TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a partition structure for partitioning the inside of a drawer of a kitchen cabinet, a storage, or the like into a plurality of parts, and more particularly to a partition member that can be bent according to the shape of a storage item and a drawer structure equipped with these members. Things.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Drawers in kitchen cabinets and storage cabinets have a wide frontage and are apt to be tall and have large drawers, due to the increase in size of storage items and the pursuit of easy removal.
A large drawer stores large cooking utensils, food and drink for stock, and large tableware. However, since the width of the frontage is large, a plurality of storage items are arranged.
[0003]
Various structures have been proposed and commercialized to partition the inside so that the stored items do not collide with each other by opening and closing of the drawer and fall or break.
In Utility Model Registration No. 2507506, there is a structure in which a partition plate is locked to both side plates of a drawer, and a space inside the drawer is divided into a square shape in combination with a partition plate for small division.
[0004]
Japanese Patent No. 2832811 proposes a structure in which a linear body formed of a coil having an elastic restoring force is locked to a guard bar on a side plate of a drawer.
In addition to this, there is a device disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-30992.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the structure of Utility Model Registration No. 2507506, one part can be separated only in one direction of the frontage direction or the depth direction, and two or more parts are always required to partition in both directions (square shape). In addition, since the usual round-shaped storage items such as containers and dishes are supported by dots or lines by the partition plate, the storage state of the storage items becomes unstable when opening and closing the drawer, and small storage items are separated by the partition plate. I couldn't support it.
[0006]
The structure of Japanese Patent No. 2832811 is a structure in which a frontage and a depth are separated by two parts in the same manner as described above. Although the storage state of the round-shaped storage item is stable, when removing the storage item, the linear body must be removed or the fixed position must be shifted, and it takes time to store the storage item.
[0007]
Many of these conventional examples have many parts for partitioning, support stored items with dots and lines, cannot stably support small stored items or stored items having deformed curved surfaces, and have trouble in forming partitions. There is a problem that such a space is wasted due to the partitioning in two directions (square shape).
An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems of the conventional example, to provide a partition member that can be bent in accordance with the shape of a storage item, and to provide a drawer structure to which the partition member is attached. .
[0008]

The partition plate is formed of a plate-like material, and a connecting member is provided at an upper end portion of the partition plate to be hooked to a side plate or a back plate of the drawer.
[0009]
The partition member according to the second aspect of the present invention is characterized in that the partition plate is made of plastic so that the thick portion and the thin portion are alternately continuous, and can be bent freely. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to dispose and bend or curve.
[0010]
The partition member according to the third aspect of the present invention is a partition member having a gate-shaped cross section and an upper surface and one side surface rotatably connected thereto so as to adjust and maintain an angle at which the former partition member is bent over the upper end. And a cap provided with locking means for connecting the rotating plate and the restraining plate to the rotating plate at a plurality of angles.
A partition member according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is a partition plate formed by connecting a plastic prism member having a height substantially coincident with a side plate and a back plate of a drawer in a freely bendable manner. It is characterized in that it is hung on the inner wall of the plate.
[0011]
In the partition member according to the fifth aspect of the present invention, in order to connect the prism members in a freely bendable manner, cylindrical projections and gutter-like projections covering substantially half of the cylindrical projections are alternately and integrally formed on the longitudinal ridge line. The cylindrical projection and the gutter-like projection are fitted and connected.
