Description

この発明は、座った人の足元から上半身の一部までを保温することが可能な椅子に関する。   BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a chair capable of keeping warm from a foot of a seated person to a part of an upper body.

日常生活における暖房設備として、椅子の座部や背もたれ部に暖房装置を備えるような暖房機能付きの椅子が特許文献１に記載されている。   Patent Literature 1 describes a heating-equipped chair having a heating device provided in a seat portion or a backrest portion of a chair as a heating device in daily life.

また、日本における代表的な暖房装置としてコタツがある。コタツは、机下の空間を布団等の布材で被い、その被われた空間内に暖房装置を配置して構成され、その空間を暖房装置によって暖めて使用する。近年では、掘りコタツ等の普及も進んでいる。   Kotatsu is a typical heating device in Japan. The kotatsu is configured by covering the space under the desk with a cloth material such as a futon, and arranging a heating device in the covered space, and heating the space by the heating device for use. In recent years, the spread of digging kotatsu and the like has been increasing.

特開平０９−２７６０７７号公報JP 09-276077 A

しかしながら、特許文献１のような暖房機能付きの椅子の場合、座った人には、座部や背もたれ部との接触部によって熱が伝わるが、その接触部分のみしか暖を得ることしかできず、それ以外の部分は外気にさらされる。従って、暖房機能としては十分でない。また、暖房装置から発生する熱は、座部や背もたれ部を介して外部に放散されるため、暖房効率も良いとは言い得ない。また、接触によって人に熱が伝達される構造であるため、低温火傷の危険を有しており、従ってこれを防ぐための安全装置等を追加するなど、一定の対策が必要となってくる。   However, in the case of a chair with a heating function as in Patent Literature 1, heat is transmitted to a seated person by a contact portion with a seat portion or a backrest portion, but only the contact portion can obtain heat. The rest is exposed to the open air. Therefore, it is not enough as a heating function. Further, the heat generated from the heating device is radiated to the outside through the seat and the backrest, so that the heating efficiency cannot be said to be good. Further, since the structure is such that heat is transmitted to a person by contact, there is a danger of a low-temperature burn. Therefore, a certain measure such as adding a safety device or the like for preventing the burn is required.

また、コタツは、上記椅子に比べると暖房機能も十分で暖房効率もよいが、床面に座して使用するため、使用する際には、座る・立ち上がるといった動作が要求される。従って、コタツは、足腰の弱い者にとって利用しやすいとは言い難く、座る・立ち上がるという動作に関して言えば、上記暖房機能付きの椅子の方に利点がある。   Kotatsu also has a sufficient heating function and good heating efficiency as compared with the above-mentioned chair, but since it is used while sitting on the floor surface, it is necessary to sit and stand when using it. Therefore, the kotatsu is not easy to use for a person with weak legs, and the chair with the heating function is more advantageous in terms of the operation of sitting and standing up.

本発明は、上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、少なくとも座した人の足部を効果的に暖房することができる被い機能付き椅子の提供である。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a chair with a covering function that can effectively heat at least the feet of a seated person.

課題を解決するための手段及び発明の効果Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

上記課題を解決するために、本発明の被い機能付き椅子は、座部に座る人の少なくとも足部を被う機能を備えた被い機能付き椅子であって、前記座部の下側には、椅子正面側に開口を有する内部空間が形成され、その内部空間には、前記開口を収納口として前記椅子正面側に引き出される引出しが組み込まれ、その引出しを閉めた状態で前記開口が塞がれるようになっており、その引出しには、前記座部に座る人の少なくとも足部を被う柔軟性のあるカバーが、その一部において連結されるとともに、そのカバーは折りたたみ、自由な屈曲又は丸めることにより全体が前記引出し内に収納され、その引出しが引き出され、その中に収容されているカバーが広げられて前記座部に座る人の少なくとも足部がそのカバーで被われることを特徴とする。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, a chair with a covering function of the present invention is a chair with a covering function having a function of covering at least a foot of a person sitting on a seat, and a chair under the seat. Has an internal space having an opening on the front side of the chair, and a drawer that is drawn out to the front side of the chair with the opening as a storage opening is incorporated in the internal space, and the opening is closed in a state where the drawer is closed. The drawer has a flexible cover, which covers at least the foot of the person sitting on the seat, is connected at a part of the drawer, and the cover is foldable and freely bent. Alternatively, the whole is stored in the drawer by rolling, the drawer is drawn out, the cover contained therein is expanded, and at least the foot of the person sitting on the seat is covered with the cover. Toss .

