There are types of partitions (1.8 m, etc.), and we selected a partition of a height that suits various tasks from these, and fixed it with screws to the columns and connecting fittings.

[0004]

Therefore, in the conventional partition, once the construction is completed, the height cannot be changed, and if the height is changed, all the partitions must be replaced. There was a problem that it was not possible to respond promptly to requests for height changes.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a partition which can promptly respond to a request for height change.

[0006]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a flat first partition member, which is erected upright, and a withdrawal / removal position from the first partition member. And a flat second partition member that extends freely.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, a flat first partition member that is erected upright, and a flat second partition member that extends freely from and into the first partition member are provided.
Fixing means for fixing the second partition member to the first partition member.

[0008]

With the above construction, in the invention according to claim 1, the height can be easily adjusted because the height can be adjusted by taking the second partition member in and out of the first partition member. You can do it.

Further, according to the second aspect of the present invention, the second partition member can be fixed to the first partition member by extending the second partition member upward from the first partition member. It is easy to change the size.
