By connecting a frame (not shown) in which the panel 5 is detachably attached to the front and rear surfaces, the self-standing stability of the partitioning device is improved.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, where one side edge of the desk top plate 6 is open away from the partition panel 1, a leg 14 also serving as a stabilizer is provided with a frame body. It is preferable that the mounting member 17 be detachably mounted via the mounting bracket 17 so as to protrude from the second column portion 3 at a substantially right angle.

The tabletops mounted on the front and rear surfaces of the partition panel 1 are arranged side by side as shown in FIGS. In addition to the usual desk top plate 6 having a rectangular shape in a plan view, there is a corner desk top plate 7 arranged at a corner portion of the partition panel 1 and the like. A generally triangular bracket 10 in a side view for supporting the left and right sides of the lower surface of the desk top plate 6 and the corner top plate 7 is provided with a plurality of upper and lower locking claws 9 protruding from the rear end thereof. The partitioning panel 1 is made to protrude forward or rearward from the partition panel 1 by being engaged with locking holes 8 formed at regular intervals in the front-rear face corners of the support column 3 in the vertical direction.

As described above, when the table top plate 6 and the corner table top plate 7 are mounted on the front surface of the partition panel 1, the front surface of the partition panel 1 and the rear edges of the table top plate 6 and the corner table top plate 7 are connected. A gap having a predetermined dimension (H1) is formed between the gaps (see FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 6). Then, a long cover 20 made of synthetic resin is detachably attached to the desk top plate 6 and the corner desk top plate 7 via the support 21 so as to close the gap. The following description will be made using the tabletop 6 as a representative example. The cover body 20 is shown in FIG. 5, FIG.
As shown in (b), the hard top plate 22 and the soft cover piece are formed integrally by extrusion molding. For example, the top plate 22 is made of an ABS resin material.
The cover piece 23 uses a thermoplastic resin such as a styrene-based elastomer.

A pair of front and rear engaging legs 24, 24 as engaging portions are integrally formed on the top plate portion 22 of the cover body 20 so as to protrude downward, and the length of the engaging feet 24 is equal to that of the cover body. It is a ridge that is the same as the length. Each engagement foot 24, 24
An outwardly extending claw portion 24a is formed at the lower end of. The cover piece 23 is formed in a substantially plate shape, and its base end projects horizontally so as to be substantially flush with the upper surface of the top plate portion 22.

A support 21 for supporting the cover 20 is made of a metal plate, and the substrate 21a is fixed to the lower surface of the tabletop plate 6 with screws 25. A pair of front and rear mounting portions 26, 26 formed to be bent upward from both left and right sides of the board 21a, surround the pair of engaging feet 24, 24 from the outside and move the tabletop 6 in the front-rear direction (position shift). ). Therefore, the pair of front and rear engagement feet 2 of the cover body 20
When the cover 4 is pushed into the space between the front and rear mounting portions 26 of the support body 21 from above, the bending between the front and rear engagement feet 24 and 24 due to the bending of the synthetic resin material itself of the cover body 20. Is temporarily narrowed, and both claw portions 24a, 24a are
6 can be mounted in a state in which it is difficult to come out upward below the engaging claw portion.

When the dimension between the outer sides of the front and rear mounting portions 26, 26 is set to be substantially equal to the dimension H1 of the gap, the dimension H2 from the outer edge to the inner edge of each mounting portion 26 is determined. While being set to be equal, a half position of the width of the cover body 20 is defined as a center position in the front-rear direction, and the engaging feet 24, 24
Are set so that the dimensions up to the outer edge of are equal. Thereby, when the cover body 20 is mounted on the support body 21 with its front and rear directions reversed, that is, the top plate portion 22 approaches the front surface of the panel 5 and the free edge of the cover piece 23 is 7A, and the free edge of the cover piece 23 faces the front surface of the panel 5 and the top plate 22
Is approaching (adjacent to) the rear edge of the tabletop 6 (FIG. 7B)
Also, when the mounting posture of the cover body 20 is switched, the mounting position of the support body 21 is not changed.
In addition, the cover body 20 can be mounted without shifting in the front-rear direction of the gap.

A clamp is provided on the rear edge of the desk top plate 6 to prevent a stand for lighting equipment or a partition plate standing upright from the top surface of the desk top plate 6 to extend in the front-rear direction. When an article is mounted on the rear edge of the tabletop 6 such that it is fixed on the rear edge side of the tabletop 6 so as to straddle the lower surface and the upper surface of the tabletop 6, as described above, If the mounting posture of the cover body is adopted such that the free edge is directed to the rear edge of the tabletop 6, the free end of the flexible cover piece 23 does not interfere with the article, and substantially the entire length of the gap Can be closed almost uniformly. Further, the wiring cord can be pulled out from the side near the rear edge of the tabletop 6.

