Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a wall greening device and wall greening structure for greening the wall surface of a structure. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, greening of building walls has been promoted for the purposes of mitigating the heat island effect, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, improving the landscaping of exterior walls, etc. There are various types of green wall structures, but the most well-known is the climbing type, in which climbing plants are allowed to creep up on supporting materials such as nets and wires installed on the wall.

[0003] Patent Document 1, for example, discloses a climbing-type wall greening device that includes a greening substrate such as a vertical fence or lattice on which climbing plants can be fixed, and multiple rod-shaped supports that hold the greening substrate to the wall of a building. The rod-shaped supports are fixed to the wall of the building and are configured to detachably and rotatably hold the outer edge of the greening substrate.

[0004] This allows the greening substrate to rotate horizontally or vertically away from the building, using any of the multiple rod-shaped supports as a fulcrum, so even if the wall greening device is installed on a wall, the light entering the building can be freely adjusted.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-092157 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, wall greening devices require maintenance, such as trimming the climbing plants that have grown on the outside of the greening substrate. For maintenance work, if there is a maintenance walkway between the exterior wall and the greening substrate, workers must lean outward from there to check the condition of the branches and leaves and then carry out pruning work. Furthermore, depending on the state of overgrowth of the plants and the size of the greening substrate, workers may need to lean further out during pruning work, which creates challenges not only in terms of workability but also in terms of ensuring worker safety. Currently, there are often no facilities for attaching safety harnesses, and safety is ensured by deploying workers to support the pruning workers in addition to the workers in charge of pruning, which is not necessarily efficient.

[0007] Furthermore, if there are gaps due to the use of gratings or other materials on the scaffolding boards of the maintenance walkway between the exterior wall and the greening substrate, and if pruning work is carried out from the building side using the open space in the greening substrate, there is a risk that pruning tools or pruned branches and leaves will fall. For this reason, it is necessary to take precautions to prevent serious accidents and to carry out the work with the utmost care, which makes the work more complicated.

[0008] Furthermore, it is possible to perform maintenance work from outside the building by erecting temporary scaffolding boards facing the exterior wall or by using a high-altitude work vehicle, but this would not only be a large-scale job but would also require working at height, which would place a heavy burden on workers and raise maintenance costs.

[0009] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its main object is to provide a wall greening device and wall greening structure that are easy to work with when greening a wall or maintaining plants. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] In order to achieve this purpose, the wall greening device of the present invention is a wall greening device that is installed on the wall surface of a structure, and is characterized by comprising: a support beam whose base end is fixed to the wall surface; a support pole that is arranged at a distance from the wall surface and is attached to the support beam so that it can rotate horizontally; a panel that is fixed in a parallel position to the support pole and has plants for wall greening attached to it; and a scaffolding board that is installed between the panel and the wall surface.

[0011] According to the wall greening device of the present invention, a panel with wall greening plants on its surface is fixed in a parallel position to a horizontally rotatable support, and a scaffolding board is installed between the support and the wall. By rotating the panel horizontally together with the support, part or all of the surface can be turned toward the scaffolding board. This allows workers to perform maintenance work, such as checking the condition of the foliage of the wall greening plants on the panel surface, planning pruning work, and performing pruning work, from the scaffolding board without leaning out of a building or other structure. Furthermore, even when the device is installed on a wall of a building or other structure, work can be performed safely without large-scale work such as setting up temporary scaffolding or using aerial work vehicles. This makes it possible to provide a wall greening device with excellent workability during maintenance.

[0012] The wall greening device of the present invention is characterized in that the support pole is provided with a planter support portion for supporting a planter in which the wall greening plants are planted.

[0013] With the wall greening device of the present invention, by placing a planter on the planter support provided on the support, the panel and planter can be rotated horizontally together with the support. Therefore, by rotating the panel 180 degrees, the entire surface covered with green wall plants can be placed facing the scaffolding board. This allows workers to face the surface of the panel covered with green wall plants, making maintenance work such as pruning plants and maintaining the wall greening device easier and safer.

[0014] The wall greening device of the present invention is characterized by comprising a fixing structure for fixing the panel that rotates horizontally together with the support pole.

