Description

  The present invention relates to a floor expansion joint for a building, and more particularly to a floor expansion joint for a medium to high-rise building.

It is known that two or more structurally divided buildings are joined together by an expansion joint in a building adopting a seismic isolation structure. However, when the height of a building exceeds a certain level, the swing width at the time of an earthquake increases at the high-rise part, and the distance between two or more buildings also increases, so existing expansion joints often cannot cope with it. Therefore, there is a technique described in Patent Document 1 as a technique corresponding to the movement of the expansion joint during an earthquake.
In the technique described in Patent Document 1, in the mounting bracket (20) attached to one end of the floor member (10) that bridges the outer wall (90) and the ground (92), the mounting bracket (20) A bearing mechanism (shaft (24), bearing (25)) for pivotally supporting the floor member (20) so that the other end of the member (10) can be rotated in the vertical direction is provided. ) Has a link mechanism (20) for enabling vertical movement of one end side. By having these mechanisms, the mounting bracket (20) is prevented from being damaged by an earthquake.

JP 2008-057239 A

  However, this connection method can cope with vertical displacement between buildings due to an earthquake or the like, but cannot cope with horizontal displacement. In addition, since the one end of the shaft that allows the floor member to rotate up and down is provided so as to be movable up and down, the mounting structure of the floor board becomes complicated, and the manufacturing cost of the floor expansion joint increases and the durability may decrease. .

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a floor expansion joint with a simple mounting structure that can cope with vertical and horizontal movements and is excellent in durability.

In order to solve the above problems, the invention according to claim 1 is a floor expansion joint for buildings,
A floorboard spanned between the first building and the second building;
Connecting means for connecting one end of the floorboard to the first building;
A mounting surface provided in the second building, on which the other end of the floorboard is placed,
The connecting means allows a horizontal movement that intersects the direction of the one end and the other end of the floor plate, and allows the other end to be turned up and down with the one end of the floor plate as a fulcrum. And a hinge mechanism.

The invention according to claim 2 is the floor expansion joint for building according to claim 1,
The second building is provided with a flat portion having substantially the same height as the surface of the floorboard placed on the mounting surface, and a step is formed between the flat portion and the mounting surface. A gap in which the placement surface is exposed is formed between one end surface of the substrate and the flat surface.

The invention according to claim 3 is the floor expansion joint for building according to claim 1 or 2,
A step where the front end is placed on the flat surface, the rear end is fixed to the surface of the other end of the floor plate or near the surface, and the front end is pivotable in the vertical direction with the rear end as a fulcrum. A cover is further provided.

Invention of Claim 4 in the floor expansion joint for buildings of Claims 1-3,
It is further provided with the pipe which has the guide surface which is installed in the level | step-difference part formed between the said flat surface and the said mounting surface, and guides the one end part of the said floor board upwards.

Invention of Claim 5 is the floor expansion joint for buildings of Claims 1-4,
The connecting means includes
A shaft member having a circular cross section fixed to the side surface of the first building in a state of being separated from the side surface;
And a support member provided on a lower surface of the floor plate and having a circular hole through which the shaft member passes.

According to the present invention, since the connecting means for connecting the floor board and the first building has the slide mechanism and the hinge mechanism, the floor board spanned between the first building and the second building is moved up and down. Can move in both direction and horizontal direction. Therefore, even if a displacement occurs between buildings due to an earthquake or the like, the floorboard is not damaged or dropped, and the floorboard can be displaced to an arrangement corresponding to the displacement. When the buildings return to the regular arrangement, the position of the floorboard can also return to the original arrangement, and no restoration work is required.
In addition, since the flat surface is formed at a position higher than the placement surface on which the floor plate is placed by the thickness of the floor plate, there is no step between the floor plate and the second building. Things are easy to pass over.
In addition, since a gap is formed between the floorboard and the flat surface, when the distance between the two buildings is reduced due to an earthquake or the like, the floorboard is made to narrow the gap between the floorboard and the flat surface. Since it can slide on the mounting surface, the floorboard does not come off or breaks, and safety is high.
Moreover, since the level | step difference cover is attached to the front end of a floor board, the clearance gap between a floor board and a flat surface can be covered, and a person or an object tends to pass on it.
Since a pipe with a guide surface that guides one end of the floor board upward is arranged at the step formed between the flat surface and the mounting surface, the distance between the buildings of the two buildings is reduced due to earthquakes, etc. When the gap between the floor board and the flat surface is close enough, one end of the floor board can be slid obliquely upward along the guide surface, and the floor board does not come off or break. Since the pipe having the guide surface is used, the durability is excellent and the slide movement becomes smoother.
Since the connecting means comprises a shaft member and a support member, the structure of the connecting means is simple, the installation workability is good, and the manufacturing cost of the floor expansion joint can be suppressed.

