The ceiling panel 51 is made of, for example, sheet metal, and horizontal reinforcing members 52 extending left and right are rigidly connected to the lower surface thereof by welding or the like. The interior ceiling panel 56 is formed by laminating, for example, two sound-absorbing panels 561, and an outer frame 562 is fitted to the periphery thereof, and the outer frame 562 is fixed to the ceiling panel 51 via brackets 55. An air flow path 5F through which air can flow is formed between the ceiling panel 51 and the interior ceiling panel 56. The ceiling panel 51 is provided with a ventilation port 57 for discharging the air in the air flow path 5F to the external space OS. The air flow path 5F communicates with the internal space IS through cutout portions 35a of the sound-absorbing panels 35 that abut against the lower surfaces of both left and right end portions of the interior ceiling panel 56. The ceiling panel 51 supports a downward discharge type automatic fire extinguishing device 58 that automatically senses a fire in the internal space IS and injects a fire extinguishing agent from a nozzle. The fire extinguishing agent injection nozzle 581 equipped with a heat sensor of the automatic fire extinguishing device 58 faces the internal space IS through the interior ceiling panel 56. Since this automatic fire extinguishing device 58 is a normal one, the description thereof is omitted. Further, the interior ceiling panel 56 is provided with a downlight (not shown) or the like for illuminating the internal space IS. Reference numeral 580 denotes a fire extinguishing device cover that covers the automatic fire extinguishing device 58 from above.

[0029] In the internal space IS (indoor) of the booth B described above, the table 6 according to the present invention is provided in relation to the column 42 of the back wall 4 described above, and chairs 7 are respectively arranged on both sides of the table 6.

[0030] As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, 12, and 13, the table 6 includes a top plate receiver 64 fixed to a column 42 (support structure) having cord guide spaces 421s and 422s and facing one side into the chamber IS, and a top plate 61 disposed indoors with its lower surface supported by the top plate receiver 64.

[0031] The top plate receiver 64 is, for example, as shown in FIGS. 5, 7, 12, and 13, a box-shaped structure including a bottom plate 641, a front plate 642 erected from the front edge of the bottom plate 641, side plates 643 erected from both left and right side edges of the bottom plate 641, and a rear plate 644 erected from the rear edge of the bottom plate 641, and is integrally formed of a sheet metal material. At a rearward portion in the central part in the left-right direction of the bottom plate 641, a required number of screw insertion holes 641a for screwing onto the upper cover plate 422c of the lower cover body 422 of the support column 42 are provided. In addition, in the central part in the left-right direction of the rear plate 644, an open area 644r for allowing the support column 42 to face the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64 is formed. In the open area 644r, the upper end portion of the lower cover body 422 fixed to a specific reinforcing member 429 of the support column body 421 and the lower end portion of the upper cover body 423 face the wiring space 64s formed inside the top plate receiver 64, and the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64 communicates with the first and second cord guide spaces 421s, 422s inside the support column 42 through the notch portions 422k, 423k of these upper and lower cover bodies 422, 423 and the cord insertion holes 429h formed in the reinforcing member 429. And on the upper edges of the front plate 642 and the rear plate 644 of the top plate receiver 64, mounting flanges 642a, 644a for mounting the top plate 61 are integrally formed. That is, a plurality of screw insertion holes 642h, 644h are formed in the mounting flanges 642a, 644a, and the top plate 61 is fixed onto the top plate receiver 64 by screws screwed onto the top plate 61 through these screw insertion holes 642h, 644h.

[0032] Thus, the top plate receiver 64 has a wiring space 64s inside that communicates with the cord guiding space. The room IS in this embodiment is for multiple people with chairs 7 arranged on both sides of the table 6 as shown in FIGS. 3, 10, and 11. Specifically, it is for four people with two-person chairs 7 arranged facing each other via the top plate 6. Therefore, this top plate receiver 64 is provided with a wiring space 64s having a capacity capable of accommodating power outlet elements for the assumed maximum number of users (four people). FIGS. 7 and 12 show a state where two table taps T (power outlet elements) are accommodated in the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64, and its capacity is preset so that the number can be increased as needed. Each table tap T in the illustrated example is for personal use and includes a power terminal T1 and a communication terminal T2 such as a USB, and can be individually inserted and removed from the upper surface 61b of the top plate 61 by opening and closing the access window 61a of the top plate 61.

