Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In the building fixture described in Patent Document 1, when the thickness of the glass panel of the inner shutter changes, the distance from the mating vertical stile of the outer shutter to the glass panel (face material) of the inner shutter changes. Also, in a single-slide shutter, when the thickness of the face material (for example, a glass panel of a vertical frame) arranged facing the vertical stile changes when the shutter is moved to open it, the distance from the vertical stile of the shutter to the face material changes. Therefore, it was necessary to prepare insect-proof components (protruding components) of a plurality of lengths according to the size of the gap between the shutter and the face material. Preparing insect-proof components (protruding components) of a plurality of lengths is complicated. Therefore, it has been demanded that the length of the insect-proof component (protruding component) protruding toward the face material side can be easily set according to the size of the gap between the shutter and the face material.

[0005] The present disclosure aims to provide a building fixture including a protruding component that closes the gap between the shutter and the face material, and capable of easily setting the length of the protruding component protruding toward the face material side according to the size of the gap between the shutter and the face material. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] This disclosure relates to a joinery comprising: a frame; a shoji screen having a vertical frame and a shoji screen side member, arranged to be movable laterally within the frame; a vertical member arranged opposite the depth direction of the vertical frame when the shoji screen is in the closed position; a vertical member side member attached to the vertical member and extending in the face direction; and a protruding part that, when the shoji screen is in the open position, protrudes in the depth direction from the vertical frame toward the vertical member side member, or protrudes in the depth direction from the vertical member toward the shoji screen side member, wherein the protruding part can be attached to the depth surface of the vertical frame or the vertical member by adjusting its position in the depth direction.

[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0008] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The first embodiment of the joinery 1 will be described. In this specification, "face direction" means the direction of the surface material of the joinery 1 fitted into an opening formed in the wall of a building, and "depth direction" means the thickness direction (i.e., depth direction) of the surface material. The "depth direction" is also the interior-exterior direction. "Face surface" means the respective surfaces of the joinery 1 that face the exterior and interior sides, and "depth surface" means the surface of the joinery 1 that extends in the interior-exterior direction. In the drawings, the exterior side of the joinery 1 is referred to as the exterior side X1, and the interior side of the joinery 1 is referred to as the interior side X2. The "horizontal direction" of the exterior shoji screen 5 (shoji screen) is also referred to as the left-right direction.

[0009] As shown in Fig. 1, the building fixture 1 is composed of a continuous window and includes a frame body 2 attached to an opening of a building body (not shown), two partitions 31 and 32 that divide the inside of the frame body 2 into three regions in the left - right direction, an outer shutter 5 (shutter) disposed at an end on one side in the left - right direction (the left side in Figs. 1 and 3) inside the frame body 2, a FIX window portion 41 disposed at the center in the left - right direction inside the frame body 2, a FIX window portion 42 disposed at an end on the other side in the left - right direction (the right side in Figs. 1 and 3) inside the frame body 2, and a pleated screen door 6 (see Fig. 3) that is disposed so as to be retractable on the indoor side X2 of the outer shutter 5 disposed on one side in the left - right direction (the left side in Figs. 1 and 3) inside the frame body 2.

[0010] The frame body 2 is formed by framing an upper frame 21, a lower frame 22, and a pair of left - right vertical frames 23 and 24 in a rectangle.

[0011] As shown in Fig. 2A, the upper frame 21 has an upper frame main body 211 and an upper - frame - side screen - door attachment 2113. The upper frame main body 211 has an upper - frame outdoor - side groove portion 2111 formed on the outdoor side X1 and opening downward, and an upper - frame indoor - side groove portion 2112 formed on the indoor side X2 and opening downward.

[0012] At the upper - frame outdoor - side groove portion 2111, at the outdoor side X1 of the upper frame 21, the upper end portion of the outer shutter 5 is disposed. The upper - frame outdoor - side groove portion 2111 guides the movement of the upper end portion of the outer shutter 5 in the left - right direction.

[0013] The upper - frame indoor - side groove portion 2112 has a screen - door arrangement groove portion 2112a (see Fig. 2A) formed in the region of the end on one side in the left - right direction (the left side in Fig. 1), and a FIX - glass arrangement groove portion 2112b (see Fig. 2B) formed in the central region in the left - right direction inside the frame body 2 and the region of the end on the other side in the left - right direction (the right side in Fig. 1) inside the frame body 2.

[0014] As shown in Fig. 2A, the upper - frame - side screen - door attachment 2113 is disposed below the screen - door arrangement groove portion 2112a, and the upper end portion of the pleated screen door 6 (see Figs. 1 and 3) is slidably attached to the lower portion of the upper - frame - side screen - door attachment 2113.

[0015] The attachment 2113 for the upper frame side screen window includes an attachment main body 2114 and an attachment cover 2115 attached to the lower part of the attachment main body 2114. On the indoor side X2 of the attachment cover 2115, a screen window arrangement part 2115a is formed, and on the outdoor side X1 of the attachment cover 2115, a lower surface plate 2115b extending in the prospective direction at a position lower than the screen window arrangement part 2115a is formed.

[0016] By providing the attachment 2113 for the upper frame side screen window below the screen window arrangement groove part 2112a, the screen window arrangement part 2115a of the attachment cover 2115 guides the lateral movement of the upper end part of the pleated screen window 6 (see FIGS. 1 and 3). As shown in FIG. 2B, in the FIX glass arrangement groove part 2112b, the upper end of the glass panel 411 of the FIX window part 41 is arranged at the center in the lateral direction within the frame body 2 (the center in the lateral direction in FIG. 1), and as shown in FIG. 1, the upper end of the glass panel 421 of the FIX window part 42 is arranged on the other side in the lateral direction within the frame body 2 (the right side in FIG. 1).

[0017] As shown in FIG. 2A, the lower frame 22 includes a lower frame main body 221 and an attachment 2213 for the lower frame side screen window. The lower frame main body 221 includes a lower frame rail 2211 formed on the outdoor side X1 and protruding upward, and a lower frame indoor side groove part 2212 formed on the indoor side X2 and opened upward.

[0018] On the lower frame rail 2211, the lower end part of the outer shutter 5 is arranged on the outdoor side X1 of the lower frame 22. The lower frame rail 2211 guides the lateral movement of the lower end part of the outer shutter 5.

[0019] The lower frame indoor side groove part 2212 includes a screen window arrangement groove part 2212a (see FIG. 2A) formed in the area of one end side in the lateral direction within the frame body 2 (the left side in FIG. 1), and a FIX glass arrangement groove part 2212b (see FIG. 2B) formed in the central area in the lateral direction within the frame body 2 and the area of the other end side in the lateral direction within the frame body 2 (the right side in FIG. 1).

[0020] As shown in Figure 2A, a lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 is positioned above the screen door placement groove 2212a, and the lower end of the pleated screen door 6 (see Figures 1 and 3) is slidably attached to the upper part of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213.

