Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In the partition device described in Patent Document 1, since there is a base plate in the booth space surrounded by a plurality of panels, a booth user can place luggage on this base plate, which can improve the convenience of the booth user. However, in the partition device described in Patent Document 1, since a part of the booth space is occupied as a dedicated space for the base plate, the effective utilization of the booth space is poor.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a partition device that can effectively utilize the booth space surrounded by a plurality of panels while securing a place for a user to place luggage.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] As one aspect for achieving the above object, a partition device A chair having a seating portion, a top plate disposed on the front side among the front and rear directions with respect to the chair, a drawer that can be disposed below the seating portion, and a partition structure that defines an edge of a booth space where the chair and the top plate are disposed. The partition structure includes a side panel disposed only on the first side in the lateral direction with respect to the chair, among the first side and the second side in the lateral direction, and a front-rear panel disposed on at least one of the front side and the rear side with respect to the chair. The partition structure forms an opening on the second side in the lateral direction with respect to the chair. The drawer is movable between a storage position located below the seating portion and a pulled-out position pulled out from the storage position to the second side in the lateral direction. Furthermore, a stopper is provided for defining the pulling limit of the drawer from the storage position to the second side in the lateral direction. The partition structure is arranged along the second side in the lateral direction of the top plate and has a sleeve panel extending toward the second side in the lateral direction as it goes from the front side to the rear side. The drawer at the position of the pulling limit is on the first side in the lateral direction rather than at the position of the end on the second side in the lateral direction closest to the sleeve panel.

[0007] In this aspect, since a drawer is disposed in the booth space, a place for the user to place luggage can be secured. Moreover, in this aspect, in the booth space, the space where the chair is disposed and the space where the drawer is located in the storage position overlap, and the space where the drawer is located is not a dedicated space only for the drawer, so this booth space can be effectively utilized. Furthermore, in this aspect, since the drawer can be disposed at the storage position below the seating portion of the chair, the user of the booth space can access the drawer without getting up from the chair and while remaining seated on the chair.

[0008] Also, in this aspect, the pulling-out direction of the drawer located in the storage position is not the front side of the chair where the top plate is disposed, but the side where the opening of the partition structure exists, and there are no members constituting the partition device in this pulling-out direction. Therefore, in this embodiment, the drawer located in the storage position can be easily pulled out. Moreover, in this aspect, it is possible to prevent the drawer from contacting the feet of the user sitting on the chair during the process of pulling out the drawer located in the storage position. Furthermore, in this aspect, the visibility of the pulled-out drawer can be improved. For this reason, in this aspect, it is possible to prevent the user of the booth space from hooking their foot on the pulled-out drawer.

[0009] Here, in the partition device of the above aspect, a drawer guide may be provided that sets the drawer pulling direction at the storage position to the second side on the side.

[0010] In this aspect, the drawer pulling direction at the storage position can be limited to the second side on the side.

[0012] In this aspect, the drawer at the position of the pulling limit is on the first side on the side rather than the position of the end on the second side on the side of the sleeve panel. Therefore, in this aspect, even if a person is outside the booth space and walks along the second side on the side of the sleeve panel of this booth space, the presence of this sleeve panel can suppress the contact between this person and the drawer at the position of the pulling limit.

[0015] As another aspect for achieving the above object, the partition device includes a chair having a seating portion, a top plate disposed on the front side among the front side and the rear side in the front-rear direction with respect to the chair, a drawer that can be disposed below the seating portion, and a partition structure that defines an edge of a booth space where the chair and the top plate are disposed. The partition structure has a side panel disposed only on the first side in the lateral direction among the first side and the second side in the lateral direction with respect to the chair, and a front-rear panel disposed on at least one of the front side and the rear side with respect to the chair. The partition structure forms an opening on the second side in the lateral direction with respect to the chair. The drawer is movable between a storage position located below the seating portion and a pulled-out position pulled out from the storage position to the second side in the lateral direction. Furthermore, a stopper is provided for defining the pulling limit of the drawer from the storage position to the second side in the lateral direction. The drawer at the position of the pulling limit is on the first side on the side rather than the position of the end on the second side on the side of the front and rear panels Yes.

