The present invention relates to a wiring cord hole cap.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An example of this type of cap for a wiring cord hole is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. Sho 62-6813. The cap disclosed in the above publication is a computer installation room or the like in a building, in which a computer code is led out from below the floor surface through a hole previously formed at the time of building to insert the code into the floor surface of the room. When the wiring cord is not inserted into the cord insertion hole, to prevent the appearance from being impaired, to close such a cord insertion hole, and to allow easy removal when necessary It is provided as a detachable part that fits. It is also well known that the present invention can be applied to a cord insertion hole formed in a top plate or a side plate of a desk for the same purpose. This known wiring cord hole cap includes a cylindrical holding case fitted and held in the code insertion hole, a cap body including a main cap and a sub-cap fitted into the holding case from above, and the sub-cap is a main cap. It is formed as a separate component that can be removed from the cap, and has a structure in which a cord insertion hole is formed in the cap body when it is extracted, so that a wiring cord can be inserted from below.

Further, as another known example of a cap, a cap body is formed into a main cap and a sub cap in the same manner as in the above example, and the sub cap is partially connected to the main cap and manufactured, and is bent at the time of use. In some cases, the cord insertion hole is obtained by separating or separating.

[0004]

However, in the above-described conventional cap for a wiring cord insertion hole, in the former example, the cap fitted into the code insertion hole formed on the floor surface or the top plate or the side surface of the desk. To get the cord insertion hole
Once the sub-cap is removed from the main cap, a procedure is needed to secure the cord insertion hole in the cap body by inserting the sub-cap in the reverse direction on the lower surface of the main cap, and at the same time prevent the sub-cap from being lost. When processing many caps of this type on the floor, etc., it is necessary to repeat the reverse insertion of such sub caps for each cap, impairing workability and reducing Above, there was another problem that lacked the convenience of handling.

[0005] On the other hand, in the case of the conventional cap of the bending or separation type, the bent portion hinders the insertion of the cord. In the separation type, the storage of the separated sub-cap is impossible, so that the code insertion hole on the top plate surface is formed. When it becomes unnecessary and closes, the loss of the subcap makes it impossible to close,
After all, all caps have to be replaced, which has the disadvantage of economics. Therefore, in view of the above-described conventional problems, the object of the present invention is to provide a wiring cord insertion hole with improved simplicity of operation so as to contribute to improving the efficiency of wiring work at a code wiring site. No cap is provided.