[0021] The lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 comprises an attachment body 2214 and an attachment cover 2215 attached to the upper part of the attachment body 2214. A screen door placement section 2215a is formed on the indoor side X2 of the attachment cover 2215, and an upper plate 2215b is formed on the outdoor side X1 of the attachment cover 2215, extending in the depth direction at a position above the screen door placement section 2215a.

[0022] An attachment 2213 for the lower frame side screen door is provided above the screen door placement groove 2212a, so that the screen door placement portion 2215a of the attachment cover 2215 guides the left-right movement of the lower end of the pleated screen door 6 (see Figures 1 and 3). As shown in Figure 2B, the lower end of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window portion 41 is positioned in the center in the left-right direction (center in the left-right direction in Figure 1) of the fixed glass placement groove 2212b, and as shown in Figure 1, the lower end of the glass panel 421 of the fixed window portion 42 is positioned on the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figure 1).

[0023] The two mullions 31 and 32 are arranged within the frame 2 and extend vertically, as shown in Figures 1 and 3. The two mullions 31 and 32 are positioned apart horizontally in the middle of the frame 2 in the horizontal direction, dividing the frame 2 into three regions horizontally. The two mullions 31 and 32 consist of a first mullion 31 positioned on one side of the frame 2 in the horizontal direction (left side in Figure 1) and a second mullion 32 positioned on the other side of the frame 2 in the horizontal direction (right side in Figure 1).

[0024] The opening of the frame 2 is divided into three regions in the left-right direction within the frame 2 by two mullions 31 and 32. This creates an opening 25 formed on one side of the frame 2 in the left-right direction (left side in Figure 1) and opened and closed by the outer sash 5, a fixed window section 41 located in the center of the frame 2 in the left-right direction, and a fixed window section 42 located on the other side of the frame 2 in the left-right direction (right side in Figure 1).

[0025] As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the fixed window section 41, located in the center in the left-right direction within the frame 2, is constructed by fixing a glass panel 411 (vertical side member) as a facing material to two mullions 31 and 32 and the frame 2. As shown in Figure 2B, the glass panel 411 has two panes of glass 4111 and is constructed as double-glazed glass. The fixed window section 41 is a fixed window that cannot be opened or closed. As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the fixed window section 42, located on the other side in the left-right direction within the frame 2 (the right side in Figure 1), is constructed by fixing a glass panel 421 as a facing material to a mullion 32 and the frame 2. The fixed window section 42 is a fixed window that cannot be opened or closed.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1, 2A, and 3, the outer sash 5 is positioned within the frame 2 so as to be slidable horizontally on the outdoor side X1 on one side in the left-right direction (left side in Figure 1) of the frame 2, and is configured to open and close the opening 25 formed on one side in the left-right direction (left side in Figure 1) of the fixed window section 41. When viewed from the indoor-outdoor direction, the outer sash 5 is in the closed position when it overlaps the opening 25, and is moved to the open position by moving horizontally, thereby moving to the outdoor side X1 of the fixed window section 41.

[0027] As shown in Figures 2A and 3, the outer shoji screen 5 is constructed by assembling an upper frame 51, a lower frame 52, a vertical frame 53 positioned on the leading edge side, and a vertical frame 54 positioned on the trailing edge side into a rectangular frame body 50, and then fitting a glass panel 55 (sash side material) as a facing material into the inner circumference of the frame body 50. The glass panel 55 has two panes of glass 551 and is constructed as double-glazed glass.

[0028] As shown in Figure 2A, the outer sash 5 has its upper end positioned to move laterally in the upper frame outdoor groove 2111 of the upper frame 21, and its lower end engages with the lower frame rail 2211 of the lower frame 22 to move laterally. The bottom frame 52 is provided with a plurality of rollers 56 that roll on the lower frame rail 2211 of the lower frame 22.

[0029] As shown in Figure 2A, the outer sash 5 moves in the left-right direction while in contact with the airtight material 2116 provided on the visible surface of the upper frame 21 facing the outdoor side X1, and also in contact with the airtight material 2216 provided on the visible surface of the lower frame 22 facing the outdoor side X1. The airtight material 2116 provided on the visible surface of the upper frame 21 facing the outdoor side X1 comes into contact with the visible surface 51a on the indoor side X2 of the upper frame 51 of the outer sash 5. The airtight material 2216 provided on the visible surface of the lower frame 22 facing the outdoor side X1 comes into contact with the visible surface 52a on the indoor side X2 of the lower frame 52 of the outer sash 5.

[0030] As a result, at the upper frame 51 of the outer sash 5, the upper frame 51 of the outer sash 5 abuts against the airtight material 2116 provided on the upper frame 21, thereby ensuring airtightness and preventing insects from entering the interior X2. Similarly, at the lower frame 52 of the outer sash 5, the lower frame 52 of the outer sash 5 abuts against the airtight material 2216 provided on the lower frame 22, thereby ensuring airtightness and preventing insects from entering the interior X2.

[0031] As shown in Figure 4, when the outer shoji screen 5 is in the closed position, the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side is positioned on the exterior side X1 of the first mullion 31, and when viewed from the interior to the exterior, it is positioned to overlap with the first mullion 31. As shown in Figure 5, when the outer shoji screen 5 is moved to the open position, the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side is positioned offset to the left and right relative to the first mullion 31 when viewed from the interior to the exterior.

[0032] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the vertical frame 54 on the door end side has a hollow frame 541 having a hollow portion 541a, a glass arrangement portion 542 formed on one side of the hollow frame 541 in the left-right direction (the left side in Figures 4 and 5), and an L-shaped opening portion 543 formed projecting from the indoor side X2 surface to the indoor side X2 at the end of the other side of the hollow frame 541 in the left-right direction (the right side in Figures 4 and 5).

[0033] The L-shaped opening 543 is formed in a cross-sectional L-shape that opens toward one side in the left-right direction (the left side in Figures 4 and 5). The L-shaped opening 543 has an indoor-side projection 5431 having a hollow portion 5431a, and a projection 5432 that protrudes from the indoor-side X2 end of the indoor-side projection 5431 toward the inner circumference of the outer sash 5. A fitting member 5433 is attached to the indoor-side X2 of the end of the glass panel 55 on the door-end side of the vertical frame 54 in the left-right direction. When the outer sash 5 is in the closed position, the L-shaped opening 543 is positioned to be hooked onto the projection 313 (described later) of the first mullion 31.

[0034] As shown in Figure 4, the first mullion 31 is positioned opposite the interior side X2 in the depth direction of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 when the outer sash 5 is in the closed position. The first mullion 31 has a mullion body 311 having a hollow portion 311a, a mullion interior hollow frame 312 having a hollow portion 312a and positioned on the interior side X2 of the mullion body 311, and a projection 313 that protrudes from the end of the exterior side X1 of the mullion body 311 to the other side in the left-right direction (the right side in Figures 4 and 5).

