Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a support structure for an outdoor installation. [Background technology]

[0002] For example, as in Patent Document 1, a known technique is to attach a gate to a gate sleeve by forming a protrusion for attaching a gate hinge along the longitudinal direction of one side of the support pillar installed at a distance from the ground on the side where the gate is to be attached, and then suspending the gate via a hinge base attached to the protrusion. The gate sleeve is constructed by stretching a plate-shaped base material so as to cover the periphery of the support pillar except for the protrusion, forming a gate sleeve base, and laying brick tiles on the surface of the base material.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 11-247568 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In the case of conventional gate support structures, in order to support the gate, a gate sleeve must be formed using a support post that is integrally formed with a protrusion for attaching the gate hinge. Therefore, it must be constructed separately from other fences built on the exterior, which can result in relatively high construction costs. Therefore, there has been a need to develop technology that can stably support a gate even with a gate sleeve that does not have an integrally formed protrusion for attaching the hinge. Furthermore, not only gates but also outdoor installations such as air conditioner outdoor unit stands, eaves, clothes drying devices, awnings, etc., when mounted on a wall, if stress is placed on the parts supporting the outdoor installation, they are more likely to deteriorate over time. If deterioration over time occurs, it will affect the mounting stability of the outdoor installation. Therefore, there has been a demand for the development of technology that can ensure sufficient support strength when supporting outdoor installations on a wall.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to improve the support strength when supporting an outdoor installation object, thereby improving the mounting stability of the outdoor installation object. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The invention described in claim 1 is a support structure for an outdoor installation object 14a (e.g., a gate device 14a), and as shown in, for example, FIGS. 1 to 6, the outdoor installation object 14a is supported on a wall 13a (e.g., a first shielding wall 13a) via a base bracket 30, The wall 13a includes a wall body having a wall surface 19a to which the base bracket 30 is attached, and an exterior material 17 that covers the wall surface 19a of the wall body, The base bracket 30 is a main body portion 31 disposed in a state of protruding from the wall surface 19a of the wall main body; a fixing piece 33 formed integrally with the main body 31 and fixed to the wall surface 19a, A through-hole 17e through which the main body 31 passes is formed in the exterior material 17 at a position where the main body 31 of the base bracket 30 is disposed, A gap between the periphery of the through-hole 17e formed in the exterior material 17 and the main body 31 is filled with a joint material 17d, The tip end surface of the main body 31 in the protruding direction protrudes outward from the surface of the exterior material 17, The outdoor object 14a is characterized in that it is attached to a tip surface 32 (fixed surface 32) of the main body 31 in the protruding direction.

[0007] According to the invention of claim 1, the fixing piece 33 formed integrally with the main body 31 is fixed to the wall surface 19a, and the outdoor installation object 14a is attached to the tip surface 32 in the protruding direction of the main body 31 that is disposed in a state of protruding from the wall surface 19a of the wall main body, so that the outdoor installation object 14a is supported on the wall 13a via such a base bracket 30, and less strain is placed on the wall main body. As a result, it is possible to improve the support strength when supporting the outdoor installation object 14a, and to improve the mounting stability of the outdoor installation object 14a. Furthermore, the protruding tip surface 32 of the main body 31 protrudes outward beyond the surface of the exterior material 17 covering the wall body, so that when the outdoor installation object 14a is attached to the protruding tip surface 32 of the main body 31, the outdoor installation object 14a and the exterior material 17 do not come into contact with each other. Furthermore, the gap between the periphery of the through-hole 17e formed in the exterior material 17 and the main body 31 is filled with the joint material 17d, thereby preventing water from entering through the through-hole 17e. This protects the portion of the wall main body to which the base bracket 30 is fixed from rainwater, preventing deterioration of the wall main body and, as a result, improving the mounting stability of the outdoor-installed object 14a.

[0008] The invention described in claim 2 provides, for example, as shown in Figs. 1 to 6, a support structure for an outdoor installation object 14a according to claim 1, The fixing piece 33 is characterized in that it extends along the surface direction of the wall surface 19 a and protrudes outward perpendicular to the protruding direction of the main body portion 31 .

[0009] According to the invention recited in claim 2, the fixing pieces 33 extend along the surface direction of the wall surface 19a and outward perpendicular to the protruding direction of the main body 31, so that the base bracket 30 can be reliably fixed by utilizing the narrow gap between the wall surface 19a of the wall main body and the exterior material 17. This improves the support strength when supporting the outdoor object 14a, and improves the mounting stability of the outdoor object 14a.