この被い機能付き椅子は、座した人に掛けられるカバーが被う空間内部に熱を閉じ込めるように構成されており、椅子に座した人はすわりながらにして暖を得ることができる。また、椅子構造をなすため、使用者は立ち上がったり座ったりする動作を楽に行うことができ、また長時間座ることによる腰痛や足の痺れもないため、足腰の弱い人も利用することができる。また、この被い機能付き椅子の場合、暖房装置等が無くとも、椅子に座した人自身を熱の発生源として、その熱をカバーで被われる空間に蓄積して留めることができるため、暖房効果が得られる。従って、無駄な電力消費等もなく、省エネにも役立つ。さらに、カバーを使用しないときには、一般的な椅子と同様にして使用することもできる。このとき、カバーは、邪魔にならないように引出し内に収納することが可能となっている。   This chair with a covering function is configured to confine heat in a space covered by a cover hung on a seated person, so that a person sitting on the chair can get warm while sitting. In addition, the chair structure allows the user to easily stand up and sit down, and has no back pain or numbness due to sitting for a long time. In addition, in the case of a chair with a covering function, even if there is no heating device or the like, the person sitting on the chair can generate heat and store it in the space covered with the cover, so that heating can be performed. The effect is obtained. Therefore, there is no wasteful power consumption and the like, which is useful for energy saving. Further, when the cover is not used, it can be used in the same manner as a general chair. At this time, the cover can be stored in the drawer so as not to be in the way.

本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、前記カバーは、前記引出しに対して着脱可能に組み付けられているものであっても良い。これにより、カバーを取り外すことができるため、カバーをまるごと洗うことが可能となり、被い機能付き椅子を清潔に保つことができる。   In the chair with a covering function of the present invention, the cover may be detachably attached to the drawer. Thereby, since the cover can be removed, the entire cover can be washed, and the covered function chair can be kept clean.

本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、前記引出しは、少なくとも前板と底板とを備えて構成され、引き出された状態においては、その引出しの底板が、前記座部に腰掛けた人の足を置く足置き板をなすものであっても良い。本発明の被い機能付き椅子は、引出しを椅子の正面側に引き出すことで、その引出しを椅子に座した人の足置きスペースとして利用することができる。また、このとき、引出しの前板と底板とは、カバーで被われる空間のうち、椅子に座した人の足元部分の空間の正面側と底面側とを被う。従って、足元の空間は、カバーだけでなく引出しの前板および底板によっても被われるため、その空間の熱を外部に逃し難い構造となる。更に言えば、引出しを構成する前板や底板等は一般的には板材であるため、カバーが布材である場合には、カバーよりも高い保温効果を有する場合がある。こうした場合、カバーに被われる空間のうち、引出しの板材が被う部分と重なる部分に関しては、布材が被わないよう布材を小さくすることもできる。   In the chair with a covering function according to the present invention, the drawer is configured to include at least a front plate and a bottom plate, and in a state where the drawer is pulled out, the bottom plate of the drawer places a foot of a person sitting on the seat. It may be a footrest plate. In the chair with a covering function of the present invention, by pulling out the drawer to the front side of the chair, the drawer can be used as a footrest space for a person sitting on the chair. Also, at this time, the front plate and the bottom plate of the drawer cover the front side and the bottom side of the space of the foot portion of the person sitting on the chair among the space covered by the cover. Therefore, the space under the foot is covered not only by the cover but also by the front plate and the bottom plate of the drawer, so that the structure has a structure in which the heat of the space is hardly released to the outside. Furthermore, since the front plate, the bottom plate and the like constituting the drawer are generally made of a plate material, when the cover is made of a cloth material, the cover may have a higher heat retaining effect than the cover. In such a case, in the space covered by the cover, a portion of the cloth material that overlaps with the portion covered by the drawer plate material can be made smaller so that the cloth material is not covered.

