[0038] The skirting board 3A comprises a skirting board main body 31 which is in the form of an upright board and has an approximately rectangular shape when viewed from the rear, and a connecting plate 32 which extends forward from both side ends of the skirting board main body 31 and is approximately perpendicular to the skirting board main body 31 and connected to the rear leg 22.

[0039] The skirting board main body 31 is disposed so as to fill the gap between the upper portions of the left and right rear legs 22. Notches i capable of positioning the cover body D are formed at the left and right upper corners of the skirting board main body 31. The connecting plate 32 is provided with screw insertion holes h3 at two locations, top and bottom. The left and right legs 2 and the connecting frame 3 are connected by screwing a screw v3 inserted through the screw insertion hole h3 in the connecting plate 32 into a nut portion n3 provided in the rear leg 22.

[0040] The wiring guide groove forming portion 3B comprises a rear groove wall 33 extending downward and forward from the upper end of the front panel main body 31, and a bottom groove wall 34 extending approximately horizontally from the lower end of the rear groove wall 33 toward the front.

[0041] The rear groove wall 33 is inclined backward. That is, a front surface 33s of the rear groove wall 33 is inclined so as to be positioned gradually upward toward the rear.

[0042] The bottom groove wall 34 has three notches 34a at the left-right center and at both left and right ends for vertical communication of wiring. The front end of the bottom groove wall 34 has a plurality of screw insertion holes h4 penetrating vertically. The connecting frame 3 and the top plate 1 are connected by screwing a screw v4 inserted through the screw insertion hole h4 of the bottom groove wall 34 into a nut n4 provided at the rear end of the top plate 1.

[0043] The shelf board 3C includes a shelf board body 35 having a mounting surface 35s facing upward, and an upright wall 36 for preventing items from falling, which is erected at the front end of the shelf board body 35. The shelf board 3C is designed so that some of the wiring, which is mainly an item, can be placed on the mounting surface 35s.

[0044] The wiring guide groove C is provided along the upper end of the top panel 3A and opens upward. The wiring guide groove C is always open upward except for the portion where the movable member B is disposed. The wiring guide groove C includes the counter-use edge 1e of the top panel 1, which is a front groove wall having a rearward surface and extending in the left-right direction, the rear groove wall 33 of the connecting frame 3, which is disposed rearward of the counter-use edge 1e of the top panel 1 and has a forward surface 33s and extends in the left-right direction, and the bottom groove wall 34 of the connecting frame 3, which has an upward surface 34s and is disposed between the lower end of the counter-use edge 1e of the top panel 1 and the rear groove wall 33. Both left and right ends of the wiring guide groove C are closed by cover bodies D, respectively.

[0045] 3, for example, a movable member B is disposed in the wire guide groove C so as to be movable in the left-right direction, i.e., along the longitudinal direction of the wire guide groove C. In order to allow the movable member B to be disposed in the wire guide groove C without rattling, a separation dimension w1 between the rear surface of the top plate 1 and the front surface 33s of the rear groove wall 33, which constitute the wire guide groove C, is configured to gradually increase upward.

[0046] The cover body D is in the shape of a box that is open downward. The cover body D covers the upper end of the rear leg 22 and can cover both side portions of the wire guide groove C.

[0047] The cover body D comprises a top wall d1, a front wall d2 extending downward from the front end of the top wall d1, a rear wall d3 extending downward from the rear end of the top wall d1, an outer wall d4 connecting the outer ends of the front wall d2 and the rear wall d3, and an inner wall d5 connecting the inner ends of the front wall d2 and the rear wall d3.

[0048] As shown particularly in FIGS. 14 to 16, the lower end of the front wall d2 is provided with an engagement portion k1 that protrudes forward and can engage with the underside of the side end portion at the rear end of the top plate 1.

[0049] As shown in Figure 15, the lower end of the rear wall d3 is provided with two positioning protrusions d31 that protrude downward and can engage with the inner surface of the upper end of the rear leg 22, and a positioning protrusion d32 that protrudes downward and can engage with the inner surface of the rear end of the connecting frame 23.

[0050] 10 and 15, a protrusion k2 is provided at the rear of the inner wall d5, which protrudes inward, i.e., toward the center of the desk in the left-right direction, and is inserted into an insertion hole G formed by the outer edge of the upper end of the back panel main body 31 and the outer edge of the rear groove wall 33. A protrusion d51 is provided at the lower edge of the inner wall d5, which protrudes downward and can engage with the inner edge of the upper end of the connecting frame 23.

