A door wheel 46 that rolls on the indoor side rail 222 of the lower frame 22 is provided on the lower frame 42 of the inner shutter 4.

[0021] As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the upper frame 31, the lower frame 32, the vertical frame 33, and the outer joining frame 34 of the outer shutter 3 each have a composite structure in which resin frame materials 312, 322, 332, and 342 are attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame materials 311, 321, 331, and 341. The upper frame 41, the lower frame 42, the vertical frame 43, and the inner joining frame 44 of the inner shutter 4 each have a composite structure in which resin frame materials 412, 422, 432, and 442 are attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame materials 411, 421, 431, and 441. As a result, the outer shutter 3 and the inner shutter 4 have excellent heat insulation and dew prevention properties.

[0022] Next, the structure in which the anti-sway member 8 (mounting component) is attached to the vertical frame 33 of the outer shutter 3 will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the anti-sway member 8 is attached to a predetermined position in the vertical direction of the vertical frame 33 disposed on the door tip side of the outer shutter 3. Here, the metal frame member 331 and the resin frame member 332 of the vertical frame 33 of the outer shutter 3 will be further described in detail with reference to FIG. 4.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 4, the vertical frame 33 is configured by combining a metal frame member 331 and a resin frame member 332.

[0024] The metal frame member 331 has a mounting component receiving frame 331a (receiving portion, component mounting portion) that opens outward in the left-right direction, and an outdoor-side inner left-right extending portion 331k that extends inward in the left-right direction from the portion of the mounting component receiving frame 331a on the outdoor side X1. The mounting component receiving frame 331a is formed in a U shape that opens outward in the left-right direction. The anti-sway member 8 is received and disposed in the mounting component receiving frame 331a.

[0025] The mounting component receiving frame 331a has a prospective direction extending portion 331b formed on the closed side of the U shape, an outdoor-side left-right extending portion 331c, and an indoor-side left-right extending portion 331g.

[0026] An airtight material mounting groove frame 331e that opens in a C shape toward the indoor side X2 is provided on the indoor-side X2 surface of the outer end portion in the left-right direction of the outdoor-side left-right extending portion 331c. An airtight material 331f is attached to the airtight material mounting groove frame 331e.

[0027] An upward locking projection 331h that protrudes toward the outdoor side X1 is formed at the outer end portion in the left-right direction of the indoor-side left-right extending portion 331g. A downward locking piece 331i that protrudes toward the indoor side X2 is formed at a position slightly inside the outer end portion in the left-right direction of the indoor-side left-right extending portion 331g. An L-shaped locking piece 331j that protrudes toward the indoor side X2 and opens inward in the left-right direction is formed in the middle of the indoor-side left-right extending portion 331g in the left-right direction.

[0028] At the inner end in the left - right direction of the left - right extending portion 331k on the outdoor side and the inner side, a protrusion 331d protruding toward the indoor side X2 is provided. The protrusion 331d engages with the outdoor - side X1 portion of the grating channel 351 that holds the left - right ends of the facing material 35. The grating channel 351 is a resin packing having a substantially U - shaped cross - section for holding the facing material 35.

[0029] The resin frame member 332 is attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame member 331. The resin frame member 332 has a hollow portion 332a, an indoor - side left - right extending portion 332b extending inward in the left - right direction from the end of the hollow portion 332a on the indoor side X2, an L - shaped locking piece 332e protruding toward the outdoor side X1 and opening outward in the left - right direction from the inner end in the left - right direction of the hollow portion 332a on the outdoor side X1, and a hook - shaped portion 332f protruding toward the outdoor side X1 from the outer end in the left - right direction of the hollow portion 332a. The tip of the hook - shaped portion 332f is bent inward in the left - right direction and formed in a C - shaped form that opens toward the indoor side X2.