[0033] The top plate 61 is, for example, made of wood. As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 10, the rear end side is supported by the top plate receiver 64, and the front end side is supported by the leg base 63 via the leg support 62, and is arranged inside the room IS formed inside the peripheral wall, that is, the front wall 2, side walls 3, and rear wall 4. Thus, the rear wall 4 (peripheral wall) is provided with a hollow column 42 between the rear panels 41 and 43 as described above, and the column 42 serves as a support structure. The top plate 61 is provided with an access window 61a that communicates the upper surface 61b side thereof with the inside of the wiring space 64s as shown in FIGS. 6, 10, 12, and 13. The access window 61a includes an opening 61d that communicates the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64 with the upper surface 61b side of the top plate 61, and a lid 61e that is provided to be openable and closable in the opening 61d.

[0034] The opening 61d is, for example, rectangular as shown in FIGS. 5, 6, and 12, and is capable of inserting and removing the table tap T. A frame body 61f is fitted on its inner periphery. The frame body 61f includes a front frame portion 61f1 that abuts on the inner peripheral surface on the front side of the opening 61d, and side frame portions 61f2 that abut on the inner peripheral surfaces on both the left and right sides of the opening 61d, and is adapted to be fitted into the opening 61d from the lower surface 61c side of the top plate 61. The frame body 61f is provided with screw insertion holes 61f3 at a plurality of locations, and the frame body 61f is fixed to the top plate 61 by inserting screws through these screw insertion holes 61f3 and screwing them into the top plate 61. At the rear end portion of the side frame portion 61f2, a shaft support portion 61f4 for pivotally supporting the support shaft 61e1 of the lid body 61e is formed, and at the front end portion of the side frame portion 61f2, a shaft locking portion 61f5 for locking the rotation projection 61e2 of the lid body 61e is formed.

[0035] As shown in FIGS. 5, 6, and 12, the lid body 61e is, for example, flat plate-shaped, and can be opened and closed between a start position where it rotates around the support shaft 61e1 provided on the proximal end side and opens the opening 61d, and a closed position (S) where it closes the opening 61d. In the closed position (S), the rotation projection 61e2 of the lid body 61e is locked to the shaft locking portion 61f5 of the frame body 61f and assumes a horizontal posture. However, even in this closed position (S), a gap 61g that allows only cords to pass through is formed between the lid body 61e and the frame body 61f of the opening 61d.

[0036] Thus, with the table 6 having such a configuration, the number of table taps T corresponding to the number of users can be stored in the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64. Therefore, power supply terminals and communication terminals can be provided to the user without excess or deficiency, and problems such as insufficient terminals can be eliminated.

[0037] Thus, cords Cd such as power cords and communication cords led out from the table tap T housed within the wiring space 64s are guided, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, through the cord insertion holes 429h into the cord guiding passages 421s, 422s within the support column 42, and then passed through the cord insertion holes 443b formed in the lower support fixture 44 of the support column and led into the underfloor space 1s of the chassis 1. Then, the cords led into the underfloor space 1s are guided onto the floor surface F through appropriate openings formed in the base body panel 1B of the chassis 1 and connected to appropriate power outlets, communication outlets, and the like.

[0038] When users sitting on both sides of such a table 6 use the table tap T, for example, they can open the lid 61e of the access window 61a and pull out one of the table taps T housed within the wiring space 64s for their own use onto the tabletop 61. If the table tap T becomes an obstruction during use, it is also possible to return it from the access window 61a into the wiring space 64s while keeping the power cord and communication cord connected to this table tap T. In this state, since the power cord and communication cord connected to the table tap T can be inserted into the aforementioned gap 61g, it is also possible to close the lid 61e as it is. Thus, if table taps T for the maximum number of users who can sit on chairs are pre-housed within the wiring space 64s in the tabletop support 64, each user can connect a power cord and communication cord to the table tap T and conduct meetings or work without feeling inconvenienced.

