Description

  The present invention relates to a system for storing a plurality of glass units when a double skin glass unit made of an outer glass and an inner glass is used in an automobile showroom.

  In a store with a showroom that displays automobiles, the store surface is made of glass to improve visibility from outside the store. Glass-fronted stores have a sense of openness, and the brightness is taken in by natural light, so the use of lighting in the stores can be suppressed. It is also suitable for showing the natural colors of exhibits. However, glass-enclosed stores easily get heat in and out, and heat efficiency is poor in that heat is not effectively utilized to maintain the store at an appropriate temperature. Furthermore, in stores with poor thermal efficiency, the energy efficiency is also poor because the effect of the air conditioning equipment is weakened.

  Therefore, as described in Patent Document 1, by installing a glass unit made of double-glazed glass in which an air layer is provided between two plate glasses inside the existing glass, the appearance of the store An invention of an inner glass skin structure for a double glass skin that improves the thermal efficiency of a glass-walled store while maintaining the above is also disclosed. The glass unit prevents heat from entering and exiting the store with the use of double-glazed glass, and exhausts air in the air layer to the outside of the store during the hot summer months and takes it into the store during the cold winter months to effectively use the heat. I use it.

  Even if the thermal efficiency is improved by the glass unit, it is meaningless if the visibility of the store is hindered by the frame material of the glass unit. That is, it is preferable that the boundaries between the arranged glass units are difficult to understand and the presence of the glass unit itself is difficult to recognize. In the invention described in Patent Document 1, when the glass units are arranged side by side, the frame material is attached with a minimum size necessary for maintaining airtightness.

  In addition, although it is preferable in terms of safety that it is difficult to hang the glass unit from above, it is not possible to attach a member necessary for suspending with a small frame material. In addition, since the store receives a load when a heavy glass unit is suspended, the structural strength of the store itself is also required. Therefore, in the invention described in Patent Document 1, a glass unit having a small frame material is sandwiched and supported between the lower rail and the upper rail, and the load is received by the lower rail. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the frame material of the glass unit, and by increasing the proportion of the glass, the visibility of the store is improved and the exhibits are displayed beautifully.

  The glass unit, which has high thermal efficiency and high visibility, suppresses the influence of outside air, so it can be used in the vicinity of the glass unit in the same way as inside the store, but the glass unit installation itself reduces the effective space of the store. There is no change. For this reason, the glass unit is fully opened when the influence of outside air is small, such as in spring or autumn, or when it is desired to use a large space for an event or the like in a showroom. In addition, it is inconvenient if the glass unit is not opened during maintenance such as cleaning of existing glass.

  When the glass unit is fully opened, the glass unit is stacked and stored. By providing a door wheel on the lower surface of the glass unit, it is easy to move in the left-right direction along the lower rail. However, there is a problem in moving the glass units in the front-rear direction in order to stack the glass units in parallel. If the glass unit does not always move while keeping the vertical direction in the vertical direction, the glass unit may be tilted back and forth and fall down. Patent Document 2 also discloses an invention of an exhibition case provided with a drive mechanism that synchronously moves a rail on which glass is placed in a storage unit.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the glass storage mechanism 100 includes a plurality of glass units 200 including a door wheel for moving in the left-right direction on the lower side, and a lower rail 300 that supports the glass units 200 movably. An upper rail 301 that supports the glass unit 200 facing the lower rail 300, and a moving unit 600 in which the storage target glass unit of the glass unit 200 is cut out with the same horizontal width as the glass unit 200 of the upper and lower rails 300 and 301. A movable part 500 that sandwiches and moves the moving unit 600 in the front-rear direction, and upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 having the same width as the glass unit 200 in parallel with the upper and lower rails 300 and 301 at a position adjacent to the movable part 500 at regular intervals. A plurality of storage units 400 are provided. Note that the movable unit 500 moves the moving unit 600 to a position aligned with the empty rails of the upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 while keeping the storage target glass unit in a standing state in order to store the storage target glass unit in the storage unit 400. Move.

