In addition, as such a space structure, there has been proposed a structure in which a groove is formed in an upper portion of a connecting rod in order to accommodate wiring of a device used inside the space structure (for example, refer to Patent Document 1).

JP, 2011-6973, A

By the way, in the connecting member described in Patent Document 1, although the wiring arranged on the upper part of the connecting rod can be housed in the groove of the supporting column, the wiring is laid across the supporting column from one connecting rod to the other connecting rod. However, there is a problem that the wiring cannot be freely arranged.

Further, even if wiring is arranged from one connecting rod to the other connecting rod, at the portion where the connecting rods intersect each other, the wiring must be arranged on the other connecting rod after overcoming the connecting member. However, there is a possibility that the wiring arranged over the connecting member is exposed to the outside and the aesthetic appearance is impaired.

Then, the subject of this invention is providing the space structure which used the connection member which can easily route wiring, without spoiling the appearance.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the spatial structure of the present invention is a spatial structure having a connecting member that connects the upper end of the pillar standing from the floor and the end of the connecting rod extending in the horizontal direction, The connecting rod has a substantially rectangular connecting rod main body extending in the horizontal direction, a concave groove continuously extending in the horizontal direction is formed in an upper portion of the connecting rod main body, and the connecting member is formed of the concave groove. It has a recess having a shape that substantially matches the cross-sectional shape, and the bottom surface of the recess is substantially flush with the bottom surface of the recess groove and the upper end surface of the support pillar when the support pillar and the connecting rod are connected. There is a positional relationship.

According to the above space structure, the connecting member has a positional relationship in which the bottom surface of the concave portion is substantially flush with the bottom surface of the groove of the connecting rod and the upper end surface of the supporting rod in the connected state of the supporting rod and the connecting rod. Therefore, even when the wiring is arranged from one of the connecting rods to the other of the connecting rods, the wiring can be easily routed at the connecting portion between the supporting rod and the connecting rod. Further, since the wirings are substantially flush with each other, it is possible to prevent the wiring from being exposed to the outside and improve the appearance.

In addition, the space structure of the present invention has a connecting member that connects two horizontally extending connecting rods in a T-shape when viewed from the top and connects the end face of one connecting rod and the side face of the other connecting rod. In the space structure, each of the connecting rods has a substantially rectangular connecting rod main body extending in the horizontal direction, and a concave groove continuously extending in the horizontal direction is formed on an upper portion of the connecting rod main body, The connecting member has a concave portion having a shape substantially matching the cross-sectional shape of the concave groove, and a notch portion having a shape substantially matching the cross-sectional shape of the concave portion is formed on the side surface of the other connecting rod. The connecting member has a positional relationship in which the bottom surface of the recess is substantially flush with the bottom surface of the recess groove and the bottom surface of the notch when the two connecting rods are connected to each other.

According to the space structure, in the connecting member, when the two connecting rods are connected, the bottom surface of the recess is substantially the bottom surface of the groove of the one connecting rod and the bottom surface of the notch of the other connecting rod. Since the positions are flush with each other, it is easy to route the wiring at the connecting portion between the support rod and the connecting rod at the intersection of the one connecting rod and the other connecting rod. Further, since the wiring is flush, it is possible to prevent the wiring from being exposed to the outside and improve the aesthetic appearance.

Further, in the space structure of the present invention, the connecting member has a flange portion that rides on and locks the bottom surface of the cutout portion.

According to the above space structure, since the concave portion of the connecting member has the flange portion that rides on and engages with the bottom surface of the notch formed on the side surface of the other connecting rod, one connecting rod and the other connecting rod are provided. It is possible to prevent the wiring arranged on the connecting rod from being visible due to a gap between the connecting rod and the connecting member at the intersection.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a spatial structure using a connecting member that can easily route the wiring without impairing the aesthetic appearance.

It is possible to insert a screw into the connecting rod side second screw hole 31b formed respectively. Therefore, since the same type of connecting member 14 can be used when connecting the connecting rods 13 to the support columns 12 and when connecting the connecting rods 13 to each other, the manufacturing cost of the connecting member 14 can be reduced.

When one connecting rod 13 and the other connecting rod 13 are connected via the connecting member 14, the groove bottom surface 33a of the connecting rod groove 33 and the notch bottom surface 34a of the notch 34 become the recess bottom surface of the connecting member recess 53. The positional relationship is substantially flush with 43a (see FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 5). Therefore, it becomes easy to arrange the wiring at the connecting portion between the support column 12 and the connecting rod 13 at the intersection of the one connecting rod 13 and the other connecting rod 13. Further, since the wiring is flush, it is possible to prevent the wiring from being exposed to the outside and improve the aesthetic appearance.

Since the positional relationship is such that even when the wiring is arranged from one connecting rod 13 to the other connecting rod 13 straddling the supporting column 12, it becomes easy to route the wiring at the connecting portion between the supporting column 12 and the connecting rod 13. Many wirings can be arranged. Further, since the positional relationship is substantially flush with each other, it is possible to wire in a straight line, and it is possible to prevent the wiring from being exposed to the outside and improve the aesthetic appearance.

Further, in the space structure 1, two connecting rods 13 extending in the horizontal direction are crossed in a T shape in a top view, and one end face of the connecting rod 13 (an end face of the connecting rod 13a) and a side face of the other connecting rod 13 ( A space structure having connecting members 14, 144 for connecting the connecting rod side surface 13b), each connecting rod 13 having a substantially rectangular connecting rod main body 31 extending in the horizontal direction, and an upper portion of the connecting rod main body 31. Is formed with a groove (connecting rod groove 33) continuously extending in the horizontal direction, and the connecting members 14, 144 have a shape that is substantially the same as the cross-sectional shape of the groove (connecting rod groove 33). A notch 34 having a (connecting member recess 43) and having a shape substantially matching the cross-sectional shape of the recess (connecting member recess 43) is formed on the side surface (connecting rod side surface 13b) of the other connecting rod 13. In the connecting members 14 and 144, when the two connecting rods 13 are connected to each other, the bottom surface of the recess (connecting member recess 43) (recess bottom surface 43a) is the bottom surface of the recess groove (connecting rod recess groove 33) (recess groove). The bottom surface) and the bottom surface of the cutout portion 34 (cutout portion bottom surface 34a) are substantially flush with each other. For this reason, it becomes easy to arrange the wiring at the connecting portion between the support rod 12 and the connecting rod 13 at the intersection of the one connecting rod 13 and the other connecting rod 13, and many wirings can be arranged. Further, since the positional relationship is substantially flush with each other, it is possible to wire the wires in a straight line even at the T-shaped road, and it is possible to prevent the wires from being exposed to the outside and improve the aesthetic appearance.

Further, since the space structure 1 has the flange portion 145 that rides on and locks the bottom surface of the notch portion 34, the connecting rod 13 and the connecting member 144 are connected to the connecting rod 13 and the connecting member 144 at the intersection of the one connecting rod 13 and the other connecting rod 13. It is possible to prevent the wiring arranged on the connecting rod 13 from being visible due to a gap.
