Hereinafter, embodiments embodying the partition body of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, but the technical scope of the present invention is, of course, not limited to this. The detailed description of the well-known technique will be omitted. Further, in the present specification, when the partition body is referred to as an upward direction or a downward direction with respect to the partition body, it means the vertical direction when the front view of FIG. 1 is viewed.

(Embodiment)
First, the configuration of the partition body 1 according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing a partition body of the present embodiment. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing the first partition plate. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing the second partition plate. FIG. 4A is an explanatory diagram showing the entire locking plate. FIG. 4B is an explanatory view showing the rear end portion of the locking plate.

As shown in FIG. 1, the partition body 1 is composed of a plurality of (10 in this embodiment) first partition plate 10, two second partition plates 20, and two locking plates 30. The partition body 1 is configured by cross-connecting the first partition plate 10 and the second partition plate 20 at right angles to each other. The first partition plate 10, the second partition plate 20, and the locking plate 30 are strip-shaped members, and are thin plates having a closed cell structure obtained by extruding and foaming polypropylene.

In the present embodiment, the above-mentioned material is used, but a resin corrugated cardboard structure plate called plastic corrugated cardboard may be used, corrugated cardboard may be used, a flexible thin plate may be used, or a mixture thereof may be used.

As shown in FIG. 2, the first partition plate 10 has tongue piece-shaped engaging pieces 11 and 11 extendingly formed at both tip portions.

As shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of (10 in this embodiment) vertical slits 21 for insertion through which the engaging piece 11 is inserted are formed on the plate surface of the second partition plate 20. The vertical slit 21 for insertion is a vertically long slit.
The vertical slit 21 for insertion may be any one as long as the engaging piece 11 can be inserted, but it is desirable that the clearance is as small as possible.

In the engaging piece 11, a locking vertical slit 12 is formed in a portion on the outer side of the second partition plate 20 in a state where the engaging piece 11 is inserted into the insertion vertical slit 21. The locking vertical slit 12 is a vertically long slit.

The locking plate 30 is inserted through the locking vertical slits 12, 12 ... In a hollow shape to prevent the engaging piece 11 from coming off from the second partition plate 20.

As shown in FIG. 4A, the locking plate 30 is a thin plate having a substantially rectangular shape and flexibility.
The upper edge of the locking plate 30 (hereinafter referred to as “first upper edge 31”) extends substantially horizontally from the tip portion 30a toward the rear end portion 30b, and as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the rear end. The portion 30b has a first upper edge convex portion 32 formed in a protruding shape upward and an upper edge of a locking vertical slit 12 on the rear end side of the first upper edge convex portion 32 (hereinafter, “the first”. A notch (hereinafter referred to as “first upper edge notch 33”) into which the (2 upper edge 121”) is fitted is provided.

Further, on the tip end side of the first upper edge convex portion 32 of the first upper edge 31, the rear end portion 30b of the locking plate 30 is provided so as to be easily pressed downward on the rear end side (in the direction of arrow F in the figure). It has a dent 34.

The lower edge 35 facing the first upper edge 31 is in a position where the locking plate 30 can be inserted sequentially into the locking vertical slit 12 until the second upper edge 121 is fitted into the first upper edge notch 33. Is formed in. That is, the lower edge 35 facing the first upper edge 31 is formed at the same or shorter distance from the first upper edge 31 as the vertical length of the locking vertical slit 12.

However, it means that the distance between the first upper edge 31 and the lower edge 35 is the same as or shorter than the vertical length of the locking vertical slit 12 at any position of the locking plate 30. It's not a thing. Since the first partition plate 10 and the locking plate 30 have flexibility, the distance between the first upper edge 31 and the lower edge 35 is slightly longer than the vertical length of the locking vertical slit 12. However, it may be possible to insert it.

Further, the lower edge 35 is formed at a position that does not hinder the first upper edge notch 33 when the recess 34 is pressed and the first upper edge notch 33 is separated from the second upper edge 121. When the recess 34 is pressed, the first upper edge notch 33 is separated from the second upper edge 121, and the locking plate 30 can be pulled out from the locking vertical slit 12.

Further, when the lower edge 35 is to be made as described above, the lower edge 35 facing the first upper edge convex portion 32 and the first upper edge notch 33 is inevitably a concave portion that is recessed upward. In the form, the hypotenuse 36 facing downward is provided on the rear end side of the recess. As a result, when the second upper edge 121 is fitted into the first upper edge notch 33, the rear end portion 30b of the locking plate 30 is supported, and the rear end portion 30b of the locking plate 30 moves downward. It's getting harder.

