Description

Description Simple partition Technical field

The present invention relates to a simple partition that can easily and freely partition a room by being interconnected. Background art

Examples of movable simple partitions that can freely partition offices, reception rooms, and the like are shown in FIGS. 24 and 25, for example. As shown in the figure, the simple partition 50 is provided with a frame 52 whose outer peripheral surface is curved in an arc shape at each of the left and right ends of the main body panel 51, and the outer peripheral surface of one frame 52. Has one fastener element 53 a of a hook-and-loop fastener 53 whose surface is formed in a loop shape, and has a hook-shaped surface on the outer peripheral surface of the other frame 52. The other fastener element 5 3b of the hook-and-loop fastener 53 is attached.

As described above, the simple partition 50 configured as described above is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the frame 52 in which the fastener elements 53a and 53b constituting the surface fastener 53 project in an arc shape. 25, as shown in FIG. 25, the fastener elements 5 3a and 5 3b of the hook-and-loop fastener 53 attached to the left and right frames 52 can be optionally engaged with each other. Can be freely connected at different angles.

However, since the hook-and-loop fastener 53 is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the arc-shaped curved frame 52, one of the two Since the snubber element 53a and the other fastener element 53b come into line contact with each other, there is a problem that the joining force is weak and the connected simple partitions 50 are easily separated from each other.

In order to improve the weakness of the joining force, the fastener element is formed by forming the outer peripheral surface of the frame 52 into a square shape as shown in a simplified partition 50a shown in FIG. It is conceivable that 53 a and 53 b are brought into surface contact with each other.However, if such a configuration is adopted, conversely, the simple partitions 50 a adjacent to each other cannot be connected at an arbitrary angle. There is a problem when it becomes difficult to freely partition the room.

In the simple partition 50, 50a using such a hook-and-loop fastener 53 as a connecting means, one fastener element 53 having a hook-shaped surface is attached to one side not connected. In such a case, clothes may be exposed to the fastener element 5 3b by touching the hook-shaped fastener element 5 3b in such a case. In the worst case, there are also problems such as damage to clothing.

In addition, since the simple partitions 50 and 50a connected by the hook-and-loop fastener 53 cannot change the connection angle, when the connection angle is changed, the relationship between the fastener elements 53a and 53b is increased. Labor must be performed, such as once releasing the connection and reconnecting at a predetermined angle. Therefore, according to the present invention, a sufficient joining force can be ensured, and furthermore, the clothes can be connected at an arbitrary angle without being damaged, and the angle can be freely changed in the connected state. The purpose is to provide a simple partition that can be used. Disclosure of the invention

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a tape-shaped base fabric having a number of One of the fastener elements provided with the slider in a slide fastener comprising a pair of fastener elements on which a lens is mounted, and a slider that meshes the elements of the two fastener elements with each other. A simple partition which is attached to one side end of the main body and has the other fastener element not provided with the slider attached to the other side end of the main body. It is.

As described above, in this simple partition, the one fastener element provided with the slider and the other fastener element not provided with the slider are attached to both side ends of the main body, respectively. The fastener element having a slider in one simple partition to be connected and the fastener element not having a slider in the other simple partition are only meshed with the element by sliding the slider. Thus, the connection can be easily and securely performed.

In addition, since the slide fastener is used as the connecting means, once it is connected, it does not come off, and like the conventional simple partition using the hook-and-loop fastener as the connecting means, the clothes are caught or the clothes are damaged. There is no risk of giving.

In addition, since the slide fastener is used as the connecting means, the connecting angle is not restricted between the simple partitions to be connected, and the force and the connecting angle can be freely adjusted in the connected state. You can change it. Therefore, unlike the conventional simple partition connected by the hook-and-loop fastener, it is also possible to open and close one of the connected simple partitions like a door.

In particular, if both the one fastener element provided with the slider and the other fastener element not provided with the slider are respectively attached to both end portions of the main body, only two pieces are provided. Simple partition of each other In addition to the connection, it is possible to connect a plurality of simple partitions to one side end of one simple partition, and the effect of widening the variation of dividing the room can be obtained.

In addition, by sliding the slider upward from below, the elements mesh with each other between the fastener elements, and by sliding the slider downward from above, the mesh between the elements is released. In such a case, even if the heights of the adjacent simple partitions are different from each other, they can be securely connected without any trouble.

