DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fitting capable of stably attaching a plate-like member such as a light-transmitting plate or a ventilation gallery to an opening provided in a fitting body with good workability.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Fittings such as hinged doors and sliding doors, in which an opening is provided in a fitting body and a light-transmitting plate such as a glass plate or a plastic plate, a ventilation gallery is attached to the opening, have become widespread.

As such a fitting, the present inventor disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 10-72981 a rectangular frame-like member which holds the periphery of a plate-like member such as a light-transmitting plate or a ventilation gallery and surrounds the plate-like member. A fitting has been proposed in which a picture frame member is inserted into and attached to the opening of the fitting body.

The frame member in this proposal is formed by connecting vertical and horizontal frame members in a rectangular shape. The frame member attaches a plate-like member such as a glass plate, and has an opening in the fitting body. In order to insert the frame into the frame with good workability and accuracy, it is first premised that the frame should have a length such as a lateral width, an angle at each corner, and a correct rectangle. However, the above proposal does not suggest any means for achieving this accuracy.

[0005] On the other hand, it is known that a rectangular frame is angled at right angles by using an L-shaped bracket and the joining strength is improved.

[0006]

However, in the conventional L-shaped bracket, the vertical and horizontal frame members which intersect at right angles are brought into contact only within a small area of each corner portion to form an angle. It has been difficult to improve the overall rectangular accuracy due to the distortion of the frame material that tends to exist, and it has been difficult to increase the length of the frame material between corners.

According to the present invention, there is provided a U-shaped joint member in which a holding portion for holding the frame material along the other frame material is formed at both ends of a body along one entire length of a vertical or horizontal frame material. It is an object of the present invention to provide a fitting that enables the vertical or horizontal frame material to be extended as well as the angle in a rectangular frame and improves the shape and dimensional accuracy of the frame.

[0008]

According to the present invention, a plate-like member including a light-transmitting plate or a ventilation gallery is attached to an opening provided in a fitting body using a frame member surrounding the plate-like member. In a fitting, a frame member is formed by joining a vertical frame material and a horizontal frame material in a rectangular shape, and connecting the vertical frame material and the horizontal frame material to one full length of the vertical or horizontal frame material. It is a fitting characterized by being connected to both ends of a trunk portion along the other frame material by using a U-shaped joining member formed with a holding portion for holding the frame material along the other frame material.

The invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that the frame member is formed of a pair of frame frames that are fitted and engaged with each other by being inserted into the opening of the fitting body from opposite sides. The frame includes a vertical frame member and a horizontal frame member, each of which is joined in a rectangular shape, and the joining member engages with a claw-shaped portion formed in the frame member to form a vertical frame member and a horizontal frame member. The vertical frame member and the horizontal frame member are joined by joining the frame members or by inserting a locking fitting portion provided on the frame member for the fitting engagement of the pair of frame frames. I do.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the joining member protrudes from the body portion in a direction to be inserted prior to the opening and abuts on the inner peripheral surface of the opening to be held by the inner peripheral surface. And a plurality of protruding pieces having an inclined front end.

The receiving surface 53 of the receiving portion 53 of the
By locking the contact surface b of 7, the connecting member 25 is slidably held by the connecting member mounting portion 25 a so as not to fall off.
Further, a joint piece 59 is provided on the inner end of the first receiving piece 56.
Through the second receiving piece 60, a tip portion 61 having the barbed locking projection 13 having the contact surface b is formed.

The guide portion 52 is a sled-like body that guides the first frame 7 in contact with the inner peripheral surface 3A of the opening 3 when the first frame 7 is fitted into the opening 3. FIG. As shown, a plurality of locking pieces 54 are formed on the inner peripheral surface 3A side.

At the time of assembling into the fitting body 2, the rectangular first frame 7 on which the plate-like member 4 is mounted is angled and lengthened by the joining member 17 and firmly joined. It can be correctly inserted into the opening 3 of the main body 2.
At this time, the guide portion 52 is pushed in while being in contact with the inner peripheral surface 3A to guide, and the plurality of locking pieces 54 provided on the outer surface of the outer peripheral surface for preventing return are cut into the inner peripheral surface 3A, play is eliminated, and the opening is reduced. The part 2 can be attached by absorbing the formation error. This effectively prevents the first frame 7 from slipping off even when the fitting body 2 is turned over, and normally engages by turning over and pushing the second frame 9 through the other surface of the opening 3. The locking recess 14 is fitted and locked to the locking projection 13 so that both can be integrated and a fitting having the frame member 5 can be formed.

In the fitting of the present invention, a locking recess may be provided in the connecting member, and the frame may be connected without using the connecting member, or may be disposed in the opening as the frame member and appropriately supported. Various modes such as using one rectangular member that can be held by a tool can be adopted.

[0033]