[0035] A fitting member 314 is attached to the indoor side X2 portion of the protruding portion 313, which is positioned on the outdoor side X1 of the end of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window portion 41 on the left-right side of the first mullion 31. An airtight material 315 is attached to the outdoor side X1 of one end of the mullion body portion 311 in the left-right direction (the left side in Figures 4 and 5). The protruding portion 313 is positioned to hook onto the L-shaped opening 543 of the outer sash 5 when the outer sash 5 is in the closed position.

[0036] A glass panel 411 (vertical side member) is attached to the other side (right side in Figures 4 and 5) of the main body 311 of the first mullion 31. The glass panel 411 extends in the visible direction. When the outer sash 5 is in the open position, the glass panel 411 is positioned opposite the interior side X2 of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5.

[0037] An attachment-type insect-proof component 7 (protruding component) is attached to the visible surface 311b on one side (left side in Figures 4 and 5) of the mullion body portion 311 of the first mullion 31 (vertical member). As shown in Figure 5, the insect-proof component 7 is formed to protrude in the visible direction from the first mullion 31 toward the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, at least when the outer sash 5 is in the open position, and is positioned opposite the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5. In this embodiment, whether the outer sash 5 is in the closed position (see Figure 4) or in the open position (see Figure 5), in either case, the insect-proof component 7 is formed to protrude in the visible direction from the first mullion 31 toward the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, and is positioned opposite the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5. The insect-repellent component 7 can be attached to the facing surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the facing direction.

[0038] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the insect-proof component 7 comprises an insect-proof packing 71 (protruding component body) and an insect-proof component mounting portion 72 (mounting portion). The insect-proof packing 71 and the insect-proof component mounting portion 72 extend in the vertical direction, as shown in Figure 2A. The insect-proof component mounting portion 72 can be attached to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the depth direction. The insect-proof packing 71 is attached to the insect-proof component mounting portion 72 and protrudes from the insect-proof component mounting portion 72 toward the outdoor side X1 in the depth direction.

[0039] As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the insect-repellent component mounting section 72 has a mounting section body 721 and a cover section 722. The mounting section body 721 can be fixed to the facing surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the facing direction. The cover section 722 is attached by engaging with the mounting section body 721.

[0040] The mounting body 721 is formed in a U-shape in cross-section, with one side in the left-right direction (the left side in Figures 4 and 5) open. The mounting body 721 has a plate-shaped mounting fixing plate 7211 that has a predetermined width in the depth direction and extends in the vertical direction, and a pair of body-side protrusions 7212 that protrude from both ends of the mounting fixing plate 7211 in the width direction (depth direction) to one side in the left-right direction (the left side in Figures 4 and 5). A body-side engaging projection 7212a is formed in the middle of the protruding direction of each of the pair of body-side protrusions 7212, protruding to the outer circumference of the U-shaped portion of the mounting body 721.

[0041] The mounting plate 7211 is fixed to the facing surface 311b on one side (left side in Figures 4 and 5) of the first mullion 31 by a screw 721a (fastening screw). The shaft of the screw 721a is positioned to penetrate the mounting plate 7211 in the left-right direction. When fixing the mounting plate 7211 to the facing surface 311b on one side (left side in Figures 4 and 5) of the first mullion 31, the position of the insect-repellent component 7 in the facing direction is adjusted, and the screw 721a is screwed into the facing surface 311b on one side (left side in Figures 4 and 5) of the first mullion 31. As a result, the mounting body 721 of the insect-repellent component 7 is fixed to the facing surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by a screw 721a that can be fastened by screwing it into the first mullion 31, with its position in the facing direction adjusted.

[0042] The cover portion 722 is formed in a U-shape in cross-section, with the other side in the left-right direction (the right side in Figures 4 and 5) being open. The cover portion 722 is attached to the mounting portion body 721 with the open side of the cover portion 722 positioned to overlap the open side of the mounting portion body 721. Since the cover portion 722 can be attached to the mounting portion body 721 after the mounting portion body 721 has been fixed to the first mullion 31 with screws 721a, the cover portion 722 can hide the screws 721a that fix the mounting portion body 721.

[0043] The cover portion 722 includes a cover plate 7221 that is positioned on one side in the left-right direction (left side in Figures 4 and 5) of the tip of a pair of body-side protrusions 7212 of the mounting portion body 721 and has a predetermined width in the depth direction and extends in the vertical direction; a pair of cover-side protrusions 7222 that protrude from both ends in the width direction (depth direction) of the cover plate 7221 to one side in the left-right direction (left side in Figures 4 and 5); and a packing mounting groove 7223 formed on the outdoor side X1 surface of the outdoor side X1 of the pair of cover-side protrusions 7222.

[0044] Each of the pair of cover-side protrusions 7222 has a cover-side engaging projection 7222a that protrudes towards the inner circumference of the U-shaped portion of the cover 722, partway along its protruding direction. When the cover 722 is attached to the mounting body 721, the pair of cover-side engaging projections 7222a engage with the pair of body-side engaging projections 7212a of the body-side protrusion 7212.

[0045] The packing mounting groove 7223 is formed in a C-shape on the outdoor side surface of the cover-side projection 7222 of the outdoor side X1, opening to the outdoor side X1. The base end portion of the insect-proof packing 71 is attached to the packing mounting groove 7223.

[0046] The insect-proof packing 71 is formed to protrude from the packing mounting groove 7223 toward the outdoor side X1 when installed in the packing mounting groove 7223. The insect-proof packing 71 protrudes toward the outdoor side X1 at an angle from the packing mounting groove 7223 toward the outdoor side X1, moving from the side away from the first mullion 31 in the left-right direction (one side in the left-right direction (left side in Figures 4 and 5)) toward the side closer to the first mullion 31 (the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figures 4 and 5)). The insect-proof packing 71 is made of a fin-shaped plate-shaped packing member made of resin, or a mohair member, etc.

[0047] The tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is positioned slightly away from the interior side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, so that a gap S1 is formed between it and the interior side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5. The position where the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is slightly away from the interior side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 means that when the outer sash 5 is opened, the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 does not come into contact with the interior side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, and is far enough away that insects cannot enter through the gap between the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 and the interior side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5. The size of the gap S1 between the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 and the indoor-side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 is such that insects cannot enter when the outer sash 5 is opened, and as shown in Figure 2A, it is uniformly formed at any position in the vertical direction. The size of the gap S1 between the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 and the indoor-side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 when the outer sash 5 is opened is, for example, 1.5 mm or less.

[0048] Furthermore, when the outer sash 5 is in the closed position (see Figure 4), the airtight seal 315 attached to the outdoor-facing X1 surface of one end of the mullion body 311 in the left-right direction (left side in Figure 4) seals the space between the first mullion 31 and the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side of the outer sash 5, thus preventing insects from entering the indoor-facing side X2.

