Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Article] The present invention relates to a partition device for partitioning a room, and more specifically, partitioning is performed by running a plurality of partition panels along a rail, and each partition panel is moved along the rail. Regarding a partition device that rotates at one end so as to be substantially perpendicular to the rail to release the partition state, more specifically, it allows the partition panel to run stably with respect to the rail without rattling, and also makes this configuration effective. This technology relates to a technology that can be used to stably rotate partition panels to open and close them.

[Background Art] Conventionally, in a partitioning device, 7 or 11 runners are provided on the side of the partition panel with respect to the rail, and the partition panel can be freely rotated horizontally with respect to the vertical axis having the runners. By this, a plurality of partition panels are run along the rail to create a partition, and each partition panel is rotated at one end of the rail so as to be substantially perpendicular to the rail to release the partition state. However, in this situation, in order to run the partition panel along the rail, there is a gap between the runner and the rail, which is necessary for running. However, there was a problem in that rattling occurred, making it impossible to run smoothly, and rattling also occurred when rotating the partition panel to open it 1!1.

[Object of the invention] The present invention has been made in view of these problems,
The purpose is to provide a partition device that can eliminate rattling during running and rotation.

[Disclosure of the Invention] The present invention has a structure in which a plurality of partition panels 4 are freely runnable along the upper rail 1 and the lower rail 2 and can be opened and rotated substantially perpendicularly to the upper and lower rails 1.2. In the partitioning device, a hook gear 3 is provided on one vertical wall of an upper rail 1 and a lower rail 2 over the entire length of the rail, and a pinion gear 5 is provided in the upper and lower Ra portions of each of a plurality of partition panels 4 so as to be horizontally rotatable. This relates to a partitioning device characterized in that the pinion gear 5 is meshed with the rack gear 3, and by configuring it in this way,
We were able to achieve the above objectives. In other words, by meshing the hook gear and pinion gear at the top and bottom, it is possible to equalize the travel (i amount) of the upper and lower parts of the partition panel, and to prevent rattling in the travel (and, moreover, the rack gear and pinion gear at the top and bottom can be made equal). By rotating the partition panel while meshing with the gear, rattling is eliminated during rotation.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below based on the drawings.

A plurality of partition panels 4 are each installed over the upper rail 1 fixed to the lintel and the lower rail 2 fixed to the sill.
1 piece is built freely. These partition panels 4 are pulled out in a straight line along the upper and lower rails 1°2 as shown in Fig. 1, and adjacent ones are brought into contact with each other so that the opening in the room can be closed and partitioned. It's Nishide. In this closed state, the partition panel 4
The through-hole locking means provided above and below one end side locks the movement of the partition panel 4 to determine the position of each partition panel 4, thereby preventing the partition panel 4 from opening. +tn Open the living panel 4 and partition the room II? To remove the door, operate the lock handle 6 of the O1l partition panel 4 at the right end in Figure m1, release the cock of the locking means of this partition panel 4, and move the right end partition panel 4 to its right end as shown in Figure 3. Rotate the section so that it is approximately perpendicular to the upper and lower rails 1 and 2, and then move the remaining partition panel 4 slightly within the locked state. 111J, the partition panels 4 are released from contact with each other, and this release of contact automatically releases the locked state of the remaining partition panels 4. After that, the remaining partition panels 4 are released as shown in FIG. Each is rotated around its right end portion to create a non-partitioned state. The partition panel 4 thus rotated into a non-partitioning state is gathered at the left end of the upper and lower rails 1 and 2, so that the opening in the room can be enlarged (opening and releasing the partition can be done using force C).

The configuration for performing the above operations will be described in detail below.

