Description

 The invention relates to devices designed to clarify public opinion on various issues, and can be used in polling stations.

 Stationary voting booths with a table are widely known, used at polling stations for confidential filling of the ballot by one voter. These wooden cabins have significant dimensions and weight, but since they are designed for one voter, their use is inefficient. To ensure a large capacity of the polling station, it is necessary to use several booths, which is economically disadvantageous. If there is one or two booths at the polling station, there are often large queues near the booths and many voters begin to fill out ballots outside the booths, which contradicts the election law. In addition, it is difficult to store such booths in between regular elections or referenda (GB 1155254 A, 06/18/1969).

 The present invention is based on the task of developing a light prefabricated voting booth, convenient for storage, easy to manufacture and assemble.

 The problem is solved in that in the voting booth with side walls and a table for filling out ballots according to the invention, each side wall is made of a team and consists of upper and lower panels, the lower panels being detachably connected to the front and rear panels to form a base on which to place a ballot-filling table, the tabletop of which is mounted on a frame resting on the base panel, and in the hole of which a vertical partition is inserted, detachably connected on both sides the upper side wall panels bonded together.

In the future, the invention is illustrated by a specific example of its implementation and the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 shows a general view of a voting booth;
FIG. 2 - 8 - elements for assembling the voting booth;
FIG. 9 is a diagram of an assembly of a voting booth.

 The voting booth according to the invention contains side walls 1 (Fig. 1), each of which is made by the national team and consists of upper and lower panels 2 (Fig. 1, 2) and 3 (Fig. 1, 3), respectively. Perforation line 4 is applied to each upper panel 2 and slots 5 and slit-like openings are made 6. Perforation lines 7 are applied to each lower panel 3 and slots 8 and openings 9 are made for their detachable connection with front and rear panels 10 (Fig. 4), identical and having grooves 11 and openings 12. The cabin also has a table 13 (Fig. 1) for filling out ballots, on the countertop 14 (Fig. 5) of which perforation lines 15 are applied and holes 16 and 17 are made. There are elements from the ends of the countertop 14 18 mounts in the form of protrusions. The table top 14 is mounted on the frame 19 (Fig. 9), formed by interconnected support elements 20 and 21 (Fig. 6) of different lengths, on which slots 22 and 23 are made, respectively, with longer support elements 21 having fastening elements 24. A vertical partition 25 (Fig. 1, 7) is inserted into the hole 17 of the tabletop 14, having slots 26 and side protrusions 27, as well as a central protrusion 28 with slots 29. The vertical partition 25 is detachably connected on both sides to the upper panels 2 of the side walls 1, fastened together by an additional coupler 30 (Fig. 1, 8), on which perforation lines 31 are applied, and grooves 32 are made at its ends.

 All elements of the cab are made by cutting from a five-layer corrugated cardboard.

 The assembly of the proposed voting booth is carried out in the following sequence.

 First, for the table 13, the frame 19 is assembled (Fig. 9A) from the supporting elements 20 and 21, inserting them into the corresponding slots 22 and 23. The assembled frame 19 is installed in a vertical position so that the fastening elements 24 are at the bottom. Then, the countertop 14 is superimposed on the frame 19 (Fig. 9B). The frame 19 provides rigidity to the tabletop 13. After that, the lower two panels 3 of the side walls 1 are folded along the perforation lines 7 and connected to the front and rear panels 10 to form a base 33 (Fig. 9B), which is installed on horizontal bent sections 34 of the lower panels 3. The specified assembly starts from the bottom. On the assembled cab base 33, a frame 19 with a table top 14 is installed on top (Fig. 9G), into the hole 17 of which the partition 25 is inserted with the central protrusion 28. Then the upper panels 2 of the side walls 1 are bent along the line 4 of the perforation and installed on both sides of the partition 25, inserting the side projections 27 of the partition into the corresponding (vertically made) slit-like openings 6 of the upper panels 2. An additional screed 30 is installed on top of the assembled cab, which is inserted into the corresponding (horizontally made) openings 6 top panels 2 and slots 26 of the partition 25.

 A vertically mounted partition 25 divides the cabin into two compartments, isolated from each other and ensuring the filling of ballots by two voters at the same time, thereby reducing the voting time. The cabin is easy to assemble and disassemble, takes up little space during storage and transportation, has a small weight, which does not affect the stability and strength of the product. It is easily disposed of if necessary.
