As a solution to this problem,
There is one in which a horizontal shelf or the like is formed on a wall surface formed by a partition or the like, and an information input device can be placed on the upper surface of the horizontal shelf or the like for use. In this case, when the information input device is not used, However, there is a risk that it may interfere with the work and people passing near the partition.

Therefore, a device is known in which the horizontal shelf or the like can be housed in a wall surface of a partition or the like. However, since the horizontal shelf or the like cannot be housed together with the information input device, the information input device is eventually installed. When not in use, it was an obstacle to work and traffic on the wall of the partition.

The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an information input device such as a keyboard or a tablet can be housed in a partition when not in use, and can be taken out from the partition when used. It is intended to provide a partition with an information input device.

[0006]

A partition with an information input device according to the present invention comprises a partition body and a mounting panel which is detachably mounted on the partition body and constitutes the surface of the partition body. At a predetermined position of the constituent panel material, an opening / closing member having an information input device is rotated at least between a vertical position which is substantially flush with other mounting panels constituting the partition surface and a horizontal position which is a use position. The information input device pivotally mounted so as to be movable and attached to the opening / closing member is housed in the partition body at the vertical position.

In the partition with an information input device according to the present invention, it is preferable that the opening / closing member is held in a horizontal position by a supporting member attached to the panel material when opened.

In the partition with an information input device of the present invention, it is preferable that an information input device such as a keyboard or a tablet is detachably attached to the opening / closing member by elastic locking means.

In the partition with an information input device of the present invention, it is preferable that the information input device such as a keyboard or a tablet is integrated with or fixed to the opening / closing member.

[0010]

[Function] By opening and closing the opening / closing member whose lower end portion is pivotally attached to a predetermined position of the panel material of the mounting panel detachably attached to the partition body so as to be in a horizontal position with respect to other panels, The information input device attached to the upper surface becomes usable, and the information input device is sandwiched between the attachment panel and the partition body by closing the opening / closing member so as to be flush with other panels. It can be housed in a space formed between the panel and another panel facing each other. Further, the installation and the position change of the information input device to the partition body can be easily performed for each mounting panel.

Since the opening / closing member is held in the horizontal position through the supporting member attached to the panel material when opened, the information input device can be used in a stable position by opening the opening / closing member. can do.

Since the information input device such as a keyboard or tablet is detachably attached to the opening / closing member by the elastic locking means, the user can easily attach the information input device to the opening / closing member as needed. It can also be removed and used externally.

Since the opening / closing member and the information input device such as a keyboard and a tablet are integrally or firmly fixed, the information input device can be installed so as to be able to be housed in a thin partition or the like.
