BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a bathroom showing an embodiment of the present invention. Bathroom 1 has bathtub 2, washroom 3, wall 4,
A door 5 and a ceiling (not shown) form a space, a counter 6 is mounted on the front wall, and a mirror 7 is mounted above the counter.

The storage cabinet 11 is installed above the mirror and can store small items in the bathroom such as shampoo, towels, cleaning tools and the like. A tower panel 12 is installed from the bathtub side end of the storage cabinet 11 to the upper surface of the counter 6. Since the storage cabinet 11 is mounted above the mirror in this manner, it can be used without being squeezed even if it projects from the wall.

A shower faucet 8 is attached to the front surface of the counter 6 on the side of the washing room 3, and a shower head 9 connected to the shower faucet 6 is locked to a front surface of a tower panel 12 so as to be detachable. .

A cross-sectional view of the storage cabinet 11 is shown in FIG. The storage cabinet 11 includes a back plate 13, a shelf plate 14,
The side plate 15 constitutes a storage shelf portion, is wide in the lateral direction, and has a width approximately the same as the width of the washing space 3 in the present embodiment. A door 16 is provided on the front surface thereof, and the door 16 can be opened and closed by rotating around a shaft rod 24 attached to the side plates 15 at both ends of the storage cabinet 11 as an axis. The user opens and closes the door 16 to take in and out the stored items in the storage cabinet 11. Since the door 11 is provided, it is possible to prevent the sprinkling of shower water, splashing hot water, and bubbles from entering the storage cabinet 11 when washing hair, washing the body, and preventing dirt.

The upper part 17 of the storage cabinet 11 is a door 16
There is nothing to block the space between the back plate 13 and the back plate 13 and it is open to the bathroom. Therefore, since a tall item such as a cleaning brush can be placed so as to project upward, even if such an item is to be stored, the item can be placed beside it and the storage capacity is not limited, and many small items can be stored. Can be placed. Further, even if the inside of the storage cabinet 11 gets wet, the inside of the storage cabinet 11 does not retain moisture and the generation of mold can be suppressed.

A rubber bush 1 is attached to the front end portion 23 of the shelf plate 14.
9 and the like are attached to secure a gap 18 between the door 16 and the front end portion 23. As a result, air flows in and out not only from above but also from below, so that a flow of air is generated in the storage cabinet 11, which makes it easier to dry the inside. The method for ensuring the gap 18 is not limited to the rubber bush.

A lighting device 21 is installed below the shelf plate 14. The mirror 7 and the area around the counter 6 are illuminated through the translucent cover 22, but at the same time, the heat generated when the light is turned on is transmitted to the shelf plate 14 and the shelf plate 14 becomes warm, and in addition, the above-mentioned air flow is promoted. As a result, the inside of the storage cabinet 11 becomes easier to dry, and the occurrence of mold can be suppressed.

Further, the upper surface portion 20 of the shelf plate 14 is provided with a downward slope toward the washing place. By doing so, water flows down and no water remains on the shelf board 11, so that the shelf board 11 is less likely to become dirty.

In the present embodiment, the back shelf 13 is provided in the storage shelf portion, but there is no problem in the storage function without the back board 13, and the presence or absence thereof is not related to the present invention. . Further, the slope of the upper surface portion 20 of the shelf board 14 is not limited to the descending slope on the side of the washing place 3 and may be a descending slope on the side of the wall 4 to form a drainage gap or hole between the backboard 13 or the wall 4 and the shelf board 14. The specifications may be empty.

The tower panel 12 is an object to which the shower head 9 is attached, and can be used as a storage space for storage shelves, lighting equipment, etc. in the space between the back wall 4 and this.

[0018]

The present invention has the following effects due to the above configuration. According to the first aspect of the present invention, the bathroom storage cabinet is installed on the wall of the upper part of the mirror attached to the front of the washing room, and is provided with the door on the front part. Therefore, the bathroom wall can be used as wide as possible for the space of the building frame.
Also, since the door is attached to the front at a high position, bubbles during hair washing and body washing do not enter the inside of the cabinet, so it is possible to keep the stored items and the inside clean at all times.

According to the second aspect, since the bathroom storage cabinet can be installed on the mirror and is wide in the lateral direction, more storage items can be stored.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the upper surface of the bathroom storage cabinet is open to the bathroom, it is possible to store a long storage item such as a cleaning brush so as to be exposed upward. Even if things are stored, many things can be stored without limiting other storage, and since the moisture that has entered the storage cabinet does not stay inside, it is possible to prevent the generation of mold.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the bathroom storage cabinet is provided with the lighting equipment at the lower part of the shelf board, the shelf board is warmed by the heat when the lighting equipment is turned on, so that the inside is easily dried and the generation of mold is prevented. You can

According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, since the bathroom storage cabinet has a gap between the front end of the shelf and the door for air to flow, moisture can escape from the gap and the upper part can be opened. By combining with the lighting under the shelf board, the air flow from the bottom to the top can be generated, and the inside can be dried more quickly.

According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, since the bathroom storage cabinet has a slope on the upper surface of the shelf plate, water drops that have entered the storage cabinet also flow down, so that the inside is dried quickly.
