In addition, a fixing jack is attached to the lower end of the partition panel so as to be able to come and go. The runner moves the partition panel to a predetermined position by traveling along the guide rail, and the jack is brought into contact with the floor surface at the predetermined partition position, and the partition panel is slightly pushed up to raise the partition panel. Fix immovable.

[0004]

According to the prior art, since the partition panel is pushed upward through a jack, the runner rises from the running surface of the guide rail when it is fixed perpendicular to the guide rail. And the partition panel may be inclined in the length direction of the guide rail.

In view of the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a screw shaft, a stopper block and a brake plate at one end of a runner so that the partition panel can be fixed via a jack. An object of the present invention is to provide a partition panel tilt preventing device that can effectively prevent the panel from tilting.

[0006]

According to the present invention, there is provided a screw shaft which is vertically attached to one end of a runner for suspending a partition panel and protrudes below a guide rail. It has a stopper block located below the runner and screwed to the screw shaft, and a brake plate with a brake pad attached to the lower end of the screw shaft so as to be rotatable relative to the screw shaft. The gist of the present invention is to make the user sit on the running surface and press the brake plate against the lower surface of the guide rail.

In each jack 35, the base plate 35b and the cushioning material 35b1 are sufficiently separated from the floor surface F via the screw shaft 35a.

When the partition panel 30 moves to a predetermined position, the screw shaft 22 is rotated through the operation handle H. At the tip of the operation handle H, there is formed a square hole H1 that fits into the prismatic portion 22b of the screw shaft 22. Then, when the prism portion 22b is inserted into the square hole H1 of the operation handle H and the operation handle H is rotated to lower the stopper block 21 sufficiently (in the direction of arrow K1 in FIG. 5A), the stopper block 21 It is seated on the running surfaces Ra, Ra of the guide rail R (FIG. 2B). Then, when the screw shaft 22 is further rotated via the operation handle H,
The screw shaft 22 rises (in the direction of arrow K2 in FIG. 7B), the brake plate 23 rises together with the screw shaft 22 via the stopper 22c, and the legs R2, R2 of the guide rail R via the brake pad 23a. Is pressed (FIG. 2C). At this time, the stopper block 21 and the brake plate 23 can lock the runner 10 so that it cannot run by sandwiching the legs R2, R2 of the guide rail R from above and below.

When both the runners 10 and 10 are locked in this way, the jacks 35 and 35 are operated to complete the fixing of the partition panel 30. At this time, jack 3
Even if the partition panel 30 is pushed upward by the rails 5 and 35, the runners 10 and 10 are locked so as not to run, and the partition panel 30 does not tilt in the length direction of the guide rail R. The lock of the runner 10 can be released from the stopper block 21 and the brake plate 23 by rotating the screw shaft 22 in the opposite direction via the operation handle H. However, the completion of the release operation is
The stopper block 21 sufficiently floats from the running surfaces Ra, Ra (FIG. 5A), and the stopper block 21
