ところで、脚支柱の下端部にキャスタを備えて移動可能としたテーブル等の天板付き家具においても、配線処理の便を向上させることが有効である点で事情は同じである。   By the way, the situation is the same in that it is effective to improve the convenience of the wiring process even in furniture with a top plate such as a table provided with a caster at the lower end portion of the leg column and movable.

しかしながら、このようなキャスタ付きの脚支柱に配線を通すためには、従来の構造を持つ脚とは異なる事情がある。例えば、脚に配線を通したままで天板付き家具を移動すると、キャスタと配線が絡まってスムーズな移動ができないばかりか、断線する恐れがある。また、配線溝が配線を引っ張ってしまうことにより、天板上に置かれて配線と接続されたPCなどの電気・電子機器が床に落下したり、やはり配線溝によって配線が断線してしまうなどの危険性がある。よって、キャスタ付きの脚支柱を用いて配線溝を備えるには、上記従来の配線溝を備えた脚支柱にはない工夫が必要である。   However, there is a situation different from that of a leg having a conventional structure in order to pass wiring through such a leg column with casters. For example, if the furniture with a top plate is moved while the wiring is passed through the legs, the casters and the wiring are entangled and there is a risk of not being able to move smoothly but also disconnecting. In addition, when the wiring groove pulls the wiring, an electric / electronic device such as a PC placed on the top board and connected to the wiring falls on the floor, or the wiring is also disconnected by the wiring groove. There is a danger of. Therefore, in order to provide a wiring groove using a leg column with casters, a device that is not present in the conventional leg column including the wiring groove is required.

本発明は、このような課題を解決する構造の脚およびこれを利用した天板付き家具を提供することを目的とする。   An object of this invention is to provide the leg of the structure which solves such a subject, and the furniture with a top plate using the same.

本発明は、かかる目的を達成するために、次のような手段を講じたものである。   In order to achieve this object, the present invention takes the following measures.

すなわち、本願における第1の発明の脚内配線構造を有する脚は、脚支柱の下端側にキャスタを備えたものであって、前記脚支柱は、下端部にキャスタ取付部を有した支柱本体と、この支柱本体のうち前記キャスタ取付部から所定距離上方へ変位した位置より始まって当該支柱本体の上端部にまで延びる配線溝と、当該配線溝に対して着脱可能なカバーとを具備し、前記キャスタ取付部にキャスタを取り付けるとともに、前記支柱本体にカバーを装着した状態で前記配線溝の上端部と下端部にそれぞれ配線出入口を開口させてなり、下端側の配線出入口の開口付近に、配線溝内の配線を脚支柱の長手方向と異なる方向に案内する傾斜若しくは湾曲したガイド部を設けたことを特徴とする。 That is, the leg having the intra-leg wiring structure according to the first aspect of the present invention is provided with a caster on the lower end side of the leg support, and the leg support includes a support main body having a caster attaching portion at the lower end. A wiring groove starting from a position displaced from the caster mounting portion by a predetermined distance above the caster body and extending to the upper end of the pillar body, and a cover removable from the wiring groove, is attached to casters caster mounting portion, said post body respectively to open the wire entrance to the upper and lower ends of the wiring groove in a state of mounting the cover on and Ri Na, near the opening of the wiring entrance of the lower end side, wiring An inclined or curved guide portion for guiding the wiring in the groove in a direction different from the longitudinal direction of the leg support is provided .

このように、キャスタを備えた脚において、キャスタ取付部の上方に配線溝を設け、その配線溝の上端部と下端部とに配線出入口を開口させれば、キャスタの邪魔にならないように配線を引き回すことができる。さらに、下端側の配線出入口の開口付近に、配線溝内の配線を脚支柱の長手方向と異なる方向に案内する傾斜若しくは湾曲したガイド部を設けていることから、配線がキャスタに向かわないようにガイドすることもできる。 In this way, in the legs equipped with casters, if a wiring groove is provided above the caster mounting portion and the wiring inlet / outlet is opened at the upper end and lower end of the wiring groove, wiring is performed so as not to interfere with the caster. Can be routed. In addition, there is an inclined or curved guide section that guides the wiring in the wiring groove in a direction different from the longitudinal direction of the leg support near the opening of the wiring entrance on the lower end side, so that the wiring does not face the caster. You can also guide.

配線に対してより適切なガイドをなすためには、ガイド部の傾斜方向もしくは開口端における接線方向が、キャスタの首振りに必要な動作空間と交わらないように設定していることが望ましい。In order to provide a more appropriate guide for the wiring, it is desirable that the inclination direction of the guide portion or the tangential direction at the opening end is set so as not to intersect the operation space necessary for swinging the caster.

また、脚支柱の強度向上とともに、内部の配線整理のためには、配線溝内における溝幅方向の中央部に、支柱本体の長手方向に沿って延びる縦リブを形成していることが好ましい。Further, in order to improve the strength of the leg struts and to organize the internal wiring, it is preferable that a longitudinal rib extending along the longitudinal direction of the strut body is formed in the central portion of the wiring groove in the groove width direction.

