Top-panel-equipped furniture and furniture system

Abstract

Top-panel-equipped furniture ( 1 ) of the present application is provided with a pair of support structures ( 10 ) which are disposed apart from each other in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction in which they face a pair of top panels ( 14 A, 14 B) and support the pair of top panels ( 14 A, 14 B) such that heights thereof can be adjusted. The support structure ( 10 ) includes a base member ( 15 ) placed on a floor surface and extending along a direction so as to face the pair of top panels ( 14 A, 14 B), and a pair of extendable legs ( 16 A, 16 B) which stand upward from both end positions of the base member ( 15 ) in an extension direction thereof and support each of the pair of top panels ( 14 A, 14 B) such that the heights thereof is adjustable.

1 . Top-panel-equipped furniture comprising:
 a pair of top panels having working surfaces on each upper surface thereof and disposed to be opposite to each other; and   a pair of support structures which are disposed apart from each other in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction in which they face the pair of top panels and support the pair of top panels such that heights thereof is adjustable,   wherein the support structure includes a base member placed on a floor surface and extending along a direction so as to face the pair of top panels, and a pair of extendable legs which stand upward from both end positions of the base member in an extension direction thereof and support each of the pair of top panels such that the heights thereof is adjustable.   
     
     
         2 . The top-panel-equipped furniture according to  claim 1 , wherein a vicinity of a central portion in the extension direction of the base member on a lower surface of the top panel is supported by the extendable legs. 
     
     
         3 . The top-panel-equipped furniture according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a connecting body which connects substantially intermediate portions in the extension direction of the base member of each of the support structures to each other.   
     
     
         4 . The top-panel-equipped furniture according to  claim 3 , wherein the connecting body has a column portion standing upward from a substantially intermediate position in the extension direction of the base member of each of the support structures, and an installation portion placed between the upper portions of the respective column portions. 
     
     
         5 . The top-panel-equipped furniture according to  claim 4 , wherein a wiring storage space is provided inside the installation portion. 
     
     
         6 . The top-panel-equipped furniture according to  claim 4 , wherein a flat plate-like panel body which partitions between the pair of the top panels stands upward on the upper surface of the installation portion. 
     
     
         7 . The top-panel-equipped furniture according to  claim 6 , wherein a wiring insertion portion is provided on the upper surface of the installation portion to allow the wiring storage space inside the installation portion and the outside to communicate with each other at the front and rear of the panel body. 
     
     
         8 . A furniture system comprising:
 top-panel-equipped furniture which includes a pair of top panel portions having a first top panel portion and a second top panel portion which are disposed opposite to each other, and leg members configured to integrally support the pair of top panel portions; and   a partitioning unit placed on a floor surface below the pair of top panel portions to partition the first top panel portion side and the second top panel portion side.   
     
     
         9 . The furniture system according to  claim 8 , wherein the partitioning unit is self-supported on the floor surface. 
     
     
         10 . The furniture system according to  claim 8 , wherein the partitioning unit comprises:
 a partition body disposed between the pair of top panel portions; and   a support placed on the floor surface below the pair of top panel portions and detachably connected to the partition body to support the partition body.   
     
     
         11 . The furniture system according to  claim 10 , wherein the leg members are respectively provided at both end portions in a width direction orthogonal to each other in a horizontal plane with respect to a direction in which the pair of the top panel portions are opposite to each other,
 the support is disposed between the leg members respectively provided at both end portions of the pair of top panel portions in the width direction.   
     
     
         12 . The furniture system according to  claim 11 , wherein the partition body has a planar shape which is continuous in the width direction and is continuous in the width direction within a plane orthogonal to the floor surface. 
     
     
         13 . The furniture system according to  claim 8 , wherein the partitioning unit includes a positioning mechanism which is able to perform positioning with respect to the leg members. 
     
     
         14 . The furniture system according to  claim 8 , wherein the leg member includes:
 support legs which support each of the pair of top panel portions; and   a connecting member which extends in a direction in which the top panel portions are opposite to each other and connects the support legs of the first top panel portion and the support legs of the second top panel portion to each other.   
     
     
         15 . The furniture system according to  claim 14 , wherein the support legs are vertically extendable and contractible, and the height of the top panel portion is adjustable.
