Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2010-243692

However, the conventional private room usage status indicator 50 has a problem that it is difficult to recognize its use when the surroundings are dark.

In addition, although the private room is usually locked from the inside, it is often difficult to open the door inside because the user may fall into the private room due to a sudden change in physical condition or the like. In that case, it is necessary to unlock the door by operating from the outside and open the door to the outside of the room. On the other hand, if a display that shows the general usage status of a private room is provided on the hanging side of the door, it will be damaged when the door is opened to the outside of the room, so the mounting location is restricted. There was a problem.

The present invention has been made to solve each of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a private room usage status indicator which is easy to see and has no restrictions on mounting locations, and a mounting structure thereof.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has a plate-shaped display body having a translucent portion, a vertical support provided at one end of the display body, and at least one surface of the display body. The pasted body is provided with a sticker on which a display that can identify the usage status of the private room is formed, and the sticker has a light-transmitting region at least in a part thereof, and the light-transmitting body in the display body is provided. It is characterized in that at least a part of the transmitted light that has passed through the portion can be transmitted (transmitted) through the translucent region of the affix so that the usage status of the private room can be identified. It provides a private room usage status indicator (hereinafter, may be referred to as "this indicator").

Further, in this display tool, it is preferable that the sticker can be attached and peeled off so that the display for identifying the desired usage status of the private room can be changed in a timely and easy manner.

Here, the display body needs to have a light-transmitting portion at least in a part thereof, and the shape, dimensions, number, and the like of the light-transmitting portion can be appropriately determined so as to fulfill its purpose. For example, as the translucent portion, a plurality of through holes may be provided, or a region having a translucent performance of any shape that is continuous or discontinuous can be provided. In addition, there are no restrictions on the shape and material of the display body.

In addition, the sticker is formed with a display that identifies the usage status of the private room, and various configurations can be used as long as the display can be recognized by combining the background, shape, color, and the like.
For example, by adding characters, colors, figures or pictograms, or a combination thereof, it can be formed so that the usage state of the private room can be identified. As will be described later, depending on the usage mode of this display, a display indicating that it is not in use (display of "vacant room" or "blue", etc.) or a display indicating that it is in use ("in use" or "red"). , Etc.), marks indicating the existence of toilets (“male”, “female”, “marks combining toilet seats and users”, etc.) can be displayed.

Further, the affixed body may be provided with at least a part having a region having a translucent performance of an arbitrary shape which is continuous or discontinuous, and the whole may be regarded as a translucent region by different colors. Or, it may be one in which a region having light-shielding performance is partially provided.
The translucent portion of the display body and the translucent region of the affixed body need not be purely transparent as long as the object existing on the opposite surface of the object can be transmitted and recognized. Absent.

Further, the sticking body may be stuck on at least one surface of the plate-shaped body, but if it is stuck on both sides, the usage status can be visually recognized from a plurality of directions, and the sticking body is provided in a place having a plurality of entrances. It is suitable because it can be applied to a private room.

Further, at least a part of the transmitted light that has passed through the translucent portion of the display body is configured to be able to pass through the translucent region of the affixed body so that the display that can identify the usage status of the private room can be recognized. In particular, it is necessary that the outer edge of the translucent part of the display body has a shape that matches the outline part of the display that identifies the usage status of the private room displayed on the affixed body. It is suitable for enhancing, and can be easily realized if the translucent portion of the display body is formed as an aggregate of a large number of small holes.

According to this display tool, the display body has a translucent part, and a sticker indicating a display for identifying the usage status of the private room is attached to the display body, and the sticker has a translucent area. ing. Then, the transmitted light transmitted through the translucent portion of the display body is transmitted through the translucent region of the affixed body, so that the transmitted light has an effect of irradiating the affixed body. As described above, the presence of the translucent portion of the display body makes it possible to clearly identify the usage status of the private toilet room, and the simple structure makes it possible to obtain a display tool that is easy to see at low cost.

Further, the present invention includes a compartment for defining a private room, and a door rotatably attached to the compartment by allowing one end thereof to be rotatably supported in both the inner and outer directions with respect to the compartment. With respect to the private room provided with the above, the display device has a mounting structure for mounting the display device, and the display body is rotatably mounted around the support on the outer surface of the door with respect to the private room. The present invention provides a mounting structure for a private room usage status indicator (hereinafter, may be referred to as a “main mounting structure”).