[0049] By providing the insect-proof component 7 described above, the insect-proof component 7 can be attached to the surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the depth direction. This allows the position of the insect-proof component 7 in the depth direction to be adjusted to a position far enough away from the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 and the interior side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 to prevent insects from entering between the outer sash 5 and the mullion 31 when the outer sash 5 is opened, thus easily preventing insects from entering between the outer sash 5 and the mullion 31. Furthermore, since the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is positioned slightly away from the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, it is possible to prevent the insect-proof packing 71 from getting caught on the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, or from rubbing against the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 and soiling it by wiping it with a wiper.

[0050] When attaching the insect-proof component 7 to the first mullion 31, the FIX window section 41 and FIX window section 42 are provided, and the outer sash 5 is attached to one side of the frame 2 in the left-right direction (the left side in Figure 1). Then, the insect-proof component 7 is attached to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31 with its position adjusted in the depth direction. The insect-proof component 7 in this embodiment is an attachment type that can be attached after the outer sash 5 has been installed.

[0051] When attaching the insect-proof component 7 to the first mullion 31, first, in order to align the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71, the position in the depth direction is adjusted so that the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is positioned at a distance of a gap S1 from the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5. Then, the insect-proof component 7, with the cover part 722 attached to the mounting part body 721 of the insect-proof component mounting part 72 and the insect-proof packing 71 attached to the cover part 722, is temporarily fixed to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31 using double-sided tape or the like. After that, with the mounting part body 721 remaining on the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31, the cover part 722 is removed from the mounting part body 721.

[0052] Next, the mounting plate 7211 of the mounting body 721, whose position in the depth direction has been adjusted, is fixed to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31 with screws 721a. When fixing the mounting plate 7211 to the depth surface 311b on one side in the left-right direction of the first mullion 31 (the left side in Figures 4 and 5), the shaft of the screw 721a is passed through the mounting plate 7211 of the mounting body 721, and the screw 721a is screwed into the depth surface 311b on one side in the left-right direction of the first mullion 31 (the left side in Figures 4 and 5). As a result, the insect-proof component 7 can be fixed to the facing surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by screwing it into the first mullion 31 using a screw 721a, which can be fastened by screwing it into the first mullion 31, with the position in the facing direction adjusted so that the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is positioned at a distance of the size of the gap S1 from the facing surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5. After that, the cover part 722 with the insect-proof packing 71 attached is attached to the mounting part body 721.

[0053] Alternatively, to fix the mounting body 721 of the insect-repellent component 7 to the surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the depth direction, a screw hole may be provided in the surface 311b of the first mullion 31, and an elongated hole may be provided in the mounting plate 7211 of the mounting body 721. A screw can then be passed through the screw hole in the surface 311b of the first mullion 31 and the elongated hole in the mounting plate 7211 of the mounting body 721 to adjust the position of the mounting body 721 of the insect-repellent component 7 in the depth direction and fix it to the surface 311b of the first mullion 31. In this case, after adjusting the position of the mounting body 721 of the insect-repellent component 7 in the depth direction and fixing it to the surface 311b of the first mullion 31, the position of the mounting body 721 of the insect-repellent component 7 can be adjusted in the depth direction.

[0054] As described above, by making the insect-proof component 7 an add-on attachment, the position of the insect-proof component 7 in the projection direction can be adjusted so that the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is positioned at a distance of a gap S1 from the visible surface 55a on the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, and the insect-proof component 7 can be easily attached to the first mullion 31.

[0055] As shown in Figure 1, a handle 533 is attached to the horizontally extending inner surface of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side. As shown in Figure 3, the handle 533 is attached to the horizontally extending inner surface of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side, on the interior side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5.

[0056] As shown in Figures 3, 6, and 7, the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side has a vertical frame main body 531 and a vertical frame interior portion 532 (projecting portion) positioned on the interior side X2 of the vertical frame main body 531. The vertical frame interior portion 532 is formed projecting outwards to the interior side X2 at a point in the vertical direction of the vertical frame main body 531 and extends in the vertical direction.

[0057] As shown in Figure 8, the upper end of the vertical frame body portion 531 is positioned in the upper frame outdoor side groove portion 2111 of the upper frame 21, and the lower end is positioned in the lower frame rail 2211 of the lower frame 22.

[0058] The interior portion 532 of the vertical frame extends vertically midway along the vertical direction of the vertical frame 53 and protrudes to the interior side X2 (one side) in the depth direction. The interior portion 532 of the vertical frame is positioned on the interior side X2 of the frame body 2 and is positioned vertically between the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is provided below the upper frame body 211, and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213, which is provided above the lower frame body 221.

[0059] As shown in Figures 6, 8, and 9, an upper cover material 5321 is fixed to the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame. The upper cover material 5321 has a vertical cover plate 5321a positioned on the interior side X2 of the upper end of the main body portion 531 of the vertical frame, and a horizontal cover plate 5321b extending horizontally from the lower end of the vertical cover plate 5321a to the interior side X2. The horizontal cover plate 5321b is fixed to the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame by screws 5321c.

[0060] As shown in Figures 7, 8, and 11, a lower cover material 5322 is fixed to the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame. The lower cover material 5322 has a vertical cover plate 5322a positioned on the interior X2 surface of the lower end of the main body portion 531 of the vertical frame, and a horizontal cover plate 5322b extending horizontally from the lower end of the vertical cover plate 5322a to the interior X2. The horizontal cover plate 5322b is fixed to the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame by screws 5322c.

[0061] As shown in Figures 6 to 8, an upper gap-filling member 81 (gap-filling member) is attached to the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, and a lower gap-filling member 82 (gap-filling member) is attached to the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. The upper gap-filling member 81 and the lower gap-filling member 82 fill the vertical gap between the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the frame 2.

[0062] Specifically, as shown in Figures 6 and 8, the upper gap-filling member 81 is positioned between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is provided below the upper frame body 211, in order to fill the gap between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115b of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is provided below the upper frame body 211. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 7 and 8, the lower gap-filling member 82 is positioned between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213, which is provided above the lower frame body 221, in order to fill the gap between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215b of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213, which is provided above the lower frame body 221.

[0063] As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the upper gap-filling member 81 is attached to the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. The upper gap-filling member 81 includes a spacer material 811 positioned on the upper surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, and a gap-filling cover material 812 (fixing member) that fixes the spacer material 811 to the door-side vertical frame 53 while sandwiching it between the spacer material 811 and the upper surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side.

[0064] As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the gap-filling cover material 812 has a side fixing plate 8121 and a top plate 8122 (holding plate). The gap-filling cover material 812 is made of, for example, a metal component.

[0065] The side fixing plate 8121 is formed in a plate shape that extends along the left-right outer circumference (front left side in Figure 9) of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, and extends vertically along the vertical direction of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. The lower end of the side fixing plate 8121 is fixed to the left-right outer circumference (front left side in Figure 9) of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side by a screw 813 (fastening member), and the upper end is located above the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. As shown in Figure 10, the side fixing plate 8121 has an elongated through hole 8121a (through hole) that penetrates in the left-right direction.