[0010] The invention described in claim 3 is, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, in the support structure for an outdoor installation described in claim 1, The main body 31 is formed in a box shape and has a hollow portion. The main body 31 is characterized in that one or more through holes are formed in the portions 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, and 32 that form the side surfaces of the main body 31 for passing electric wires 45 or communication lines therethrough.

[0011] According to the invention described in claim 3, the main body 31 is formed in a box shape and has a hollow portion, and one or more through holes for passing the electric wires 45 or communication lines are formed in the portions 31a, 31b, 31c, 31d, and 32 constituting the side surfaces of the main body 31, so that the electric wires 45 or communication lines can be passed through an outdoor installation. When passing the electric wires 45 or communication lines through, it is possible to minimize exposure to the outdoors, so that deterioration over time of the electric wires 45 or communication lines can be suppressed.

[0012] The invention described in claim 4 is, for example, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4 to 6, in the support structure for the outdoor installation object 14a described in claim 1, The wall body is configured to include a structural member P (column 43) of the building 2 or an adjustment member 19 integrally provided on the structural member P, The base bracket 30 is characterized in that it is fixed to the structural material P (pillar 43) or the adjustment material 19.

[0013] According to the invention of claim 4, the wall main body is configured to include a structural member P (column 43) of the building 2 or an adjustment member 19 provided integrally with the structural member P, and the base bracket 30 is fixed to the structural member P (column 43) or the adjustment member 19, which improves the mounting stability of the base bracket 30 itself compared to when the base bracket 30 is fixed to another member that does not bear the force applied to the structure of the building 2. This improves the support strength of the outdoor object 14a attached to the base bracket 30, and improves the mounting stability of the outdoor object 14a.

[0014] The invention described in claim 5 provides, as shown in, for example, Figs. 1 and 2, a support structure for an outdoor installation object 14a according to any one of claims 1 to 4, The wall 13a is formed with a gate 14, which is an entrance and exit for people to enter and exit. The outdoor installation object is a gate 14a, and the gate 14a has a support post 20, a plurality of hinge portions 21 provided at intervals in the longitudinal direction of the support post 20, and a gate body 22 (23) supported so as to be rotatable via the plurality of hinge portions 21, The base brackets 30 are provided at intervals in the vertical direction at a portion of the wall surface 19a of the wall 13a that is located at one side edge or both side edges of the gate 14, and the support pillars 20 of the gate door 14a are attached to these base brackets 30.

[0015] According to the invention described in claim 5, a plurality of base brackets 30 are provided at intervals in the height direction on the wall surface 19a of the wall 13a at a portion located on one or both side edges of the gate 14, and the support posts 20 of the gate 14a are attached to these plurality of base brackets 30, so that the support posts 20 of the gate 14a are provided spanning the plurality of base brackets 30. This makes it possible to improve the support strength of the gate 14a and improve the mounting stability of the gate 14a compared to, for example, when the support posts 20 are attached to a single base bracket 30.

[0016] The invention described in claim 6 is, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, in the support structure for an outdoor installation according to any one of claims 1 to 4, The wall 60 has an opening 61 formed therein, The outdoor installation object is disposed along the upper edge of the opening 61 and is set to be longer than the length between both side edges of the opening 61, The base brackets 30 are provided at the upper end positions of both side edges of the opening 61 on the wall surface of the wall 60, Furthermore, a connecting bracket 62 is fixed to the base bracket 30, and the upper end of the connecting bracket 62 is located above the upper edge of the opening 61. The outdoor installation is characterized in that it is supported by being bridged between the upper ends of the connecting brackets 62.

[0017] According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, the base brackets 30 are provided at the upper end positions of both side edges of the opening 61 on the wall surface of the wall 60. Furthermore, connecting brackets 62, the upper ends of which are located above the upper edge of the opening 61, are fixed to the base brackets 30. The outdoor installation object is supported by spanning the upper ends of the connecting brackets 62. Therefore, the outdoor installation object can be positioned above the upper edge of the opening 61 and along the upper edge of the opening 61. That is, for example, even if the wall 60 has a restriction that prevents the base brackets 30 from being fixed above the position of the opening 61, the connecting brackets 62 can be used to change the installation position of the outdoor installation object upward, allowing the outdoor installation object to be positioned above the opening 61. Furthermore, the connecting brackets 62 can improve the installation stability of the outdoor installation object. [Effects of the Invention]

[0018] According to the present invention, the support strength when supporting an outdoor installation object can be improved, and the mounting stability of the outdoor installation object can be improved. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0020] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, the embodiments described below are subject to various limitations that are technically preferable for implementing the present invention, but the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments and illustrated examples. Note that the directions in the following embodiments and illustrated examples are set solely for the convenience of explanation.

