DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] Hereinafter, the first embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In this specification, the term "view direction" refers to the surface direction of the glass in the shoji (first shoji 3, second shoji 4) placed in the opening 100 (building opening) formed in the wall of the building, and the term "view direction" refers to the thickness direction of the glass, that is, the depth direction connecting two spaces connected through the opening 100. In this embodiment, the space on one side (the right side in FIG. 2, the front side in FIG. 3) is the first space FS, and the space on the other side (the left side in FIG. 2, the back side in FIG. 3) is the second space SS.

[0009] An indoor fitting 1 including indoor shoji screens (first shoji screen 3, second shoji screen 4) (panel body) of this embodiment will be described. As shown in Fig. 1, the shoji screens (first shoji screen 3, second shoji screen 4) of this embodiment are indoor panel bodies arranged in an indoor space. The shoji screens (first shoji screen 3, second shoji screen 4) are housed indoors between an upper rail 21 and a vibration stopper 22 provided at an opening 100 in the wall of a building.

[0010] In this embodiment, the fitting 1 is disposed at an opening 100 between a first space FS and a second space SS in two adjacent spaces in an indoor space. The fitting 1 is formed in the shape of a wall that divides the indoor space into the first space FS and the second space SS.

[0011] The fitting 1 is a so-called sliding window, and as shown in Figs. 1 to 3, it comprises an upper rail 21, a vibration prevention part 22, and a first shoji screen 3 (panel body) and a second shoji screen 4 (panel body) that are arranged in an opening 100 of a building so as to be able to be opened and closed. The first shoji screen 3 is arranged on the first space FS side. The second shoji screen 4 is arranged on the second space SS side.

[0012] As shown in Fig. 1, the upper rail 21 extends in the left-right direction (horizontal direction) in the front view direction on the ceiling 11. The upper rail 21 is fixed to the ceiling structure of the ceiling 11. As shown in Fig. 2, the upper rail 21 has a first shoji rail 211 arranged on the first space FS side, and a second shoji rail 212 arranged on the second space SS side. The first shoji rail 211 and the second shoji rail 212 are arranged side by side in the front view direction and are connected to each other at their lower parts.

[0013] The first shoji rail 211 is disposed on the first space FS side of the upper rail 21, and has a cross-sectional shape formed into a generally C-shaped frame that is open downwards. A hoist 39 attached to the upper end of the first shoji 3 is disposed on the first shoji rail 211 so as to be movable in the left-right direction. The second shoji rail 212 is disposed on the second space SS side of the upper rail 21, and has a cross-sectional shape formed into a generally C-shaped frame that is open downwards. A hoist 49 attached to the upper end of the second shoji 4 is disposed on the second shoji rail 212 so as to be movable in the left-right direction.

[0014] The anti-sway portion 22 has a first anti-sway portion 221 and a second anti-sway portion 222. The anti-sway portion 22 is fixed to the floor 12.

[0015] The first shoji anti-sway part 221 is erected facing upward on the first space FS side. The first shoji anti-sway part 221 is inserted into a lower open frame 322a attached to a lower rail guide 322 formed at the lower end of the lower frame 32 of the first shoji 3. As a result, the lower open frame 322a attached to the lower rail guide 322 of the lower frame 32 of the first shoji 3 is guided by the first shoji anti-sway part 221, and the first shoji 3 can slide along the left-right direction of the upper rail 21.

[0016] The second shoji anti-sway part 222 is erected facing upward on the second space SS side. The second shoji anti-sway part 222 is inserted into a lower open frame 422a attached to a lower rail guide 422 formed at the lower end of the lower frame 42 of the second shoji 4. As a result, the lower open frame 422a attached to the lower rail guide 422 of the lower frame 42 of the second shoji 4 is guided by the second shoji anti-sway part 222, and the second shoji 4 can slide along the left-right direction of the upper rail 21.

[0017] The first shoji screen 3 and the second shoji screen 4 are both sliding doors that are configured to be able to slide left and right (horizontally) in the front direction, thereby forming so-called sliding windows that close and open the opening 100 of the building.