本発明の被い機能付き椅子は、前記内部空間と前記引出しとの少なくとも一方にはその引出しの出し入れに干渉しない位置に暖房装置が組み込まれており、前記引出しが引き出され、その中に収容されているカバーが広げられて前記座部に座る人の少なくとも足部がそのカバーで被われるとともに、前記暖房装置から発生する熱により足部を被う前記カバーの内部空間が暖房されるものであっても良い。これにより、カバーで被われる空間には熱が導かれ、その空間を暖めることができるとともに、カバーによってその空間から熱が逃れにくくなっているため、コタツのような暖房効率の高い暖房効果を得ることができる。   In the chair with a covering function of the present invention, at least one of the internal space and the drawer incorporates a heating device at a position that does not interfere with the taking in and out of the drawer, and the drawer is drawn out and housed therein. At least the foot of the person sitting on the seat is covered with the cover, and the internal space of the cover covering the foot is heated by the heat generated from the heating device. May be. As a result, heat is guided to the space covered by the cover, and the space can be warmed, and the cover makes it difficult for heat to escape from the space, so that a heating effect with a high heating efficiency such as kotatsu is obtained. be able to.

本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、前記暖房装置は、前記座部の下側の前記引出しを収容する内部空間に臨むように設けられているものであっても良い。熱を発生させる暖房機能が椅子下部の内部空間に設けられているため、発生した熱は、椅子の内部空間から出てカバー内部の空間に達すると、その上部まで効率的に行き渡る。   In the chair with a covering function of the present invention, the heating device may be provided so as to face an internal space that houses the drawer below the seat. Since the heating function for generating heat is provided in the interior space under the chair, when the generated heat exits from the interior space of the chair and reaches the space inside the cover, it efficiently spreads to the upper portion thereof.

また、この場合、本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、前記暖房装置は、前記座部の下側の前記引出しを収容する内部空間に臨むように設けられ、かつその内部空間にはその暖房装置で暖められた空気を前記開口の外に流動させるファンが設置されているものであっても良い。これにより、椅子下部の内部空間に設けられた暖房装置で発生した熱を、カバーに被われる保温空間に効率的に導くことが可能となる。   In this case, in the chair with the covering function of the present invention, the heating device is provided so as to face an internal space that houses the drawer below the seat portion, and the heating device is provided in the internal space. A fan may be provided to allow the air warmed in the step to flow out of the opening. This makes it possible to efficiently guide the heat generated by the heating device provided in the internal space below the chair to the heat retaining space covered by the cover.

本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、前記暖房装置は、前記引出しの底板の上に設けられ又はその底板内に埋設されており、その暖房装置の組み込まれた引出しの底板が足置き板とされてその上に前記座部に座る人の足が乗せられるようになっているものであっても良い。また、前記暖房装置は、前記引出しの前板にその裏面に臨むように組み込まれているものであっても良く、底板および前板の双方に備えられていても良い。暖房装置は、カバーによって被われる保温空間の下側に備えられるため、保温空間の上側まで暖気を効率的に導くことができる。また、暖房装置が底板に設けられている場合には、底板は足置き場となるため、足の裏を直接暖めることも可能となる。   In the chair with a covering function of the present invention, the heating device is provided on the bottom plate of the drawer or is embedded in the bottom plate, and the bottom plate of the drawer incorporating the heating device is a footrest plate. Alternatively, the foot of a person sitting on the seat may be placed thereon. Further, the heating device may be incorporated in the front plate of the drawer so as to face the back surface, or may be provided on both the bottom plate and the front plate. Since the heating device is provided below the heat retaining space covered by the cover, it is possible to efficiently guide warm air to the upper side of the heat retaining space. Further, when the heating device is provided on the bottom plate, the bottom plate serves as a footrest, so that the soles of the feet can be directly heated.

前記被い機能付椅子において、前記カバーはその内部に電気的な発熱手段を備えて、自身が前記暖房装置を兼ねた発熱機能を有する暖房機能付のカバーとされており、前記引出しが引き出され、その中に収容されているその暖房機能付のカバーが広げられて前記座部に座る人の少なくとも足部がそのカバーで被われるとともに、前記暖房機能付のカバーから発生する熱により前記座部に座る人の少なくとも足部が暖房されるものであっても良い。カバーに被われる保温空間に熱を伝える暖房装置として、暖房機能を備えたカバーを採用することができる。保温空間を被うカバー自体を暖房装置とすることで、保温空間内には効率的に熱が行き渡る。   In the chair with a covering function, the cover has an electric heating means therein, and is a cover with a heating function having a heating function that also serves as the heating device, and the drawer is pulled out. The cover with the heating function accommodated therein is spread, so that at least the foot of a person sitting on the seat is covered with the cover, and the heat generated by the cover with the heating function causes the seat to be closed. At least the feet of the person sitting on the floor may be heated. A cover having a heating function can be employed as a heating device that transmits heat to a heat retaining space covered by the cover. By using the cover itself that covers the heat retaining space as a heating device, heat is efficiently distributed throughout the heat retaining space.

