It is designed to be held in the position shown in the figure. When the actuating shaft 9 is moved in the direction of arrow A in FIG. It is becoming more and more common.

A flooring frame 23 serving as a movable frame for fixing the panel 3 to the floor surface 7 is formed to have the same length as the width of the panel 3, and has a slide groove 24 that opens upward over its entire length. Guide members 26a and 26b are fixed to both ends of the slide member 25 located in the slide groove 24.
a and 26b are movable within the slide groove 24 only in the longitudinal direction of the floor frame 23. Therefore, the slide member 25 is inserted into the slide groove 24 so as to be movable only in the longitudinal direction of the floor frame 23.

A connecting member 27 is fixed to the center of the slide member 25, a lower end of a link 28 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 27, and an upper end of the link 28 is rotatably supported by the link holder 12. ing. Guide shafts 29 that protrude upward are fixed to both ends of the slide member 25, and the guide shafts 29 fit into guide holes 30 provided in the holding members 8a and 8b.
It is supported so that it can move up and down inside. Therefore, the slide member 25 can only move up and down along the guide hole 30.

Further, the slide member 25 is attached to each holding member 8a, 8 by means of a coil spring 31 in the vicinity of the guide shaft 29.
b, and is always connected to the floor surface 7 as shown in Figure 1.
It is suspended and supported at a position separated by a predetermined distance between the two. As shown in the figure, in this state, the link holder 12 is moved to the right by the link 28, and the actuating shaft 9 is moved in the same direction by the biasing force of the coil spring 13, so that the pressing rod 6 is moved as shown in the figure. It is designed to protrude to a certain position.

The floor frame 23 is provided with a release piece 32 that projects upward on the left side of the latch stopper 17, and when the floor frame 23 is moved in the direction of arrow C with respect to the lower frame 5, the release piece 32 engages the engagement shaft of the latch stopper 17. 2

A positioning member 33 is fixed to one side of the floor frame 23, and the positioning member 33 is connected to one guide member 26a by a coil spring 34, so that the floor frame 23 is always aligned with the panel 3 as shown in FIG. It is positioned directly below.

Next, the operation of the flooring device for the panel 3 configured as described above will be explained.

Now, when the panel 3 shown on the left side of FIG. 3 is movable along the hanger rail without operating the floor contacting device and the ceiling contacting device, the pressing rods 6 are projected upward and downward on the side of the panel 3. There is. From this state, the panel 3 is fixed as shown in the right side of Figure 3.
When the pressing rod 6 is brought into contact with the vertical frame 3a and the pressing rod 6 is recessed into the panel 3 using the vertical frame 3a as shown in FIG. 2, the operating shaft 9 is moved in the same direction. Along with this movement, the coil spring 13 is compressed between the spring receiver 11 and the link holder 12, and the link holder 12 is moved in the direction of arrow D by the urging force. Then,
Due to the action of the link 28 and the guide shaft 29, the slide member 25 is moved downward against the biasing force of the coil spring 31 while being supported by the guide hole 30, and eventually the floor frame 23 touches the floor surface 7 as shown in FIG. is pressed against.

At the same time, as the operating shaft 9 moves, the latch 15 is moved in the same direction, and the latch stopper 17
is engaged with the latch 15 and the coil spring 22
The latch 15 is rotated in the direction of the arrow B in FIG. 1 while resisting the urging force of the latch 15, and eventually the latch 15 overcomes the latch stopper 17 as shown in FIG. In this state, the latch stopper 17 prevents the actuating shaft 9 from moving in the direction of arrow E due to the biasing force of the coil spring 13, so that the panel 3 will not be moved by the reaction of the biasing force of the coil spring 13. Therefore, the panel 3 is fixed to the floor surface 7 by the floor frame 23 which is pressed against the floor surface 7.

On the other hand, in order to release the fixation of the panel 3 to the floor surface, move the panel 3 slightly in the direction of arrow D from the state shown in FIG.
The guide member 26a is moved in the same direction with respect to the floor frame 23 which is pressed against the floor frame 23, the guide member 26a is separated from the positioning member 33, and the coil spring 34 is stretched. At the same time, as the panel 3 moves, the latch stopper 17 is moved in the same direction, so its engagement shaft 21 comes into contact with the release piece 32, causing the latch stopper 17 to rotate in the direction of arrow F, and the latch 15 and The engagement with the latch stopper 17 is released. Then,
The operating shaft 9 is moved back in the direction of the arrow E by the biasing force of the coil spring 13, and at the same time, the pressure on the floor frame 23 by the link 28 is also released.
Due to the biasing force of the coil spring 31, the floor frame 23
is pulled upward, and the coil spring 3
The biasing force 4 eliminates the misalignment between the panel 3 and the floor frame 23, resulting in the state shown in FIG. Incidentally, at the same time as the above-described operation of the floor contact device, the ceiling contact device is also operated in the same manner.

As described above, this panel 3 is constructed by pressing the pressing rod 6 protruding toward the panel 3- side against the adjacent panel and recessing it into the panel 3.
3 or the ceiling frame is pressed against the floor surface 7 and the panel 3
is automatically positioned and fixed to the floor surface 7 or ceiling surface 2. Furthermore, in order to release the fixation of the panel 3 to the floor surface 7, the panel 3 is slightly moved in the direction opposite to the retracting direction of the press rod 6, and the floor stile 23 is automatically pulled up to its original position.

Therefore, this panel 3 can be fixed to and released from the floor 7 and the ceiling 2 very easily, and it is also possible to use positioning means such as a round drop for positioning the panel 3 with respect to the floor 7. There is no need to provide one.

Note that by changing the mounting positions of the latch stopper 17 and the release piece 32, it is also easy to move the panel 3 in the direction in which the pressing rod 6 is retracted and release it from contact with the floor.

Effects of the Invention As detailed above, this invention exhibits an excellent effect in that the panel 3 can be extremely easily fixed to the floor surface 7 or the ceiling surface 2 without providing any positioning means such as a drop-off.
