Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to the fixing of a partition panel that is suspended from a hanger rail installed on the ceiling and moves along the rail to appropriately divide an indoor space and make it usable for multiple purposes. The first purpose of this device is to rationally and reliably assemble panels and fix panels to the ceiling and floor, and the second purpose is to assemble adjacent panels in one operation. A partitioning panel that can reliably seal the gap between the partitioning panel or the wall, can be securely fixed to the floor and ceiling, and can perform both of these operations with a simple structure. The present invention provides methods and fixation devices.

An embodiment embodying the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, the partition panel main body 1 includes a left vertical frame 2, a right vertical frame 3, an upper horizontal frame 4, and a U-shaped cross section.
The lower horizontal frames 5 and 5 are connected to each other to form a rectangular frame 6, and a decorative board 7 is provided on the outside of the frame 6, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. An upper housing recess 8, a lower housing recess 9, and a left housing recess 10 are provided in the upper surface, lower surface, and left side surface of the decorative board 7, respectively, and an upper moving member 11, a lower moving member 12, and a side moving member. 1
3 are accommodated respectively.

Reference numerals 14 and 15 denote upper and lower support frames fixedly installed inside the right vertical frame 3. A rotating shaft 16 is rotatably supported between the upper and lower support frames 14 and 15, and bevel gears 17a, 17b is fixed. The lower bevel gear 17b is a drive shaft 18 rotatably supported with respect to the decorative plate 7.
It meshes with a bevel gear 19 fixed to.
The drive shaft 18 is rotated by an operation handle (not shown) inserted from the decorative plate 7 and rotated, and the bevel gears 19 and 17b and the rotation shaft 16
The rotation is transmitted to the bevel gear 17a via the bevel gear 17a,
17b, 19, the rotation shaft 16, and the drive shaft 18 constitute a drive mechanism.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, 20 is a drive rod composed of a spline shaft 20a having a rectangular cross section, a threaded rod 20b, and a connecting shaft 20c that are connected and fixed by a joint member 20d, and the spline shaft 20a is rotatably supported by the upper support frame 14 and connected non-rotatably and movably in the axial direction to a bevel gear 21 that meshes with the bevel gear 17a. Therefore, the drive rod 20 is rotated as the bevel gear 17a rotates.

Reference numeral 22 denotes a driven block screwed onto the screw rod 20b, which can be moved in the axial direction by rotation of the drive rod 20, but whose movement is restricted by the biasing force of a spring 40, which will be described later. It is. Reference numeral 23 indicates a pair of upper and lower connecting links rotatably supported by a shaft pin 24 with respect to the driven block 22, and reference numeral 25 has a base end rotatably supported relative to the connecting link 23 with a shaft pin 26. It is a pair of upper and lower extrusion links, and the distal ends thereof are connected and fixed to the upper moving member 11 and the lower moving member 12 (see FIG. 6).

The pair of upper and lower push-out links 25 are supported movably up and down by a support frame 27 connected between the left and right vertical frames 2 and 3, and upper and lower horizontal frames 4 and 5, respectively, and the driven block 22 is shown in FIG. When moving to the left, the pair of upper and lower connecting links 23 are expanded, the upper push-out link 25 is moved upward, and the lower push-out link 25 is moved downward. Accordingly, the upper and lower moving members 11, 12 protrude from the respective receiving recesses 8, 9.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, 30 is a pair of upper and lower support plates fixed to the upper and lower parts of the inner surface of the left vertical frame 2, each of which is rotatable with an operating link 31 by a shaft pin 32. It is pivoted on. The pair of upper and lower operating links 31 are each provided with a long hole 33 at their opposing ends, and are connected to the connecting shaft 20c of the drive rod 20.
A support shaft 34 is rotatably attached to the support shaft 34 via a bearing 34b, and a shaft portion 34a of the support shaft 34 is inserted through the elongated hole 33 and rotatably connected to the coaxial portion 34a. . Pair of upper and lower operating links 3
The other end of the lateral moving member 13 is fixed to the left side surface of the side moving member 13, and its tip is rotatably supported by a shaft pin 36 to a connecting rod 35 protruding from the left vertical frame 2.

