[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a partition assembly.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, when a room such as an office is partitioned by partitions, a plurality of independent partitions are arranged so as to have a desired layout.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, as mentioned above, if only the independent partitions were lined up, if the walking person bumped into the partition for a while, the partition would move. Therefore, the position of the partition had to be corrected each time.

Further, a large gap is likely to occur between the partitions, which is unsightly.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and to provide a partition assembly in which adjacent partition panels can be connected easily and in an orderly manner.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the partition assembly according to the present invention comprises a partition panel with a laterally extending vertical groove formed at a side edge thereof, and further, a strip-shaped flexible connecting portion and the strip-shaped flexible joint. A plurality of the partitions are connected by a connecting member that is integrally formed along both long sides of the flexible connecting part and has a bar-shaped mounting part that is fitted into the enlarged longitudinal groove of the partition panel. The panels are interconnected.

It is also preferable to attach a horizontal guide plate having an arcuate hole to the lower end of the intersection where the side edges of the plurality of partition panels are brought close to each other.

Further, it is also desirable to connect a plurality of partition panels so that the mutual angles in plan view can be changed.

[0009]

[Action]

 A plurality of partition panels can be easily connected only by inserting the rod-shaped mounting portion of the connecting member into the enlarged inner longitudinal groove of the side edge portion of the partition panel.

After the connection, since the strip-plate-like flexible connecting portion of the connecting member is interposed between the side edge portions of the adjacent panels, no gap is generated. Then, the angle formed by the adjacent panels (in plan view) can be easily changed by the deformation of the strip-shaped flexible connecting portion.

If a horizontal guide plate is attached to the lower end of the intersecting portion of the panel, the layout shape of the panel can be maintained.

Furthermore, a plurality of panels can be connected so that the mutual angles in a plan view can be changed, and the layout shape can be changed.