[0030] At the inner end in the left - right direction of the indoor - side left - right extending portion 332b, a protrusion 332c protruding toward the outdoor side X1 from the inner end in the left - right direction of the indoor - side left - right extending portion 332b and a protruding portion 332d protruding by bending toward the indoor side X2 from the inner end in the left - right direction of the indoor - side left - right extending portion 332b are formed. The protrusion 332c of the indoor - side left - right extending portion 332b engages with the indoor - side X2 portion of the grating channel 351 that holds the left - right ends of the facing material 35. The protruding portion 332d is a portion that serves as a handle when opening and closing the outer shutter 3.

[0031] The metal frame member 331 and the resin frame member 332 are combined by locking the L - shaped locking piece 331j of the metal frame member 331 and the L - shaped locking piece 332e of the resin frame member 332, and locking the upper locking protrusion 331h of the metal frame member 331 and the hook - shaped portion 332f of the resin frame member 332.

[0032] In the vertical frame 33 in which the metal frame member 331 and the resin frame member 332 are combined, on the inner side in the left - right direction of the vertical frame 33, a facing - material swallowing portion 330 for arranging the left - right ends of the facing material 35 is formed.

[0033] In the vertical frame 33 in which the metal frame member 331 and the resin frame member 332 are combined, a shake-preventing member 8 is disposed in a mounting component recessed frame 331a formed on the outer side in the left-right direction of the vertical frame 33.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 4, the shake-preventing member 8 has a rectangular parallelepiped-shaped base portion 81 that is long in the prospective direction, and a bulging portion 82 that protrudes outward in the left-right direction from the outer surfaces on the left and right sides of the base portion 81 in the left-right direction. The base portion 81 has a left-right direction inner prospective direction extending surface 811 formed on the inner side in the left-right direction, a left-right direction outer prospective direction extending surface 812 formed on the outer side in the left-right direction, an outdoor side left-right direction extending surface 813 formed on the outdoor side X1, an indoor side left-right direction extending surface 814 formed on the indoor side X2, and a stepped corner portion 815 that is recessed in an L shape at the corner of the outdoor side X1 formed on the outer side in the left-right direction. The bulging portion 82 bulges outward in the left-right direction from a position closer to the indoor side X2 in the prospective direction on the left-right direction outer surface of the base portion 81.

[0035] The shake-preventing member 8 is formed of, for example, an elastically deformable resin material. When the vertical frame 33 is pressed against the vertical frame 23 of the frame body 2 on the outer side in the left-right direction with the outer shutter 3 attached to the frame body 2, the shake-preventing member 8 is elastically deformed to prevent the outer shutter 3 from shaking.

[0036] In a state where the shake-preventing member 8 is attached to the mounting component recessed frame 331a, the left-right direction inner prospective direction extending surface 811 of the base portion 81 of the shake-preventing member 8 abuts against and is disposed on the prospective surface 33a on the outer side in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending portion 331b of the mounting component recessed frame 331a of the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33, and also abuts against and is disposed on the outdoor side X1 finding surface 33b of the indoor side left-right direction extending portion 331g of the mounting component recessed frame 331a of the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33.

[0037] Further, the surface on the end side on the indoor side X2 of the surface extending in the expected direction on the outer side in the left-right direction of the base portion 81 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to face in proximity to or in contact with the expected surface 33c on the inner side in the left-right direction of the hook-shaped portion 332f of the resin frame member 332. The outdoor side left-right direction extending surface 813 of the base portion 81 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to face in proximity to or in contact with the found surface 33d on the indoor side X2 of the outdoor side left-right direction extending portion 331c of the metal frame member 331. The stepped corner portion 815 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to face in proximity to or in contact with the corner portion 33e on the inner side in the left-right direction of the airtight material mounting groove frame 331e of the metal frame member 331.

[0038] As described above, in the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33, the anti-vibration member 8 (mounting part) is mounted at a predetermined position in the vertical direction on the mounting part housing frame 331a including the expected surface 33a of the expected direction extending portion 331b of the mounting part housing frame 331a of the metal frame member 331.

