And has a watertight material mounting portion 14a.
As shown in FIG. 2, the lower frame 11 has a fitting guide part, for example, a lower rail 15 and an inward piece 16 on its inner surface 11a, and the inward piece 16 is closer to one side in the out-of-plane direction (close to the dressing room side). And has a watertight material mounting portion 16a.
As shown in FIG. 3, the vertical frame 12 has an inwardly facing piece 17 on its inner surface 12a, the inwardly facing piece 17 is located closer to one side in the out-of-plane direction (closer to the dressing room side), and a watertight material mounting portion 17a.

The upper and lower portions of the inwardly facing pieces 17 of the left and right vertical frames 12 are cut and removed, and both the longitudinal ends of the upper frame 10 and the lower frame 11 are connected to the inner surfaces 12a of the left and right vertical frames 12 by screws. doing.
Then, the inward pieces 17 of the left and right vertical frames 12, the inward pieces 14 of the upper frame 10, and the inward pieces 16 of the lower frame 11 are connected four times.
The connection of the upper frame 10, the lower frame 11, and the vertical frame 12 is not limited to that described above, and may be connected by various connection methods that have been conventionally used.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the horizontal frame member 2 is provided with attachment blocks 21 at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the frame member 20 having the openings 5, and the left and right sides of the attachment blocks 21. The end surface, that is, the outer surface is in contact with the inner surface 12 a of the left and right vertical frames 12, the upper surface of the frame member 20 is in contact with the inner surface 10 a of the upper frame 10, and the screws 22 are screwed into the mounting block 21 from the inward pieces 14, 17. It is fixed.
That is, the mounting block 21 has a shape corresponding to the inner surface portion of the vertical frame 12.

The inner surface portion of the frame member 20 has the same shape as the inner surface portion of the upper frame 10. For example, a joinery guide portion (upper rail 23) and an inward piece 24 are provided on the inner surface 20a of the frame member 20, and the inward piece 24 is located closer to one side in the out-of-plane direction and has a watertight material mounting portion 24a.
A fitting guide portion (upper rail 23) is also provided on the inner surface of the mounting block 21, and a fitting guide portion (upper rail 23) is continuously provided in the longitudinal direction on the inner surface of the horizontal frame member 2.
Since it is like this, it is possible to attach the joinery 4 to the joinery attaching frame portion 3 in the same manner as when attaching the joinery 4 to the joinery frame 1.

  It is preferable that the opening 5 of the frame member 20 or the horizontal frame member 2 has a shape that makes it difficult for hot water to flow from the bathroom side toward the dressing room.

As shown in FIG. 2, the frame member 20 includes a first frame member 25 and a second frame member 26, and attachment blocks 21 are attached to both longitudinal ends of the first frame member 25 and the second frame member 26. As a result, the first frame member 25 and the second frame member 26 are connected to be spaced apart in the vertical direction, and the opening 5 described above is formed between the first frame member 25 and the second frame member 26.
Since it is like this, it can be set as the frame material 20 which has the opening part 5 without processing a frame material, such as a drilling process and a slit groove process.

The opening 5 has a staircase shape with a low bathroom side portion and a high dressing room side portion so that hot water in the bathroom does not easily flow through the opening 5 into the dressing room.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the first frame member 25 has a hollow portion 25a and one side hanging plate 25b, and the lateral piece 25c is placed on the other side near the lower portion of the one side hanging plate 25b. The upper portion of the hollow portion 25a has an upward concave portion 27 on which the upper rail 13 of the upper frame 10 faces.
The second frame member 26 has a hollow portion 26a and an other-side rising plate 26b, and a lateral piece 26c is provided on the upper end of the other-side rising plate 26b so as to face one side. The cross-sectional shape is provided with an upper rail 23 and an inward piece 24. That is, the lower surface of the second frame member 26 is the inner surface 20a of the frame member 20 described above.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the mounting block 21 has a first protrusion 31 and a second protrusion 32 which are integrally provided on the inner side surface 30a of the vertical plate 30 with the first protrusion 31 and the second protrusion 32 being vertically separated. The first frame member 25 is fitted into the hollow portion 25a, the end face in the longitudinal direction of the first frame member 25 is in contact with the inner side surface 30a of the vertical plate 30, and the second protrusion 32 is fitted into the hollow portion 26a of the second frame member 26. In combination, the end face in the longitudinal direction of the second frame member 26 is in contact with the inner side surface 30 a of the vertical plate 30. The joinery guide (upper rail 23) is provided on the inner surface of the vertical plate 30.