[0016] In this aspect, the drawer at the position of the pulling limit is on the first side on the side rather than the position of the end on the second side on the side of the sleeve panel. Therefore, in this aspect, even if a person is outside the booth space and walks along the second side on the side of the sleeve panel of this booth space, the presence of this sleeve panel can suppress the contact between this person and the drawer at the position of the pulling limit.

[0019] In the partition device of any one of the aspects including the stopper, it is preferable that the upper opening of the drawer at the position of the pulling limit and the top plate do not overlap each other when viewed from above.

[0020] In this aspect, the upper opening of the drawer at the position of the pulling limit and the top plate do not overlap when viewed from above, so the top plate does not get in the way when the user takes things in and out of the drawer.

Effects of the Invention

[0021] According to one aspect of the present invention, while securing a place for the user to place luggage, it is possible to effectively utilize the booth space surrounded by a plurality of panels.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0023] Hereinafter, embodiments of the partition device according to the present invention and various modifications of this embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0024] 「Embodiment」 The partition device of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

[0025] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the partition device 1 of this embodiment includes a chair 10, a top plate 15, a drawer 20, and a partition structure 30 that defines the edge of the booth space S in which the chair 10 and the top plate 15 are arranged.

[0026] The chair 10 has a seating portion 11, a backrest portion 12, and legs (not shown). The backrest portion 12 extends upward from a portion on the rear side of the seating portion 11. The legs are arranged under the seating portion 11 and support the seating portion 11 and the backrest portion 12.

[0027] The top plate 15 is on the front side Df of the chair 10 and is arranged above the seating portion 11.

[0028] The partition structure 30 has side panels 31, front and rear panels 32, and sleeve panels 35. The side panel 31 is disposed only on the first side Ds1 in the side direction Ds with respect to the chair 10 among the first side Ds1 and the second side Ds2 in the side direction. The front and rear panel 32 has a front panel 33 disposed on the front side Df of the chair 10 and the top plate 15, and a rear panel 34 disposed on the rear side Db of the chair 10. The end of the first side Ds1 in the side direction of the front panel 33 is connected to the end of the front side Df of the side panel 31. Further, the end of the first side Ds1 in the side direction of the rear panel 34 is connected to the end of the rear side Db of the side panel 31. The sleeve panel 35 is disposed along the second side Ds2 in the side direction of the top plate 15. This sleeve panel 35 extends to the second side Ds2 as it goes from the front side Df to the rear side Db. The end of the first side Ds1 in the side direction of this sleeve panel 35 is connected to the end of the second side Ds2 in the side direction of the front panel 33.

[0029] In the front-rear direction Dfb with respect to the chair 10, the end of the rear side Db of this sleeve panel 35 is located at substantially the same position as the end of the rear side Db of the top plate 15. For this reason, in the partition structure 30, the second side Ds2 of the chair 10 forms an opening 39 for people to enter and exit the booth space S. The above-mentioned top plate 15 is fixed to the side panel 31, the front panel 33, and the sleeve panel 35.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first side Ds1 is on the right side and the second side Ds2 is on the left side, but the first side Ds1 may be on the left side and the second side Ds2 may be on the right side.

