Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a panel mounting angle adjustment structure in a partition panel, and more specifically, a support column is properly set up between a ceiling and a floor, and a panel is mounted between each of the set up columns. The present invention relates to a structure for adjusting a panel mounting angle in a partition panel.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, various types of partition panels have been provided, in which columns are installed between the ceiling and the floor with appropriate spacing, and panels are installed between these columns, especially with transparent glass panels. As the glass partition structure, the glass panel is fixed to the concave groove formed in the substantially central part of the inner surface of the frame framed by the left and right vertical bars, upper and lower bars, Form a glass groove in the front outer periphery of the frame consisting of a crosspiece and upper and lower crosspieces, fit a glass panel in the glass groove, and expose only the edge of the glass groove on the front and make it almost flush with the glass surface, A glass partition structure in which a large space is formed on the back surface of glass has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
[0003]
In the case where the glass panel is mounted in the groove in the substantially central portion of the inner surface of the frame body, the glass panel is mounted on the frame body that has been installed in advance, so that the fixing operation is troublesome and the gasket is fitted in the groove. Further, there is a problem in that stability is lacking because it is supported through the frame, and a step is generated between each bar of the frame and the surface of the panel, resulting in appearance problems. On the other hand, when the glass panel is attached to the outer peripheral portion of the front surface of the frame body, the step does not occur, and the appearance problem due to the step can be solved, but the glass panel is previously formed in the glass groove in the process of assembling the frame body. It is a structure where the framed panel is attached to the top rail, ground rail and stud at the installation site, and there is a problem that the cost of manufacturing and management is increased and the conveyance efficiency is lowered. Mounting the panel with a frame to the stud is a structure that is directly fixed to the stud with a joint material etc. from the front side of the panel, and there is a problem in appearance and the degree of freedom in construction such as the angle to install the panel is small there were.
[0004]
On the other hand, office buildings in recent years tend to adopt various new shapes such as a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, and a combination thereof in addition to a square in plan view. There is a demand for a partition panel that can be freely adjusted in any direction as a partition panel that divides the passage and the room into a shape along a square or the like. As such an angle adjusting means, various connecting tools having a single or a plurality of hinge portions have been conventionally proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2). The columns supporting the panels are connected to each other through the coupling tool, and each column needs to be separately fixed to the ceiling or floor surface. The partition panel to be mounted on the outer peripheral portion is premised on the provision of a strut having sufficient strength to support the panel, and in this case, it is absolutely necessary to support the glass panel with the connector having the hinge portion. Even if supported, the structure for fixing the conventional connector to the ceiling or floor becomes complicated.