本願における第2の発明の脚内配線構造を有する脚は、脚支柱の下端側にキャスタを備えたものであって、前記脚支柱は、下端部にキャスタ取付部を有した支柱本体と、この支柱本体のうち前記キャスタ取付部から所定距離上方へ変位した位置より始まって当該支柱本体の上端部にまで延びる配線溝と、当該配線溝に対して着脱可能なカバーとを具備し、前記キャスタ取付部にキャスタを取り付けるとともに、前記支柱本体にカバーを装着した状態で前記配線溝の上端部と下端部にそれぞれ配線出入口を開口させてなり、配線溝内における溝幅方向の中央部に、支柱本体の長手方向に沿って延びる縦リブを形成したことを特徴とする。このように、キャスタを備えた脚において、キャスタ取付部の上方に配線溝を設け、その配線溝の上端部と下端部とに配線出入口を開口させれば、キャスタの邪魔にならないように配線を引き回すことができる。さらに、配線溝内における溝幅方向の中央部に、支柱本体の長手方向に沿って延びる縦リブを形成していることから、脚支柱の強度向上とともに、内部の配線整理を行うことができる。The leg having the intra-leg wiring structure of the second invention in the present application is provided with a caster on the lower end side of the leg strut, and the leg strut has a column main body having a caster attaching portion at the lower end, A wiring groove starting from a position displaced from the caster mounting portion by a predetermined distance in the column main body and extending to an upper end of the column main body, and a cover removable from the wiring groove; A caster is attached to the section, and a wiring inlet / outlet is opened at each of the upper end and lower end of the wiring groove with the cover attached to the column main body. A vertical rib extending along the longitudinal direction is formed. In this way, in the legs equipped with casters, if a wiring groove is provided above the caster mounting portion and the wiring inlet / outlet is opened at the upper end and lower end of the wiring groove, wiring is performed so as not to interfere with the caster. Can be routed. Furthermore, since the vertical rib extending along the longitudinal direction of the column main body is formed in the central portion of the wiring groove in the groove width direction, the internal wiring arrangement can be performed while improving the strength of the leg column.

配線機能を損なうことなく、脚支柱の更なる強度向上を図るためには、支柱本体の長手方向に沿った間欠位置に当該長手方向と交叉する横リブを設け、この横リブの一部を切り欠いて配線溝の溝底を形成していることが望ましい。In order to further improve the strength of the leg strut without impairing the wiring function, a lateral rib that intersects the longitudinal direction is provided at an intermittent position along the longitudinal direction of the strut body, and a part of the lateral rib is cut. It is desirable that the groove bottom of the wiring groove is formed.

本願における第3の発明の脚内配線構造を有する脚は、脚支柱の下端側にキャスタを備えたものであって、前記脚支柱は、下端部にキャスタ取付部を有した支柱本体と、この支柱本体のうち前記キャスタ取付部から所定距離上方へ変位した位置より始まって当該支柱本体の上端部にまで延びる配線溝と、当該配線溝に対して着脱可能なカバーとを具備し、前記キャスタ取付部にキャスタを取り付けるとともに、前記支柱本体にカバーを装着した状態で前記配線溝の上端部と下端部にそれぞれ配線出入口を開口させてなり、配線溝およびカバーを下に向かって先細り形状にし、装着後にカバーを配線溝に対して下方に微動させることによって、カバーの側縁と支柱本体の対応する開口縁とを密着させ得るようにしたことを特徴とする。このように、キャスタを備えた脚において、キャスタ取付部の上方に配線溝を設け、その配線溝の上端部と下端部とに配線出入口を開口させれば、キャスタの邪魔にならないように配線を引き回すことができる。さらに、配線溝およびカバーを下に向かって先細り形状にし、装着後にカバーを配線溝に対して下方に微動させることによって、カバーの側縁と支柱本体の対応する開口縁とを密着させ得るようにしていることから、カバー装着状態で端正な外観を確保することができる。The leg having the in-leg wiring structure of the third invention in the present application is provided with a caster on the lower end side of the leg support, and the leg support has a support body having a caster mounting portion at the lower end, A wiring groove starting from a position displaced from the caster mounting portion by a predetermined distance in the column main body and extending to an upper end of the column main body, and a cover removable from the wiring groove; At the same time, the caster is attached to the section, and with the cover attached to the column main body, the upper and lower ends of the wiring groove are opened with the wiring entrances, and the wiring groove and the cover are tapered toward the bottom. It is characterized in that the side edge of the cover and the corresponding opening edge of the column main body can be brought into close contact with each other by finely moving the cover downward with respect to the wiring groove. In this way, in the legs equipped with casters, if a wiring groove is provided above the caster mounting portion and the wiring inlet / outlet is opened at the upper end and lower end of the wiring groove, wiring is performed so as not to interfere with the caster. Can be routed. Furthermore, the wiring groove and the cover are tapered downward, and the cover is slightly moved downward with respect to the wiring groove after mounting, so that the side edge of the cover and the corresponding opening edge of the column main body can be brought into close contact with each other. Therefore, a neat appearance can be ensured with the cover mounted.

配線処理の便を有効に向上させるためには、支柱本体に被係り合い部を設定する一方、カバーを前記配線溝を塞ぐ方向に押圧することによって前記被係り合い部に係り合う係り合い部を具備してなるものにし、前記カバーに前記押圧方向と逆方向の引き剥がし力が作用することによって、前記係り合い部と前記被係り合い部との係り合い状態が解除されるように構成することが効果的である。In order to effectively improve the convenience of the wiring process, the engaged portion is set on the column main body, while the engaged portion engaged with the engaged portion is pressed by pressing the cover in the direction of closing the wiring groove. And the engagement state between the engaging portion and the engaged portion is released when a peeling force in the direction opposite to the pressing direction acts on the cover. Is effective.

配線を有効に収納するとともに、カバーの引き剥がしを簡単にし、かつ配線にストレスが掛かることを防止するためには、支柱本体の配線溝の上下端部とカバーの長手方向の上下端部との間に配線出入口を形成していることが有効である。In order to store the wiring effectively, simplify the peeling of the cover, and prevent the wiring from being stressed, the upper and lower ends of the wiring groove of the column body and the upper and lower ends of the cover in the longitudinal direction It is effective to form a wiring entrance between them.

配線の導出入方向によらず、配線にストレスが掛かることを防止するためには、少なくとも下端側の配線出入口が、配線溝の端部とカバーの長手方向の端部との間に略円形状に形成されていることも好都合である。To prevent stress from being applied to the wiring regardless of the direction in which the wiring is led in / out, at least the wiring inlet / outlet on the lower end side is substantially circular between the end of the wiring groove and the end of the cover in the longitudinal direction. It is also convenient that it is formed.