[0018] As shown in Figures 1 to 5, the first shoji screen 3 includes a frame body 35 (frame body) formed by a rectangular frame of a long upper frame 31 (horizontal frame, frame), a lower frame 32 (horizontal frame, frame), and left and right vertical frames 33, 34 (frames), and glass 36 (face material) fitted and fixed in the frame body 35. As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the second shoji screen 4 includes a frame body 45 (frame body) formed by a rectangular frame of a long upper frame 41 (horizontal frame, frame), a lower frame 42 (horizontal frame, frame), and left and right vertical frames 43, 44 (frames), and glass 46 (face material) fitted and fixed in the frame body 45.

[0019] In this embodiment, the first shoji 3 and the second shoji 4 have the same structure. Therefore, in the following description, the structure of the first shoji 3 will be described, and the description of the structure of the second shoji 4 will be omitted by assigning corresponding reference numerals. The description of the structure of the first shoji 3 can be applied to the description of the structure of the second shoji 4.

[0020] 4 and 5, in the first shoji screen 3, an upper corner piece 5 (corner piece) is attached to an upper corner portion 301 (corner portion) formed by the vertical frames 33, 34 and the upper frame 31. A lower corner piece 6 is attached to a lower corner portion 302 formed by the vertical frames 33, 34 and the lower frame 32.

[0021] As shown in Fig. 6, the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 of the first shoji screen 3 are formed to have the same shape that is symmetrical in the vertical direction when the first shoji screen 3 shown in Fig. 4 is cut along the forward direction and the vertical direction and viewed in the left-right direction. Both the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 extend in the left-right direction.

[0022] As shown in Fig. 6, the upper frame 31 includes a glass groove 311 (surface material placement groove) formed in the lower portion and opening downward, an upper rail guide 312 formed in the upper portion and opening upward, a pair of hollow frame portions 313 having hollow portions 313a arranged on both outer sides in the projection direction with the glass groove 311 in between, and a decorative sheet 318 (surface material). The upper end of the glass 36 is placed in the glass groove 311. At least two setting blocks 361 are placed in the glass groove 311 between the upper end of the glass 36 and the upper frame 31, partially in the longitudinal direction of the upper frame 31, as shown in Fig. 5.

[0023] As shown in Fig. 6, the lower frame 32 includes a glass groove 321 (surface material placement groove) formed in the upper portion and opening upward, a lower rail guide 322 formed in the lower portion and opening upward, a pair of hollow frame portions 323 having hollow portions 323a arranged on both outer sides in the projection direction with the glass groove 321 in between, and a decorative sheet 328 (surface material). The lower end of the glass 36 is placed in the glass groove 321. At least two setting blocks 361 are placed in the glass groove 321 partially in the longitudinal direction of the lower frame 32 between the lower end of the glass 36 and the lower frame 32, as shown in Fig. 5.

[0024] 6, in the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32, a pair of hollow frame portions 313, 323 are disposed spaced apart in the projection direction across the glass grooves 311, 321. The pair of hollow frame portions 313, 323 each have a laterally extending projection surface 314, 324, a first tapered inclined surface 315, 325 (inclined surface, horizontal frame-side inclined surface), and a second tapered inclined surface 316, 326 (inclined surface, horizontal frame-side inclined surface).

[0025] Screw holes 317, 327 are formed inside the pair of hollow frame parts 313, 323, respectively. The screw holes 317, 327 are formed at the outer corners in the projection direction on the glass 36 side in the vertical direction inside the hollow frame parts 313, 323. Screws for fixing the upper and lower frames 31, 32 to the vertical frames 33, 34 are inserted into the screw holes 317, 327.

[0026] The laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 each have a width W1 in the vertical direction and extend in the left-right direction when viewed from the front from the first space FS side and the second space SS side, as shown in Fig. 6. The laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 are surfaces parallel to the vertical direction formed at the outermost ends in the projection direction of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32, and are formed as flat surfaces extending in the left-right direction with a width W1 in the vertical direction.

[0027] The width W1 of the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 is the same. When viewed from the front from the first space FS side and the second space SS side, the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 are visually recognized by the user as extending in the left-right direction with the width W1. The size of the width W1 of the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 is the same as the size of the width W2 of the vertically extending sight surfaces 383a (see FIG. 4) of the vertical frames 33, 34 described later.