Contrary to the above, the cover body is so arranged that the top plate portion 23 is adjacent to the rear edge of the desk top plate 6 and the upper surface of the top plate portion 23 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the desk top plate 6. When the device 20 is mounted, the depth of the work surface of the desk top plate 6 is increased by the width of the top plate portion 23. As shown in FIG. 7, when the width H3 of the top plate 22 is set to be larger than the width H4 of the cover piece 23, the increase in the depth of the work surface of the desk top is easily increased. can do. If the width dimension H3 of the top plate 22 and the width dimension H4 of the cover piece 23 are set differently, the mounting posture of the cover body 20 can be easily confirmed.

At the place where the left or right edge of the tabletop plate 6 is visible from the side, the frame-shaped locking projection 27a of the end cap 27 as shown in FIG. The end portions of the cover body 20 are closed by the end caps 27 by fitting the legs 24, 24 inside, so that the appearance can be improved. An upwardly open gutter-like cable duct 28 is fixed to a portion near the lower surface of the desk top plate 6 with a screw or the like, so that a wiring cord for connecting to an OA device on the desk top plate 6 has a free end of the cover piece 23. When the wiring cord is inserted up and down through the edge, it is easy to receive and store the surplus part of the wiring cord without hanging down.

A cover body 20 as another embodiment shown in FIG. 8 has a top plate portion 22 made of a hard material (for example, ABS resin) integrally provided with the engagement feet 24, 24 as described above.
In contrast to this, a cover piece 29 of a soft material (for example, an olefin-based elastomer) is detachably attached,
The cover piece 29 is formed in a flat cylindrical shape, and the engagement protrusion 29a at the base end thereof is fitted into the engagement groove 30 on the top plate 22 side. Therefore, only when the cover piece 29 has been used for a long period of time or has undergone an undesired permanent deformation, only the cover piece 29 can be replaced.

A wiring cord can be inserted into a hollow portion of the frame 2 in the partition panel 1, and a wiring duct for receiving the wiring code is provided horizontally at an intermediate height position of the frame 2, A gap is formed between the upper and lower panels 5 arranged so that the cords can be pulled out from the wiring duct to the front surface or the rear surface of the partition panel 1, and a wiring drawer cover is attached so as to close the gap. May be.

It goes without saying that the cover body 20 can be arranged in the gap between the rear edge of the corner tabletop 7 and the partition panel 1 in the same manner as in each of the above embodiments. Therefore, in the present invention, the desk top plate includes the corner desk top plate 7.

[0024]

As described above in detail, the partitioning device with the desk top plate according to the first aspect of the present invention supports the desk top plate via the bracket or the leg plate on the front surface of the partition panel.
In addition, an appropriate gap is formed between the front surface of the partition panel and the rear edge of the desk top plate, and a long cover body arranged to close the gap is provided with a soft cover piece and a hard cover piece on the upper surface side. The top plate part is adjacent to the base plate and is formed longitudinally along the rear edge of the desk top plate, and the cover body is formed such that the free edge of the cover piece is either the rear edge of the desk top plate or the front surface of the partition panel. It is configured so that it can be attached to and detached from the desk top plate so that it can be abutted on either side, and can be mounted in a front-rear direction.

According to this structure, the wiring cord can be pulled out from the flexible cover piece portion of the cover body, but the wiring cord can be pulled out only by changing the mounting direction of the cover body. The drawer position can be changed very easily between the side near the partition panel and the side near the rear edge of the tabletop. Therefore, when the free end of the cover piece is arranged so as to face the rear edge of the tabletop, it does not become an obstacle even if an article such as a clamp is attached to the rear edge of the tabletop. When the top plate portion of the cover body is arranged adjacent to the rear edge, the depth dimension of the desk top plate can be easily increased, and the work surface can be increased to improve various workability. This has the effect.

The invention described in claim 2 is the first invention.
In the partitioning device with a tabletop described in (1), if the width of the cover piece in the cover is set to be different from the width of the top, the mounting posture of the cover can be easily determined. In addition, since the sum of the widths of the top plate and the cover piece is formed so as to be substantially equal to the gap size, naturally, the gap is closed even when the mounting posture of the cover body is reversed as described above. Can be.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the partitioning device with the desk top plate according to the first or second aspect, the support for detachably supporting the cover body is provided on the desk top plate. The cover has an engaging portion on the lower surface side of the top plate portion, the engaging portion engaging and disengaging from a mounting portion of the support.

By providing the engaging portion on the side of the top plate made of a hard material, the attachment / detachment point of the support provided on the side of the desk top to / from the mounting portion becomes strong, so that the cover does not come off accidentally. It works.