左右の弾性爪の間に配線空間を確保しつつ、カバーと配線溝との具体的な脱着構造を有効に実現するためには、係り合い部が、カバーの左右の縁部から配線溝に向かって延びる弾性爪であるとともに、被係り合い部が前記配線溝の内面における左右対応位置に設けた凹所であり、前記左右の弾性爪が互いに相離れる方向の弾性力によって前記凹所に係り合り、互いに相寄る方向の弾性変形によって前記凹所との係り合いを解除するように構成していることが有効である。In order to effectively realize a specific detaching structure between the cover and the wiring groove while securing a wiring space between the left and right elastic claws, the engaging portion is directed from the left and right edges of the cover toward the wiring groove. And the engaged portion is a recess provided at the left and right corresponding positions on the inner surface of the wiring groove, and the left and right elastic claws are engaged with the recess by an elastic force in a direction away from each other. In other words, it is effective that the engagement with the recess is released by elastic deformation in a direction close to each other.

カバーに配線を引っかけた状態のままで、配線がカバーから食み出さない状態で配線溝に取付けるためには、カバーの係り合い部を利用し、カバーを支柱本体に装着する前の状態で配線をカバーの側縁から側方に食み出すことを規制する規制部を構成していることが適当である。To attach to the wiring groove with the wiring hooked on the cover and the wiring not protruding from the cover, use the engagement part of the cover and wire the cable before attaching the cover to the column body. It is appropriate to configure a restricting portion that restricts the cover from protruding sideways from the side edge of the cover.

そして、上記の脚3本以上で天板を支持することにより天板付き家具を構成すれば、当該天板付き家具が基本的に天板と脚のみの簡易な構造であっても、配線機能を有効に付与することができる。   If the furniture with a top plate is configured by supporting the top plate with three or more legs as described above, even if the furniture with the top plate is basically a simple structure with only the top plate and the legs, the wiring function Can be effectively provided.

本発明は、以上説明した構成であるから、キャスタ取付部の上方に配線溝を設け、その配線溝の上端部と下端部とに配線出入口を開口させたので、キャスタの邪魔にならないように配線を引き回すことができる。その結果、脚に配線を通したままで天板付き家具を移動するような場合に、キャスタと配線が絡まることがなくなる。また、配線が引っ張られることで、天板上に置かれたPCなどの電気・電子機器が床に落下したり、配線が断線するなどの危険性も低減することができる。   Since the present invention has the configuration described above, a wiring groove is provided above the caster mounting portion, and a wiring inlet / outlet is opened at the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the wiring groove so that the wiring is not disturbed by the caster. Can be routed. As a result, when the furniture with the top plate is moved while the wiring is passed through the legs, the caster and the wiring are not tangled. In addition, by pulling the wiring, it is possible to reduce the risk that an electric / electronic device such as a PC placed on the top plate falls on the floor or the wiring is disconnected.

以下、本発明の一実施形態を、図面を参照して説明する。   Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

この実施形態の脚内配線構造を有する脚Bは、図1に示すように、天板Aの四隅下面を支持する位置に計4本配置されて、テーブル等の天板付き家具Tを構成する。   As shown in FIG. 1, a total of four legs B having the intra-leg wiring structure of this embodiment are arranged at positions that support the bottom surfaces of the four corners of the top board A, and constitute a furniture T with a top board such as a table. .

天板Aの四隅下面には脚受けブラケットA1を備えてあり、各脚Bはこの脚受けブラケットA1に固定されている。   A leg support bracket A1 is provided on the lower surface of the four corners of the top plate A, and each leg B is fixed to the leg support bracket A1.

各脚Bは、図2〜図7に示すように、脚支柱1と、カバー2と、キャスタ3とによって構成される。   Each leg B is comprised by the leg support | pillar 1, the cover 2, and the caster 3, as shown in FIGS.

脚支柱1は、図2(a)に示されるように、アルミダイキャスト製の支柱本体11を主体として構成されるもので、支柱本体11は、全体が鉛直下方に向かって略先細り形状をなし、脚支柱1の下端部1bにキャスタ取付部11bが設定されるとともに、さらに脚支柱1の上端部1aには、配線溝12側にやや食み出した状態で脚受けブラケット取付部11eが設けられている。そして、脚内配線構造を実現すべく、配線溝12を形成している。   As shown in FIG. 2A, the leg support 1 is mainly composed of a support body 11 made of aluminum die cast, and the support body 11 has a generally tapered shape as a whole vertically downward. The caster mounting portion 11b is set on the lower end portion 1b of the leg support 1, and the upper end portion 1a of the leg support 1 is provided with a leg receiving bracket mounting portion 11e slightly protruding toward the wiring groove 12 side. It has been. And the wiring groove | channel 12 is formed in order to implement | achieve the wiring structure in a leg.

配線溝12は、キャスタ取付部11bから所定距離上方へ変位した位置Qより始まって支柱本体11の上端部11aの位置Pまで延び、上方から下方に向かって先細り形状をなしているもので、支柱本体11の中身をえぐる状態で設けられている。   The wiring groove 12 starts from a position Q displaced upward by a predetermined distance from the caster mounting portion 11b, extends to a position P of the upper end portion 11a of the column body 11, and has a tapered shape from above to below. It is provided in a state in which the contents of the main body 11 are surrounded.