[0039] The chairs 7 arranged on both sides of such a table 6 each include a chair body 71 having a seat 73 and a backrest 72, as shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 10, and 11. An air guiding passage 71s for guiding air taken in from the outside by the ventilation fan 16 into the internal space IS (room) is formed within the chair body 71.

[0041] For a table 6 configured as described above, since a part of the top plate 6 is supported by using a support structure composed of existing support columns 42 and the like, special legs are not required, and its structure can be simplified. Also, since the top plate receiver 64 also serves as a cord receiver, the number of parts can be reasonably reduced compared to those provided with a ceiling receiver and a cord receiver separately. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the man-hours required for manufacturing and assembling the parts.

[0042] Moreover, since the wiring space 64s inside the top plate receiver 64 communicates with the cord guiding spaces 421s and 422s of the support columns 42 that are support structures, it can be led to the floor surface F, the ceiling 5, etc. using these cord guiding spaces 421s and 422s. Therefore, no special member for guiding the cord is required. In addition, the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64 also communicates with the upper surface 61b side of the top plate 61 via the access window 61a. Therefore, it is also possible to pull out the table tap T etc. accommodated in the wiring space 64s of the wiring receiver 64 onto the top plate 61 and perform the connection work. Therefore, for example, compared with the case where the table tap is fixedly provided on the lower surface 61c side of the top plate 61, the cord connection work can be performed more easily. That is, when the table tap is fixedly provided on the lower surface 61c side of the top plate 61, it is necessary to bend down and look into the lower surface side of the top plate when performing the cord connection work, but in this table 6, such unnatural movement is not forced.

[0043] Thus, in the booth B of the present embodiment in which the top plate 61 of such a table 6 is arranged in the room IS, the same operational effects can be obtained. In particular, since the support columns 42 constituting the back wall 4 are used as support structures, the rear end portion of the top plate 61 can be firmly supported without difficulty.

[0044] In the support column 42 in this embodiment, there are a first cord guiding space 421s formed inside the support column main body 421 and second cord guiding spaces 423s and 422s formed between the support column main body 421 and the upper and lower cover bodies 423 and 422. Therefore, it is also possible to appropriately use these cord guiding spaces 421s, 422s, and 423s to organize the cords. Note that since the first cord guiding space 421s and the second cord guiding space 422s communicate with each other at positions where the reinforcing members 428 and 429 do not exist, the wiring space 64s inside the top plate receiver 64 substantially communicates with any of the cord guiding spaces 421s, 422s, and 423s.

[0045] In addition, in this embodiment, since the access window 61a of the table 6 includes an opening 61d that communicates the wiring space 64s of the top plate receiver 64 with the upper surface 61b side of the top plate 61, and a lid 61e that is provided to be openable and closable in this opening 61d, when the lid 61e is stopped at the closed position (S), it becomes possible to widely use the upper surface 61b of the top plate 61. That is, if the lid 61e is opened only when inserting and removing cords with respect to the table tap T and the table tap T is inserted and removed, it becomes possible to perform the cord insertion and removal operation without narrowing the working space on the top plate 61.

[0046] Note that the table according to claim 1 is not necessarily limited to being applied to a booth, and can be constructed using various support structures. Here, the interior space facing the support structure is not limited to a narrow one such as the interior space of a booth, and may be, for example, an office workroom, a conference room, a reception room, etc. Even when arranged in the interior space of a booth, the size of the booth is not limited to that for four people, and it may be for one person, two people, three people, or for a number of people exceeding four. It may be.

[0047] In addition, the outlet element arranged in the wiring space is not limited to a table tap provided with a power outlet or a USB terminal, and various modifications are possible, such as a cable for a wired LAN having a connection terminal provided at the tip thereof. Of course, a plurality of types of outlet elements may be accommodated in the wiring space.

[0048] In addition, in the above-described embodiment, the peripheral wall of the booth is provided with a hollow column between the rear panels, and the column serves as a support structure. However, the peripheral wall of the booth may be configured using a hollow panel body, and the top plate receiver may be cantilever-supported on the panel body that constitutes the peripheral wall.

[0049] The access window is not limited to a configuration in which a lid is provided to open and close the opening. For example, a plurality of elastically deformable covers may be provided in parallel at positions covering the opening, or a configuration in which the wiring space is always open upward may be adopted.

[0050] In addition, various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