[0028] As shown in Fig. 6, the first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 and the second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 are formed on the upper and lower sides of the width direction of the sight surfaces (the laterally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31 and the laterally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32) to continue to the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324. The first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 and the second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 are formed in a tapered shape that slopes from the front side to the back side of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 as it moves from the outer end of the width direction (prospect direction) of the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 toward the outer side (lower or upper side) of the width direction of the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324. The first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 and the second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 are formed in a planar shape inclined relative to the laterally extending facing surfaces 314, 324.

[0029] As shown in Fig. 6, the first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 are formed on the side where the glass 36 is arranged in the width direction (up-down direction) of the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 (the lower side in the upper frame 31, and the upper side in the lower frame 32). The first tapered inclined surface 315 of the upper frame 31 is inclined from the front side to the back side in the projection direction as it moves downward from the lower end of the width direction of the laterally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31. The first tapered inclined surface 325 of the lower frame 32 is inclined from the front side to the back side in the projection direction as it moves upward from the upper end of the width direction of the laterally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32.

[0030] The first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 are formed such that the inclination angle of the first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 with respect to the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 is a first inclination angle θ1. The first inclination angle θ1 is preferably an inclination angle at which the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 are visually recognized to be prominent. In this embodiment, the first inclination angle θ1 is, for example, 75° to 85°.

[0031] As shown in Fig. 6, the second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 are formed on the side opposite to the side where the glass 36 is arranged in the width direction (upward and downward direction) of the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 (upper side in the upper frame 31, lower side in the lower frame 32). The second tapered inclined surface 316 of the upper frame 31 is inclined from the front side to the back side in the projection direction as it moves upward from the upper end of the width direction of the laterally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31. The second tapered inclined surface 326 of the lower frame 32 is inclined from the front side to the back side in the projection direction as it moves downward from the lower end of the width direction of the laterally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32.

[0032] The second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 are formed such that the angle of the second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 with respect to the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 is a second inclination angle θ2. The second inclination angle θ2 is preferably an inclination angle at which the laterally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 are visually recognized to be prominent. In this embodiment, the second inclination angle θ2 is, for example, 15° to 45°. In this embodiment, the second inclination angle θ2 is smaller than the first inclination angle θ1. In other words, the first inclination angle θ1 is larger than the second inclination angle θ2.

[0033] By forming the first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 and the second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326, the width of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 can be secured to secure the size in the width direction to secure the arrangement space for the hoist 39, etc., while the width of the sight surface (the laterally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31 and the laterally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32) can be formed to width W1. In the lower frame 32, by providing the second tapered inclined surface 326, it becomes difficult for the toes of a person's feet to hit the lower frame 32.

[0034] 6, a decorative sheet 318 is provided on the surface of the upper frame 31. The decorative sheet 318 is attached to the upper frame 31 from the glass groove 311 side, covering the first tapered inclined surface 315, the laterally extending visible surface 314, the second tapered inclined surface 316, and partway over the upper surface of the upper frame 31. A decorative sheet 328 is provided on the surface of the lower frame 32. The decorative sheet 328 is attached to the lower frame 32 from the glass groove 321 side, covering the first tapered inclined surface 325, the laterally extending visible surface 324, the second tapered inclined surface 326, and partway over the lower surface of the lower frame 32.

[0035] 2, the upper rail guide 312 is formed to be open upward. The lower mounting plate 391 of the hoist 39 is housed and fixed in the upper rail guide 312. When the hoist 39 moves left and right on the first shoji rail 211 of the upper rail 21, the first shoji 3 slides left and right (horizontally).

[0036] The lower rail guide 322 is formed to be open downward. A downward open frame 322a (see Figs. 2 and 5) that opens downward is attached to the lower rail guide 322. The first shoji anti-sway part 221 of the anti-sway part 22 is disposed inside the downward open frame 322a attached to the lower rail guide 322, and guides the sliding movement of the first shoji 3 in the left-right direction (horizontal direction).

[0037] As shown in Fig. 7, the left and right vertical frames 33, 34 of the first shoji screen 3 are formed to have the same symmetrical cross-sectional shape when the first shoji screen 3 shown in Fig. 1 is cut horizontally and viewed in the up-down direction. The left and right vertical frames 33, 34 both extend in the left-right direction. The vertical frames 33, 34 have a vertical base member 37, a vertical cover member 38, and a first blocking member 71 (blocking member). The vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 are formed to have the same symmetrical cross-sectional shape.

