DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for connecting furniture such as office desks, cabinets and tables to a low partition.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, in order to connect a desk with sleeves (1) to a low partition (2), a spacer projecting from the surface of a decorative plate of the low partition (2). (3) (Fig. 3) is fixed in the horizontal direction by screwing or the like, and the mounting screw (5) inserted from the inside of the mounting hole (4) in the side plate (1a) of the desk (1) is inserted into the mounting hole (4). Tighten to the mounting member (3), or attach the L-shaped mounting brackets (6) (6a) (Fig. 4) to the desk.
The front of (1), the back of the top plate (1b), and the low partition
It was fixed to the surface of (2) by the mounting screw (5).

[0003]

In the above-mentioned prior art,
It takes time and effort to screw the spacer (3) and L-shaped brackets (6) and (6a) directly to the surface of the decorative board of the low partition (2), and the mounting bracket (6) is exposed on the front. There were drawbacks. Also, if you place the desks facing each other,
The mounting bracket (6a) could not be attached to the back of one desk.

[0004] An object of the present invention is to eliminate the trouble of opening a required hole on the surface of a low partition to mount a spacer or a mounting bracket, and to prevent such a mounting member from being exposed. Another object of the present invention is to provide a connecting device between a low partition and a desk.

[0005]

According to the present invention, the above-mentioned problem is solved as follows. (1) A locking piece having a length substantially equal to the length of the low partition, bending both ends at a right angle, and locking a front end thereof with a series of locking holes arranged in both side edges of the low partition. And a locking portion provided on one of a side edge of a top plate of furniture arranged along the low partition and a surface of the band bracket opposite to a bending direction at both ends thereof. The other is provided with a locking member that engages with the locking portion.

(2) In the above item (1), the locking portion provided on one of the band bracket and the top plate is a locking member having an upward locking hole, and the locking member provided on the other side. Stop member,
It is a plug with a downward hook.

(3) In the above item (1) or (2), the locking portion and the locking member are attached to a notch in which a side edge of a top plate of the desk is partially cut out.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIG. 1 showing an embodiment of the connecting device according to the present invention, according to the present invention, a series of vertical locking is provided on both side edges of the low partition (2). A hole (7) is provided. These locking holes (7) are arranged in a line at equal intervals, and locking pieces (9) formed at both ends of the band bracket (8) are locked therein.

The obi bracket (8) is a low partition.
It has a horizontal length substantially equal to the length of (2), and its two side edges are bent at right angles toward the decorative plate of the low partition (2), and at its tip, three engaging members are arranged vertically. A stop piece (9) is formed. This locking piece (9) itself is well known, and a series of locking holes arranged in the band bracket (8).
It is locked in three desired continuous locking holes (7) of (7).

The band bracket (8) has an upward locking hole (10a) protruding in a bulging shape on the side opposite to the side on which the locking pieces (9) are formed, that is, on the desk side. The locking portion, that is, the locking fitting (10) is welded. In the illustrated example, the locking fittings (10) are provided at two positions on the front side and the back side of the band bracket (8).

The side edge (11a) of the top plate (11) of the desk (1) is partially cut out at two places to form a notch (11b),
Here, a locking member having a downward hook (12a), that is, an insertion fitting (12) is fixed by a screw (13).

Reference numeral (15) denotes a fixing bracket for fixing the low partition (2) to the floor, and reference numerals (15a) and (15b) denote fixing screws.

The length of the bent arm portion of the band bracket (8), that is, the portion from the bent portion to the locking piece (9) is determined by the side edge of the top plate of the desk (1), In this case, the length is substantially equal to the length protruding from the outer side plate of the one-sleeved drawer.

In connecting the low partition (2) and the desk (1), first, locking pieces on both side edges of the band bracket (8).
(9) is locked in a locking hole (7) at a desired height position in a series of locking holes (7) on both side edges of the low partition (2).

Next, the low partition side of the desk (1) is lifted, and the downward hooks (12a) of the two insertion fittings (12) are simultaneously placed on the two locking fittings of the band bracket (8).
(10) When inserted into the downward locking hole (10a), the desk (1) and the low partition (2) are connected to each other.

Finally, the low partition (2) is fixed by fixing the fixing bracket (14) to the floor surface and the low partition (2) with screws (15a) (15b). This completed state is shown in FIG.

[0017]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the band bracket can be freely attached to a desired height position of the low partition. In addition, unlike the related art, there is no need to expose a mounting bracket or the like for fixing.

Since the side of the desk can be easily connected without damaging the surface of the decorative board of the low partition, and the low partition is securely connected to the desk,
The earthquake resistance is improved. The locking position of the band bracket can be easily changed, and the height of the desk connected thereto can be adjusted. Due to the presence of the band bracket, both can be connected without forming a large gap between the low partition and the desk, so that writing implements and the like can be prevented from dropping from the gap.

According to the second aspect of the invention, the locking portion provided on one of the band bracket and the top plate is a locking metal having an upward locking hole, and the locking member provided on the other. Is a plug having a downward hook, so that the desk can be attached to the low partition without moving in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction. In addition, the connection between the low partition and the desk can be easily and quickly performed without using any screws and simply by inserting the hook into the locking hole.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, the locking portion and the locking member are attached to the notch formed by partially cutting the side edge of the desk top plate, so that the desk top plate and the low partition are provided. Can be made closer to each other.
