DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below. As shown in FIG. 1, the entrance storage furniture 1 is fixed to the entrance wall 2 such that the lower surface 1 a of the entrance storage furniture 1 is at a certain height than the entrance floor 3. Using the space S between the lower surface 1a side of the entrance storage furniture 1 and the floor 3, the slide rail 5 is provided on the lower surface 1a of the entrance storage furniture 1.
A seat plate 4 on which a person can sit is mounted. The seat plate 4 is made up of the entrance storage furniture 1 by the slide rail 5.
Can be drawn out to the front A from the front surface 1b.

The slide rails 5 are provided with the seat plate 4 on both sides of the lower surface 1 a of the entrance storage furniture 1. The slide rails 5 on both sides allow the seat plate 4 to be stored on the lower surface 1 a side of the entrance storage furniture 1. And a withdrawal position to the front A is supported so as to be able to run freely. Each slide rail 5 has the same structure. As shown in FIG. 3, for example, the slide rail 5 includes a fixed rail 8 and an intermediate movable rail 9a which is slidably fitted to the fixed rail 8 via a roller portion 18.
And a movable end rail 9b slidably fitted to the intermediate movable rail 9a via a roller portion 19. The fixed rail 8 is fixed to a mounting angle 17 which is mounted on the lower surface 1a side of the entrance storage furniture 1 shown in FIG. 2, and the tip movable rail 9b is fixed to the outer surface of the side piece 20 of the mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4. I have.

The mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4 is, as shown in FIG.
A pair of left and right side pieces 20 which are formed in a U-shape in plan view and open to the front A, and to which the distal end movable rail 9b is fixed;
And a connecting piece 21 for connecting between the rear ends of the pair of side pieces 20. On the inner surface side of each side piece 20, a rotating shaft 22 for rotatably connecting a parallel link 13, which will be described later, is protruded inward at two places before and after the inner piece side. Behind the rear rotating shaft 22, a parallel link positioning stopper 16 for stopping the rotation of the parallel link 13 described later is provided.

A rail return preventing stopper 7 shown in FIG. 6 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4. The rail return prevention stopper 7 is formed in a substantially U-shape in a plan view that is open rearward, and an operation portion 12 is provided at a front end portion. A pair of right and left extending portions 23 bent in the shape of a letter are respectively protruded, and a pair of right and left shaft portions 24 are respectively protruded outward from the rear end of each extending portion 23. A pair of right and left contact portions 11 that are bent in a substantially L-shape in a side view from the front end to the rear are protrudingly provided.

The respective shaft portions 24 are rotatably supported by bearing portions 25 respectively mounted on the rear portions of the left and right side pieces 20 of the mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4 shown in FIG. As a result, the operating section 12 and the contact section 11 are rotatable up and down around the shaft section 24. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the shaft portion 24 is provided with a distal end movable rail 9 b and an intermediate movable rail 9.
a, and is located on the lower surface side of the fixed rail 8. Further, the extension part 2 provided between the operation part 12 and the shaft part 24 is provided.
Due to 3, the own weight of the operation unit 12 side is heavier than the own weight of the contact unit 11. As a result, the contact portion 11 is always lifted upward by its own weight on the operation portion 12 side, and in the stored state of the seat plate 4, the contact portion 11 slidably abuts on the lower surface of the fixed rail 8, In addition, when the seat plate 4 is completely pulled out to the front A, the contact portion 11 comes off the lower surface of the fixed rail 8 and is lifted along the tip surface 8a of the fixed rail 8 to stand still, thereby extending the slide rail 8. In this state, the seat plate 4 is locked to prevent the seat plate 4 from returning to the rear B. Further, by pushing down the operating portion 12 by hand, the contact portion 11 can be lowered and pushed down below the distal end surface 8a of the fixed rail 8, and by pushing the seat plate 14 backward B in this state, the contact portion 11 It can move to the rear end side of the fixed rail 8 while hitting the lower surface of the fixed rail 8 again.

Further, the mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4 is used to hold the seat plate 4 pulled out forward at a position H (FIG. 1B) higher than the height of the seat plate 4 in the storage position. A holding mechanism 10 is provided. As shown in FIG. 7, the seat plate holding mechanism 10 includes a parallel link 13 attached to each of the left and right side pieces 20 of the attachment frame 6, and a parallel link positioning stopper 16 for positioning the parallel link 13. . A pair of link pieces 14 constituting the parallel link 13,
15 are rotatably connected to the front and rear two places of the frame 4a of the seat plate 4, respectively.
Are rotatably connected to rotating shafts 22 provided at two positions before and after, respectively.

The other end 15b of the link piece 15 located on the rear side is provided with a protruding portion 30 protruding further below the rotating shaft 22 of the mounting frame 6. On the other hand, on the mounting frame 6 side, a parallel link positioning stopper 16 (FIG. 5) is protruded inward at a position corresponding to the protruding portion 30. As shown in FIG. 8, the parallel link positioning stopper 16 hits the protrusion 30 of the rear link piece 15 when the parallel link 13 is rotated to lift the seat plate 4 from the mounting frame 6 diagonally forward A _1. It serves to prevent the parallel link 13 from falling further forward.

A gas spring 31 is provided between the parallel links 13. One end 31a of the gas spring 31 is rotatably connected to the tip of the protruding portion 30 of the rear link piece 15, and the other end 31b is rotatable about the rotary shaft 22 of the front parallel link 14. The gas spring 31 constantly urges the rear link piece 15 in a direction of lifting upward with respect to the rear link piece 15, whereby the seat plate 4 can be lifted with a small force. ing.

