Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a movable door stop for a shoji screen, and more particularly to a movable door stop that can be suitably used as a movable door stop with an upper frame for a sliding door that can be moved from side to side when translated indoors.

For example, in the sliding door mentioned above, the door stop with the upper frame was previously fixed, so it only slides in one direction, so when cleaning the glass from the inside, it is necessary to move the shoji in the opposite direction. At that time, the drawback was that the door stop had to be completely removed. Therefore, in reality, a sliding door that can move in both left and right directions has not been realized.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a movable door stop that takes up a minimum amount of space and allows switching between door stops with simple operation.

The feature of the present invention is that a latch is slidably provided on the door stop that is pivotally fixed to the upper frame, and a latch receiver is installed in the upper frame at a position opposite to the latch, and the door stop is pivoted upward to release the latch. The shoji can be stopped by engaging with the latch receiver, and the shoji can be moved by disengaging the latch.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Figures 1 and 2 show an example in which the movable door stop of the present invention is used for a sliding door that can be moved from side to side by moving parallel to the indoor side. As shown in FIG. 2, the shoji 1 is movable left and right by moving the shoji 1 toward the indoor side. A slide guide 5 that slidably engages with an upper frame 4 is attached to the upper stile 3 of the shoji screen, and a doorstop 6 is attached to the upper frame 4.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the door stop 6
is pivoted to a bearing 7 fixed to the upper frame 4, and a latch receiver 8 is installed at a position on the upper frame 4 opposite to the support portion thereof. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the support portion 7 is comprised of a pair of bearings and is adapted to receive a shaft 6a protruding from both sides of the doorstop portion 6. As shown in FIGS.
Therefore, each bearing 7 has a shaft 6a as shown in FIG.
There is a hole 9 for receiving the. 10 is a screw hole,
The bearing 7 is attached to the upper frame 4 with screws 11.

As shown in FIG. 6, the doorstop part 6 is formed with a groove 12 that opens on the opposite side of the pivot part, and preferably a pair of holes 13, 13' are formed in the bottom wall defining the groove.
is formed. A latch 14 is slidably mounted within this groove, as seen in FIG.
As shown in FIG.
a and 12b, into which the edges on both sides of the latch 14 fit. An operating knob 15 is installed on the latch 14, and the knob 15 has a pin 1 inserted into a through hole 16 of the latch 14 as shown in FIG.
7. The other end of this pin 17 is adapted to engage with holes 13, 13' in the door stop portion 6.
A spring 18 is inserted between the collar 17' of the pin 17 and the step of the hole 16 of the latch 14, so that the pin 17 and the knob 15 are biased in the opposite direction.

As shown in FIG. 9, the latch receiver 8 is formed with a groove 19 for receiving the latch 14. At both ends there are screw holes 21 for fixing the latch receiver 8 to the upper frame with screws 20. As shown in FIG. 5, knock pins 22 are installed on both sides of the groove 12 of the door stop 6, and the stepped portion of the edge of the latch 14 comes into contact with the knock pins 22, thereby preventing the latch 14 from coming off.

In order to provide this movable door stop with a stopping function, it is sufficient to pivot the door stop part 6 upwards and pull the knob 15 to engage the latch 14 in the groove 19 of the latch receiver, as shown in FIG. In this state, the slide guide 5 fixed to the upper stile hits the door stop 6 and the shoji is stopped. When the knob 15 is pulled against the elasticity of the spring 18, the end of the pin 17 is inserted into the hole 1 of the door stop.
3, the latch 14 becomes movable, and when it is inserted into the groove 19 of the latch receiver, the stepped part of the edge of the latch 14 touches the knock pin 22, and when the knob 15 is released, the end of the pin 17 is moved by the spring 18. It engages with the other hole 13' due to elasticity and maintains the engaged state.
To disengage the latch 14, pull the knob 15 downward to disengage the end of the pin 17 from the hole 13', pivot downward and retract the latch 14 into the groove 12; The end of the closing pin 17 engages with the hole 13, and the latch 14 is kept in a state that it does not protrude from the doorstop part 6. In this state, there is no stop function,
Therefore, the shoji can be moved freely.

In addition, as mentioned above, the latch 14 is inserted through the hole 13'.
Although it is preferred that the latch be held in engagement, it may be held by other mechanisms, for example the latch may be held in the latch receiver 8 by the resiliency of a spring.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the doorstop function can be performed with a one-touch operation, and the function can also be canceled with a one-touch operation. Therefore, the shoji can be moved in any direction, making it convenient for cleaning glass. Furthermore, when the stop function is not being performed, the latch is retracted into the doorstop, which minimizes the space required.