[0031] The drawer 20 is movable between a storage position located below the seating portion 11 and a pulled-out position pulled out from the storage position to the second side Ds2 on the side. The drawer 20 has a rectangular bottom plate 21, a front plate 22 extending upward from the front side of the bottom plate 21, a facing plate 23 extending upward from the rear side facing the front side of the bottom plate 21, side plates 24 extending upward from each of the pair of side sides of the bottom plate 21, and a handle 25 provided on the front plate 22. The drawer 20 forms a load storage space for storing luggage and the like in a space surrounded by the bottom plate 21, the front plate 22, the facing plate 23, and the pair of side plates 24. Further, the drawer 20 has an upper opening 29, and luggage and the like can be put into the load storage space through the upper opening 29. The drawer 20 can be arranged at the above-mentioned storage position, avoiding the legs of the chair 10 below the seating portion 11, such that the pair of side plates 24 face the front-rear direction Dfb with respect to the chair 10 and the front plate 22 is on the second side Ds2 on the side with respect to the facing plate 23. Note that the drawer 20 may further have casters. The casters are provided on the lower surface of the bottom plate 21 and serve to reduce the load when pulling out the drawer 20 at the storage position.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 2, the chair 10 further has a drawer guide 13 and a stopper 14. The drawer guide 13 extends in the side direction Ds. The drawer guide 13 is provided on the lower surface of the seating portion 11 so as to follow each side plate 24 of the drawer 20. The drawer guide 13 limits the pulling-out direction Dd of the drawer 20 at the storage position to the second side Ds2 on the side. The stopper 14 defines the pulling-out limit of the drawer 20 to the second side Ds2 on the side with respect to the seating portion 11. The stopper 14 can be provided on the lower surface of the seating portion 11 so as to contact the facing plate 23 of the drawer 20 when the drawer 20 is located at the pulling-out limit. Note that the drawer 20a existing at the position of the pulling-out limit is located at the above-mentioned pulled-out position.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 2, the drawer 20a existing at the position of the pulling-out limit is on the first side Ds1 on the side rather than the position of the end 35e of the most side second side Ds2 with the sleeve panel 35. Further, the upper opening 29 and the top plate 15 of the drawer 20a existing at the position of the pulling-out limit do not overlap each other when viewed from above.

[0034] As described above, in this embodiment, since the drawer 20 is arranged in the booth space S, a place for the user to place luggage can be secured. Moreover, in this embodiment, in the booth space S, the space where the chair 10 is arranged and the space where the drawer 20 is located in the storage position overlap, and the space where the drawer 20 is located is not a dedicated space only for the drawer 20, so this booth space S can be effectively utilized. Also, in this embodiment, since the drawer 20 can be arranged at the storage position below the seating portion 11 of the chair 10, the user of the booth space S can access the drawer 20 without getting up from the chair 10 and while remaining seated on the chair 10.

[0035] In this embodiment, the pulling direction Dd of the drawer 20 located at the storage position below the seating portion 11 is not the front side Df of the chair 10 where the top plate 15 is arranged, but the side where the opening 39 of the partition structure 30 exists, and there are no members constituting the partition device 1 in this pulling direction Dd. Therefore, in this embodiment, the drawer 20 located at the storage position can be easily pulled out. Moreover, in this embodiment, it is possible to prevent the drawer 20 from coming into contact with the feet of the user sitting on the chair 10 during the process of pulling out the drawer 20 located at the storage position. Further, in this embodiment, the visibility of the pulled-out drawer 20 can be improved. For this reason, in this embodiment, it is possible to prevent the user of the booth space S from getting their foot caught on the pulled-out drawer 20. In particular, when a plurality of booths having the same shape are arranged side by side in the front-rear direction Dfb to form a booth group, a plurality of sleeve panels 35 are adjacent to each other. Therefore, a person walking along the side of the booth group walks in a place where they can avoid the next sleeve panel 35 without approaching the booth group even after passing by one sleeve panel 35, so the risk of a person coming into contact with the drawer 20 is further reduced.

[0036] In addition, in the present embodiment, the upper opening 29 in the drawer 20a located at the pull-out limit position and the top plate 15 do not overlap when viewed from above, so the top plate 15 does not get in the way when the user takes in and out luggage from the drawer 20.

