  That is, the furniture with a top plate of the present invention comprises a base that can be placed on the floor, a support that stands up from the base, and a top plate that is supported by the upper end of the support. The panel is placed on one end side crossing the one end surface and the other end surface of the panel, and one end in the width direction of the panel is closer to the center of the top plate than the one end surface of the top plate, and the other end in the width direction of the panel is It provided in the state away from the top plate center so that the said other end surface of a board might be reached.

  Since the panel is provided on the top plate in such a configuration, a part covered with the panel and a part not covered by the panel are formed on one end side of the top plate, and it has a feeling of openness to some extent. A blindfold function that hides the line of sight can be exhibited to create a suitable shielding property such as a feeling of hiding or feeling of being obscured. In addition, materials, samples, tablet terminals, etc. can be placed on the top board. For example, in a region covered with a panel, a video call by a phone or a tablet terminal is performed. Can exchange opinions and exchange information smoothly. For this reason, by installing such furniture with a top panel, for example, in a place slightly away from the office space, an informal place that allows simple work and allows easy communication without worrying about the surrounding people by the panel. Can be produced.

  In order to further improve the shielding property and to make it possible to construct a combined furniture having a large shielding area when a plurality of such furniture with a top plate are arranged side by side or opposed to each other, the one end of the top plate is counter-used. Preferably, the other end in the width direction of the panel protrudes outward from the other end surface of the top plate.

  In particular, in order to realize a state in which no gap is generated between adjacent panels and between top panels when a plurality of panels are arranged side by side, the width dimension of the top panel and the width dimension of the panels are substantially equal. It is preferable that it is set.

  Furthermore, when the same type of combined furniture is faced and placed opposite to each other, the end surfaces of the top plates are aligned and in order not to create a gap between the panels, It is preferable that the center in the width direction is configured to be shifted by a half pitch.

  In order to enhance the feeling of blockage and feeling of bulk while providing a certain degree of opening feeling, the panel further includes a side plate portion protruding along the other end surface of the top plate at the other widthwise end portion of the panel. It is preferable that it is L-shaped in a plan view.

  Also, in order to be able to maintain the same line of sight as a worker passing nearby without having to sit or stand up one by one, the height of the top surface should be such that a high table used in a standing posture is constructed. It is preferable that it is set.

  In order to develop various types of spaces in which various types of communication can be easily performed, it is preferable that the furniture system is configured by combining the above furniture with a top plate as a unit unit.

  Since this invention is the structure demonstrated above, the furniture with a top plate and the furniture system suitable for creating the informal field which can aim at communication easily can be provided.

In addition, illustration of the tablet stunt 6 is abbreviate | omitted in FIGS.

  Since the furniture 1 with a top plate as described above is a relatively compact module, it can be installed on the flow line connected to the office space 7 and can be easily installed in a corner of a room or a gap between other furniture. The layout can be easily changed and can always be installed in the optimum place. In addition to accessing and talking as indicated by the arrow from the side of the worker shown in FIG. 1 (the area not covered by the panel 1), as shown in FIG. It is possible to create an informal place, such as by performing a simple exchange of information between the two rather than using one-way information exchange using e-mail or the like. Furthermore, the most important point for awareness and ideas is the contact between people through such communication. However, as mentioned above, samples and materials such as products can be placed on the top 4. And by allowing the information and samples to be touched naturally in the area cut out by the panel 5, it is possible to further induce awareness and ideas. In addition, by installing furniture with a top board 1 in multiple places, instead of a large attractive force like a general refresh space, a small attractive force by a compact module is scattered to activate communication, so that awareness and ideas A connected scene can be provided more efficiently. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 8, a plurality of furnitures 1 with a top plate are provided by bringing the end surfaces 42a and 42b in the width direction of the top plates 4 and 4 and the end portions 50a and 50b in the width direction of the panels 5 and 5 into contact with each other. As a furniture system 101 that is used as a side-by-side furniture system 100 or has the end portions 50a and 50a in the width direction of the panels 5 and 5 in contact with each other, with the furniture 1 with the top plate arranged oppositely as shown in FIG. It can also be used to easily form various spaces for easy communication. In addition, in the furniture system 101 shown in FIG. 9, the furniture 1 with a top plate arrange | positioned in the paper back | inner side is shaded.

