Description

  The present invention relates to a screen panel used for partitioning a space such as an office into a plurality of areas.

In a space such as an office, a panel for dividing the space into a plurality of areas is used.
Such panels include various types such as those arranged so as to be sandwiched between adjacent desks, those fixed to a desk, and those provided independently.

In recent years, there are many screen panels configured by stretching a cloth material between support frames that are spaced apart (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 5).
By adopting such a structure, the weight of the screen panel itself can be kept small, and the panel can be handled well during installation and movement. In addition, since the main part is made of a cloth material, it is possible to form various shapes, and also has the advantage that the space can be partitioned gently without completely blocking light. .

  One of the usage forms of the screen panel as described above is to provide a person who uses the desk or table with a personal space independent from the surroundings by bringing it close to a fixture such as a desk or table. However, in this case, the top plate of the fixture and the end of the screen panel interfere with each other, so that the installation conditions are limited and the degree of freedom of use is impaired.

  Further, in a form in which the screen panel is used independently, the screen panel is usually provided with legs. In particular, the leg portion has a problem that a portion protruding in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the screen panel, which is provided for stably supporting the screen panel, obstructs a space such as a foot.

  Furthermore, when the screen panels are not used, when storing and storing them, there are many cases where it is difficult or impossible to make the conventional screen panels compact. As a result, there has been a problem that a large space for accommodation must be secured.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a screen panel that can increase the degree of freedom of installation and use, suppress the obstruction of the surrounding space, and can be stored compactly even when not in use.

The present invention employs the following means in order to solve the above problems. That is, in the screen panel of the present invention, the connecting member is connected to at least one of the plurality of panel members, the connecting member that rotatably connects the panel members, and the plurality of panel members. Provided at the other end opposite to the one end, and a recessed portion into which the fixed portion constituting at least a part of the fixed object is inserted and fixed , and sandwiching the fixed portion inside the recess A fixing member for fixing the panel member to the fixed object is provided .
The screen panel can fix the panel member to the fixed object by inserting and fixing the fixed part of the fixed object into the recess formed in the panel member. Thereby, the leg part for making a panel member become stable independently becomes unnecessary in the lower part of a panel member.
Here, the fixed object may be any object as long as it has a fixed part located in a horizontal plane. For example, the fixed portion includes a desk or counter top plate. Of course, a plate-like member located in a horizontal plane can be used as the fixed portion in various other fixtures.

In order to insert and hold the fixed portion of the fixed object in the concave portion, for example, the opening height of the concave portion may be substantially equal to the thickness of the fixed portion, and the fixed portion may be fitted into the concave portion. It is also possible to use bolts / nuts, screws, nails and the like.
Moreover, it is preferable that the fixing member has a plate portion pressed against the surface of the fixed portion. Thereby, a panel can be fixed with high stability.
Furthermore, it is preferable that the fixing member is a screw type so that the projecting dimension from the inside of the recess toward the fixing member can be adjusted.
The fixing member may be removed from the recess and attached to the lower end of the panel member.

    When the fixed part has a main body member protruding toward the side and a support material for supporting the main body member on the lower side of the base end, the support material is provided below the opening end side of the recess. It is also preferable to form a relief recess that avoids interference with the head.

    Further, if the corners of the panel member are cut away, the user's field of view is not completely blocked, and the feeling of pressure during use can be eased. It is also possible to incorporate natural light into the space. Furthermore, the feeling of pressure to the surroundings by the screen panel can be eased, and it can be used as an accent on the design of the screen panel.

It is preferable that the connecting member is detachably attached to at least one of the two panel members to be connected. Thereby, it can handle in the single-piece | unit state which does not connect a panel member except at the time of use, and conveyance, storage, etc. become easy.
Further, the panel member can be used by being fixed to the fixed portion in a single state.

According to the present invention, the panel member can be fixed to the fixed object by inserting and fixing the fixed part of the fixed object into the slit-shaped recess formed in the panel member. Thereby, the leg part for making a panel member stably independent becomes unnecessary in the lower part of a panel member, and effective utilization of a space and an external appearance improvement can be aimed at without impairing foot space.
Such a screen panel can be used not only in a state in which the fixed portion is inserted and fixed in the recess, but also in a self-supporting state, and various restrictions can be applied by relaxing the constraint condition when installing the screen panel in the space. Can be provided and can be stored compactly when stored.
Furthermore, since the connection members between the panel bodies are detachable, the panel body alone can be used as a partition, and the use as a screen panel can be made more diverse.

It is a plane sectional view which shows the usage type of the fixing member provided in the panel member. It is a perspective view which shows a connection member. It is a figure which shows the example of the some usage pattern of a screen panel. It is a perspective view which shows the usage example of a screen panel. It is a perspective view which shows the example at the time of using a panel member alone. It is a perspective view showing an example when storing a panel member.

  Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out a screen panel according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited only to these examples.