また、図3に示すように、配線溝12の下端部12b付近に、配線空間12xの配線Xを脚支柱1の長手方向と異なる方向に案内する傾斜したガイド部121が設けられている。このガイド部121の傾斜方向Cはキャスタ2の首振り動作に必要な空間Yと交わらないように設定してあり、開口端は略半円状をなしているものである。   As shown in FIG. 3, an inclined guide portion 121 that guides the wiring X in the wiring space 12 x in a direction different from the longitudinal direction of the leg support 1 is provided near the lower end portion 12 b of the wiring groove 12. The inclination direction C of the guide portion 121 is set so as not to intersect with the space Y necessary for the swinging motion of the caster 2, and the opening end has a substantially semicircular shape.

そして、配線溝12における溝幅方向の中央には、図4に示すように、縦リブ122が縦断しており、支柱本体11の長手方向に沿った間欠位置には、縦リブ122と交叉する横リブ123が横断している。横リブ123は、配線空間12xが開口している側の縁部の一部を切り欠くことで、溝底123aの上方にまで配線空間12xが確保してある。この場合、配線空間12xは、縦リブ122の両側に二分され、配線Xの棲み分けが可能とされている。   As shown in FIG. 4, vertical ribs 122 are longitudinally cut in the center of the wiring groove 12 in the groove width direction, and intersect with the vertical ribs 122 at intermittent positions along the longitudinal direction of the column main body 11. The lateral rib 123 crosses. The lateral rib 123 has the wiring space 12x secured above the groove bottom 123a by cutting out part of the edge on the side where the wiring space 12x is open. In this case, the wiring space 12x is divided into two sides on both sides of the vertical rib 122 so that the wiring X can be divided.

また、支柱本体11の左右の側縁11c、11dにおける内面12yには、長手方向に沿った間欠位置に、被係り合い部である凹所124が矩形状に設けられている。より具体的には、配線溝12の上下端部近傍にそれぞれ1箇所と、配線溝12の長手方向中間部に2箇所の計4箇所に凹所124が設けられている。脚支柱1の成型時における型抜きの方向がカバー2を着脱する方向であるとすると、凹所124を設けるためにはスライド型を使う必要があるのが通例であるが、本実施形態では縦リブ122の高さを凹所124よりも内奥に在るように抑え、配線空間12x内に凹所124を切削するための回転刃の挿入しろを確保している。   Further, the inner surface 12y of the left and right side edges 11c and 11d of the column main body 11 is provided with a recess 124 which is an engaged portion in a rectangular shape at an intermittent position along the longitudinal direction. More specifically, the recesses 124 are provided at a total of four locations, one in the vicinity of the upper and lower ends of the wiring groove 12 and two in the longitudinal middle portion of the wiring groove 12. Assuming that the direction of mold release during molding of the leg support 1 is the direction in which the cover 2 is attached / detached, in order to provide the recess 124, it is usual to use a slide mold. The height of the rib 122 is suppressed so as to be inward of the recess 124, and a margin for inserting a rotary blade for cutting the recess 124 in the wiring space 12x is secured.

一方、カバー2は、図2(b)に示されるように、配線溝12に沿って延び、全体が下方に向かって先細り形状をなす樹脂成型体で、カバー2の中央には、カバーリブ21が長手方向に縦断しており、カバー2の上下端部22a、22bはカバー中央に向かって略半円状にえぐった形状をなしている。そして、カバー2の側縁2a、2bから、係り合い部たる弾性爪24が、支柱本体11の側縁11c、11dに向かって突出しており、前記凹所124と係り合うように構成されている。   On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2B, the cover 2 is a resin molded body that extends along the wiring groove 12 and tapers downward as a whole. A cover rib 21 is formed at the center of the cover 2. The upper and lower ends 22a and 22b of the cover 2 have a substantially semicircular shape toward the center of the cover. An elastic claw 24 as an engaging portion protrudes from the side edges 2a and 2b of the cover 2 toward the side edges 11c and 11d of the column main body 11, and is configured to engage with the recess 124. .

図5(a)に示すように、凹所124と係り合う弾性爪24の爪部24aは、凹所124の内壁124aに対してやや傾斜している。そして、カバー2を配線溝12へ装着する場合には、図5(c)→(b)→(a)の順番で弾性爪24が一時的に相寄る方向に弾性変形した後に復元して爪部24aが内壁124aに沿うように凹所124と係り合い、カバー2を配線溝12から引き剥がす場合には、今度は逆に図5(a)→(b)→(c)の順番で弾性爪24が一時的に相寄る方向に弾性変形して爪部24aが内壁124aから離脱することで弾性爪24と凹所124との係り合い状態を解除される。本実施形態で、凹所124の上下寸法は弾性爪24の上下寸法よりも若干大きく設定してある。   As shown in FIG. 5A, the claw portion 24 a of the elastic claw 24 that engages with the recess 124 is slightly inclined with respect to the inner wall 124 a of the recess 124. When the cover 2 is attached to the wiring groove 12, the nail 24 is restored after being elastically deformed in the direction in which the elastic claw 24 temporarily approaches in the order of FIG. 5 (c) → (b) → (a). When the portion 24a is engaged with the recess 124 so as to be along the inner wall 124a and the cover 2 is peeled off from the wiring groove 12, it is elastic in the order of FIG. 5 (a) → (b) → (c). When the claw 24 is temporarily elastically deformed in the direction in which the claw 24 approaches, the claw portion 24a is detached from the inner wall 124a, so that the engaged state between the elastic claw 24 and the recess 124 is released. In this embodiment, the vertical dimension of the recess 124 is set slightly larger than the vertical dimension of the elastic claw 24.

このような左右の弾性爪24、24の間も、図4(b)に示すカバー2の閉止状態で配線空間Zとしての利用が可能とされている。この弾性爪24は、カバー2を支柱本体11に装着する前の図9に示す状態で配線Xをカバー2の側縁2a、2bから側方に食み出すことを規制する規制部25としての役割も果たしている。   The space between the left and right elastic claws 24, 24 can also be used as the wiring space Z when the cover 2 is closed as shown in FIG. The elastic claw 24 serves as a restricting portion 25 that restricts the wiring X from protruding laterally from the side edges 2a and 2b of the cover 2 in the state shown in FIG. 9 before the cover 2 is attached to the column main body 11. It also plays a role.