また、本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、その椅子が備えられている引出しが収納された状態にあるときに、引出しの前板が引出しの収納空間にふたをする役割を果たすものであることが望ましい。本発明の被い機能付き椅子を使用しないときや、暖房機能を利用せず、一般的な椅子として使用するようなときには、外部に椅子の内部空間（引出しの収納空間）がさらされることは外観上好ましくない。従って、引出しの前板が、上記内部空間にふたをする役割を果たすものであれば、暖房装置（カバー等）が外部に露出せず、これらによって椅子全体の外観が損なわれることはない。   Further, in the chair with a covering function of the present invention, when the drawer provided with the chair is in the housed state, the front plate of the drawer serves to cover the drawer storage space. Is desirable. When the chair with a covering function of the present invention is not used, or when the chair is used as a general chair without using the heating function, the internal space (drawer storage space) of the chair is exposed to the outside. Not preferred. Therefore, as long as the front plate of the drawer plays a role of covering the internal space, the heating device (such as a cover) is not exposed to the outside, so that the appearance of the chair as a whole is not impaired.

また、本発明の被い機能付き椅子では、前記引出しは、前記底板と前記前板とで形成される略Ｌ字形状をなすものであってもよい。本発明の引出しは、カバー（以下、保温カバーとも言う）を収納するものであり、底板と前板以外に、背面板・左右側面板を特に必要としない。従って、前板と底板とのみからなる構造とすることで材料を減らし、コストダウンを図ることができる。   Further, in the chair with a covering function of the present invention, the drawer may have a substantially L shape formed by the bottom plate and the front plate. The drawer of the present invention accommodates a cover (hereinafter also referred to as a heat insulating cover), and does not particularly require a back plate and left and right side plates in addition to the bottom plate and the front plate. Therefore, by adopting a structure consisting only of the front plate and the bottom plate, the material can be reduced and the cost can be reduced.

以下、本発明の被い機能付き椅子の一実施例を、図面を用いて説明する。図１は、本発明の被い機能付き椅子の暖房機能を利用している状態を示した図であり、図２はその断面図である。また、図３は、本発明の被い機能付き椅子の暖房機能を利用していない状態を示す図であり、図４は、図３の引出し６を引き出した状態を示す図である。   Hereinafter, an embodiment of a chair with a covering function according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a view showing a state in which the heating function of the chair with a covering function of the present invention is used, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view thereof. 3 is a diagram showing a state in which the heating function of the chair with a covering function of the present invention is not used, and FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which the drawer 6 of FIG.

図１および図２に示すように、本発明の被い機能付き椅子（以下、単に椅子とも略す）１は、背もたれ部２、座部３とからなる椅子の腰掛部分と、この腰掛部分の下側を構成する椅子下部４と、その椅子下部４の内部空間４０に収納可能とされる引出し６と、保温カバー５と、暖房装置１０とを主として構成される。なお、本発明の被い機能付き椅子は、図１のような椅子構造に限られるものではなく、ソファーやマッサージチェア、車椅子、さらにはベッドなどをベースとすることもでき、少なくとも人が腰掛ける座部を有し、その下に引出しを設けることが可能な構造を備えるものであれば十分適用可能である。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a chair with a covering function (hereinafter, also simply referred to as a chair) 1 of the present invention includes a backrest portion 2, a seat portion 3 of a chair including a seat portion 3, and a portion under the seat portion. It mainly comprises a chair lower part 4 constituting a side, a drawer 6 which can be stored in an internal space 40 of the chair lower part 4, a heat insulating cover 5, and a heating device 10. The chair with a covering function of the present invention is not limited to the chair structure as shown in FIG. 1, but may be based on a sofa, a massage chair, a wheelchair, or a bed. Any structure having a portion and a structure capable of providing a drawer thereunder is sufficiently applicable.

