2. Description of the Related Art A conventional structure will be described by taking a leg structure of a washing machine as an example. As shown in FIG. 5, legs are attached to the bottom of the main body 1 of the washing machine at the four corners. If the installation surfaces of these four legs are not flat, the legs that do not contact the installation surface will be generated and the installation will be difficult. Rattling occurs. So 3 out of 4 legs
If there is rattling at the time of installation, use the book as the fixed leg 2 whose height cannot be adjusted and the remaining one as the adjustable leg 3 whose height can be adjusted. The legs that were not in contact with each other are in contact with each other, and all four legs are in contact with the installation surface to eliminate rattling.

Next, the usage and operation will be described. 4
When the washing machine is installed in a place where the installation surface of the book leg is not flat, the installation surface of the adjustment leg 3 is high, and as a result, one fixed leg 2
Is not in contact with the installation surface and is in a floating state, the adjusting leg 3 is formed to have a height larger than that of the fixed leg 2 when the compression spring 9 has a free height. A large load of the washing machine is applied to the leg 3, and the load of the washing machine is crushed by a static load and not crushed by an instantaneous load via the pressing member 4 protruding downward from the bottom of the main body 1. The viscoelastic substance 5 is gradually added, and as a result, the viscoelastic substance 5 is gradually crushed in the bottomed tubular body 6 while the pressing member 4 sinks into the viscoelastic substance 5. The height of the entire adjusting leg 3 is automatically lowered.

At this time, the pressing member 4 has the wide end 4 at the tip.
By using the rod-shaped member formed in a, the pressing force from the washing machine side is widely and evenly applied to the viscoelastic substance 5 through the wide portion 4a, and the viscoelastic substance 5 is uniformly crushed while Settle vertically.

Further, even if the upper surface of the viscoelastic substance 5 tries to rise by being pressed by the pressing member 4, the elastic force of the compression spring 9 is applied to the upper surface of the viscoelastic substance 5 via the pressing plate 8, Material 5 having viscoelasticity in the pressing plate 8
Since the upper surface of the washing machine is suppressed, the upper surface of the washing machine is not lifted and applied to the bottom of the washing machine.

Further, since the stopper piece 7 closes the upper opening 6a of the bottomed tubular body 6, the substance 5 having viscoelasticity is obtained.
It is possible to prevent the pressing plate 8 provided on the upper surface of the above from protruding out of the bottomed cylindrical body 6.

Since the stopper piece 7 is detachable, the viscoelastic substance 5 is injected into the bottomed cylindrical body 6 and the pressing member 4 is charged into the bottomed cylindrical body 6. Since the stopper piece 7 can be removed from the bottomed tubular body 6, it does not hinder the injection and charging.

On the other hand, even when the installation surface of the adjustment leg 3 is lower than the installation surface of the other fixed leg 2, the adjustment leg 3 has a height higher than that of the fixed leg 2 when the compression spring 9 has a free height. Since the adjusting legs 3 are formed to be large, the adjusting legs 3 do not contract as much as the installation surface is higher than the installation surfaces of the other fixed legs 2, and the four legs come into contact with the installation surfaces, thereby eliminating rattling. .

By just installing the washing machine as described above, the height can be adjusted by automatically crushing the adjusting legs 3 when the installation surface is not flat, and the subsequent use causes a momentary increase when dehydrating. Even if a force is applied to the adjusting leg 3, it is not crushed by this. In addition, the bottom of the main body 1 and the bottomed tubular body 6
Since the compression spring 9 is interposed between the upper surface of the viscoelastic substance filled in the compression spring 9 and the height of the installation surface which is different when the installation location is changed, the adjusting leg 3 is provided with the compression spring. 9
It returns to the original state by the return force of, so it can follow the height.

As described above, according to the leg structure of the present invention, firstly, even when the installation surface of the four legs is not flat when the main body is installed and the installation surface of the adjustment leg is high or low. , The load of the washing machine through the pressing member protruding downward from the bottom of the outer box is gradually added to the substance having viscoelasticity that is crushed by a static load and not crushed by an instantaneous load, and as a result, the pressing member is While being submerged in the viscoelastic substance, the viscoelastic substance is gradually crushed in the bottomed tubular body, and the height of the entire adjusting leg is automatically lowered, and the heights of the other three fixing legs are increased. With all four legs in contact with the installation surface, it can be installed without rattling. Further, even if a momentary load is applied to the adjusting leg after installation, it does not cause tilting.

Secondly, between the bottom of the main body and the upper surface of the viscoelastic substance filled in the bottomed tubular body, an elastic body is provided along the pressing member via a pressing plate disposed on the upper surface of the substance. Even if the installation surface has a different height when the installation location is changed, the adjusting leg 3 can follow the height and can be installed without rattling.

Fourthly, the bottomed tubular body has an upper surface formed in an opening and a removable stopper piece is provided at the periphery of the opening, so that a viscoelastic substance is injected into the bottomed tubular body. Also, since the pressing member can be inserted into the bottomed tubular body while the stopper piece is removed from the bottomed tubular body, it does not hinder the injection and the loading. In addition, since the stopper piece closes the peripheral edge of the upper surface opening of the bottomed tubular body after injection and charging, the pressing plate provided on the upper surface of the viscoelastic substance should not fly out of the bottomed tubular body. To prevent.

Fifth, since the bottomed cylindrical body has a lower surface made of an elastically deformable material, it absorbs and absorbs foreign matter on the installation surface, so that the entire lower surface contacts the installation surface and is stable. Can be installed in a state.

Sixth, the bottomed tubular body is made of synthetic resin,
Since the lower surface of the main body made of hard synthetic resin is integrally formed of soft synthetic resin, the structure is simple and easy to integrally mold. It is possible to obtain the effect of abutting on the surface and being able to install in a stable state.

Seventhly, the bottomed tubular body is provided with an elastic material made of a material such as rubber as a separate body on the lower surface, so that even if foreign matter is present on the installation surface, it will be deformed and absorbed. It is possible to easily obtain the effect of abutting on the installation surface and allowing stable installation.