[0021] In Fig. 1, reference numeral 1 indicates a residential site. The site 1 includes a first site 1A on which a house 2 is built, a second site 1B facing a road (not shown) and used as a parking lot, and a third site 1C extending from one end of the second site 1B to the back (north side) of the site 1 in the depth direction. The second site 1B is located adjacent to the south side of the first site 1A, and the third site 1C is located adjacent to the east side of the first site 1A. In other words, the second site 1B and the third site 1C are located so as to form an L-shape in plan view, and the first site 1A is located at the inner corner of the second site 1B and the third site 1C which are formed in an L-shape in plan view.

[0022] The part of the second site 1B along the southern edge, located opposite the first site 1A, is the road surface 1D of the entire site 1. In other words, the area south of the road surface 1D is a road used by people and vehicles. Therefore, the second site 1B is often used as a parking space. Concrete slabs have been laid on the second site 1B. A fence has also been built around the perimeter of the site 1.

[0023] The southern side of the third site 1C is often used as a parking space and bicycle parking space, etc. A concrete slab has been laid on the southern part of this third site 1C. The north side of the third site 1C is used, for example, as a planting space, a vegetable garden space, a storage space, a laundry drying space, etc., but is not limited to this.

[0024] The house 2 of this embodiment is constructed using a panel construction method in which building components such as walls, floors, and roofs are panelized in advance at a factory and then these panels P are assembled and constructed at the construction site, but it can also be applied to buildings made of wood, steel, reinforced concrete, etc. using conventional frame construction or wall construction methods.

[0025] A panel P (wooden architectural panel P) is a hollow structure in which vertical and horizontal frame materials Fm are assembled into a rectangular shape, and auxiliary crosspieces C are attached appropriately (for example, vertically and horizontally) inside the rectangular frame to form a frame body F, and a surface material B such as plywood is attached to one or both sides of this frame body F. Furthermore, the hollow interior is filled with insulating material such as glass wool or rock wool.

[0026] The house 2 includes a two-story house body 3 built on a foundation 2a, and a sloped roof 7 provided on the house body 3. The main body 3 of the house is longer in the north-south direction than in the east-west direction in plan view, and the sloping roof 7 is a beckoning roof that is also long in the north-south direction like the main body 3 of the house.

[0027] The sloped roof 7, which is a beckoning roof, has a ridge 7a extending in the east-west direction, a south roof surface 7b located on the south side of the ridge 7a, and a north roof surface 7c located on the north side of the ridge 7a. In this embodiment, the south roof surface 7b and the north roof surface 7c have a 1 / 2 inclination, i.e., the south roof surface 7b and the north roof surface 7c are set to the same inclination angle.

[0028] The length of the entire south-side roof surface 7b in the direction of the roof flow is set to be longer than the length of the entire north-side roof surface 7c in the direction of the roof flow. The south roof surface 7b is L-shaped in plan view. That is, the south roof surface 7b has a long portion extending to the eaves and a short portion extending to the eaves. More specifically, the south roof surface 7b of the sloping roof 7 has a first roof section 8, which has a long length from the ridge 7a to the first eaves edge 8a, and a second roof section 9, which has a short length from the ridge 7a to the second eaves edge 9a. The first roof section 8 and the second roof section 9 are adjacent to each other and integrally formed to form the same roof surface 7b. That is, the south roof surface 7b is approximately L-shaped in plan view. The first eaves edge 8a and the second eaves edge 9a are connected in a crank-like manner via the ridge 8b, which is the eastern end of the first roof section 8. The length from the ridge 7a to the second eaves 9a in the second roof portion 9 is set equal to the length from the ridge 7a to the north eaves on the north roof surface 7c. Furthermore, a solar cell array having a plurality of solar cell modules may be installed on the upper surface of the south roof surface 7b.

[0029] The main body 3 of the house is roughly divided into a western portion 3a located directly below the first roof portion 8 as described above, and an eastern portion 3b located directly below the second roof portion 9 as described above. That is, the main body 3 of the house itself is shaped according to the difference in size between the length to the first eaves portion 8a and the length to the second eaves portion 9a on the south roof surface 7b. In other words, the western portion 3a located directly below the first roof portion 8 is longer in the north-south direction than the eastern portion 3b located directly below the second roof portion 9. In other words, the eastern portion 3b located directly below the second roof portion 9 is shorter in the north-south direction than the western portion 3a located directly below the first roof portion 8.

