[0001] The present invention relates to a fitting to be installed in an opening of a building or other structure. [Background technology]

[0002] There is known a fitting that includes a frame body that is installed in an opening of a building and a drip tray that is installed along the bottom edge of the opening. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a fitting that has a drainage receiver (water tray 10) installed at the joint of a divided drip tray (drip tray plate 1), and that catches water that tries to enter the building structure in the drainage receiver and then drains the caught water to the outside via the drip tray.

[0003] In some cases, the frame body is configured with multiple vertical frames installed along the vertical direction of the opening and a lower frame installed along the lower edge of the opening so as to connect the lower ends of the multiple vertical frames. In this case, if a gap occurs where the vertical frames and the lower frame join, there is a risk that water will enter the body through the gap. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 62-177890 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, in the building fixtures of Patent Document 1, the installation location of the drain receiver is limited to the joint of the drip edge, making it difficult to optimize the installation location of the drain receiver so as to catch water that attempts to enter the structure from the joint between the vertical frame and the bottom frame. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The present invention was created in consideration of the above-mentioned actual situation and with the aim of solving these problems. The invention of claim 1 is a fixture comprising a frame body to be installed in an opening of a building and a gutter installed along the bottom edge of the opening, wherein the frame body includes a plurality of vertical frames installed in the vertical direction in the opening and a bottom frame installed along the bottom edge of the opening so as to connect the bottom ends of the vertical frames, and a drain receiver is installed below the joint between the vertical frames and the bottom frame, and the drain receiver can be connected to the gutter at any position in the width direction of the opening, and the drain receiver catches water that attempts to enter the structure from the joint, and the caught water is drained outdoors via the gutter. In addition, the invention of claim 2 is a fixture described in claim 1, characterized in that the drain receiver has an overlapping portion that overlaps a part of the drip tray from above, and a step portion is formed between the overlapping portion and the drip tray, with the drip tray side being lower, and the water received by the drain receiver flows into the drip tray through the step portion. The invention of claim 3 is the fitting according to claim 2, characterized in that a bead is provided between the overlapping portion and the drip edge. Furthermore, the invention of claim 4 is a fixture described in any one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the lower frame is fixed to the main body of the building via a plurality of anchor members, and the plurality of anchor members fix the lower frame to the main body at a position in the width direction of the opening where the drain receiver is not installed. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to the invention of claim 1, a drain receiver is installed below the joint between the vertical frame and the lower frame, so that water that tries to enter the structure from the joint can be caught by the drain receiver and the caught water can be drained outdoors through the drainage. In addition, since the drain receiver can be connected to the drainage at any position in the width direction of the opening, compared to when the installation position of the drain receiver is limited to the joint of the drainage, not only can the installation position of the drain receiver be optimized to prevent water from entering the structure, but workability can also be improved. Furthermore, according to the invention of claim 2, the drain receiver has an overlapping portion that overlaps a part of the drainer from above, and a step portion is formed between the overlapping portion and the drainer, with the drainer side being lower, so that the water received by the drain receiver flows into the drainer through the step portion, thereby preventing water from flowing back from the drainer to the drain receiver. According to the invention of claim 3, a bead is provided between the overlapping portion and the drip edge, so that water can be prevented from entering the body of the building from between the overlapping portion and the drip edge. Furthermore, according to the invention of claim 4, the lower frame is fixed to the building's main structure via a plurality of anchor members, and the plurality of anchor members fix the lower frame to the main structure at a position in the width direction of the opening where a drainage receiver cannot be installed, thereby preventing the anchor members from obstructing the installation of the drainage receiver.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, a sealing portion is indicated by S, and a drainage path is indicated by H.

[0010] 1 to 6, reference numeral 1 denotes a fitting, which comprises a frame 2 installed in an opening 101 of a building 100, a plurality of anchor members 3 that secure the frame 2 to a skeleton 102 of the building 100, glass 4 installed on the inner periphery of the frame 2, a drip edge 5 installed along the bottom edge of the opening 101, and a plurality of drain pans 6, which will be described later. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a plurality of fittings 1 may be installed in a row in the width direction of the opening 101 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as the width direction). In such a case, the frames 2 of adjacent fittings 1 are connected to each other via connecting members 7.