Here, the partition body in which the private room is defined is a structure provided for forming the private room from the open space, and known members such as panel boards and wall materials can be used. In addition, there are no restrictions on the shape, arrangement mode, number, and the like.

Further, the attachment point of the display tool to the door is not limited as long as it protrudes to the outer surface with respect to the private room, and can be appropriately determined in the partition body constituting the private room and the installation mode of the door. In addition, there are no restrictions on the mounting method. However, it is necessary to appropriately display the display unit indicating when the door is open (when the room is vacant) and when the door is closed (when the private room is used), depending on the location where the display tool is attached to the door. For example, when the display body of this display is mounted parallel to the surface of the door, "vacancy" is displayed on the display body, and when it is mounted perpendicular to the surface of the door. , It is necessary to display "in use" on the display body.

Further, in order to form the display body so as to be rotatable, any means (rotating means) that follows the movement of the attached door and realizes the rotating operation around the rotating shaft (support shaft). ) Can be used.

According to this mounting structure, since the display body is rotatably mounted on the outside of the door with respect to the private room, the door is suspended when it becomes necessary to open the door to the outside in an emergency or the like. Even when the display tool is attached to the original side, the display body can be rotated to follow the rotation operation of the door by rotating the display body around the support. .. Therefore, even if it is attached to an arbitrary location, it will not be damaged and the attachment location will not be restricted. Therefore, by displaying the used state of the private room and the used state or the non-used state corresponding to the position of the door, it is possible to easily identify the used state of the private room with a simple and inexpensive structure.

If the display body rotating means and the rotating state returning means are provided in this mounting structure, the position of the display body can be manually changed when the door is released to the outdoor side and when the door is returned to the current state. It is suitable because the complicated work of the above can be omitted.

Here, the rotating state returning means of the mounting body may be any means for realizing a rotating operation for returning (returning) the display body to the initial position where the rotation is started, for example, a leaf spring or a coil. It can be configured by a mechanism that utilizes the urging force of a spring or other elastic body, the repulsive force of the magnetic force of a magnet, or the like.

Further, in the present mounting structure, if the present display tool is provided with a positioning means for provisionally positioning the angle of the display body with respect to the door, it is not highly necessary to open the door to the outdoor side. When this indicator is attached to a private room, it is preferable because the degree of fixation of the private room usage status indicator can be improved.

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a private room usage status indicator and a mounting structure thereof that are easy to see and have no restrictions on mounting locations.

[overall structure]
As shown in FIG. 1, the application target of this mounting structure K (private room usage status indicator) is a toilet private room S in which an open space having a certain size and no partition is partitioned as a plurality of private rooms. ..
That is, in the entire space partitioned by the wall bodies W1 and W2 (compartment bodies), entrances and exits E are formed in the upper and lower central portions facing each other, and passages R are formed between the entrances and exits E. A plurality of private toilet rooms S are arranged facing the passage R (Note that in the following description, the term "private toilet room" is used when the description corresponding to the private room in the claims is given. However, when giving a general description of a place where the toilet bowl Z is provided, it is simply referred to as a "toilet").

Each toilet private room S includes a wall body W1 parallel to the passage R, one or two side panels Y (compartment body) perpendicular to the passage R, or a wall body W2 perpendicular to the passage R. The front panel F1 and the mounting panel F2 (compartment body) parallel to the passage R, and the door D form a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the toilet bowl Z is arranged inside the rectangular parallelepiped shape.

Further, it is desirable that the door D is accommodated inside the toilet private room S when the toilet private room S is vacant (when not in use), and this embodiment also assumes such a configuration. It is supposed to be.

Further, the door D can be locked and unlocked from the side of the private toilet room S, and can be unlocked from the passage R (outside of the private toilet room S) in an emergency.

[First Embodiment of Private Room Usage Status Indicator and Its Mounting Structure]
The display tool 1 of the first embodiment includes a display unit 11 made of transparent resin, a display plate 10 having a rotation support portion 15 provided at one end of the display portion 11, and an attachment portion 20 to the door D. (Figs. 2 to 4).

