Description

The present invention relates to vertical blinds.

As a conventional vertical blind, a louver is suspended from each of multiple carriers movably arranged within the head rail, and each carrier is equipped with a mechanism that transmits rotation around the vertical axis to the louver. When the louvers are rotated so that they are approximately parallel to the headrail (fully closed state), they are used to cover openings such as windows, and when all louvers are rotated so that they are approximately perpendicular to the headrail (fully open state). ) is known to release the opening.

On the other hand, there are also vertical blinds in which multiple louvers are suspended from one carrier. For example, in Patent Document 1 below, a large number of runners are supported on a hanger rail, slats are rotatably suspended from each runner, and the slats are suspended from a first hanging plate that is suspended and supported by the runners. It is disclosed that a first fabric is suspended and supported, and a second fabric is suspended and supported in a non-linear manner from a second hanging plate attached to at least one end of the first hanging plate. .

According to this, when the first fabric is made of light-shielding fabric, the second fabric is made of lace fabric, and the second hanging plate is attached to both ends of the first hanging plate, the first When the fabric is rotated in the direction along the hanger rail, the edges of the adjacent first fabric overlap, creating a light-blocking state. When the second fabric is rotated in the direction along the hanger rail, the edges of the adjacent first fabric overlap, creating a light-blocking state. The lace fabrics overlap in the front and back direction, creating a semi-transparent state that allows outside light to pass through the two lace fabrics.

However, in the technique described in Patent Document 1, the end of the second hanging plate is attached to at least one end of the first hanging plate, and the first hanging plate and the second hanging plate are connected to each other. The axis of connection with the hanging plate is offset from the axis of rotation of the slat, so when the slat is rotated, the rotation locus will deviate from the center line of the headrail to one side in the front or back, causing the slat to be on the indoor side or There was a problem in that the amount of protrusion toward the outside of the room became large.

In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide a vertical louver that can suspend a plurality of louvers with one carrier and equalize the amount of protrusion of the louvers in the front and back direction between the indoor side and the outdoor side. Our goal is to provide type blinds.

It has a plurality of louvers suspended through it. Each of the carriers has a suspension member rotatably connected to the shaft portion, each of which has a plurality of support portions from which the plurality of louvers can be suspended. The plurality of support parts support the plurality of louvers at different angles on both sides of the shaft part.

According to this configuration, in the hanging member, the supporting portion supports the plurality of louvers at different angles on both sides of the carrier shaft, so that the plurality of louvers are arranged on both sides of the shaft. , the amount of protrusion of the head rail in the front-rear direction when the louver rotates can be equalized between the indoor side and the outdoor side.

The plurality of louvers may include a first louver and a second louver. In this case, the plurality of support parts may support the center of gravity axes of the first louver and the second louver in their respective width directions.

The plurality of supporting parts may be provided such that one edge of the first louver and the other edge of the second louver are suspended in close proximity to each other.

According to this configuration, by minimizing the gap between the two louvers without connecting the first louver and the second louver to each other, light leakage from between the two louvers is reduced and when the louver is suspended. Improves work efficiency.

The plurality of supporting parts may be provided so that the first louver and the second louver can be suspended such that an included angle between the first louver and the second louver is approximately 90 degrees.

According to this configuration, by making the included angle between the first louver and the second louver approximately 90 degrees, by simply rotating the shaft portion of the carrier by 90 degrees in the axial direction of the rail, the first louver can be rotated with respect to the rail. It is possible to switch between a state in which the louvers are substantially parallel and a state in which the second louvers are substantially parallel to the rail. Furthermore, when the first louver and the second louver are made of different fabrics, it is possible to prevent the rear louver from being exposed from between the front louvers and deteriorating the design during the switching.

The plurality of support parts may include a first hook part that supports the first louver, and a second hook part that supports the second louver.

According to this configuration, by using the two hook parts as the supporting parts of the hanging member, hanging can be completed by simply hooking the louver to each hook part, so that the work required when hanging the first and second louvers is completed. You can improve your sexuality.

The first hook portion and the second hook portion may be formed to face directions different from each other by approximately 90 degrees.

According to this configuration, the included angle between the first louver and the second louver can be set to approximately 90° by simply suspending the first and second louvers from each hook portion of the hanging member.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to suspend a plurality of louvers with one carrier, and to equalize the amount of protrusion of the louvers in the front-rear direction between the indoor side and the outdoor side. However, this effect does not limit the present invention.

