Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention relates to wiring equipment for connecting wiring cables such as power lines or signal lines wired in the ceiling to floor wiring.

[Background technology] In recent years, so-called office automation and paperless offices have been proposed, and terminal devices such as computers and word processors,
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The frequency of using various electronic devices such as electronic copying machines and facsimile machines is increasing. As the frequency of use of these electronic devices increases, power lines for feeding power to electronic devices, signal lines for networks for exchanging data between electronic devices, and telephone lines for connecting electronic devices to telephone lines, etc. Various types of wiring cables are overflowing in offices, creating a problem called wiring flooding. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for wiring equipment that can neatly and safely route these wiring cables within an office.

To meet this demand, wiring equipment has been proposed that connects wiring cables such as power lines or signal lines wired in the ceiling to floor wiring. This wiring equipment includes a main body of equipment that stands on the floor and reaches the ceiling, and includes a branch breaker that branches power lines introduced from the ceiling, and a distribution board that is equipped with a connection terminal that connects the output of this branch breaker to the floor wiring. and a connection terminal board having a connection terminal for connecting the signal line to the floor wiring is built into the equipment main body, and a wiring cable of the floor wiring is connected to the connection terminal and led out from the bottom of the equipment main body. be.

By the way, as for conventional floor wiring, there is an under-carpet wiring system in which wiring cables are routed under a carpet laid on the floor, and a wiring cable for floor wiring is routed between the floor of a structure such as a building. Wiring = There is a raised floor wiring system that uses a floor raising device to create a gap. Under carpet wiring systems use thicker diameter wiring cables like raised floor wiring systems. Since unevenness occurs on the surface of the carpet, it is necessary to use wiring cables as thin as possible, such as flat cables. Therefore, the size of the opening through which these wiring cables are pulled out from the bottom of the equipment body depends on the type of wiring cable. I needed to change. In other words, if the equipment main body that has an opening for leading out a large diameter wiring cable for a raised floor wiring system is used for an undercarpet wiring system, a gap will be created in the opening from which the flat cable is led out, and the flat cable will It becomes unsightly due to exposure, and
There is also the risk of damaging this exposed flat cable section. For this reason, in the conventional equipment main body, a different equipment main body must be used depending on the above-mentioned floor wiring, and there is a problem that the equipment main body cannot be installed unless the floor wiring is determined, and furthermore, when the floor wiring is changed, There was a problem in which the equipment itself had to be changed.

[Purpose of the invention] The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and its purpose is to provide a wiring facility that can be used regardless of the type of floor wiring.

[Disclosure of the invention] (Structure) The present invention includes an equipment body that stands on the floor and reaches the ceiling, and connects wiring cables such as power lines or signal lines routed in the ceiling through the equipment body to the floor wiring. Wiring equipment that connects power lines and signal lines introduced from the ceiling to wiring cables of various wire types used for floor wiring is built into the equipment body, and connects the power lines and signal lines introduced from the ceiling to the floor of the structure. When using a floor raising device that provides a gap, an opening for leading out the wiring cable is drilled below the floor surface of the floor raising device in the equipment main body, and a lid is inserted into the opening. At the same time, a space is formed between the bottom surface of the lid and the floor surface from which thin wiring cables such as flat cables are led out, and an undercarpet wiring system is adopted as floor wiring. In this case, attach a lid to the bottom of the equipment body, route the wiring cable under the carpet through the gap formed between the bottom of the lid and the floor, and install free access. When a floor wiring system is adopted as floor wiring, thick wiring cables can be routed through the opening formed by removing the lid, so that the same equipment can be installed regardless of the type of floor wiring. It has been made possible to use.
