[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the method for manufacturing a sash according to claim 1 includes a sash frame and an external frame. The sash frame includes an attachment piece for attaching to a building body. A plurality of types of external frames are prepared, and there is a step of selecting any one type of external frame, and a step of attaching the selected external frame to the sash frame.

Effects of the Invention

[0006] According to the above configuration, the present invention enables the manufacture of various sash frames by standardizing the structure of the sash frame at the portion where the shoji is attached and simply selecting an external frame to be combined with it.

A customer or an operator has a plurality of types of the above-described external frame 3 (for shutter) and external frame 3 (for shutter), and selects one type of the external frame 3. There may be a plurality of types of the external frame 3 (for shutter), and there may be a plurality of types of the external frame 3 (for shutter). Also, there may be only a plurality of types of the external frame 3 for shutter, or there may be only a plurality of types of the external frame 3 (for shutter). Further, the external frame 3 may have an attachment 2 as its constituent member. Part (a part of the upper, lower, left, and right frame members) or all of the frame member, which is one of the constituent members of the external frame 3, may or may not have the attachment 2. The attachment 2 is a constituent member of the external frame 3. When the external frame 3 includes a frame body provided with the attachment 2, by selecting the external frame 3 by the customer, it means that the attachment 2 corresponding to the selected external frame 3 is also selected. A customer or an operator can freely select a desired one from among a number of variations of the external frame 3.

[0041] On the other hand, as described in the "first step", the sash frame 1 (when there is a body attachment member 4, the body attachment member 4 is also included in the sash frame 1) is common in any embodiment. The customer does not need to select the sash frame 1. The third step is a step of attaching any one type of the selected external frame 3 to the sash frame 1. In this way, by attaching the external frame 3 to the common sash frame 1, the sash A (for a window shutter) or the sash B (for a shutter) is manufactured.

[0042] Note that the third step does not define the assembly procedure. Instead, it means that after the step of selecting the external frame 3, the assembly of the constituent members of the sash frame 1 and the constituent members of the external frame 3 in the second step is performed. The third step of the present invention does not mean attaching after framing the sash frame 1 and the external frame 3.

[0043] (Operation and effect of the first embodiment and the second embodiment) The sash A and the sash B have a common sash frame 1 having the body mounting piece 100 (mounting piece) as described above. Since the external frame 3 for a window shutter and the external frame 3 for a shutter are prepared, the operator only needs to select the external frame 3 of either specification and can attach it to the sash frame 1 having a common structural shape. The embodiment enables reduction of the member cost of the sash (A or B).

[0044] Also, an aspect in which there are a plurality of types of only the external frame 3 for a window shutter or only a plurality of types of the external frame 3 for a shutter is included in the present invention. Of course, an aspect in which there are a plurality of types of the external frame 3 for both a window shutter and a shutter is included in the present invention. The sashes (A, B) of the embodiment can provide a variety of product groups to customers by preparing a large number of types of the external frame 3, such as a plurality of types only for shutters or a plurality of types only for window shutters. Further, conventionally, when it was desired to change an existing sash with a window shutter to a sash with a shutter device, it was necessary to replace it with a new sash together with the sash frame integrated with the window shutter. In the embodiment of the present invention, it is only necessary to replace the external frame 3 of the sash A with that for a shutter, and it is possible to greatly reduce the construction effort.

[0045] The manufacturing method of the sash (A or B) according to the embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and design changes and the like within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention are also included in the present invention.

[0046] In addition, as long as there are no particular contradictions or problems in the purpose, configuration, etc. of the above-described embodiments, it is possible to cross-use and combine each other's technologies.