As shown in these figures, the vertical blind 100 according to the present embodiment includes a head rail 10 fixed to an opening such as a window frame by a bracket 9, and a plurality of head rails 10 that can be slid in the longitudinal direction. The carrier 12 has a first louver 14 and a second louver 15 suspended from each carrier 12 via a hanging member 13.

That is, each carrier 12 suspends two louvers, and as shown in FIGS. 4, 7, and 8, although details will be described later, the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are suspended from their edges. It is attached to the hanging member 13 so that the long sides (long sides) are close to each other and the included angle between their main surfaces is approximately 90 degrees (for example, 95 degrees in the case of this embodiment).

The first louver 14 is provided at the front (on the indoor side) of the vertical blind 100, and is made of, for example, opaque fabric such as drape fabric.

The second louver 15 is provided at the rear (outdoor side) of the vertical blind 100, and is made of see-through fabric such as lace fabric, for example.

A carrier moving mechanism for moving the carrier 12 and a louver rotation mechanism for integrally rotating the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are provided in the head rail 10.

The carrier moving mechanism has an opening/closing cord 18, as shown in FIGS. 1, 7, and 8. As shown in FIG. 1, one end of the opening/closing cord 18 is connected to the master carrier 12a, and the other end is guided inside the head rail 10 to the control unit 10a located at one end of the head rail 10, and the other end is guided to the control unit 10a at one end of the head rail 10. After being suspended from the head rail 10, it is turned and introduced into the head rail 10 again, and further guided to the end cover 10b at the other end of the head rail 10, and then turned at the end cover 10b, and the head rail 10 The master carrier 12a is connected to the master carrier 12a.

A portion of the opening/closing cord 18 that hangs down from the control unit 10a and is exposed functions as an opening/closing operation section 25 that rotates the first louver 14 and the second louver 15. A weight 27 is attached to the lower end (turning end) of the opening/closing operation section 25 .

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 8, the first carrier among the plurality of carriers 12 is a master carrier 12a. Adjacent carriers 12 are connected by spacer links 16 such that they can be separated from each other or approached each other with a predetermined interval determined by the length of the spacer link 16 as the maximum interval, with the master carrier 12a at the beginning.

When the user pulls one of the double portions of the opening/closing operation section 25, the master carrier 12a is pulled by the opening/closing cord 18 and moves to either side within the head rail 10. On the other hand, when the user pulls the other double portion of the opening/closing operation section 25, the master carrier 12a is pulled by the opening/closing cord 18 and moves within the head rail 10 to the other side.

As shown in FIG. 7, when the subsequent carriers 12 are pulled one after another via the spacer links 16 according to the movement of the master carrier 12a, the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 can be brought into an expanded state as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, when the master carrier 12a pushes out the carrier 12 by moving the master carrier 12a, the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 can be brought into a folded state as shown in FIG.

The louver rotation mechanism includes a drive shaft (tilt shaft) 24 that extends longitudinally within the head rail 10 and is rotatably supported, and a drive shaft (tilt shaft) 24 that is connected to the drive shaft 24 via a gear (not shown) disposed within the control unit 10a. It is composed of a rotary operation section (operation rod) 26 that is connected to the rotation operation section (operation rod). The rotation operation section 26 is suspended from the control unit 10a.

Each carrier 12 is provided with a rotation transmission mechanism that meshes with the drive shaft 24, and the rotation transmission mechanism transmits the rotation of the drive shaft 24 by the rotation operation section 26 to the carrier 12, and 2. The louvers 15 can be rotated.

The states shown in FIGS. 1, 5, 7, and 8 indicate a neutral state in which both the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 have an included angle of approximately 45 degrees with respect to the longitudinal direction of the headrail 10. .

On the other hand, FIG. 3 shows that the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 have rotated approximately 45 degrees counterclockwise in FIG. The figure shows a state in which the opening is closed (perpendicular to the rail 10). As described above, the first louver 14 is made of opaque material, so in this state, it is possible to prevent outside light from entering through the opening.

4 and 6, the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 rotate approximately 45 degrees clockwise in FIG. 7 from the neutral state, so that the second louver 15 becomes parallel to the head rail 10 (the first louver 14 This figure shows a state in which the opening is closed (perpendicular to the head rail 10). As described above, the second louver 15 is made of see-through fabric, so in this state, it is possible to take in outside light from the opening while maintaining a certain degree of privacy.

