Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a semi-open private room type partitioning device (or a partitioning device which is composed of a wall group having a height which does not reach the ceiling and which is higher than the height of a general adult.
It may be said to be a partition type semi-open type private room device).

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When partitioning a large space of a building with a group of walls to create a private room, a wall group that can reach the ceiling of the building is used to create a completely shielded private room, and a height that does not reach the ceiling. There is a case where a semi-open type private room having an open upper surface is formed by using the wall group. In any case, doors are generally installed at the doorways.

[0003]

In the case of a completely shielded type private room, it has an advantage of high soundproofness, but on the other hand, it requires a lot of time and labor for the construction, and a high ceiling space such as a gymnasium. Has the drawback that it cannot be installed.

On the other hand, in the case of the semi-open type private room, the advantages and disadvantages are opposite to those of the completely shielded type private room, the construction is easy and the cost can be suppressed, and it can be installed in a building with a high ceiling. However, there is a drawback that the sound and light blocking function is low.

An object of the present invention is to make up for a defect in a partition device which constitutes a semi-open type private room while maintaining its advantages.

[0006]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, in a partitioning device in which a space is divided into individual chambers by a wall group having a height that does not reach the ceiling, at the upper end of all or part of the wall group, An eave-shaped member that projects toward the inside of the private room surrounded by the wall group is provided so as to extend over an appropriate range along the upper end of the wall.

The invention of claim 2 is the same as that of claim 1.
The eaves-shaped member has a function of absorbing sound generated in the private room, a function of reflecting light emitted from below from the private room, or both functions.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the second aspect, the surface of the eaves member facing the individual chamber is a concave curved surface curved in a concave side cross section, and the wall of the wall to which the eaves member is attached is mounted. An illumination device for irradiating light toward the concave curved surface of the eaves-shaped member is attached to the upper portion, and further, the eaves-shaped member has a sound absorbing structure, and the concave curved surface is irradiated with the light emitted from the lamp. A reflection portion for indirect illumination that reflects toward the room is partially provided.

The partition device according to the present invention can be used for various purposes. For example, it may be installed in an office to form a private office room, installed in a medical facility such as a hospital or clinic and used as an examination room or a hospital room, or inside a large building such as a warehouse. It can be installed and used as a simple office.

When various kinds of disasters or large-scale accidents occur, they are installed in a large space such as a gymnasium or a large tent,
It can also be used as an emergency aid facility such as a simple examination room, simple hospital room, simple operation room, and simple accommodation room. Since the partition device is an assembly type, it can be easily transported and assembled.

[0011]

By the way, in the case of a semi-open type private room in which the space is simply divided by the wall, when the lighting device is used in the private room, the light diffuses upward beyond the wall, and Even if the lights are turned off in the room, it may remain bright, which may disturb the users in the adjacent private room.

However, according to the present invention, since the eaves-like member can suppress the diffusion of the light emitted from the lighting device provided in the private room, the lighting in the room is a semi-open private room. By using the device, it is possible to prevent or significantly suppress annoyance to the adjacent private room.
It is also expected that the eaves-shaped member will exert a decorative effect of accenting the private room.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, by providing the eaves member with a sound absorbing function, the partition device is a semi-open private room type partition device, but the sound generated in the room is prevented from leaking to the outside. It is possible to improve quietness in the building where the is installed. Further, when the eaves-like member is provided with a light reflecting function, it is possible to indirectly illuminate the interior of the room and soften the atmosphere in the room.

According to the third aspect, since the upper member can be used both as the sound absorbing means and the indirect lighting means, the partitioning device has both the sound absorbing function and the indirect lighting function.
There is an advantage that the structure can be simplified.

[0015]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

(1). First Embodiment (FIGS. 1 to 6) FIGS. 1 to 6 show the first embodiment. Of these, FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view seen from the outside, FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view showing the inside of the room as a whole, and FIGS. 3 and 4 are partial perspective views of the room.
5 is a partially cutaway plan view of a main part, and FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along line VI-VI of FIG.

The partition device according to the present embodiment is applied to make a space into a private room in a medical facility such as a hospital or a clinic, for example, a private room 1 having an area of about 2.5 m × 3.5 m. Thus, each private room 1 can be used for various purposes such as an examination room and a hospital room. In the present embodiment, a plurality of individual chambers 1 are connected, but it goes without saying that only a single individual chamber 1 may be used.

.. Each of the individual compartments 1 includes a front wall 2 and a back wall 3 that extend in parallel along the arrangement direction of the individual compartments 1 in a plan view, and a plurality of side walls 4 connected between the front wall 2 and the back wall 3. Is equipped with. Adjacent private rooms 1 share one side wall 4.

