[0003] Such a conventional panel with a skin material has a structure in which a skin material such as a colored cloth is integrally fixed to the surface of a panel body in which a plate material is surrounded by a frame by gluing or the like.
Such a panel with a skin material is fastened to a panel support attached to a table top, legs or the like with a fastener such as a set screw.

[0004]

However, in the prior art described above, since the surface of the panel is fastened to the table by fastening, the skin material of the panel is inserted by a fastener or the like, pressed or rubbed. There is a problem that it is easily damaged. In addition, in many cases, it takes time and effort to adjust the mounting height, and further, fasteners and the like protrude from the surface of the table, which sometimes causes a support operation on the table.

In the above-mentioned conventional structure of a panel with a skin material, since the skin material is integrally fixed to the panel body, it is necessary to replace the skin material with respect to dirt or discoloration on the panel surface. In this case, it is necessary to perform a large-scale replacement work or replace each plate, and if this is troublesome, the entire panel is replaced. The same applies to the case where the color or pattern of the skin material is changed in accordance with a change in taste, a change in office layout, a change in the lighting state when moving, or the like.

In view of the above, the inventors can easily attach and detach the skin material to and from the panel body, thereby improving the convenience in various uses and cleaning, and also facilitates the separation at the time of disposal. We are developing panels with skin materials that can be used in Japan.

However, when such a panel with a skin material is attached to and detached from a table, the skin material is easily damaged by the above-described conventional mounting structure in which the panel surface is simply fastened, and convenience cannot be exhibited. In addition, adjusting the height of the panel body is inconvenient, and the mounting position is changed by adjusting the height, so that holes for inserting fasteners into the skin material at the original mounting position are exposed, and the appearance is reduced. There are also problems such as doing.

In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention can maintain the skin material soundly when attaching and detaching a panel with a skin material to a table and other fixtures, changing the height, and perform operations such as attaching and detaching and adjusting the height. It is possible to apply a panel with a structure that can be easily performed, work can be performed on the table without support without mounting tools etc. protruding from the table surface, and the skin material can be easily attached to and detached from the panel body.