[Carrier configuration]
Next, details of the carrier 12 will be explained. FIG. 9 is a perspective view of the carrier 12, and FIG. 10 is a sectional view of the inside of the head rail 10 and the carrier 12 in the X direction. 9A and 10A show the neutral state (FIGS. 1, 5, 7, and 8) of the first louver 14 and the second louver 15, and FIGS. 9B and 10B show the neutral state of the first louver 14 and the second louver 15. The opening is shown in a closed state (FIGS. 4 and 6). 11 is a sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. 9, and FIG. 12 is a sectional view taken along line BB in FIG.

As shown in these figures, the carrier 12 incorporates a rotation transmission mechanism consisting of a worm 122, a worm wheel 123, and a friction spring 124 in a case, and has a vertical carrier shaft portion 121 at the bottom thereof. The suspension member 13 is connected to the carrier shaft portion 121 protruding from the lower end of the case so as to be integrally rotatable therewith. The hanging member 13 has an elongated shape, and is connected to the carrier shaft portion 12 so that tilting of the hanging member 13 in the longitudinal direction is permitted, but tilting in the lateral direction is restricted. Ru. A spacer 125 is interposed on the upper surface of the hanging member 13 so as to fill the clearance between the carrier 12 and the lower surface of the case, and the spacer 125 restricts upward movement of the hanging member 13.

At both ends of the hanging member 13, a first hook part 131 as a first support part and a second hook part 132 as a second support part are provided, from which the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 can be hung. have

That is, the first hook part 131 and the second hook part 132 support the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 on both sides of the hanging member 13 in the longitudinal direction with the carrier shaft part 121 as a boundary.

The first hook part 131 and the second hook part 132 are formed to face directions different from each other by about 90 degrees. As a result, as described above, the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 is approximately 90 degrees.

As a result, the hanging work can be completed by simply hooking the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 on the first hook part 131 and the second hook part 132, and the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 can be completed. can be set to approximately 90°.

In addition, by simply rotating the carrier shaft portion 121 by 90 degrees in the axial direction of the headrail 10, the first louver 14 becomes substantially parallel to the headrail 10, and the second louver 15 becomes substantially parallel to the headrail 10. It is possible to switch to a state in which the two states are approximately parallel to each other.

Additionally, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, only one louver is exposed at the front of the vertical blind 100 when the parallel state is switched, so the rear louver is exposed from between the front louvers, resulting in an undesirable design. It can prevent sexual deterioration.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 7, and 8, the first hook portion 131 and the second hook portion 132 support the center of gravity axes of the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 in the width direction, respectively. There is. As a result, the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are not cantilevered and are hung in a stable state.

Furthermore, as described above, the first hook part 131 and the second hook part 132 are suspended with one edge of the first louver 14 and the other edge of the second louver 15 in close proximity (see FIG. 7, Figure 8). This minimizes the gap between the two louvers, reduces light leakage from the gap, and improves workability when hanging the louvers.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the hanging member 13 is in contact with the bottom surface of the head rail 10 between the upper surface thereof and the head rail 10. It has two tilting suppressing parts 133 that can suppress the relative tilting of.

As shown in FIG. 9, in the present embodiment, the tilting suppressing portion 133 is formed as a chevron-shaped convex portion (projection) having an apex on the center line of the hanging member 13 in the width direction. The tilting suppressing portion 133 is integrally formed with the hanging member 13. Alternatively, the tilting suppressing portion 133 may be formed separately from the hanging member 13 by fitting or adhering using a material with a low coefficient of friction.

As described above, in this embodiment, the first louver 14 is made of drape fabric and the second louver 15 is made of lighter lace fabric, so when the hanging member 13 (louver) is rotated or moved, The hanging member 13 is likely to tilt due to the difference in balance. Further, there is a possibility that the hanging member 13 may tilt depending on the user's operating speed or other factors.

Here, the tilting angle of the hanging member 13 when rotating or moving becomes smaller as the clearance between the hanging member 13 and the head rail 10 becomes smaller. 10 will tend to come into contact with each other, increasing the resistance between the two, which may impede smooth rotation and movement.

Therefore, in this embodiment, a clearance is actively formed between the hanging member 13 and the head rail 10, and a tilting suppressing part 133 is provided between the two, so that the hanging member 13 does not tilt when rotating or moving. In this case, since the tilting suppressing portion 133 makes point contact with the bottom surface of the head rail 10, smooth rotation and movement of the hanging member 13 (louver) can be realized while suppressing the tilting.