[0038] The vertical base member 37 has a glass groove frame 371 (surface material arrangement frame) which is U-shaped in cross section and which is formed with the inner glass 36 side open in the left-right direction and which protrudes outward in the left-right direction, a pair of extending plate portions 372 (base member side extending portions in the prospective direction) which extend outward in both prospective directions from both ends of the open side of the U-shape of the glass groove frame 371, a protruding piece 373 (base member side protruding portion) which protrudes outward in the left-right direction from the outer end of the extending plate portion 372 in the prospective direction, and a decorative sheet 378 (surface material).

[0039] The left and right ends of the glass 36 are disposed in the glass groove frame 371. At least two setting blocks 361 are disposed between the left and right ends of the glass 36 and the left and right vertical frames 33, 34 in the open side of the glass groove frame 371, partially in the longitudinal direction of the left and right vertical frames 33, 34, as shown in FIG. 5. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, a base member side engaging portion 371b consisting of a plurality of protrusions is formed on an outer surface 371d on the outside of the projection direction of the glass groove frame 371. When the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, the cover member side engaging portion 382b of the vertical cover member 38 engages with the base member side engaging portion 371b.

[0040] A decorative sheet 378 is provided on the surface of the vertical base member 37. The decorative sheet 378 is attached across the inner surfaces of the pair of extending plate portions 372 in the left-right direction and the outer surfaces of the protruding pieces 373 in the projection direction.

[0041] The vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37 on the outside in the left-right direction of the vertical base member 37 so as to cover the outside in the left-right direction of the vertical base member 37. The vertical cover member 38 has a prospective direction extending plate 381 (cover member side prospective direction extending portion), an open frame portion 382 formed in the center in the prospective direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381, a pair of vertical direction extending plates 383 (cover member side extending portions), and a decorative sheet 388 (surface material).

[0042] The projection direction extending plate 381 is formed in a flat plate shape and is arranged in a plate shape extending in the projection direction. The projection direction extending plate 381 is arranged on the outer side in the left-right direction of the vertical base member 37, and is arranged at the outermost position in the left-right direction of the vertical frames 33 and 34.

[0043] The open frame portion 382 opens toward the inside in the left-right direction. When the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, the open frame portion 382 is disposed with the outer convex portion 371a in the left-right direction of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37.

[0044] The open frame portion 382 is formed by a pair of protruding plates 382a (cover member side engagement protrusions) that protrude inward in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381 and the central portion of the prospective direction extending plate 381 in the prospective direction, and is open toward the inside in the left-right direction.

[0045] The pair of protruding plates 382a are arranged spaced apart in the prospective direction at the center of the prospective direction extending plate 381 in the prospective direction. The pair of protruding plates 382a are formed protruding from the inner surfaces in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381 toward the vertical base member 37 at the center of the prospective direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381. The pair of protruding plates 382a are arranged along the outer outer surfaces 371d in the prospective direction of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 so as to sandwich the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 in the prospective direction.

[0046] A cover member side engaging portion 382b consisting of a plurality of protrusions is formed on the inner surface of the pair of protruding plates 382a in the projection direction. When the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, a base member side engaging portion 371b formed on the outer surface of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 in the projection direction engages with the cover member side engaging portion 382b.

[0047] 7, the pair of vertically extending plates 383 each extend inward in the left-right direction from the end of the prospective direction extending plate 381 in the prospective direction. The vertically extending plate 383 has a vertically extending sight surface 383a. The vertically extending sight surface 383a is formed to have a width W2 in the left-right direction when viewed from the front from the first space FS side and the second space SS side, and extends in the up-down direction.

[0048] The vertically extending visible surface 383a is a surface parallel to the vertical direction formed at the outermost end of the vertical frames 33, 34 in the visible direction, and is formed as a plane extending in the up-down direction with a width W2 in the left-right direction.

[0049] In the vertical frames 33, 34, the width W2 of the vertically extending sight surface 383a is formed to be the same size. When viewed from the front from the first space FS side and the second space SS side, the vertically extending sight surface 383a is visually recognized by the user as extending in the up-down direction with the width W2. The size of the width W2 of the vertically extending sight surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34 is the same as the size of the width W1 of the horizontally extending sight surfaces 314, 324 of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32.