Further, in the case where the cover members covering the fastener elements respectively attached to both side ends of the main body are detachably mounted, the cover members are attached to the unconnected side ends. Since the fastener element can be concealed by the cover member, the effect that the appearance is not impaired by the unused slide fastener can be obtained. In addition, in the case where the main body part includes a frame and a bag-shaped main body cover attached to the frame, and the fastener element is attached to the main body cover, In addition to reducing the weight of the simple partition as a whole, the fastener element can be easily attached, and when the cover member becomes dirty, it can be easily washed.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, the simple partition 1 is composed of a main body 2 composed of a frame 10 and a main body cover 20 mounted on the frame 10, and both ends of the main body 2. And connecting means 3 attached to each part.

As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the frame 10 includes a pair of left and right vertical frames 11 formed by a resin coating pipe, and the vertical frame 11. Upper and lower horizontal frames 12 formed by extruded aluminum material connected at the upper end and lower end respectively.Each horizontal frame 12 has a through hole formed in the vertical frame 11. 1 Insert through 1a The fixed screw 13 is screwed into the screw holes 12a formed on both end faces and tightened to be connected to the vertical frame 11. A vertical frame 11 formed by a resin coating pipe has a resin cap 14 fitted at the upper end thereof, and an adjuster 15 for height adjustment mounted at the lower end thereof. In the horizontal frame # 2, a shallow groove 12b and a deep groove 12c extending in the longitudinal direction are formed on the upper end surface and the lower end surface.

The main body cover 20 is sewn in a bag shape using a stretchable knitted fabric, and has a width direction as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. A pair of locking plates 21 made of polypropylene are attached so as to stand up from the lower edge over substantially the entire length of the bracket.

Therefore, when attaching the main body cover 20 to the frame 10, as shown in FIG. 12, while pulling the stretchable knitted fabric downward, the pair of locking plates 21 are connected to the frame 10. When the main unit cover 20 is inserted into the deep groove 1 2c of the lower horizontal frame 12 at 0, the main unit cover 20 is attached in close contact with the frame 10 and the main unit cover 20 moves up against the frame 10. Will be blocked. As shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the connecting means 3 comprises a pair of fastener elements 31 each having a large number of elements 31b mounted on a tape-shaped base cloth 31a. , Formed of a slide fastener composed of a slider 32 that meshes the elements 31b of the two fastener elements 31 with each other, and one of the fastener elements 31 provided with the slider 32 and The other fastener element 31 having no slider is sewn to both ends of the body cover 20 at its base cloth 31a. One fastener element 31 provided with the slider 32 and the other fastener element 31 provided with no slider are connected to one end of the main body 2 and the other. The slider and the side end are arranged in a mutually inverted state. By sliding the slider 32 upward from the bottom, the elements 3 1b of the fastener element 3〗 mesh with each other and the slider 3 2 The two fastener elements 31 are attached to the main body 2 so that the engagement between the elements 31b is released by sliding the element 32 downward from above.

Accordingly, the element 31b of the one fastener element 31 provided with the slider 32 attached to one end of one of the simple partitions 1 to be connected, and the other simple partition〗 The element 31b of the other fastener element 31 having no slider attached to the other end thereof is engaged only by sliding the slider 32, for example. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 14, one or a plurality of simple partitions 1 can be easily connected.

As shown in FIG. 15, the simple partition 1 includes connecting means 3 attached to both side ends of the main body cover 20, that is, a fastener element 31 having a slider 32 and a slider. A cover member 40 for concealing the unfastened fastener element 31 is detachably mounted.

As shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the cover member 40 includes a cylindrical end cover 41 and an end cap 42 fitted to the upper end of the end cover 41. On the flat side inside the end cover 41, a slit 4 is provided over the entire length so that the base cloth 31 a of the fastener element 3 できる can be inserted. 1a is formed.Therefore, the end cover 41 with the end cap 42 fitted to the upper end is slipped from the upper end of the fastener element 331 to its base cloth 31a. 4 Insert the element 3 into the end cover 4 1 1 When the part b is inserted, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the upper ends of the fastener elements 3 1 and 3 1 abut the end cap 42 and the fastener elements 3 、 and 3 1 and the slider 32 are mounted in a substantially concealed state. As shown in Fig. 19, the simple partitioning rib 1 formed as described above is simply connected in series, and as shown in Figs. 20 and 21, a cross-shaped or T-shaped By connecting them radially as shown in Fig. 22, the room can be partitioned freely.

In addition, even when the simple partition 1 is used alone or when a plurality of the simple partitions 1 are connected, sufficient independence stability cannot be ensured depending on the use mode. In such a case, for example, as shown in FIGS. 19 to 21, if necessary, the leg base 16 may be connected to the vertical frame 11 via the adjuster 15. It may be attached as appropriate.

