Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a partitioning device for partitioning a room with partitioning panels, and more particularly, to extending a partitioning panel into a relatively large indoor space such as a large conference room, an event hall, a banquet hall, and the like. The present invention relates to a partitioning device for pulling back the partitioning panel that has been extended to effectively use the room.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a relatively large room such as a large conference room, an event hall, a banquet hall, or the like, a manual or motor-based motor is used to cope with the scale of the conference, the content of the event, or the number of customers. 2. Description of the Related Art A conference room or a venue is partitioned by moving a partition panel using power means.

[0003] For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 3-64036 discloses a partition panel suspended from a ceiling rail so as to be movable, and the partition panel is moved by pressing it by hand along the rail. In the case of, it is difficult to move manually, so this is improved, and each partition panel is provided along a ceiling rail via a roller trolley called a runner, and a motor that drives the roller trolley is provided. In addition, a self-propelled partition panel in which a gear transmission is mounted on the partition panel itself has been proposed.

[0004]

By the way, the self-propelled partition panel proposed in the above-mentioned publication does not require any manual labor, and the power transmission mechanism is devised to significantly change the structure of the conventional partition panel. Although it has the advantage that it can be used without the need for a separate partition panel, a drive device is required for each partition panel, and it is necessary to supply power to each of the moving partition panels, which is a complicated and expensive device.
Further, when sound is shielded by the partition panels, it is necessary to make adjacent partition panels adhere to each other, but it is necessary to separately provide a press-contact device for close contact.

The present invention has been made based on the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to feed out each of the partition panels without providing a driving device for each of the partition panels. It is an object of the present invention to provide a partitioning device that can be pulled back and that can make close contact between partition panels without separately providing a pressure contact device for close contact.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a partitioning device according to the present invention (Claim 1) has a plurality of hanger rails arranged on a ceiling and a partitioning hanger rail. A panel rack in which a panel is suspended so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction of the rail, a driving device for pushing and pulling the panel rack in a direction parallel to the hanger rail, and a partition panel suspended in the hanger rail. A driving device that pushes and pulls the partition panel toward and from a partition hanger rail that is laid on a ceiling in a room (including a state in which the partition hanger is hung on the ceiling). The front and rear are the width directions of the partition panels and the direction of extrusion from the panel rack is forward.) A connecting portion that can be connected in a contact state with the rear end of the partition panel; and a connecting device that can be detachably connected to the push / pull driving device of the partition panel with a connecting portion provided at the rear end of the partition panel. Is provided.

That is, in the above configuration, the partition panel is suspended and stored on a hanger rail juxtaposed on the ceiling of the panel rack, and the panel rack is pushed and pulled in the juxtaposition direction of the hanger rail by the driving device. Since the panel rack is configured to be pushed or pulled by the panel rack pushing / pulling drive device, the ends of the hanger rails juxtaposed to the ceiling of the panel rack are sequentially placed on the ceiling in the room. Can be abutted against the end of the rail. On the other hand, the front end and the rear end of the partition panel are provided with a connecting portion that allows the front and rear ends of the front and rear partition panels to be connected in a contact state, and further, a push-pull driving device for the partition panel. Can be detachably connected to a connecting portion provided at the rear end of the partition panel (this connecting portion may be a connecting portion connected to the front end portion or may be a separate connecting portion). Since the connecting device is provided, by connecting and extruding the front and rear partition panels with the connecting part at the abutting position, the partition panels can be sequentially fed out and partitioned. Further, at this time, the partition panel can be brought into close contact by stopping the last partition panel in a pressed state by the push / pull drive device of the partition panel, so that the sound insulation effect can be improved. The partition panel can be easily pulled back and stored in the panel rack by the reverse operation of the above operation.

In the partitioning device according to the present invention, the connecting portion provided at the front end and the rear end of the partitioning panel may be configured such that one of the front end and the rear end has a hook-shaped member,
On the other hand, a hole formed in a panel capable of accommodating the tip of the hook-shaped member or a pin protruding from the surface of the panel capable of being accommodated in the hook-shaped member can be adopted, and the hook-shaped member is rotatably provided. To the hole or pin. In this case, the hook-shaped member has a hook-shaped portion having a length such that the front and rear ends of the front and rear partition panels can be connected in an abutting state.

In the partitioning device according to the present invention, the connecting portions provided at the front end and the rear end of the partition panel include the front end and the rear end at the front end and the rear end of the partition panel. A connecting device is formed at a connecting portion that is detachably connected to each other, and further has a connecting hole formed at a rear end portion, and a connecting device that can be detachably connected to the connecting hole at a push-pull driving device of the partition panel. (Claim 2). That is, this connecting portion is a case where the connecting portion is directly formed at the front end and the rear end of the partition panel, and the partition panel is formed without projecting a hook-shaped member or the like in the width direction of the partition panel. Connection between them can be performed.

The specific structure of the connecting portion provided at the front end and the rear end of the partition panel is as follows. The front and rear ends of the partition panel are oriented at the front and rear ends. (The front end is the panel surface, the rear end is the panel back)
In the cross-section in the width direction, the same concavo-convex shape is formed in the up-down direction, and the shape in which the concave groove width is formed to have a width capable of accommodating the convex protrusion can be adopted. In this configuration, connection or release of the front and rear partition panels can be performed by pushing and pulling the panel racks in the direction in which the hanger rails are juxtaposed (the thickness direction of the partition panels).
Partitioning can be automated. In this case, the connecting device provided in the push-pull drive device of the partition panel has a hook-shaped portion that is rotatably connected to and detachably connected to a connecting hole formed in the rear end of the partition panel. By adopting 4), the partition panels can be smoothly automated and the partition panels after the partition can be in close contact with each other. Even when the hook-shaped member and the hole or the pin are adopted, if the hook-shaped portion of the hook-shaped member can be mounted and connected horizontally, the push-pull operation similar to that described above can be used to connect the hook-shaped portion to the hole or the pin. In some cases, the connection can be performed. In such a case, it is needless to say that the partition can be automated without rotating the hook-shaped member by the rotating device.

In the partition device according to the present invention, a guide member for guiding a lower end portion of the partition panel may be provided on the floor of the panel rack. By providing such a guide member, the swinging of the partition panel in the thickness direction (the direction in which the hanger rails are arranged) in the panel rack can be prevented, and the partition panel can be pushed and pulled or connected more smoothly.