[0066] The elongated through-hole 8121a is formed in an elongated shape that extends in the vertical direction. The shaft of the screw 813 (fastening member) is positioned to pass through the elongated through-hole 8121a. Because the elongated through-hole 8121a is formed in an elongated shape that extends in the vertical direction, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 812 can be adjusted within the vertical range of the elongated through-hole 8121a by moving the elongated through-hole 8121a vertically along the shaft of the screw 813.

[0067] The top panel 8122 is formed as a plate that extends horizontally from the upper end of the side fixing plate 8121 in the left-right direction towards the inner circumference (right rear side in Figure 9) at a position above the upper surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side. The top panel 8122 is installed with a spacer material 811 sandwiched between the top panel 8122 and the upper surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side.

[0068] The spacer material 811 is positioned between the upper surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side and the upper plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812, while exhibiting elastic restorative force. The spacer material 811 is made of an elastic material capable of exhibiting elastic restorative force. The spacer material 811 is made of a soft material such as a sponge. Note that the spacer material 811 does not have to be an elastic material.

[0069] The upper gap-filling member 81 is positioned between the upper end of the vertical frame interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is provided below the upper frame body 211. This arrangement allows the upper gap-filling member 81 to fill the vertical gap between the upper end of the vertical frame interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is provided below the upper frame body 211.

[0070] The vertical size of the upper gap-filling member 81 is such that, when positioned between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113 provided below the upper frame body 211, it does not completely fill the gap between the upper plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113 provided below the upper frame body 211. Rather, it is installed so that there is a certain gap between the upper plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113 provided below the upper frame body 211. Preferably, the certain gap is large enough to prevent insects from entering. A certain gap is, for example, a gap of 1.5 mm or less.

[0071] This prevents insects from entering through the gap between the upper end of the vertical frame 533 on the door edge side, specifically the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame, and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is located below the upper frame body 211. Furthermore, since the upper gap-filling member 81 is installed with a certain gap between the upper plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 and the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115b of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is located below the upper frame body 211, it prevents the upper end of the upper gap-filling member 81 from rubbing against the lower plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115b of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is located below the upper frame body 211.

[0072] In this embodiment, the spacer material 811 is made of a soft material such as a sponge, and the gap-filling cover material 812 is made of a metal material. However, the embodiment is not limited to this, and conversely, the spacer material 811 may be made of a metal material, and the gap-filling cover material 812 may be made of a soft material such as a sponge. If the gap-filling cover material 812 is made of a soft material such as a sponge, and the friction between the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 and the bottom plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113 is small, then there may be no gap between the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 and the bottom plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113.

[0073] Alternatively, the positional relationship between the spacer material 811 and the gap-filling cover material 812 may be reversed to eliminate the gap between the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 and the bottom plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113, which is provided below the upper frame body 211, and the spacer material 811 may be placed on the top surface of the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812. In this case, if the friction between the spacer material 811 and the bottom plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113 is small, there may be no gap between the spacer material 811 and the bottom plate 2115b of the attachment cover 2115 of the upper frame side screen door attachment 2113.

[0074] As shown in Figures 11 and 12, the lower gap-filling member 82 is attached to the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side. The lower gap-filling member 82 has a gap-filling cover material 822. The gap-filling cover material 822 is made of, for example, a metal component.

[0075] As shown in Figures 11 and 12, the gap-filling cover material 822 has a side fixing plate 8221 and a bottom plate 8222.

[0076] The side fixing plate 8221 is formed in a plate shape that extends along the left-right outer circumference (front left side in Figure 11) of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, and extends vertically along the vertical direction of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. The upper side of the side fixing plate 8221 is fixed to the left-right outer circumference (front left side in Figure 11) of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side by a screw 823 (fastening member), and the lower end is located slightly below the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. As shown in Figure 12, the side fixing plate 8221 has an elongated through hole 8221a that penetrates in the left-right direction.

[0077] The elongated through-hole 8221a is formed in an elongated shape that extends in the vertical direction. The shaft of the screw 823 is positioned to pass through the elongated through-hole 8221a. Because the elongated through-hole 8221a is formed in an elongated shape that extends in the vertical direction, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 822 can be adjusted within the vertical range of the elongated through-hole 8221a by moving the elongated through-hole 8221a vertically along the shaft of the screw 823.

[0078] The bottom plate 8222 is formed as a plate that extends horizontally from the lower end of the side fixing plate 8221 in the left-right direction towards the inner circumference (right rear side in Figure 11) at a position along the lower surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side. In this embodiment, no spacer material is placed between the bottom plate 8222 and the lower surface of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side.

[0079] The thickness portion of the lower gap-filling member 82's gap-filling cover material 822 is positioned between the lower end of the vertical frame interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213, which is provided above the lower frame body 221. This allows the lower gap-filling member 82 to fill the vertical gap between the lower end of the vertical frame interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213, which is provided above the lower frame body 221.

[0080] The vertical size of the lower gap-filling member 82 is such that, when positioned between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 provided above the lower frame body 221, it does not completely fill the gap between the lower plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 provided above the lower frame body 221. Rather, it is installed so that there is a certain gap between the lower plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215b of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 provided above the lower frame body 221. Preferably, the certain gap is large enough to prevent insects from entering. A certain gap is, for example, a gap of 1.5 mm or less.

[0081] This prevents insects from entering through the gap between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 which is provided above the lower frame body 221. In addition, since the lower gap filling member 82 is installed with a certain gap between the lower plate 8222 of the gap filling cover material 822 and the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 which is provided above the lower frame body 221, it is possible to prevent the lower end of the lower gap filling member 82 from rubbing against the upper plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 which is provided above the lower frame body 221.

[0082] Although the lower gap-filling member 82 does not have a spacer, it is not limited to this. In the lower gap-filling member 82, as with the upper gap-filling member 81, a space may be provided between the lower surface of the indoor portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the lower plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822, depending on the size of the gap between the indoor portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the lower frame 22, and a spacer may be provided in that space. If a spacer is provided, the spacer has the same configuration as the spacer 811 of the upper gap-filling member 81.

[0083] Furthermore, when spacer material is provided, it may be made of a soft material such as a sponge and the gap-filling cover material 812 may be made of a metal material, but it is not limited to this. Conversely, the spacer material may be made of a metal material and the gap-filling cover material 822 may be made of a soft material such as a sponge. If the gap-filling cover material 822 is made of a soft material such as a sponge, and the friction between the bottom plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822 and the top plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 is small, then there may be no gap between the bottom plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822 and the top plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213.

[0084] Alternatively, the positional relationship between the spacer material and the gap-filling cover material 822 may be reversed to eliminate the gap between the bottom plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822 and the top plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213, which is provided above the lower frame body 221, and the spacer material may be placed on the underside of the bottom plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822. In this case, if the friction between the spacer material and the top plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213 is small, there may be no gap between the spacer material and the top plate 2215b of the attachment cover 2215 of the lower frame side screen door attachment 2213.

