Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a partition pole installed at a position such as a boundary between an exhibit and a viewer in a museum or art gallery.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a partition pole of this type has a plurality of columns mounted on the floor at a predetermined interval,
It is composed of a bar that connects the columns. And as the mounting structure of the bar, an annular connecting part is provided at both ends of the bar, and the connecting part is fixed to the screw shaft erected at the tip of the support with an upper lid with a nut, and each surface of the support of the square pole. There are two types of known ones, one in which a fitting hole is formed near the upper end of and the bar is fitted into the fitting hole facing between the columns.

[0003]

In the former partition pole, when installing, the columns are first arranged on the floor surface at predetermined intervals, then the connecting portions of the bars are fitted into the screw shafts of the columns, and then connected by the nut-attached upper lid. The part is tightened and fixed. With this structure, it is possible for a plurality of workers to arrange the columns on a straight line, or to arrange a polygonal shape other than a straight line by aligning the corners of the polygon. However,
Since the connecting parts are ring-shaped, it was not easy to fit them into the screw shafts one by one and fix them with the nut-equipped upper lid. In addition, due to the thickness of the connecting portion, the height of the bar was not the same among the columns, which made the appearance of the bar poor.

On the other hand, the latter partition pole is superior to the former in terms of workability in fixing the bar, but a plurality of workers arrange the columns in advance at predetermined intervals. However, it is impossible to install the bar afterwards, and since the direction of the fitting hole into which the bar is inserted is fixed, the bar cannot be installed in a polygonal shape.

An object of the present invention is to eliminate such a problem.

[0006]

The present invention takes the following means in order to achieve such an object. That is, the partition pole according to the invention of claim 1 is a partition pole including at least a pair of struts and a bar detachably installed between the struts, and the struts are urged outward from the struts. The connecting means comprises a cylindrical body having a bottom plate that is slidably movable in the central direction and a pivotally supporting member that pivotally supports the cylindrical body in the vicinity of the upper end of the supporting column, and the bar is connected to each supporting column. It is characterized in that it is inserted into and installed.

A partition pole according to a second aspect of the present invention is a partition pole including at least a pair of columns and a bar that is detachably installed between the columns, and the column has a bottom plate to which the column is fixed. And a pivoting member that pivotally supports the tubular body near the upper end of the column so that the bar contracts in the longitudinal direction when an external force is applied to reduce the length of the bar. It is characterized in that it has a built-in expansion / contraction means for shortening, and the bar is inserted into the connecting means of each of the columns to be installed.

A plurality of connecting means are provided for one support,
It is preferable that four pieces are provided, and in that case, the pivot members of the respective connecting means should support the cylinders so that the axes of the respective cylinders are at the same height.

A coil spring is preferable as a means for urging the bottom plate of the cylindrical body in the outward direction of the column.

Similarly, a coil spring may be used as the expansion / contraction means incorporated in the bar.

[0011]

According to the structure of the first aspect of the present invention, when installing, the columns are previously arranged on the floor surface at a predetermined interval, and then one end of the bar is inserted into the cylindrical body of the connecting means so that one end of the bottom plate is formed. When the bar is inserted further from the state where the ends are in contact with each other, the bottom plate of the cylinder slides toward the center of the column, so that the distance between the columns is substantially extended with respect to the actual length of the bar. Become. According to the structure of the second aspect of the present invention, when the bar is inserted into the cylindrical body of the connecting means and the bar is further inserted from the state where the one end is in contact with the bottom plate, the expanding and contracting means of the bar moves in the longitudinal direction. The actual length of the bar is less than the distance between the stanchions.

Therefore, the other end of the bar can be easily inserted into the connecting means of the supporting pillar without moving the supporting pillar, and the workability of installation and withdrawal is improved. Further, since the connecting means is rotatable with respect to the support column, the horizontal angle between the support column and the bar can be arbitrarily set, so that it is possible to easily form a polygonal shape by using a plurality of support columns and a plurality of bars. Can be installed.

Embodiment 2 FIGS. 5 to 6 are different from the above-described Embodiment 1 in the structure of the cylinder and the bar of the connecting means, and the other structures are the same as those in Embodiment 1. The same reference numerals are given in the drawings, and the description thereof is omitted.

The connecting means 71, 81, 91 of this embodiment
The cylindrical body 121 of 101 does not have a coil spring inside, and the bottom plate 121a is fixed.

On the other hand, the bar 21 is composed of a bar body 21a made of a round pipe whose surface is acrylic baked and coated, a coil spring 21b which is an expansion / contraction means provided in the bar body 21a, and a coil spring 21b. The main body 21a is composed of a round bar 21c that is urged outward in the longitudinal direction. The structure for preventing the round bar 21c from falling off the bar body 21a is not shown in detail, but
A known configuration may be used. Further, the coil spring 21b and the round bar 21c may be formed at least at one end of the bar body 21a, and need not necessarily be formed at both ends of the bar body 21a. In such a configuration, when the end portion of the round bar 21c is pushed in the direction of the bar body 21a, the round bar 21c moves into the bar body 21a against the elastic force of the coil spring 21b.
Therefore, the length of the bar 21 is substantially reduced.

When installing this embodiment, as in the case of the above-mentioned Embodiment 1, the work is started by placing the columns 1A on the floor surface at predetermined positions at predetermined intervals. The predetermined interval may be set shorter than the length of the bar 21 by the distance that the round bar 21c moves. After the preparation of the pillar 1A,
The round bar 21c urged by the coil spring 21b of the bar 21 is inserted into the connecting means 71 to 101 of the target column 1A. The tip of the round bar 21c is the bottom plate 1 of the cylindrical body 121.
When the bar 21 is further pushed toward the center of the column 1A after coming into contact with the bar 21a, the round bar 21c moves into the bar body 21a. As a result, the entire length of the bar 21 is shortened by the moved length of the round bar 21c. Bar 21 in this state
The remaining end of the bar is inserted into the column 1A, and when the bar 21 is released, the bar 21 is moved by the urging force of the coil spring 21b.
It will be installed between the columns 1A and 1A of the book. In addition,
In the bar 21 in which the round bars 21c at both ends are biased by the coil springs 21b, which round bar 2 of the bar 21
Since the work can be performed even if 1c is inserted into the connecting means 71 to 101 first, the work efficiency is improved.