FIG. 1 is an elevation view showing a screen panel 10 in the present embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 1, the screen panel 10 has a configuration in which two panel members 11, 11 are connected to each other by connecting members 12, 12 functioning as hinges.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the panel member 11 includes a frame 13 provided continuously along the outer shape of the panel member 11, and a screen material that covers the inside of the frame 13 by covering the frame 13. 15. As the screen material 15, cloth materials made of various fiber materials can be used. Such a screen material 15 can be put on the frame 13 in the form of a bag. In addition, the material which forms the panel member 11 is not restricted to the above-mentioned structure, It can also form with the board material which consists of various materials including a metal material and a resin material.

  As shown in FIG. 1, an opening 16 is formed in the screen material 15 at a portion where the panel members 11 adjacent to each other are connected to each other. On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 1, 3, and 4, the connecting member 12 includes clamp portions 12 a and 12 a that fit into the frames 13 and 13 of the two panel members 11 and 11. For example, when the frame 13 has a circular cross section, the clamp portion 12a has a substantially C-shaped cross section with a part opened. Such a connection member 12 inserts the clamp parts 12a and 12a of the connection member 12 from the opening 16 of the screen material 15 in a state where the two panel members 11 and 11 to be connected are in contact with each other, and both frames Fit to 13 and 13. Thereby, the two panel members 11 and 11 are rotatably connected by the connecting member 12.

Since the connecting member 12 having such a clamp portion 12a only needs to fit the clamp portion 12a into the frame 13, it can be easily attached and detached by the user, and the two panel members 11 and 11 are connected. Or can be used independently without being connected, and the usage pattern can be freely changed.
The connecting member 12 may be detachable from at least one of the panel members 11 and 11 adjacent to each other.

As shown in FIG. 1, the panel member 11 is connected to the other panel member 11 by the connecting member 12 from the end portion 11 b on the side different from the one end portion 11 a toward the one side portion 11 a side. A slit-like fitting recess (recess) 20 that is continuous in the horizontal direction in the state in which the screen panel 10 is installed is formed.
A horizontal fixing plate (fixed portion) 100 such as a top plate that constitutes at least a part of the fixed target object and serves as a fixed portion is inserted into the fitting recess 20 at a desk or counter that is the fixed target object. The panel member 11 is fixed to the fixing plate 100. For this reason, the fitting recess 20 is set to a height substantially equal to the fixed plate 100 that is a fixed portion whose opening position is assumed, and the opening width is at least the maximum of the fixed plate 100 assumed. It is set to be more than the thickness.

  The fitting recess 20 is provided with fixing members 21 and 22 for fixing the panel member 11 to the fixing plate 100 on the upper side and the lower side thereof at positions facing each other vertically. One fixing member 21 extends in one direction and has a width equivalent to the thickness of the panel member 11, for example, an oval or rectangular plate portion 21a, and a male portion extending perpendicular to the surface of the plate portion 21a. The screw part 21b is formed. The other fixing member 22 is formed of, for example, a circular pad portion 22a having a diameter equivalent to the thickness of the panel member 11, and a male screw portion 22b extending perpendicularly to the surface of the pad portion 22a. These male screw portions 21 b and 22 b are screwed into female screw portions (not shown) formed in the frame 13 of the panel member 11.

Such fixing members 21 and 22 can adjust the protrusion dimension to the inside of the fitting recessed part 20 by rotating each.
And in the state which pressed the plate part 21a of the one fixing member 21 against the surface of the fixing plate 100, the fixing plate 100 is sandwiched between the one fixing member 21 and the other fixing member 22, so that the panel member 11 is held. It is possible to stably fix and support the fixing plate 100.

Either one of the fixing members 21 and 22 may be arranged vertically. For example, when the fixing member 21 having the plate portion 21a is disposed above the fixing plate 100, the longitudinal direction of the plate portion 21a is made parallel to the surface on which the panel member 11 is located, as shown by the solid line in FIG. Thus, the panel member 11 can be fixed to the fixing plate 100 in a state in which the plate portion 21a is prevented from protruding sideways. If the fixing member 21 having the plate portion 21a is disposed below the fixing plate 100, the plate portion 21a is positioned perpendicular to the surface of the panel member 11 as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. However, the plate portion 21a does not interfere with the work on the fixed plate 100, and the panel member 11 can be stably fixed to the fixed plate 100.
Of course, both of the fixing members 21 and 22 may be the fixing member 21 having the plate portion 21a. Further, the fixing members 21 and 22 may have other configurations as appropriate.

The fitting recess 20 is preferably formed with a relief recess 17 on the lower side of the fitting recess 20 on the opening end 20a side so that the opening height gradually increases toward the opening end 20a.
The escape recess 17 prevents interference between the support portion 101 and the panel member 11 even when the support portion 101 for supporting the fixing plate 100 on the lower side of the proximal end exists below the fixing plate 100. Can do.
As a result, the panel member 11 can be inserted into the fitting recess 20 and fixed securely.

