Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to an office desk used for various types of office processing, and more particularly to a continuously assembled office desk.

``Prior art'' Office desks in general use today differ to a greater or lesser extent in their overall size, number of extractors, functions, etc., but basically all office desks are Since it is an integrated structure that is independent from others, when a continuous line of desks is required for business processing, normally individual office desks are arranged consecutively on the desired line. is the current situation.

However, in the case of such a continuous arrangement of independent desks,
Not only does it require a lot of installation space, but even if the office desks are arranged continuously on the floor, the function of each office desk that makes up the line is limited.
Since this has already been determined at the time of each production, it may become necessary to change the functions of individual desks or change part of the arrangement due to subsequent changes in the office processing environment or office processing system. However, these needs could not be easily met immediately.

Therefore, the applicant has developed a frame structure for a continuous desk using only vertical aggregates erected at regular intervals on the floor and two horizontal aggregates, upper and lower, that sequentially connect adjacent vertical aggregates. At the same time, a plurality of pairs of hook holes are bored in the vertical direction on one side of each vertical aggregate, and the height of the top plate is adjusted between adjacent vertical aggregates through support arms hooked into one of the hook holes. The present invention provides a continuous desk structure in which the cabinet is supported freely, a suspension rail part is provided on the upper horizontal aggregate, and a cabinet is suspended from the rail part so as to be movable left and right (Utility Model No. 132524 of 1983). (see publication).

``Problems to be Solved by the Invention'' Therefore, with this continuous desk structure, there is no need to arrange individual office desks in succession as in the past, so the installation space can be used effectively. Simply connect the vertical aggregates with the upper and lower horizontal aggregates, hook the base of the support arm into the hook hole of each vertical aggregate, and place the end of the top plate on the support arm. A continuous table line can be easily obtained, and by changing the hook position of the support arm, the height of the top plate supported between two vertical aggregates can be adjusted freely, or the height of the top plate can be adjusted as needed. Since the hanging position of the cabinet can be changed freely below the board, compared to the past, it has become possible to respond to changes in the office processing environment, office processing system, etc. to some extent.

However, in this continuous desk structure, although it is possible to freely adjust the height of the top plate, the height adjustment can only be performed on the entire top plate supported between two vertical aggregates. It is structurally impossible to separate any part of the top plate supported between vertical aggregates and support a part of the top plate with a difference in level, or to completely remove a part of the top plate. It was possible.

In contrast, modern office processing is rapidly becoming OA-based, and various types of OA equipment with different heights are placed on a part of the top board, or large OA devices are placed on the floor in the same line as the top board. Despite the demand for installing equipment, it is not enough to quickly meet such demands by simply using the entire top plate supported between two vertical aggregates as in the conventional continuous desk structure mentioned above. Not only was it not possible to do so, but it was also incapable of responding immediately to the various changes in administrative processing expected in the future.

Furthermore, when constructing a continuous desk line, there is a need to build each row facing each other in addition to the case where each row is continuous, but the conventional continuous desk structure only has one row. From this point of view, it was not possible to respond quickly enough to the diverse changes in administrative processing expected in the future.

"Means for Solving the Problems" The present invention was developed to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems all at once. The frame structure of the desk is made up of two upper and lower horizontal aggregates that sequentially connect adjacent main vertical aggregates, and a pair of hooks are installed in the vertical direction on one side of each of the main vertical aggregates. Multiple stages of holes are drilled between the adjacent main vertical aggregates, and the top plate is supported in a height-adjustable manner through support arms that are hooked into the hook holes, and a suspension rail is attached to the upper horizontal aggregate. Assuming a continuous assembly type office desk with a structure in which a hanging body is suspended from the rail part so as to be movable from side to side,
Pairs of hook holes are drilled in multiple stages not only on one side of each main vertical aggregate but also on the other side opposite to the one side in the vertical direction, and through support arms hooked to the hook holes,
The top plate is supported on the other side of the main vertical aggregate in a height-adjustable manner, and one or more auxiliary vertical aggregates are removably disposed between adjacent main vertical aggregates, The auxiliary vertical aggregate has a pair of hook holes drilled in the vertical direction on one side of itself, corresponding to the hook holes on both sides of the main vertical aggregate at the same positions, and a tip bent upward on the upper side of the other side. An upper engaging piece is provided which is bent to engage with the upper horizontal aggregate, and lower engaging pieces whose tips are bent downward and engaged with the lower horizontal aggregate are provided at the lower part of the other side, respectively. The engaging pieces are engaged with the corresponding horizontal aggregates, and the auxiliary vertical aggregates are arranged at arbitrary locations between the main vertical aggregates from one side and the other side, and the auxiliary vertical aggregates and the main By using the hook holes between vertical aggregates or auxiliary vertical aggregates,
A structure was adopted in which the top plates supported on both sides of the main vertical aggregate can be separated and supported at arbitrary locations.