[0085] When attaching the upper gap-filling member 81 and the lower gap-filling member 82 to the upper and lower ends of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, the upper gap-filling member 81 and the lower gap-filling member 82 are attached after the outer sash 5 has been installed in the frame 2. The size of the upper and lower gaps of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side may vary depending on the variations when installing the outer sash 5 in the frame 2, and is therefore determined by adjustments made after the outer sash 5 has been installed in the frame 2 (such as adjusting the door rollers). After the outer sliding door 5 has been installed in the frame 2 and adjustments have been made, the gaps between the upper and lower parts of the vertical frame 532 on the door-side vertical frame can be filled by placing an upper gap-filling member 81 and a lower gap-filling member 82 in the gaps between the upper and lower parts of the vertical frame 532 on the door-side vertical frame, according to the size of the gaps between the upper and lower parts of the vertical frame 532 on the door-side vertical frame.

[0086] Specifically, when attaching the upper gap-filling member 81 to the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 is adjusted according to the size of the gap between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper frame 21, and the side fixing plate 8121 of the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 is fixed to the side (visible surface) of the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side using screws 813.

[0087] When fixing the side fixing plate 8121 of the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 to the side (floating surface) of the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 is adjusted, and with the shaft of the screw 813 passing through the elongated through hole 8121a of the side fixing plate 8121 of the gap-filling cover material 812, the screw 813 is screwed into the screw hole 532a of the side (floating surface) of the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. Then, before fully tightening the screw 813, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 812 is finely adjusted by moving the elongated through hole 8121a vertically along the screw 813. With the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 812 finely adjusted, the screw 813 is tightened to fix the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 to the side surface (visible surface) of the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side.

[0088] Subsequently, a spacer material 811 capable of exhibiting elastic recovery force is placed between the upper surface of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper surface 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812, in a state where it is compressed vertically, so as to fill the gap between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper surface 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812. As a result, the spacer material 811 is positioned between the upper surface of the vertical frame 53 and the gap-filling cover material 812 while exhibiting elastic recovery force. In this state, the spacer material 811 fills the gap between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the upper surface 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812.

[0089] Alternatively, the spacer material 811 may be sandwiched and compressed between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side and the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812. Furthermore, if the spacer material 811 is an elastic member capable of exhibiting elastic recovery force, there is no need to use different types of spacers depending on the size of the gap between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side and the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812. Also, if the spacer material 811 is an elastic member capable of exhibiting elastic recovery force, the spacer material 811 can be placed between the upper end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side and the top plate 8122 of the gap-filling cover material 812 at the same time as installing the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81, rather than being attached after the gap-filling cover material 812 of the upper gap-filling member 81 is installed.

[0090] Furthermore, when attaching the lower gap-filling member 82 to the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 is adjusted according to the size of the gap between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the lower frame 22, and the side fixing plate 8221 of the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 is fixed to the side (visible surface) of the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side using screws 823.

[0091] When fixing the side fixing plate 8221 of the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 to the side (floor) of the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 is adjusted, and with the shaft of the screw 823 passing through the elongated through hole 8221a of the side fixing plate 8221 of the gap-filling cover material 822, the screw 823 is screwed into the screw hole 532b on the side (floor) of the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side. Then, before fully tightening the screw 823, the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 822 is finely adjusted by moving the elongated through hole 8221a vertically along the screw 823. With the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 822 finely adjusted, the screw 823 is tightened to fix the gap-filling cover material 822 of the lower gap-filling member 82 to the side surface (visible surface) of the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door edge side.

[0092] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 11 and 12, the gap between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the bottom frame 22 is filled by placing the bottom plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822. Therefore, no spacer material is placed between the lower end of the interior portion 532 of the vertical frame 53 on the door-side and the bottom plate 8222 of the gap-filling cover material 822.

[0093] In this embodiment, both an upper gap-filling member 81, which is provided at the top of the vertical frame 53 and positioned between the vertical frame 53 and the upper frame 21, and a lower gap-filling member 82, which is provided at the bottom of the vertical frame 53 and positioned between the vertical frame 53 and the lower frame 22, are provided as gap-filling members, but the embodiment is not limited to this. It is also possible to have a configuration in which only one of the upper gap-filling member 81, which is provided at the top of the vertical frame 53 and positioned between the vertical frame 53 and the upper frame 21, or the lower gap-filling member 82, which is provided at the bottom of the vertical frame 53 and positioned between the vertical frame 53 and the lower frame 22, is provided.

[0094] The door 1 of this embodiment provides, for example, the following effects. The door 1 of this embodiment comprises a frame 2, an outer sash 5 arranged to be movable laterally within the frame 2 and having a vertical frame 54 on the door-end side and a glass panel 55, a first mullion 31 arranged opposite the depth direction of the vertical frame 54 when the outer sash 5 is in the closed position, a glass panel 411 attached to the first mullion 31 and extending in the face direction, and an insect-proof component 7 that protrudes in the depth direction from the first mullion 31 toward the glass panel 55 of the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side of the outer sash 5 when the outer sash 5 is in the open position, and the insect-proof component 7 can be attached to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the depth direction.

[0095] This allows the mounting position of the insect-proof component 7 in the depth direction to be adjusted even if the thickness of the glass panel changes. Therefore, even if the thickness of the glass panel changes, the position of the insect-proof component 7 in the depth direction can be adjusted to a position that is far enough away from the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 and the indoor side X2 surface 55a of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 to prevent insects from entering, thus easily preventing insects from entering between the outer sash 5 and the mullion 31. In addition, since the tip 711 of the insect-proof packing 71 is positioned slightly away from the visible surface 55a of the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 without touching it, it is possible to prevent the insect-proof packing 71 from getting caught on the visible surface 55a of the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, or from rubbing against the visible surface 55a of the indoor side X2 of the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5 and soiling it by wiping. Furthermore, by making the insect-repellent component 7 an attachment type, it is easy to handle and can be easily attached to the first mullion 31 by adjusting the position of the insect-repellent component 7 in the direction of projection.

[0096] In this embodiment, the insect-repellent component 7 is fixed to the first mullion 31 by a screw 721a that can be fastened by screwing it into the first mullion 31, with its position in the depth direction adjusted. This allows the insect-repellent component 7 to be fixed with the screw 721a at any position in the depth direction of the first mullion 31, making it easy to adjust the mounting position of the insect-repellent component 7 in the depth direction.

[0097] In this embodiment, the insect-proof component 7 includes an insect-proof component mounting portion 72 that can be attached to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the depth direction, and an insect-proof packing 71 that is attached to the insect-proof component mounting portion 72 and protrudes in the depth direction. As a result, by simply adjusting the position of the insect-proof component mounting portion 72 in the depth direction and attaching it to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31, the position of the insect-proof packing 71 attached to the insect-proof component mounting portion 72 in the depth direction can be easily adjusted.

