby. Moreover, the problem arises as to how to standardize the storage method with general office equipment.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above objects and solve the problems, the present invention fixes a pedestal to an arm that is movable and rotatable along the longitudinal side of a tabletop surface, and a center that is erected on the pedestal. One edge of the tray is rotatably provided on one side of the board, and a telephone is attached to the other side of the center board. Furthermore, a spacer is provided between the center board and the telephone, and the telephone is stored in the spacer. It has a structure with space.