  In order to improve the thermal efficiency of the glass-covered store, the glass storage mechanism 100 has a plurality of glasses on the inner side of the existing outer glass 201 (outer glass) as shown in FIG. 3 (a) plan view and (c) side view. When the units 200 (inner glass) are arranged side by side (horizontal direction), the unit 200 (inner skin) is a mechanism for stacking and storing vertically (front and rear direction) (double skin). The glass unit 200 (outer glass) may be arranged outside the existing outer glass 201 (inner glass) (double skin), or the glass unit 200 is replaced with the outer glass 201 when a store is newly constructed or remodeled. May be installed (single skin).

  As shown in FIG. 1, the plurality of glass units 200 are sandwiched between the lower rail 300 and the upper rail 301 and are arranged flush with each other along the upper and lower rails 300 and 301. A lower storage unit 400 and an upper storage unit 401 are provided at the left end of the upper and lower rails 300 and 301 to create a storage area for the glass unit 200, and the lower movable unit 500 and the upper movable unit 501 are adjacent to the right of the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401. An area for sliding the glass unit 200 back and forth is created.

  As shown in the front view of FIG. 1 or FIG. 3 (b), a plurality of vertically long glass units 200 are prepared and arranged in the horizontal direction with respect to a glass opening surface that is widely opened horizontally. The glass unit 200 uses a double-glazed glass in which an air layer is provided between two sheet glasses having heat insulation properties, and includes a door wheel for moving in the left-right direction on the lower side. The air layer of the double-glazed glass may be filled with a gas other than air or may be in a vacuum state. Moreover, since the glass unit 200 is large and heavy, a single plate glass may be used instead of the double layer glass.

  Since the glass unit 200 is rigid and difficult to deform, it is not necessary to enclose the periphery of the glass unit 200 with a large frame material and seal the gap, and it is only necessary to attach a small frame material such as metal to the edge of the glass unit 200. . Even if the frame material of the glass unit 200 is made small, airtightness with the adjacent glass unit 200 can be obtained, and the boundary between the glass units 200 becomes difficult to understand, so that the visibility inside the store is also improved.

  In consideration of safety, the glass unit 200 is more difficult to fall when suspended from above, but the load of all the glass units 200 is applied to the store. Moreover, if the frame material of the glass unit 200 is small, a member for hanging cannot be attached. Therefore, the glass unit 200 is supported by being sandwiched between the upper and lower rails 300 and 301, and the load of the glass unit 200 is received on the lower side.

  As shown in the front view of FIG. 1 or FIG. 3B, the lower rail 300 is laid along the floor surface, which is the lower side of the glass opening surface. The lower rail 300 has a groove shape such as an open U-shape on the upper side, and a lower portion of the glass unit 200 is fitted therein. Similarly, the upper rail 301 is laid along the ceiling surface that is the upper side of the glass opening surface. The upper rail 301 has a groove shape such as a lower U-shape, and the upper portion of the glass unit 200 is fitted therein. The lower rail 300 and the upper rail 301 are opposed to each other on the side of the groove, so that there is no deviation in the front-rear direction or the front-rear direction so that the glass unit 200 is sandwiched from above and below so as not to be detached from the upper and lower rails 300 and 301. To support.

  Further, the glass unit 200 moves in the horizontal direction along the upper and lower rails 300 and 301 from the left end to the right end of the glass opening surface. Therefore, a door wheel 210 (see FIG. 5) for supporting movement is installed below the glass unit 200. The door pulley 210 is a pulley or the like for moving the glass unit 200 smoothly. The glass unit 200 freely moves on the lower rail 300 by the door cart 210. The upper and lower rails 300 and 301 support the glass unit 200 and serve as a travel path for the glass unit 200.

  The upper and lower storage units 400 and 401 and the upper and lower movable units 500 and 501 are provided so as to share a part of the upper and lower rails 300 and 301. Since the glass unit 200 is transferred between the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401 and the upper and lower movable units 500 and 501, the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401 and the upper and lower movable units 500 and 501 are adjacent to each other. Provided in position.

  The lower storage part 400 is provided on the end side of the lower rail 300, for example.

