DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on embodiments with reference to the drawings. 1 to 3 are views for explaining an embodiment of a safety device for a fireproof shutter according to the present invention. FIG. 1A shows a state in which the fireproof shutter provided with the safety device of the present invention is slightly opened. The fireproof shutter includes a shutter curtain 2 in which a plurality of slats 1 are connected in the vertical direction.

As shown in FIGS. 1 (a) and 3 (a) and 3 (b), both ends of the slat 1 are slidably fitted in the concave grooves 4 of the pair of guide rails 3 having a concave cross section. And
Thereby, it is guided up and down and moves up and down. As shown in FIG. 1B, a seat plate 6 is fixed to the lowermost slat 5 along its longitudinal direction with screws 7. Seat plate 6
Is shorter than the interval between the pair of guide rails 3.

In normal times, not during fires or inspections,
The fireproof shutter is open, and the shutter curtain 2 is wound into a shutter box 8 disposed above and is restrained by a brake so that the shutter curtain 2 does not descend. When checking the raising and lowering of the shutter during normal inspection, or when a fire occurs and the smoke is detected by a smoke detector or heat is detected by a heat detector, the restraint by the brake is released. The shutter curtain 2 is lowered by its own weight, and the fireproof shutter is closed.

[0012] Such configuration is a conventionally known structure fire shutter, the invention features a possible safety device may be attached to the structure of such a traditional fire shutter. This safety device includes a fire prevention slide plate 9 as a fire prevention auxiliary member attached to the lower end of the shutter curtain 2 and a stopper 10 fixed in the concave groove 4 of the pair of guide rails 3.

The fireproof slide plate 9 is formed by bending a single rectangular refractory metal plate into a U-shaped cross section, and has a bottom portion 11 and both side portions 12. The width in the longitudinal horizontal direction of the fire prevention slide plate 9 is formed to be slightly smaller than the interval between the pair of guide rails 3. On the other hand, the vertical width of the fire prevention slide plate 9 is preferably as small as possible so as to be housed in the box 8, but a certain width is necessary in consideration of a safety prevention function described later. For example, it is formed in a width (for example, 30 cm) that does not cause any trouble even if a child is sandwiched.

At both ends of the slide plate 9 in the horizontal direction,
A long hole 13 penetrating each of the side portions 12 is formed in the up-down direction. As shown in FIG. 3, the fireproof slide plate 9 is
It is arranged so that the seat plate 6 is sandwiched between the both side portions 12,
The support rod 14 is passed through the long hole 13, and the fire prevention slide plate 9 is attached to the seat plate 6. At both ends of the support rod 14, retaining heads 15 are fixed. Of course, it may be attached with a bolt and a nut instead of the support rod.

The support rod 14 is a slot 1 of the fire prevention slide plate 9.
3 is mounted so as to be movable in FIG.
As shown in (b) and (c), the fire prevention slide plate 9 can slide vertically with respect to the seat plate 6 and the shutter curtain. As the material of the fire prevention slide plate 9, the same material as that of the slat 1 may be used, or a material having higher fire resistance may be used. Alternatively, a refractory material may be applied to or adhered to the fireproof slide plate 9.

In the groove 4 of the pair of guide rails 3, FIG.
As shown in (a) and (c), the stopper 10 is fixed by welding or fixing means such as a bolt. When the stopper 10 is attached by a bolt, a plurality of screw holes or long holes may be formed in the guide rail so that the attachment height can be adjusted. The height h of the mounting position from the installation surface S (the surface on which the guide rail is installed, for example, the floor surface of the building) to the upper surface of the stopper 10 is substantially equal to the vertical width of the fire prevention slide plate 9. I do. Both ends of the lowermost slat 5 descending from above are fitted with this stopper 1
Stops upon colliding with 0.

[0017] To describe the operation of the safety device of the fire shutter consisting configuration described above. In normal times other than during a fire or inspection, the fireproof shutter is housed in a manner that the shutter curtain 2 is wound up in the upper shutter box 8 and restrained from falling by a brake.

[0018] Now, inspection or fire occurs, or by malfunction, a signal for closing the fire shutter from entering the brake control apparatus, the shutter curtain 2 by solving the constraint by the brake is guided by the guide rails 3 And descend by its own weight. Then, both ends of the lowermost slat 5 collide with the stopper 10 in the guide rail 3 and stop.
In this state, as shown in FIG. 2A, the lowermost slat 5 of the shutter curtain 2 is above the installation surface, but the fire prevention slide plate 9 abuts on the installation surface to close the slat 5 for fire prevention. Is performed.

By the way, for example, when the fire shutter is activated by the malfunction, when sandwiched between the fire protection shutter child like P is had directly below the fire shutter accidentally, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), the shutter The curtain 2 stops in a state before being closed by the stopper 10, and the fire prevention slide plate 9 slides upward with respect to the shutter curtain 2 by the sandwiched child and retreats, so that the gap is not completely closed and the gap is not completely closed. leave. This allows the child to close the fire protection shutter,
It is possible to avoid an accident without being completely sandwiched between the shutter curtains 2 and applying the load, and it is extremely safe.

The safety device according to the present invention has a very simple structure. The fire prevention slide plate 9 of the safety device is attached to the seat plate 6 of the fire shutter already installed, and the stopper 10 is fixed to the guide rail 3. With the simple work described above, accidents due to the fireproof shutter can be prevented, and the safety function can be exhibited extremely effectively.

In the embodiment , the stopper is provided in the middle of the guide rail. However, a rod extending upward from the installation surface may be mounted in the groove of the guide rail. When the fire prevention shutter is closed, the lower end of the shutter curtain should be stopped with a certain gap left.When the stopper is mounted, the stopper is attached to the upper side of the guide rail and to the outer surface of the side. A member that contacts the stopper may be attached to the upper slat instead of the lower slat.

As a modification of the embodiment of the present invention ,
Although not shown, if the shutter curtain itself is formed to have a length such that the lower end thereof does not come into contact with the installation surface when the shutter curtain is closed, a similar function is provided without providing a stopper. For example, a configuration in which about several slats are removed from the lowermost stage of the existing fireproof shutter, a seat plate is attached to the newly lowermost slat, and a fireproof slide may be attached to this.

[0023] Although the embodiments of the present invention has been describes the group Dzu <br/> to examples, without being limited to the embodiments described above, if it is within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, further Other embodiments are also included.
