DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, a tile panel 2 forming a bathroom 1 has an opening W so as to be aligned with an opening in an outer wall as in the conventional case. The reinforcing frame 3 attached to the four circumferences on the back side of the opening W of the tile panel 2 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape as in the related art. The tile panel 2 and the reinforcing frame 3 thus formed are connected by a flat mounting bracket 10.

[0008] As shown in FIG.
A main web 11 having a predetermined width and being formed to be short and capable of holding the tile panel 2 and the reinforcing frame 3, and having a threaded portion 13 at one end thereof at a predetermined interval. A mounting bolt 12 for mounting is formed and a mounting bolt 14 is screwed in, and an engaging mounting piece 15 having a substantially Z-shaped cross section is integrally formed at the other end, so that the flat mounting bracket 10 is It is formed in a substantially U-shape.

The connection frame 16 (see FIG. 8) is formed as follows. The left and right vertical frames 17 and the upper and lower frames 18 constituting the connection frame 16 are made of the same frame member formed by extruding a light alloy material such as aluminum or a synthetic resin material, and the cross-sectional shape of the frame member is as follows. Decorative edge 2
0 and a connecting piece 21 having a length (width) that is bent from one end of the decorative edge 20 and can be connected to the sash window frame side on the outdoor side.
And the decorative edge 20
A contact piece 22 having a substantially T-shaped cross section is formed along the longitudinal direction at the connection between the and the connection piece 21. Further, a locking piece 23 is formed in a folded shape at an end of the decorative edge 20.

Next, the mounting of the tile panel 2, the reinforcing frame 3, and the connecting frame 16 formed as described above will be described. First, the reinforcing frame 3 is abutted along the four circumferences of the opening W on the back side of the tile panel 2. In this state, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, the flat mounting bracket 10 is placed substantially at the center of the left and right vertical frames 3 a of the reinforcing frame 3 from the opening W side, and the tile panel is mounted between the mounting piece 12 and the engaging mounting piece 15. The tile panel 2 and the reinforcing frame 3 are tightened and fixed by sandwiching the reinforcing frame 2 and the reinforcing frame 3 and screwing the mounting bolts 14. In this state, an engagement groove 24 is formed between the tile 2b and the engagement mounting piece 15.

In the state where the tile panel 2 and the reinforcing frame 3 are connected via the flat mounting bracket 10 as described above, the tile panel 2
A connection frame 16 is mounted between the opening W of the sash frame and the sash frame. Prior to attaching the connection frame 16, an elastic member 25 made of, for example, synthetic rubber or synthetic resin is attached to the four circumferences of the opening W on the bathroom 1 side as illustrated. Thereafter, the connection frame 16 is inserted into the opening W, and the decorative frame 20 is inserted.
Is brought into contact with the elastic member 25. And as shown in FIG.
When the connection frame 16 is moved parallel to the tile panel 2 in the direction of the arrow in the illustrated state in the contact state, the elastic member 25 is elastically deformed as illustrated, and the contact piece 22 is brought into contact with the main web 11. In this state, the locking piece 23 formed in a folded shape on the decorative edge 20 is displaced to a position where it can be engaged with the engagement mounting piece 15.

In this state, when further pressed toward the tile panel 2 as shown in FIG. 4, the elastic member 25 is further deformed into a flat shape, and the locking piece 23 formed in a folded shape on the decorative edge 20 is flattened. It faces the engaging groove 24 formed between the mounting bracket 10 and the tile panel 2. In this state, as shown in FIG.
Is engaged with the engagement groove 24. In this engagement state, the locking piece 23
And the bottom of the engagement groove 24 have an interval h. The distance h is determined by the engagement mounting piece 15 of the flat mounting metal 10 on the opposite side.
And h that are sufficient to engage with the locking pieces 23 of the decorative edge 20.
In the same manner as described above, the opposite elastic member 25 can be pressed and deformed to engage the engagement mounting piece 15 of the opposite flat mounting bracket 10 with the locking piece 23 of the decorative rim 20, When the pressing force is released in this state, the connection frame 16 can be fixed by the restoring force of the elastic member 25.

The flat mounting bracket 1 having a substantially U-shaped cross section as described above.
0, the tile panel 2 and the reinforcing frame 3 are joined and connected by screwing the mounting bolts 14 from the inside of the opening W. Therefore, conventionally, the tile panel 2 is first installed and the opening is formed. In the case where the W is opened, even if an attempt is made to attach the reinforcing frame 3 to the pilot hole, the mounting to the pilot hole becomes a blind work, and it is difficult to attach the reinforcing frame. If there is a space between the outer frame and the outer frame, the reinforcing frame 3 can be easily attached, and the opening of the pilot hole is eliminated.

The connection frame 16 is attached by an outward engaging groove formed between the tile panel 2 and the engaging mounting piece 15 of the flat mounting bracket 10 connecting the tile panel 2 and the reinforcing frame 3. 24, the locking piece 23 formed in a folded shape at the end of the decorative edge 20 of the connection frame 16 is moved in the left-right direction by pressing and deforming the elastic members 25 attached to the four circumferences of the opening W on the bathroom 1 side. By the engagement, the connection frame 16 can be easily attached, and can be connected like a bay window with the sash window frame attached to the outer wall.
The work of screwing the 0 side to the reinforcing frame 3 can be omitted, and the connection frame 16 can be attached labor-saving.

[0015]

According to the present invention, as described above, it is possible to omit the work of preparing the lower hole for connecting to the tile panel and the reinforcing frame, and to connect the bathroom opening and the sash window frame on the outer wall side. Labor-saving connection is possible.