[0050] The first blocking member 71 is provided between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 in a state in which the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37. The first blocking member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 so as to fill the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first blocking member 71 is disposed between an outer surface 371c in the left-right direction of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 and a central inner surface 381a in the prospective direction on the inner side in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381 of the vertical cover member 38. The central inner surface 381a in the prospective direction is a surface formed on the inner side in the left-right direction at the central side in the prospective direction of the range between the pair of protruding plates 382a of the prospective direction extending plate 381, and is a surface facing inward in the left-right direction.

[0052] The first blocking member 71 is positioned between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 with the cover member side engagement portion 382b of the vertical cover member 38 engaged with the base member side engagement portion 371b of the vertical base member 37 in a state having an elastic rebound force.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first blocking member 71 is made of a member that exerts an elastic repulsive force when sandwiched between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. For example, the first blocking member 71 is made of a cushioning material that exerts an elastic repulsive force. The cushioning material that has a cushioning property may be made of, for example, an airtight material. In this embodiment, as the first blocking member 71 that has an elastic repulsive force, a member that has a thickness of about 5 mm before the first blocking member 71 is crushed when the gap distance between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 is less than 1 mm is used as one example.

[0054] In the first embodiment, when the first closing member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 and the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37 with the first closing member 71 affixed to the outer surface 371c in the left-right direction of the glass groove frame 371, as shown in Fig. 8. When attaching the vertical cover member 38 to the vertical base member 37, the cover member side engaging portion 382b of the vertical cover member 38 is engaged with the base member side engaging portion 371b of the vertical base member 37, and the first closing member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 in a state where it is crushed and has an elastic repulsive force.

[0055] As shown in Fig. 7, a decorative sheet 388 is provided on the surface of the vertical cover member 38. The decorative sheet 388 has a central portion attached to the outer surface in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381 extending in the prospective direction, and end portions are folded toward the vertically extending sight surface 383a at the outer end of the prospective direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381, and attached to the outer surface of the vertically extending sight surface 383a in the prospective direction. Both ends of the decorative sheet 388 are folded back at the inner end of the left-right direction of the vertically extending sight surface 383a so as to turn 180° inward in the prospective direction of the vertically extending sight surface 383a, and attached to the inner surface of the vertically extending plate 383 in the prospective direction.

[0056] 5, in the vertical frames 33 and 34, the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37 so as to cover the vertical base member 37, so that when the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 are fixed to the vertical frames 33 and 34, the screws that fix the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32 to the vertical base member 37 can be hidden by the vertical cover member 38. This improves the design.

[0057] 7, in the vertical frames 33, 34, the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37 so as to cover the vertical base member 37, so that the ends of the decorative sheets 378, 388 are disposed on the inner surface in the expected direction of the vertical extension plate 383. This makes it possible to improve the design since the ends of the decorative sheets 378, 388 are not visible from the outside.

[0058] In the above upper frame 31 and lower frame 32, as shown in Fig. 4, the widths W1 of the laterally extending facing surfaces 314, 324 are formed to be the same size. In the pair of vertical frames 33, 34, the widths W2 of the vertically extending facing surfaces 383a are formed to be the same size. Furthermore, the widths W1 of the laterally extending facing surfaces 314, 324 of the upper frame 31 and lower frame 32 are formed to be the same size as the widths W2 of the vertically extending facing surfaces 383a of the pair of vertical frames 33, 34.

[0059] As a result, the widths W1, W2 of the sight surfaces (the horizontally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31, the horizontally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32, and the vertically extending sight surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34) of the upper frame 31, the lower frame 32, and the pair of vertical frames 33, 34 are all the same, and the sight surfaces of the same widths W1, W2 (the horizontally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31, the horizontally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32, the vertically extending sight surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34) are arranged continuously, so that the four circumferences of the frame body 35 are unified and continuous when viewed from the front from the first space FS side and the second space SS side. Therefore, continuity is created in the visible surfaces (the laterally extending visible surface 314 of the upper frame 31, the laterally extending visible surface 324 of the lower frame 32, and the vertically extending visible surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34) creating a sense of unity, thereby improving the design.

