[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for engaging a locking member with a rail provided on a wall in a lateral direction to lock and hold an object to be locked on the wall surface via the locking member. The present invention relates to a wall locking device, and more particularly, to a wall locking device which is very useful when applied to a panel wall formed by inserting a plurality of panel connecting rails in a lateral direction and attaching a panel between the rails.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a panel wall in which a plurality of rails for panel connection are mounted on a wall in a horizontal direction and panels are mounted between the rails, and a joining structure for joining the upper and lower panels and boards. Various proposals have been made (for example, JP-A-6-257237, JP-A-11-7).
No. 1844).

[0003] On the other hand, various locking objects are provided on the wall surface by using locking metal fittings provided with locking grooves that open in the indoor direction in the connecting rails and having engaging portions that engage with the locking grooves. For example, there has been provided a device in which a hook, a hanger, an accessory placing shelf and the like are locked and held.

FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of a conventional engagement form of the connecting rail and the locking metal.
Is a connecting rail for connecting the upper and lower panels P1 and P2, and is fixed to the wall W. The connecting rail 21 is provided with a locking groove 22 that opens in the indoor direction.

Reference numeral 25 denotes a locking fitting having an engaging portion 27 at the upper end portion of the main body portion 26 for engaging with the locking groove 22 and a contact portion 28 at the lower end portion for contacting the panel wall surface Wa. In addition, for example, a locked object K such as a mounting shelf is fixed to the locking metal 25, and the locked object K is locked and held on the panel wall surface.

The engaging groove 22 is formed to be curved so as to extend obliquely upward.
It is curved and protrudes so as to correspond to the shape of FIG. When the locked object K is locked and held on the panel wall surface Wa, the front side of the locked object K is lifted upward to make the engaging portion 27 face the locking groove 22, and the locked object K is moved. The whole object to be locked is made to approach the wall surface in the direction F2 while rotating in the direction of arrow F1, whereby the engaging portion 27 is inserted into the locking groove 22, and the contact portion 28 is inserted into the panel wall surface Wa. Abut.

[0007]

However, in the conventional wall locking device, as is apparent from FIG. 8, when the locked member K is mounted on the panel wall surface Wa, the locked object K is fixed. Larger side (approx. 60 degrees from panel wall Wa)
After being lifted, it is pushed in the direction of the wall surface while rotating, so when attaching the locking metal fitting 25 to the connection rail 21 at a relatively high position on the panel wall surface Wa, the back does not reach, and each time a stepladder etc. There were inconveniences such as necessity.