[0015] According to the wall greening device of the present invention, the surface of the panel that rotates horizontally together with the support pole can be stably fixed facing outward under normal conditions, without being affected by weather. Furthermore, when maintaining the wall greening plants, the panel can be rotated horizontally together with the support pole and fixed in a position that is optimal for the work, improving workability. Furthermore, the panel can be rotated horizontally to adjust the light entering the building and then fixed in this position, contributing to the creation of an amenity space within the building.

[0016] The wall greening device of the present invention is characterized in that a plurality of combinations of the support beams and the posts are arranged in parallel at intervals, and the panel is provided on each of the posts.

[0017] According to the wall surface greening device of the present invention, a wide area of ​​the wall surface can be greened with a plurality of panels arranged in parallel, which makes it possible to make the panels more compact and improve ease of maintenance.

[0018] The wall greening device of the present invention is also characterized by comprising an interlocking drive mechanism for interlockingly rotating the parallel-arranged supports horizontally.

[0019] The wall greening device of the present invention allows the horizontal rotation of multiple parallel-arranged supports via an interlocking drive mechanism, thereby efficiently rotating the panels attached to each support at the same angle. Furthermore, even when the panels are rotated horizontally, the beautiful appearance of the wall surface of the structure can be maintained.

[0020] The wall greening structure of the present invention is characterized in that a plurality of wall greening devices of the present invention are arranged in the height direction and / or the width direction.

[0021] The wall greening structure of the present invention is characterized in that the supports of the wall greening devices adjacent to each other in the height direction are connected to each other.

[0022] The wall greening structure of the present invention allows for greening of a wider area on the wall of a structure. Furthermore, by connecting the supports of vertically adjacent wall greening devices to each other, rotating one support allows the panels of vertically adjacent wall greening devices to rotate simultaneously. [Effects of the Invention]

[0023] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a wall greening device and a wall greening structure that are easy to work with during maintenance. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0025] The present invention is a wall greening device and wall greening structure to be installed on the wall surface of a structure, in which a scaffolding board is installed on the back side of a panel having wall greening plants on its surface, and the panel can be rotated horizontally so that the front surface can face the scaffolding board, thereby improving workability when maintaining the wall greening plants, etc. One embodiment of the wall greening device and wall greening structure will be described below with reference to Figures 1 to 10.

[0026] In this embodiment, an example is given in which a wall greening device and wall greening structure are installed on the exterior wall of a building with windows on each floor, but this is not limited to this.The wall greening device and wall greening structure can be used on any building or structure, and can be applied to any location, such as the exterior wall of a building, the interior wall of a large-space building, or extending from the exterior wall of a building to the roof to double as a rooftop fence.

[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a climbing type wall greening system in which climbing plants are allowed to creep is used as an example, but it can also be used for any type of wall greening system, such as a unit type in which plants are fitted in, or a propagation type in which moss is propagated.

[0028] <<<<<Wall greening structure>>>> As shown in Figure 1, the wall greening structure 100 is installed on an exterior wall 201 that forms one side of a building 200, and as shown in Figure 2, it is composed of multiple wall greening devices 10 arranged to correspond to the height of windows 202 on each floor of the building 200.

[0029] 1 shows an example in which six green wall devices 10, each having four panels 13, are arranged in the vertical direction to form the green wall structure 100. However, if the building 200 is large, multiple green wall devices 10 may be arranged in parallel not only in the vertical direction but also in the horizontal direction to form the green wall structure 100. Furthermore, if the green wall structure 100 is to be installed on an exterior wall 201 that has an entrance or parking lot access on the ground floor, for example, it is advisable to modify the green wall structure 100 as appropriate, for example by installing the green wall structure 100 above the ground floor and arranging the interlocking drive mechanism 18, described later, on the rooftop side.

[0030] <<Wall greening device>> As shown in Figure 2, each wall greening device 10 constituting the wall greening structure 100 comprises a support beam 11 whose base end is fixed to the exterior wall 201, a support post 12 supported by the support beam 11 and capable of horizontally rotatable about its axis, and a panel 13 and planter 14 that rotate horizontally together with the support post 12. Also, between the support post 12 and the exterior wall 201, on the rear surface 13b side of the panel 13, there is provided a scaffolding board 15 for providing a working space S, and a cross member 16 that supports the scaffolding board 15.