Therefore, when the drive rod 20 moves to the right in FIG.
rotates clockwise, the side moving member 1
3 protrudes outward from the housing recess 10.

As shown in FIG. 1, support plates 37 are fixedly installed inside the upper and lower sides of the left vertical frame 2, and rotatably support the four guide rollers 38. The guide roller 38 supports a guide rod 39 fixed to the left side of both upper and lower sides of the side moving member 13 so as to be movable in the left-right direction.

Reference numeral 40 denotes a spring serving as a balance member connected between the connecting link 23 and the operating link 31 so as to attract each other. In the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the load of the actuating link 31 on the drive rod 20 (the drive rod 2
0 is the force required to pull the operating link 31 to the right)
is made smaller than the load of the driven block 22 on the driving rod 20 (the force required to move the driven block 22 to the left as the driving rod 20 rotates).

Therefore, in the state shown in FIG.
0 is rotated so as to move rightward, the actuating link 31 starts to rotate as the drive rod 20 moves, and the side moving member 13 comes to move laterally. At this time, when the drive rod 20 rotates, a force that would normally move the driven block 22 to the left is exerted, but since the spring 40 urges the shaft pin 26 side of the connecting link 23, the driven block 22 is moved to that position. The drive rod 20 remains stationary, and only the drive rod 20 moves to the right. Then, when the side moving member 13 comes into contact with the side or side surface of an adjacent panel or when it is fully extended, the drive rod 20 moves the operating link 3
The force required to pull the driven block 1 becomes greater than the force required to move the driven block 22, and as a result, the drive rod 20 stops moving with the support shaft 34 as a fulcrum.

When the drive rod 20 stops moving, the rotation of the drive rod 20 causes the driven block 2 to move around the support shaft 34.
2 starts moving to the left. With this movement, the connecting link 23 expands, and the upper moving member 11 moves upward and the lower moving member 12 moves downward.

Next, the upper moving member 11 and the lower moving member 1
2, and a peripheral edge closing device that closes the space created above and below the side moving member 13 when the side moving member 13 moves. Note that this closing device includes upper and lower moving members 11,
For convenience of explanation, the closing device attached to the lower moving member 12 will be described because the structure thereof is basically the same.

In FIG. 7, the lower moving member 12 includes a buffer member 41 made of urethane rubber with a concave cross section, a square pipe-shaped inner frame 42 fixed in the concave portion, and a shield fixed to both outer surfaces of the buffer member 41. It consists of a plate (not shown). The push-out link 25 is connected and fixed to the upper surface of the inner frame 42.
The bottom surface of the buffer member 41 is formed to be flat as shown in FIG. It comes into contact with the surface and maintains a completely sealed state. In this embodiment, the bottom surface is flat, but the same effect can be obtained even if the bottom surface is formed into a wavy cross section as shown in FIG.

43 is a pair of supports extending from the left end of the buffer member 41 as shown in FIG. 10, and a part of the inner frame 42 is in contact with the inner surface of the supports 43. There is.

Reference numeral 44 denotes a closing member provided on the left side of the lower moving member 12, which includes a buffer member 45 made of urethane rubber having a recess with a concave cross section, an inner frame 46 in the shape of a square pipe fixed to the recess, and an outer frame 44. It is composed of a shield plate 47 fixedly attached to the side surface. As shown in FIG. 10, 48 is a pair of engagement protrusions extending from the rear upper side of the buffer member 45, and the closing member 44 is located between the supports 43 provided on the buffer member 41 of the lower moving member 12. When the rear portions are slidably fitted, the lower surface of the engagement protrusion 48 comes into slidable contact with the upper surface of the support body 43.

Reference numeral 49 denotes a support frame disposed on the upper surface of both the inner frames 42 and 46 as shown in FIGS. The guide hole 49a is slidably abutted against the inner frame 46 of the guide hole 49a. Reference numeral 50 indicates a guide hole 49 transparently provided in the support frame 49 on the upper surface of the inner frame 46 of the closing member 44.
It is a spacing member that is slidably disposed on the inner frame 46 and is fixed to the inner frame 46 with screws 51.
52 is the screw 5 on the upper surface of the spacing member 50.
1, and is slidably engaged with the support frame 49 as shown in FIG.

