Description

  The present invention relates to an outdoor blind for shielding solar radiation outdoors.

  It is known to provide an awning outside the building in order to efficiently block solar radiation entering the room. The awning provided on the window side can make a large shadow around the window, so that the solar radiation entering the room is effectively shielded. The interior can also be blindfolded by awning. As such an awning, a blind installed using a sash frame of a building is known. That is, a fixed bracket is fixed to each of a pair of left and right vertical frames of the sash frame, and a blind winding case is horizontally mounted between the upper ends of the columns fixed substantially vertically through these fixed brackets. Install the blinds around the window. And the sheet | seat material connected with the winding case so that winding and unwinding is possible is pulled out, and this is used as an awning (refer patent document 1).

  Some outdoor blinds that are commercially available have a winding case directly attached to the fixed bracket that is fixed to the sash frame instead of the support column.

  By the way, the fixed bracket is made of sheet metal and has a configuration including a plane portion and an engagement portion bent at a right angle from an end portion of the plane portion. The engagement portion is hit with a hammer or the like to engage with the sash frame. By joining, it is fixed to the sash frame. Thus, when a general user performs a construction method of hitting and engaging the sash frame with a hammer, there is a problem that a certain degree of arm force is required and it is very complicated. In addition, because it is a blind that is used outdoors, if it is used without sufficient engagement between the fixed bracket and the sash frame, it may be due to strong winds such as typhoons or external factors such as collision with objects. The fixing bracket may come off from the sash frame. For this reason, there is a problem that the blind attached to the fixing bracket may fall and be damaged, or the sash frame may be damaged.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an outdoor blind that is easy to construct and has no risk of damaging the blind and the sash frame. .

  In order to solve the above-described problems, according to the present invention, a bracket that is detachably attached to an outdoor installation, a blind support member that is fixed by the bracket, a support supported by the blind support member, a drawer, and An outdoor blind characterized by comprising a screen that can be stored.

  According to this invention, since the bracket is detachably attached to the outdoor installation object and the blind support member is fixed to the bracket, the construction is easy. Further, since the bracket is not engaged with the sash frame by hitting with a hammer or the like, there is no possibility that the bracket is detached from the sash frame and the blind is dropped and damaged, or the sash frame is damaged. Furthermore, since the bracket is detachable, it can be removed in a strong wind such as a typhoon. Thereby, a blind can be dealt with by a typhoon and a strong wind, without being damaged by a strong wind or being accidentally removed and thrown away. Furthermore, when it becomes unnecessary, it can be removed and put away.

  Moreover, according to this invention, the outdoor installation thing can be used as the clothes-drying basket which supports a clothes-drying basket or a clothes-drying basket. Thus, since it is only attached to the clothes-drying hardware or the clothes-drying basket supported by the clothes-drying hardware, construction is easy. Moreover, it is not necessary to prepare a special device for mounting an outdoor brand.

  The bracket may be provided with an insertion part through which the clothesline passes. Thereby, since a bracket can be constructed only by passing a clothes basket through the insertion part of the bracket, the installation of an outdoor blind is facilitated. In addition, since the engagement state between the bracket and the laundry basket is stable, the bracket is not accidentally detached from the laundry basket, and the blind does not fall and be damaged.

  At least one of the bracket or the blind support member may be provided with a movement preventing portion for preventing relative movement with respect to the outdoor installation object. Thereby, it can prevent that the blind for outdoor moves with respect to an outdoor installation thing with dead weight.

  Further, the screen may be selectively pulled out from the blind support member in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. As a result, the screen can be pulled out in the vertical direction and hung as it is, so that the window can be covered with the screen, so that the solar radiation entering the room can be effectively shielded or directed to the outside. Can prevent gaze from. On the other hand, it can be pulled out in the horizontal direction and used as it is in the horizontal state, or it can be locked to an outdoor installation such as a laundry basket without an outdoor blind installed in the vicinity of the outdoor installation. The part can be used in a horizontal state. This allows you to shade outdoors, dry the laundry under the horizontal screen to prevent the laundry from getting wet even if it rains, or prevent the line of sight being directed at the laundry or the room. Can do.

According to the present invention, since the bracket is detachably attached to the outdoor installation and the blind support member is fixed to the bracket, the construction is easy. Further, since the bracket is not engaged with the sash frame by hitting with a hammer or the like, there is no possibility that the bracket is detached from the sash frame and the blind is dropped and damaged, or the sash frame is damaged.