As shown in Fig. 5, the upper rail 1 is divided into a rack/binion chamber 7 spanning the entire length and a runner chamber 8 below this, and the lower rail 2 has only the rack/binion chamber 7 as shown in No. 6I2I. It is formed. A rack holding piece 9 is provided along the entire length of one vertical wall of each rack/binion chamber 7. As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the hook gear 3 is considerably shorter in length than the upper and lower rails 1.2. A connecting convex portion 1 is provided at one end of the rough hook 73 in the length direction.
1 is formed, and a connection recess 12 is formed in the other ra portion. In addition, the rack gear 3 has an engagement groove 1 along its entire length.
0 is formed. Therefore, the rack holding piece 9 has the engaging groove 1.
0 and connect the connecting protrusion 11 to the connecting recess 12, and connect the rack gear 3 along the IJ1 wall on one side of the rack/binion chamber 7 of the upper and lower rails 1.2.
It is provided along the entire length of the

Pinion gears 5 provided in the partition panel 4111+ so as to be horizontally rotatable are meshed with the rack gears 3 provided in the rack/binion shafts 7 of the upper and lower rails 1.2, respectively, and pinion gears 5 are provided on the partition panel 4 side so as to be freely rotatable up and down about a horizontal axis. The runner 13 provided in the runner chamber 8 of the upper rail 1 is mounted on the runner chamber 8 on the surface 14 so as to be freely movable, and the partition panel 4
When running, pinion gear 5 is connected to rack gear 3.
The runner 13 is configured to transmit power on the surface 14 while the runners 13 and runners are in mesh with each other.

In this way, by making the partition panel 4 move once while the pinion gear 5 is meshing with the rack gear 3, the travel distance of the upper and lower parts of the partition panel 4 is made equal, and the partition panel 4 is prevented from shaking. It's like a monkey when you drive. In such a case, the load of the partition panel 4 is not applied to the meshing portion between the hook gear 3 and the pinion gear 5, so that the meshing state is not strained. The configuration will be explained below.

Figures 10 to 12 show a runner holding block]5, in which an L-shaped block body 17 has a mounting hole 16, and a vertical plate 18 of the block body 17 has a screw hole 19 formed at the upper end. A cylindrical portion 20 is provided. The runner holding block 15 is then attached to the upper corner of one end of the partition panel 4 with screws as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14.

Figures 16 and 17 (,) (1,) show the runner part 21.

A horizontal shaft 32 is inserted into the horizontal hole 31 of the casing 25, the strength member 26, and the holding block 29, and the roller-shaped runner 13 is rotatably inserted into the horizontal shaft 32.
4 is intended to stop the removal. A male thread 33 is formed on the lower outer surface of the outer shaft 28. Thus, the male thread 33 of the outer shaft 28 is inserted into the threaded hole 1 of the cylindrical portion 20 of the runner holding block 15.
The runner part 21 is connected to the runner retaining block 15 by screwing at 9. and the pinion shaft 22
is rotatably inserted into the vertical hole 34 of the holding block 29 and the V-cylindrical outer shaft 28. In such a case, the pinion shaft 22
(The outer race of the bearing 23 of Ill is fitted into the recess 35 of the holding block 29, so that the pinion shaft 22 can rotate smoothly, and the pinion gear 5 meshing with the rack gear 3 can smoothly rotate. This is done by adjusting the mesh rotation.

According to Unaomizo Aru, the partition panel 411Ill
The runner holding block 151 is connected to the runner holding block 151.The runner part 21 is screw-connected to the runner part 21, and the runner 13, which is rotatable, is mounted on the surface 14 of the runner support of the upper rail 1, and the runner part 21 is screwed to the runner part 21. There is a partition panel 4 on the pinion gear 5 side that can receive the load on the upper rail 1.
This prevents the load from loosening, thereby preventing strain on the anastomosis between the pinion gear 5 and the hook gear 3.

18 to 21 show the vivo throat receiver 36 and the L
The letter-shaped receiver is attached to the lower horizontal piece 38 of the main body 37 by providing a hole 39 therein. The receiver has a cylindrical part 42 in which an insertion hole 41 is formed in the lower part of the vertical piece 40 of the main body 37. As shown in FIG.
It is attached to the lower corner of one side end with a screw. A pinion gear 5 is rotatably attached to the lower rim of the pinion shaft 22, and sliders 43 for the lower rail 2 are rotatably provided on both sides of the pinion gear 5.

This slider 43 is equipped with a miniature bearing 44 to reduce sliding resistance with the lower rail 2! +! Let it perish.