  Below, the form for implementing this invention is demonstrated. However, the embodiments described below are provided with various technically preferable limitations for carrying out the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[First Embodiment]
The first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1-3 show the floor expansion joint 1 of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the floor expansion joint 1 as viewed obliquely from above, FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing a portion where the floor expansion is attached to a building, and FIG. 3 shows the movement of the floor expansion joint 1. It is the schematic sectional drawing which showed. The floor expansion joint 1 is provided in two or more buildings, or in the same building, which is divided into two or more structurally.

  A gap 8 is formed between the building (first building) 3 and the building (second building) 4, and the rectangular floor board 2 is arranged so as to bridge the gap 8. The rear end (one end) of the floor board 2 is attached to the building 3, and the front end (other end) of the floor board 2 is placed on the building 4. The shape of the floor board 2 is not limited to a rectangular shape, and may be a circular shape, a polygonal shape, or other shapes.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the floor board 2 includes a floor box 21, rock wool 22 and floor concrete 23. The floor box 21 is made of stainless steel or other metal and is formed in a box shape having an open upper surface. Rock wool 22 is spread all over the lower part inside the floor box 21. A reinforcing bar is installed on the rock wool 22, and the floor concrete 23 is placed thereon. In this way, the floor board 2 is formed, and the cost for manufacturing the floor board 2 can be reduced by the manufacturing method. In addition, since the concrete is exposed on the upper surface of the floor board 2, the same surface layer material as that of other corridor portions can be pasted on the surface of the floor board 2.

  Three support members 24 are provided on the lower end of the floor board 2 and at the rear end thereof. The support member 24 is a plate-like member having a circular hole 25, and is fixed perpendicularly to the lower surface of the floor plate 2 so that the support members 24 are parallel to each other. The floor plate 2 is attached to the building 3 by attaching the support member 24 to the building 3. The number of support members 24 is not limited to three, and may be any number as long as it is one or more.

  A thin plate-like step cover 7 is attached to the upper surface of the front end portion of the floor plate 2, and the tip 71 (front end portion) of the step cover 7 protrudes from the front edge of the floor plate 2. The step cover 7 is attached by fixing the hinge portion 72 (rear end portion) of the step cover 7 to the upper surface of the front end portion of the floor plate 2, and the tip end 71 is rotatable up and down with the hinge-shaped portion 72 as a fulcrum. It has become.

A shaft member 5 having a circular cross section is attached to the side surface 31 of the building 3 that forms the gap 8 in a state of being separated from the side surface 31, and the axial direction thereof is substantially parallel to the side surface 31. The shaft member 5 is attached to the side surface 31 by welding the shaft member 5 to four fixing tools 32 provided on the side surface 31. The number of fixtures 32 is not limited to four, and may be any number as long as it is one or more.
The floor board 2 is attached by the shaft member 5 passing through all the circular holes 25 of the three support members 24 provided on the floor board 2. By arranging the support member 24 and the fixture 32 at predetermined positions, the upper surface of the floor board 2 and the flat surface 33 become substantially the same height. Further, since the circular hole 25 is formed slightly larger than the cross-sectional circle of the shaft member 5, the support member 24 can slide along the axial direction of the shaft member 5, and the side periphery of the shaft member 5 It can be rotated. Therefore, the floor board 2 provided with the support member 24 can also move horizontally along the axial direction of the shaft member 5 and its front end can be turned up and down with the support member 24 as a fulcrum. Further, in order to ensure a sufficient amount of movement in the horizontal direction, the arrangement of the support member 24 and the fixture 32 is considered so that the support member 24 is positioned between the two fixtures 32.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the connecting means including the support member 24, the circular hole 25, the shaft member 5 and the fixture 32 is provided with the slide mechanism that allows the floor plate 2 to move in the horizontal direction and the front end portion of the floor plate 2. It has a hinge mechanism that can be rotated in the vertical direction.

