This prevents the outdoor side of the new upper frame 4, i.e., the outdoor-side member 42, from sagging. In the fitting 1, the outdoor-side fixing member 55 fixed to the outdoor-side member 52 of the new sill 5 is fixed to the first sill plate portion 235 of the existing sill 23 via the indoor-side fixing member 54. Therefore, by fixing the indoor-side fixing member 54 to the first sill plate portion 235 of the existing sill 23, both the indoor-side member 51 and the outdoor-side member 52 can be fixed to the existing sill 23. This prevents the outdoor side of the newly installed lower frame 5, i.e., the outdoor side component 52, from sagging.
[0066] The indoor-side fixing member 44 serves both as a member for fixing the indoor-side member 41 to the existing upper frame 22 and as a member for fixing the outdoor-side fixing member 45, which fixes the outdoor-side member 42, to the existing upper frame 22. Compared to the case where a member for fixing the indoor-side member 41 to the existing upper frame 22 and a member for fixing the outdoor-side fixing member 45 to the existing upper frame 22 are separately provided, the number of parts of the fitting 1 can be reduced, making construction management and quality control easier.
[0067] As described above, the outdoor-side fixing member 45 has a Z-shaped cross section. The existing frame fixing portion 451, which is fixed to the indoor-side member 41, extends downward from the indoor-side end of the connection portion 453. The new frame fixing portion 452, which is fixed to the outdoor-side member 42, extends upward from the outdoor-side end of the connection portion 453. Therefore, if the outdoor-side member 42 attempts to displace downward due to its weight, causing the new frame fixing portion 452 to move downward and the outdoor-side fixing member 45 to rotate so that the existing frame fixing portion 451 moves upward, the existing frame fixing portion 451 is pressed against the fixing plate portion 413 and the upper projection plate portion 422, restricting the rotation of the outdoor-side fixing member 45. This also restricts the new frame fixing portion 452 from moving downward, preventing the outdoor-side member 42 from sagging downward.
[0068] As described above, the outdoor-side end of the lower surface of the connecting portion 453 of the outdoor-side fixing member 45 contacts the upper surface of the protruding piece 424a of the outdoor-side member 42. The corner 454 formed by the new frame fixing portion 452 and the connecting portion 453 of the outdoor-side fixing member 45 is arranged along the receiving corner 424b formed by the upper protruding portion 424 and the protruding piece 424a of the outdoor-side member 42. The middle portion of the lower surface of the connecting portion 453 in the indoor / outdoor direction contacts the upper end of the upper protruding portion 414. This restrains displacement of the outdoor-side fixing member 45, preventing the outdoor-side member 42 from sagging downward. Positioning the outdoor-side fixing member 45 is easy.
[0069] As described above, the outdoor-side fixing member 55 has a Z-shaped cross section. The existing frame fixing portion 551, which is fixed to the indoor-side member 51, extends upward from the indoor-side end of the connection portion 553. The new frame fixing portion 552, which is fixed to the outdoor-side member 52, extends downward from the outdoor-side end of the connection portion 553. Therefore, when the outdoor-side member 52 attempts to displace downward due to its weight, causing the new frame fixing portion 552 to move downward and the outdoor-side fixing member 45 to rotate so that the existing frame fixing portion 551 moves upward, the existing frame fixing portion 551 is pressed against the fixing plate portion 513 and the new frame fixing portion 542, restricting the rotation of the outdoor-side fixing member 55. This also restricts the new frame fixing portion 552 from moving downward, preventing the outdoor-side member 52 from sagging downward.
[0070] As described above, the vicinity of the outdoor end on the upper surface of the connection part 553 of the outdoor fixing member 55 is in contact with the lower surfaces of the bridge connection part 511 of the indoor side member 51 and the bridge connection part 521 of the outdoor side member 52. The outdoor side surface of the new frame fixing part 552 of the outdoor side fixing member 55 is in contact with the indoor side surface of the lower protrusion part 524 of the outdoor side member 52. The existing frame fixing part 551 of the outdoor side fixing member 55 is in contact with the fixing plate part 513 of the indoor side member 51. This makes it easy to position the outdoor side fixing member 55 relative to the indoor side member 51 and the outdoor side member 52.