[0039] The anti-vibration member 8 abuts against the expected surface 33a which is an abutting surface formed on the outer side in the left-right direction of the expected direction extending portion 331b of the mounting part housing frame 331a in a state of being mounted on the mounting part housing frame 331a. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 abuts against the found surface 33b on the outdoor side X1 of the indoor side left-right direction extending portion 331g of the mounting part housing frame 331a. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 is in proximity to or in contact with the expected surface 33c on the inner side in the left-right direction of the hook-shaped portion 332f of the resin frame member 332. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 is in contact with or in proximity to the found surface 33d on the outdoor side X1 of the indoor side left-right direction extending portion 331g of the mounting part housing frame 331a of the metal frame member 331. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to be in contact with or in proximity to the corner portion 33e on the inner side in the left-right direction of the airtight material mounting groove frame 331e of the metal frame member 331.

[0040] Note that the shape of the vertical frame 33 of the outer shutter 3 is the same as that of the vertical frame 43 of the inner shutter 4, except that the vertical frame 43 of the inner shutter 4 does not have a member corresponding to the protruding portion 332d (see Fig. 4) of the resin frame material 332 of the vertical frame 33 of the outer shutter 3, and the vertical frame 33 of the outer shutter 3 and the vertical frame 43 of the inner shutter 4 are opposite in direction and symmetric in shape because they are both door end frames. Therefore, the description of the shape of the vertical frame 43 of the inner shutter 4 can refer to the description of the shape of the vertical frame 33 of the outer shutter 3. For example, a vibration damping member 8 is attached to a predetermined position in the vertical direction of the vertical frame 43 disposed on the door end side of the inner shutter 4.

[0041] Here, there may be a case where the vibration damping member 8 used for one sliding window 1 is to be made common with the vibration damping member 8 used for another sliding window 1A. Conventionally, in a plurality of shutters with different widths in the expected direction of the frame, the selected plurality of shutters had different shapes at the portions where the vibration damping members were attached. Therefore, when the widths in the expected direction of the frame were different for each of the plurality of types of shutters, dedicated designs were made for the vibration damping members respectively.

[0042] Here, a case where the vibration damping member 8 used for one sliding window 1 is made common with the vibration damping member 8 used for another sliding window 1A will be described. Another sliding window 1A has a different width in the expected direction compared to one sliding window 1.

[0043] Another sliding window 1A will be described. In the description of another sliding window 1A, the description of one sliding window 1 can be referred to for the parts not described.

[0044] As shown in Fig. 5, another sliding window 1A is composed of a frame body 2A attached to an opening of a building body (not shown), two shutters including an outer shutter 6 disposed on the outdoor side X1 and an inner shutter 7 disposed on the indoor side X2 inside the frame body 2A, and one screen door 5A disposed on the outdoor side X1 of the outer shutter 6.

[0045] The outer shutter 6 and the inner shutter 7 of the other sliding window 1A are smaller in the width in the prospective direction than the outer shutter 3 and the inner shutter 4 of the aforementioned one sliding window 1.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 5, the outer shutter 6 is configured by accommodating a face material 65 made of two sheets of glass inside a frame body 60 formed by rectangularly framing an upper frame (not shown), a lower frame (not shown), a vertical frame 63 disposed on the leading side of the door, and an outer mating frame 64 which is a vertical frame disposed on the trailing side of the door. The frame body 60 of the outer shutter 6 of the other sliding window 1A and the frame body 30 of the outer shutter 3 of the aforementioned one sliding window 1 have different prospective widths.

[0047] The inner shutter 7 is configured by accommodating a face material 75 made of two sheets of glass inside a frame body 70 formed by rectangularly framing an upper frame (not shown), a lower frame (not shown), a vertical frame 73 disposed on the leading side of the door, and an inner mating frame 74 disposed on the trailing side of the door. The frame body 70 of the inner shutter 7 of the other sliding window 1A and the frame body 40 of the inner shutter 4 of the aforementioned one sliding window 1 have different prospective widths.

