Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention supports various walls such as a general glass panel, a heat ray reflection glass panel, and a metal panel constituting an outer wall or a sash of a building on a building frame such as a steel frame or a floor slab. The present invention relates to a wall support device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In buildings and the like in recent years, various designs have been used for the outer wall surfaces of curtain walls. For example, a glass curtain wall is often used as an outer wall of an atrium space arranged on a lower floor of a large building. As a method of supporting the glass curtain wall, a method of supporting a glass panel with a cubic attached to a frame of a building and blindly is common.

[0003] By the way, the purpose of using a glass curtain wall is to improve the design and to improve the visibility inside and outside the room to enhance the viewability. For this reason, it is desired that the shape and the view that affect the design and the viewability of the glass curtain wall be as small as possible. In addition, it is required to increase the distance between the fulcrum fulcrum and the blind fulcrum.

[0004]

However, if the span (distance) between the cubic or blind spans is increased, a large load is applied to each cubic to which the load of the wall is finally transmitted. In particular, because the area of the glass panel is large, the wind load (positive and negative pressures due to the wind) applied to the glass panel is large, so that the expected size of the cubic is increased to support the wind load. I had to increase the strength.

[0005] Here, the cubic is required to have a concave groove or the like for holding a glass panel or the like, and also needs to have strength. Therefore, the cubic is usually formed of an extruded aluminum material or the like. A cubicle supporting a larger glass panel is significantly different in size and configuration from a cubicle supporting a normal-sized glass panel. There is a problem that the cost is high in this respect.

[0006] Further, since a metal ridge having a large expected size is arranged, the span between the cubic and the blinds is increased to make the cubic and the blinds inconspicuous. Nevertheless, if a cubic with a large expected size is arranged, the cubic is emphasized in terms of design, and there is a problem that the design of the glass curtain wall also deteriorates.

[0007] Such a problem is not limited to a glass curtain wall using a glass panel, but also applies to a case where a metal plate such as an aluminum plate or a panel material of various materials such as a resin plate or a stone plate is used as a wall body. .

It is an object of the present invention to provide a wall supporting device which can support a wind load without increasing the expected size of a cubic, can improve the design, and can reduce the cost.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a wall supporting device for supporting a wall constituting a wall surface of a building, comprising a cubic attached to a building frame and supporting a side end surface of the wall. ,
A blind spanned between the cubicles and supporting the upper and lower edges of the wall, a reinforcing member arranged along the cubicle, and the reinforcing member connected to the cubicle and together with the cubicle; And a connecting member for connecting the cubic member and the reinforcing member by sandwiching the reinforcing member in the indoor and outdoor directions.

In the present invention, the load of the wall itself such as a glass panel is mainly supported by cubic and blind. Further, since the reinforcing members arranged along the cubic are connected to the cubic via the connecting member, the reinforcing member can support the wind load applied to the wall. In particular, the reinforcement
Since the reinforcing members are sandwiched between the room and the outside from the room and the connecting members, even when the reinforcing member is arranged only on the indoor side or the outdoor side of the wall, both the positive pressure and the negative pressure applied to the wall are reduced. Can support wind loads. Therefore, it is not necessary to arrange the reinforcing members on both sides of the wall inside and outside the room, so that the cost can be reduced and the design can be improved.

In addition, since the connection between the reinforcing member and the cubic is performed by sandwiching the reinforcing member between the cubicle and the connecting member connected to the cubic from inside and outside the room, holes are formed in the reinforcing member. There is no need to open and fix bolts directly with bolts.
For this reason, it is not necessary to form a hole in the reinforcing material, so that the manufacturing of the reinforcing material is facilitated, and the processing accuracy of each of the cubic and the reinforcing material can be reduced, thereby facilitating the manufacturing and construction work.

[0012] Further, in the case of drilling holes in the reinforcing material and bolting the stiffener, the materials of the stiffener and the reinforcing material are different.
If there is a difference in the amount of thermal elongation, the hole and the bolt may interfere with each other. However, in the present embodiment, since the reinforcing member is sandwiched between the connecting member and the directional member, the directional member and the reinforcing member are different types. Even if it is made of a material, the difference in the amount of thermal elongation can be absorbed by the clearance between the reinforcing material and the connecting material or the cubic. In particular, the connecting material is usually made of metal, whereas the reinforcing material is made of glass or the like. Therefore, even if there is thermal elongation, even if there is a slight gap between the reinforcing member and the connecting member or the cubic, it is usually enough to be absorbed by an elastic sheet such as rubber, which also affects the support of wind pressure. There is no. Therefore, the cubic and reinforcing members can be made of different materials, and design variations can be increased.

