  However, with this mounting structure, the mounting bracket located on the front end side of the side panel protrudes from the front edge or the lower surface of the top plate, so that it does not look good and easily causes the center drawer and interference with the rail.

  In recent offices, a free address system that does not limit the number of seats is used everywhere. However, with the structure described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, side panels can be attached only in units of modules, and desktop panels are installed. If there is no, the mounting itself is impossible.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems, the mounting state does not damage the appearance of the top plate as much as possible, can avoid the center drawer and interference with its mounting tool, the mounting position It aims at providing the attachment structure of the new side panel which was not limited to the width direction of a top plate.

  In order to achieve this object, the present invention takes the following measures.

  That is, the mounting structure of the side panel according to the present invention is for mounting the side panel at a position that divides the top plate surface in the width direction, and includes a lower support portion that supports a lower edge of the side panel, A vertical support portion that supports the rear edge side of the side panel and a rear support portion that is tightly engaged in the thickness direction and the depth direction over the width direction required region on the rear edge of the top plate are integrally provided as a fixture. The mounting device supports the side panel along two sides.

  In this way, when the lower support portion and the vertical support portion are integrated with the rear support portion that is closely attached to the rear edge of the top plate, tilting of the rear support portion and swing of the lower support portion in the top plate width direction are restricted. The For this reason, even if the front panel lower portion of the side panel is not supported on the top plate by a clamp or the like, and the desktop panel is not present, tilting of the panel surface and fluctuation in the width direction on the front end side can be effectively prevented. Therefore, it is possible to realize a mounting structure that does not interfere with the center drawer and its rails without damaging the appearance of the front edge of the top plate, and does not depend on the desktop panel or the like.

  In order to obtain high mounting strength with a simple operation, the vertical support part is provided with a support column, and a hollow part that opens downward is formed in the thickness of the corresponding side panel. It is preferable that the hollow portion of the side panel is inserted into the support column from above and below through the slide portion set to the above.

  Alternatively, it is also effective that the vertical support portion is provided with a support, and this support is fitted into a groove provided in the rear edge of the side panel in a tapered shape and fastened with a connector in a direction in which the fit becomes deep. is there.

  On the other hand, in order to obtain the effect of stabilizing the width in the entire lower edge of the side panel and the effect of suppressing the tilting of the panel surface, the lower support portion has an upward protrusion, and this protrusion is connected to the lower surface of the side panel. It is effective to fit in the groove provided in the.

  In order to enhance the tilt prevention effect without impairing the appearance, the ridges are provided so as to protrude integrally on the thin plate base, and the ridges are fitted in the grooves of the side panel. At this time, it is preferable that the base is set so as to be in close contact with the lower surface of the side panel so that the width dimension of the base substantially matches the width dimension of the side panel.

  Of course, the lower support portion may be the ridge itself, and the entire ridge may be received in the groove of the side panel.

  In order for the groove not to damage the appearance of the side panel, it is preferable that the front of the groove is blocked by the front edge of the side panel together with the protrusions from the front.

  In order to more accurately suppress the behavior of the panel surface in the tilt direction, it is effective that the rear support part has an extension part that protrudes in the top plate width direction from the vertical support part and the lower support part. Is.

  Based on the above structure, the rear support part selects the fixture as the required position in the top plate width direction in order to obtain a degree of freedom in the mounting position in the top plate width direction and make the change work easy. It is further desirable to provide a clamp structure for fixing the device.

  And if only the fixture mentioned above is prepared, it will become possible to utilize this invention effectively only after giving a little process to the side panel side after that.

  Since the present invention has the configuration described above, it is possible to keep the front edge side of the top plate in a good appearance without a clamp or the like with the side panel attached to the top plate, and the center drawer and its attachment. Because it can avoid interference with the equipment, it does not impair the function of the desk, it does not depend on the desktop panel, so if there is only a top plate, it can be attached to the side panel, and the mounting position is not limited to the width of the top plate It is possible to provide a new side panel mounting structure that can easily cope with a free address or the like.

There is a rear support portion 6 that is closely engaged in the thickness direction X (see FIG. 3) and the depth direction Y over a required region, which are made of a metal material and are integrally joined to each other.

  In this embodiment, the lower support portion 4 has an inverted T-shaped cross section in which an angle member 41 is abutted back-to-back as shown in FIG. Is set as the ridge 43. The front end 42a of the base 42 protrudes forward by a predetermined dimension from the front end of the protrusion 43, and a friction material 44 such as rubber is bonded to the lower surface of the base 42. The protrusion height and the longitudinal dimension of the protrusion 43 are set slightly smaller than the depth of the groove 34 and the length of the groove 34 of the side panel 3, and the width (thickness) d3 of the protrusion 43 is the width d4 of the groove 34. It is set so tightly that it can be inserted into. The width dimension d1 of the base 42 is set to substantially match the thickness dimension d2 of the side panel 3.

