DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The conference table according to an embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is composed of one fixed base table (1) and two movable tables (2).
[0010]
The base table (1) is provided with two columnar fixed legs (3) (see FIGS. 2 and 5), and a top plate (4) is attached to the base table (1). The planar shape is almost a quadrangle, and one side (the right side in FIG. 1) (4a) forms a large convex arc.
[0011]
Two movable tables (2) are arranged adjacent to one side (4a) of the base table (1). The top plate (5) of both movable tables (2) has a rectangular shape, and the short side (5a) on the base table side is half the length of one side (4a) of the base table (1). In length, it forms a concave arc with the same curvature as one side (4a).
[0012]
The long side (5b) facing the top plate (5) of both movable tables (2) is a straight side, but has a relatively long recess (6) in the middle. When these long sides (5b) are brought into contact with each other, a gap (7) through which a stand column of a projector such as a projector passes is formed.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 2, both movable tables (2) have legs (9) with casters (8) extending from both short sides of the top plate (5) to the floor surface.
[0014]
Similarly, as shown in FIG. 2, the movable table (2) includes a wiring duct (10) that also serves as a curtain plate, below the long side (5b) of the top plate (5). A plurality of wiring boxes (11) provided with outlets, for example, are provided on the top plate portion above the wiring duct (10) so that each seated person can use information devices such as personal computers. ing.
From the vicinity of the end of the wiring duct (10) near the base table (1), a flexible cable duct (12) hangs down and reaches the floor near the outer end of the movable table (2).
[0015]
The base table (1) is also provided with a wiring duct (13) below the top plate (4) near one side (5a) on both movable tables (5). A plurality of wiring boxes (14) equipped with outlets, for example, are provided on the top plate portion above the wiring duct (13), so that information devices such as personal computers can be used.
[0016]
A flexible cable duct (15) hangs down from the vicinity of the end of the wiring duct (13) and reaches the floor surface.
[0017]
As shown in FIG. 1, the outer ends of the short sides (5a) of both movable tables (2) are pivotally attached by joints (16) to both outer ends of one side (4a) of the base table (1). Has been. Details of the joint (16) are shown enlarged in FIGS.
[0018]
The joint (16) is provided on a pivot support member (17) fixed to the bottom surface of one side (4a) of the top plate (4) of the base table (1) by three wood screws (18). The bottomed tube portion (20) projecting from the corner of the top plate (4) to the lower end of the short side (5a) of the top plate (5) of the movable table (2) and open upward In addition, a rotary shaft (19) suspended from a rotary shaft mounting plate (22) fixed by a bolt (23) on the lower surface of the corner of the top plate (5) is rotatably accommodated. .
[0019]
The lower end portion of the rotating shaft (19) is secured to the bottomed cylindrical portion (20) by a bolt (23).
[0020]
Since the conference table of the present invention is configured as described above, as shown in FIG. 1, even when both movable tables (2) are closed with their opposing long sides (5b) in contact with each other, By passing a support column such as a projector through the gap (7), it can be moved to a desired position along the gap (7).
[0021]
Depending on the request of the presentation, both movable tables (2) can be opened at an arbitrary angle as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 1, and a projector (24) is arranged in the middle as shown in FIG. The image can be projected on the screen (25).
[0022]
【The invention's effect】
According to the first aspect of the present invention, by closing the two movable tables in response to various presentation scenes, the seated persons can be brought close to each other. By opening, you can view presentations using images in a comfortable posture. Furthermore, since the movable table is pivotally attached to the base table, setting of mutual arrangement is very easy.
[0023]
According to the second aspect of the present invention, when the movable table is rotated, the top plate of the movable table abuts against the top plate of the base table, the opening and closing angle is not limited, and the structure is simple and the operation is performed. A reliable structure can be obtained.
[0024]
According to the third aspect of the present invention, the seated person can wire the information device such as a personal computer freely so that it can be used during the meeting, and the flexible cable duct does not prevent the movable table from being opened and closed.
[0025]
According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the projector can be arranged in the center even when the movable table is closed.