[0031] ≪≪Support beam 11≫ 2 and 3, the support beams 11 are provided above and below the window 202, with their base ends fixed to the exterior wall 201 by fixing means (not shown) such as post-installed anchors, and their tip ends projecting out in a cantilevered manner. Both the upper support beam 11a located above the window 202 and the lower support beam 11b located below it comprise a support beam main body 111, a hollow bearing cylinder 113 in which a bearing 114 is held, and a base plate 112.

[0032] As shown in Fig. 3, the support beam body 111 is made up of two channel steels arranged in parallel, back-to-back with a gap between them and with their openings facing horizontally. Also, as shown in Fig. 2, a base plate 112 is fixed to one end of the support beam body 111 as an end plate, and both the upper support beam 11a and the lower support beam 11b are installed on the exterior wall 201 via this base plate 112. Meanwhile, a bearing cylinder 113 is arranged at the other end, which is the tip end, so as to be sandwiched between the two channel steels that make up the support beam body 111.

[0033] 3 and 4, the bearing cylinder 113 is a member that opens in the vertical direction and supports the support column 12 inserted into this opening so that it can rotate horizontally around its axis, and is made of a steel pipe with an internal bearing 114. The shape of the bearing cylinder 113 is not limited to this, and any structure may be adopted as long as it has a configuration that can support the support column 12 so that it can rotate horizontally around its axis relative to the upper support beam 11a and the lower support beam 11b.

[0034] ≪≪Post 12≫≫ As shown in Figure 2, the support pillar 12 is made of a long steel member that rotates horizontally around its axis, with the vicinity of its upper end and the vicinity of its lower end supported by bearing cylinders 113 provided on the upper support beam 11a and the lower support beam 11b, respectively. The outer peripheral surface of the support pillar 12 is provided with a plurality of panel fixing portions 12a that support the panels 13 and planter support portions 12b that support the planters 14. In Figure 2, in order to position the panels 13 and the planters 14 in opposing positions across the support pillar 12, the plurality of panel fixing portions 12a and the planter support portions 12b are provided on the outer peripheral surface that faces each other across the axis of the support pillar 12.

[0035] Panel fixing portion 12a is a mounting portion for installing panel 13 on the outer peripheral surface of support 12, and may have any configuration as long as it can mount and support panel 13. In Figure 2, rod-shaped members protruding from the outer peripheral surface of support 12 are used, and are arranged in two locations with a gap in the height direction.

[0036] Planter support portion 12b is a member that supports planter 14 that is placed below panel 13 or below panel 13, and can be in any shape, such as a container or plate, as long as it can hold or accommodate planter 14. Figure 2 shows an example of a plate-shaped member on which planter 14 can be placed.

[0037] <<<Panels and planters>> As shown in Fig. 3, panel 13 is a so-called greening panel on which wall greening plants P are grown, and includes a frame 131 and a plant holding portion 132 provided inside frame 131. Frame 131 has a rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and panel fixing portion 12a of support 12 as shown in Fig. 2 is installed on the back surface 13b side facing exterior wall 201, on a center line extending in the height direction.

[0038] As a result, the panel 13 rotates horizontally together with the support 12 like a revolving door by pushing or pulling either side of the frame 131, as shown in Figure 4. The planar shape of the frame 131 is not limited to a rectangular shape when viewed from the front, but may be formed in any shape such as a triangular shape or an elliptical shape. In addition, the cross-sectional shape may also be, for example, an arc type.

[0039] The planting holder 132 is a member along which the wall greening plants P are allowed to crawl, and as shown in Figure 3, a wire mesh is used, but any material commonly used as a climbing type greening auxiliary material, such as ladder wire or three-dimensional wire mesh, can also be used. The wall greening plants P allowed to crawl along the planting holder 132 are planted in a planting base, and the planting base may be provided on the panel 13. However, in this embodiment, the case where the plants are planted in a planter 14 is given as an example.

[0040] The planter 14 is a container that holds soil for planting the wall greening plants P, and as shown in Figure 4, is a rectangular container whose longitudinal direction in plan view corresponds to the width direction of the panel 13. In Figure 4, one planter 14 is provided for one panel 13, but multiple planters 14 may be provided for one panel 13 and supported by the planter support part 12b.