In the panel member 11, notches 18 </ b> A and 18 </ b> B can be formed at upper and lower corners of the end portion 11 a on the side connected to the other panel member 11.
In particular, the upper notch 18A can suppress a feeling of pressure to the surroundings by the screen panel 10. In addition, the portion formed by the cutout portions 18A and 18B allows daylighting from the external space partitioned by the screen panel 10 to the internal space.
Such cutout portions 18A and 18B are not limited in shape or formation position.

  Legs 19 and 19 for adjusting the height and level of the panel member 11 are provided on the bottom surface of the panel member 11. At least one of the legs 19 is screwed into the bottom surface of the panel member 11 by a screw member (not shown), and the projecting dimension from the bottom surface of the panel member 11 can be changed by adjusting the screwing amount. Yes.

In the screen panel 10 as described above, a fixing plate 100 such as a desk or counter top plate is fitted and inserted into the recess 20, and the plate portion 21 a of one fixing member 21 is pressed against the surface of the fixing plate 100. In this state, the panel member 11 can be stably fixed and supported with respect to the fixing plate 100 by sandwiching the fixing plate 100 between the one fixing member 21 and the other fixing member 22. Thereby, the space on one side and the space on the other side of the screen panel 10 can be partitioned.
And since the fixing members 21 and 22 are provided in the fitting recess 20 into which the fixing plate 100 is inserted, the panel member 11 can be reliably fixed without impairing the foot space.

  In such a screen panel 10, one panel member 11 may be fixed to the fixed plate 100, and the two panel members 11, 11 may be linearly arranged to partition the space. As shown in FIG. 6, the panel members 11 and 11 are rotated by the connecting member 12 so as to form an angle with respect to the one panel member 11 so that the other panel member 11 is viewed in a plan view. The space may be partitioned by bending it into an L-shape or a square shape. When the former two panel members 11 and 11 are arranged linearly, spaces adjacent to each other can be defined on a desk or counter. In the latter case, the space inside the bent screen panel 10 can be a personal space independent from the surrounding space.

  Further, the screen panel 10 does not insert the fixing plate 100 into the fitting recess 20, and is viewed in plan so that the other panel member 11 is at an angle with respect to one panel member 11 in plan view. By making it L-shaped or square-shaped, it can be used independently. At this time, instead of the legs 19, the fixing member 21 may be fitted and removed from the recessed portion 20 and attached to the lower end of the panel member 11, and the plate portion 21 a may be arranged to intersect the panel member 11. By doing so, it is possible to improve the self-supporting stability when the screen panel 10 is used alone without inserting the fixing member 100, and therefore the two panel members 11, 11 are arranged at an angle. It becomes possible to be independent without making it happen.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, the connection member 12 can be attached to and detached from the panel members 11, 11, so that it is possible to use the panel member 11 constituting the screen panel 10. It is. In that case, the fixing plate 100 is inserted into the fitting recess 20, and the panel member 11 is fixed to the fixing plate 100 by the fixing members 21 and 22 shown in FIG. 1. Thereby, the space on the stationary plate 100 such as a desk or a counter can be partitioned by the single panel member 11. In that case, the space at the foot is not damaged.

  Further, when the screen panel 10 is not used, the panel members 11 and 11 can be folded to be compactly stored. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, for example, the panel members 11 and 11 can be stored in a L shape in plan view along the corners of the columns and walls.

  In this way, the screen panel 10 can be installed in various usage forms with a high degree of freedom, and can be stored compactly when not in use without impairing the foot space. .

  Further, in the present embodiment, the screen panel 10 having a configuration in which the panel members 11 and 11 having the fitting recess 20, the escape recess 17, and the notches 18 </ b> A and 18 </ b> B are connected symmetrically is a butterfly shape. A design can be exhibited, and the design of the space in which the screen panel 10 is used can be improved.

The screen panel of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment described with reference to the drawings, and various modifications can be considered within the technical scope.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the screen panel 10 is configured by the two panel members 11, 11, but the screen panel 10 may be configured by connecting three or more panel members 11. In that case, it is preferable to form an opening at the end of each panel member 11. Thereby, the number of panel members 11 and 11 to be connected can be easily changed by using the connecting member 12 as described above.

In addition, the fixing plate 10 which is a fixed portion is fixed by being sandwiched between fixing members 21 and 22 provided in the inserted fitting recess 20, but the opening width of the fitting recess 20 is fixed to the fixing plate. The fixing plate 10 may be fitted to the recess 20 itself so that it is substantially equal to the thickness 10.
Further, the connecting member 12 can be appropriately changed to another configuration. For example, if the connecting member 12 is configured not to be attached and detached, a so-called hinge can be used.

The fitting recess 20 may be formed only on one panel member 11 that is fixed to the fixing plate 100. In that case, other panel members 11 may have other shapes.
In addition to this, as long as it does not depart from the gist of the present invention, the configuration described in the above embodiment can be selected or changed to another configuration as appropriate.
