BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a wiring device capable of efficiently arranging and storing an outlet in an office or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art With the recent rapid development of office automation (OA) in offices and the like, many wirings have been routed to living spaces. However, if no countermeasures are taken, the wiring is likely to be exposed to the living space in unsightly situations, and it is likely to cause a decrease in office functionality such as crossing a passage. Therefore, in order to preferably perform such wiring processing, the wiring that is started up from the floor or drawn from a wall or the like is led to a wiring space formed under a top plate such as a desk to route the wiring from the floor to the desk. After properly concealing the portion and starting up from this wiring space to the wiring outlet opening to the top plate surface, connect the terminal end to the outlet fixed at the wiring outlet, and insert a word processor into the outlet of this outlet. Various types of OA equipment such as personal computers and personal computers are connected and used.

[0003] In this case, if the outlet is permanently installed at a fixed position on the surface of the top plate, the space used on the top plate is restricted even when the outlet is not used, and the appearance is easily impaired. Inconveniences such as the inability to change the position and the tendency for dust to accumulate in the insertion port easily occur. Therefore, in recent wiring apparatuses, a lid member is provided at a position for closing the wiring lead-out entrance, a rectangular opening window is formed in the lid member, and the holder can be dropped into the opening window from above and a holder can be mounted. In such a way, the holder at the mounting position is provided with an outlet having a use surface having an insertion port and a cover surface, and any one of the surfaces is selectively upwardly exposed at substantially the same position as the top plate surface. A structure that is configured so that it can be attached to an object has been considered.

[0004]

However, in such a configuration, in order to accurately attach and detach the holder, the opening window is formed slightly larger than the holder at the mounting position, and a part of the holder and the opening window are formed. It is necessary to secure a gap between the device and a part of the device so that the space can be used as an operation fee or an operation fee. For this reason, there is a problem that the appearance of the top plate surface around the holder mounting portion is impaired by the gap, and the mounting state of the holder is liable to be unstable, such as rattling, and the attaching / detaching operation is smoothly performed. There is a problem that it is difficult.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a method for fixing a holder between a use surface of a holder and a cover surface even if the holder is tightly attached to an opening window of a cover member. In order to facilitate replacement, the holder is attached to and detached from the lid member by a sliding operation.

[0006]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS That is, the wiring device of the present invention is provided with an opening window which is removably disposed at a position for closing a part of a wiring lead-out entrance opened on a top plate surface and partially opened to one side. And a holder which can be engaged with the opening window of the lid member from one side edge by a sliding operation and is equipped with an outlet, wherein the holder is an outlet of the outlet. A use surface and a cover surface for concealing the outlet from the outside, and selectively expose any one of the use surface and the cover surface upward at approximately the same height as the top plate surface. It is assumed that it is configured so that it can be attached.

[0007] With this configuration, if the lid member is removed from the top plate surface and one side edge of the opening window of the lid member is opened, the holder can be detachably attached to the opening window by sliding operation. There is no need to particularly form a gap between the opening window of the member and the holder to secure an operation allowance and an operation allowance. Also, the holder is engaged with the opening window of the lid member,
When installing the lid member at the position where the wiring lead-out entrance is closed,
One side edge of the opening window can be easily closed using the rear edge of the top plate main body or the like. For this reason, the present invention allows the holder to be closely and stably mounted on the opening window through a simple operation, resulting in a disadvantage that the appearance of the top plate surface around the holder mounting portion is impaired and the holder is rattled. Can be effectively eliminated. In particular, if the outlet is also configured to be able to be engaged with the holder by a sliding operation, the outlet and the holder are tightly tight without rattling according to the relationship between the opening window and the holder, and There is an effect that an attachment state with good attachment / detachment operability can be realized.

[0008] After securing such a good mounting state, the present invention comprises a use surface in which the holder exposes the outlet of the outlet upward and a lid surface for concealing the outlet from the outside. It is configured so that either the use surface or the lid surface can be selectively exposed upward at approximately the same position as the top plate surface and can be attached.

With such a configuration, for example, in a case where the wiring lead-out entrance exists over the entire width direction on the rear edge side of the top surface, it is necessary to move the wiring device arranged on the left end side from the right end side. Even when there is a case, if you move it as it is, the position of the wiring lead-in part of the outlet may interfere with the wiring of the plug inserted into the outlet of the outlet, just flip the outlet left and right with respect to the holder Thus, such interference can be easily avoided.