椅子下部４は、椅子１の正面側のみが開口した内部空間４０を有する構造をなす。その内部空間４０には、図３および図４が示すように、引出し６が椅子１の正面側に出し入れ可能に備えられており、引出しが閉じた状態にある場合には、その開口が塞がれるように構成されている。この引出し６は、前板６ａと底板６ｂとからなる略Ｌ字型の形状をなしており、その前板６ａには保温カバー５の一端が固定されている。なお、引出し６の構造は、本実施例のＬ字形状のものに限られるものではない。たとえば、前板・左右側面板・背面板・底板とによって構成され、上部に開口部を有するようなボックス状の、一般的な引出し構造と同じような構造のものであってもよい。この場合、これらの板が保温空間を仕切る役割を果たし、保温効果が良くなる。また、引出しの前板には取手部等が形成されることが望ましく、これにより引出しの開閉を行い易くすることができる。   The chair lower part 4 has a structure having an internal space 40 that is open only on the front side of the chair 1. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a drawer 6 is provided in the interior space 40 so as to be able to be inserted and removed from the front side of the chair 1. When the drawer is in a closed state, its opening is closed. It is configured to be. The drawer 6 has a substantially L-shape including a front plate 6a and a bottom plate 6b, and one end of the heat retaining cover 5 is fixed to the front plate 6a. The structure of the drawer 6 is not limited to the L-shape of the present embodiment. For example, a box-like structure having a front plate, left and right side plates, a rear plate, and a bottom plate and having an opening at the top may be similar to a general drawer structure. In this case, these plates play the role of partitioning the heat insulation space, and the heat insulation effect is improved. Further, it is desirable that a handle portion or the like is formed on the front plate of the drawer, so that the drawer can be easily opened and closed.

保温カバー５は、座部３に座した人の少なくとも足部を被うように、更に望ましくは足元から上半身の必要な部分までを正面から被うように掛けて使用するものである。従って、この保温カバー５は、少なくともその程度の大きさを必要とし、さらに言えば、図１に示すように、人に掛けられた状態において、椅子下部４の側面下端に近いところまでが被われる程度の大きさを有することが望ましい。これにより、保温カバー５で囲まれた領域（保温空間）５０の熱が外部に逃れにくくすることができる。また、この保温カバー５は、未使用時には、折りたたむことで引出し６に収納され、椅子下部４の内部空間４０内にしまっておくことができる。従って、この保温カバー５は、引出しに収納可能であるために、折り畳んだり、自由に屈曲させたり、丸めたりできるような素材である必要があり、例えば布材のような柔軟性のある素材を用いることができる。さらに、この保温カバー５は引出しに対して着脱可能に取り付けられているため、保温カバーのみを丸洗いすることが可能である。本実施例では、引出し６の前板６ａに保温カバー５の一部が取り付けられている。なお、本実施例における保温カバーとしては、コタツ等に用いる布団等を用いるものとするが、本発明はこれに限定されるものではなく、少なくとも被った空間内の熱を保持することができ、かつ柔軟性のある素材であれば、特に限定はされない。   The heat retaining cover 5 is used so as to cover at least the foot of a person sitting on the seat 3, and more preferably to cover a necessary part of the upper body from the foot so as to cover from the front. Therefore, the heat retaining cover 5 needs to be at least as large as that, and more specifically, as shown in FIG. It is desirable to have a size of the order. This makes it difficult for the heat in the region (heat insulation space) 50 surrounded by the heat insulation cover 5 to escape to the outside. When not in use, the heat retaining cover 5 is folded and stored in the drawer 6 and can be stored in the internal space 40 of the lower part 4 of the chair. Therefore, in order to be able to be stored in the drawer, the heat retaining cover 5 needs to be made of a material that can be folded, bent freely, or rolled. For example, a flexible material such as a cloth material may be used. Can be used. Further, since the heat retaining cover 5 is detachably attached to the drawer, it is possible to wash only the heat retaining cover. In this embodiment, a part of the heat retaining cover 5 is attached to the front plate 6 a of the drawer 6. In addition, as the heat retaining cover in this embodiment, a futon or the like used for kotatsu or the like is used, but the present invention is not limited to this, and at least heat in the covered space can be retained, There is no particular limitation as long as the material is flexible.