[0041] The combination of the support posts 12 that rotate horizontally while supporting the panels 13 and planters 14 and the support beams 11 that include upper support beams 11a and lower support beams 11b may be provided in one set for the wall greening device 10, or multiple sets may be provided in parallel. In this embodiment, an example is given in which four sets of these combinations are used horizontally, and the panels 13 are arranged in parallel with a gap between them so that they do not come into contact with each other.

[0042] In this way, a wide area of ​​the exterior wall 201 can be greened with a plurality of panels 13 arranged in parallel, which makes it possible to make the panels 13 compact and improve ease of maintenance. Scaffolding boards 15 are provided between the columns 12 arranged in parallel in this way and the exterior wall 201 of the building 200.

[0043] As shown in Figures 2 and 4, the scaffolding boards 15 are provided to form a work space S between the support posts 12 and the building 200 for workers to perform maintenance work. For this reason, the height position of the scaffolding boards 15 is positioned lower than the panels 13 and planters 14 so as not to come into contact with them when they rotate horizontally. The scaffolding boards 15 can be made of drainage-resistant plate materials such as grating material, perforated steel plates, and mesh plates. Any support structure may be used for these scaffolding boards 15, but Figures 2 to 4 show an example in which cross members 16 are used.

[0044] The cross members 16 are long steel members that are spanned between adjacent lower support beams 11b, and an example in which an H-shaped steel is used is shown in Figure 2. The upper flanges of these cross members 16 are joined by abutting them against the undersides of the lower support beams 11b, and scaffolding boards 15 are provided in the area formed by the cross members 16 and the adjacent lower support beams 11b.

[0045] <<<<Maintenance work on wall greening devices>>>> In a wall greening device 10 having the above configuration, as shown in the leftmost panel 13 in Figure 4, under normal circumstances, the back surface 13b fixed to the support 12 faces the exterior wall 201 of the building 200, and the front surface 13a on which the wall greening plants P grow faces outward. Therefore, when performing maintenance work on the wall greening device 10, such as pruning the wall greening plants P, a worker in the work space S on the scaffolding boards 15 pushes or pulls in one of the two sides of the panel 13. This causes the support 12 to rotate horizontally around its axis, and as a result, the panel 13 and planter 14 rotate horizontally together with the support 12.

[0046] As a result, by rotating the panel 13 180 degrees, as in the panel 13 shown on the far right in Fig. 4, the surface 13a on which the wall greening plants P are growing can be made to face the work space S on the scaffolding board 15. This allows a worker to check the state of the branches and leaves of the wall greening plants P growing on the surface 13a of the panel 13, plan pruning work, and perform other maintenance work by himself without having to lean over.

[0047] Furthermore, even when the wall greening device 10 is installed on the wall of a building or the like, it is possible to work safely without large-scale work such as erecting temporary scaffolding or using a high-altitude work vehicle. In this way, it is possible to provide a wall greening device 10 that is easy to work with during maintenance.

[0048] Furthermore, there is no need to grab the branches and leaves while selecting them as in the past. For each wall greening device 10, the pruned branches and leaves are simply dropped onto the scaffolding board 15, and after pruning is complete, the fallen branches and leaves are collected all at once, a process that can be repeated, greatly improving workability. Protecting the scaffolding board 15 by covering it with a construction sheet or similar can also prevent the pruned branches and leaves and pruning tools from falling to the floor below.

[0049] As shown in Figure 4, when the panel 13 is rotated horizontally, an opening is created from the scaffolding board 15 toward the outdoors. For this reason, it is a good idea to install hook holders 204 or round rings for attaching the hooks of safety harnesses, for example, on the exterior wall 201 of the building 200. In this way, workers working in the work space S can safely perform maintenance work by wearing safety harnesses with hooks attached to the hook holders 204 or round rings. Alternatively, eye bolts 134 may be attached to the frame 131 that constitutes the panel 13. These eye bolts 134 may be used to take measures to prevent falls, such as by stretching a wire or net between adjacent panels 13.

[0050] <<<<<Other examples of wall greening devices>>>> In the above embodiment, the frame body 131 of the panel 13 has a rectangular shape when viewed from the front, the panel fixing portion 12a of the support 12 is installed on the center line extending in the height direction, and the panel 13 rotates horizontally together with the support 12 like a revolving door. However, the installation position of the support 12 relative to the panel 13 is not necessarily limited to this.