The lower storage rail 410 has the same shape as the lower rail 300 and is provided with a width of the glass unit 200 so that one glass unit 200 can be stored. Similarly, the upper storage portion 401 is provided on the end side of the upper rail 301, for example. In the upper storage portion 401, a plurality of upper storage rails 411 (see FIG. 6 or FIG. 7) are arranged at regular intervals in the front-rear direction in parallel with the upper rail 301. The upper storage rail 411 has the same shape as the upper rail 301 and is provided with a width of the glass unit 200 so that one glass unit 200 can be stored.

  The upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 are installed at least as many as the number of glass units 200 arranged on the glass opening surface. The lower storage rail 410 and the upper storage rail 411 corresponding to the lower storage rail 410 support the glass unit 200 from above and below without being displaced in the front or back direction. When the upper and lower storage portions 400 and 401 are arranged rearward on the left end side of the upper and lower rails 300 and 301, as shown in FIG. 4, the left end side of the upper and lower rails 300 and 301 is the uppermost upper and lower storage rail 410. The glass unit 200 on the left end side, which also serves as 411, is housed on the upper and lower rails 300 and 301.

  The lower movable unit 500 is provided on the side adjacent to the lower storage unit 400, for example. As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3 (a) plan view or FIG. 4, in the lower movable part 500, a part of the lower rail 300 is slid in the front-rear direction along the middle groove 510 and the left and right side grooves 511.

The control unit may be built in the vertically movable units 500 and 501, or may be controlled by another device. When the control unit is provided as a separate device, the control command may be issued by wire, or the control command may be transmitted / received by wireless communication.

  The processor is hardware that executes control instructions based on a control program. The processor sequentially reads control instructions from the control program stored in the memory and executes processing for housing the glass unit 200. As the control program is executed, data is input from other hardware or the like, and data is output to other hardware.

  The memory is hardware that temporarily or temporarily stores data that can be processed by the processor. A control program is recorded in the memory, and data necessary for execution of the control program is recorded. The memory is used as a work area when the control program is executed. The memory may be built in the processor or may be in the form of a removable recording medium.

  The I / O is hardware that inputs data to the processor or hardware that outputs data from the processor. An example of the input is a sensor for confirming the position of the glass unit 200. As an example of output, there is a moving unit 600 that slides the glass unit 200 in the front-rear direction. Data may be transmitted and received between the I / O and the processor by wire or wireless.

  As shown in FIG. 8A, the procedure executed by the control unit when the glass unit 200 is stored in the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401 from the state where the glass unit 200 is disposed on the glass opening surface will be described. . In addition, when the cover 450 is covered on the lower storage unit 400 and the lower movable unit 500 other than during storage, the cover 450 is removed to expose the lower storage unit 400 and the lower movable unit 500. Further, in order to specify the empty rails of the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401, the interval between the upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 is stored in the memory in advance.

  As shown in FIG. 8 (b), since the lower storage part 400 is provided at the left end of the lower rail 300, the glass unit 200 disposed at the left end of the lower rail 300 is stored in the same position. . The lower movable unit 500 is provided on the right side of the lower storage unit 400, and a portion of the lower rail 300 that supports the glass unit 200 disposed second from the left end is the moving unit 600.

  When an operator operates a button or the like provided on a wall surface in the store and the control unit receives an instruction to start storage, the control unit places the glass unit 200 on the moving unit 600. The glass unit 200 is fixed so that the glass unit 200 does not move in the left-right direction. Further, the control unit calculates the amount of movement of the moving unit 600 based on the interval stored in the memory, and moves the moving unit 600 back and forth to a position aligned with the second storage rail 410 from the front in the lower storage unit 400. Slide it in the direction. Then, the control unit causes the moving unit 600 to release the fixation of the glass unit 200.

  As shown in FIG. 8C, the operator manually moves the glass unit 200 on the moving unit 600 to the storage rail 410. The control unit confirms that the glass unit 200 is stored in the storage rail 410 by using a storage sensor or the like. Then, as illustrated in FIG. 8D, the control unit slides the moving unit 600 in the front-rear direction to a position aligned with the lower rail 300.

