Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention allows a large number of partition elements to run freely on rails in an opening and to be able to open and close by rotating approximately orthogonally to the rails via a vertical axis. Regarding the built-in partition device, in detail, it is a device that allows the partition body to run smoothly on the rail, but also allows the partition body to open and close smoothly in a direction approximately perpendicular to the rail. In addition, it also prevents the partition element body from collapsing in the rotational opening position substantially perpendicular to the rail, and simplifies the temporary holding configuration for rotating the partition element body to open and close it, and the position of the temporary holding position. The present invention relates to a technology that facilitates setting and changing its position.

[Background Art] Conventionally, in a partition device in which a large number of partition elements are installed in an opening so that they can run freely on rails and can be rotated to open and close approximately orthogonally to the rails via a vertical axis, However, it is difficult to smoothly open and close the partition body, which can now run freely, so that it is approximately perpendicular to the rail, and it is difficult to open and close the partition body that can be rotated approximately perpendicularly to the rail in a stable manner. There was a problem that it was difficult to maintain the
Therefore, it is possible to make the partition body rotate open and close smoothly by making a pin protrude from the upper end of the partition body, and by forming a hole or recess on the rail side and inserting the pin into the hole in the rail. However, in this configuration in which the pins are inserted into the holes, etc., there is a problem in that the pins, holes, etc. must be released from each other when the partition element is moved, which is troublesome. To solve this problem, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61
- Although something like the one disclosed in Publication No. 183592 has been proposed, the temporary holding structure for rotating the partition body to open and close it is complicated, and it is difficult to set the rotation opening/closing position and change the position. The problem was that it was a hassle.

[Purpose of the invention] The present invention was made in view of the above problems, and its purpose is to make the partition element run smoothly on the rails, while still allowing the partition element to run smoothly on the rail. It is possible to smoothly open and close the partition body by rotating it in a direction substantially perpendicular to the rail, without any trouble, and also to stably maintain the rotationally open position of the partition element body. It is an object of the present invention to provide a partition device that simplifies the temporary holding structure for rotating and opening and closing a partition element body, and also allows easy setting and changing of the temporary holding position.

[Disclosure of the invention] The partitioning device of the present invention allows a large number of partitioning elements 1 to run freely on rails 5 at openings 2, and to rotate open and close approximately perpendicularly to the rails 5 via vertical shafts 3. The partition device is freely built in, and a disc-shaped rotating runner 10a that is concentric with the vertical axis 3 and rotates in a horizontal plane is provided at the upper end of the partition element 1. 10a
is inserted into the upper rail 5 so as to be freely movable, and a spring piece 24 is attached to the opposing vertical piece 25 of the holding body 23 having a U-shaped cross section.
are provided facing each other, and the spacing between the opposing spring pieces 24 is made shorter than the diameter of the rotation runner 10a, and the plurality of holders 23 are inserted in the end of the upper rail 5 in abutting state, and the adjacent spring pieces 24 are The above object is achieved by configuring the rotating runner 10a to be temporarily held between the holders 23 and between the spring pieces 24 of each holder 23.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below based on the drawings.

A rail 5 is attached to the upper edge of the opening 2 in the room. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, this rail 5 has an upper running guide groove 7 and a lower running guide groove 8 formed vertically by partitions 6. A stop 9 is suspended from the rear edge of the rail 5 over the entire length. At the upper end of the partition element 1, as shown in FIG. 6, a tall hanging runner 10 and a short running runner 11 as a rotating runner 10a are respectively attached to a runner shaft 12 so as to be horizontally rotatable.
By inserting the hanging runner 10 into the upper running guide groove 7 and inserting the running runner 11 into the lower running guide groove 8, a large number of partition elements 1 are attached to the rail 5.
It is suspended so that it can be moved freely. Note that the runner axis 12 of the hanging runner 10 is the vertical axis 3 in the present invention.

The lower part of the partition element 1 has an approximately U shape that is open at the top.
A letter-shaped grounding frame 13 is inserted so that it can be raised and lowered,
A flooring cushion 15 is attached to a hanging member 14 hanging from this flooring frame 13, and by lowering the flooring frame 13, the flooring cushion 1
5 is brought into elastic contact with the floor surface 16, so that no gap is created between the partition element body 1 and the floor surface 16.

A shaft 17, which is an example of the vertical shaft 3, is suspended from a hanging member 14 substantially directly below the hanging runner 10, which is an example of the rotating runner 10a of the partition element 1. As shown in FIG. 7, on one end side of the opening 2, elbow pots 19 are formed on the floor surface 16 at intervals approximately equal to the thickness of the partition element 1.
An entrance/exit 18 for opening the lower running guide groove 8 forward is formed in the rail 5 at an intermediate portion thereof, so that the short running runner 11 of the partition body 1
It is designed so that it can be moved in and out. By fitting the shaft 17 of the partition body 1 into the armpit 19 and letting the running runner 11 out through the entrance/exit 18, it is possible to open and rotate the shaft 17 forward using the shaft 17 as a support point. (See the dotted line in the figure).