[0037] Further, in the present embodiment, the drawer 20a located at the pull-out limit position is on the first side Ds1 on the side rather than at the position of the end 35e of the second side Ds2 on the side of the sleeve panel 35. For this reason, in the present embodiment, even when the person M is outside the booth space S and walks along the second side Ds2 on the side of the sleeve panel 35 along this booth space S, due to the presence of this sleeve panel 35, contact between this person M and the drawer 20a located at the pull-out limit position can be suppressed.

[0038] "First Modification Example" The partition device in the first modification example of the above embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 4.

[0039] The partition structure 30 of the partition device 1 in the above embodiment has a side panel 31, a front and rear panel 32, and a sleeve panel 35. This front and rear panel 32 has a front panel 33 and a rear panel 34. However, like the partition device 1a in the first modification example shown in FIG. 4, the partition structure 30a may not have a sleeve panel. Further, the front and rear panel 32a of the partition structure 30a may have only the front panel 33a.

[0040] In this modification example, the entire second side Ds2 on the side of the top plate 15a and the entire second side Ds2 on the side of the chair 10 form the opening 39a of the partition structure 30.

[0041] In the case of this modification example, it is preferable that the drawer 20a located at the pull-out limit position is on the first side Ds1 on the side rather than at the position of the end 33e of the second side Ds2 on the side of the front panel 33a. By configuring in this way, even when the person M is outside the booth space S and walks along the second side Ds2 on the side of the front panel 33a along this booth space S, due to the presence of this front panel 33a, contact between this person M and the drawer 20a located at the pull-out limit position can be suppressed.

[0042] "Second Modification Example" The partition device in the second modification example of the above embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

[0043] The partition structure 30 of the partition device 1 in the above embodiment has a side panel 31, a front and rear panel 32, and a sleeve panel 35. This front and rear panel 32 has a front panel 33 and a rear panel 34. However, like the partition device 1b in the second modification example shown in FIG. 5, the partition structure 30b may have no sleeve panel. Further, the front and rear panel 32b of the partition structure 30b may have only the rear panel 34b.

[0044] In this modification example, the entire second side Ds2 on the side of the top plate 15b and the entire second side Ds2 on the side of the chair 10 form the opening 39b of the partition structure 30b.

[0045] In the case of this modification example, the drawer 20a existing at the position of the drawer limit is preferably on the first side Ds1 on the side rather than at the position of the end 34e of the most lateral second side Ds2 on the rear panel 34b. By configuring in this way, even if the person M is outside the booth space S and walks along the second side Ds2 on the side of the rear panel 34b of this booth space S, the contact between this person M and the drawer 20a existing at the position of the drawer limit can be suppressed due to the presence of this rear panel 34b. In the first modification example and the second modification example, when a plurality of booths having the same shape in the front - rear direction Dfb are arranged side by side to form a booth group, as in the above embodiment, the possibility of a person contacting the drawer 20 is further reduced. Also, even when the shapes of the individual booths among the plurality of booths are not the same and the booths of the above - mentioned embodiment, the first modification example, and the second modification example are mixed, the same effects as above can be obtained.

[0046] Note that the front and rear panel of the partition structure has a front panel and a rear panel, and the partition structure may have no sleeve panel as in this modification example. In this case, the drawer 20a existing at the position of the drawer limit is preferably on the first side Ds1 on the side rather than at the position of the end of the most lateral second side Ds2 on at least one of the front panel and the rear panel.

[0047] "Other Modification Examples" In the above embodiments and each modification example, the top plate 15 of the partition device 1 is fixed to the panel constituting the partition structure 30. However, the top plate 15 may not be fixed to the panel. For example, it may be provided on the panel so as to be movable in the vertical direction. Further, legs may be provided below the top plate 15, and the top plate 15 may be supported by these legs.

[0048] In the above embodiments and each modification example, the chair 10 of the partition device has legs that support the seating portion 11 and the backrest portion 12. However, the chair 10 may not have legs. For example, the seating portion 11 and the backrest portion 12 of the chair 10 may be fixed to the side panel 31 and / or the rear panel 34. Further, the chair 10 may not have a backrest portion.