[0051] For example, the panel fixing portion 12a of the support 12 may be installed on either one of the two side portions of the frame body 131, and the panel 13 may be configured to rotate horizontally together with the support 12 like a single door, as shown in Fig. 5. In this case, the panel 13 may be configured to be pulled into the work space S and rotated as shown in Fig. 5, or may be configured to be pushed out to the outside and rotated as shown in Fig. 6. In this way, the amount of overhang of the support beams 11 and scaffolding boards 15 that overhang the outer wall 201 of the building 200 can be shortened, thereby making the building more compact.

[0052] In the above embodiment, the planter support portion 12b is fixed to the support pole 12, and the panel 13 and planter 14 rotate horizontally together. However, the support pole 12 does not necessarily have to be provided with the planter support portion 12b. As shown in Figure 7, the planter 14 may be placed on a scaffolding board 15, and only the panel 13 may be configured to rotate horizontally together with the support pole 12.

[0053] <<Panel 13 fixing mechanism>> The wall greening device 10 described above is equipped with a fixing mechanism 17 for fixing the horizontally rotating panel 13 in a predetermined position. Any structure can be used as long as it can fix the horizontally rotated panel 13 together with the support posts 12 in a predetermined position, and Fig. 8 shows an example of a rod-type fixing mechanism 17 that includes a circular plate 171 provided on the upper support beam 11a side and a rod 173 provided on the panel 13 side.

[0054] The circular plate 171 is made of a doughnut-shaped circular plate member, and is fixed to the lower end of the bearing cylinder 113 that constitutes the upper support beam 11a with the support column 12 passing through it. The circular plate 171 is insulated from the support column 12 and does not rotate with the support column 12. In addition, a plurality of through holes 172 are provided in the plate surface of the circular plate 171 at appropriate intervals in the circumferential direction, and rods 173 are inserted into and removed from these through holes 172.

[0055] The rod 173 passes through the frame body 131 of the panel 13 in the vertical direction and is inserted into an elongated hole 133 extending in the axial direction of the support 12. The rod 173 also has a fixing protrusion 173b that rests on the upper surface of the frame body 131 of the panel 13 when pushed up to a height that passes through the through-hole 172 of the circular plate 171, and a releasing protrusion 173a that rests on the upper surface of the frame body 131 of the panel 13 when pulled down to a height that allows it to come out of the through-hole 172 of the circular plate 171.

[0056] The release protrusion 173a and the fixed protrusion 173b are provided so as to protrude radially and intersect with each other from the rod 173. Therefore, when the rod 173 is rotated horizontally and the fixed protrusion 173b is directed toward the axis of the support 12, the rod 173 can be freely moved up and down within the elongated hole 133, with the release protrusion 173a as the lower limit.

[0057] As a result, when it is desired to fix the panel 13 in position after rotating it by a predetermined angle, the rod 173 is pushed up with the fixing protrusion 173b positioned inside the elongated hole 133, and the tip is inserted into the through-hole 172 of the circular plate 171. Thereafter, the rod 173 is rotated horizontally, and the fixing protrusion 173b is placed on the upper surface of the frame body 131 of the panel 13.

[0058] On the other hand, when it is desired to rotate the panel 13, the rod 173 is rotated horizontally to position the fixing protrusion 173b within the elongated hole 133, and then the rod 173 is pulled down until the releasing protrusion 173a abuts against the upper surface of the frame body 131 of the panel 13.

[0059] As a result, the surface 13a of the panel 13, which rotates horizontally around the support 12 and on which the wall greening plants P grow, can normally be fixed stably facing outdoors, without being affected by weather. Furthermore, during maintenance work, the panel 13 can be rotated horizontally together with the support 12 and fixed in a position suitable for the work, improving workability.

[0060] Therefore, the circular plate 171 should have through holes 172 at positions where the panel 13 can be fixed with the surface 13a facing outward (normally) and facing the work space s (during maintenance). However, as shown in Fig. 8, a plurality of through holes 172 may be formed in addition to these at intervals in the circumferential direction.

[0061] 9, the panel 13 can be rotated horizontally as needed to adjust the amount of light incident on the room 203 in the building 200, and then fixed in this position. This makes it possible to add to the wall greening device 10 a function that contributes to the creation of an amenity space in the room 203 in the building 200.