``Function'' Therefore, in the present invention, the top plate can be supported on both sides of the main vertical aggregate so as to be height-adjustable, facing each other through the support arms that are hooked into the hook holes on both sides. Alternatively, the upper and lower engagement pieces are engaged with the upper and lower horizontal aggregates, and the auxiliary vertical aggregates are arranged at arbitrary locations between the main vertical aggregates from one side and the other side. If you use the hook holes between the aggregate and the main vertical aggregate or the auxiliary vertical aggregate and hook the supporting arms into each hook hole,
At any point between the main vertical aggregates, as well as at any point beyond the main vertical aggregates, part of the top plate on both sides of the main vertical aggregate is separated, and a part of the top plate is stepped. Since the top plate can be supported or only a portion of the top plate can be completely removed, it is possible to respond quickly to various changes in the business processing environment or business processing system, especially with the introduction of office automation.

"Example" The present invention will be described in detail below based on an illustrative example.

The continuous assembly type office desk according to this embodiment is also shown in Fig. 1.
As shown in Figure 2, main vertical aggregates 1 are erected on the floor at regular intervals, and upper horizontal aggregates 2 and lower horizontal aggregates connect the adjacent main vertical aggregates 1, 1 in sequence. 3, the upper and lower horizontal aggregates 2, 3 and the two main vertical aggregates 1, 1 constitute a unit frame structure, and by continuing the unit frame structure, a continuous desk frame is created. Reinforcement legs 4 are provided at the lower end of each main vertical aggregate 1 to form the structure.
The main vertical aggregate 1 is erected on the floor surface via the reinforcing legs 4, and a plurality of pairs of hook holes 5 are bored in the upper and lower directions of one side of the frame, and the pairs of hook holes By hooking the base of the support arm 6 to one of the supports 5 and placing the ends of the top plate 7 on the support arms 6,
A top plate 7 is supported between adjacent main vertical aggregates 1, 1 so as to be adjustable in height.

The feature is that multiple pairs of hook holes 5 are bored not only in one side of each main vertical aggregate 1 but also in the vertical direction of the other side opposite to the one side. The top plate 7 is attached via the hooking support arm 6.
is configured to be supported on the other side between the main longitudinal aggregates 1 in a height-adjustable manner, and one or more auxiliary longitudinal aggregates 8 are removably disposed between the adjacent main longitudinal aggregates 1, 1.
It consists in having the following.

In this embodiment, as shown in the figure, a top plate 7 is supported on both sides of the main vertical aggregate 1 so that its height can be adjusted freely.
The fixed top plate part 7', which is separate from the
When the fixed top plate part 7' and the top plates 7, 7 on both sides are fixed in order between the upper end surfaces and in the highest supported state,
The top plate 7 is arranged in a continuous manner to provide as wide a top space as possible, and the top plate 7 can be used in common even if it is supported at any position.

Further, as shown in the figure, each of the auxiliary vertical aggregates 8 has a corresponding pair of hook holes 5 bored in the vertical direction on one side thereof at the same position as each of the hook holes 5 bored on both sides of each of the main vertical aggregates 1. A horizontal L-shaped upper engaging piece 11A having a hook hole 9 bored therein and having a tip 11a bent upward on the other side of itself to engage with the back surface of the upper horizontal aggregate 2.
A lower engagement piece 11B is provided at the lower part of the other side, and the tip 11b is bent downward to engage with the back surface of the lower horizontal aggregate 3.
By providing the engaging pieces 11A and 11B with the corresponding horizontal aggregates 2 and 3, and tightening and fixing them with the screws 12, the auxiliary vertical aggregates 8 can be attached with an extremely simple operation. One or more of them shall be placed at any location between the adjacent main longitudinal aggregates 1, 1 from one side and the other side as necessary.

