A top plate is attached to the support beams attached to the opposing surface of the desk or the legs of the desk and the opposing surface of the side wall, and the power cord and communication cables are housed in a duct housing that continues to the side. Become
OA desk equipment has already been proposed in Japanese Patent Application No. 1984-52684.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention The present application provides a duct casing for wiring that is effective for leading out and taking in and out communication cable power cords, etc. in the duct casing of the desk device having the above-mentioned configuration.

Means for Solving the Problems Therefore, the present application has a hollow duct housing having an open top surface and an inlet/outlet portion at the upper side surface, and a plurality of holding members disposed in the longitudinal direction supported by the hollow duct housing. At the same time, the distance between the inner side surfaces and the distance between the lower surface and the upper surface of the front and rear wall plates of the duct housing is determined on the opposing inner side surfaces and lower surfaces of the pair of cover pieces. The present invention provides a wiring duct housing characterized in that elongated closing members made of a soft material are fixed via fixings so as to open each case.

Function When leading out communication cables etc. stored in the duct housing, it is necessary to connect between the closing member provided on the inner side surface of the cover piece or between the closing member provided on the surface of the cover piece and the wall. It is derived from between the top surface of the plate.

Then, only the closing member of the lead-out portion is depressed,
Others remain closed.