As described above, in this simple partition 1, the connecting means 3 attached to both end portions of the main body 2 are formed by the slide fastener, so that the plurality of simple partitions 1 can be easily and reliably connected. It does not come off once it is connected, and there is no danger of the clothes getting caught or damaging the clothes as in the conventional simple partition using hook-and-loop fasteners as the connecting means.

In addition, since the slide fastener is used as the connecting means 3, the connecting angle is not restricted between the simple partitions 1 to be connected, and the connecting angle can be freely changed in the connected state. Therefore, unlike the conventional simple partition connected by the hook-and-loop fastener, for example, as shown in FIG. 23, four connected simple partitions 1 are sequentially bent at the connection portion. To create a rectangular closed space It is also possible to open and close one simple partition 1 at one end as a door. When the simple partition 1 is used as a door as described above, it must be moved on the floor. The adjuster function (high) is used instead of the adjuster〗 5 at the tip end of the simple partition 1 used as a door. It is desirable to install a caster equipped with a height adjustment function.

In this simple partition 1, both the fastener element 31 with the slider 32 and the fastener element 31 without the slider are attached to both end portions of the main body 2, respectively. As shown in the figure, not only are a plurality of simple partitions 1 connected in series, but as shown in FIGS. 20 to 22, a plurality of simple partitions 1 are attached to one side end of one simple partition 1. The partition 1 can be connected, and the effect of increasing the variability that partitions the room can be obtained.

In addition, this simple partition 1 slides the slider 3 2 from the bottom to the upper side so that the elements 3 1 b of the fastener elements 3 1 mesh with each other, and the slider 3 2 from the top to the lower side. When the height of adjacent simple partitions 1 is different, that is, the total length of one fastener element 31 is different from each other. Even in this case, since the lower ends of both fastener elements 31 always coincide with each other, they can be securely connected without any trouble.

Further, as described above, the simple partition 1 is configured such that the cover members 40 that cover the fastener elements 31 attached to both side ends of the main body 2 are detachably attached. Therefore, if the fastener element 31 not used for connection is concealed by the cover member 40, the appearance of the simple partition 1 is impaired by the presence of the fastener element 31 not used for connection. Nothing is done.

In addition, in this simple partition 1, the main body 2 has a frame〗 0 and And a zipper element 3 1 as a connecting means 3 attached to the body cover 20, so that the simple partition 1 as a whole As a result, the fastener element 31 can be easily attached, and when the main body cover 20 becomes dirty, it can be removed from the frame 10 and washed easily.

In the above-described embodiment, the upper and lower two horizontal frames 12 constituting the frame # 0 are formed of extruded aluminum. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Can be formed by a resin-coated pipe similarly to the pair of vertical frames 11 Also, in the above-described embodiment, the inside of the frame 10 in the main body 2 is a complete space, Attach the plate material such as a resin panel or cardboard to the frame 10 with the upper and lower ends inserted into the deep groove 12c of the upper horizontal frame 12 and the shallow groove 12c of the lower horizontal frame 12. It is also possible.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, both the one fastener element 31 provided with the slider 32 and the other fastener element 31 not provided with the slider are attached to both side ends of the main body 2 respectively. However, the present invention is not limited to this. If a plurality of simple partitions are to be connected in series, one fastener element having a slider at one end of the main body portion is connected to the other side of the main body portion. It is only necessary to attach the other fastener element without a slider at the end, and it is also possible to attach three or more fastener elements at one end and the other end of the main body, respectively. is there.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, one fastener element 31 provided with the slider 32 and the other fastener element 31 provided with no slider include: A force that is arranged in a state where the one end and the other end of the main body 2 are reversed from each other.However, the present invention is not limited to this.In particular, the same design is applied to both front and back surfaces of the main body cover 20. In this case, it is not necessary to reverse the arrangement of the fastener element 31 between the one end of the main body 2 and the other end. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the sliders 3 2 are slid from the bottom to the top so that the simple partitions having different heights can be connected to each other, so that the mutual elements 3 1 between the fastener elements 3 1 are formed. The two fastener elements 31 are attached to the main body 2 so that the teeth of the elements 31b are released by sliding the slider 32 from the top to the bottom, by engaging the b with each other. However, when connecting the simple partitions 1 of the same height, it goes without saying that the fastener element 31 may be mounted upside down.

In the above-described embodiment, the main body 2 is formed by the frame 10 and the bag-shaped main body cover 20 attached to the frame 10. However, the present invention is not limited to this. It is also possible to attach connecting means formed by slide fasteners to both side ends of the main body. Industrial applicability

As described above, the simple partition according to the present invention is useful for partitioning a room where the layout is frequently changed, and is particularly suitable for partially moving the installed simple partition. ing.
