The base 18 is formed on the other side of the main body 15 where the lock mechanism 17 is not provided, has a bottomed cylindrical shape that opens upward, and is configured to have a smaller diameter downward.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described. First, the operating portion 25 of the lock mechanism 17 is pulled up by placing a finger on the finger hooking portion 28, and the protruding portion 26 is separated from the engaging groove 6 so that no engaging force is applied. In this state, the partition member 9 is installed on the guide rail 5. That is, as shown in FIG. 5, the locking mechanism 17 provided on the sliding member 8 is the rear side of the cargo compartment 3, that is, the rear side of the vehicle 2, and the base portion 18 is the front side of the cargo compartment 3, that is, the vehicle 2 As the front side, the engaging portion 16 is inserted from the rear end portion 5a of the vehicle 2 of the guide rail 5. At this time, the upper end portion of the guide rail 5 is engaged with the gap 21 formed between the wing portion 19 of the engagement portion 16 and the main body 15, and the wing portion 19 is engaged with the engagement groove 6. As a result, the lower surface of the main body 15 comes into sliding contact with the upper end of the guide rail 5. The sliding member 8 is appropriately slid along the guide rail 5, and the partition member 9 is moved to a desired position. At this time, since the operating portion 25 of the lock mechanism 17 is pulled up, the locking portion 17 is held by the fixing portion 35 in a state where the protruding portion 26 does not contact the surface of the engaging groove 6 and does not engage the reference point 7. The sliding member 8 can be moved smoothly.

When the partition member 4 is moved to a desired position, it is fixed by the lock mechanism 17. That is, as shown in FIG. 4A, a force is applied to the operation unit 25 downward. When a downward force is applied to the operation part 25, the engagement of the locking part 31 is released. When the engagement of the locking portion 31 is released, the operation portion 25 moves downward and pushes down one end of the coil spring 27. When one end of the coil spring 27 is pushed down, a downward biasing force is generated in the protruding portion 26. When a downward urging force is generated in the protruding portion 26, the convex portion 35a pushes the concave portion 35b, whereby the outer frame body 36 supporting the concave portion 35b is elastically deformed outward. When the outer frame body 36 is elastically deformed outward together with the concave portion 35b, the engagement of the fixing portion 35 is released. When the engagement of the fixing portion 35 is released, the protruding portion 26 moves downward. When the protruding portion 26 moves downward, the distal end portion 32 is pressed against the surface of the engaging groove 6 of the guide rail 5. In this state, the tip 32 is engaged with a reference point 7 formed on the guide rail 5. Thereby, the sliding member 8 is fixed and the partition member 9 is positioned. At this time, the step portion 33 abuts on the surface of the engagement groove 6, so that the tip portion 32 can be prevented from entering the reference point 7 too much.

Thus, since the lock mechanism 17 is disposed on the rear side of the cargo compartment 3, that is, on the rear side of the vehicle 2 in which the cargo is loaded, the space for the cargo compartment 3 is adjusted by moving the sliding member 8, The operation unit 25 can be operated and positioning can be performed easily. Further, since the base 18 is provided on the front side of the vehicle 2, it is possible to reliably absorb the load generated on the partition member 9 due to the load.
