  However, in the conventional partition panel device as described above, the wiring of the electrical equipment placed on the top plate of the desk is straddled across the front and rear spaces partitioned by a plurality of partition panels arranged side by side in the left-right direction. When it is desired to pass the wiring, the wiring must be suspended to the floor surface and passed through the space formed between the floor surface and the lower end of the partition panel, and the wiring work is troublesome.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 5, a plurality of standard partition panels 50 having a fixed length L (generally 90 cm) are connected in a straight line in the left-right direction, and every other one of them is connected. By connecting the same standard partition panel 52 facing forward from the joint 51 in a T shape so that the center of the width W coincides with the joint 51, the two straight lines are continuous. The partition panels 50 and 50 and a pair of left and right partition panels 52 and 52 facing forward from both sides thereof form a U-shaped enclosure in a plan view, and the inside thereof serves as a work space 53. For example, a standard length As shown in FIG. 5, two work top plates 54 and 54 of L (generally 90 cm) are arranged along the inner side surfaces of the pair of left and right partition panels 52 and 52 facing forward. Or as shown in Fig. 6, between two pieces arranged in a straight line In some cases, it may be desired to use the layout panel 50 or 50 so that the layout can be changed.

However, in practice, in the layout shown in FIG. 6, both side end portions of the two work top plates 54, 54 arranged in a straight line in the left-right direction interfere with the left and right partition panels 52, 52 facing forward. (Refer to the broken line in FIG. 6) Such a layout change is not possible.
Such a phenomenon is caused by a connection method when connecting a plurality of partition panels in an L shape, a T shape, a cross shape, or the like. A partition panel and work top plate with dimensions are prepared, and struts with the same width as the partition panel width W are arranged at the corners of the partition panel. Has become complicated.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems of the prior art, and allows wiring and other objects to be inserted between the front and rear spaces partitioned by the partition panel while maintaining sufficient strength. Provided is a partition panel device that can be assembled easily, and a workstation device that has a partition panel device that can be easily assembled, and that can increase layout layout tolerance of a work top plate and the like. The purpose is that.

According to the present invention, the above problem is solved as follows.