  As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 and the like, the vertical support portion 5 is provided with a rectangular square pipe-like column 51 that can be inserted into the hollow portion of the rear reinforcing member 33 of the side panel 3. Are provided with through holes 51b at a plurality of locations along the longitudinal direction. A thin plate-like slider 52 made of a resin material or the like is attached to the side wall 51a of the support column 51 by inserting a protrusion 52a provided on the side surface into the through hole 51b.

  The rear support portion 6 is formed by forming a channel portion 6a composed of an upper wall 61, a standing wall 62, and a bottom wall 63 by bending a plate material, and the inner dimension between the upper wall 61 and the bottom wall 62 is the top plate. 2 is set larger than the thickness dimension, and the longitudinal dimension is a dimension that is provided over a required region of the rear edge of the top plate 2, for example, in this embodiment, about 4 to 5 times the inner dimension. Is set. A nut 64 is in rigid contact with the bottom wall 63, and a plate 65 having a tapered hole 65a that opens downward at a portion corresponding to the screw hole of the nut 64 is disposed on the upper surface of the bottom wall 63 as shown in FIG. And plays a role of guiding around a screw member 66 screwed into the nut 64 of the bottom wall 63. These channel portion 6a, nut 64, plate 65, and screw member 66 constitute a clamp structure.

  Then, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the rear end of the ridge 43 and the base 42 constituting the lower support portion 4 is abutted against the front end of the upper wall 61 of the rear support portion 6 (contact position T1), The lower end of the support part 51 is abutted against the upper wall 61 of the rear support part 6 or the part extending from the upper wall 61 to the base 42 of the lower support part 4 (contact position T2). In a state where the ends are simultaneously abutted against the front surface of the vertical support portion 51 (contact position T3), these are rigidly connected by welding or the like to constitute the fixture 1. As a result, the fixture 1 has a T-shape in plan view, an L-shape in side view, and an inverted T-shape in rear view.

  Then, the hollow portion of the vertical reinforcing member 33 on the rear side of the side panel 3 is inserted and fitted in the vertical direction as shown by an arrow in FIG. By inserting and fitting the groove 34 formed in the edge 3 b into the protrusion 43, the lower edge 3 b of the side panel 3 is brought into close contact with the base 42 via the angle member 41, and the front of the groove 34 is connected to the side panel together with the protrusion 43. The front panel 3 is blocked from being seen from the front by the front edge 3a, and the side panel 3 is supported by the fixture 1 along the two sides of the rear edge 3c and the lower edge 3b as shown in FIG. . Then, the channel portion 6a of the fixture 1 shown in FIG. 6 is inserted so as to receive the thickness of the rear edge 2b of the top plate 2, and the crank is at a position where the inner surface of the standing wall 62 abuts against the rear edge 2b of the top plate 2. By tightening the screw member 66 constituting the structure, the plate 65 is pushed up and abutted against the lower surface 2c of the top plate 2, and further tightened to use the bottom wall 63 and the standing wall 62 as a scaffold, and the upper wall 61 and the plate. The distance from 65 is shortened so that the top plate 61 is sandwiched.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 7, the side plate 3 is supported by the fixture 1 along the two sides of the rear edge 3c and the lower edge 3b. At this time, the front end of the base 42 is the front edge of the top plate 2. 2a, so that the rear support portion 6 has an extended portion 6x (see FIG. 1) that protrudes more in the top plate width direction than the vertical support portion 5 and the lower support portion 4. The dimensional relationship of each part is set.

  When the curtain plate 7 shown in FIG. 7 is attached to the rear of the top plate 2, a wiring space S is formed between the top plate 2 and the curtain plate 7, and in particular, the rear support portion 6 of the fixture 1 It is made to move along the wiring space S. In this case, the rear end position of the support column 33 substantially coincides with the rear edge 2b of the top plate 2, and a thick portion 3m of the panel 3 is further provided behind the support column 33. A recessed portion P is formed at the corner of the lower edge 3b. The recessed fitting portion P is for avoiding interference with the rotation operation of the wiring cover C that is rotatably provided at a position where the upper portion of the wiring space S is closed.

  As described above, the side panel mounting structure according to the present embodiment has the lower support portion 4 that supports the lower edge 3b of the side panel 3 when the side panel 3 is mounted at a position that partitions the top plate surface 20 in the width direction. And a vertical support portion 5 that supports the rear edge side 3c of the side panel 3 and a rear support portion 6 that is closely engaged with the rear edge 2b of the top plate 2 in the thickness direction and the depth direction over the width direction required region. Thus, the fixture 1 is configured and the side panel 3 is supported along the two sides by the fixture 1.