[0060] In this embodiment, for example, in the upper frame 31, the lower frame 32, and the pair of vertical frames 33, 34, the widths W1, W2 of the facing surfaces (the horizontally extending facing surface 314 of the upper frame 31, the horizontally extending facing surface 324 of the lower frame 32, and the vertically extending facing surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34) are made the same, and the widths W1, W2 of the facing surfaces (the horizontally extending facing surface 314 of the upper frame 31, the horizontally extending facing surface 324 of the lower frame 32, and the vertically extending facing surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34) are made small, with the aim of achieving a neat appearance. Conventionally, even if it was attempted to reduce the width of the facing surface, particularly in the upper frame 31, it was difficult to narrow the width of the upper frame 31 itself, because the upper frame 31 often had parts such as a hoist placed thereon.

[0061] In contrast to this, in the present disclosure, first tapered inclined surfaces 315, 325 and second tapered inclined surfaces 316, 326 are provided on the upper and lower width sides of the sight surfaces (laterally extending sight surface 314 of upper frame 31, horizontally extending sight surface 324 of lower frame 32) of the upper frame 31 and the lower frame 32, thereby making the sight surfaces parallel to the vertical direction (laterally extending sight surface 314 of upper frame 31, horizontally extending sight surface 324 of lower frame 32) stand out, and achieving uniformity by forming the widths of the sight surfaces the same in the upper frame 31, the lower frame 32 and the pair of vertical frames 33, 34. In this embodiment, for example, the widths W1, W2 of the sight surfaces (the horizontally extending sight surface 314 of the upper frame 31, the horizontally extending sight surface 324 of the lower frame 32, and the vertically extending sight surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34) are unified by forming them to the same width, for example 12 mm.

[0062] In this manner, in this embodiment, the width of the visible surfaces of the upper frame 31, the lower frame 32 and the pair of vertical frames 33, 34 are made uniform and the width of the visible surfaces of the frame 31, the lower frame 32 and the pair of vertical frames 33, 34 are made narrow, thereby aiming to create a sense of luxury.

[0063] In this embodiment, the plate thickness of the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 is formed thin in order to reduce the width W2 of the vertical extending visible surface 383a of the vertical frames 33, 34. Therefore, if there is a gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the vertical cover member 38 may rattle against the vertical base member 37 when the first shoji screen 3 is operated, and the sense of luxury may be lost. Also, if there is a gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, a light, high-pitched sound may be produced when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger, which may reduce the sense of luxury.

[0064] In contrast, in the present disclosure, the first closing member 71 fills the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, thereby suppressing rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. In addition, since the first closing member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the sound produced when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger is lowered, creating a sense of solidity and providing a sense of luxury.

[0065] According to this embodiment, the following effects are achieved. The indoor panel body 3 of this embodiment includes a frame body 35 formed by framing a pair of vertical frames 33, 34, an upper frame 31, and a lower frame 32, and glass 36 arranged within the frame body 35. At least one of the pair of vertical frames 33, 34, the upper frame 31, and the lower frame 32 has a vertical base member 37, a vertical cover member 38 arranged to cover the vertical base member 37, and a first closing member 71 arranged between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 to fill the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38.

[0066] As a result, the first closing member 71 fills the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, thereby suppressing rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. In addition, because the first closing member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the sound produced when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger is lowered, creating a sense of solidity and providing a sense of luxury.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first closing member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 while having an elastic repulsive force. As a result, the first closing member 71 can press the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 by the elastic repulsive force, so that rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 can be further suppressed.

[0068] In this embodiment, the vertical base member 37 has a base member side engaging portion 371b, the vertical cover member 38 has a cover member side engaging portion 382b that engages with the base member side engaging portion 371b, and the first closing member 71 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 with the base member side engaging portion 371b engaged with the cover member side engaging portion 382b. This allows the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 to be fixed by engagement with each other, while the first closing member 71 can suppress rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38.