Each of the walls 2, 3 and 4 is provided with a plurality of panels 5 as main members, and a front wall 2 and a back wall 3 are provided with doorways, which are horizontally rotatable doors 6. Is blocked by. Reference numeral 7 is a headboard, and reference numeral 8 is a baseboard.

The door 6 includes a front wall 2 and a back wall 3.
It may be provided on only one of the above, or either or both of the entrances and exits may have an open structure without a door.

In the side wall 4, adjacent panels 5 are connected to a pillar 9, and the pillar 9 is stretched to a ceiling 10. On the other hand, the front wall 2 and the back wall 3 also have columns (vertical frames) 9, and each column 9 is attached to the panel 5.
The open type rammer portion is provided at the upper ends of the front wall 2 and the back wall 3 by projecting the upper part of the upper wall and connecting the upper ends thereof with the upper crosspiece 12.

The upper rails 13 on the front wall 2 and the back wall 3 may be fixed to the ceiling 10. Further, since the walls 2, 3, 4 are self-supporting by being connected to each other, the pillar 9 of the side wall 4 does not necessarily have to be stretched to the ceiling 10, but if it is stretched to the ceiling 10, stability is improved. Can be made.

Although not described in detail, a large number of engaging holes exposed inside the private room 1 are formed at appropriate intervals in the upper and lower sides of the column 9 of each of the walls 2, 3 and 4, and brackets attached to the engaging holes. The desk top plate 14 can be supported by 13, for example. Of course, other members such as shelves can be attached.

Further, each of the walls 2, 3 and 4 has a built-in horizontal rail 15 which is partially exposed to the inside of the private room 1 from between the vertically adjacent panels 5, and the horizontal rail 15 is fitted with a hanger. Various articles and members such as the tool 16 and the painting 17 can be attached.

On the side wall 4 to which the desk top plate 14 is attached, a wiring duct 18 extending horizontally at a height slightly higher than that of the desk top plate 14 is mounted.
A power distribution operation unit 19 such as lighting switches, a power outlet, or a telephone connector is provided.

As shown in FIG. 3, a pin-up board 20 for holding documents with a push pin and an accessory case 21a are provided on the side wall 4 above the desk top plate 14.
A hanger board 21 to which the can be detachably attached is arranged.

In the present embodiment, an example in which the private room 1 is used as an examination room is shown. Therefore, the private room 1 is provided with an examination table 22. On the side wall 4 on the side where the examination table 22 is installed, a horizontal bar 15 is used to attach a grip bar 23 for assisting the patient to wake up. Needless to say,
Inside the private room 1, various kinds of furniture, devices and equipment such as a sleeve cabinet 24 and a wagon 25 can be installed as required.

The height of each side wall 4 is, for example, about the same as or slightly higher than the height of a general adult (for example, 1.6.
The height of the front wall 2 and the back wall 3 is slightly higher than that of the side wall 4 (for example, about 2.0 to 2.4 m).

Then, an eaves-like member 26 protruding toward the inside of the individual chamber 1 is attached to the upper end of each of the side walls 4 by an appropriate means such as screwing. The eaves-shaped member 26 extends over substantially the entire length of the side wall 4 and is set so as not to protrude from the upper ends of the front wall 2 and the back wall 3.

.. The surface of the eaves-shaped member and the illumination eaves-shaped member 26 facing the inside of the private room 1 is a concave surface having an arcuate side cross section. Further, the eaves-shaped member 26 has a sound absorbing function.

As means for imparting a sound absorbing function to the eaves-shaped member 26, there are various means such as a whole structure made of a sound absorbing plate provided with a number of sound absorbing holes, or affixing or mounting a sound absorbing material on a substrate or a machine frame. A structure can be adopted. Further, the eaves-shaped member 26 does not necessarily have to be plate-shaped, and may be block-shaped, for example.

The eaves-shaped member 26 should be set so as to have a sound absorbing effect and not to give a feeling of oppression to a person. In the case of the present embodiment, for example, 30 to 100.
A dimension of about cm is assumed.

Since the eaves-like member 26 does not give a feeling of pressure to a person when the height is higher than a certain level, the overhanging dimension is increased, or the whole of the individual chamber 1 as shown by a chain double-dashed line in FIG. You may make it the structure which covers. Further, the eaves-shaped member 26 may be fixed to the side wall 4 with a screw or the like, or may be held so as not to fall down through a bracket attached to the support column 9.