Thus, the horizontal frame member 2 is obtained by fitting the hollow portions 25a and 26a of the first and second frame members 25 and 26 to the first and second protrusions 31 and 32 of the left and right mounting blocks 21, respectively. And can be easily operated.
And the outer side surface 30b of the said vertical board 30 contact | connects the inner surface 12a of the vertical frame 12, and the screw hole 33 is formed in the side surface 30c of the dressing room of the vertical board 30, and the inward piece 14 is formed in this screw hole 33 as mentioned above. , 17 are screwed into the holes 14b and 17b and attached.

In the above-described embodiment, the frame member 20 is composed of the first and second frame members 25 and 26. However, the frame member 20 may be integrated.
For example, as shown in FIG. 6, a frame member 20 having a hollow shape having a substantially rectangular cross section and having the above-described upward recess 27 on the upper surface and the above-described upper rail 23 and inward piece 24 on the lower surface (inner surface), Vent holes 28 are formed in the one side surface 20b and the other side surface 20c, respectively, to form the openings 5.
A water stop valve 29 is provided in the vent hole 28 of the other side surface 20c, and air flows from one side (dressing room side) to the other side (bathroom side), but air flows from the other side to the one side. Thus, the opening 5 prevents the hot water from flowing from the bathroom side to the dressing room side.

  In this case, the mounting block 21 is provided with a protrusion 34 that fits into the hollow portion of the frame member 20 on the inner side surface 30a of the vertical plate 30 with which the longitudinal end surface of the frame member 20 contacts.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a rising piece 20d is provided in the hollow portion of the frame member 20 so that air flowing through the vent hole 28 on one side surface 20b and the vent hole 28 on the other side surface 20c collides with the rising piece 20d. The opening 5 prevents hot water from flowing from the bathroom side to the dressing room side.

The joiner 4 includes an upper rod 40, a lower rod 41, a door rod 42, a summon rod 43 and a middle rod 44, and the door rod 42 of one fitting 4 is rotatably supported on the upper and lower frames 10, 11. The summing rods 43 are connected to each other so as to be foldable, and the door rods 42 of the other fitting 4 are supported along the upper and lower frames 10 and 11 so as to be slidable in the longitudinal direction. This constitutes a folding door.
As shown in FIG. 2, the lower rod 41 has a ventilation opening 41a. However, when it is intended to secure an effective opening area that satisfies the above-described ventilation path with only the ventilation opening 41a, the ventilation opening 41a is provided. It is necessary to make 41a wider (larger) in the in-plane direction or to stack several (a few steps) ventilation openings 41a on the upper side in the in-plane direction, and there is a risk that hot water may flow from the bathroom side to the dressing room side is there. In addition, the design is poor.
For this purpose, as described above, the horizontal frame member 2 having the opening 5 is attached to ensure an effective opening area.
Needless to say, the doors are not limited to folding doors and may be hinged doors or sliding doors.

In the above-described embodiment, the frame member 20 and the left and right mounting blocks 21 are used as the horizontal frame member 2, but the frame member 20 alone may be used as the horizontal frame member 2.
For example, as shown in FIGS. 8, 9, and 10, a frame member 20 is attached near the upper part of the joinery frame 1 to form a joinery attaching frame portion 3.
The frame member 20 is similar to the frame member 20 shown in FIG. 6 described above, except that a vent hole 28 is formed near the other side surface (bathroom side surface) of the inner surface 20a.

Then, one side surface 20b of the frame member 20 is crank-shaped so that the upper side is closer to the bathroom side and the lower side is closer to the dressing room side, and the inwardly facing piece 14 of the upper frame 10 is in contact with the upper part of the one side surface 20b. The lower surface of one side surface 20b and the side of the dressing room of the inwardly facing piece 14 of the upper frame 10 are flush with each other.
Since both end surfaces in the longitudinal direction of the frame member 20 are connected in contact with the inner surfaces 12 a of the left and right vertical frames 12, the lower portion of one side surface 20 b of the frame member 20 and both end portions in the longitudinal direction of the inward pieces 24 are Since it interferes with the inward piece 17, the interfering portion is cut and removed by the protruding length of the inward piece so that the cut end face 20 d is in contact with the inward piece 17 of the vertical frame 12.
Then, the screw 22 is screwed into the upper part of one side surface 20b of the frame member 20 from the hole 14b of the inwardly facing piece 14 of the upper frame 10, and the frame member 20 is connected.

  The frame member 20 is attached to the first frame member 25 and the second frame member 26 with the first frame member 25 and the second frame member 26 spaced apart from each other in the vertical direction and extending between the left and right vertical frames. It is good also as what has the opening part 5 between.

  In the embodiment described above, the joinery guide portion of the upper frame 10 is the upper rail, but a guide groove or the like for hanging and supporting the suspended door pulley may be used.