The display unit 11 is a rectangular white thin plate material, and has a plurality of round through small holes 11a on the entire surface on both sides. The through-small hole 11a constitutes a light-transmitting portion, and a portion other than the through-small hole 11a constitutes a light-shielding portion. A film sheet-like display sticker H (paste body) on which the same design is described is attached to both sides of the display unit 11 so that it can be attached and peeled off and can be easily replaced. ..

The design has a substantially square blue-colored portion H1 (translucent region) colored in blue to indicate that it is vacant (not used), and an unused state. It is composed of a transparent portion H2 (translucent region) in which the design with the lid open is described as transparent. By displaying this design, it is possible to recognize that the toilet private room S is vacant (not used), and by combining the blue-colored part H1 and the transparent part H2, the toilet private room S is vacant (not used) as a visual image. ), Which is a display that can be identified at a glance. In the present embodiment, each of the blue-colored portion H1 and the transparent portion H2 has a translucent performance.

A display sticker H is attached to both sides of the display unit 11 of the display plate 10 so that the designs overlap each other at the same position, and the transmitted light transmitted through the small through hole 11a of the display unit 11 causes the display sticker H. It is transparent.
Since the display unit 11 is formed with a large number of small through-holes 11a having a small hole diameter, the contour of the transparent portion H2 of the display sticker H and the corresponding small through-holes 11a in the vicinity of the contour substantially coincide with each other. It becomes a position, and the visibility of the transparent portion H2 of the display sticker H can be improved.

Because of this configuration, when the door D is stored inside the toilet private room S, a user who enters the passage R from the entrance E in both the left and right directions can enter the toilet private room S from either direction. Can be visually recognized as not being used (details will be described later).

The rotation support portion 15 is formed in a substantially semi-cylindrical shape so that rotation can be easily performed, and the display portion 11 is provided in a direction perpendicular to the chord of the semi-circular portion. The rotation support portion 15 is formed of a protruding end portion 16 at both upper and lower ends in the vertical direction and a central portion 17. First insertion holes 16a of the support protrusions 31 are formed in the upper and lower protruding end portions 16.

The central portion 17 is formed in an elongated substantially cross shape (side view from a direction perpendicular to the display portion 11 in FIG. 2), and four recesses are formed on the upper and lower sides and on both sides. The pair of recesses in the vertical direction are formed in the same shape, but the shapes of the recesses in the horizontal direction are different. For the sake of explanation, the concave portion on the tip end side of the curved surface portion of the rotating support portion 15 is referred to as a first concave portion 18.

The cross section of the central portion 17 with respect to the vertical direction is formed in a shape similar to a pistol shape (J-shape) (FIG. 3 (b)). The cross section having a substantially pistol shape is formed of a protruding portion 17b protruding in the tip direction and a base end portion 17c corresponding to a grip portion following the protruding portion 17b. The base end portion 17c includes an arc portion 17d having an outer circumference of 90 degrees and an inner stepped portion 17e, and the length of the protruding portion 17b is about twice the radius of the portion forming the arc portion 17d. (In the portion formed in a substantially pistol shape, the stepped portion 17e and the inner peripheral edge portion of the protruding portion 17b in contact with the stepped portion 17e are referred to as "inner side surface portion 17a"). The protrusion 17b is formed to have substantially the same length as the depth length of the storage space of the mounting portion 20, and the midpoint of the protrusion 17b is the rotation center of the rotation support portion 15 (support protrusion 31 described later). Position).

(Mounting part)
The mounting portion 20 includes a mounting body 21, a thin leaf spring 25, and an angle fixing plate 27 (positioning means).

One side of the rectangular parallelepiped mounting body 21 is open, and a receiving space for the rotation support portion 15 of the display portion 11 is formed inside. That is, accommodating end portions 22 for accommodating the protruding end portions 16 of the rotation support portion 15 are formed at the upper and lower ends of the mounting body 21, and springs are formed between the accommodating end portions 22. A fitting portion 23 is provided.

The space forming the accommodating end 22 is formed in a shape corresponding to a semi-cylinder which is the shape of the protruding end 16.
Further, a second insertion hole 21a of the support projection 31 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the mounting body 21, and a mounting hole for the door D is provided on the side surface of the mounting body 21 facing the open surface (FIG. (Not shown) are formed (three places in this embodiment).

