Connection structure for partition walls

Abstract

The present invention provides a connection structure for partition walls. The connection structure enables easy connection or disconnection of the frames of a partition wall to or from each other by manipulating a locking lever rotatably coupled to a locking bar. Further, the connection structure can easily realize an increase in the height of a post, required according to an increase in the height of a partition wall, by vertically connecting a plurality of posts to each other using a post cap.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates, in general, to connection structures for partition walls and, more particularly, to a connection structure for partition walls, which enables easy connection or disconnection of the frames of a partition wall to or from each other by manipulating a locking lever rotatably coupled to a locking bar and can allows easy increase of the height of a post, required according to an increase in the height of a partition wall, by vertically connecting a plurality of posts to each other using a post cap. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] To respect privacy, a closed office space in which a plurality of small-sized rooms is arranged along both sides of a longitudinal hallway has been typically used as a business space. In recent years, to save business space and increase spatial efficiency, to allow business furniture and a variety of business facilities to be easily moved to desired...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a connection structure for partition walls that allows for easy connection of frames using a locking bar and a locking protrusion. The frames have longitudinal holes and a locking protrusion that catches in the holes to secure the frames together. A locking lever brings the frames into close connection with each other, and a compression protrusion compresses the frames to further connect them. A post cap interposed between posts can increase the vertical height of the walls. The frames can also have fitting rails for easy placement on top of each other, and the post cap can have locking projections for connecting posts.

Problems solved by technology

However, the open business space is problematic in that it cannot absorb noise and cannot provide privacy.

However, because the conventional partition walls have been manufactured as two or three types of modules, which have predetermined standardized heights and widths, a user cannot freely select partition walls.

Furthermore, when a user selects partition walls having predetermined sizes, the sizes of the partition walls may not precisely meet the actual sizes of designed compartments, but the user must unwillingly use the supplied partition walls having the standardized sizes according to a contract.

However, the above-mentioned conventional partition wall is problematic in that, to adjust the height of the partition wall, the upper and lower frames must be fastened to the posts using locking bolts after the gap between the upper and lower frames has been changed and, thereafter, the panels must be fastened to the posts, so that the locking bolts must be tightened or loosened one by one when assembling or disassembling the partition wall, thus being inconvenient to users.