[0062] <<<<<Panel 13 interlocking drive mechanism>>>> In the above-mentioned wall greening device 10, the panels 13 may be rotated horizontally individually manually by an operator, or the four parallel-arranged supports 12 may be rotated in unison via an interlocking drive mechanism 18 as shown in Figures 1 and 2, so that the four parallel-arranged panels 13 are rotated horizontally simultaneously.

[0063] The interlocking drive mechanism 18 can be provided for each wall greening device 10, but Figures 1 and 2 show an example in which only one interlocking drive mechanism 18 is provided for a wall greening structure 100 made up of six wall greening devices 10 arranged in the height direction. When only one interlocking drive mechanism 18 is provided, the support posts 12 arranged in series by installing the wall greening devices 10 consecutively in the height direction are connected to each other, and the interlocking drive mechanism 18 is installed at the bottom end of these posts.

[0064] The interlocking drive mechanism 18 includes a pair of sprockets 181 provided in the vertical direction relative to the lower end of each support pillar 12, a plurality of endless chains 182, and a motor 183. The sprockets 181 are provided near the lower end of each of the four support pillars 12 arranged in parallel, and the motor 183 is disposed near the support pillar 12 located at the rightmost end on the page. In addition, the motor 183 has a motor shaft 184 disposed in parallel with the support pillar 12.

[0065] An endless chain 182 is wound around the motor shaft 184 and an upper sprocket 181 of the support column 12 located at the rightmost end on the page. A similar endless chain 182 is wound around either the upper or lower sprocket 181 of each of the adjacent support columns 12.

[0066] As a result, when the motor 183 is rotated, all of the posts 12 rotate in the same direction and at approximately the same angle. This makes it possible to rotate the multiple panels 13 provided on the wall greening structure 100 horizontally together with the posts 12 in unison and tilt them at the same angle, which is not only efficient but also makes it possible to maintain an excellent aesthetic appearance even when the panels 13 are rotated.

[0067] The interlocking drive mechanism 18 is not limited to the sprocket 181 and endless chain 182, but may use a pulley and belt, or a gear, or any other mechanism capable of transmitting the power of the motor 183 to the support posts 12. The interlocking drive mechanism 18 may be disposed in the middle or at the top of the wall greening structure 100. Furthermore, the interlocking drive mechanism 18 may be used to interlock any two or more of the four support posts 12 arranged in parallel.

[0068] <<<<Water supply equipment for planter 14>>>> Furthermore, the above-mentioned wall greening device 10 can be provided with a water supply tank (not shown) on the scaffolding board 15, and this water supply tank can be connected to the planter 14 to supply water. However, Figures 1 and 2 show an example in which a water supply facility 19 is provided for a wall greening structure 100 made up of six wall greening devices 10 arranged in the vertical direction.

[0069] In this case, as in the case where an interlocking drive mechanism 18 is provided, the wall greening devices 10 are installed continuously in the vertical direction, so that the serially arranged supports 12 are connected to each other, and the water supply equipment 19 is installed using these connected supports 12.

[0070] 1, the water supply equipment 19 includes a water supply tank 191 provided on the roof, a supply pipe 192 connected at one end to the water supply tank 191, and a branch pipe 193 branching off from the supply pipe 192. The supply pipe 192 is housed in the hollow portion of the support posts 12 arranged in series as shown in FIG. 2, and the other end is disposed in the support post 12 of the wall greening device 10 located at the lowest position.

[0071] As shown in Figure 2, the branch pipes 193 are arranged so as to penetrate each of the support posts 12 of the wall greening device 10, and their ends are connected to the planters 14. This makes it possible to supply water to the planters 14 from the water supply tank 191 via the supply pipes 192 and branch pipes 193. In this case, if an electromagnetic valve or the like is provided on the branch pipes 193, it becomes possible to adjust the amount of water supplied to each planter 14 as needed.

[0072] The wall greening structure 100 and wall greening device 10 of the present invention are not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the present invention.

[0073] For example, in this embodiment, a configuration in which adjacent panels 13 can all be horizontally rotated in the same direction has been exemplified. However, this is not limited to this, and each panel may be configured to be horizontally rotatable in either the forward or reverse direction. For example, as shown in Figure 10, for each adjacent panel 13, panel fixing portions 12a of supports 12 may be installed alternately on one side and the other side of frame body 131, and panels 13 may be horizontally rotated like doors.