暖房装置１０は、椅子下部４の内部空間４０において、引出し６の開閉動作に対して干渉することが無いように配置される。本実施例の暖房装置１０は、内部空間４０を構成する座部３側の面に固定され、外部に電源を求める電源コード１１を有する。本発明において使用される暖房装置１０の熱源は、発熱抵抗体であるヒーターを用いるものとし、図示されない操作部、例えばリモコンや椅子の一部に取り付けられた操作パネルのスイッチ等をＯＮとすることで発熱状態となる。なお、本発明の暖房装置は、引出しが引き出されたことに基づいて暖房装置がＯＮされるとしても良く、同時に引出しが収納されることに基づいて暖房装置がＯＦＦされるものであっても良い。また、本発明の暖房装置は、上記ヒーターに限定するものではなく、少なくとも保温空間内に熱を伝達することができれるものであれば、特に限定されない。また、この暖房装置に対しては、発生した熱を上記保温空間５０に伝達し易くする手段として、例えば図２のようにファン１２等を設けることができる。   The heating device 10 is arranged in the inner space 40 of the lower part 4 of the chair so as not to interfere with the opening and closing operation of the drawer 6. The heating device 10 according to the present embodiment has a power cord 11 fixed to a surface of the seat portion 3 side constituting the internal space 40 and requiring an external power source. As a heat source of the heating device 10 used in the present invention, a heater which is a heating resistor is used, and an operation unit (not shown), for example, a switch of an operation panel attached to a remote control or a part of a chair is turned on. And heat is generated. In the heating device of the present invention, the heating device may be turned on based on the drawer being pulled out, and may be turned off based on the drawer being stored at the same time. . In addition, the heating device of the present invention is not limited to the above-described heater, and is not particularly limited as long as heat can be transferred at least into the heat retaining space. Further, the heating device may be provided with, for example, a fan 12 or the like as shown in FIG.

ここで、本発明の被い機能付き椅子１の暖房機能を使用していない状態について説明する。この場合、図３に示すような状態となる。この状態では、通常の椅子と同じように腰掛けとして使用することができるが、椅子１の暖房機能を利用することはできない。これは、椅子下部４の内部空間４０が、保温カバー５が被う空間５０と連通していないためであり、この状態で暖房装置が発熱しても、外部に熱が伝わらないからである。なお、図３の状態においては、暖房装置１０や保温カバー５等の暖房設備が外部に露出せず、内部空間４０に収納されているため、これらによって椅子の外観が損なわれることはなく、一般的な椅子と同様にして利用することができる。   Here, a state where the heating function of the chair 1 with the covering function of the present invention is not used will be described. In this case, the state is as shown in FIG. In this state, the chair can be used as a stool in the same manner as a normal chair, but the heating function of the chair 1 cannot be used. This is because the internal space 40 of the lower part 4 of the chair is not in communication with the space 50 covered by the heat retaining cover 5, and even if the heating device generates heat in this state, no heat is transmitted to the outside. In the state of FIG. 3, since the heating equipment such as the heating device 10 and the heat retaining cover 5 is not exposed to the outside and is housed in the internal space 40, the appearance of the chair is not impaired by these, It can be used in the same way as a traditional chair.

次に、図３に示した本発明の被い機能付き椅子１の暖房機能を使用する場合について説明する。椅子１の暖房機能を利用するためには、まず、椅子下部４に収納されている引出し６を引き出した状態（開状態）とする必要がある（図４参照）。次いで、この引出し６に収納されている保温カバー５を広げるとともに、座部３に腰掛けて、図１に示すように保温カバー５を上半身の胸部まで掛ける。そして、図示されないスイッチをＯＮとすることで、椅子下部４の内部空間４０に備えられた暖房装置４０を発熱させる。これにより、暖房装置で発生した熱が、内部空間４０を介して保温カバーで被われる空間（保温空間）５０に導入され、この保温空間５０が暖められる。なお、保温カバー５が掛けられる位置は、腰までであったり、首下までであったりと、利用者の好みにより自由に変更してよい。なお、暖房装置ＯＦＦ状態であっても、椅子に座した人が保温カバー５をかけていれば、人そのものが暖房装置の役割を果たすため、座した人がある程度の暖を得ることは可能ではある。   Next, the case where the heating function of the chair 1 with the covering function of the present invention shown in FIG. 3 is used will be described. In order to use the heating function of the chair 1, it is necessary to first pull out the drawer 6 housed in the lower part 4 of the chair 1 (open state) (see FIG. 4). Next, the heat insulating cover 5 housed in the drawer 6 is spread, and at the same time, the heat insulating cover 5 is seated on the seat 3 and the heat insulating cover 5 is hung up to the upper body chest as shown in FIG. Then, by turning on a switch (not shown), the heating device 40 provided in the internal space 40 of the lower part 4 of the chair generates heat. Thereby, the heat generated by the heating device is introduced into the space (heat insulation space) 50 covered by the heat insulation cover via the internal space 40, and the heat insulation space 50 is heated. Note that the position where the heat retaining cover 5 is hung may be freely changed depending on the user's preference, such as to the waist or to the lower part of the neck. In addition, even if the heating device is in the OFF state, if the person sitting on the chair puts on the heat retaining cover 5, the person itself plays a role of the heating device, so that it is not possible for the seated person to obtain a certain amount of warmth. is there.