カバー2を配線溝12へ装着後には、図6に示すように、配線溝12の上下端部12a、12bとカバーの上下端部22a、22bとが対向する位置に配線出入口4、5が構成される。特に、下端側の配線出入口5は、図中矢印Vで示す水平方向からみて略円形状をなしている。   After the cover 2 is mounted in the wiring groove 12, as shown in FIG. 6, the wiring entrances 4 and 5 are configured at positions where the upper and lower ends 12a and 12b of the wiring groove 12 and the upper and lower ends 22a and 22b of the cover face each other. Is done. In particular, the wiring entrance / exit 5 on the lower end side has a substantially circular shape when viewed from the horizontal direction indicated by an arrow V in the drawing.

キャスタ3は、図3や図7に示すように、キャスタ本体31と、車輪32と、キャスタ取付軸33とによって構成され、脚支柱1のキャスタ取付部11bに取り付けられる。   As shown in FIGS. 3 and 7, the caster 3 includes a caster body 31, a wheel 32, and a caster mounting shaft 33, and is attached to the caster mounting portion 11 b of the leg column 1.

キャスタ取付部11bは、下端に開口するシリンダ11fを備え、そのシリンダ11f内においてキャスタ取付軸33に圧縮される位置にバネ11eが組み込んであり、没入位置と突出位置の間でキャスタ3にダンパー作用を営ませることができる。キャスタ3はキャスタ取付軸33を回転中心として回動可能である。   The caster mounting portion 11b includes a cylinder 11f that opens at the lower end. A spring 11e is incorporated in the cylinder 11f at a position compressed by the caster mounting shaft 33, and a damper action is applied to the caster 3 between the immersion position and the protruding position. Can be run. The caster 3 is rotatable about the caster mounting shaft 33 as a rotation center.

図8に示すように、脚受けブラケットA1の裏面における配線出入口4の近傍には、釣り針状のフック6がネジ61によって取付けられており、このフック6に配線出入口4から引き出した配線Xを引っかけることで、配線Xの整理整頓の便を確保している。   As shown in FIG. 8, a fishhook-like hook 6 is attached with a screw 61 in the vicinity of the wiring inlet / outlet 4 on the back surface of the leg receiving bracket A <b> 1, and the wiring X drawn out from the wiring inlet / outlet 4 is hooked on the hook 6. Thus, the convenience of organizing the wiring X is ensured.

次に、本実施形態の使用状態を説明する。図9に示すように、使用者が、図示しない指手で配線Xをカバー2の裏面2cに当てつつ、カバー2の上下端部22a、22bから配線Xを引き出した状態に当該カバー2を摘んで、配線溝12の開口に嵌め合わせ、図10に矢印Wで示すように配線溝12に向かってカバー2を押圧する。このとき、図4(a)→(b)に示すように弾性爪24と凹所124が係り合う。過剰な押し込みに対しては、カバーリブ21が支柱本体11の縦リブ122に突き当たってそれ以上の押し込みが規制され、カバー2の損傷や不当な嵌め合い状態が回避される。そして、前述のように凹所124の上下寸法は弾性爪24の上下寸法よりも若干大きく設定してあるため、仮に凹所124内のやや上側に嵌り合っても、そのままカバー2を配線溝12に対して下方に微動させることで、図11(a)→(b)に示すように、カバーの側縁2a、2bと対応する配線溝12の開口縁12c、12dとが密着する。この状態で、図10に示すように、カバー2の長さ分だけ配線Xを隠蔽し得る。   Next, the use state of this embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 9, the user holds the cover 2 in a state in which the wiring X is pulled out from the upper and lower end portions 22 a and 22 b of the cover 2 while applying the wiring X to the back surface 2 c of the cover 2 with a finger not shown. Then, the cover 2 is fitted into the opening of the wiring groove 12 and the cover 2 is pressed toward the wiring groove 12 as indicated by an arrow W in FIG. At this time, the elastic claw 24 and the recess 124 are engaged as shown in FIGS. For excessive push-in, the cover rib 21 abuts against the vertical rib 122 of the column main body 11 and further push-in is restricted, so that the cover 2 is not damaged or improperly fitted. Since the vertical dimension of the recess 124 is set to be slightly larger than the vertical dimension of the elastic claw 24 as described above, even if the recess 124 fits slightly above the recess 124, the cover 2 is left as it is. As shown in FIGS. 11A to 11B, the cover side edges 2a and 2b and the corresponding opening edges 12c and 12d of the wiring groove 12 are brought into close contact with each other. In this state, as shown in FIG. 10, the wiring X can be hidden by the length of the cover 2.

そして、図1や図12に示すように、例えば配線Xを電源ケーブルとすると、配線Xの先端にある電源コネクタX1が壁Dに設けられたコンセント差し込み口D1に接続された状態で使用者が天板付き家具Tを移動させようとした場合、配線Xがカバー2の配線出入口5に引っかかり、配線Xが、前述の押圧方向とは逆方向の引き剥がし力Fがカバー2の下端部22bに対して作用することで、カバー2が配線溝12から外れるようになる。特に、弾性爪24と凹所124とによる係り合い部の一つがカバー2の下端部22bの近傍にあり、その係り合い構造からしても、カバー2の剥離は比較的容易になされることになる。勿論、配線出入口5に指を挿し込んでカバー2の下端部22bを手前に引いても、カバー2の剥離を容易に行うことができる。これらの事情は、カバー2の上端部22a側においてもほぼ同様である。   As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 12, for example, if the wiring X is a power cable, the user can connect the power connector X1 at the tip of the wiring X to the outlet D1 provided on the wall D. When trying to move the furniture T with the top plate, the wiring X is caught by the wiring entrance / exit 5 of the cover 2, and the peeling force F in the direction opposite to the pressing direction described above is applied to the lower end 22 b of the cover 2. By acting against the cover 2, the cover 2 comes off the wiring groove 12. In particular, one of the engaging portions of the elastic claw 24 and the recess 124 is in the vicinity of the lower end portion 22b of the cover 2, and the cover 2 can be peeled relatively easily even from the engaging structure. Become. Of course, even if a finger is inserted into the wiring entrance 5 and the lower end 22b of the cover 2 is pulled forward, the cover 2 can be easily peeled off. These circumstances are substantially the same on the upper end portion 22a side of the cover 2.