Reference numeral 53 denotes a guide rod as a guide member whose base end is fixed to the left side surface of the lower end of the side moving member 13 and passes through the spacing member 50 and the inner frame 46 . is movable only in the vertical direction with respect to the guide rod 53.

54 is a buffer member attached to the right outer surface of the shield plate 47. A guide rod 55 is fixed to the lower surface of the lower horizontal frame 5, and passes through the support frame 49, the right end notch 46a of the inner frame 46, and the buffer member 41.

Therefore, when the side moving member 13 moves to the left, the guide rod 53 moves the closing member 44 to the left together with the moving member 13. When the side moving member 13 stops and the lower moving member 12 moves downward, the closing member 44 is moved downward along the guide rods 53 and 55 and comes into contact with the floor surface together with the lower moving member 12. Therefore, the lower side of the side moving member 13 is completely sealed by the closing member 44.

Next, a method of using the partition panel configured as described above will be explained.

Now, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, move the normal partition panel P along the hanger rail 56 disposed on the ceiling, and finally move the partition panel main body equipped with the side moving member 13. 1, wall, and panel P along the hanger rail 56.

Then, when the first drive rod 20 is rotated using the operation handle, the side moving member 13 moves laterally and comes into contact with the side surface of the adjacent partition panel P, thereby creating a gap between the panels P and a gap between the walls. Completely close the gap. When the gap is completely closed, the upper moving member 11 then projects upward and the lower moving member 12 projects downward. When the upper moving member 11 contacts the hanger rail 56 and the lower moving member 12 contacts the floor surface, the gaps on both the upper and lower sides are completely closed, and the partition panel main body 1 is completely fixed without wobbling. Moreover, at this time, the closing member 44 is operated by the movement of the side moving member 13 and the vertical moving members 11 and 12.
As a result, the gaps created between the upper end of the side moving member 13 and the hanger rail 56 and between the lower end and the floor surface are completely closed.

As described above, this embodiment has a simple structure and can securely fix the partition panel main body 1 without creating a gap by simply operating a single operating handle. Moreover, when fixing the panel body 1, first move the side moving member 13,
Next, by moving the upper and lower moving members 11 and 12, adjacent panels, etc. can be connected efficiently and reliably.

On the other hand, when storing the panel main body 1 as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. is moved, and the panel body 1 is easily unfixed and can be easily moved to the storage position.

In this embodiment, the operating handle is used to rotate the drive rod 20, but this may also be done using a motor as the drive source. Also, a spring 40 is used as a balance member between the connecting link 23 and the operating link 3.
1, but any mechanism may be used as long as it allows the drive rod 20 to first move to the right in FIG. 1 and then the driven block 22 to the left when fixing the panel body 1. For example, , drive rod 20
The load on the working link 31 to the driven block 2
In order to reduce the load of 2, a spring 57 is connected between the operating link 31 and the left vertical frame 2 as shown by the broken line in FIG. 1, a spring is connected between the pair of upper and lower connecting links 23, and Mechanically, the load on the operating link 31 may be reduced.

Further, in the above embodiment, the upper and lower moving members 1
Although both of 1 and 12 are moved respectively, this may be carried out by omitting either one (for example, omitting the upper moving member 11).

Further, in the above embodiment, the lower moving member 12 and the push-out link 25 are directly fixed as shown in FIG. 6, but they may be connected to the moving member 12 via an elastic member 58 as shown in FIG. .

As detailed above, the partitioning panel fixing device of the present invention moves the side moving member provided on the panel body outward to bring it into close contact with the adjacent panel or wall surface, and then Since the upper and lower movable members are moved and fixed to the ceiling and floor, the connecting parts can be reliably and rationally connected, and further,
The partitioning panel fixing device of the present invention can reliably seal the gap between adjacent partitioning panels or walls with one operation, and can also reliably fix the partitioning panel to the floor and ceiling, and can perform both of these operations. It has excellent effects that can be obtained with a simple structure.