[0048] As shown in FIG. 5, the vertical frame 63 and the outer mating frame 64 of the outer shutter 6 each have a composite structure in which resin frame materials 632 and 642 are attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame materials 631 and 641. The vertical frame 73 and the inner mating frame 74 of the inner shutter 7 each have a composite structure in which resin frame materials 732 and 742 are attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame materials 731 and 741. Thereby, the outer shutter 6 and the inner shutter 7 are excellent in heat insulation and dew prevention properties.

[0049] Next, in the other sliding window 1A, a structure in which a shock absorber member 8 (mounting part) is attached to the outer shutter 6 and the inner shutter 7 will be described. Note that the shock absorber member 8 has the same shape whether it is attached to the vertical frame 33 of the one sliding window 1 or to the other sliding window 1A, and can be made common.

[0050] The shock absorber member 8 is attached to a predetermined position in the vertical direction of the vertical frame 63 of the outer shutter 6. Here, the metal frame material 631 and the resin frame material 632 of the vertical frame 63 of the outer shutter 6 will be further described in detail with reference to FIG. 6.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 6, the vertical frame 63 is composed of a combination of a metal frame member 631 and a resin frame member 632.

[0052] The metal frame member 631 has a suction frame 631a (suction part, component mounting part) that opens outward in the left - right direction, and an outdoor - side inner - side left - right extending part 631j that extends inward in the left - right direction from a part of the outdoor - side X1 of the suction frame 631a. The suction frame 631a is formed in a U - shape that opens outward in the left - right direction. A vibration - damping member 8 is attached to the suction frame 631a.

[0053] The suction frame 631a has a prospective - direction extending part 631b formed on the closed - side of the U - shape, an outdoor - side left - right extending part 631c, and an indoor - side left - right extending part 631g.

[0054] On the indoor - side X2 surface of the outer - end part in the left - right direction of the outdoor - side left - right extending part 631c, an air - tight material mounting groove frame 631e that opens in a C - shape toward the indoor - side X2 is provided. An air - tight material 631f is attached to the air - tight material mounting groove frame 631e.

[0055] At the outer - end part in the left - right direction of the indoor - side left - right extending part 631g, an upward locking projection 631h that protrudes toward the outdoor - side X1 is formed. Inside the indoor - side left - right extending part 631g in the left - right direction, an L - shaped locking piece 631i that protrudes toward the indoor - side X2 and opens inward and outward in the left - right direction and toward the outdoor - side X1 is formed.

[0056] At the inner - end part in the left - right direction of the outdoor - side inner - side left - right extending part 631j, a projection 631d that protrudes toward the indoor - side X2 is provided. The projection 631d engages with the outdoor - side X1 part of a grating channel 651 that holds the left - right ends of the facing material 65. The grating channel 651 is a resin - made packing with a substantially U - shaped cross - section for holding the facing material 65.

[0057] The resin frame member 632 is attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame member 631. The resin frame member 632 has a horizontally extending portion 632a, an L-shaped locking piece 632b that bends toward the outdoor side X1 from the middle in the horizontal direction of the horizontally extending portion 632a and opens to the outside in the horizontal direction, a protrusion 632e that protrudes toward the outdoor side X1 from the middle in the horizontal direction of the horizontally extending portion 632a on the outside in the horizontal direction of the L-shaped locking piece 632b, a hook-shaped portion 632f that protrudes toward the outdoor side X1 from the outer end in the horizontal direction of the horizontally extending portion 632a, and a protrusion 632g that protrudes toward the outdoor side X1 from the surface on the outdoor side X1 outside the hook-shaped portion 632f in the horizontal direction. The tip of the hook-shaped portion 632f is formed in a C shape that bends inward in the horizontal direction and opens to the indoor side X2.

[0058] At the inner end in the horizontal direction of the horizontally extending portion 632a, a protrusion 632c that protrudes toward the outdoor side X1 from the inner end in the horizontal direction of the horizontally extending portion 632a and a protruding portion 632d that bends and protrudes toward the indoor side X2 from the inner end in the horizontal direction of the horizontally extending portion 632a are formed. The protrusion 632c engages with the indoor side X2 portion of the grating channel 651 that holds the horizontal ends of the facing material 65.