[0030] On the first site 1A on which such a house 2 is constructed, an outdoor living room 11 is provided under the eaves of the first eaves portion 8a of the first roof portion 8 as an outdoor space that is used as a place where residents usually spend their time, similar to an indoor living room.

[0031] Also, within the first site 1A, under the eaves of the second eaves portion 9a of the second roof portion 9, a garden portion 12 is provided as a semi-outdoor space surrounded by a screening wall 13 within the first site 1A. Garden 12 is surrounded on all four sides by the eastern side of western portion 3a of main body 3, the southern side of eastern portion 3b, and an L-shaped screen wall 13 in plan view. The upper part of garden 12 is open to the sky except for the area covered by sloped roof 7.

[0032] An entrance doorway 4b is provided in the east side portion 3b of the main body 3 of the house, facing the garden 12. More specifically, the exterior wall 4 facing south in the east side portion 3b (i.e., the first exterior wall 4) has a wall surface that spans the upper and lower floors. An opening is formed in part of the first floor portion of the exterior wall 4, and the entrance doorway 4b, which is opened and closed by a front door, is formed in the exterior wall portion located behind the opening. Garden 12 faces this entrance 4b. In other words, when you go outside through entrance 4b, you will find garden 12 there, and the entrance of main house 3 and garden 12 are directly connected.

[0033] The shielding wall 13, which surrounds the garden area 12 together with the eastern side of the western part 3a and the southern side of the eastern part 3b of the main house body 3, comprises a first shielding wall 13a located on the southern side, a second shielding wall 13b located on the western side, and a third shielding wall 13c located on the northern side.

[0034] The first shielding wall 13a is arranged parallel to the exterior wall 4 (i.e., the first exterior wall 4) facing south in the east side portion 3b of the main body 3 of the house. The first shielding wall 13a is also arranged parallel to or in the same straight line as the exterior wall 5 (i.e., the second exterior wall 5) facing south in the west side portion 3a of the main body 3 of the house. Furthermore, the first shielding wall 13a is arranged perpendicular to the exterior wall 6 (i.e., the third exterior wall 6) facing east in the east side portion 3b of the main body 3 of the house in a plan view. In other words, the first shielding wall 13a is arranged so that it appears to be aligned with the second exterior wall 5 when viewed from the road side. The height dimension of the first shielding wall 13 a is set to be substantially equal to the height dimension of the second outer wall 5 .

[0035] The second shielding wall 13b is disposed perpendicular to the first shielding wall 13a in a plan view. More specifically, the eastern end of the first shielding wall 13a and the southern end of the second shielding wall 13b are integrally connected, and the second shielding wall 13b extends north from the eastern end of the first shielding wall 13a in a plan view. The northern end of the second shielding wall 13b is located north of the ridge 7a. The second shielding wall 13b is disposed parallel to the third exterior wall 6 and along the eastern side of the eastern portion 3b of the main body 3 of the house. The height dimension of the second shielding wall 13b is set to be equal to the height dimension of the first shielding wall 13a. The portion of second shielding wall 13b located north of entrance 4b functions as an exterior wall of main house 3. In other words, the portion of second shielding wall 13b located south of entrance 4b functions as shielding wall 13.

[0036] In plan view, third shielding wall 13c is disposed perpendicular to second shielding wall 13b and parallel to first shielding wall 13a. More specifically, the north end of second shielding wall 13b and the east end of third shielding wall 13c are integrally connected, and third shielding wall 13c extends west from the north end of second shielding wall 13b in plan view. The west end of third shielding wall 13c is connected to the east side of east portion 3b of main body 3 of the house. The height dimension of the third shielding wall 13c is set to be equal to the height dimension of the second shielding wall 13b. The third shielding wall 13c functions as an outer wall of the main body 3 of the house.

[0037] Of the thus configured shielding walls 13, first shielding wall 13a on the south side is provided with gate 14 as an entrance connecting garden 12 with the road side (the entrance approach 1E side), gate door 14a for opening and closing gate 14, delivery box 15, and nameplate 16 with an intercom. Gate 14 is located directly opposite entrance 4b, and delivery box 15 and nameplate 16 are located next to gate 14, one above the other. The road side of gate 14 and gate door 14a forms entrance approach 1E, which crosses the southern end of first site 1A and second site 1B to road surface 1D. Entrance approach 1E extends to road surface 1D along the east side of outdoor living room 11. In other words, garden 12 is located between entrance door 4b of main house 3 and entrance approach 1E.

