Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to building materials. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, a fitting including a frame body and a shoji screen placed inside the frame body has been known (see, for example, Patent Document 1). The shoji screen has a frame body with a stile and a surface material placed inside the frame body. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-109090 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] When a shoji screen is closed and wind pressure is applied to the frame and the stile, the stile can twist and not be able to withstand the wind pressure. In this case, the shoji screen can come off the frame, or the surface material can come off the shoji screen. For this reason, in the past, wind pressure resistance was improved by thickening or reinforcing the stile. However, thickening or reinforcing the stile increases manufacturing costs. Therefore, there is a need for a simple structure that can prevent twisting of the stile due to wind pressure and improve the wind pressure resistance of shoji screens.

[0005] The present disclosure aims to provide a fitting that can improve the wind pressure resistance strength of a shoji screen with a simple configuration. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The present disclosure relates to a fixture comprising a frame body and a shoji screen arranged within the frame body and movable laterally, the shoji screen having a frame body with a stile, a panel arranged within the frame body, and a gap-filling member arranged between the end face of the panel and a panel-retaining groove of the stile.

[0018] As shown in Figure 3, the vertical frame 24 arranged on the door edge side of the inner shoji screen 4 has a composite structure in which a resin cover material 242 is attached to the inner surface of a metal frame body 241, which is the frame body main body. Therefore, it has excellent heat insulation and moisture prevention properties. The resin cover material 242 is arranged on the inner surface of the vertical frame 24, closer to the room side X2 than the inner shoji screen 4 when it is closed. The resin cover material 242 has an angle portion 2421 that protrudes toward the room side X2 beyond the room side end portion 241a of the metal frame body 241. The resin cover material 242 is provided over the entire length of the vertical frame 24 in the extension direction.

[0019] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the outer shoji screen 3 is constructed by fitting a panel 35 made of three pieces of glass inside a rectangular frame body 30 consisting of an upper frame 31, a lower frame 32, a vertical frame 33 (frame) located on the door tip side, and an outer joining frame 34, which is a vertical frame located on the door tail side. The outer shoji screen 3 is engaged with the outdoor rails 211, 221 of the upper frame 21 and the lower frame 22 so that it can move left and right. The lower frame 32 of the outer shoji screen 3 is provided with a door roller 36 that rolls on the outdoor rail 221 of the lower frame 22.

[0020] The inner shoji screen 4 is constructed by fitting a panel 45 made of three pieces of glass inside a rectangular frame body 40 consisting of an upper frame 41, a lower frame 42, a vertical frame 43 located at the door tip, and an inner joining frame 44 located at the door tail. The inner shoji screen 4 is engaged with the interior rails 212, 222 of the upper frame 21 and the lower frame 22 so that it can move left and right. The lower frame 42 of the inner shoji screen 4 is provided with a door roller 46 that rolls on the interior rail 222 of the lower frame 22.

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

[0022] In addition to the above-mentioned configuration, the outer shoji screen 3 has two upper anti-sway members 52, two lower anti-sway members 53, an intermediate anti-sway member 6, and a gap closing member 7, as shown in Figure 1. In addition to the above-mentioned configuration, the inner shoji screen 4 has two upper anti-sway members 52, two lower anti-sway members 53, and an intermediate anti-sway member 6.

[0023] As shown in Figure 4, the upper anti-sway member 52 is positioned at the top of the vertical frame 33 on the door edge side of the outer shoji screen 3, the top of the outer meeting frame 34 of the outer shoji screen 3, the top of the vertical frame 43 on the door edge side of the inner shoji screen 4, and the top of the inner meeting frame 44.

[0024] The upper anti-sway member 52 is formed to be open upward, as shown in Figure 2. The outdoor rail 211 and the indoor rail 212 are arranged in the open upper part of the upper anti-sway member 52. As a result, the upper anti-sway member 52 restricts the swing of the outer shoji screen 3 and the inner shoji screen 4 in the indoor / outdoor direction at both left and right ends of the upper part of the outer shoji screen 3 and the inner shoji screen 4 when the outer shoji screen 3 and the inner shoji screen 4 slide in the front direction within the frame body 2.

[0025] As shown in Figure 5, the lower anti-sway members 53 are respectively positioned at the lower part of the vertical frame 33 of the outer shoji screen 3, the lower part of the outer joining frame 34 of the outer shoji screen 3, the lower part of the vertical frame 43 of the inner shoji screen 4, and the lower part of the inner joining frame 44.

[0026] The lower anti-sway member 53 is formed to be open downwards, as shown in Figure 5. The outdoor rail 221 and the indoor rail 222 (see Figure 2) are arranged in the open portion of the lower anti-sway member 53. As a result, the lower anti-sway member 53 restricts the swing of the outer shoji screen 3 and the inner shoji screen 4 in the indoor / outdoor direction at both left and right ends of the lower part of the outer shoji screen 3 and the inner shoji screen 4 when the outer shoji screen 3 and the inner shoji screen 4 slide in the front direction within the frame body 2.

[0027] As shown in Figure 1, the intermediate anti-sway member 6 is positioned at the middle part of the vertical frame 33 on the door tip side of the outer shoji screen 3 and at the middle part of the vertical frame 43 on the door tip side of the inner shoji screen 4, respectively.

