2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there have been provided various kinds of furniture such as wagons with drawers, cabinets, armpits, etc., which are movable by providing a plurality of casters on the lower surface. Although this type of mobile furniture is convenient when changing the installation location, it may move unexpectedly during use. Therefore, there is also provided one provided with some kind of movement restriction means.

For example, there is a structure in which the casters themselves are provided with stoppers for forcibly restricting the rotation of the wheels, but it takes time and effort to operate the stoppers of a plurality of casters. Further, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-10578, an operating rod is provided on a floor surface of furniture so as to be slidable back and forth or swingable to the left and right, and a regulating rod linked to the operating rod is fixed to a wheel. It has a structure that meshes with a gear. Since the positional relationship between the wheels of the caster and the control rod is important, the stopper device of this structure cannot be applied to casters that rotate in any direction, but is applied only to casters with a fixed rotation direction. . Since this caster whose rotation direction is fixed is generally provided at the rear part of the furniture, the caster inevitably has a structure in which the operating rod provided at the front part of the furniture and the regulating rod at the rear part are linked, and the stopper device itself. Is large and the link structure is complicated, so that the processing of the synthetic resin molding member and the furniture body is complicated, and the number of assembling steps is large and the cost is high. Also, since the casters are locked, the contact area with the floor surface is small, so the movement restriction effect is poor. Moreover, in this type of furniture, the front caster to which the lateral force is most likely to act is free, and thus the movement restriction effect is low.

On the other hand, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-2000, which is a prior application of the applicant
-102432 discloses a stopper device provided with a stopper that holds the furniture immovably by being stretched on the bottom surface of the movable furniture, and an operation tool that abuts this stopper on and off the floor surface. There is. Here, the stopper is a rod having a cap attached to the lower end and movable up and down, and the rod is constantly elastically urged upward by spring means, and the rod is urged against elasticity by the operating tool. It is a structure that sticks to the surface. The downward movement of the rod is performed by sliding an inclined surface formed on the interlocking member that slides laterally and a pin protruding from the side surface of the rod. However, the stopper device having this structure also has a complicated link mechanism as an operating tool, and thus the cost tends to increase, similarly to the above-mentioned problem.

Next, a structure for mounting the support member 4 in the concave groove 12 of the movable furniture 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2, 4 and 5. First, the structure of the groove 12 formed along the front edge of the lower surface of the movable furniture 1 will be described. The concave groove 12 forms a rear wall surface portion 14 by raising the front-rear intermediate portion of the front reinforcing plate 33 of the movable furniture 1, and extends forward from the upper end of the rear wall surface portion 14 to form the upper surface portion 15. The front wall surface portion 13 is formed by further extending downward from the front end of the upper surface portion 15. In addition, the front wall surface portion 1
3 includes a vertical front plate 13A and a horizontal bent plate 13B in which the lower end of the front plate 13A is bent rearward. Then, the engaging recess 34 is formed at the rear edge of the bent plate 13B of the front wall surface portion 13 that engages with the front engaging claw 18 of the support member 4.
Notch is formed, and an engaging hole 35 is formed in the rear wall surface portion 14 with which the rear engaging claw 19 of the supporting member 4 is engaged.

Therefore, the support member 4 is inserted from the front portion thereof into the front portion of the concave groove 12 so that the front end of the support member 4 is fitted into the engagement concave portion 34 of the front wall surface portion 13, and
With the front engagement claw 18 engaged with the lower surface of the edge of the engagement recess 34 and the protrusion 20 abutting on the upper surface 15 of the recessed groove 12, the rear portion of the support member 4 is recessed. The rear engaging claw 19 can be fitted into the engaging hole 35 of the rear wall surface portion 14 in a retaining state and attached, by being pushed into the inside 12.
Since the position where the protrusion 20 is formed is directly above the front and rear center of the recess 16 of the support member 4, an upward reaction force applied from the floor surface F to the ground member 6 is generated via the protrusion 20. The force that is transmitted to the front reinforcing plate 33 and tilts up and down is not applied to the support member 4. As a result, even if the support member 4 is mounted in the recessed groove 12 only by the fitting structure, there is no rattling and sufficient support strength can be obtained.

As described above, the stopper device for movable furniture according to claim 1 of the present invention is provided with a pair of left and right supports on the lower front edge of the movable furniture which is movable by providing a plurality of casters at its lower end. The operation member is fitted to the support member so as to be movable in the left-right direction with respect to both support members, and the ground member is disposed between the support members so as to be externally fitted to the operation member and vertically displaceable. At the same time, a plurality of pairs of pins protruding from the front and rear surfaces of the intermediate portion of the operation member with a space left and right are slidably fitted into a plurality of pairs of inclined guide holes formed in the front and rear vertical plates of the ground member. , The grounding member is linked so as to move up and down as the operating member moves left and right, and grounding portions are provided at both left and right ends of the grounding member, and the furniture moves by pressing the grounding portion against the floor surface. As it is regulated, mobile furniture When you use it by leaving it stationary, you can press the ground contact part to the floor surface at the front of the furniture by simply sliding the operating member to the left and right, so you can reliably regulate the movement, as in the past. Since it can be entirely made of synthetic resin without using a complicated link mechanism, and can be easily assembled to furniture, a significant cost reduction can be achieved.