なお、本発明における暖房装置の配置位置は、本実施例のような椅子下部４の内部空間の座部３側に限定されるものではなく、上記保温空間５０内部に熱を伝えることが可能であれば特に限定されないが、引出しが椅子下部４に収納された状態において外部に露出することがない位置に備えられることが、外観上望ましい。   Note that the arrangement position of the heating device in the present invention is not limited to the seat 3 side of the internal space of the chair lower part 4 as in the present embodiment, and it is possible to transfer heat to the inside of the heat retaining space 50. There is no particular limitation as long as the drawer is housed in the lower part 4 of the chair.

以下、上記実施例とは異なる本発明の実施例について説明する。図５〜７は、上記実施例とは暖房装置の配置に関して違いを有する実施例である。図５に示す実施例は、暖房装置１０が引出しの前板６ａに設けられた被い機能付き椅子１ａである。この場合、暖房装置１０からの熱は、保温空間５０の足元部分から上方に伝わり、保温空間全体を暖めることができる。また、図６に示す実施例は、暖房装置１０が引出しの底板６ｂに設けられた被い機能付き椅子１ｂである。この場合、図５の場合と同様にして保温空間全体を暖めることができるとともに、底板６ｂは椅子に座した人の足置き板となっているため、底板６ｂに足を乗せることで、足を直接的に暖めることも可能となる。図７は、保温カバー５の内部に電気的な発熱手段を有しており、保温カバー５自体が暖房装置をなす被い機能付き椅子１ｃであり、例えば保温カバー５として電気毛布のようなものを採用した場合である。この場合、保温空間５０内には、その空間を被う保温カバー５から直接的に熱が伝えられる。なお、図６や図７の場合は、暖房装置部分から接触によって直接的に熱が伝わる構造を有するが、これらの場合は、暖房装置部分との接触状態から非接触状態となることは、足腰の弱いものであっても比較的容易である。なお、暖房装置は必ずしも１つ１箇所である必要はなく、例えばこれらの実施例を組み合わせたような形態をなしても良い。   Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention that is different from the above embodiment will be described. 5 to 7 show an embodiment having a difference from the above embodiment in the arrangement of the heating device. The embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is a chair 1a with a covering function in which a heating device 10 is provided on a front plate 6a of a drawer. In this case, the heat from the heating device 10 is transmitted upward from the feet of the heat retaining space 50, and the entire heat retaining space can be warmed. The embodiment shown in FIG. 6 is a chair 1b with a covering function in which the heating device 10 is provided on the bottom plate 6b of the drawer. In this case, the entire heat retaining space can be warmed in the same manner as in the case of FIG. 5, and since the bottom plate 6b is a footrest plate of a person sitting on a chair, the feet can be put on the bottom plate 6b, Direct heating is also possible. FIG. 7 shows an electric heating means inside the heat retaining cover 5, and the heat retaining cover 5 itself is a covered chair 1 c forming a heating device. For example, the heat retaining cover 5 is an electric blanket. This is the case where is adopted. In this case, heat is directly transmitted into the heat retaining space 50 from the heat retaining cover 5 covering the space. In addition, in the case of FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the structure has a structure in which heat is directly transmitted by contact from the heating device portion. It is relatively easy even if it is weak. Note that the heating devices do not necessarily have to be provided one by one, and for example, a form in which these embodiments are combined may be employed.

また、本発明においては、これらの暖房装置がなくてもよい。図１のように椅子に座した人を保温カバーで被った状態では、座した人そのものが暖房装置の役割を果たすため、暖房装置が備えられていなくとも保温空間内にある程度の熱を伝え、留めることができる。   Further, in the present invention, these heating devices may not be provided. In the state where the person sitting on the chair is covered with the heat retaining cover as shown in FIG. 1, the person sitting on the chair itself plays a role of a heating device, so that even if a heating device is not provided, some heat is transmitted into the heat retaining space, Can be fastened.