The reinforcing leg 4 is also attached to the lower end of the auxiliary vertical aggregate 8.
The same reinforcing legs 10 as above are provided, and support arms 6 are provided in the hook holes 9 of each pair of the auxiliary longitudinal beams 8 as well.
Needless to say, hook the base of the Therefore, as shown in FIG. It becomes possible to optionally support the end of the top plate 7 between the aggregates 1 and 1 or beyond the main vertical aggregate 1.

Furthermore, while a suspension rail portion 13 is fixedly installed on the entire lower surface of each upper horizontal aggregate 2 in parallel with the horizontal aggregate 2,
An engaging portion 15 is provided on the upper back side of the cabinet 14, which has multiple drawers, and as shown in FIG. 3, by engaging the engaging portion 15 with the rail portion 13, the cabinet 14 can be moved left and right. At the same time, a slider 16 that slides in contact with the side surface of the lower horizontal aggregate 3 is provided at the lower end of the back surface of the cabinet 14 to smoothly guide the horizontal movement of the cabinet 14 suspended in the above state. , and is configured to maintain a horizontal posture when suspended. Moreover, the above-mentioned hanging rail part 1
3 is also suspended from a shelf 17 having an engaging portion 18 at the upper end of its back surface, and the shelf 17 has a slider abutting against the side surface of the lower horizontal aggregate 3 at the lower end of its back surface. Alternatively, protrusions 19 may be provided to maintain smooth horizontal movement and horizontal posture of the shelf 17, and to maintain the shelf 17 in a horizontal position.
Place a case/basket 20 for storing and organizing documents or articles, etc. on the shelf board 17a of No. 7, or place documents or articles (including small devices) directly on the shelf board 17a of The structure is such that space can be used effectively.

In addition, a top plate 7 is supported between each main vertical aggregate 1 and 1.
has a drawer 21 attached to its lower surface, and the specific mounting structure of the drawer 21 is as shown in the figure, two rails 22a and 22b are fixedly attached to the lower surface of each top plate 7, and each rail A support body 24 having rollers 23a and 23b that slide while engaging with each rail is supported on 22a and 22b so as to be movable left and right, and the support body 2
4, the drawer 21 is supported so that it can move forward and backward,
At least the drawer 21 can be used at any position between the main vertical aggregates 1, 1.

Therefore, when the office desk with the above configuration is assembled continuously on the floor, the hook position of the support arm 6 with respect to the hook hole 5 of the main vertical frame 1 must be selected as appropriate depending on, for example, the user's physique. The heights of the top plates 7, 7 supported on both sides between the main vertical aggregates 1, 1 can be adjusted respectively, and the drawers 21 attached directly below the top plates 7 on both sides and the rails 13 can be suspended. It becomes possible to move the installed cabinet 14 and shelf 17 to optimal positions suitable for office processing.

Under such basic conditions of use, in response to changes in the office processing environment or office processing system due to mechanization, two bars are installed to place OA equipment or other fixtures necessary for office processing. main vertical aggregate 1,
When it becomes necessary to step-support a part of the top plate 7 supported between two spaces from another part, or to install large equipment etc. on the floor on the same line as the top plate 7, the top plate 7 may be If it becomes necessary to completely remove a part of 7 from other parts, it is possible to take measures as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.

That is, when supporting a part of the top plate 7 on both sides with a step, as shown in the figure, the above-mentioned upper and lower engaging pieces 11
A, 11B and screws 12, two auxiliary vertical aggregates 8 are arranged on both sides of that part, or if the main vertical aggregate 1 is also used, one auxiliary vertical aggregate 8
Select the inner hook holes 9, 9 between the auxiliary longitudinal aggregates 8 or the inner hook holes 9 of the auxiliary longitudinal aggregates 8 and the inner hook holes 5 in the main longitudinal aggregate 1, and then Hook the support arm 6 into the hole, and remove both support arms 6,
If another top plate 7a cut to a predetermined size is placed on 6, the height of the device 25 to be placed will vary.
Only the other top plate 7a is supported by steps on both sides.