Here, it is preferable that the reinforcing member is made of a glass plate. As the reinforcing material, various plate materials such as steel, wooden, resin, and stone can be used. In particular, if a glass plate (glass panel) is used,
The view can be improved without the visibility being hindered by the reinforcing material. In particular, even when the expected size of the reinforcing material is increased in order to increase the span of the cubic, a sufficient view can be obtained by configuring the reinforcing material with a transparent glass panel.

When a hole is formed in the reinforcing material, it is necessary to use a reinforced glass panel in order to secure the strength. However, in the present invention, it is not necessary to form a hole in the reinforcing material. When is made of a glass plate material, the glass is not limited to a tempered glass panel, and various glasses such as a transparent float glass, a heat ray reflective glass, and a heat absorbing glass can be used.

Further, it is preferable that the wall is made of a glass plate which is cubically and seamlessly supported.

As the wall, various surface materials such as a metal panel such as aluminum, a stone panel, a resin panel and the like can be used in addition to a glass panel. And the design can be improved. In particular, since the cubic and seamless spans are enlarged, it is possible to form a wall surface with an enhanced viewability and design with an emphasized glass surface.

Further, since the wall is supported in a cubic and blind manner, it is not necessary to form a through hole in the wall unlike the curtain wall of the DPG method (dot point glazing method). A special wall body such as a heat ray reflective glass panel can be used. Therefore, as the glass panel, various types of glass panels such as a general transparent float glass panel, a heat ray reflection glass panel, a tempered glass panel, and a ceramic printed glass can be used.

Further, the connecting member includes a cubic side holding member fixed in a cubic manner, a reinforcing member side holding member disposed with the reinforcing material interposed between the cubic side holding member, and each of these holding members. It is preferable to include a connecting member for connecting the members.

Since the wind load supported by the reinforcing member differs depending on the area of a wall such as a glass panel, it is necessary to adjust the expected size of the reinforcing member according to the load. If the expected dimensions of the reinforcement are different,
In the connecting member of the present invention, a connecting member having a length corresponding to the dimension of the reinforcing member may be prepared, and each holding member can be used in common, so that the number of parts can be reduced, and management cost and manufacturing cost can be reduced. .

Thus, the screen 10 and the blind 20 are supported by the floor panel 2 on the skeleton side, and the glass panel 30 is supported by the screen 10 and the blind 20. At this time, the load of the glass panel 30 itself is supported by the cubic 10 and the blind 20. The wind load applied to the cubic 10 is supported by the reinforcing member 40 via the connecting member 50. Thus, the glass curtain wall 5 is configured.

When a positive pressure is applied to the glass panel 30, the load is transmitted to the cubic 10, and the cubic 10 abuts on the reinforcing member 40 via the protective sheet 15. Supported. On the other hand, when a negative pressure is applied to the glass panel 30, the load is transmitted to the cubic 10 and the cubic 1
It is displaced toward 0 outside the room. The displacement of the partition 10 toward the outdoor side is transmitted to the reinforcing member-side holding member 52 via the cubic-side holding member 51 and the connecting member 53, and the reinforcing member-side holding member 52 is connected to the reinforcing member 40 via the protective sheet 57. Abutting against the indoor side edge of the reinforcing member 4
0 is supported.

According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. (1) The wind load such as positive pressure or negative pressure applied to the glass panel 30 is supported by the reinforcement 10 holding the glass panel 30 or the reinforcing member 40 different from the blind 20.
Also, it is not necessary to make the expected size of the blind 20 so large. For this reason, the same shape and the same cross-section shape and dimensions as those for supporting a glass panel having a normal size can be used for the cubic 10 and the blind 20. Therefore, the mold and the like can be shared, and the cost can be reduced. Can be reduced.

(2) Since the reinforcing member 40 whose prospective dimension of the cubic 10 is small and which extends in the prospective direction is made of a glass panel, it is the same as the case where a metal cubic with a large prospective dimension is used. In addition, the view can be improved without the visibility being obstructed by the cubic. For this reason, since the view does not decrease even if the expected size of the reinforcing material 40 is increased, the span between the cubicles 10 can be increased to reduce the number of cubicles, and the transparent glass panel 30 is emphasized. The curtain wall 5 excellent in viewability and design can be configured. Further, as in the case of the wall composed of the glass panel 30, the reinforcing member 40 is also made of glass, and the dimensions of the metal cubic 10 and the blind 20 are small. The design can be further improved.

(3) The reinforcing member 40 is formed by the connecting member 50 and the cubic member 10.
Is sandwiched from the indoor and outdoor directions, so that even when the reinforcing member 40 is disposed only on the indoor side of the
Both positive and negative wind loads from 0 to the cubic 10 can be supported by the reinforcement 40. Therefore, it is not necessary to arrange the reinforcing members 40 on both sides of the interior and exterior of the glass panel 30, and the cost can be reduced and the design can be improved.