[0038] Garden 12 can be accessed from the outside through gate 14, and is surrounded by screen wall 13, making it an ideal place for children to play or for elderly people to sit on a bench and chat. Therefore, garden 12 is a relatively open and public space where residents spend their daily lives, yet it is also used as a place that effectively blocks views from outside and provides a sense of privacy.

[0039] [Gate support structure] The shielding wall 13 is provided integrally with the main house 3. Therefore, like the main house 3, this shielding wall 13 is also made of architectural wood panels P. The western end of the first shielding wall 13a is integrally connected to the architectural wood panel P that constitutes the third exterior wall 6. In addition, the second shielding wall 13b and the third shielding wall 13c function as exterior walls of the main house 3 as described above, and are originally made of architectural wood panels P. The shielding wall 13 is covered with a moisture-permeable waterproof sheet (not shown) and exterior material 17 on both the surface facing the garden 12 and the surface facing the entrance approach 1E. Additionally, a coping 18 is provided at the upper end of the shielding wall 13. The coping 18 also covers the exterior materials 17 on both sides of the shielding wall 13. The shielding wall 13 is configured to include an exterior material 17 and a coping board 18, and the portion that does not include the exterior material 17 and the coping board 18 may be referred to as the shielding wall main body.

[0040] The gate 14a provided on the shielding wall 13 (first shielding wall 13a) of the house 2 as described above is fixed to the architectural wood panel P that constitutes the first shielding wall 13a, as shown in Figure 2. As described above, the architectural wood panel P is made up of vertical and horizontal frame materials Fm assembled into a rectangular shape, auxiliary crosspiece materials C attached to the inside of the rectangular frame to form a frame body F, and face materials B attached to both sides of this frame body F, resulting in a hollow structure. Furthermore, the hollow interior is filled with heat insulating material (not shown).

[0041] An adjustment material 19 is fixed to the gate 14-side end face of the shielding wall main body of the first shielding wall 13a. The adjustment material 19 is used to adjust the dimensional width of the opening of the gate 14 and serves as a base when installing the gate door 14a. The adjustment material 19 is made of a square timber, and its dimension in the left-right direction is set to a length that allows for the dimensional adjustment of the gate 14, and its dimension in the front-to-back direction is set equal to the thickness of the shielding wall main body. With the adjustment material 19 fixed, the shielding wall main body is widened, thereby adjusting the dimensional width of the opening of the gate 14.

[0042] The shielding wall main body with the adjustment material 19 integrally provided is covered with the exterior material 17 as described above. The exterior material 17 includes flat-section exterior material 17a, which is a flat plate type that covers the wall surface of the shielding wall main body on the entrance approach 1E side and the wall surface on the garden 12 side, and corner exterior material 17b, which is formed with an L-shaped cross section and covers the end of the shielding wall main body on the gate 14 side. A backup material 17c is placed between adjacent exterior materials 17a and 17b, and then a joint material 17d is filled in between the exterior materials 17a and 17b.

[0043] The gate 14a in this embodiment refers to a gate device for opening and closing the gate 14 as an entrance and exit, and this gate device 14a comprises a pair of posts 20 formed long in the vertical direction, a plurality of hinge portions 21 spaced apart along the length of each post 20, and door bodies 22, 23 supported on each post 20 via the plurality of hinge portions 21 so as to be freely rotatable.

[0044] The gate device 14a of this embodiment is a so-called parent-child swing type, and has a door body 22 which is a wide parent door and a door body 23 which is a narrow child door. Since both door bodies 22, 23 are arranged symmetrically and operate in contrast to each other, one of the door bodies (here, the door body 22 which is the parent door) will be explained as an example.

[0045] The support 20 has a support body 20a fixed to the first shielding wall 13a, and a cover body 20b attached to the support body 20a fixed to the first shielding wall 13a.

[0046] More specifically, the support main body 20a is fixed to a base bracket 30, which will be described later, and a plurality of through holes through which fastening members such as bolts are passed are formed in the plate portion on the first shielding wall 13a side. That is, the positions of the through holes in the plate portion on the first shielding wall 13a side coincide with the position of the base bracket 30. In this embodiment, bolts are used as the fastening members. In addition, some (first portions) of the multiple hinge portions 21 are integrally formed with the support pillar body 20a.