[0059] The metal frame member 631 and the resin frame member 632 are combined by locking the L-shaped locking piece 631i of the metal frame member 631 and the L-shaped locking piece 632b of the resin frame member 632, and locking the upper locking protrusion 631h of the metal frame member 631 and the hook-shaped portion 632f of the resin frame member 632.

[0060] In the vertical frame 63 formed by combining the metal frame member 631 and the resin frame member 332, a facing material swallowing portion 630 where the horizontal ends of the facing material 65 are arranged is formed inside the vertical frame 63 in the horizontal direction.

[0061] In the vertical frame 63 formed by combining the metal frame member 631 and the resin frame member 632, a mounting component swallowing frame 631a formed outside the vertical frame 63 in the horizontal direction is provided with an anti-vibration member 8.

[0062] The anti-vibration member 8 is formed in the same shape as the anti-vibration member 8 of one of the sliding windows 1. In a state where the anti-vibration member 8 is attached to the mounting part housing frame 631a, the expected direction extending surface 811 in the inner side in the left-right direction of the base part 81 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged in contact with the expected surface 63a on the outer side in the left-right direction of the expected direction extending part 631b of the mounting part housing frame 631a of the metal frame material 631 of the vertical frame 63, and is also arranged in contact with the found surface 63b on the outdoor side X1 of the indoor side left-right direction extending part 631g of the mounting part housing frame 631a of the metal frame material 631 of the vertical frame 63.

[0063] Also, the surface on the end side on the indoor side X2 of the expected direction extending surface 812 on the outer side in the left-right direction of the base part 81 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to face in proximity or in contact with the expected surface 63c on the inner side in the left-right direction of the hook-shaped part 632f of the resin frame material 632. The outdoor side left-right direction extending surface 813 of the base part 81 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to face in proximity or in contact with the found surface 63d on the indoor side X2 of the outdoor side left-right direction extending part 631c of the metal frame material 631. The stepped corner part 815 of the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to face in proximity or in contact with the corner part 63e on the inner side in the left-right direction of the airtight material mounting groove frame 631e of the metal frame material 631.

[0064] As described above, in the metal frame material 631 of the vertical frame 63, the anti-vibration member 8 (mounting part) is attached to the mounting part housing frame 631a including the expected surface 63a of the expected direction extending part 631b of the mounting part housing frame 631a of the metal frame material 631 at a predetermined position in the up-down direction.

[0065] The anti-vibration member 8 abuts against the prospective surface 63a, which is an abutting surface formed on the outer side in the left-right direction of the prospective direction extending portion 631b of the mounting part swallowing frame 631a, in a state of being attached to the mounting part swallowing frame 631a. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 abuts against the finding surface 63b on the outdoor side X1 of the indoor side left-right direction extending portion 631g of the mounting part swallowing frame 631a. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 approaches or abuts against the prospective surface 63c on the inner side in the left-right direction of the hook-shaped portion 632f of the resin frame member 632. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 abuts against or approaches the finding surface 63d on the outdoor side X1 of the indoor side left-right direction extending portion 631g of the mounting part swallowing frame 631a of the metal frame member 631. Further, the anti-vibration member 8 is arranged to abut against or approach the corner portion 63e on the inner side in the left-right direction of the airtight material mounting groove frame 631e of the metal frame member 631.

[0066] Note that the shape of the vertical frame 63 of the outer sash 6 is the same as the shape of the vertical frame 73 of the inner sash 7, except that the vertical frame 73 of the inner sash 7 does not have a member corresponding to the protruding portion 632d (see FIG. 6) of the resin frame member 632 of the vertical frame 63 of the outer sash 6, and the vertical frame 63 of the outer sash 6 and the vertical frame 73 of the inner sash 7 are opposite in direction and symmetric in shape because they are both door edge frames. Therefore, the description of the shape of the vertical frame 73 of the inner sash 7 can be applied to the description of the shape of the vertical frame 63 of the outer sash 6. For example, the anti-vibration member 8 is attached to a predetermined position in the vertical direction of the vertical frame 73 of the inner sash 7.