A lighting device 27 is attached to the upper portion of each side wall 4. The illuminating device 27 includes a horizontally extending lamp (fluorescent lamp) 28 and a shade 29 that covers the lamp 28 from below, and is mounted by using the columns 9 of the side wall 4. Then, on the concave surface of the eaves-shaped member 26, the lamp 2
A strip-shaped reflector 30 for reflecting the light of 8 to indirectly illuminate the inside of the private room 1 is partially provided.

The reflective material 30 has an appropriate width dimension and is provided with the eaves-shaped member 2.
6 extends long in the longitudinal direction of 6, and a plurality of strips are arranged at a plurality of locations along the arcuate direction of the eaves-shaped member 26. Reflector 3
As the material of 0, various materials such as a thin stainless plate, a synthetic resin plate or a metal plate on which an aluminum layer is vapor-deposited, or a synthetic resin plate or a metal plate on which a metal foil such as an aluminum foil is stretched are selected. be able to.

As means for attaching the reflecting material 30 to the eaves-shaped member 26, adhesion with an adhesive, adhesion with an adhesive, adhesion with a double-sided tape, screwing, fixing with a magnet, fitting, hooking using hooks, etc. Various means can be adopted.

When the reflecting material 30 is excessively reflected and makes a person feel dazzling, a matte material may be used. Further, when the eaves-shaped member 26 has an appropriate light reflecting function, the reflecting material 30 is not necessarily provided. The shade 29 may be made of a semitransparent synthetic resin. In particular, it is preferable that the shade 29 arranged above the desk top plate 14 is semitransparent so that the desk can be brightly illuminated.

.. In the above configuration, even though the partition device is a semi-open private room type, a part of the sound such as a person's voice generated inside the private room 1 is absorbed by the eaves-shaped member 26, so that the sound is generated between the private rooms 1. It is possible to suppress transmission and improve quietness.
If all or part of the wall surface of the private room 1 is made of a sound absorbing panel, the quietness can be further improved.

Further, since the eaves-shaped member 26 can also be used as a reflector for indirect illumination, the inside of the private room 1 can be indirectly illuminated without complicating the structure.

The eaves-like member 26 may be formed in a flat plate shape and arranged in an inclined posture, but if it is formed in an arcuate shape as in this embodiment, the sound absorbing function is enhanced and the light of the lamp 28 is emitted. There is an advantage that the light can be reflected evenly inside the private room 1. The eaves-shaped member 26 may be formed so that the lower surface thereof has a V-shaped cross section.

Further, when the eaves-like member 26 is not provided,
When the lamp 28 is provided on the side wall 4, the light of the lamp 28 diffuses and leaks to the adjacent private room 1, which may cause the patient in the adjacent private room 1 to feel uncomfortable. By providing the eaves-shaped member 26, it is possible to suppress the leakage of the light of the lamp 28 into the room of the adjacent private room 1 to a sound range, and thus it is possible to prevent or significantly suppress the unpleasantness caused by the illumination.

By the way, in a hospital or clinic, a space may be partitioned by curtains or partitions to form a consultation space. In this case, however, the curtains and partitions have a low shielding function, which makes the patient feel uncomfortable. There is. On the other hand, when the partition device according to the present invention is used as an examination room, it is possible to contribute to protecting the privacy of the patient by enhancing the shielding property of the examination space while being a semi-open private room type that is easy to install.

As in the present embodiment, the height of the side wall 4 to which the eaves-shaped member 26 is attached is made lower than that of the front wall 2 and the back wall 3, so that the eaves-shaped member 26 is moved to the front wall 2 and the back wall 3. If it is set so as not to project more than that, it is possible to prevent light from the lighting device 27 from leaking to the outside (for example, a corridor) from the front wall 2 and the back wall 3 without making the side wall 4 unnecessarily high and costly. There are advantages.

(2). Second to Fourth Embodiments (FIGS. 7 to 9) FIGS. 7 to 9 show another example of the arrangement of the reflecting material 30. Each of these figures is a state in which the eaves-shaped member 26 is unfolded and viewed from diagonally below. Of these, in the second embodiment shown in FIG. 7, a group of strip-shaped reflecting materials 30 is shown in a state of vertical stripes. Multiple eaves are provided on the lower surface of the eaves-shaped member 26.

Further, in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 8, a group of a large number of strip-shaped reflecting materials 30 is provided on the eaves-like member 26 in an inclined posture, and further, in a fourth embodiment shown in FIG. In the embodiment, the eaves-shaped member 2 is formed by forming the group of the reflective materials 30 into a polka dot pattern.
It is provided in 6. As can be easily inferred from each of these embodiments, the shape and arrangement of the reflecting material 30 can be freely selected.