[0047] The cover body 20b is detachably attached to the support body 20a, and covers the support body 20a, avoiding the plate portion of the support body 20a in which the plurality of through holes are formed and some (first portions) of the plurality of hinge portions 21. In other words, the cover body 20b has an opening into which the plate portion of the support body 20a fits, and a slit into which some (first portions) of the hinge portions 21 fit.

[0048] The hinge portion 21 rotatably connects a first portion integrally formed with the support pillar main body 20a and a second portion integrally formed with the door body 22, and is provided with a rotation axis in either the first portion or the second portion, and is configured to be rotatable around the rotation axis.

[0049] The door body 22 has a part (second portion) of the plurality of hinge portions 21 integrally formed on the hanging side, and a lever handle and a locking device provided on the door tip side. In addition, a French stop is provided at the lower end of the door leading side of the other door body 23, which is the sub-door, to stop the rotation of the door body 23.

[0050] The gate device 14a as described above is fixed to the first shielding wall 13a via a base bracket 30. The base bracket 30 is fixed to the adjustment material 19 of the first shielding wall 13a. In other words, the support posts 20 that constitute the gate device 14a are fixed to the adjustment material 19 that constitutes the shielding wall main body of the first shielding wall 13a.

[0051] Since the base bracket 30 is fixed to the adjustment material 19, a through hole 17e (opening) through which the base bracket 30 passes is formed in the exterior material 17 covering the shielding wall main body at the location where the base bracket 30 is placed. The through hole 17e is formed by cutting out a U-shaped notch in the end of the corner exterior material 17b, which is one of the two corner exterior materials 17b that cover the end of the shielding wall main body and is located on the gate device 14a side. In other words, the through hole 17e is formed by the U-shaped notch formed in the end of the corner exterior material 17b and the end of the flat portion exterior material 17a. For stability reasons, the support pillars 20 of the gate device 14a must be supported at least at two locations, one above and one below. Therefore, through-holes 17e are formed at two locations, one above and one below, in the height direction at the end of the corner exterior material 17b, and base brackets 30 are placed at these locations and fixed to the adjustment material 19.

[0052] The base bracket 30 is constructed by bending and partially welding a metal plate, and as shown in Figures 2 and 3, it comprises a main body 31 formed in the shape of a rectangular box with one side open, and a plurality of fixing pieces 33.

[0053] As described above, one side of the main body 31 is open, and this side faces the adjusting member 19. The side 32 directly opposite the open side is the side located farthest from the adjusting member 19, and the support post 20 of the gate device 14a is fixed to this directly opposite side 32. That is, the directly opposite side 32 is the fixed surface 32 to which the support post 20 is fixed, and this fixed surface 32 has a plurality of through holes 32a formed therein through which fastening members such as bolts are passed. In this embodiment, bolts are used as the fastening members, and therefore the through holes 32a of the fixed surface 32 are formed with female threads. Alternatively, the through holes 32a may be simple through holes, and nuts corresponding to the positions of the through holes 32a may be welded to the back side of the fixed surface 32.

[0054] Furthermore, the main body 31, which is a rectangular box with one open side, has an upper plate portion 31a integrally formed at the upper end, a lower plate portion 31b integrally formed at the lower end, a left plate portion 31c integrally formed at the left end, and a right plate portion 31d integrally formed at the right end, of the plate portions that make up the fixed surface 32. The upper plate portion 31a, the lower plate portion 31b, the left side plate portion 31c, and the right side plate portion 31d are bent in the same direction, and in this embodiment, adjacent side edges of each plate portion 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d are welded to each other.

[0055] The multiple fixing pieces 33 are fixed to the wall surface of the first shielding wall 13a on the side where the gate device 14a is provided. More specifically, the multiple fixing pieces 33 are fixed to the first side surface 19a, located on the garden portion 12 side, of the adjusting material 19 that constitutes the shielding wall main body of the first shielding wall 13a.

[0056] One of the multiple fixing pieces 33 is formed integrally with the upper plate portion 31a, and the other is formed integrally with the lower plate portion 31b. In other words, the upper fixing piece 33 is formed by bending the tip of the upper plate portion 31a, and the lower fixing piece 33 is formed by bending the tip of the lower plate portion 31b. The plurality of fixing pieces 33 are bent and formed so as to protrude outward from the main body 31 .

[0057] The fixing pieces 33 are each formed with a plurality of through holes 33a through which fixing members 35 such as screws are passed.

