  Furthermore, since the door is attached without straddling adjacent slats, it does not hinder the opening / closing operation of the shutter, and the structure is simple.

  An example in which the shutter device 20 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention is applied to furniture 10 as an example of furniture and fixtures is shown in FIGS. In the illustrated form, the furniture 10 is a cabinet 10C having a plurality of shelves 12A to 12C, as can be seen from FIG. 8, but other furniture such as a book shelf or a clothing storage body may also be used. It can also be applied to office cabinets having multi-drawers and other appropriate furniture and fixtures.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the shutter device 20 of the present invention is a shutter to be slidably supported by a pair of guide rails 14 attached along both edge walls of an opening of a cabinet 10 </ b> C that is an attached body. 30 and shutter driving means 40 that moves the shutter 30 up and down along the guide rail 14 to open and close the shutter 30. The shutter 30 is held by a frame formed by a pair of guide rails 14, an upper frame 16 attached to the upper end thereof, and a lower frame 18 attached to the lower end thereof.

  The shutter 30 includes a plurality of slats 32 that are foldably connected to each other. In the illustrated example, the shutter 30 is composed of four slats 32A to 32D.

  Adjacent slats 32 are connected to each other by a hinge fitting 34 as shown in FIGS. More specifically, the upper edge of the uppermost slat 32A is pivotally supported on the upper frame 16 by a hinge fitting 34, and the lower edge of the uppermost slat 32A is connected to the upper edge of the next lower slat 32B. In the same manner, the lower edges of the upper slats 32B and 32C are pivotally supported by the hinge fittings 34 on the upper edges of the lower slats 32C and 32D.

The hinge bracket 34 functions so that the surface on which the hinge bracket 34 is attached is 180 degrees and the slat 32 is folded. In the illustrated example, the hinge bracket 34 is attached so as to face the outside of the shutter 30 between the lower edge of every other slat 32A, 32C and the upper edge of every other slat 32B, 32D. In addition, the hinge bracket 34 is attached so as to face the inner side of the shutter 30 between the upper edge of every other slat 32A, 32C and the lower edge of the upper frame 36 and the slat 32B.

When the shutter 30 is deployed and closed, the lower edges of the upper slats 32A, 32B, and 32C abut the upper edges of the lower slats 32B, 32C, and 32D and become the same plane. The hinge metal fitting 34 is attached to these edge surfaces in a depressed state so as not to prevent the contact of these edge surfaces.

  When the shutter 30 is folded, the lower edges of the slats 32A and 32C and the upper edges of the slats 32B and 32D protrude to the front side of the cabinet 10C.

  As shown in FIGS. 10, 14, and 15, the shutter 30 is a roller 36 that engages with the guide rail 14 on an appropriate slat, in the illustrated example, on the back surfaces (inner surfaces) of the lower edges of both sides of the slats 32B and 32D. A bracket 38 is attached by screws 62.

  Thus, when the slats 32A to 32D are folded or unfolded when the shutter 30 is opened and closed, the lower edges of the slats 32B and 32D are the upper edges of the slats 32C connected to the lower edge of the slats 32B. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 7, it always moves along the guide rail 14, but the lower edges of the slats 32A and 32C together with the upper edges of the slats 32B and 32D connected thereto are guided rails. It can move without being restrained by 14. Accordingly, the slats 32A to 32D can be folded (see FIGS. 8, 9, 11 and 12) or unfolded while being raised and lowered along the guide rail 14 (FIGS. 1 to 3). reference).

As shown in FIGS. 10, 14, and 15, the shutter driving means 40 includes a ring-shaped strip 42 that is coaxially attached to the outer end of the roller 36 and engages the guide rail 14, and the strip 42. It consists of a wire-like drive strip 44 connected to. The drive strip 44 extends upward in the guide rail 14 and is folded back at the upper end of the guide rail 14 via a pulley (not shown) and connected to a drive strip winder (not shown). In FIG. 15, reference numeral 60 denotes a screw that fixes the strip receiver 42 to the bracket 38 together with the roller 36.

  Therefore, when the drive strip winder is driven to unwind the drive strip 44, the drive strip 44 descends in the guide rail 14, and thus the shutter 30 descends while deploying the slats 32A to 32D, and the cabinet 10C. Close. Further, when the drive strip 44 is wound up by driving the drive strip winder, the drive strip 44 moves up in the guide rail 14, so that the shutter 30 is lifted while folding the slats 32A to 32D to open the cabinet 10C. .

  The shutter device 20 of the present invention includes at least one slat among a plurality of slats 32A to 32D, in the illustrated example, openings 50B and 50C (generally represented by reference numeral 50) provided in 32B and 32C. At least one door attached to the edge of the opening so that the openings 50B and 50C can be freely opened and closed, and in the illustrated example, each includes two doors 52B and 52C (generally represented by reference numeral 52). ing.

  In the form of FIGS. 1 to 10, the door 52 is shown as a double door type, but as shown in FIG. 16, it may be a sliding door type or a combination thereof. For example, when two or more doors 52 are provided in one slat 32, a double door type and a sliding door type may be used together as the door of the one slat 32, and one door is provided for each of the plurality of slats 32. When it has, the door of one slat may be a double door type, and the door of the other slat may be a sliding door type. In addition, it is preferable that the double doors are closed or hard so that they do not open unintentionally when the shutter 30 is moved when the shutter 30 is opened or closed.

  As can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 8, the slats 32A and 32B correspond to the uppermost shelf 12AB, and the other slats 32C and 32D correspond to the two lower shelves 12C and 12D. Therefore, it can be seen that the doors 52B and 52C correspond to the shelves 12AB and 12C, respectively.

  The cabinet 10C of the present invention can open and close its entire opening by opening and closing the shutter 30, but even if the shutter 30 remains closed, the arbitrary door 52 is opened to access the shelf 12AB or 12C. Can do. Accordingly, when an article is to be taken in or out of the shelf 12AB or 12C, the article can be easily taken in or out by opening the corresponding door 52.

  In the above embodiment, the door 52 is attached to the second and third slats 32B and 32C. However, as shown in FIG. 17, in particular, the door 52A is attached to the uppermost slat 32A. If attached, if this top door 52A is not provided, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the contents stored corresponding to the top slat cannot be accessed unless the shutter is fully opened. Therefore, it is preferable.
