  However, in order to support the panel via the panel support device as in the configuration described in Patent Document 1 and use it as a screen that divides the space above the top plate into a plurality of spaces, an adjustment screw is provided from below the panel support device. It is necessary to attach and apply a tightening force to the panel support device. It may be troublesome to perform such an installation operation of the adjusting screw below the top plate because some people need to squat down. In addition, since the adjustment screw is exposed below the top plate, it does not look good, and in some cases, it may hinder the storage of the leg of the seated person below the top plate.

  Further, in the screen having the configuration described in Patent Document 2, since the base body is erected from the floor so as to support the screen body in a self-supporting manner, the space above the top plate is partitioned by such a screen. In this case, the base portion is located in the space below the top plate. Therefore, the lower limbs of the seated person who sits on the furniture with the top board to use the furniture with the top board may touch the base portion in such a configuration. That is, there may be a problem that the base portion interferes when the lower limb of the seated person who sits on the furniture with the top plate is stored in the space below the top plate.

  The present invention is configured to solve the problems described above.

  That is, the screen according to the present invention includes a screen panel that defines a space above the top plate of the furniture with the top plate, a screen base that supports the screen panel, and an attachment member that is attached to the lower surface of the top plate of the furniture with the top plate. A mounting auxiliary member interlocking with the attachment member, and applying a tightening force to the attachment member from above the screen base via the attachment auxiliary member at a position outside the outer surface of the screen panel. And tightening means for urging the screen base downward.

  According to this structure, it is only necessary to urge and fix the attachment member upward and the screen base downward by the fastening means from above the screen base at a position outside the outer surface of the screen panel. Since the screen can be fixed to the furniture with the top plate, it is possible to easily attach the screen as compared with the aspect in which the tightening force is applied below the top plate as in the configuration described in Patent Document 1. And since it is not necessary to arrange | position the member which supports a screen below a top plate like the structure of patent document 2, generation | occurrence | production of the malfunction that the space under a top plate is obstruct | occluded can be suppressed. Furthermore, since it is possible to operate the fastening means while the screen panel is supported on the screen base, the screen base supporting the screen panel is temporarily placed on the top board, and the space on the top board is After confirming the situation and determining the mounting position, the screen can be installed by operating the fastening means. In addition, since the operation of the fastening means can be performed while the screen panel is supported by the screen base, the operation for releasing the state in which the attachment member is urged upward with respect to the fastening means is performed. It is also possible to change the installation position of the screen by moving the screen as it is along the edge of the top plate after the screen panel is supported on the screen base. In the present invention, the “space above the top plate” is a concept including a work space on the plate surface of the top plate.

  In particular, the auxiliary mounting member has an upper surface portion that forms a plate shape along the upper surface of the top plate and a hanging portion that hangs down from one end edge of the upper surface portion, and connects the lower end of the hanging portion and the attachment member. If the mounting auxiliary member and the attachment member integrally form a U-shaped screen mounting member that opens toward the edge of the side view top plate, a metal plate is used. The attachment member and the mounting auxiliary member can be easily formed by forming into a U-shape by sheet metal processing etc., and the top plate of different thickness is also provided between the attachment member and the upper surface portion of the mounting auxiliary member. This can be easily handled by preparing a plurality of the screen mounting members having different separation distances.

  Further, the tightening means is inserted through the screw insertion hole, a screw insertion hole provided in at least the screen base, a female screw hole provided by overlapping the screw insertion hole on the upper surface portion of the attachment auxiliary member, and the screw insertion hole. If the male screw member is screwed into the female screw hole, the attachment can be performed by a very simple operation of inserting the male screw member into the screw insertion hole from above and screwing into the female screw hole. Tightening force can be applied to the member.

  In addition, if the screen mounting member is mounted only on one end edge of the top plate, for example, when the customer service counter is partitioned, the screen mounting member is disposed on the edge on the side of the person serving the customer. The presence of such a screen mounting member can be made inconspicuous from the customer side.

  As an aspect for adjusting the appearance of such a screen, the screen base includes a notch for accommodating the attachment auxiliary member. If it is such, it is because the said mounting auxiliary member can be concealed from the space above a top plate by accommodating the said mounting auxiliary member in the said notch.

  As an aspect for more stably attaching the screen to the furniture with a top plate, there is one in which a grip portion made of an elastic member is formed on the upper surface of the attachment member. In such a case, a tightening force is applied by the tightening means, and when the attachment member contacts the lower surface of the top plate, the grip portion contacts the lower surface of the top plate, thereby This is because the sliding frictional force with the contact member can be increased.

  As a mode for stably supporting the screen panel on the screen base, a bead is interposed between a lower edge portion of the screen panel and the screen base, and the bead is positioned on the screen base. The screen panel attached to the portion is press-fitted, and an uneven engaging portion is formed between the screen base and the bead by engaging the engaging protrusion and the engaging groove. The thing that is. This is because the screen base and the bead can be prevented from moving up and down relative to each other in the uneven engagement portion.

  The screen according to the present invention can be fixed to furniture with a top plate by simply urging and fixing the attachment member upward and the screen base downward by the fastening means from above the screen base. The screen can be easily attached as compared with the case of fixing the screen by applying tightening force below the top plate, and it is not necessary to provide means for supporting the screen below the top plate. Generation | occurrence | production of the malfunction by which the space under a board | plate is blocked | closed can be suppressed.