A mounting surface 41 is formed on the building 4, and a flat surface 42 is formed at a position slightly higher than the mounting surface 41. The front end portion of the floor board 2 is placed on the placement surface 41, and the tip 71 of the step cover 7 attached to the front end portion of the floor board 2 is placed on the flat surface 42. The level difference between the mounting surface 41 and the flat surface 42 is substantially equal to the thickness of the floor board 2. Therefore, the upper surface of the floor board 2 and the flat surface 42 are substantially the same height. Further, since the mounting surface 41 is formed wider than the front end portion of the floor plate 2, a gap 43 is formed between the floor plate 2 and the flat surface 42. The gap cover 7 covers the gap 43. Since the step cover 7 is formed in a thin plate shape, almost no step is generated when the step cover 7 is placed, and the upper surface of the floor plate 2, the upper surface of the step cover 7, and the flat surface 42 have substantially the same height. Become.
A series of surfaces formed by the upper surface of the floor plate 2, the step cover 7, the flat surface 33, and the flat surface 42 may not be horizontal as long as they are flat, and may be inclined in a certain direction.

Further, a stainless steel pipe 6 is disposed at a corner formed by the mounting surface 41 and the step surface 44. That is, the pipe 6 is located directly below the step cover 7. The pipe 6 has a trapezoidal cross section, and the surface 61 forming the side surface of the pipe 6 is in contact with the step surface 44, and the surface 62 is in contact with the mounting surface 41. It is arranged in a state where there is almost no gap at the angle formed by 44. Further, since the distance between the surface 62 and the surface 63 of the pipe 6 is substantially the same as the step between the flat surface 42 and the mounting surface 41, the surface 63 has substantially the same height as the flat surface 42 and the floor board 2. In contact with the lower surface of the step cover 7. Further, a guide surface 64 that is inclined from the mounting surface 41 to the flat surface 42 is formed on the pipe 6.
The shape of the cross section of the pipe 6 is not limited to a trapezoidal shape, and may be a triangle, a circle, or any other shape as long as the guide surface 64 inclined from the placement surface 41 to the flat surface 42 is formed.

  The floor expansion joint 1 configured as described above can cope with deviations in the X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction of the buildings 3 and 4 due to an earthquake or the like. Here, the X direction is the width direction of the floor board 2 and the axial direction of the shaft member 5 at the same time. The Y direction is a direction orthogonal to the X direction and is a width direction between the buildings 3 and 4. The Z direction is the height direction of the buildings 3 and 4 and the thickness direction of the floor board 2. Hereinafter, the movement of the floor expansion joint 1 will be described.

  As described above, the circular hole 25 of the support member 24 that holds the shaft member 5 is formed to be slightly larger than the cross-sectional circle of the shaft member 5. For this reason, the support member 24 can move in the X direction along the axial direction of the shaft member 5, and the floor plate 2 fixed to the support member 24 can also slide on the placement surface 41 in the X direction. At this time, since the fixing member 32 fixes the shaft member 5, if the floor plate 2 continues to move horizontally in one X direction, the support member 24 comes into contact with the fixing member 32, and the floor plate 2 extends further in that direction. The horizontal movement of is limited. Thereby, the floor board 2 does not move too much in one X direction, and the support member 24 does not come off the shaft member 5. Further, the floor plate 2 can be prevented from falling downstairs.

  Furthermore, since the support member 24 can go around the side surface periphery of the shaft member 5, the front end portion of the floor board 2 can also be rotated in the Z direction with the support member 24 as a fulcrum. Even if a shift in the Z direction occurs in the buildings 3 and 4 due to an earthquake or the like and a shift occurs in the heights of the buildings 3 and 4, the floor plate 2 can be dealt with obliquely according to this. Further, in such a case, the step between the floor plate 2 and the mounting surface 41 or the step between the floor plate 2 and the flat surface 42 is covered by a step cover 7 provided so as to be rotatable up and down. Can make it easier for people and things to pass through. Further, when the positions of the buildings 3 and 4 return to the normal state, the floor board 2 can also return to the original position without requiring a restoration work.