[0028] As shown in Figure 3, the intermediate anti-sway member 6 is attached to an intermediate anti-sway member attachment groove 331a that is located on the left-right outer side of the vertical frame 33 on the door tip side and opens outward in the left-right direction in the outer shoji 3. Also, the intermediate anti-sway member 6 is attached to an intermediate anti-sway member attachment groove 431a that is located on the left-right outer side of the vertical frame 43 on the door tip side and opens outward in the left-right direction in the inner shoji 4.

[0029] 3, the intermediate anti-vibration member 6 has a rectangular parallelepiped base portion 61 and a bulge portion 62 that protrudes outward in the left-right direction from the outer left-right surface of the base portion 61. The intermediate anti-vibration member 6 is formed, for example, from an elastically deformable semi-hard resin material.

[0030] The intermediate anti-sway member 6 attached to the vertical frame 33 on the door edge side of the outer shoji screen 3 is elastically deformed when the vertical frame 33 is pressed against the vertical frame 23 of the outer frame body 2 in the left-right direction when the outer shoji screen 3 is attached to the frame body 2, thereby preventing the outer shoji screen 3 from swaying. The intermediate anti-sway member 6 attached to the vertical frame 43 on the door edge side of the inner shoji screen 4 is elastically deformed when the vertical frame 43 is pressed against the vertical frame 24 of the outer frame body 2 in the left-right direction when the inner shoji screen 4 is attached to the frame body 2, thereby preventing the inner shoji screen 4 from swaying.

[0031] As shown in Figure 1, the gap closing member 7 is arranged in a position corresponding to the position where the intermediate anti-vibration member 6 of the outer shoji screen 3 is arranged in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33 on the door tip side of the outer shoji screen 3. The gap closing member 7 is formed, for example, from a semi-hard resin material.

[0032] 3, the gap filler 7 has a thickness in the left-right direction of the outer screen 3, and is formed so that its length in the indoor / outdoor direction is approximately the same as the thickness of the face material 35 in the indoor / outdoor direction, and is formed in a block shape with a predetermined length in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33. The length of the block-shaped gap filler 7 in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33 is, for example, one-third or less of the length of the vertical frame 33 in the longitudinal direction.

[0033] The gap sealing member 7 is positioned between the end face 351 of the left and right ends of the panel 35 of the outer shoji screen 3 and the panel retaining groove 331b of the vertical frame 33 on the door tip side of the outer shoji screen 3.

[0034] More specifically, the panel material holding groove 331b of the vertical frame 33 on the door edge side of the outer shoji screen 3 is formed in a U-shape that opens toward the inside in the left-right direction of the vertical frame 33 on the door edge side of the outer shoji screen 3. The panel material holding groove 331b has a panel material facing surface 331c. The panel material facing surface 331c faces the end face 351 of the left-right end of the panel material 35 and is formed facing inward in the left-right direction. The gap closing member 7 is positioned between the end face 351 facing outward in the left-right direction formed on the left-right end of the panel material 35 of the outer shoji screen 3 and the panel material facing surface 331c of the panel material holding groove 331b of the vertical frame 33 on the door edge side of the outer shoji screen 3.

[0035] By placing the gap sealing member 7 between the left and right ends of the surface material 35 and the surface material holding groove 331b of the vertical frame 33 on the door edge side of the outer shoji screen 3, it is possible to suppress rattle between the vertical frame 33 and the surface material 35. This prevents twisting of the vertical frame 33 due to wind pressure when exposed to wind, improving the wind pressure resistance of the outer shoji screen 3.

[0036] This embodiment provides the following advantages: The sliding window 1 of this embodiment comprises a frame 2 and an outer screen 3 that is disposed within the frame 2 and is movable left and right, and the outer screen 3 comprises a frame 30 with a vertical stile 33, a panel 35 disposed within the frame 30, and a gap closing member 7 disposed between the end face 351 of the panel 35 and the panel retaining groove 331b of the frame 33. This allows the gap closing member 7 to prevent twisting of the vertical stile 33 due to wind pressure, thereby improving the wind pressure resistance of the outer screen 3 with a simple configuration.

[0037] In this embodiment, the gap blockage member 7 is formed in a block shape having a predetermined length in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33. This makes it easy to handle the gap blockage member 7.

[0038] In this embodiment, the gap closing member 7 is positioned in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33 at a position corresponding to the position where the intermediate anti-sway member 6 is positioned. As a result, at the same position in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33 of the outer screen 3, the intermediate anti-sway member 6 suppresses the vibration of the outer screen 3, and the gap closing member 7 prevents the vertical frame 33 from twisting due to wind pressure. This further improves the wind pressure resistance strength of the outer screen 3.

[0039] Although a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure has been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiment and can be modified as appropriate.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the gap blockage member 7 is formed in a block shape having a predetermined length in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33, but is not limited to this. The gap blockage member may be formed in an elongated shape extending over the entire area of ​​the vertical frame 33 in the longitudinal direction.

[0041] In the above embodiment, one gap closing member 7 is provided in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33, but the present invention is not limited to this. A plurality of gap closing members 7 may be provided in the longitudinal direction of the vertical frame 33.

[0042] In the above embodiment, the gap closing member 7 is provided on the vertical frame 33 of the outer shoji screen 3, but this is not limited to this. The gap closing member may be provided on the upper frame 31, lower frame 32, vertical frame 34 of the outer shoji screen 3, or on the upper frame 41, lower frame 42, vertical frame 34, 44 of the inner shoji screen 4.
