In the embodiment, the sealing material 10 is configured so that the edge in the width direction is surrounded by the end walls 7c and 8c, so that the airtightness is good.

An upper guide 12 is provided at the upper end of the guide rail 5.
Are connected. The upper guide 12 is a short material that extends in the vertical direction, and as shown in FIG.
2a, 12b, one end of the side walls 12a, 12b are opposed to each other, and a front wall 12d having a groove 12c extending vertically and a rear wall formed by connecting the other ends of the side walls 12a, 12b. 12e and an engaging ridge 12f formed on the rear wall 12e.
It is composed of The upper guide 12 is formed of a member having elasticity, for example, a resin. When a predetermined force or more is applied, the upper guide 12 is deformed, and the groove 12c can be expanded. By forming the upper guide 12 from a resin, a noise reduction effect can be obtained.

The lower end of the upper guide 12 is the guide rail 5.
And has a cross-sectional shape substantially the same as that of, and extends gradually toward the upper end side. Specifically, the front walls 12d of the left and right upper guides 12 facing each other are in a direction approaching each other from below to above (the width direction of the building opening).
And gradually extends in an inclined manner. In this way, when the shutter curtain 4 is lowered from the fully opened state, another block 13 located above the guide block 13 located at the lowermost end can be guided well into the upper guide 12. The side walls 12a and 12b gradually extend upward from below and their outer wall surfaces form an inclined surface. The rear wall 12e extends vertically downward from above, and the upper portion extends obliquely rearward. The upper end of the guide rail 5 is fitted into the lower end of the upper guide 12, and the lower ends of the side walls 12 a and 12 b of the upper guide 12 are inclined so that the upper end of the guide rail 5 can be fitted to the upper end. Steps are minimized. Since the outer wall surfaces of the side walls 12a and 12b serve as guide surfaces of the guide blocks 13 that have escaped from the guide rails 5, the guide blocks 13 can be smoothly guided.
It is devised so as to eliminate steps and protrusions at the connection part.

The connection between the upper guide 12 and the guide rail 5 is devised as follows. First, when the upper end of the guide rail 5 is inserted into the upper guide 12, the inner wall surface of the guide rail 5 and the inner wall surface of the upper guide 12 are configured to be flush. By doing so, the vertical movement of the guide block 13 can be favorably performed, and as a result, a smooth opening / closing operation can be performed. Upper guide 1
2 is formed with a fitting groove 12g at a lower end portion thereof, and an upper end portion of the front wall 5d of the guide rail 5 is cut out.
When the upper end of the guide rail 5 is connected to the upper guide 12, the upper ends of the side walls 5a and 5b of the guide rail 5
2 g. By doing so, the guide rail 5 can follow the deformation of the upper guide 12, so that when the groove 12c expands, the groove 5c expands. Further, the engagement ridge 1 of the upper guide 12
Reference numeral 2f is adapted to be received by the engagement receiving portion 6d of the guide rail fixing member 6, and the lower end of the upper guide 12 and the upper end of the guide rail 5 are fitted to each other.
f and 5f are integrated by sliding engagement with the engagement receiving portion 6d.

Next, the structure of the shutter curtain will be described. The shutter curtain 4 includes a sheet body 4a,
A belt-shaped end sheet 4b extending in the up-down direction is welded to both ends in the width direction of the sheet body 4a.
The sheet body 4a and the end sheet 4b are both made of vinyl chloride resin as a main material and polyester as a core material. The end sheet 4b is mixed with a core material more densely than the sheet body 4a, and the end sheet 4b is configured to have strength compared to the sheet body 4a.
In the present embodiment, the end sheet 4b is a sheet body 4
It was observed that the end sheet 4a was thinner and less stiff, and wrinkles were concentrated on the end sheet 4a, and wrinkles were hardly generated on the sheet body 4a. The end portion 4c of the end sheet 4b is welded with a reinforcing band extending in the up-down direction to have a double structure. The fixation is firm.