[0011] The frame body 2 comprises an upper frame 21, a lower frame 22, and vertical frames 23, 24, which are made of, for example, extruded profiles or bent parts. The vertical frames 23, 24 are arranged in the vertical direction in the opening 101. The vertical frames 23, 24 in this embodiment include vertical frames 23 for end installation that are installed at both ends of the doorway direction of the fitting 1, and vertical frames 24 for intermediate installation that are installed between the vertical frames 23 for end installation.

[0012] The upper frame 21 is installed along the upper side of the opening 101 so as to connect the upper ends of the multiple vertical frames 23, 24. The lower frame 22 is installed along the lower side of the opening 101 so as to connect the lower ends of the multiple vertical frames 23, 24.

[0013] The anchor members 3 include frame-side anchor members 31 fixed to the frame 102 side by welding or the like, and frame-side anchor members 32 fixed to the frame 2 side by welding or the like, and the frame 2 is fixed to the frame 102 by connecting the frame-side anchor members 32 fixed to the frame 2 to the frame-side anchor members 31 by welding or the like. For example, as shown in Figure 2, the bottom frame 22 is fixed to the frame 102 via multiple anchor members 3 lined up at predetermined intervals in the width direction, but at this time the multiple anchor members 3 are installed to avoid positions below the joint T between the vertical frames 23, 24 and the bottom frame 22.

[0014] Drainer 5 is installed along the bottom edge of opening 101 and across the entire width of opening 101. As shown in Figures 1 to 7, drainer 5 includes a hollow drainer body 51 that is installed along the bottom edge of opening 101, and small opening lids 52 that close both ends of drainer body 51 in the width direction.

[0015] The drainer body 51 comprises an upper surface 51a that slopes downward toward the outdoor side, a lower surface 51b that follows the lower edge of the opening 101, a front surface 51c that extends downward from the outdoor end of the upper surface 51a, a connecting portion 51d that connects the lower end of the front surface 51c to the outdoor end of the lower surface 51b, a drain outlet 51e formed in the connecting portion 51d, a partition portion 51f that connects the middle portions of the upper surface 51a and the lower surface 51b and divides the interior of the drainer body 51 into an outdoor space K1 and an indoor space K2, a lower frame fixing portion 51g that extends upward from the outdoor end of the upper surface 51a, and a bead mounting portion 51h that is formed to protrude upward from the indoor end of the lower surface 51b.

[0016] The drainer body 51 configured in this manner is fixed to the lower frame 22 after the frame body 2 is installed on the main body 102. Specifically, the lower frame fixing portion 51g of the drainer body 51 is overlapped with the drainer mounting portion 22a formed on the lower surface of the lower frame 22 from the outdoor side and fixed with the screw N1.

[0017] The indoor space K2 is a space that opens to the indoor side, and at its bottom is formed a gutter 51i, with the lower surface 51b as the gutter bottom and the partition 51f and bead mounting portion 51h as the gutter side. Water that flows into the gutter 51i is guided to one or both ends in the width direction and flows into the outdoor space K1 through notches 51j formed at both ends in the width direction of the partition 51f. The water that flows into the outdoor space K1 is then discharged to the outdoors through the drain outlet 51e.

[0018] As shown in Figures 4, 6 and 8, the drain receiver 6 is a dish-shaped member and includes a drain receiver main body 61 and side panels 62 provided at both ends of the drain receiver main body 61 in the width direction. The drain receiver main body 61 includes a flat plate portion 61a that forms the bottom of the dish shape, a back plate portion 61b that extends upward from the indoor side end of the flat portion 61a, an overlapping portion 61c that overlaps the bead mounting portion 51h of the drainer 5 from above, and a drainer fixing portion 61d that extends downward from the flat plate portion 61a.

[0019] The drain receiver 6 is installed below the joint T between the vertical frames 23, 24 and the bottom frame 22. In other words, the drain receiver 6 catches water that tries to enter the body 102 from the joint T, and the caught water is drained outside via the drain 5.