The two tilting suppressing parts 133 are formed on both sides of the hanging member 13 in the longitudinal direction with the carrier shaft part 121 as a boundary. More specifically, each tilting suppressing portion 133 is formed slightly inside (on the side of the carrier shaft 121) an intermediate position between both ends of the hanging member 13 in FIG. 10A and the carrier shaft 121. Although the formation position of the tilting suppressing part 133 is not limited to this position, by providing it on the inner side on both sides of the carrier shaft part 121, it is possible to prevent the hanging member 13 from rotating or moving when the hanging member 13 is rotated or moved. No matter which direction the headrail 13 is inclined in the front-back direction of the headrail 10, the resistance between the headrail 10 and the headrail 10 can be further reduced while suppressing the tilting.

[Operation of vertical blinds]
Next, the operation of the vertical blind 100 configured as above will be explained. FIG. 13 is a schematic plan view showing the opening and closing operations of the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 of the vertical blind 100.

As shown in FIG. A, when the user pulls one cord of the opening/closing operation section 25 from the state where the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are folded, the master carrier 12a is pulled by the opening/closing cord 18. When the carrier 12 is moved inside the headrail 10, the following carriers 12 are pulled one after another via the spacer link 16, thereby moving the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 as shown in FIG. Can be expanded.

Furthermore, when the user rotates the rotation operation unit 26 in one direction from the unfolded state (and neutral state) shown in FIG. When viewed counterclockwise and rotated approximately 45 degrees, the first louver 14 on the indoor side becomes approximately parallel to the headrail 10, and the second louver 15 on the outdoor side becomes approximately perpendicular to the headrail 10. The opaque first louver 14 can cover an opening such as a window. At this time, a design is realized in which the second louvers 15 are not exposed between adjacent first louvers 14.

On the other hand, when the user rotates the rotation operation unit 26 in the other direction from the unfolded state (and neutral state) shown in FIG. When rotated clockwise by approximately 45 degrees, the first louver 14 on the indoor side becomes approximately perpendicular to the headrail 10, the second louver 15 on the outdoor side becomes approximately parallel to the headrail 10, and the half is rotated clockwise. The transparent second louver 15 allows outside light to be taken in through an opening such as a window.

[summary]
As explained above, according to the present embodiment, the first hook part 131 and the second hook part 132 at both ends of the hanging member 13 are connected to the first louver 14 and the second hook part 132 on both sides of the carrier shaft part 121. By instructing the louvers 15 so that their included angle is approximately 90 degrees, the louvers are arranged on both sides of the carrier shaft portion 121, and the amount of protrusion of the head rail 10 in the front-rear direction when the louvers rotate is reduced. can be made uniform between the indoor and outdoor sides.

Further, by providing a tilting suppressing portion 133 between the hanging member 13 and the head rail 10 to suppress relative tilting between the two, the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are Even if the hanging member 13 tends to tilt due to balance or the like, the tilting suppressing portion 133 suppresses the tilting, and smooth rotation and movement of the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 can be realized.

<Second embodiment>
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In this embodiment and subsequent embodiments, the same reference numerals are given to parts having the same functions as in the first embodiment.

FIG. 14 is a bottom perspective view of the carrier of the vertical blind according to this embodiment. Further, FIG. 15 is a side sectional view of the interior of the head rail of the vertical blind according to this embodiment.

In the first embodiment described above, the tilting suppressing portion 133 is formed on the upper surface of the hanging member 13. In contrast, in the present embodiment, as shown in both figures, the tilting suppressing portions 133 are provided on both sides of the bottom surface of the headrail 10 in the lateral direction (Z direction). It is formed as a parallel ridge.

As shown in FIG. 15, the position of the tilting suppressing part 133 in the width direction (Z direction) of the head rail 10 corresponds to the position of the tilting suppressing part 133 provided on the upper surface of the hanging member 13 in the first embodiment. are doing. Further, in this embodiment, the tilting suppressing portion 133 is formed integrally with the head rail 10. Instead, the tilting suppressing part 133 may be formed separately from the headrail 10 by welding, adhesion, etc., but in any case, it is formed from the same material as the headrail 10 (for example, a metal with a low coefficient of friction such as aluminum). be done.