As shown in FIG. 4, by fixing the stopper 20 to a fixing member (not shown) via the rail 5 with screws 21, the partition at one end side of the opening 2 in the partition element 1 can be fixed. The tall runner shaft 12 of the element body 1a is prevented from running, and the end partition shaft 17 of the element body 1a is inserted into the elbow pot 19. This locks the end partition element 1a from running, and allows the end partition element 1a to be easily opened and closed on one end side of the opening 2.

As shown in FIG. 8c, also in the middle of the floor surface 16, elbow pots 19 are scattered at intervals, and the axis 1 of the partition element 1 other than the partition element 1a at the end is
7 into the elbow pot 19, the partition elements 1 other than the end partition elements 1a can be locked from running and maintained in a closed state. In such a case, the floor contact frame 13 is lowered so that the floor contact cushion 15 comes into elastic contact with the floor surface 16 so that no gap is created between the floor surface 16 and the floor surface 16.

A door stop 4 is formed over the entire length at the side end of the adjacent partition element 1b adjacent to the partition element 1a at the end. Therefore, in order to close the end partition element 1a, by bringing the tip of the end partition element 1a into contact with the doorstop 4, the end partition element 1a can be surely closed. , and no gap is created between the partition element 1a at the end and the adjacent partition element 1b.

By the way, the position of the running runner 11 provided on the partition element 1 is determined by the distances a, b, c between the running runner 11 and the ends of the partition element 1, as shown in FIG.
With the relationship a<b<c, entrance 1 of rail 5
8 is a common entrance/exit 18 for the traveling runners 11 of all the partition elements 1.

The hanging runner 10, which serves as a rotating runner 10a provided concentrically with the vertical axis 3 of the partition element 1, can be temporarily held in its rotating opening/closing position, and when subjected to an external force in the running direction of a certain level or more. A rotating opening/closing holding means 22 is provided which can release the temporary holding state. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10, this rotating opening/closing holding means 22 is composed of a holding body 23 having a U-shaped cross section and a pair of spring pieces 24 attached to the inner surface of this holding body 23. .
The outer dimensions of the holder 23 are made approximately equal to the inner dimensions of the upper running guide groove 7 of the rail 5, so that the holder 23 can be fitted and held in the upper running guide groove 7. A spring piece 24 is attached to the inner surface of the vertical piece 25 of the holding body 23 so as to protrude toward the center.
The upper traveling guide groove 7 is formed by a pair of spring pieces 24, 24.
The width of the ditch is narrowed. Such a rotational closing holding means 22 is formed in a piece shape, and the piece-shaped rotational holding means 22 is connected to the rails 5 by the number of partition elements 1.
The guide groove 7 is fitted into the upper running guide groove 7 so as to be biased towards one end of the opening 2. Engagement recesses 26 are formed at both ends of the holding body 23, and by engaging a screwdriver or the like into the engagement recesses 26, the piece-shaped rotating opening/closing holding means 22 can be easily moved into the upper traveling guide groove 7.
It is designed so that it can be inserted inside.

According to such a configuration, when the partition element 1 is rotated to open and close as shown by the dotted line in FIG.
The hanging runner 10 of the partition element 1 passes between the spring pieces 24, 24 of the rotating opening/closing holding means 22, and is suspended by the spring pieces 24, 24 between the adjacent rotating opening/closing holding means 22, as shown in FIG. Tsute hanging runner 10
is temporarily held, and the partition element body 1 is rotated to open and close smoothly. The rotating opening/closing holding means 2 maintains the rotating opening posture of the partition element 1 rotated and opened in this way.
2 to prevent the partition element body 1 from tilting in the pivoted open state. When receiving an external force in the running direction exceeding a certain level, the temporary holding state is released and the partition element 1 is caused to run smoothly along the rail 5. Incidentally, it is not necessary to provide a large number of such piece-shaped rotating opening/closing holding means 22, and even if only the last one is used, it is possible to prevent the partition elements 1... group from being tilted when opened by rotating. .

In the embodiment, the shaft 17 serving as the vertical shaft 3 was fitted into the elbow pot 19 to rotate the partition element 1 to open and close, but the rotating runner 10a was rotated without fitting the shaft 17 into the elbow pot 19. The partition element body 1 is temporarily held by the rotating opening/closing holding means 22.
It may be rotated to open and close.

[Effect of the invention] In short, a disc-shaped rotation runner that is concentric with the vertical axis and rotates in a horizontal plane is provided at the upper end of the partition element, and the rotation runner can run freely on the upper rail. The spring pieces are placed opposite to each other on the opposing vertical pieces of a holding body having a U-shaped cross section, and the spacing between the opposing spring pieces is made shorter than the diameter of the rotation runner, so that the plurality of holding bodies are placed on top. The rotating runners are inserted into the ends of the rails in contact with each other, and the rotation runners are configured to be temporarily held between the spring pieces of the respective holders between adjacent holders. The spacing between the spring pieces provided is shorter than the diameter of the rotation runner, and the rotation runner can be temporarily held between the four spring pieces between the holding bodies, and the partition element can be held at such a rotation position. It can be rotated to open and close, and temporary holding of the rotational opening and closing position of the partition body can be done with a simple configuration by effectively using the rotation runner, especially when selecting the mounting position of the holding body to the rail. This has the advantage that the rotational opening/closing position of the partition element can be easily changed, and the rotational opening/closing position of the partition element can also be easily adjusted by changing the position of the holder relative to the rail.
