  2. Description of the Related Art Desk devices including a partition panel that is provided at a side portion or a rear portion of a desk device main body so as to be movable up and down and that is drawn upward when necessary and lowered downward when unnecessary are widely known. A desk device equipped with a partition panel is a pair of left and right panel mounting brackets that are attached to the lower surface of the top plate and project outward, a bracket that is screwed to each of the panel mounting brackets, and a guide that is fixed to each bracket. And a connecting frame that is disposed horizontally in the left-right direction and connects the guide bodies to each other. The partition panel includes a panel rail that slides on the guide body, and the partition panel moves up and down as the panel rail slides on the guide body.

  Moreover, the protrusion which accommodated the constant load spring was provided in the lower edge of the partition panel. The constant load spring is adapted to have a force that balances the weight of the partition panel. The constant load spring is configured such that the elastic steel plate is wound around the drum, and the drawer side end is attached to the connecting frame. The constant load spring generates a force to resist the elastic steel plate when it is pulled out. This force is almost constant regardless of the pulling length of the elastic steel plate.

  In the desk device provided with the partition panel described above, when the partition panel is raised and lowered, the constant load spring (drum) is also raised and lowered. Since the force which balances the weight of a partition panel acts on a constant load spring, a partition panel can be raised / lowered without being conscious of the weight of a partition panel. That is, when the partition panel is lowered, the elastic steel plate is pulled out from the drum in the constant load spring, and the panel is supported by a force for lifting the partition panel. When the partition panel is raised, the elastic steel plate is wound around the drum. It will be responsible for part of the force required to raise the partition panel.