In the present embodiment, the locking plate 30 has such a shape, but it may have a shape like the locking plate 40 shown in FIG. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing a modified example of the locking plate. The locking plate 40 is also inserted through the locking vertical slits 12, 12 ... In a hollow shape to prevent the engaging piece 11 from coming off from the second partition plate 20.

As shown in FIG. 5, the locking plate 40 is a thin plate having a substantially rectangular shape and flexibility.
The upper edge (first upper edge 41) of the locking plate 40 extends substantially horizontally from the tip portion 40a toward the rear end portion 40b, and the rear end portion 40b faces upward like the locking plate 30. A notch (2nd upper edge 121) into which the upper edge (second upper edge 121) of the locking vertical slit 12 is fitted into the rear end side of the first upper edge convex portion 32 formed in a protruding shape and the first upper edge convex portion 32. A first upper edge notch 33) is provided.

The lower edge 45 facing the first upper edge 41 is in a position where the locking plate 40 can be inserted sequentially into the locking vertical slit 12 until the second upper edge 121 is fitted into the first upper edge notch 33. Is formed in.

The locking plate 40 does not have a recess 34 for pressing the rear end portion 40b of the locking plate 40 downward on the rear end side. Further, even if the position corresponding to the recess 34 is pressed downward on the rear end side, when the first upper edge notch 33 tries to separate from the second upper edge 121, the lower edge 35 does not hinder it. Not formed. Therefore, the locking plate 40 cannot be attached or detached.

Further, the shape may be similar to that of the locking plate 50 shown in FIG. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing a modified example of the locking plate.
The first upper edge 51 of the locking plate 50 extends from the tip portion 50a toward the rear end portion 50b, although it is substantially horizontal, but is slightly inclined upward, and the locking plate 30 is attached to the rear end portion 50b. The same first upper edge convex portion 32 and the first upper edge notch 33 are provided. Therefore, the clearance between the locking plate 50 on the tip portion 50a side and the locking vertical slit 12 is larger than that of the locking plate 30.

Further, on the tip end side of the first upper edge convex portion 32 of the first upper edge 51, there is a recess 34 formed for pressing the rear end portion 50b of the locking plate 50 downward on the rear end side. , The same as the locking plate 30.

The lower edge 55 facing the first upper edge 51 is in a position where the locking plate 50 can be inserted sequentially into the locking vertical slit 12 until the second upper edge 121 is fitted into the first upper edge notch 33. Is formed in. Further, the lower edge 55 extends substantially horizontally from the tip portion 50a toward the rear end portion 50b, and extends slightly diagonally upward from the bending point 57 slightly rearward of the intermediate point.

As a result, when the locking plate 50 is to be inserted into the locking vertical slit 12, if the tip portion 50a is lifted upward, the first upper edge convex portion 32 moves downward, making it easier to insert the locking plate 50. After inserting to the innermost part, when the tip portion 50a is lowered, the first upper edge convex portion 32 moves upward, and the second upper edge 121 fits into the first upper edge notch 33. Comparing the tip portion 50a side and the rear end portion 50b side with the folding point 57 as a fulcrum, this state is maintained because the tip portion 50a side is heavier. When pulling out the locking plate 50, the operator lifts the tip portion 50a upward and presses the recess 34 with a finger in the same manner as the locking plate 30, so that the locking plate 50 can be removed from the locking vertical slit 12. Can be extracted.

According to the configuration of the partition body 1, the assembly time can be significantly shortened. This effect is particularly effective when the number of first partition plates 10 is large, such as the partition body 1. Further, the retaining force for preventing the first partition plate 10 from coming off from the second partition plate 20 is strong.
Further, it has excellent shape retention, and even if it is folded so as to be flatly crushed in a direction in which the outermost diagonal of the partition body 1 approaches, the first partition plate 10 and the second partition plate 20 do not come off.
Further, when the locking plate 30 and the locking plate 50 are adopted, disassembly is easy.

The above-mentioned contents are merely related to one embodiment of the present invention, and do not mean that the present invention is limited to the above-mentioned contents.
For example, the partition may be bottomed. Further, a part of the bottom plate may be folded up to serve as a second partition plate.
