Partition structure and frame used in this partition structure

Abstract

The present invention provides a partition structure that allows for easy tensioning of sheet material and adjustment of the tensioned state, as well as a frame for use in this partition structure. [Solution] The structure 10 has a fixed rail 3 that is stretched vertically between two support posts 2, and a movable rail 4 provided below the fixed rail 3. The movable rail 4 can be adjusted vertically in height by tightening or loosening a bolt 25 supported by a bolt receiving part 24a that protrudes from the support post 2 below the movable rail 4. The lower end of the sheet material 6a that will form the fence body is supported by the movable rail 4, while the upper end of the sheet material 6a is held in a position on the fixed rail 3. The sheet material 6a is then stretched by adjusting the height of the movable rail 4 so that it moves away from the fixed rail 3 by screwing in the bolt 25.

Claims

1. A partition structure comprising multiple support columns and multiple horizontal rails spaced vertically between these columns, the frame of which the partition material is supported, The crossbar comprises at least one fixed crossbar whose end is fixed to the support column, and a movable crossbar positioned below either of the fixed crossbars, the end of which is loosely fitted into a crossbar insertion hole formed in the support columns on both sides so as to slide in the vertical direction of the support column. The movable crossbar has bolt holes in the portions of its ends that are positioned outside the support columns, into which bolts can be screwed from below. The frame of a partition structure is characterized by having a bolt insertion hole in the portion facing the bolt hole, a bolt receiving portion provided to receive the bolt head on its lower surface, and extending from the side wall surface of the support column toward the opposing support column.

2. The aforementioned support column comprises a support column body having at least one groove that is continuous in the vertical direction, The structural frame according to claim 1, having a substantially U-shaped cross-section, with the rib insertion holes formed in the vertical portion of the U-shape, and comprising a groove cover that is fitted and fixed into the groove.

3. The structure comprises the frame described in claim 1 and a sheet material, This sheet material is supported in a folded state by having its intermediate portion supported so as to straddle the fixing crossbar of the frame, and both lower ends of the folded state are fixed to the movable crossbar. The bolts that pull the movable rail are screwed into the bolt holes of the movable rail from below the bolt receiving portion through the bolt insertion holes, and, A partition structure characterized in that, by screwing in the aforementioned pulling bolt, the head of the pulling bolt is received by the bolt receiving portion, and the movable rail is pulled downward, causing the sheet material to be extended.

4. The sheet material comprises a sheet material body and extension portions that extend from both sides of the lower ends of the sheet material body in the folded state and overlap along the lower surface of the bolt receiving portion. The partition structure according to claim 3, wherein the extension portion is provided with an eyelet that overlaps with the insertion hole.

5. In the movable crossbar of the frame according to claim 1, male or female members of a hook-and-loop fastener are fixed to both sides in the width direction, The partition structure according to claim 2 or claim 3, wherein the female or male part of a hook-and-loop fastener that engages with the male or female part of the hook-and-loop fastener is fixed to both lower ends of the sheet material body in the folded state.

6. The structure comprises the frame described in claim 1 and a sheet material, The upper end of this sheet material is fixed to the fixed crossbar of the structure, and its lower end is fixed to the movable crossbar, The bolts that pull the movable rail are screwed into the bolt holes of the movable rail from below the bolt receiving portion through the bolt insertion holes, and, A partition structure characterized in that, by screwing in the aforementioned pulling bolt, the head of the pulling bolt is received by the bolt receiving portion, and the movable rail is pulled downward, causing the sheet material to be extended.
