[0034] The door 80 described above is configured as a swing door, with the trailing edge of the door body 70 rotatably supported (pivoted) via three hinges H (see FIG. 1) on a door frame (not shown) provided at an indoor entrance of a building such as an office or commercial facility. The door 80 is also configured so that it can be electrically locked and unlocked, for example, by card authentication or remote controller operation, using an electric lock 72 on the leading edge that is electrically connected to an electric fitting 71 on the trailing edge via a wiring cord L.
[0035] Next, an example of a construction method including a wiring method for the door 80 of this embodiment will be described.
[0036] First, the wiring cord L of the electric fitting 71 is passed through the second wiring passage Pb from the rear end side of the door 80 via the electric fitting installation section C, and after the wiring cord L is completely pulled out from the ceiling side of the door 80, the electric fitting 71 is attached to the electric fitting installation section C from the side of the rear end side of the door 80.
[0037] Next, the pulled-out wiring cord L is passed through the first wiring passage Pa on the leading edge side of the door 80, and the wiring cord L is pulled out slightly toward the leading edge side of the door 80 via the electric lock installation section R. After connecting the wiring cord L to the electric lock (box lock) 72, the electric lock 72 is attached to the electric lock installation section R from the side of the leading edge side of the door 80.
[0038] Thereafter, the remaining portion of the wiring cord L is placed and fixed in the third wiring passage Pc.
[0039] Finally, after the handle 73 and key cylinder 74 are attached to the electric lock 72, the door 80 is attached via three hinges H to a door frame provided at an indoor entrance, for example.
[0040] In this manner, the electric lock 72 and the like can be attached to the door 80. In the present embodiment, the installation method in which the remaining portion of the wiring cord L is placed in the third wiring passage Pc has been exemplified, but the remaining portion of the wiring cord L may also be placed in the electric fitting installation portion C, the upper housing portion 61a of the channel 61, or the like.
[0041] As described above, the door 80 of this embodiment includes an electric fitting installation section C for installing the electric fitting 71 on the trailing edge of the pivotally supported door body 70, an electric lock installation section R for installing the electric lock 72 on the leading edge of the door body 70, and a third wiring passage Pc for accommodating the wiring cord L that electrically connects the electric lock 72 and the electric fitting 71 on the ceiling side of the door body 70, thereby enabling the construction of a door 80 on which the electric lock 72 is installed. Here, the door 80 includes a light admitting section S that communicates with the ceiling-side end of the door body 70, but the light admitting section S includes a channel 61 for accommodating the wiring cord L, which shields the wiring cord. This makes the wiring cord L invisible from the light admitting section S of the door body 70, thereby improving the appearance of the light admitting section S in a door 80 on which the electric lock 72 is installed.
[0042] Furthermore, according to the door 80 of this embodiment, the light-transmitting panel 60 is provided in the light-admitting section S, so that light can be introduced into the interior of the room through the light-admitting panel 60 in the light-admitting section S.
[0043] Furthermore, according to the door 80 of this embodiment, the channel 61 is provided with an upper storage section 61a that opens to the ceiling side and stores the wiring cord L, and a lower storage section 61b that opens to the floor side and stores the ceiling side of the light transmitting panel 60, so that the single component, the channel 61, can store the wiring cord L to hide it from view, and also store the ceiling side end of the light transmitting panel 60, improving the appearance of the ceiling side end of the light transmitting panel 60.
[0044] Second Embodiment In the first embodiment described above, a door having a lighting section that communicates with the ceiling and floor ends of the door body was exemplified, but the present invention can also be applied to doors having a lighting section that communicates only with the ceiling end of the door body.
[0045] In the first embodiment described above, a door having a light-admitting panel in the light-admitting section was exemplified, but the present invention can also be applied to doors in which the light-admitting section is composed of a space and no light-admitting panel is provided. [Industrial Applicability]
[0046] As described above, the present invention is extremely useful because it can make the wiring cord of the electric lock invisible from the lighting portion of the door body. [Explanation of symbols]