A plurality of guide blocks 13 are vertically spaced from each other in the width direction end (in the embodiment, the end 4c which has a double structure and is welded) in the width direction. It is provided. The guide block 13
It has opposing side walls 13a, 13b, and one end side is open, so that a groove 13c for receiving the end of the shutter curtain 4 is formed between the opposing side walls 13a, 13b. Opposing side walls 13a, 13b are integrated via a back portion 13d on the other end side, and the outer peripheral surface of the back portion 13d is a curved surface. Further, the back portion 13d is tapered in the vertical direction with the center portion in the height direction as the center. One end side end surfaces of the side walls 13a and 13b are flat surfaces 13e extending in the vertical direction. A curved surface 13f is formed from upper and lower ends of the flat surface 13e to upper and lower ends of the side walls 13a and 13b, and a corner of the upper and lower ends is an inclined surface 13g. In addition, the portions of the upper and lower end sides on the groove 13c side are also inclined surfaces 13j. By doing so, the sheet is easily sandwiched, and the sheet is prevented from being damaged.

In the side walls 13a and 13b, screw receiving holes 13 are provided.
i, receiving holes for receiving the bit inserts 13h are formed to face each other, so that the end of the shutter curtain 4 (that is, the end of the end sheet 4b) is inserted between the side walls 13a and 13b and fastened by screws. Is configured. The guide block 13 has a flat shape as a whole, but has a thickness larger than the width of the groove 5 c of the guide rail 5.

The bit insert 13h is buried slightly inward from the surface of the side wall 13b, and the end of the bit insert 13h is exposed on the surface of the side wall 13b to mark the wear position of the guide block 13 and guide the bit. This serves as a guide for replacing the block 13 (for example, the exposed bit insert 13h comes into sliding contact with the inner wall of the guide rail 5 and generates an abnormal noise). Similarly, the head of the screw to be screwed to the bit insert 13 is also located slightly inside the surface of the side wall 13a, and the wear of the guide block 13 is known by exposing the head of the screw to the surface of the side wall 13a. You can do it. The width of the groove 13c is
The inlet side is slightly larger than the back side, so that the sheet is easy to insert, and when tightened with screws, the inner surface is parallel to the sheet, and by pressing it evenly on the sheet, as a result, the sheet is hard to tear Has become.

The guide blocks 13 are provided at an end in the width direction of the shutter curtain 4 with an interval in the up-down direction. At the lower end of the shutter curtain, two guide blocks 13 are vertically connected. I have. Since the lower end portion of the shutter curtain has the largest stroke amount and is intensely abraded, by attaching two guide blocks 13 in succession at this portion, the surface pressure on the guide block 13 is reduced to reduce the abrasion amount.

In the upper part of the shutter curtain 4, there is provided a sealing member 14 which is located at a part corresponding to the lintel part 19 on the skeleton side when fully closed and extends in the width direction. The sealing material 14 is formed from the same member as the end sheet 4b, and is made to protrude from the surface of the sheet body 4a so as to abut on the lintel portion 19 and maintain airtightness. Conventionally, a seal material was provided on the lintel side, but in this case, the seal material always contacted the shutter curtain 4 during opening and closing. In this case, since the sealing material is provided on the sheet side, the sealing material comes into contact with the lintel portion 19 when fully closed.

By folding and welding the lower end of the shutter curtain 4, a bag-like portion 15 is formed at the lower end of the shutter curtain 4. Bottom weights 16 are provided at both ends in the width direction of the bag-like portion 15. By arranging the weights 16 at the left and right end portions, the winding becomes uniform, and the sheet is less likely to be wrinkled. The bottom weight 16 is made of a large number of lead particles (2 to 3 mm in diameter) in a nylon cloth bag 16a.
(Small pieces) 16b.
By preparing the bag portion 16a filled with the lead particles 16b, a weight having flexibility as a whole can be provided, and the impact at the time of contact can be absorbed.

The bag-shaped portion 15 has left and right bottom weights 1.
A urethane pipe 17 is provided between the six.
The urethane pipe 17 has a function of maintaining the shape of the seat plate. The urethane pipe 17 also functions as a spacer, and regulates the bottom weight 16 from moving toward the center in the width direction. The urethane pipe 17 may be a single member or a plurality of members connected in the length direction.
Note that a bottom sheet 18 is welded to the lower end of the shutter curtain 4 so that the bag-like portion 15 is provided inside.