[0020] The drain pan 6 can be connected to the drip tray 5 at any position in the width direction. Specifically, the drip tray fixing portion 61d of the drain pan 6 is fixed to the bead mounting portion 51h of the drip tray 5 at any position in the width direction with a screw N2. This not only optimizes the installation position of the drain pan 6 to prevent water from entering the body 102, but also improves workability. The indoor end of the drain pan 6 is fixed to the body 102 via an anchor member 63. Specifically, the anchor member 63 is fixed to the body 102 by welding or the like according to the installation position of the drain pan 6, and the back plate portion 61b of the drain pan 6 is fixed to the anchor member 63 with a screw N3.

[0021] The overlapping portion 61c of the drain receiver 6 overlaps the bead mounting portion 51h of the drainer 5 from above, forming a step D between the overlapping portion 61c and the drainer, where the drainer 5 side is lower. This not only allows the water received by the drain receiver 6 to flow smoothly into the drainer 5 via the step D, but also prevents the water in the drain receiver 6 from flowing back from the drainer 5 to the drain receiver 6.

[0022] In addition, a bead 53 is provided between the overlapping portion 61c of the drain pan 6 and the drainer 5. Specifically, the bead 53 is attached to the bead attachment portion 51h of the drain pan 5, and the tip side of the bead 53 abuts against the underside of the overlapping portion 61c. This configuration also prevents water from entering the body 102 from between the overlapping portion 61c of the drain pan 6 and the drainer 5.

[0023] According to this embodiment configured as described above, the fitting 1 comprises a frame 2 installed in an opening 101 of a building 100 and a gutters 5 installed along the bottom edge of the opening 101, the frame 2 including a plurality of vertical frames 23, 24 installed in the vertical direction in the opening 101 and a bottom frame 22 installed along the bottom edge of the opening 101 so as to connect the bottom ends of the plurality of vertical frames 23, 24, and a drain pan 6 is installed below a joint T between the vertical frames 23, 24 and the bottom frame 22. This allows the drain pan 6 to catch water that attempts to enter the building structure 102 from the joint T, and the caught water to be drained outdoors via the gutters 5.

[0024] In addition, since the drain receiver 6 can be connected to the drip tray 5 at any position in the width direction of the opening 101, compared to when the installation position of the drain receiver 6 is limited to the joint of the drip tray 5, the installation position of the drain receiver 6 can be optimized to not only prevent water from entering the main body 102, but also improve workability.

[0025] In addition, the drain receiver 6 has an overlapping portion 61c that overlaps a part of the drainer 5 from above, and a step portion D is formed between the overlapping portion 61c and the drainer 5, with the drainer 5 side being lower, and water received by the drain receiver 6 flows into the drainer 5 through the step portion D, thereby preventing water from flowing back from the drainer 5 to the drain receiver 6.

[0026] Furthermore, since a bead 53 is provided between the overlapping portion 61c of the drain receiver 6 and the drainer 5, water can be prevented from entering the body 102 from between the overlapping portion 61c and the drainer 5.

[0027] Furthermore, the lower frame 22 is fixed to the skeleton 102 of the building 100 via a plurality of anchor members 3, and the plurality of anchor members 3 fix the lower frame 22 to the skeleton 102 at a position in the width direction of the opening 101 where the drainage receiver 6 will not be installed, thereby preventing the anchor members 3 from interfering with the installation of the drainage receiver 6. Furthermore, since the drainage receiver 6 is installed only below the joint T between the vertical frames 23, 24 and the lower frame 22, interference with bolts, piping, etc. installed in the skeleton 102 can also be avoided.

[0028] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. For example, as shown in Fig. 9(a), the underside 51b of the drainer 5 may be inclined so that it is lower toward the outdoor side. In this way, water that has flowed into the drainer 5 can be smoothly drained along the inclination. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 9(b), the bead 53 may be attached to the drain pan 6 side instead of the drainer 5 side. [Explanation of symbols]