[0098] In this embodiment, the insect-proof packing 71 is made of a resin plate-shaped packing member. As a result, because the insect-proof packing 71 is made of resin, it is less likely to damage other components, and even if a person's fingers or other body parts get caught between the insect-proof packing 71 and the glass panel 55 of the outer sash 5, injury can be prevented.

[0099] In this embodiment, the insect-proof component mounting section 72 includes a mounting section body 721 that can be fixed to the surface of the first mullion 31 by adjusting its position in the depth direction, and a cover section 722 that engages with and is attached to the mounting section body 721. The insect-proof packing 71 is attached to the cover section 722. As a result, the cover section 722 can be attached to the mounting section body 721 after the mounting section body 721 has been fixed to the first mullion 31 with screws 721a, so that the screws 721a that fixed the mounting section body 721 can be hidden by the cover section 722. Thus, the aesthetic appearance can be improved.

[0100] The door 1 of this embodiment comprises an outer shoji screen 5 having a vertical frame 53 and positioned within a frame 2, and gap-filling members (upper gap-filling member 81, lower gap-filling member 82) provided on the vertical frame 53 to fill the vertical gap between the vertical frame 53 and the frame 2. This prevents insects from entering the interior X2 through the vertical gap between the vertical frame 53 and the frame 2.

[0101] In this embodiment, the gap-filling member includes at least one of an upper gap-filling member 81 provided at the upper part of the vertical frame 53 and positioned between the vertical frame 53 and the upper frame 21, and a lower gap-filling member 82 provided at the lower part of the vertical frame 53 and positioned between the vertical frame 53 and the lower frame 22.

[0102] Here, after the outer sliding door 5 is installed in the frame 2, adjustments such as adjusting the rollers may be made, resulting in differences in the size of the gap at the top of the vertical frame 53 and the size of the gap at the bottom of the vertical frame 53 between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53. In such cases, by providing at least one or both of the upper gap-filling member 81 and the lower gap-filling member 82 according to the size of the gap at the top of the vertical frame 53 and the size of the gap at the bottom of the vertical frame 53 between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53, it is possible to effectively prevent insects from entering the interior side X2.

[0103] In this embodiment, the upper gap-filling member 81 includes a spacer material 811 positioned on the upper surface of the vertical frame 53, and a gap-filling cover material 812 that fixes the spacer material 811 to the vertical frame 53 while sandwiching it between the spacer material 811 and the upper surface of the vertical frame 53. This allows the vertical thickness of the spacer material 811 to be easily adjusted by changing the number and thickness of the spacers, thereby easily accommodating the size of the gap between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53 and easily filling the vertical gap between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53.

[0104] In this embodiment, the spacer material 811 is positioned between the upper surface of the vertical frame 53 and the gap-filling cover material 812 while exhibiting elastic restorative force. This allows the vertical thickness of the spacer material 811 to be adjusted by elastically deforming the spacer material 811, so that the spacer material 811 can easily fill the vertical gap between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53, corresponding to the size of the gap between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53.

[0105] In this embodiment, the gap-filling cover material 812 includes a side fixing plate 8121 which is formed in the shape of a plate that extends vertically along the vertical direction of the vertical frame 53 and is fixed to the side surface of the vertical frame 53, and a top plate 8122 which is formed in the shape of a plate that extends horizontally from the side fixing plate 8121 at a position above the top surface of the vertical frame 53 and is provided with a spacer material 811 sandwiched between it and the top surface of the vertical frame 53.

[0106] As a result, the spacer material 811 can be easily attached to the upper surface of the vertical frame 53 by the gap-filling cover material 812. Furthermore, if the spacer material 811 is positioned to exhibit elastic restorative force, the spacer material 811 can be deformed to a thickness corresponding to the size of the gap between the upper surface of the vertical frame 53 and the gap-filling cover material 812 while being pressed from above, thereby filling the spacer material 811 between the upper surface of the vertical frame 53 and the gap-filling cover material 812. This allows for easy adaptation to the size of the vertical gap between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53, and the vertical gap between the frame 2 and the vertical frame 53 can be easily filled.

[0107] In this embodiment, the side fixing plate 8121 is fixed to the side of the vertical frame 53 by a screw 813, and has an elongated through-hole 8121a that extends vertically, through which the shaft of the screw 813 passes. This makes it easy to finely adjust the vertical position of the gap-filling cover material 812 by moving the elongated through-hole 8121a vertically along the screw 813.

[0108] Next, a second embodiment will be described. In the second embodiment, an insect-repellent component 7A is provided instead of the insect-repellent component 7 of the first embodiment. In the second embodiment, the insect-repellent component 7A is attached to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5, whereas the insect-repellent component 7 of the first embodiment is attached to the depth surface 311b of the first mullion 31. In the description of the second embodiment, the same configuration as in the first embodiment will be omitted.

[0109] As shown in Figures 13 to 15, the insect-proof component 7A of the second embodiment is attached to the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5. As shown in Figure 15, the insect-proof component 7A is formed to protrude in the depth direction from the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 toward the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41, at least when the outer sash 5 is in the open position, and is positioned opposite the visible surface 411a on the outdoor side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41. In this embodiment, whether the outer sash 5 is in the closed position (see Figure 14) or in the open position (see Figure 15), the insect-proof component 7A is formed to protrude in the depth direction from the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 toward the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41, and is positioned opposite the visible surface 411a on the outdoor side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41. The insect-proof component 7A can be attached to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 by adjusting its position in the depth direction.

[0110] As shown in Figures 14 and 15, the insect-proof component 7A comprises an insect-proof packing 75 (protruding component body) and an insect-proof component mounting portion 76 (mounting portion). The insect-proof packing 75 and the insect-proof component mounting portion 76 extend in the vertical direction, as shown in Figure 13. The insect-proof component mounting portion 76 can be attached to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the door edge side by adjusting its position in the depth direction. The insect-proof packing 75 is attached to the insect-proof component mounting portion 76 and protrudes from the insect-proof component mounting portion 76 toward the interior side X2 in the depth direction.

[0111] As shown in Figures 14 and 15, the insect-repellent component mounting section 76 has a mounting section body 761 and a cover section 762. The mounting section body 761 can be fixed to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5 by adjusting its position in the depth direction. The cover section 762 is attached by engaging with the mounting section body 761.

[0112] The mounting body 761 is formed in a U-shape in cross-section, with the other side in the left-right direction (the right side in Figures 14 and 15) open. The mounting body 761 has a plate-shaped mounting fixing plate 7611 that has a predetermined width in the depth direction and extends in the vertical direction, and a pair of body-side protrusions 7612 that project from both ends of the mounting fixing plate 7611 in the width direction (depth direction) to the other side in the left-right direction (the right side in Figures 14 and 15). A body-side engaging projection 7612a is formed in the middle of the projection direction of each of the pair of body-side protrusions 7612, projecting outwards to the outer circumference of the U-shaped portion of the mounting body 761.