The thin leaf spring 25 has a substantially V shape, and the central portion is attached to the intermediate position of the spring fitting portion 23. Then, each end portion is arranged so as to be in contact with the inner side surface portion 17a of the rotation support portion 15, and can operate by following the movement of the rotation support portion 15 toward and away from the door D. ..

The thin leaf spring 25 is attached to the spring fitting portion 23 so that an urging force (restoring force) acts in the direction of pressing the rotation support portion 15 of the display plate 10.
Further, the rotation support portion 15 of the display plate 10 is fitted into the receiving space of the mounting portion 20, and the positions of the first insertion hole 16a of the rotation support portion 15 and the second insertion hole 21a of the mounting body 21 are aligned in the vertical and vertical directions. In this state, the support protrusion 31 which is a support shaft is inserted into the shaft, so that the rotation support portion 15 is rotatably supported.

According to the mode of the rotation support portion 15 and the mounting body 21, a rotation means for rotating the display portion 11 around the support projection 31 in the vertical direction is configured (in the present embodiment, within a range of 90 degrees). It is rotatable). Further, when the display unit 11 rotates, the thin leaf spring 25 rotates in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation by applying an urging force to the inner side surface portion 17a of the rotation support portion 15. Will return to the current position before rotation, and will operate as a rotation return means for that purpose.

The angle fixing plate 27 is a member provided as needed, and is a thin plate-shaped member for provisionally positioning the angle of the display plate 10 with respect to the door D. The angle fixing plate 27 is formed in a shape capable of closing the opening portion in the vertical direction of the mounting body 21, and the locking piece 27a is a locking receiver formed on the accommodating end portion 22 of the mounting body 21. By engaging with a tool (not shown), the open portion can be freely fitted and detached (so that it can be easily attached and detached).

In the present embodiment, the angle fixing plate 27 is attached in the normal state, and when the door D is rotated outward, the display portion 11 of the display plate 10 is rotated by removing the angle fixing plate 27. It is possible.

(Mounting structure of private room usage status indicator)
The mounting structure K (first embodiment) is screwed into the mounting hole of the mounting portion 20 of the display tool 1 (reference numeral 32 indicates a screw) to the upper edge end of the hanging source of the door D. It is attached. At that time, the display unit 11 of the display plate 10 is arranged so as to be horizontal to the surface of the door D and project from the end of the door D in the direction of the mounting panel F2 on the adjacent toilet private room S side. Has been done.

[Operation of private room usage status indicator]
Subsequently, the operation of the display tool 1 will be described. In the following description, it is premised that the display tool 1 is already attached to the door D (Note that FIGS. 5 to 8 are views of the door D and the like viewed from the upper side of the paper surface of FIG. is there).

(Vacancy)
When the toilet private room S is vacant (when not in use), the door D is usually housed inside the toilet private room S, and the display portion 11 of the display board 10 is provided so as to project from the end of the door D. Has been done. Therefore, the display unit 11 projects in a direction substantially perpendicular to the outer surface of the door D, and the in-use display can be visually recognized from both sides. As a result, the user can immediately recognize from the outside that the private toilet room S is vacant (FIGS. 5 and 6).

(while using it)
When the private toilet room S is used, the door D is closed, and the display portion 11 of the display board 10 is parallel to the door D. At this time, since the display of the display unit 11 is inconspicuous from the outside and the door D is not opened, the user can recognize that the toilet private room S is in use (FIG. 7).

(In case of emergency response)
When it is necessary to open the door D to the passage R side (outside of the private toilet room S) in an emergency response such as an emergency, first, the door is unlocked from the passage R side by a predetermined method. Subsequently, the door D is opened to the passage R side.

At this time, since the display portion 11 of the display plate 10 is provided so as to project from the end portion of the door D, the tip end of the display portion 11 comes into contact with the mounting panel F2. Then, in this state, when the tip of the door D is rotated and the door D is opened, the support projection 31 of the mounting portion 20 is used as the rotation axis while the tip of the display portion 11 is in contact with the mounting panel F2. , The operation that follows the rotation of the door D will be performed (FIG. 8).