  As shown in FIG. 8E, the operator manually moves the glass unit 200 arranged third from the left end in the left-right direction and places it on the moving unit 600. As shown in FIG. 8 (f), the control unit confirms that the glass unit 200 is placed on the moving unit 600 by a mounting sensor or the like, and the glass unit 200 is moved to the moving unit 600 in the horizontal direction. It is fixed so that it does not move. Further, the control unit adds the moving amount of the moving unit 600 by the interval stored in the memory, thereby moving the moving unit 600 to a position aligned with the third storage rail 410 from the front in the lower storage unit 400. Slide to the front and rear. Then, the control unit causes the moving unit 600 to release the fixation of the glass unit 200.

  Next, the same procedure as in FIG. Thus, the above procedure is repeated to sequentially store all the glass units 200. In addition, as shown to Fig.9 (a), in the step which accommodates the 6th glass unit 200 in the lower accommodating part 400 from the state where ten glass units 200 were arrange | positioned at the glass opening surface, the glass unit 200 Are stored while being sequentially sent to the left, so the right five sheets are open. 9B, when the last tenth glass unit 200 is stored in the lower storage unit 400, all the glass units 200 are stored in the lower storage unit 400, and the glass opening surface is outside. Only glass 201 is provided.

  In the storage method, the movement of the glass unit 200 is manually performed by the operator in the left and right direction where movement is easy, and the control unit is electrically operated in the front and rear direction where movement is difficult. Note that a stepping motor or the like may be used for the operation of the moving unit 600 in the vertically movable parts 500 and 501. The control unit detects each time the glass unit 200 is stored in the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401 with a storage sensor, and sets the movement amount increased by a certain amount from the position where the glass unit 200 was stored last time. Control to move to the position of the empty rail.

  That is, the control unit only needs to increase the amount of movement of the moving unit 600 by the upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 each time the storage of the glass unit 200 is detected. Thereby, even if it is a plurality of large glass units 200, the operator only needs to move it in the left-right direction with the assistance of the door wheel 210. By automatically moving by 501, the glass unit 200 can be stored easily and safely.

  As mentioned above, although the Example of this invention was described, it is not limited to these. For example, in the vertically movable parts 500 and 501, the structure is not limited to the structure in which the electric slide device 520 is installed in the middle groove 510 and the slide device 521 is installed in the side groove 511. As shown in FIG. Instead, the electric slide device 520 may be installed in the side groove 511. That is, the number of grooves and whether or not to install the electric slide device 520 is arbitrary.

  In addition, when the control unit moves the moving unit 600 to a position that matches the empty upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 in the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401, the control unit is limited to a method of increasing the movement amount by a certain amount with a stepping motor or the like. It is not necessarily done. For example, the moving unit 600 may be moved in the front-rear direction while the empty position sensors 410 and 411 are sequentially checked with empty position sensors and moved to a position matching the empty rail.

  That is, the control unit grasps the interval between the upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 in advance in a memory or the like, and whether or not the glass unit 200 is stored in the upper and lower storage rails 410 and 411 adjacent to the moving unit 600. This is confirmed by the empty position sensor, and if the glass unit 200 exists, the moving unit 600 is repeatedly moved by the interval.

  As described above, the glass storage mechanism 100 can be stored in the upper and lower storage units 400 and 401 sequentially by moving the glass unit 200 that is difficult to move in the front-rear direction by the vertical movable units 500 and 501. Even the unit 200 is easy and safe. The movement of the glass unit 200 in the front-rear direction is assisted by the glass storage mechanism 100, thereby reducing the work burden on the operator and separating the storage function and the movable function so that the vertical movable part having the driving means is provided. Since the load of the glass unit 200 is not always applied to 500 and 501, the durability burden of the vertically movable parts 500 and 501 is reduced.

  The present invention can be applied not only to automobile showrooms but also to other showrooms. Moreover, it can be applied not only to a showroom but also to various buildings as long as it is glazed. By adopting a double skin structure composed of an inner glass and an outer glass, it is possible to change to a double skin or a single skin as required in consideration of space and visibility.