[0069] In addition, in this embodiment, the vertical base member 37 has a glass groove frame 371 that is U-shaped in cross section in which the end of the glass 36 in the facing direction is positioned and is open on the glass 36 side, a pair of extending plate portions 372 that extend outward in both facing directions from both ends of the open side of the U-shape of the glass groove frame 371, and a pair of protruding plates 382a that protrude outward in the facing direction from both outer ends of the extending plate portion 372 in the facing direction. The vertical cover member 38 has a prospective direction extending plate 381 arranged on the outside of the prospective direction of the vertical base member 37 and extending in the prospective direction, a pair of protruding plates 382a formed protruding from the prospective direction extending plate 381 toward the vertical base member 37, arranged along the outer surface of the glass groove frame 371 in the prospective direction, and engaged with the outer surface of the glass groove frame 371 in the prospective direction, and a vertical direction extending plate 383 protruding from both ends on the outside of the prospective direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381 toward the vertical base member 37. The first blocking member 71 is arranged between the outer surface 371c of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 in the prospective direction and the inner surface 381a of the prospective direction extending plate 381 of the vertical cover member 38. This can suppress rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. In addition, by disposing the first blocking member 71 between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the sound produced when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger is lowered, creating a sense of solidity and giving a sense of luxury.

[0070] Next, a second embodiment to a sixth embodiment will be described. In the second embodiment to the sixth embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted.

[0071] The second embodiment will be described below. The second embodiment is mainly different from the first embodiment in that, as shown in Fig. 9, the second embodiment includes a pair of second closing members 72 (closing members) in addition to the first closing member 71 (closing member) of the first embodiment.

[0072] As shown in FIG. 9, in the second embodiment, a first blocking member 71 and a pair of second blocking members 72 are arranged between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 so as to fill the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38.

[0073] As in the first embodiment, the first blocking member 71 is arranged between the outer left-right surface 371c of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 and the inner surface 381a on the central side of the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal direction extending plate 381 of the vertical cover member 38.

[0074] The pair of second blocking members 72 are disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 on both outer sides in the prospective direction with respect to the first blocking member 71 of the first embodiment. The pair of second blocking members 72 are disposed between the outer surfaces 372a in the left-right direction of each of the pair of extending plate portions 372 of the vertical base member 37 and the pair of prospective direction outer inner surfaces 381b on the inner side in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending plate 381 of the vertical cover member 38. The prospective direction outer inner surface 381b is a surface formed on the inner side in the left-right direction on the outer side of the prospective direction in the range between the protruding plate 382a and the vertical extending plate 383 in the prospective direction extending plate 381, and is a surface facing the inner side in the left-right direction.

[0075] As with the first closing member 71 described in the first embodiment, for example, a cushioning material having elastic resilience and cushioning properties is used as the second closing member 72. The cushioning material may be, for example, an airtight material.

[0076] In the second embodiment, when the first blocking member 71 and the second blocking member 72 are disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37 in a state in which the first blocking member 71 is attached to the outer surface 371c in the left-right direction of the glass groove frame 371 of the vertical base member 37 and the second blocking member 72 is attached to a pair of outer inner surfaces 381b in the prospective direction of the prospective direction extension plate 381 of the vertical cover member 38, as shown in Fig. 9. When the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, the cover member side engaging portion 382b of the vertical cover member 38 is engaged with the base member side engaging portion 371b of the vertical base member 37, and the first blocking member 71 and the pair of second blocking members 72 are disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 in a state in which they are crushed and have an elastic repulsive force.

[0077] According to the second embodiment, in addition to the first closing member 71 of the first embodiment, the second closing member 72 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 so as to fill the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. Therefore, rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 can be further suppressed. Also, since the first closing member 71 and the second closing member 72 are disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the sound when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger becomes lower, creating a sense of solidity and providing a sense of luxury.

[0078] Next, a third embodiment will be described. As shown in Fig. 10, the third embodiment is mainly different from the second embodiment in that, while the second embodiment shown in Fig. 9 includes a first closing member 71 and a pair of second closing members 72, the third embodiment does not include a first closing member 71 and only includes a pair of second closing members 72 (closing members).

[0079] As shown in Fig. 10, in the third embodiment, a pair of second blocking members 72 are arranged between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 so as to fill the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. In the third embodiment, the first blocking member 71 of the second embodiment shown in Fig. 9 is not provided. As shown in Fig. 10, the pair of second blocking members 72 are respectively arranged between the outer surfaces 372a in the left-right direction of each of the pair of extending plate portions 372 of the vertical base member 37 and the pair of outer inner surfaces 381b in the left-right direction on the inner side of the extending plate 381 in the left-right direction of the extending plate 381 in the left-right direction of the vertical cover member 38.