Thus, the pinion shaft 22 is connected to the cylindrical portion 4 of the pivot receiver 36.
It is rotatably inserted into the insertion hole 41 of No. 2, and the pinion gear 5 is also meshed with the tooth gear 3 at the lower part. A spring 4 is inserted between the flange 45 of the binion shaft 22 and the cylindrical g42.
6, the binion shaft 22 descends under its own weight,
This is to prevent the sliding resistance from increasing with the lower rail 2.

The binion shaft 22 is divided into three parts. In other words, the upper binion +1l1 rotatably supported by the runner part 21
22a, a lower pinion (jli 22c) which is supported so as to be able to freely rotate twice, and an intermediate pinion shaft 22t+ that connects these.Then, an upper pinion 22a and an intermediate pinion 122b are connected. is the second
The connections are made as shown in FIGS. 5 to 27. That is, the lower end portion of the upper pinion shaft 22a and the upper end portion of the lower pinion shaft 22b are each chamfered in a half-moon shape. These chamfered portions 47 are slidably inserted into four semicircular holes formed by penetrating the ball joint 48. As shown in FIGS. 28 to 29, this ball joint 48 is held rotatably but immovably vertically by an upper presser 51 having a C-shaped holding portion 50. This upper presser 51 is attached to the side end surface of the partition panel 4 with screws. The middle portion of the intermediate binion 22b is also chamfered in a half-moon shape, and this chamfered portion 47 is connected to a holder 5 as shown in FIG.
2, and the holding body 52 is held by the upper presser 51 so as to be rotatable and immovable up and down. The lower end of the intermediate pinion shaft 221J and the upper end of the lower pinion shaft 22c are each shaped like a half moon to form an intermediate partition 53 and a semicircular hole 49, as shown in FIGS. 35 to 37. The semicircular hole 4 of the lower joint 54
Insert each chamfered portion 47 non-rotatably into the lower joint 5.
4 is held rotatably and immovably as shown in Figs. That's what I do. In this way, the upper, middle and lower binion sleeves 2
2a+221+, 22c can be slid up and down,
And they are connected so that they rotate together.

By purchasing the three pinion glazes 22a, 22b, and 22c so as to be able to rotate integrally, the upper and lower pinion gears 5 can be rotated at a constant speed, and the partition panel 4 can run even more smoothly. It is something that can be done.

In order to provide the runner part 21 having the above-mentioned pinion gear 5 and the pivot receiver 36 on the partition panel 4, a fourth
As shown in Figure 4, a mounting recess 56 is provided at one end of the partition panel 4 over the entire length of the upper and lower sides, and the runner portion 21, pivot receiver 36, and pinion bolt 22 are inserted into this mounting recess 56.

A connection recess 60 is formed at the other end of the partition panel 4, and by inserting the five elastic cushioning materials of the instant connection partition panel 4 into the connection recess 60, the partition panels 4 can be connected to each other without any gaps. This is to prevent light from leaking or wind from entering when the partitions are connected.

In this partition state in which the partition panels 4 of l'M4'& are in contact with each other, locking means (not shown) are provided in the upper and lower ends of the opposite end to the pinion gear 5 side. ) is pushed in, and locking means in the form of penetrations protrude from the upper and lower ends of the partition panel 4, respectively, to position the partition panel 4. , and when the panels 4 that separate the partitions 4 from each other are released from contact with each other and the respective locking means are released, the partitions 4 are in a movable state,
The partition panel 4 is opened and rotated using the pinion sleeve 22 as a rotation axis, and the partition is released as shown in FIG. 3.

[Effects of the Invention] In summary, the present invention provides ranks on one vertical wall of the upper rail and the lower rail over the entire length of the rail, and pinion gears are installed at the upper and lower ends of each of a plurality of partition panels so as to be horizontally rotatable. In other words, by meshing the hook gear and the pinion gear in the upper and lower portions of the partition panel, it is possible to equalize the amount of travel in the upper and lower portions of the partition panel, which prevents rattling in the travel. By effectively utilizing the rack and pinion for smooth running, in other words, the rack gear and pinion gear can be meshed at the top and bottom. By rotating the partition panel in this state, there is an advantage that rattling is eliminated during rotation, smooth rotation is performed, and the partition panel can be rotated smoothly.
