DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a movable partitioning device used for partitioning a room such as a banquet hall or a multipurpose hall.
In particular, it relates to a seal structure of the gap closing member.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional movable partitioning device includes a vertically movable member fitted to an upper end and a lower end of a partition main body so as to be movable in a vertical direction, and a movable member which moves left and right to a side end of the partition main body. The side moving member fitted as possible, and is slidably inserted in the left and right ends at the ends of the vertical moving member, and is slidably inserted into the upper and lower ends of the side moving member in the vertical direction. And a closed corner closing member,
When the vertical moving member and the side moving member are advanced from each end of the partition body by the driving means, the vertical moving member hits the ceiling and the floor surface, and the side moving member hits the side wall,
In addition, there is one in which a rectangular space formed at a corner between the end of the vertically moving member and the end of the side moving member is closed by a corner closing member (for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 311

In a movable partition device comprising a fitted corner closing member and capable of closing a gap between a side wall of a room to be partitioned and a ceiling or a floor, the vertical moving member and the side moving member are both A gap formed between the two moving members when the movable member advances from the end surface of the partition body extends from the end of the partition body toward the corner closing member, and slides on the outer surface of the corner closing member. Closed by the seal member

(2) In the above item (1), the side edge of the vertical moving member is aligned with the side end of the partition main body, and the upper end or lower end of the side moving member is moved most inward. Attach or approach the lower end of the upper vertical moving member or the upper end of the lower vertical moving member, and place the seal member on the side end of the partition main body, from the upper end or lower end of the partition main body to the upper end or lower end of the side moving member. Provided to reach.

(3) In the above item (1), when the upper end or lower end of the side moving member is aligned with the upper end or lower end of the partition body, and the side end of the vertical moving member is moved inward most. The seal member is provided at the upper end or lower end of the partition main body from the side end of the partition main body to the side end of the vertical moving member.

(4) In any one of the above items (1) to (3), the outer end of the partition main body is located outside the seal member, and the distal end is located on the outer surface of the side moving member or the outer surface of the vertical moving member.