In the seat shutter constructed as described above, when the shutter is opened and closed, the guide blocks 13 provided at the left and right ends of the shutter curtain 4 are guided by the grooves of the guide rails 5 so that the shutter curtain 4 is moved up and down. Go to When surface pressure acts on the shutter curtain 4 when the opening is fully closed, the shutter curtain 4
The flat surfaces 13e of the guide blocks 13 provided at the right and left ends of the guide rail 5 abut against the front wall 5d of the guide rail 5, thereby opposing the surface pressure.

The guide rail 5 can be moved in the width direction of the opening via the spring assembly 11 and can swing back and forth with respect to the opening. Therefore, when the shutter curtain 4 is bent by the wind or the like, the guide rail 5 is movable following the movement of the shutter curtain 4. As a result, even when the shutter curtain 4 is bent, the plane 13e of the guide block 13
Can contact with the front wall 5d of the guide rail 5 as a whole, so that it can be prevented from coming off with a uniform force. Since a double-sided tape (not shown) is provided between the seal member 10 and the guide rail fixing member 6, the guide rail 5 moves following the movement of the shutter curtain 4 in cooperation with the push nut 10a. Even though, hermeticity is maintained.

When an object hits the shutter curtain 4 or the like, the guide rail 5 and the upper guide 12 are formed of an elastic resin, so that the groove 5c or 12c expands, and the end of the shutter curtain 4 ends. The guide block 13 of the section comes out of the groove. Therefore, the shutter curtain 4 is not broken. In particular, when an object collides, a large local force is generated on the seat, and the upper and lower inclined surfaces 13g of the guide block 13 are moved by the front wall 5d of the guide rail.
The guide block 13 is easily detached from the guide rail 5 because it comes into contact with the inner wall surface of the guide rail. Guide block 13
Since the back surface 13d of the guide rail 13 has a curved surface, the guide block 13 that has once escaped can be pushed into the guide rail 5 with bare hands. As shown in FIG. 4, a predetermined clearance is formed between the rear surface 13d of the guide block 13 and the rear wall 5e of the guide rail 5, and the presence of the clearance causes the guide block 13 to move along the guide rail 5. Can be inclined in the groove of the inclined surface 13g.
Abuts against the inner wall of the front wall 5d.

Even when a plurality of guide blocks 13 are disengaged, if only the lowermost guide block 13 is pushed into the guide rail 5 and the shutter curtain 4 is rolled up, the next time the shutter curtain 4 is lowered, All the guide blocks 13 descend while being in the guide rails. At this time, the blocks 13 other than the lowermost guide block 13 are separated from the guide rails 5.
Outer walls of the side walls 5a and 5b of the upper guide 12
Although the upper wall is moved up along the outer wall surfaces of a and 12b, since the outer wall surface is formed of a smooth surface, the guide block 13 does not get caught.

Referring to FIG. 14, when the shutter curtain 4 is completely rolled up, the lowermost guide block 13 is located in the upper guide 12, and the guide block 13 immediately above is the upper guide block 12. And the upper guide 12 faces downward. Therefore, when the shutter curtain 4 is lowered from this state, all the guide blocks 13 are lowered while being guided by the upper guide 12. In the embodiment, the guide block 13 is continuously provided at the lower end of the shutter curtain, but by doing so, when the lowermost guide block 13 deviated from the guide rail 5 is pushed into the guide rail 5 with bare hands, The curtain can be easily raised, and the subsequent winding can be performed smoothly.

FIG. 15 discloses another means for smoothly pushing the guide block into the guide rail. The basic configuration of the guide block 130 and the guide rail 50 is the same as that of the guide block 13 and the guide rail 5, respectively, but the outer wall of the front wall 50d of the guide rail 50 is inclined toward the groove of the guide rail 50. It is a guide slope that extends. In the figure, the back surface of the guide block 130 is flat, but may be a curved surface like the back surface of the guide block 13.