[0051] The cover body D is positioned on the rear legs 22 and the connecting frame 23 by the engagement portion k1 engaging with the top plate 1, the positioning protrusions d31 and d32 engaging with the rear legs 22 and the connecting frame 23, the convex edge d51 engaging with the connecting frame 23, and the convex portion k2 being inserted into the insertion hole G. An inclined surface d5s is formed on the inner wall d5 of the cover body D, which is inclined so as to be positioned gradually upward toward the outside. The inclined surface d5s functions as a closing surface that closes both longitudinal ends of the wire guiding groove C, improving the design of both ends of the wire guiding groove C.

[0052] The movable member B is made of synthetic resin. In this embodiment, a plurality of movable members B, i.e., two movable members B, are arranged in the wire guide groove C, but the number of movable members B may be one or more than two.

[0053] The movable member B includes an upward surface b1s that is substantially flush with the upper surface 1s of the tabletop 1, a functional part J having a recessed portion b3 adjacent to the upward surface b1s and recessed downward so as to support an article, such as a smartphone P, in an upright position using the recessed portion b3, and a tunnel forming part b23 that is located below the upward surface b1s, has an upwardly recessed shape, and can form a tunnel T in cooperation with the bottom groove wall 34 of the wiring guide groove C.

[0054] The movable member B is mainly composed of an upper wall b1 having an upward surface b1s, left and right hanging walls b2 hanging down from both left and right end portions of the upper wall b1, a recessed portion b3 formed by an upward U-shaped wall provided at the front end portion of the upper wall b1, and a front wall b4 arranged in front of the recessed portion b3, and is reinforced by a plurality of ribs rb.

[0055] The upper wall b1 has an upward surface b1s and is rectangular in plan view. A plurality of ribs rb extending in the left-right and front-rear directions are provided on the bottom surface side of the upper wall b1.

[0056] The left and right hanging walls b2 have lower edges b21 that can contact the bottom groove wall 34 of the wire guide groove C. The left and right hanging walls b2 are inclined such that the rear edges b22 are positioned gradually forward as they extend downward. The rear edges b22 of the left and right hanging walls b2 are adapted to engage with the forward facing surface 33s of the rear groove wall 33 that constitutes the wire guide groove C. In other words, the movable member B has the rear edges b22 of the left and right hanging walls b2, which are rear engagement portions that can engage with the rear groove wall 33.

[0057] A tunnel forming portion b23 having an upwardly concave shape is provided in the middle of the left and right hanging walls b2 in the front-rear direction. The tunnel forming portion b23 cooperates with the bottom groove wall 34 of the wire guide groove C to form a tunnel T that can communicate the wires placed on the bottom groove wall 34 in the left-right direction.

[0058] The functional part J is provided in front of the upward surface b1s and has a recessed portion b3 that is recessed downward and extends in the left-right direction. The functional part J is capable of supporting various objects (mainly roughly plate-shaped objects) in an upright position by utilizing the recessed portion b3. For example, as shown in FIG. 17, by engaging the lower end of the smartphone P with the recessed portion b3 of the functional part J, the smartphone P can be supported in an upright position that provides excellent viewability for the user.

[0059] The front wall b4 is located at the front end and stands up in a substantially vertical direction. The front surface b4s of the front wall b4 is adapted to engage with the opposite usable edge 1e of the top plate 1, which is the front groove wall. In other words, the movable member B has the front surface b4s of the front wall b4, which is a front engagement portion, that can engage with the opposite usable edge 1e of the top plate 1, which is the front groove wall.

[0060] The movable member B is capable of forming an expandable placement surface on which an article can be placed. That is, the upper surface 1s of the tabletop 1 and the upward surface b1s of the movable member B cooperate to form a placement surface on which an article can be placed. In other words, the movable member B is capable of expanding the area on which an article can be placed beyond the opposite usable edge e1 of the tabletop 1.

[0061] For example, the one shown in Figure 18 is designed so that by cooperating two movable members B arranged in a wiring guide groove C with the rear part of the tabletop 1 adjacent to these two movable members B, the display M of a personal computer, which is an item, can be positioned behind the rear edge of the tabletop 1.

[0062] As described above, the desk of this embodiment comprises a desk body A having a wiring guide groove C that is open upwardly on the opposite end edge 1e of the table top 1, and a movable member B supported by the wiring guide groove C so as to be able to move along the wiring guide groove C.

