Moreover, it becomes an obstacle when cleaning the room.

When changing the layout of the room, it is difficult to change the layout because the length of the wiring and the length of the protector 6, etc. that covers the wiring, etc. are initially specified. Since telephone 3... is installed on desk 2..., when moving desk 2... for layout purposes, telephone 3... must be temporarily placed on the floor. It may be necessary to move the placed telephone 3 to another location depending on the circumstances of moving the desk 2, etc. When moving the desk 2, etc., the desk 2, etc. may get caught on the protector 6, making it impossible to move smoothly, and furthermore, there is a risk of damaging the protector 6. After the layout, new wiring must be done to match the layout, and the adhesive from the wiring base remains on the floor, making it dirty.

In view of the above circumstances, it is an object of this invention to increase the desk space, improve the efficiency of office processing, prevent people from tripping over the wiring, and prevent the wiring from being peeled off or damaged. Since the wiring part is not exposed on the floor, it looks good and does not get in the way when cleaning the room, and the layout can be changed to temporarily place a phone or change its position. It can be done efficiently and without damaging the wiring part, and there is no need for wiring work after layout.
The purpose is to ensure that no adhesive remains on the floor and that it is always kept clean.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a cord for electrically connecting a wiring duct attached to a ceiling surface and a telephone set below the duct, and a cord for electrically connecting a telephone set located below the duct; A lifting mechanism that supports and brakes the telephone so that it can be held at the adjusted height, electrically connects the wiring duct and the cord, and moves the telephone in a direction along the wiring duct. and means for attaching the elevating mechanism to the duct so as to obtain the same.

[For production]

If the installed telephone is suspended from the ceiling and can be moved along the wiring duct and adjusted in height, the desk surface can be used more widely and the wiring does not need to be routed above the floor. When changing the layout, place the phone in an upward position so that it does not interfere with the movement of desks, etc. (The work can be completed while maintaining the wiring condition. After changing the layout, move the phone to a position that matches the layout. All you have to do is lower it and complete the layout without any wiring work.