[0113] The mounting plate 7611 is fixed to the other side (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side by screws 761a (fastening screws). The shaft of the screw 761a is positioned to penetrate the mounting plate 7611 in the left-right direction. When fixing the mounting plate 7611 to the other side (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side of the outer sash 5 by screws 761a into the other side (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side of the outer sash 5 by screws 761a into the other side (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the door-end side of the outer sash 5 by screws 761a. As a result, the mounting body 761 of the insect-proof component 7A is fixed to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5 by screwing in a screw 761a, which can be fastened by screwing it into the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5, while adjusting its position in the depth direction.

[0114] The cover portion 762 is formed in a U-shape in cross-section, with one side in the left-right direction (the left side in Figures 14 and 15) open. The cover portion 762 is attached to the mounting portion body 761 with the open side of the cover portion 762 positioned to overlap the open side of the mounting portion body 761. Since the cover portion 762 can be attached to the mounting portion body 761 after the mounting portion body 761 has been fixed to the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 with screws 761a, the cover portion 762 can hide the screws 761a that fix the mounting portion body 761.

[0115] The cover portion 762 is positioned on the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the tip of a pair of body-side protrusions 7612 of the mounting portion body 761 and has a predetermined width in the depth direction and extends in the vertical direction; a pair of cover-side protrusions 7622 protruding from both ends in the width direction (depth direction) of the cover plate 7621 to one side in the left-right direction (left side in Figures 14 and 15); and a packing mounting groove 7623 formed on the indoor side X2 of the indoor side X2 of the pair of cover-side protrusions 7622.

[0116] At the midpoint of the protruding direction of each of the pair of cover-side protrusions 7622, ​​a cover-side engaging projection 7622a is formed that protrudes toward the inner circumference of the U-shaped portion of the cover portion 762. When the cover portion 762 is attached to the mounting portion body 761, the pair of cover-side engaging projections 7622a engage with the pair of body-side engaging projections 7612a of the body-side protrusion 7612.

[0117] The packing mounting groove 7623 is formed in a C-shape on the indoor side surface of the cover-side projection 7622 on the indoor side X2, opening to the indoor side X2. The base end portion of the insect-proof packing 75 is attached to the packing mounting groove 7623.

[0118] The insect-proof packing 75 is formed to protrude from the packing mounting groove 7623 toward the interior side X2 when installed in the packing mounting groove 7623. The insect-proof packing 75 protrudes toward the interior side X2 at an angle from the packing mounting groove 7623 toward the interior side X2, moving from the side away from the outer periphery of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 (the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figures 14 and 15)) toward the side closer to the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 (the other side in the left-right direction (left side in Figures 14 and 15)) as it moves from the exterior side X1 toward the interior side X2. The insect-proof packing 75 is made of a fin-shaped plate-shaped packing member made of resin, or a mohair member, etc.

[0119] The tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 is positioned slightly away from the exterior surface X1 411a of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41, so that a gap S2 is formed between it and the exterior surface X1 411a of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41. The position where the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 is slightly away from the exterior surface X1 411a of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41 means that when the outer sash 5 is opened, the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 does not come into contact with the exterior surface X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41, and is far enough away that insects cannot enter through the gap between the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 and the exterior surface X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41. The size of the gap S2 between the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 and the exterior X1 surface 411a of the glass panel 411 of the FIX window section 41 is such that insects cannot enter when the outer sash 5 is opened, and as shown in Figure 13, it is uniformly formed at any position in the vertical direction. The size of the gap S2 between the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 and the exterior X1 surface 411a of the glass panel 411 of the FIX window section 41 when the outer sash 5 is opened is, for example, 1.5 mm or less.

[0120] By providing the insect-proof component 7A described above, the insect-proof component 7A can be attached to the surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 by adjusting its position in the depth direction. This allows the position of the insect-proof component 7A in the depth direction to be adjusted to a position far enough away from the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 and the visible surface 411a of the exterior side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the FIX window section 41 to prevent insects from entering between the outer sash 5 and the mullion 31 when the outer sash 5 is opened. Furthermore, since the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 is positioned slightly away from the visible surface 411a of the exterior side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41, it is possible to prevent the insect-proof packing 75 from getting caught on the visible surface 411a of the exterior side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41, or from rubbing the visible surface 411a of the exterior side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the fixed window section 41 and soiling it by wiping.

[0121] When attaching the insect-proof component 7A to the vertical frame 54 on the door end side, after providing the fixed window section 41 and the fixed window section 42 and positioning the outer sash 5 on one side of the frame 2 in the left-right direction (the left side in Figure 1), the insect-proof component 7A is attached to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the door end side of the outer sash 5, with its position adjusted in the depth direction. The insect-proof component 7A in this embodiment is an attachment type that can be installed after the outer sash 5 has been installed.

[0122] When attaching the insect-proof component 7A to the vertical frame 54 on the tail end of the outer sash 5, first, in order to align the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75, the position in the depth direction is adjusted so that the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 is positioned at a distance of a gap S2 from the visible surface 411a on the exterior side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the FIX window section 41. Then, the insect-proof component 7A, with the cover part 762 attached to the mounting part body 761 of the insect-proof component mounting part 76 and the insect-proof packing 75 attached to the cover part 762, is temporarily fixed to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end of the outer sash 5 using double-sided tape or the like. After that, with the mounting part body 761 remaining on the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end of the outer sash 5, the cover part 762 is removed from the mounting part body 761.

[0123] Next, the mounting plate 7611 of the mounting unit body 761, whose position in the depth direction has been adjusted, is fixed to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 with screws 761a. When fixing the mounting plate 7611 to the depth surface 5431b on the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5, the shaft of the screw 761a is passed through the mounting plate 7611 of the mounting unit body 761, and the screw 761a is screwed into the depth surface 5431b on the other side in the left-right direction (right side in Figures 14 and 15) of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5. As a result, the insect-proof component 7A can be fastened to the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 by screwing it into the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sash 5 using a screw 761a, adjusting its position in the depth direction so that the tip 751 of the insect-proof packing 75 is positioned at a distance of the size of the gap S2 from the visible surface 411a on the exterior side X1 of the glass panel 411 of the FIX window section 41. After that, the cover section 762 with the insect-proof packing 75 attached is attached to the mounting section body 761.

[0124] Alternatively, to fix the mounting body 761 of the insect-repellent component 7A to the mounting surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5 by adjusting its position in the depth direction, screw holes may be provided in the mounting surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5, and elongated holes may be provided in the mounting fixing plate 7611 of the mounting body 761. Screws may then be passed through the screw holes in the mounting surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5 and the elongated holes in the mounting fixing plate 7611 of the mounting body 761, thereby adjusting the position of the mounting body 761 of the insect-repellent component 7A in the depth direction and fixing it to the mounting surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5. In this case, the mounting body 761 of the insect-repellent component 7A can be adjusted in the depth direction and fixed to the depth surface 5431b of the vertical frame 54 on the tail end side of the outer sliding door 5, after which the mounting body 761 of the insect-repellent component 7A can be adjusted in the depth direction.