When the seat plate 4 is pulled forward by hand,
As shown in FIG. 3, the intermediate movable rail 9a and the distal movable rail 9b of the slide rail 5 extend, respectively,
Can be pulled out to the front A from the front surface 1b of the entrance storage furniture 1 (the state of FIG. 1B). At this time, the return of the seat plate 4 is prevented by the rail return preventing stopper 7 attached to the mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4. That is, when the seat plate 4 is pulled out, the contact portion 11 of the rail return prevention stopper 7 moves forward while hitting the lower surface of the fixed rail 8, and when the seat plate 4 is completely pulled out, as shown in FIG. The contact portion 11 is lifted up by its own weight on the side 12, and the contact portion 11 is separated from the lower surface of the fixed rail 8 and is stopped in a state of facing the distal end surface 8 a of the fixed rail 8. As a result, the distal end movable rail 9b and the intermediate movable rail 9 cannot slide with respect to the fixed rail 8, and the slide rail 8 is locked in the extended state, and the seat plate 4
Is prevented from returning to the rear B. Accordingly, the seat plate 4 can be automatically locked by the rail return preventing stopper 7 only by pulling the seat plate 4 forward, so that the positioning operation of the seat plate 4 becomes unnecessary.

[0016] After that, when lifted up the seat plate 4, becomes higher than the height of the seat plate 4 parallel link 13 is rotated obliquely forward A ₁ is stowed position. At this time, since the upward spring force is applied to the parallel link 13 by the gas spring 31, the seat plate 4 can be lifted with a small force. Then, the state where the parallel link 13 has moved further forward A than the vertical posture (the state of FIGS. 1B and 8).
Becomes, the projection 30 of the rear link piece 15 abuts on the parallel link positioning stopper 16 which is protruded from the mounting frame 6 of the seat plate 4, fixed in a state parallel link 13 is lifted obliquely forward A ₁ Is done.

By lifting the seat plate 4 diagonally forward A ₁ in this manner, it becomes easy to sit on the seat plate 4. Therefore, when wearing or taking off shoes as in the past, it is not necessary to sit down on a low place such as a staircase at the entrance, so that it is possible to reduce the burden on the waist, especially for the elderly and the body. People with low back pain, rheumatism, etc. can easily attach and detach the lower leg. Moreover, by using lifting the seat plate 4 obliquely forward A _1, for example, if the mounting position of the entrance storage furniture 1 is low, or even entrance storage furniture depth is small, the seat plate 4 to sit easily position Can be easily pulled out.

Also, when the seat plate 4 is used, the seat plate 4 is inadvertently moved backward B by the rail return prevention stopper 7.
, The safety of use of the seat plate 4 can be ensured, and the parallel link 13 supporting the seat plate 4 can be secured.
Since the parallel link positioning stopper 16 prevents the fall to the front A, the seat plate 4 does not tilt further forward A, and the load applied to the parallel link positioning stopper 16 is reduced by the gas spring 31. However, since the seat plate 4 can be received and fixed, the seat plate 4 can be reliably positioned and fixed at a predetermined height position, and even a person with a heavy weight can use it with confidence.

On the other hand, when the seat plate 4 is stored, when the seat plate 4 is pushed down from above, the parallel link 13 rotates obliquely rearward, and the seat plate 4 can be returned to substantially the same height as the mounting frame 6, Thereafter, the operating section 12 of the rail return prevention stopper 7
Is pushed up by hand, the contact portion 11 descends and separates from the front end surface 8a of the fixed rail 8, whereby the movable rail 9
Is slidable with respect to the fixed rail 8, and the seat plate 4 can be returned to the rear B to be stored on the lower surface 1a side of the entrance storage furniture 1. At this time, the contact portion 11 moves toward the rear end of the fixed rail 8 while hitting the lower surface of the fixed rail 8, so that the seat plate 4 can be stored smoothly.

Here, when the seat plate 4 is pushed down, the spring force of the gas spring 31 acts in the direction opposite to the return direction of the parallel link 13, so that the seat plate 4 can be prevented from suddenly lowering. There is no fear of generating a loud collision sound between the movable rail 4 and the movable rail 9 or pinching a finger between the seat plate 4 and the movable rail 9, thereby further improving safety. In addition, since the seat plate 4 is slidably supported by the slide rail 5 between the storage position and the withdrawal position,
Each operation of using and storing the seat plate 4 can be performed with one touch, and the usability is further improved.

When the seat plate 4 is not used, the seat plate 4 is stored on the lower surface 1a side of the entrance storage furniture 1, so that the dead space S between the lower surface 1a of the entrance storage furniture 1 and the floor 3 is provided.
, The seat plate 4 can be stored, so that there is no need to secure an extra space for storing the seat plate 4, and at the same time, the seat plate 4 can be integrated with the entrance storage furniture 1 without a sense of incongruity in appearance. Since the seat plate 4 can be stored, the seating ability of the seat plate 4 is improved. In addition, although the force which lifts the parallel link 13 upward by the spring force of the gas spring 31 is always applied,
The spring force of the gas spring 31 is relatively small, and is an auxiliary member that can lift the seat plate 4 with a small force when the seat plate 4 is used. When the seat plate 4 is lifted or the seat plate 4 is pulled out to the front A, the seat plate 4 is not lifted without permission.

In the present embodiment, the stopper 7 for preventing the rail from returning returns to the front end surface 8 of the fixed rail 8 by utilizing the difference in its own weight between the operating portion 12 and the contact portion 11.
a, the rail return function by the rail return prevention stopper 7 is exerted only by pulling the seat plate 4 forward, and the seat plate 4 is moved backward B
In order to return to the normal state, the lock of the slide rail 5 by the rail return prevention stopper 7 can be released with a single touch simply by pushing down the operation unit 12 by hand, so that it is easy to use and at the same time, the structure of the rail return prevention stopper 7 is simplified, and safety is improved. In addition to ensuring the performance, there is an advantage that the cost can be reduced.