  In this way, the lower support portion 4 and the vertical support portion 5 are integrated with the rear support portion 6 that is tightly attached to the rear edge of the top plate 2. Swing in the plate width direction is restricted. Therefore, it is possible to effectively prevent tilting of the panel surface and fluctuation of the front end side in the width direction without supporting the lower portion of the front end of the side panel 3 to the top plate 2 by a clamp or the like or without a desktop panel. it can. Therefore, it is possible to realize a side panel mounting structure that does not interfere with the center drawer 8 and its rail without deteriorating the appearance of the top plate 2 on the front edge 2a side. In addition, since it does not depend on a desktop panel or the like, it can effectively cope with various layouts.

  Moreover, the vertical support part 5 is equipped with the support | pillar 51, The hollow part opened below was formed in the thickness of the corresponding side panel 3, and it set between these support | pillar 51 and a hollow part. Since the hollow portion of the side panel 3 is inserted and fitted into the support column 51 from above and below via the slider 52 as the slide portion, a tight attachment state is realized simply by inserting. At this time, the use of the slide 52 reduces the frictional resistance and increases the tightness, so that a high mounting strength can be obtained with a simple operation.

  On the other hand, the lower support portion 4 is provided with an upward protrusion 43, and this protrusion 43 is fitted in the groove 34 provided on the lower surface of the side panel 3, so the protrusion 43 and the groove By fitting with 34, it is possible to obtain the effect of steadying in the width direction and the effect of suppressing tilting of the panel surface over the entire lower edge 3b of the side panel 3.

  The protrusion 43 is provided so as to protrude integrally on the thin plate-like base 42, and when the protrusion 43 is fitted into the groove 34 of the side panel 3, the base 42 is attached to the side panel 3. Since the width of the base 42 is set so as to substantially match the width of the side panel 3 in close contact with the lower surface, it is effective to prevent tilting by securing the base width. it can. Moreover, since the base 42 is apparently integrated with the lower edge 3 b of the side panel 3, the lower edge of the side panel 3 has an appearance as if it is simply placed on the top plate 2. There is an effect that it is possible to obtain a state that is securely fixed.

  And since the front of the groove 34 is blocked from being seen from the front by the front edge 3a of the side panel 3 together with the protrusion 43, the fitting structure of the groove 34 and the protrusion 43 is completely hidden from the outside. be able to.

  Furthermore, since the rear support part 6 has the extension part 6x which protrudes in the top plate width direction rather than the vertical support part 5 and the lower support part 4, the behavior of the tilting direction of the panel surface is more accurately suppressed. can do.

Furthermore, since the rear support portion 6 includes a clamp structure for selectively fixing the fixture 1 to a required position in the top plate width direction, the degree of freedom of the attachment position in the top plate width direction is obtained. Position change work is also easy. In addition, since the clamp can be arranged on the rear edge side of the top plate 2, the effect of this embodiment of releasing the front edge 2a side of the top plate 2 can be made effective.
If only the fixtures described above are prepared, the present invention can be used effectively by only performing some processing on the side panel 3 thereafter.

  The specific configuration of each unit is not limited to the above-described embodiment.

  For example, the slide portion is not limited to the case where the slider is a separate member as described above, and a lubricant or the like may be attached to the surface or may be polished. Of course, if the surface of the column itself has a low frictional resistance, the surface itself can be used as a slide portion.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the protrusion 143 itself may constitute the lower support portion 104. That is, a square member or a square pipe member that fits into the groove 134 of the panel 103 is used as it is as the protrusion 143 and thus the lower support portion 104, and when the groove 134 of the side panel 103 is fitted, the lower edge 103b of the panel 103 is the top plate surface. Further, the protrusion 143, that is, the lower support portion 104 can be completely hidden in the panel 103.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 9, the support 251 constituting the vertical support portion 205 is fitted into a groove 203d provided on the rear edge 203c of the side panel 203 in a taper shape so that the fitting becomes deeper in the fitting direction. You may make it fasten by. Even if it does in this way, since attachment is completed only by attaching the side panel 203 to the support | pillar 251 and fastening with the coupling tool 200, the attachment operation | work of the side panel 203 is easy and high attachment strength can be obtained.

  Furthermore, in addition to the structure in which the vertical support part and the lower support part are connected to each other, as shown in FIG. Another part may be used as the lower support portion 304. In this case, the side panel 303 may be provided with a vertical groove 303d and a horizontal groove 334 that open rearward and downward in corresponding portions.

Further, the panel may be one using a lightweight core material such as a paper honeycomb core, and the manufacturing method may be a pressure bonding process or the like.
Furthermore, the vertical support portion is not necessarily configured by a single support column, and for example, a structure in which a plurality of support columns are added in an upwardly fitted state so as to correspond to the panel height is also possible. It becomes effective.

  Other configurations can be variously modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