Still another mode is one in which an auxiliary wiring outlet is provided at a position adjacent to the opening window of the lid member so as to communicate with a space below the wiring outlet. With this configuration, the outlet is also inserted from the top plate through the auxiliary wire outlet from the top plate, even if the cover surface is arranged upward and the used surface is concealed in the space below the wiring outlet. Since the plug of the wiring can be inserted, various modes of use can be easily realized.

As a specific form of the wiring lead-out entrance, a wiring is formed over substantially the entire width of the top plate between a rear edge of the top plate main body and a back member disposed rearward of the rear edge. Are included. Then, with respect to such a wiring lead-out entrance, the use surface is exposed upward at substantially the same position as the top plate surface, and the holder is attached. It is effective to provide a retaining mechanism that is immovably engaged with the edge and the rear member located behind the edge. With this configuration, even if the operating force when attaching and detaching the plug to and from the outlet of the outlet acts on the lid member via the holder as an output force from the wiring lead-out entrance, the holder can be connected to the rear edge of the top plate and Since it is locked to the back member, it can be effectively prevented from being pulled out.

As a specific embodiment of the retaining mechanism, a pair of engaging claws in the holder, which can simultaneously protrude forward and backward, are provided. And a drive unit that performs a protruding / retracting operation by an operation from above, and the drive unit employs, for example, a rotating shaft having an engagement portion such as a tool at an upper portion,
An example in which a pair of engaging claws are integrally provided at a position opposed to the outer periphery of the rotation support shaft to cause the engaging claws to protrude and retract can be mentioned. With this configuration, when the outlet is in the use position, the driver and the coin are engaged with the engaging portion from above and rotated only, and the lid member is pulled out of the holder and the outlet together with the wiring outlet from the wiring outlet. It is possible to easily achieve both good operability of the retaining mechanism and good use of the outlet.

The outlet can be reversibly turned left and right between a first mounting position where the wiring lead-in portion is located on the left end side and a second mounting position where the wiring lead-in portion is located on the right end side. If this is the case, for example, when the wiring lead-out entrance exists over the entire width direction area on the rear edge side of the top plate surface, and when it is necessary to move the wiring device arranged on the left end side from the right end, Even in such a case that the position of the wiring lead-in part of the outlet may interfere with the wiring of the plug inserted into the outlet of the outlet if it is moved as it is, just turning the outlet left and right with respect to the holder causes such interference Can be easily avoided.

Furthermore, if an auxiliary wiring outlet communicating with the space below the wiring outlet is provided at a position adjacent to the opening window of the lid member, the cover surface is disposed upward and the used surface is located below the wiring outlet. The plug of the inserted wiring can be inserted from the top board through the auxiliary wiring outlet from the top plate even for the outlet concealed in the space, and it is possible to easily realize more various modes of use. it can.

If the wiring outlet is formed over substantially the entire width of the top plate between the rear edge of the top plate main body and the back member disposed at a position behind the rear edge, The degree of freedom in selecting the mounting position of the wiring device is improved. When the holder is attached with the working surface exposed upward at approximately the same position as the top plate surface, the holder cannot move up to the rear edge of the top plate body located in front of it and the back member located behind it If a retaining mechanism that engages with the outlet is provided, even if the operating force when attaching and detaching the plug to the outlet of the outlet acts on the lid member via the holder as the output force from the wiring lead-out port, the holder Is locked to the rear edge and the back member of the top plate, so that the removal can be effectively prevented.

A retaining mechanism is provided in the holder, and a pair of engaging claws which can be simultaneously protruded forward and rearward thereof, and a pair of engaging claws which are also present in the holder and are protruded and retracted by operation from above. And a driving unit for
The retaining mechanism according to the present invention can be made to have a simple structure and exhibit effective effects. If the driving unit is a rotating shaft having an engaging portion such as a tool above, and a pair of engaging claws are integrally provided at a position facing the outer periphery of the rotating shaft, an outlet is used. When it is in the position, simply screwing a screwdriver or coin into the engagement section from above and rotating it will prevent the lid member from being pulled out of the holder and outlet as well as the wiring lead-out entrance, preventing it from falling out It is possible to easily achieve both good operability of the mechanism and good use of the outlet.
