BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a wiring device capable of efficiently arranging and storing outlets in an office or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art With the recent progress of office automation (OA) in offices and the like, many wirings have been routed to living spaces. Such routing of wiring tends to be exposed in a living space in an unsightly state, and is likely to cause a decrease in office functionality such as wiring crossing a passage. Therefore, in this wiring process, the wiring from the floor to the desk is led from the floor or from the wall at the side of the wall to the space under the top plate formed under the top plate such as a desk. The turned part is suitably concealed, raised up to the opening formed in the top plate located above the space under the top plate, and the end is connected to an outlet fixed in the opening, and the difference between the outlet is determined. Various OA devices such as a word processor and a personal computer are connected to the entrance and used. Examples of such outlets include an outlet in which the outlet is always fixed upward in the opening, and an outlet that is vertically rotatably mounted. In use, the outlet portion is projected upward and vertically. There is a type that is rotated about an axis and stored substantially horizontally with the top plate.

[0003]

However, in the case where the outlet is fixed upward at all times, the outlet is always exposed at a certain place, so that the space used on the top is reduced and the top is not used. There are problems such as impairing the aesthetic appearance of the device and the tendency for dust to accumulate. In addition, the rotary type is complicated in that the plug must be attached and detached in an upright state in which the outlet portion projects vertically upward, and can be used only in the upright state when inserting multiple plugs. Therefore, as in the case where the outlet is always fixed upward, there are many problems such as spoiling the appearance on the top plate. In addition, it is possible to use the outlet even in the stored state, but at that time, the conventional one has an opening shape such that the opening is completely closed by the outlet,
Since only a slight notch-shaped space is secured as a wiring insertion space, only one or two ordinary wirings can be processed, which is not suitable for OA equipment having a wiring thicker than other electric equipment.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a detachable wiring device, a part of a top plate provided with an opening window communicating with a space below the top plate, and an opening for the opening.