[0063] The movable member B is provided with an upward surface b1s that is approximately flush with the upper surface 1s of the tabletop 1, a functional part J that has a recessed portion b3 that is provided adjacent to the upward surface b1s and is recessed downward so that an article can be supported by the recessed portion b3, and a tunnel forming part b23 that is provided below the upward surface b1s, has an upwardly recessed shape, and can form a tunnel T in cooperation with the wiring guide groove C.

[0064] This makes it possible to provide a desk having a configuration in which the side of the table top 1 opposite the usable edge 1e can be flexibly used as an area in which items can be placed, while maintaining the ease of use of the wiring guide groove C.

[0065] That is, the upward surface b1s of the movable member B can be suitably used as an area where an item can be placed. In addition, since the functional part J is capable of supporting an item, for example, it is easy to support a smartphone P in an upright position by engaging it with the recessed part b3.

[0066] Furthermore, since the movable member B is provided with a tunnel forming portion b23, the wires guided by the wire guide groove C can be smoothly connected in the left-right direction.

[0067] The wiring guide groove C is configured to include the anti-use edge 1e of the top plate 1 which is a front groove wall having a rearward surface and extending in the left-right direction, a rear groove wall 33 which is disposed rearward of the anti-use edge 1e and has a forward surface 33s and extends in the left-right direction, and a bottom groove wall 34 which has an upward surface b1s and is disposed between the lower ends of the anti-use edge 1e and the rear groove wall 33. The distance w1 between the rearward surface of the anti-use edge 1e (the end surface of the anti-use edge 1e) and the forward surface 33s of the rear groove wall 33 is configured to gradually increase upward.

[0068] Therefore, the wire guide groove C has a suitable shape for easily receiving wires.

[0069] The movable member B has a front surface b4s serving as a front engagement portion that can be engaged with the opposite end edge 1e, and a rear end edge b22 serving as a rear engagement portion that can be engaged with the rear groove wall 33.

[0070] Therefore, the movable member B is unlikely to rattle relative to the wire guide groove C.

[0071] The front groove wall is formed by the opposite usable edge 1e of the top plate 1, and the rear groove wall 33 is extended from the apron 3A arranged on the opposite usable edge 1e side of the top plate 1.

[0072] Therefore, the wire guide groove C is realized by a simple configuration that utilizes the portions extended from the top panel 1 and the back panel 3A.

[0073] The forward surface 33s of the rear groove wall 33 is inclined so as to be positioned gradually upward toward the rear. Therefore, by inclining the forward surface 33s of the rear groove wall 33, a configuration in which the movable member B is less likely to rattle is preferably realized.

[0074] The chair has left and right legs 2 that support the top plate 1, and these left and right legs 2 are connected by a top board 3A. Therefore, the left and right legs 2 can take a stable position relative to the top board 3A.

[0075] The wiring guide groove C is provided along the upper end of the back panel 3A. Therefore, the wiring guide groove C is provided in a suitable position that does not interfere with the user's work. Moreover, the wiring guide groove C is preferably formed by utilizing a portion connected to the back panel 3A.

[0076] An upper surface 1s of the top plate 1 and an upward surface b1s of the movable member B cooperate to form a placement surface on which an article can be placed.

[0077] For this reason, the upward surface b1s of the movable member B can be suitably used as a so-called extended tabletop surface. In other words, the upward surface b1s of the movable member B cooperates with the upper surface 1s of the tabletop 1 to extend the area in which an article can be placed behind the opposite usable edge of the tabletop 1, so that a relatively large article such as a display M can be placed in a suitable position away from the worker.

[0078] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above in detail.

[0079] The wiring guide groove may be any groove provided on the side of the top plate opposite the edge of use, and the specific configuration is not limited to that shown in the above-described embodiment. .

[0080] Needless to say, the shape of the desk itself can take various forms. .

[0081] The functional portion of the movable member need only be capable of supporting an article by means of a recessed portion that is recessed downward, and is not limited to the above-mentioned form that is open in the upward and left-right directions.

[0082] Furthermore, the article supported by the functional portion may be of any type.

[0083] The wiring guide groove may be configured such that the distance between the rear surface of the front groove wall and the front surface of the rear groove wall gradually increases upward, and the specific form is not limited to that of the above-mentioned embodiment. For example, the rear surface of the front groove wall (e.g., the opposite usable edge of the top plate) may be an inclined surface, or the rear surface of the front groove wall and the front surface of the rear groove wall may each be an inclined surface.

[0084] The number of movable members disposed in the wire guide groove of the desk body may be one or more than two.

[0085] Furthermore, the specific configuration of each part is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