以上のように、本実施形態の脚Bは、脚支柱1の下端側にキャスタ3を備えたものであり、前記脚支柱1は、下端部1aにキャスタ取付部11bを有した支柱本体11と、この支柱本体11のうち前記キャスタ取付部11bから所定距離上方へ変位した位置Qより始まって当該支柱本体11の上端部11bの位置Pにまで延びる配線溝12と、当該配線溝12に対して着脱可能なカバー2とを具備し、前記キャスタ取付部11bにキャスタ3を取り付けるとともに、前記支柱本体11にカバー2を装着した状態で前記配線溝12の上端部12aと下端部12bにそれぞれ配線出入口4、5を開口させたので、キャスタ2の邪魔にならないように配線Xを引き回すことができる。   As described above, the leg B of the present embodiment is provided with the caster 3 on the lower end side of the leg column 1, and the leg column 1 includes the column main body 11 having the caster mounting portion 11 b at the lower end portion 1 a. The wiring groove 12 starting from a position Q of the column main body 11 displaced upward by a predetermined distance from the caster mounting portion 11b and extending to the position P of the upper end portion 11b of the column main body 11 and the wiring groove 12 The caster 3 is attached to the caster attaching part 11b, and the upper and lower ends 12a and 12b of the wiring groove 12 are connected to the entrances and exits, respectively, with the caster 3 attached to the caster attaching part 11b. Since the openings 4 and 5 are opened, the wiring X can be routed so as not to interfere with the caster 2.

この場合、下端側の配線出入口5の開口付近に、配線溝内12xの配線Xを脚支柱1の長手方向と異なる方向に案内する傾斜したガイド部121を設けているので、配線Xがキャスタ2に向かわないようにガイドすることができる。   In this case, an inclined guide portion 121 that guides the wiring X in the wiring groove 12x in a direction different from the longitudinal direction of the leg support 1 is provided near the opening of the wiring entrance 5 on the lower end side. It can be guided not to go to.

特に、ガイド部121の傾斜方向Cが、キャスタ3の首振りに必要な動作空間Yと交わらないように設定しているために、配線Xに対してより適切なガイドをなすことができる。   In particular, since the inclination direction C of the guide portion 121 is set so as not to intersect with the operation space Y necessary for swinging the caster 3, a more appropriate guide can be provided for the wiring X.

また、支柱本体11に被係り合い部たる凹所124を設定する一方、カバー2を前記配線溝12を塞ぐ方向に押圧することによって前記凹所124に係り合う係り合い部たる弾性爪24を具備してなるものにし、前記カバー2に前記押圧方向とは逆方向の引き剥がし力Fが作用することによって、前記弾性爪24が前記凹所124との係り合い状態が解除されるように構成しているので、カバー2を支柱本体11に対して簡単に脱着することができ、配線処理の便を有効に向上させることができる。   In addition, a recess 124 that is an engaged portion is set in the support body 11, and an elastic claw 24 that is an engaging portion that engages with the recess 124 by pressing the cover 2 in a direction to close the wiring groove 12. When the peeling force F in the direction opposite to the pressing direction is applied to the cover 2, the engagement between the elastic claw 24 and the recess 124 is released. Therefore, the cover 2 can be easily attached to and detached from the column main body 11, and the convenience of wiring processing can be improved effectively.

加えて、支柱本体11の配線溝12の上下端部12a、12bとカバー2の長手方向の上下端部22a、22bとの間に配線出入口4、5を形成しているので、脚Bのほぼ全体に亘って配線Xを収納することができるとともに、配線出入口4、5に指を掛けることによって簡単にカバー2を引き剥がすことができる。また、仮に配線溝内12xの配線Xが配線出入口5等から引き出されて壁DのコンセントD1等に接続された状態のままで天板付き家具Tを移動させようとしても、配線Xに一定以上の力が加わったときにカバー2が引き剥がされるため、配線Xにストレスが掛かることを防止して、損傷や破損から有効に保護することができる。これは、配線出入口4から引き出された配線が天板A上に置かれたPCに接続されている状態でPCが引きずられた場合等にも同様である。   In addition, since the wiring entrances 4 and 5 are formed between the upper and lower ends 12a and 12b of the wiring groove 12 of the column main body 11 and the upper and lower ends 22a and 22b in the longitudinal direction of the cover 2, The wiring X can be accommodated throughout, and the cover 2 can be easily peeled off by placing a finger on the wiring entrances 4 and 5. Even if the furniture T with the top plate is moved while the wiring X in the wiring groove 12x is pulled out from the wiring entrance 5 and connected to the outlet D1 of the wall D, the wiring X exceeds a certain level. Since the cover 2 is peeled off when the force is applied, it is possible to prevent the wiring X from being stressed and to effectively protect it from damage or breakage. The same applies to the case where the PC is dragged while the wiring drawn out from the wiring entrance 4 is connected to the PC placed on the top board A.