In addition, each adjacent end of the top plate 7, which is separated from another top plate 7a and exists on both sides, is inserted into the outer hook hole 9 or 5 of the auxiliary vertical aggregate 8 or the main vertical aggregate 1 at the desired height. By means of the support arms 6, 6, which are hooked with
Needless to say, it will be supported at the same level as before.

Furthermore, even with the same partial step support, if it becomes necessary to support the top plate vertically in parallel with the steps, one top plate 7 can be attached to the main vertical aggregate 1 as shown in Fig. 4B. etc., and then place two auxiliary vertical beams 8 at the required locations, and hook the support arms 6 into the lower hook holes 9 of each of the auxiliary vertical beams 8. It is also possible to support another top plate 7a below the top plate 7 in parallel. or,
Even in this embodiment, the entire top plate 7 supported on both sides between the two main vertical aggregates 1, 1 is compared to the top plate 7 supported between the other main vertical aggregates 1, 1. Needless to say, it can support steps.

Next, if you want to completely remove a part of the top plate 7,
Similarly to the above, two auxiliary vertical aggregates 8 are arranged on both sides of the removed part, or if the main longitudinal aggregate 1 is also used, only one auxiliary vertical aggregate 8 is arranged. , by hooking the support arms 6 only into the outer hook holes 9 or 5, and placing the ends of the top plates 7, 7 cut to a predetermined size on each of the support arms 6, each of the top plates 7, 7 can be attached. The boards 7, 7 are separated and supported at the same height as before, and a space S for installing equipment can be easily defined between the separated top boards 7, 7, so that the space S can be used for office work. Large equipment that can handle processing 26
etc. can be easily installed.

Also, even in such a case, as shown in FIG. By hooking up the support arm 6 and placing the short top plate 7a on the support arm 6, it becomes possible to separately install the equipment 26 on both sides of the top plate 7a.
In addition, even in this example, the two main longitudinal aggregates 1, 1
Needless to say, it is possible to remove the entire top plate 7 supported on both sides.

Furthermore, the continuous line of the desk is not only made in a straight line as shown in Figure 5A, but also by changing the position of the main vertical aggregate 1 relative to the floor surface as shown in Figure 5B. It is also possible to have a continuous L-shape or U-shape, but especially in this case, as shown in the figure, one auxiliary vertical beam 8 is arranged at the L-shaped corner part, and the auxiliary vertical beam By hooking the support arm 6 into the pair of hook holes 9, 9 of the material 8, there is an advantage that the end portions of the top plates 7, 7 can be supported continuously at the corner portions without any hindrance. Incidentally, in this case, the hook holes 5 of the main vertical aggregate 1 installed upright at the corner portions shall be drilled not on the opposing surfaces but on each of the two adjacent side surfaces.

``Effects of the Invention'' As described above, the present invention provides a method in which a plurality of pairs of hook holes are bored not only in one side of each main vertical aggregate but also in the vertical direction of the other side opposite to the one side, and the hook holes are The feature is that the top plate is supported on the other side of the main vertical aggregate in a height-adjustable manner via support arms hooked into holes, so it has an extremely simple structure and the top plate is continuous. We are now able to offer a continuous assembly type office desk that faces each other.

Moreover, on the premise of such a structure where the top plates face each other, the auxiliary vertical aggregate is provided with a pair of corresponding hook holes at the same positions as the hook holes on both sides of the main vertical aggregate. Via the upper and lower engagement pieces provided on the sides, it is arranged from one side and the other side at any location between the main vertical aggregates, and the auxiliary vertical aggregates and the main vertical aggregates or the auxiliary vertical aggregates are connected to each other. The structure is characterized in that the top plates supported on both sides of the main vertical aggregate can be separated and supported at arbitrary points by using the hook holes in the top plate. Since it is possible to support a step or to completely remove only a portion of the top plate, it is now possible to respond quickly to various changes in the office processing environment or system, especially with the introduction of office automation.

In addition, the auxiliary vertical aggregate that enables the step support and removal of a part of the top plate can be placed between two main vertical aggregates by simply engaging its own engagement piece with the corresponding horizontal aggregate. Not only does this not place any burden on work efficiency, but if used organically, it can be used to create continuous ceilings at the corners of a continuous L-shaped or U-shaped desk line. Flexibility such as being able to easily support the edges of the plate can also be achieved.