[0067] Here, the mounting part swallowing frame 331a (see FIG. 4) to which the anti-vibration member 8 attached to the vertical frame 33 of one sliding window 1 is attached and the mounting part swallowing frame 631a (see FIG. 6) to which the anti-vibration member 8 attached to the vertical frame 63 of the other sliding window 1A are attached have the same shape, although the widths in the prospective direction of the respective vertical frames 33 and 63 are different.

[0068] Specifically, the prospective surfaces 33a, the found surfaces 33b, the prospective surfaces 33c, the found surfaces 33d, and the corner portions 33e (see FIG. 4) of the fitting part recessed frame 331a of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1, and the prospective surfaces 63a, the found surfaces 63b, the prospective surfaces 63c, the found surfaces 63d, and the corner portions 63e (see FIG. 6) of the fitting part recessed frame 631a of the vertical frame 63 in the other sliding window 1A have the same shape.

[0069] Specifically, each dimension of the fitting part recessed frame 331a (see FIG. 4) of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1 is the same as each dimension of the fitting part recessed frame 631a (see FIG. 6) of the vertical frame 63 in the other sliding window 1A. For example, when comparing FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, the length L11 in the prospective direction (indoor-outdoor direction) of the prospective surface 33a of the fitting part recessed frame 331a of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1 is the same as the length L21 in the prospective direction of the prospective surface 63a of the fitting part recessed frame 631a of the vertical frame 63 in the other sliding window 1A (L11 = L21). The length L12 in the left-right direction (found direction) of the found surface 33b of the fitting part recessed frame 331a of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1 is the same as the length L22 in the left-right direction (found direction) of the found surface 63b of the fitting part recessed frame 631a of the vertical frame 63 in the other sliding window 1A (L12 = L22). The length L13 in the left-right direction (found direction) from the prospective surface 33a to the prospective surface 33c of the fitting part recessed frame 331a of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1 is the same as the length L23 in the left-right direction (found direction) from the prospective surface 63a to the prospective surface 63c of the fitting part recessed frame 631a of the vertical frame 63 in the other sliding window 1A (L13 = L23).

[0070] Therefore, anti-sway members 8 having the same shape can be used and made common for attachment to the fitting part recessed frames 331a and 631a. That is, the anti-sway member 8 can be a common part in which the shape of the portion attached to the fitting part recessed frames 331a and 631a is formed in the same shape regardless of which vertical frames 33 and 63 of the exterior shutters 3 and 6 selected from among a plurality of types of exterior shutters 3 and 6 it is attached to.

[0071] According to the present embodiment, the following effects are achieved. The exterior shutters 3, 6 of the present embodiment are shutters 3, 6 selected from a plurality of types of exterior shutters 3, 6 having different expected widths of the vertical frames 33, 63. All of the plurality of types of exterior shutters 3, 6 have a vertical frame 33, 63 and a face material 35, 65 disposed inside the vertical frame 33, 63. The vertical frames 33, 63 of the plurality of types of shutters 3, 6 all have a mounting part recessed frame 331a, 631a having an expected surface 33a, 63a where the anti-sway member 8 is abutted and mounted. The shape of the mounting part recessed frame 331a, 631a is formed in the same shape in any of the vertical frames 33, 63 of the plurality of types of exterior shutters 3, 6. Thereby, even for exterior shutters 3, 6 having different expected widths, the anti-sway member 8 can be made common, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0072] Also, in the present embodiment, the mounting part recessed frame 331a, 631a is constituted by a recessed part that is formed to open outward in the finding direction and in which the anti-sway member 8 is recessed and disposed. Thereby, by making the shape of the part of the mounting part recessed frame 331a, 631a for mounting the anti-sway member 8 the same shape, the anti-sway member 8 can be easily made common.