また、少なくとも下端側の配線出入口5が、配線溝12の下端部12bとカバー2の長手方向の下端部22bとの間が略円形状に形成されているために、配線Xの導出入方向が様々な方位に対してなされても、配線Xにストレスが掛かることを防止することができる。   Further, since at least the wiring entrance / exit 5 on the lower end side is formed in a substantially circular shape between the lower end portion 12b of the wiring groove 12 and the lower end portion 22b in the longitudinal direction of the cover 2, the lead-out direction of the wiring X is Even if it is made with respect to various orientations, it is possible to prevent the wiring X from being stressed.

係り合い構造としては、弾性爪24がカバー2の左右の縁部2a、2bより配線溝12に向かって延びる一方、凹所124が前記配線溝12の内面における左右対応位置にあり、左右の弾性爪24が互いに相離れる方向の弾性力によって凹所124に係り合り、互いに相寄る方向の弾性変形によって凹所124との係り合いを解除するように構成しているので、左右の弾性爪24の間に配線空間Zを確保しつつ、カバー2と配線溝12との具体的な脱着構造を有効に実現することができる。   As the engagement structure, the elastic claw 24 extends from the left and right edges 2a and 2b of the cover 2 toward the wiring groove 12, while the recess 124 is located at the left and right corresponding positions on the inner surface of the wiring groove 12, so Since the claw 24 is configured to engage with the recess 124 by elastic force in a direction away from each other and to be released from engagement with the recess 124 by elastic deformation in a direction close to each other, the left and right elastic claws 24 are arranged. A specific detaching structure between the cover 2 and the wiring groove 12 can be effectively realized while securing the wiring space Z between the two.

そして、カバー2の弾性爪24を利用し、カバー2を支柱本体11に装着する前の状態で配線Xをカバー2の側縁2a、2bから側方に食み出すことを規制する規制部25を構成しているために、カバー2に配線Xを引っかけた状態のままで、配線Xがカバー2から食み出さない状態で配線溝12に取付けることができる。   Then, using the elastic claws 24 of the cover 2, a restricting portion 25 that restricts the wiring X from protruding laterally from the side edges 2 a and 2 b of the cover 2 before the cover 2 is attached to the column main body 11. Therefore, the wiring X can be attached to the wiring groove 12 in a state where the wiring X does not protrude from the cover 2 while the wiring X is hooked on the cover 2.

また、配線溝内12xにおける溝幅方向の中央部に、支柱本体11の長手方向に沿って延びる縦リブ122を形成しているので、脚支柱1の強度向上とともに、図4に想像線で示すように縦リブ122の左右に配線Xの棲み分けが可能となる。特に、縦リブ122の素材が導電性のものであれば、棲み分けされた各配線空間12xに電力線と通信線をそれぞれ通すことで、両者の電磁的な干渉を避けることにも利用できる。   Further, since the vertical rib 122 extending along the longitudinal direction of the column main body 11 is formed in the central portion of the wiring groove 12x in the groove width direction, the strength of the leg column 1 is improved and an imaginary line is shown in FIG. In this way, the wiring X can be divided between the left and right sides of the vertical rib 122. In particular, if the material of the vertical rib 122 is conductive, it can be used to avoid electromagnetic interference between the power lines and the communication lines by passing the power lines and the communication lines through the separated wiring spaces 12x.

さらに、支柱本体11の長手方向に沿った間欠位置に当該長手方向と交叉する横リブ123を設け、この横リブ123の一部を切り欠いて配線溝12の溝底123aを形成しているので、配線機能を損なうことなく、脚支柱1の更なる強度向上を図ることができる。   Further, since the lateral rib 123 intersecting with the longitudinal direction is provided at an intermittent position along the longitudinal direction of the column main body 11, a part of the lateral rib 123 is notched to form the groove bottom 123 a of the wiring groove 12. Further, the strength of the leg support 1 can be further improved without impairing the wiring function.

加えて、配線溝12およびカバー2を下に向かって先細り形状にし、装着後にカバー2を配線溝12に対して下方に微動させることによって、カバー2の側縁2a、2bと支柱本体11の対応する開口縁11a、11bとを密着させ得るようにしているので、カバー2の装着状態で端正な外観を確保することができる。しかも、カバー2を所定取付位置よりもやや上方で配線溝12に嵌め合わせ、そこから下方にスライドさせることでカバー2の縁部2a、2bが配線溝12の開口縁12c、12dに密着するので、最初から密着状態で装着する場合に比して、装着作業やその逆の剥離作業もより一層簡単となる。   In addition, the wiring groove 12 and the cover 2 are tapered downward, and the cover 2 is finely moved downward with respect to the wiring groove 12 after mounting, whereby the correspondence between the side edges 2a and 2b of the cover 2 and the column main body 11 is achieved. Since the opening edges 11a and 11b to be adhered can be brought into close contact with each other, a neat appearance can be ensured with the cover 2 attached. In addition, the edges 2a and 2b of the cover 2 are brought into close contact with the opening edges 12c and 12d of the wiring groove 12 by fitting the cover 2 to the wiring groove 12 slightly above the predetermined mounting position and sliding the cover 2 downward therefrom. As compared with the case of mounting in the close contact state from the beginning, the mounting work and the reverse peeling work are further simplified.

とりわけ、本実施形態の脚Bにはキャスタ3がダンパ作用を営むように昇降可能に設けてあるため、配線Xを適切に誘導することでキャスタ本体31の上端部と脚支柱1の下端部1bとの間で配線Xを挟み込むおそれも有効に低減することができる。   In particular, the leg B of this embodiment is provided so that the caster 3 can move up and down so as to perform a damper action. Therefore, by appropriately guiding the wiring X, the upper end portion of the caster body 31 and the lower end portion 1b of the leg column 1 are provided. The possibility that the wiring X is sandwiched between them can be effectively reduced.