(3). Fifth Embodiment (FIG. 10) FIG. 10 shows a fifth embodiment in which members are unitized so that they can be selectively attached. In the example shown in (A), the sound absorbing material 26a and the reflecting material 30 which are formed in appropriate width and length dimensions can be selectively attached to the concave surface of the plate-shaped eave-shaped member 26. I am trying.

In this case, the sound absorbing material 26a and the reflecting material 30 may be attached to the eaves-shaped member 26 so that they can be easily removed by using screws, hook-and-loop fasteners, hooks or the like, or a double-sided tape may be used. It may be attached so that it cannot be easily removed like the adhesive used.

Although the sound absorbing material 26a and the reflecting material 30 are formed horizontally long in the drawing, they may be formed vertically long. Further, by setting the width dimension of the sound absorbing material 26a and the width dimension of the reflecting material 30 to be the same, or by setting one of the width dimensions to an integral multiple of the width dimension of the other one, the sound absorbing material 26a is set.
It is also possible to set so that the group of the reflective material 30 and the reflective material 30 fits exactly in the concave surface of the eaves-shaped member 26.

Although not shown, the eaves-shaped member 26 may be composed of a frame-shaped or lattice-shaped base and a group of a sound absorbing material and a reflecting material selectively attached to the base.

In the example shown in (B), the eave-shaped member 26 is unitized so that it can be selectively attached to the walls 2, 3, 4. Therefore, the eaves-shaped members 26 having various shapes can be attached as needed. In this case, the eaves-shaped member 26 may have only a sound absorbing function or a light reflecting function, or may have both functions.

The main body of the illuminating device 27 is provided with a claw 27a which is engaged with and disengaged from the engaging hole provided in the support column 9 (the same applies to other embodiments).

(4). Sixth Embodiment (FIG. 11) FIG. 11 shows a fifth embodiment which is another example of the illumination device 27. (A) is a side sectional view and (B) is a plan view of (A). In this embodiment, the shade 29 is hinged 31.
It can be rotated downwards depending on the type, or is detachable as shown by the chain double-dashed line.
8 can be easily replaced.

(5). Seventh to Eighth Embodiments (FIGS. 12 to 13) FIGS. 12 and 13 show another example of the illumination means. Among them, in the seventh embodiment shown in FIG. 12, a reflector 32 for reflecting the light of the lamp 28 is separately provided in addition to the eaves-shaped member 26 having a sound absorbing function, and the reflector 32 is an eaves-shaped member. In order not to impair the sound absorbing function of 26, the overhanging dimension is set to be considerably smaller than that of the eaves-like member 26.

On the other hand, in the eighth embodiment shown in FIG. 13, the reflector 30 is provided by a guide means (rail means) not shown.
Is attached to the lower surface of the eaves-shaped member 26 so as to be vertically movable, and the reflecting material 30 can be moved up and down by an operation member (not shown) extending downward from the reflecting material 30.

When the private room 1 is applied to, for example, an examination room, there are cases where it is desired to change the brightness of the room, such as illuminating brightly when examining a patient and turning off the illumination when desk work. With such a configuration, the brightness of the interior of the private room 1 can be adjusted by moving and adjusting the reflecting material 30.

(6). Ninth Embodiment (FIG. 14) The ninth embodiment shown in FIG. 14 is an example in which the private room 1 is applied to a patient's room, and in this example, the frontage of the private room 1 is narrow. Therefore, the eaves-shaped member 26 is arranged only above the bed 33. When the height of the walls 3 and 4 is considerably higher than that of the door 6, the eave-shaped members 26 may be provided on both side walls 4.

(7). Tenth Embodiment (FIG. 15) FIG. 15 shows a ninth embodiment in which the private room 1 is used as a simple operating room. In this embodiment, the two doors 6 are slidable in order to facilitate the movement of the operating table 34.

Further, by constructing the eaves-like member 26 in a continuous arc shape, it is considered that the patient is brightly illuminated by the lamp 28 while performing indirect illumination (the eaves-like member 26 in this case has a light reflecting function). Only need to be equipped). Further, the shelves 35 are attached to the walls 2, 3 and 4 and equipment and chemicals are placed thereon, and various equipment and materials are attached to the walls 2, 3 and 4.
The devices 36 are directly attached.

(8). Others The present invention can be embodied in various ways other than the above embodiment. For example, an eaves-shaped member may be provided on all the walls. Further, the eaves-shaped member can be provided only for the interior design.