[0073] Also, in the present embodiment, the anti-sway member 8 is a common part in which the shape of the part to be mounted on the mounting part recessed frame 331a, 631a is formed in the same shape regardless of which vertical frame 33, 63 of the exterior shutter 3, 6 selected from the plurality of types of exterior shutters 3, 6 it is mounted on. Thereby, even for exterior shutters 3, 6 having different expected widths, the anti-sway member 8 can be made a common part, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0074] In addition, in the present embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the mounting component embedding frame 331a (see FIG. 4) of the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1 is formed to have the same shape as the cross-sectional shape of the mounting component embedding frame 631a (see FIG. 6) of the metal frame member 631 of the vertical frame 63 in another sliding window 1A. However, the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33 in one sliding window 1 and the metal frame member 631 of the vertical frame 63 in another sliding window 1A are different in the detailed shape when looking at the overall cross-sectional shape.

[0075] However, it is not limited to this. The cross-sectional shapes of the metal frame member 331 (component mounting frame member) of the vertical frame 33 of the outer sash 3 of the sliding window 1 shown in FIG. 4 and the metal frame member 931 (component mounting frame member) of the vertical frame 93 of another sash 9 with a different projected width shown in FIG. 7 may be formed into the same shape and made common.

[0076] For example, another sash 9 with a different projected width from the outer sash 3 (see FIG. 4) of one sliding window 1 will be described. As shown in FIG. 7, the thickness of the face material 95 of another sash 9 is formed to be thinner than the thickness of the face material 35 of the outer sash 3 (see FIG. 4) of one sliding window 1, and the projected width is smaller than that of the outer sash 3 (see FIG. 4) of one sliding window 1.

[0077] As shown in FIG. 7, another sash 9 has a composite structure in which a resin frame member 932 is attached to the indoor side X2 of the metal frame member 931. Here, the cross-sectional shape of the metal frame member 931 of the vertical frame 93 of another sash 9 (see FIG. 7) is the same as the cross-sectional shape of the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33 of one sliding window 1 (see FIG. 4). The metal frame member 931 of the vertical frame 93 has a mounting component embedding frame 931a (component mounting part) with the same cross-sectional shape as the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33 of the outer sash 3 (see FIG. 4) of one sliding window 1. Thereby, both the metal frame member 931 of the vertical frame 93 and the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33 (see FIG. 4) are composed of single-shaped members including mounting component embedding frames 331a, 31a with the same cross-sectional shape.

[0078] Further, the resin frame member 932 of the vertical frame 93 has a protrusion 932c that is longer in the prospective direction than the protrusion 332c of the resin frame member 332 of the vertical frame 33 of the single sliding window 1. The protrusion 932c of the resin frame member 932 engages with the indoor side X2 portion of the grating channel 951 that holds the left and right ends of the facing material 95. By adjusting the length of the protrusion 932c of the resin frame member 932, it is possible to accommodate the shoji 9 with a narrow prospective width even as a member having the same cross-sectional shape in which the metal frame member 931 of the vertical frame 93 and the metal frame member 331 of the vertical frame 33 are made common.

[0079] As described above, the metal frame member 931 (component mounting frame member) of the vertical frame 93 of another shoji 9 configured as described above can be made common with the metal frame member 331 (component mounting frame member) of the vertical frame 33 of the outer shoji 3 (see FIG. 4) of the single sliding window 1. Thereby, further reduction of manufacturing cost can be achieved.

[0080] Although the preferred embodiment of the present disclosure has been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiment and can be appropriately changed.

[0081] For example, in the above embodiment, in the shoji selected from among a plurality of types of shoji, the shape of the component mounting portion of the vertical frame is formed in the same shape, but the present disclosure is not limited to this. The shape of the component mounting portion of the horizontal frame may be formed in the same shape.

[0082] In the above embodiment, the mounting component is constituted by the anti-sway member 8, but the present disclosure is not limited to this. The mounting component may be constituted by, for example, a door wheel. In this case, even in shoji with different prospective widths of the frames, the door wheels can be made common components having the same shape of the mounting portion.