Further, when the buildings 3 and 4 are displaced in the Y direction due to an earthquake or the like and the gap 8 is narrowed, the front end of the floor board 2 slides in a direction approaching the flat surface 42, and the gap 43 is narrowed and the pipe 6 The guide surface 64 comes into contact. When the gap 8 is further narrowed, the front end portion of the floor plate 2 is rotated upward, the front end portion of the floor plate 2 slides on the guide surface 64 of the pipe 6, and the front end portion of the floor plate 2 is pushed up obliquely upward. As a result, the front end portion of the floor board 2 is placed on the pipe 6. Since the pipe 6 is made of stainless steel, it has high durability, and the sliding movement by the guide surface 64 is performed smoothly.
When the front end of the floor board 2 is placed on the pipe 6, the step cover 7 provided so as to be pivotable in the vertical direction rotates downward to cover the step between the floor board 2 and the flat surface 42. 2 and the flat surface 42 are reduced. Therefore, even if the gap 8 is narrowed, people and objects can easily pass over the floor board 2.
When the buildings 3 and 4 return to the regular arrangement, the front end portion of the floor board 2 rotates downward and is placed on the placement surface 41 again. At the same time, the tip 71 of the step cover 7 rotates upward to cover the gap 43 again. Thereby, the floor board 2, the level | step difference cover 7, the plane 33, and the flat surface 42 become a series of flat surfaces again.

[Second Embodiment]
The second embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4-6 is the figure which showed the mid-high-rise building to which the floor expansion joint 1 was applied. 4 is a top view of a medium-to-high-rise building to which the floor expansion joint 1 is applied, FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VV shown in FIG. 4, and FIG. 6 is taken along line VI-VI shown in FIG. It is sectional drawing. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected about the part same as 1st Embodiment.

  A flat rectangular floor board 2 is bridged between the building 3 and the building 4, and plate-like handrails 9 are attached to both side edges of the upper surface of the floor board 2. Accordingly, the handrail 9 can move in the X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction together with the floor board 2. The handrail 9 is made of aluminum or other metal. By providing the handrail 9, it is possible to prevent a person or an object from passing over the floor board 2 from falling.

  A side surface 31 of the building 3 forming the gap 8 is an outer wall surface of the building 3, and an opening 34 is formed in the side surface 31. The fixture 32 and the shaft member 5 are attached to the side surface 31 below the opening 34. Further, the lateral width of the opening 34 is formed to be slightly wider than the width of the floor board 2, and the height of the opening 34 is formed to be high enough for people and things to pass through. Therefore, people and objects can move between the outside and the inside of the building 3 through the opening 34.

  An opening 48 and an extending portion 46 are provided on a side surface 47 that forms the outer wall surface of the building 4. The opening 48 is formed to be large enough for people and things to pass through. The extending portion 46 extends substantially perpendicularly to the side surface 47 from below the opening 48. A mounting surface 41 and a flat surface 42 are formed on the upper surface of the extending portion 46, and a person and an object can go back and forth between the inside of the building 4 and the flat surface 42 through the opening 48. The mounting surface 41 and the flat surface 42 are formed wider than the floor plate 2, and side walls 45 are provided on both side edges of the mounting surface 41 and the flat surface 42. Therefore, the horizontal movement of the floor board 2 in the X direction is limited by the floor board 2 coming into contact with the side wall 45. The side wall 45 prevents a person or an object passing over the placement surface 41 and the flat surface 42 from falling.

The movement of the floor expansion joint 1 according to this embodiment will be described.
Since the front end portion of the floor board 2 is placed on the placement surface 41 and side walls 45 are provided on both side edges of the placement surface 41, the floor board 2 cannot freely move in the X direction. However, since the support member 24 provided at the rear end of the floor board 2 is slidably attached to the shaft member 5, the floor 3 can be moved even if the arrangement of the buildings 3 and 4 is shifted in the X direction. The expansion joint 1 is not damaged.
Further, since the shaft member 5 having a circular section is held by the support member 24, the floor board 2 can be rotated in the Z direction with the support member 24 as a fulcrum, and the arrangement of the buildings 3 and 4 is shifted in the Z direction. It can cope with the case. Moreover, since the handrail 9 is provided substantially perpendicularly to the upper surface of the floor board 2, it does not hinder the rotation of the floor board 2 in the Z direction.
Further, since the pipe 6 is provided at the level difference between the mounting surface 41 and the flat surface 42, the floor board 2 can be used even when the arrangement of the buildings 3 and 4 approaches each other and the gap 8 is narrowed. This can be dealt with by the front end portion of the vehicle running on the flat surface 42 along the guide surface 64.

According to the above invention, in the floor expansion joint that connects two buildings, since the connection of the floor plate can correspond to the movement in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, the floor plate and its connection even in an earthquake with a large shaking Means are not damaged or fall downstairs.
In the present embodiment, the support member is provided on the floor board and the shaft member is provided on one building. On the contrary, the support member is provided on one building and the shaft member is provided on the floor board. It may be provided.