(4) In connecting the reinforcing member 40 and the cubicle 10, the connecting member 50 is connected to the cubic member 10, and the connecting member 50 and the cubic member 10 sandwich the reinforcing member 40 from inside and outside the room. Because it is connected by processing the hole in the reinforcing material 40,
There is no need to directly bolt the turret 10. For this reason,
The drilling of the reinforcing member 40 can be eliminated, the processing accuracy can be relaxed compared to the case of drilling, the manufacturing and construction work of the reinforcing member 40 and the cubic 10 can be easily performed, and the manufacturing efficiency can be improved. .

(5) Further, since it is not necessary to form a hole in the reinforcing member 40, even when the cubic member 10 and the reinforcing member 40 are made of different materials, the difference in the amount of thermal elongation can be easily absorbed. For this reason, the cubic member 10 and the reinforcing member 40 can be made of different materials, and the reinforcing members 40 of various materials can be appropriately selected according to designability and the like, so that design variations can be increased.

(6) The glass curtain wall 5 is
Since the glass panel 30 is supported by 0 and the stitches 20, even when the height of the glass panel 30 is increased, the strength can be secured by the cubic 10 and the stitches 20, and the thickness of the glass panel 30 can be reduced. Since it is not necessary to increase the size, the cost can be reduced.

(7) Since the glass panel 30 is supported by the cubic 10 and the blind 20, it is not necessary to form a through hole in the glass panel 30 unlike the conventional DPG method. For this reason, the processing of the glass panel 30 becomes unnecessary, and the cost can be reduced. In addition, a wall of a material that cannot form a through hole can be used, and the limitation of the material that can be used as the wall is reduced. Walls can be supported.

(8) Connecting the connecting member 50 to the cubic side holding member 51,
Since the reinforcing member 40 is composed of the reinforcing member side holding member 52 and the connecting member 53, even if the expected dimensions of the reinforcing member 40 are different, it is possible to cope by replacing only the connecting member 53 with one corresponding to the expected dimension. Since the members 51 and 52 can be used in common, the number of parts can be reduced, and management costs and manufacturing costs can be reduced.

(9) In addition, since the connecting member 53 is screwed to the cubic holding member 51 and fixed with the set screw 58, the dimension between the holding members 51 and 52 can be adjusted somewhat. For this reason, the contact force with the reinforcing member 40 can be appropriately adjusted, and by setting the protective sheets 15 and 57 therebetween, the setting can be easily performed so that there is no play or a gap, thereby improving the workability of construction. it can.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, the configuration of the connecting member 50 is not limited to that of the above-described embodiment, but may be any as long as the reinforcing member 40 can be sandwiched together with the cubic 10. For example, as shown in FIG.
A pair of plate-like connecting members 15 arranged on both sides of the reinforcing member 40 and inserted into the cubicle 10 and fixed with bolts 155
3 and a reinforcing member-side holding member 152 composed of a decorative bolt attached to each connecting member 153 at the indoor end thereof.

As shown in FIG. 7, bolts 155 are arranged on both sides of the reinforcing member 40 and inserted into the
And a pair of plate-like connecting members 253 whose interior side ends are bent into an L-shape, and which are in contact with the interior side edges of the reinforcing member 40 via a protective sheet 157. The connecting member 250 may be used.

In short, as the connecting member, the reinforcing member 40 is sandwiched together with the cubicle 10 from inside and outside the room, so that the reinforcing member 40
It is not necessary to form a connection hole in the connector, and any material capable of transmitting both positive pressure and negative pressure to the reinforcing member 40 may be used.
The specific configuration is not limited to the above example.

In the above embodiment, the wall 30 and the reinforcing member 40 are each made of a glass panel.
Each of them may use various plate materials made of steel, wood, resin, stone and the like. These may be appropriately set according to the performance, design, and the like required for the curtain wall. Furthermore, if the materials of the wall 30 and the reinforcing material 40 are made common, the appearance and the inside of the curtain wall can be made to have a unified feeling, and the design property can be improved.

Further, the number of the connecting members 50 may be appropriately set according to the height of the reinforcing member 40 and the like. In the above-described embodiment, a vertically long glass panel is used. However, a horizontally long or substantially square glass panel may be used.

Further, the reinforcing member 40 is formed of the glass panel 30.
It is not limited to the case where it is arranged on the indoor side, and may be arranged on the outdoor side. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the wall support device is applied to the curtain wall 5, but the present invention is applied to a sash that is arranged in a normal wall or between a ceiling and a floor and configured in a cubic and seamless manner. May be.