9 (a) to 9 (c) are cross-sectional views of a portion corresponding to the AA cross section of FIG. 3 when the door D is opened to the passage R side from the time when the toilet private room S is used. The above-mentioned rotating state will be supplementarily described with reference to.

First, when the toilet private room S is used, the inner side surface portion 17a of the central portion 17 of the display tool 1 is in contact with the thin leaf spring 25 of the mounting portion 20 (FIG. 9A).

When the door D is gradually opened to the passage R side, the tip of the display portion 11 of the display tool 1 comes into contact with the adjacent mounting panel F2 (FIG. 9B), and the stepped portion in the central portion 17 While the tip portion of 17e presses the thin leaf spring 25, the rotation support portion 15 rotates in the range of 0 to 90 degrees (FIG. 9 (c) shows a case where the rotation support portion 15 is rotated by about 70 degrees).
At this time, since the tip of the display portion 11 of the display tool 1 is in contact with the adjacent mounting panel F2 and the thin leaf spring 25 is pressed toward the door D, the thin leaf spring 25 is not attached to the thin leaf spring 25. Restoring force is stored in the direction away from the door D.

After that, when the door D is returned to the original state of use, the door D is rotated in the opposite direction to that when the door D is opened. As described above, the restoring force acts on the thin leaf spring 25 in a direction away from the door D, and the contact force of the mounting panel F2 at the tip of the display portion 11 of the display tool 1 decreases as the thin leaf spring 25 rotates. Therefore, the restoring force is superior to the contact force, and the thin leaf spring 25 presses the tip portion of the stepped portion 17e in the central portion 17, and the central portion 17 rotates in the opposite direction to the above. The display unit 11 of the display board 10 is restored to the position at the time of use (the rotation restoration means operates) (FIG. 9 (c) → FIG. 9 (b) → FIG. 9 (a)).

[Effects of this display and this mounting structure]
According to the present display tool 1, the display unit 11 has a plurality of small through holes 11a, and a display sticker H indicating a display for identifying the usage status of the private toilet room S is attached to the display unit 11. The display sticker H is formed with a display that identifies the usage status of the private toilet room S by the combination of the transparent portion H2 having the translucent performance and the blue coloring portion H1. Therefore, the transmitted light transmitted through one of the transparent portions H2 and the blue-colored portion H1 transmits through the through small hole 11a, and the other transparent portion H2 and the blue-colored portion H1 are transmitted through the transparent small hole 11a. The effect of illuminating the display occurs. Therefore, the presence of the through-small hole 11a makes it possible to clearly identify the usage status of the toilet private room S, and the simple structure makes it possible to provide a display tool that is easy to see at low cost.

Further, the display unit 11 of the display board 10 has display stickers H attached to both sides thereof, and when the door D is housed inside the private toilet room S, the display unit 11 enters the passage R from the entrances E in both the left and right directions. The user can visually recognize that the private toilet room S is not used from any direction.
Further, the display sticker H can be freely attached and peeled off, and can be replaced with a desired design in a timely and easy manner.

Further, according to the mounting structure K, the display portion 11 of the display tool 1 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the door D on the passage R side. Therefore, when it becomes necessary to open the door D to the passage R side in an emergency or the like, the door D is rotated by rotating the display unit 11 around the rotation support portion 15 of the display plate 10. This can be achieved by rotating the display unit 11 so as to follow the moving motion.

Further, according to the present mounting structure K, the mounting portion 20 of the present display tool 1 includes a thin leaf spring 25, and constitutes a rotating means and a rotating state returning means together with the rotating support portion 15 of the display plate 10. Therefore, it is possible to omit complicated work such as manually changing the position of the display unit 11 when the door D is released to the passage R side and when the door D is restored to the current state.

Further, according to the present mounting structure K, since the angle fixing plate 27 is provided so as to be removable, the angle fixing plate 27 is mounted when it is not highly necessary to open the door D to the passage R side. As a result, the degree of fixation of the display tool 1 can be improved by tentatively positioning the angle of the display plate 10 with respect to the door D.

As described above, according to the mounting structure K, the display tool 1 can be provided at an arbitrary mounting location. In addition, since the display tool 1 can be easily configured, the number of parts can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[Second Embodiment of this private room usage status indicator and its mounting structure]