[0058] In the base bracket 30 described above, when the upper and lower fixing pieces 33 are fixed to the first side surface 19a of the adjusting material 19, the fixed surface 32 of the main body 31 protrudes outward from the through hole 17e of the exterior material 17 beyond the outer surface of the exterior material 17. In other words, the protrusion dimension of the main body 31 of the base bracket 30 from the first side surface 19a of the adjusting material 19 is set so that it protrudes beyond the outer surface of the exterior material 17. In other words, the exterior material 17 is attached to the shielding wall main body so that its outer surface is not positioned outside the fixed surface 32 of the main body 31 of the base bracket 30.

[0059] Additionally, the gap between the peripheral edge of through-hole 17e formed in exterior material 17 and main body 31 of base bracket 30 is filled with backup material 17c and then with joint material 17d. That is, joint material 17d is filled in the gaps between upper plate portion 31a, lower plate portion 31b, left side plate portion 31c, and right side plate portion 31d of main body 31 of base bracket 30 and the cutout portion formed by cutting out the end of corner exterior material 17b and the end of flat-section exterior material 17a.

[0060] As described above, the support pillars 20 of the gate device 14a must be supported at least at two locations, one above and one below, and the base brackets 30 are also provided at least at two locations, one above and one below, on the shielding wall body. Therefore, the attachment of the base brackets 30 as described above is applied to at least two locations, one above and one below, on the shielding wall body.

[0061] According to this embodiment, the following excellent effects are achieved. That is, the fixing piece 33 formed integrally with the main body 31 is fixed to the wall surface 19a, and the gate device 14a is attached to the tip surface 32 in the protruding direction of the main body 31, which is disposed in a state of protruding from the wall surface 19a of the wall main body, so that the gate device 14a is supported on the wall 13a via such a base bracket 30, and less strain is placed on the wall main body. As a result, the support strength when supporting the gate device 14a can be improved, and the mounting stability of the gate device 14a can be improved. Furthermore, the protruding tip surface 32 of the main body portion 31 protrudes outward from the surface of the exterior material 17 covering the wall body, so that when the gate device 14a is attached to the protruding tip surface 32 of the main body portion 31, contact between the gate device 14a and the exterior material 17 can be prevented. Furthermore, the gap between the periphery of the through-hole 17e formed in the exterior material 17 and the main body 31 is filled with joint material 17d, preventing water from entering through the through-hole 17e. This protects the portion of the wall main body where the base bracket 30 is fixed from rainwater, preventing deterioration of the wall main body and, as a result, improving the mounting stability of the gate device 14a.

[0062] Furthermore, since the fixing pieces 33 extend along the surface direction of the wall surface 19a and outward perpendicular to the protruding direction of the main body 31, the base bracket 30 can be securely fixed by utilizing the narrow gap between the wall surface 19a of the wall main body and the exterior material 17. This improves the support strength when supporting the gate device 14a, and improves the installation stability of the gate device 14a.

[0063] Furthermore, the shielding wall main body is configured to include an adjustment member 19 that is integrally provided with the architectural wood panel P, and the base bracket 30 is fixed to the adjustment member 19, which improves the mounting stability of the base bracket 30 itself compared to when it is fixed to, for example, another member that does not bear the force applied to the structure of the house 2. This improves the support strength of the gate device 14a that is attached to the base bracket 30, and improves the mounting stability of the gate device 14a.

[0064] Furthermore, a plurality of base brackets 30 are provided at intervals in the height direction on the wall surface 19a of the wall 13a at a location on one or both side edges of the gate 14, and the support posts 20 of the gate 14a are attached to these plurality of base brackets 30, so that the support posts 20 of the gate device 14a are provided spanning the plurality of base brackets 30. This makes it possible to improve the support strength of the gate device 14a compared to, for example, attaching the support posts 20 to one base bracket 30, and to improve the installation stability of the gate device 14a.

[0065] Furthermore, in recent years, there has been a demand for the realization of a carbon-neutral society by promoting carbon neutrality, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions to virtually zero, and for the achievement of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals), and in the construction industry, efforts are being made to build buildings using wood, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions. In the house 2 of this embodiment, not only the house body 3 but also the shielding wall 13 surrounding the garden area 12 is constructed from architectural wood panels P, which can contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society by promoting carbon neutrality and the achievement of the SDGs.

[0066] [Modification] It should be noted that the embodiments to which the present invention can be applied are not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Modifications will be described below. The following modifications may be combined as much as possible. In each of the following modifications, elements common to the above-described embodiments will be assigned the same reference numerals, and descriptions thereof will be omitted or simplified.