By providing the tilting suppressing portion 133 on the bottom surface of the head rail 10 in this way, the tilting of the hanging member 13 when the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 rotate or move is suppressed, and the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are prevented from tilting. Smooth rotation and movement of the second louver 15 can be realized.

<Third embodiment>
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described.

FIG. 16 is a plan view of the louvers of the vertical blind according to the present embodiment in a neutrally expanded state. Further, FIG. 17 is a plan view of the vertical blind according to the present embodiment in a state where the opening is closed by the second louver of the louver.

In the first embodiment described above, the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 is approximately 90 degrees, but the included angle is not limited to 90 degrees, and may be an angle exceeding 90 degrees. . For example, in the vertical blind 200 according to the present embodiment, as shown in both figures, the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 is approximately 110 degrees. This is achieved by providing the first hook portion 131 and the second hook portion 132 facing in directions that differ by approximately 110 degrees.

When the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 are rotated approximately 70 degrees clockwise in plan view from the neutral state shown in FIG. 16 to the state shown in FIG. 17, the second louver 15 becomes approximately parallel to the head rail 10. Therefore, the semi-transparent second louver 15 allows outside light to be taken in through the opening.

At this time, since the first louver 14 is not perpendicular to the headrail but is inclined at an angle of approximately 20 degrees, the light taken in from the second louver 15 is biased toward one side of the indoor side. That is, by making the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 larger than 90 degrees, the light introduced into the room can be given some degree of directivity. With this, for example, when a plurality of users exist indoors, it becomes possible to take in or block external light depending on the position of the user.

<Combination of different types of louvers>
The vertical blind 100 according to the first embodiment described above and the vertical blind 200 according to the third embodiment described above can be appropriately selected and used depending on the position of the opening of one building.

FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an example of a combination of such a vertical blind 100 and a vertical blind 200.

As shown in the figure, among the plurality of openings O of the building, the vertical blind 100 (included angle of about 90 degrees) according to the first embodiment is installed in the opening Os located on the south side, and Vertical blinds 200 (included angle approximately 110 degrees) according to the third embodiment are installed in both openings Oe and Ow located on the west side.

As a result, when each of the vertical blinds 100 and 200 is rotated so that the second louver 15 is parallel to the opening O, sunlight Ss shines from directly above the opening Os on the south side during the daytime. is efficiently taken in, and sunlight Se and Sw that shine obliquely in the morning and evening hours are efficiently taken in from the opening Oe on the east side and the opening Ow on the west side along the diagonal first louver 14.

In this way, by using vertical blinds with different included angles of the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 depending on the direction, it is possible to increase the amount of daylight taken in.

<Modified example>
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and may be modified in various ways without departing from the gist of the present technology.

In the first and second embodiments described above, the first louver 14 is made of drape fabric and the second louver 15 is made of lace fabric, but other fabrics may be used.

In the embodiment described above, the opening/closing cord 18 provided in a loop shape inside the head rail 10 was used as the carrier moving mechanism for moving the carrier 12 to open and close the first louver 14 and the second louver 15. , Instead of this, an opening/closing shaft (screw shaft) passing through each carrier 12 may be used. In this case, a pulley around which a cord is wound as an opening/closing operation part is provided, and the master carrier 12a and the opening/closing shaft are screwed together, and as the opening/closing shaft rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the pulley, the master carrier 12a and the pulling shaft are pulled by the master carrier 12a and the opening/closing shaft. The other carrier 12 moves.

In each of the embodiments described above, the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 is set by the angle at which the first hook portion 131 and the second hook portion 132 are provided. Instead of this, for example, hook parts that can be rotated and fixed by 360 degrees around a vertical axis are provided at both ends of the hanging member 13, and the included angle between the first louver 14 and the second louver 15 is manually adjusted as appropriate. You may.

In the embodiment described above, two louvers are provided for one carrier 12 (hanging member 13). However, three or more louvers may be suspended from one carrier 12 (hanging member 13). For example, four louvers may be suspended from one carrier 12 so as to form a cross shape when viewed from above.

In the embodiment described above, the tilting suppressing portion 133 is formed as one protrusion. However, the tilting suppressing portion 133 may be formed, for example, as a plurality of convex portions arranged in a straight line. Further, the tilting suppressing portion 133 is not limited to a convex portion, and may be formed as a ball caster on the top surface of the hanging member 13 or the bottom surface of the head rail 10.
