Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a storage, and more particularly, to a storage in which the height of a drawer can be easily changed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, when a drawer is provided in a storage, a guide member for moving the drawer in the front-rear direction is fixed to an inner surface of a side plate, or a claw-shaped hook is provided on an outer surface of the guide member. This hook is engaged with a slit formed on the inner surface of the side plate.

[0003]

However, the structure in which the guide member is fixed to the side plate has a disadvantage that the height position of the drawer cannot be freely changed. Further, in the engagement method using the hook-shaped hook fitting, it is possible to change the mounting height position of the drawer, but the total load of the drawer and the object stored in the drawer is reduced by the hook fitting. This causes deformation of the hook fittings, which leads to a disadvantage that the parallel accuracy of the pair of left and right guide members cannot be maintained.

In addition, since the guide members are mounted on the left and right side walls, respectively, the mounting surfaces are different from each other. If there is an assembly error in the parallelism of the side walls themselves, this becomes a slight inclination. This extends to the guide member, which causes a drawer in / out operation not to be performed smoothly.

[0005] Conventionally, in offices and the like, as a method of document management, it has been generally practiced to collect related documents, save them in a file with a title, and arrange them neatly in a storage. The file is usually of A4 size, and the storage is often designed based on the vertical dimension of the file, that is, the vertical dimension of A4 size. However, in recent offices, a document management method in which related documents are collectively stored in a box-shaped file called a box file has become common.

However, this box file is A4
The size of the document is stored in a landscape orientation where the vertical direction is the front and rear direction.
If the shelves are successively packed from the bottom in accordance with the vertical dimensions of the box file, a disadvantage arises in that a dead space is necessarily generated above.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been devised in view of such inconvenience, and it is an object of the present invention to change the height of the drawer very easily and to assemble the side plates forming the storage box. It is an object of the present invention to provide a storage box which does not hinder drawer insertion / removal operations even if there is an error.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a drawer support structure capable of effectively utilizing a dead space of a storage box that accompanies a change in a document management method.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to a storage having a storage space formed inside with a front side as an access port, and a space between the inner surfaces of side walls relatively disposed on the left and right sides. In addition to providing a drawer support that can be bridged, a pair of guide members is fixed to the left and right sides of the drawer support, and a drawer is provided in these guide members so that the drawer can be taken in and out. By adopting such a configuration, the upper surface of the drawer support provides a single reference surface for fixing the two guide members, and even if there is an error in the parallelism of the side plate, etc. It is possible to prevent the drawer from hindering smooth insertion and removal of the drawer. Moreover,
Since the drawer support is supported on the side plate, there is no need to provide a hook-shaped hook fitting for engaging the guide member with the side plate. can do.

[0010]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The drawer support of the present invention is provided so as to be supported on an inner surface of a side wall by using an arbitrary position of a large number of slits formed at predetermined intervals in a vertical direction. Is preferred. Thus, the mounting height position of the drawer can be changed only by changing the height of the drawer support.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of a storage according to this embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a front view thereof. In these figures, a storage case 10 has a box-shaped case main body 11 in which a fixed storage space is formed so that the front side is an access port, a drawer unit 12 disposed in the case main body 11, and an intermediate unit. It comprises a shelf 13 and an opening / closing door, not shown.

The case body 11 comprises a pair of side walls 16 erected from the left and right sides of a bottom wall 15, and a top wall 18 and a rear wall 19 disposed between the upper end and the rear end of the side walls 16. Have been. A number of slits 20 are formed on the inner surfaces of the side plates 16 and 16 facing each other at two positions in front and rear thereof at predetermined intervals in the vertical direction.
(See FIG. 2) is detachable.

As shown in FIG. 3, the drawer unit 12 includes a shelf 25 serving as a drawer support provided substantially in the same shape as the intermediate shelf 13,
5, a pair of guide members 26 fixed to the left and right upper surface sides;
A drawer 27 is provided movably in the front-rear direction along these guide members 26. Here, the guide member 26 is configured by a prismatic guide block 26A extending in the front-rear direction, and a guide rail 26B fixed to the relative surface side of the guide blocks 26A.

The drawer unit 12 includes a pair of side plates 31, 31 disposed on the left and right sides of the bottom plate 30, and the bottom plate 3.

In addition, the drawer 27 can be arranged by effectively utilizing the upper dead space caused by a change in the document storage method. In addition, the drawer unit 12 can be placed on the bottom wall 15 of the case body 11, so that the lower dead space in the case where the storage of documents is sequentially filled downward from above can be effectively used.

In the above embodiment, the case where the guide member 26 is fixed using the shelf plate 25 is shown and described, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a frame that can be bridged between the pair of left and right side walls 16 may be provided, and the guide members 26 may be fixed to the frame. In short, the present invention is not limited to the conventional method in which the inner surface of the side wall 16 is used as the fixing surface of the guide member 26, but may be any drawer support that can fix the guide member 26 by a single reference surface.

[0019]

As described above, according to the present invention,
A pair of guide members are fixed to the left and right sides of the drawer support such as a shelf plate, and the drawer is supported so that the drawer can be taken in and out of the guide members. Since the members are attached, even if an error occurs in the parallelism or the like of the side plates, it is possible to prevent a risk of obstructing the smooth insertion and removal of the drawer. Moreover, since the shelf board is supported by the side plate,
There is no need to provide a hook-shaped hook fitting for engaging the guide member with the side plate, and the inconvenience of employing the hook fitting engagement method can be eliminated.

Further, since the drawer support is provided so as to be able to be supported by using a slit at an arbitrary position among slits formed on the inner surface side of the side wall, the height of the drawer support is changed. Only by doing this, the height of the drawer can be easily and quickly changed.