[0067] [Variation 1] 4 shows a state in which a base bracket 30 is attached to the exterior wall body of an exterior wall 40 that forms a protruding corner 41 of a house 2. The exterior wall body has an adjustment material 19 fixed to the side edge of one architectural wood panel P (hereinafter referred to as the first architectural wood panel P1), and the side edge of the other architectural wood panel P (hereinafter referred to as the second architectural wood panel P2) is fixed to the side of the first architectural wood panel P1 and the adjustment material 19, thereby forming the protruding corner 41.

[0068] The base bracket 30 is provided at such an external corner portion 41. To explain in more detail, a plurality of fixing pieces 33 of the base bracket 30 are fixed to the first side surface 19a of the adjusting member 19.

[0069] According to this modification, the base bracket 30 does not need to be attached to the edge of an opening formed in a wall, but can be attached to any position where the first side surface 19a and the second side surface 19b intersect in a plan view. It may be attached to either the first side surface 19a or the second side surface 19b. Therefore, the outdoor object attached to this base bracket 30 can also be attached to any position where the first side surface 19a and the second side surface 19b intersect in a plan view.

[0070] [Variation 2] In the above embodiment, the wall body is made of architectural wood panels P, but the wall body of the exterior wall 42 of this modified example is made of width timbers including pillars 43, studs 44, and horizontal members such as girders and beams (not shown), as shown in Figure 5. In other words, the house of this modified example is built using the wooden frame construction method. In the exterior wall 42 of a house constructed using a wooden framework construction method, pillars 43 are arranged at intervals from other pillars (not shown), and studs 44 are arranged between pillars 43 and other pillars that are arranged at intervals from each other.

[0071] The base bracket 30 is attached to a pillar 43, which is a structural member of the wall body of the exterior wall 42. More specifically, the pillar 43 has a first side surface 43a located on the wall surface side (front or back side) of the exterior wall 42, and a second side surface 43b adjacent to the first side surface 43a in a direction intersecting with the first side surface 43a in a plan view. The base bracket 30 has multiple fixing pieces 33 fixed to the first side surface 43a of the pillar 43.

[0072] Furthermore, the base bracket 30 has a main body 31 formed in a box shape with a hollow portion. Therefore, by forming a through hole in one of the four plate portions 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d that constitute the main body 31 and also in the fixed surface 32, it is possible to pass, for example, an electric wire 45 (which may be a communication line). When passing the electric wire 45, a PF pipe 46 is passed through the through hole, and then the electric wire 45 is passed through the PF pipe 46. Such a wiring structure utilizing the hollow portion of base bracket 30 can be applied not only to this modification but also to the above-described embodiment and other modifications.

[0073] According to this modification, the base bracket 30 does not need to be attached to the edge of an opening formed in a wall, and can be attached anywhere the first side surface 43a is located, regardless of the architectural structure of the house. Therefore, an outdoor object to be attached to this base bracket 30 can also be attached anywhere the first side surface 43a is located. Furthermore, as in this modified example, if the base bracket 30 can be attached to the pillars 43 that make up the exterior wall 42, outdoor installations can be installed in the central widthwise portion of the exterior wall 42, in areas where there are no openings such as windows.

[0074] [Variation 3] 6 illustrates a connecting bracket 62 (intermediate member) that is used when installing an outdoor object such as a canopy, a clothes drying device, or an awning on the upper edge of an exterior wall 60 having an opening 61 formed therein. The opening 61 may be a doorway through which people can enter and exit, or it may be a window through which people do not enter and exit. The lower half of the connecting bracket 62 serves as a fixing portion 62a that is fixed to the base bracket 30, and the upper half serves as a mounting portion 62b to which an outdoor installation object is attached. The fixing portion 62a is fixed by a fixing member such as a bolt. The attached portion has a through-hole (bolt hole) into which the fixing member such as a bolt is screwed. A nut may be fixed to the back side of the attached portion. Although the connecting bracket 62 in this modified example is formed in a rectangular plate shape, it is not limited to this and can be modified as appropriate within the scope of the present invention.

[0075] According to this modified example, for example, if there is a restriction on the exterior wall 60 that prevents the base bracket 30 from being fixed higher than the position of the opening 61, the installation position of the outdoor installation object can be changed upward using the connecting bracket 62, so that the outdoor installation object can be placed higher than the opening 61.