そして、上記の脚Bを4本用いて天板Aを支持することにより天板付き家具Tを構成しているので、天板付き家具Tが基本的に天板Aと脚Bのみの簡易な構造であっても配線機能を有効に付与することができる。   And since the furniture T with a top plate is comprised by supporting the top plate A using four said legs B, the furniture T with a top plate is simple only of the top plate A and the leg B fundamentally. Even if it is a structure, a wiring function can be provided effectively.

なお、各部の具体的な構成は、上述した実施形態のみに限定されるものではなく、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々変形が可能である。   The specific configuration of each part is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

例えば、図3に示したように上記実施形態ではガイド部121を傾斜して構成していたが、図13に示すように、ガイド部121zを湾曲した形状に構成し、開口端121aにおける接線方向Dがキャスタ2の首振り動作に必要な空間Yと交わらないように設定する構成が考えられる。   For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the guide portion 121 is configured to be inclined in the above embodiment. However, as shown in FIG. 13, the guide portion 121z is configured to have a curved shape, and the tangential direction at the opening end 121a. A configuration is conceivable in which D is set so as not to intersect the space Y necessary for the swing motion of the caster 2.

また、上記実施形態では、被係り合い部たる凹所124を支柱本体11の側縁11c、11dに設け、さらに係り合い部たる弾性爪24をカバー2の側縁2a、2bに設ける構成としたが、図14(a)に示すように、縦リブ122の左右両側で、かつ支柱本体11の長手方向に沿った間欠位置に被係り合い部たる凹所126を設け、さらにカバーリブ21の長手方向に沿った間欠位置に、係り合い部たる弾性爪26を設けた構成としても良い。   Moreover, in the said embodiment, it was set as the structure which provided the recessed part 124 which is a to-be-engaged part in the side edges 11c and 11d of the support | pillar main body 11, and also provided the elastic nail | claw 24 which is a to-be-engaged part in the side edges 2a and 2b of the cover 2. However, as shown in FIG. 14 (a), recesses 126 that are engaged portions are provided on the left and right sides of the vertical rib 122 and at intermittent positions along the longitudinal direction of the column main body 11, and the longitudinal direction of the cover rib 21 is further provided. It is good also as a structure which provided the elastic nail | claw 26 which is an engaging part in the intermittent position along.

また、図14(b)に示すように、縦リブ122の左右両側で、かつ支柱本体11の長手方向に沿った間欠位置に被係り合い部たる弾性爪127を設け、カバーリブ31の長手方向に沿った間欠位置に係り合い部たる凹所27を設ける構成も考えられる。   Further, as shown in FIG. 14 (b), elastic claws 127 which are engaged portions are provided at the intermittent positions along the longitudinal direction of the column main body 11 on both the left and right sides of the longitudinal rib 122, and the longitudinal direction of the cover rib 31 is provided. A configuration is also conceivable in which a recess 27 that is an engaging portion is provided at an intermittent position along.

さらに、脚に配線を通さない場合には、配線出入口4、5を塞ぐ配線蓋を設ける構成があっても構わない。   Further, when the wiring is not passed through the legs, there may be a configuration in which a wiring lid for closing the wiring entrances 4 and 5 is provided.

また、上記実施形態の配線溝12は、支柱本体11のうちキャスタ取付部11bから所定距離上方へ変位した位置Qより始まって当該支柱本体11の上端部11bの位置Pにまで延びており、支柱本体11にカバー2を装着した状態で当該カバー2の上端部22a及び下端部22bと配線溝12の上端部12a及び下端部12bとの間にそれぞれ配線出入口4、5が開口するものであったが、例えば図15に示すように、支柱本体11にカバー2を装着するか否かによらず、配線溝12の下端部12bに配線出入口5が常時開口するものであってもよい。配線溝12の上端部においても同様である。   In addition, the wiring groove 12 of the above embodiment starts from a position Q of the column main body 11 that is displaced upward by a predetermined distance from the caster mounting portion 11b and extends to a position P of the upper end portion 11b of the column main body 11. With the cover 2 attached to the main body 11, the wiring entrances 4 and 5 are opened between the upper end 22 a and the lower end 22 b of the cover 2 and the upper end 12 a and the lower end 12 b of the wiring groove 12, respectively. However, for example, as shown in FIG. 15, regardless of whether or not the cover 2 is attached to the column main body 11, the wiring entrance / exit 5 may always be opened at the lower end portion 12 b of the wiring groove 12. The same applies to the upper end portion of the wiring groove 12.

さらにまた、上記実施形態の配線溝12は、支柱本体11のうちキャスタ取付部11bから所定距離上方へ変位した位置Qより始まって当該支柱本体11の上端部11bの位置Pにまで延びており、支柱本体11にカバー2を装着した状態で配線溝12の上端部12aと下端部12bにそれぞれ配線出入口4、5が鉛直方向に対して角度をもった方向に開口するものであったが、図16に示すように、配線溝12が支柱本体11の上端部11bに貫通し、支柱本体11にカバー2を装着した状態で配線溝12の上端部12aに配線出入口4が鉛直方向に開口するように構成することもできる。このようにすれば、配線Xを天板上に無理なく引き出すことが可能できるようになる。   Furthermore, the wiring groove 12 of the above-described embodiment starts from a position Q of the column body 11 displaced upward from the caster mounting portion 11b by a predetermined distance and extends to a position P of the upper end portion 11b of the column body 11. While the cover 2 is attached to the column main body 11, the wiring entrances 4 and 5 are opened at the upper end portion 12a and the lower end portion 12b of the wiring groove 12 in a direction having an angle with respect to the vertical direction. As shown in FIG. 16, the wiring groove 12 penetrates the upper end portion 11 b of the column main body 11, and the wiring inlet / outlet 4 opens in the vertical direction at the upper end portion 12 a of the wiring groove 12 with the cover 2 attached to the column main body 11. It can also be configured. If it does in this way, it will become possible to draw out wiring X on a top board now.