[0080] According to the third embodiment, the second closing member 72 fills the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, thereby suppressing rattling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. In addition, since the second closing member 72 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the sound produced when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger is lowered, creating a sense of solidity and providing a sense of luxury.

[0081] Next, a fourth embodiment will be described. The fourth embodiment is mainly different from the first embodiment in that, instead of the first closing member 71 of the first embodiment shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, a third closing member 73 (closing member) is provided as shown in Fig. 11.

[0082] As shown in Fig. 11, in the fourth embodiment, the third blocking member 73 is disposed at the same position as the first blocking member 71 in the first embodiment. The third blocking member 73 is made of a soft resin plate. The soft resin plate is formed into a plate shape having a small elastic repulsive force or no elastic repulsive force. The third blocking member 73 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 in a state in which it has a small elastic repulsive force or no elastic repulsive force.

[0083] In the fourth embodiment, when the third blocking member 73 is placed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 and the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, it can be attached using the same attachment method as in the first embodiment.

[0084] According to the fourth embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the third closing member 73 fills the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, thereby suppressing wobbling between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38. In addition, since the third closing member 73 is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38, the sound produced when the vertical frames 33, 34 are tapped with a finger is lowered, creating a sense of solidity and providing a sense of luxury.

[0085] Next, a fifth embodiment will be described. The fifth embodiment is mainly different from the first embodiment in that, instead of the first closing member 71 of the first embodiment shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, a fourth closing member 74 (closing member) is provided as shown in Fig. 12.

[0086] As shown in Fig. 12, in the fifth embodiment, the fourth closing member 74 is disposed in the same position as the first closing member 71 in the first embodiment. The fourth closing member 74 is made of a resin packing. The resin packing is formed so that the tip side on the vertical cover member 38 side is rounded and protrudes. The resin packing is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 in a state in which it has an elastic repulsive force.

[0087] In the fifth embodiment, when the fourth blocking member 74 is placed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 and the vertical cover member 38 is attached to the vertical base member 37, it can be attached using the same attachment method as in the first embodiment.

[0088] According to the fifth embodiment, in addition to being able to achieve the same effects as the first embodiment, the tip side of the fourth blocking member 74 is formed to be rounded and protruding, making it easier to crush the fourth blocking member 74 and to fill the gap between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38.

[0089] Next, a sixth embodiment will be described. The sixth embodiment is mainly different from the fifth embodiment in that, instead of the fourth closing member 74 of the fifth embodiment shown in Fig. 12, a fifth closing member 75 (closing member) is provided as shown in Fig. 13.

[0090] 13, in the sixth embodiment, the fifth closing member 75 is disposed at the same position as the fourth closing member 74 in the fifth embodiment. The fourth closing member 74 is made of a resin packing with one end side open in the circumferential direction. The resin packing with one end side open is disposed between the vertical base member 37 and the vertical cover member 38 in a state in which it has an elastic repulsive force.

[0091] According to the sixth embodiment, it is possible to achieve the same effects as the fifth embodiment.

[0092] The present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and modifications, improvements, etc. within the scope that can achieve the object of the present disclosure are included in the present disclosure.

[0093] For example, in the above embodiment, the panel body is configured as a "sliding door." However, this is not limited to this. The panel body may be configured to be movable, or may be configured as a fixed, immovable structure. When the panel body is configured as a fixed, immovable structure, it may be configured as, for example, a "partition panel" that divides an indoor space into two spaces.

[0094] In the above embodiment, the case where the frame is applied to the vertical frame has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. The frame may be applied to the horizontal frame (upper frame, lower frame).

[0095] In the above embodiment, when the blocking member is disposed between the base member and the cover member that constitute the frame, the blocking member is attached to one of the base member and the cover member in advance, and the cover member is attached to the base member. However, the member to which the blocking member is attached in advance is not limited to the above embodiment, and may be the other member opposite to the one of the base member and the cover member in the above embodiment. Also, the blocking member may be disposed between the base member and the cover member without being attached to either the base member or the cover member. [Explanation of symbols]