  As described above, the furniture 1 with the top plate of the present embodiment is supported by the base 2 that can be placed on the floor, the support 3 that rises from the base 2, and the upper end of the support 3. The panel 5 is provided on the side of the counter-use end 41b as one end intersecting the one end surface 42a and the other end surface 42b of the top plate 4, and the width direction one end 50a of the panel 5 is connected to the top plate 4 The width direction of the top plate 4 is closer to the center 4C1 side in the width direction of the top plate 4 than the one end surface 42a, and the other end portion 50b in the width direction of the panel 5 reaches the other end surface 42b of the top plate 4. It is configured to be provided in a state away from the center 4C1.

  Since the panel 5 is provided on the top plate 4 with such a configuration, a portion covered by the panel 5 and a portion not covered by the panel 5 are formed on the counter-use end 41b side of the top plate 4, and a certain degree of opening is achieved. A blinding function for hiding the eyes of others while having a feeling can be exhibited to create a shielding property such as an appropriate feeling of hiding or feeling of being obscured. In addition, materials, samples, tablet terminals T, and the like can be placed on the top plate 4. For example, in a region covered with the panel 5, a video call by the telephone or the tablet terminal T can be performed in a region not covered with the panel 5. Can smoothly exchange opinions and information with the workers who stopped by. Therefore, by installing such furniture with a top board 1 in a place slightly away from the office space 7, for example, informal operation can be performed easily without worrying about the surrounding people by using the panel 5 while performing simple work. Can create a perfect place.

  Moreover, since it comprised so that the other end part 50b of the width direction of the said panel 5 might protrude outward from the said other end surface 42b of the said top plate 4, while being able to improve a shielding property, this If such furniture 1 with a top plate is placed side by side as shown in FIG. 8, the other end portion 50 b of the panel 5 protruding outward is disposed at a position covering the counter-use end 41 b of the adjacent top plate 4. Thus, a combination furniture having a large shielding area can be constructed. Furthermore, if such a furniture 1 with a top plate is disposed facing each other as shown in FIG. 9, the other end portion 50 b of the panel 5 protruding outward is the panel 5 of the counter-use end 41 b of the opposing top plate 4. It is possible to expand each other's shielding area by being arranged in an area that is not shielded. 8 and 9, when the other end portion 50b of the panel 5 and the counter-use end 41b of the top plate 4 adjacent to or opposite to each other are arranged to face each other, the furniture with top plates 1 and 1 can be combined. It can also play a role of guiding and positioning.

  In particular, since the width dimension L2 of the top plate 4 and the width dimension L1 of the panel 5 are set to be substantially equal to each other, when a plurality of furnitures 1 with the same type of top plate are arranged side by side, they are adjacent to each other. It is possible to realize a state in which no gap is generated between each of the panels 5 and 5 and between the top plates 4 and 4.

  In the above, since the height of the top plate surface 4a is set so that the furniture 1 with the top plate 1 of the present embodiment constitutes a high table used in a standing posture, it passes through the vicinity without being seated or standing up one by one. Can keep the same eye height as the workers who do, and can approach each other more easily.

  Furthermore, the furniture system 100 of the present invention is configured by combining a plurality of such furnitures with a top board 1 as a unit unit, and various types of spaces for easy communication can be developed. can do.

  For example, in this embodiment, the panel 5 is I-shaped in a plan view provided only on the counter-use end 41 b side of the top plate 4, but is supported by the support body 3 rising from the base 2 as shown in FIG. The first panel portion 152 of the panel 155 is placed on one end surface 42a of the top plate 4 in the width direction, and the one end portion 152a in the width direction of the first panel portion 152 is deeper than the use end 41a of the top plate 4 In the state where the width direction other end 152b of the first panel portion 152 is moved away from the center 4C2 in the depth direction of the top plate 4 so as to reach the counter-use end 41b of the top plate 4 close to the center 4C2 side in the direction. An L-shaped panel 1 in plan view provided with a second panel portion 153 as a side plate portion that protrudes along the counter-use end 41 b of the top plate 4 from the other end portion 152 b of the first panel portion 152. 5 may be used as the top plate furnished 151 having a.

  As described above, the panel 155 further includes the second panel portion 153 that protrudes from the other end surface 42b along the counter-use end 41b of the top plate 4 at the other end 152b in the width direction of the panel 155. Therefore, it is possible to enhance the feeling of blockage and feeling of bulk while providing a certain degree of openness.

  In this case, the panel 155 is constituted by a panel body (not shown) and a tensioned cloth 155A covering the surface thereof, and the corner 4B of the top plate 4 projects toward the L-shaped corner 153a. By being configured to be applied, the corner 4B of the top plate 4 presses the upholstery 155A to form an R shape around the base end 153a of the second panel portion 153, which has a design effect and a sense of unity Can be provided.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 11, an adjuster 162 as a base is attached to the four corners of the bottom plate 164d, and a shelf as a support body in which a plurality of shelf plates 164c, 164c are provided at different height positions between the side plates 164b, 164b. 164 is used to support the top plate 4 on the top plate 164a of the shelf 164, and an I-shaped panel 165 in plan view is attached to the counter-use end 41b side of the top plate 4 to constitute the furniture 161 with the top plate. Moreover, in such furniture 161 with a top plate, instead of the panel 165, an L-shaped panel 175 as shown in FIG. 12 may be attached to constitute the furniture 171 with a top plate. . Note that the positional relationship between the top plate 4 and the panel 165 in the furniture 161 with the top plate is the same as the positional relationship between the top plate 4 and the panel 5 of the furniture with the top plate 1 shown in FIG. Further, the positional relationship between the top plate 4 and the panel 175 in the furniture 171 with the top plate is the same as the positional relationship between the top plate 4 and the panel 155 of the furniture 151 with the top plate shown in FIG.

  These furniture 151, 161, 171 with a top plate may be used alone or in combination as a unit unit. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, furniture 151 with a top plate having an L-shaped panel 155 in plan view is arranged, and furniture 1 with a top plate and furniture 151 with a top plate are arranged side by side with furniture 1 with a top plate. The furniture system 200 may be configured in combination. At this time, the length of the portion of the furniture 151 with the top plate that protrudes from the other end surface 42b of the top plate 4 of the second panel portion 153 is covered with the panel 5 at the counter-use end 41b of the top plate 4 of the furniture 1 with the top plate. By matching with the length of the unfinished portion, between the top plate 4 of the furniture 151 with the top plate and the top plate 4 of the furniture 1 with the top plate, and the panel 155 of the furniture 151 with the top plate and the furniture with the top plate It is possible to prevent a gap from being generated between the first panel 5 and the first panel 5.

May be arranged in contact with each other.

  In the present embodiment, the panel region 50b disposed outward from the top plate 4 is set smaller than the panel region 50a disposed on the counter-use end 41b side of the top plate 4. The panel region 5b arranged on the outer side from the top plate 4 may be set larger than the panel region 5a arranged on the counter-use end 41b side of the four. As a result, when a plurality of pieces of furniture with the same kind of top plate are arranged side by side in a state where the panels 5 and 5 are in contact with each other, a gap is formed between the adjacent top plates 4 and 4, so if the gap is appropriately set, In order to communicate, it becomes easy to access each top plate 4, and an appropriate distance can be maintained between workers on the top plate 4.

  Or as shown in FIG. 14, the center 5C in the width direction of the panel 5 may be shifted by a half pitch with respect to the center 4C in the width direction of the top plate 4 to constitute the furniture 181 with the top plate. In the case where the furniture system 102 is configured by facing and arranging such furniture 181 with a top plate, there is no gap between the panels 5 and 5, and between the top plates 4 and 4. By forming the space, it is easy to access each top plate 4 for communication, and it is possible to maintain an appropriate distance between workers on the top plate 4. Therefore, for example, even when the tablet stand 6 as shown in FIG. 6 is attached to the furniture 181 with a top plate and the tablet terminal T is used, consideration for the adjacent worker can be reduced. In FIG. 14, the furniture 181 with a top plate arranged on the back side of the drawing is hatched. In addition, this furniture 181 with a top plate is the structure similar to the furniture 1 with a top plate shown in FIG. 2 etc. except the attachment position of the panel 5 with respect to the top plate 4. FIG.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, although the top plate 4 has cushioning properties, it is not limited to this and may be made of wood, melamine resin, or steel.
