Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention provides a folding door that is composed of a plurality of panels and that allows the panels to be folded only at one end of the panel. This invention relates to a device for opening a folding door.

[Background technology]

In the case of a conventional folding door, the front piece 5 of the rail 3 is simply provided with a notch 8 for inserting and removing the pin. If you don't push the connection part between them a little in the direction that the guide pin 4 pops out, the guide pin 4 will not work properly.
There was a problem that it was not possible to make it fly out from the outside, and the operability was poor.

[Purpose of invention]

An object of the present invention is to provide a folding door kicking device that can automatically project a guide pin by simply pushing the folding door from one end along a rail, thereby improving operability.

[Disclosure of invention]

The device for kicking out a folding door of the present invention has a runner 2 provided at the top of one side end of a panel 1 attached to a rail 3 so as to be freely movable, and a plurality of panels 1 connected to each other so as to be foldable. A guide pin 4 is protruded from the upper part of the panel 1 near the connecting part between the side edges of the panels 1 that do not have the runner 2, and a front piece 5 and a rear piece are provided in front and behind the rail 3 on which the runner 2 runs. A piece 6 is provided vertically, and the contact member 7 is horizontally rotatably supported on the rail 3.
The pivot portion to the rail 3 is shifted toward the rear piece 6 side with respect to the guide pin 4, and a notch 8 for inserting and removing the pin is provided in the front piece 5 corresponding to the abutting member 7,
With such a configuration, the above-mentioned object of the present invention is achieved.

The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to Examples. A plurality of panels 1 are attached to a rail 3 so as to be freely movable.
That is, each panel 1 is provided with a runner 2 at the upper end of one side, and this runner 2 is attached to a rail 3 so that it can run freely, and the panels 1 are connected to each other so that they can be folded. Here, runner 2 between panel 1
A guide pin 4 is provided protruding from the upper part of the panel 1 in the vicinity of the connecting portion between the side edges that do not have the side edges. A front piece 5 and a rear piece 6 are vertically provided on the rail 3, and a contact member 7 is pivotably supported within the rail 3 near a guide pin 4 on one end side of the folding door so as to be horizontally rotatable. , the pivot portion of the abutment member 7 to the rail 3 is shifted to the rear side of the guide pin 4. Also front piece 5
A notch 8 for inserting and removing the pin is provided corresponding to the contact member 7. The abutting member 7 is composed of an L-shaped piece 10 having a protruding piece 9 at its tip.
The base side piece 0 and the rear piece 6 are connected by a spring 11. However, when the folding door is pushed from one end in the fully closed state (that is, pushed from the direction of arrow A in FIG. 4), the guide pin 4 hits the L-shaped piece 10 of the contact member 7, and the L-shaped piece 10 The contact causes the guide pin 4 to rotate as shown by the arrow in FIG. 6 against the spring 11, and as a result, the guide pin 4 moves toward the front piece 5 side. Then, the two ends of the panels 1 that were lined up in a straight line will become slightly F-shaped, so if you push the folding door further in this state, the folding door will move to the rail 3.
The pushing force along the edges acts as a force to further fold the two panels 1 at the end, and as a result, the guide pin 4 pops out from the notch 8 for inserting and removing the pin, and then the third and fourth panels The next guide pin 4 provided near the connection part of the panel 1 similarly pops out from the notch 8 for inserting and removing the pin.
Fold the folding door in this way. On the other hand, when closing, when one end of the folding door is pulled to the opposite side, the guide pin 4 enters into the rail 3 through the pin insertion/removal notch 8, and the contact member 7 is rotated in the opposite direction against the spring 11. It moves and passes. FIG. 7 shows an example of a bifold door as the folding door. In this bifold door as well, the guide pin 4 is pulled out in the same manner as described above. In any of the above embodiments, the folding door is allowed to move slightly along the rail 3 when fully closed, and by doing so, the guide pin 4 can be pushed by pushing the folding door from one side when fully closed as described above. It can be applied to the abutment member 7. Further, a lower pin 13 running on a lower rail 12 is vertically provided at the lower part of the side end of each panel 1 on which the runner 2 is provided.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, the present invention has a runner provided at the upper end of one side of a panel, which is attached to the rail so that it can run freely, and which connects a plurality of panels so that they can be folded, and has runners between the panels that protrude outside the rail when folded. A guide pin is provided protruding from the upper part of the panel near the connecting part between the side ends of the runner, and a front piece and a rear piece are vertically provided in front and behind the rail on which the runner runs. The pivot part of the support and abutment member to the rail is shifted to one side behind the guide pin, and a notch for inserting and removing the pin is provided in the front piece corresponding to the abutment member, so the folding door can be pushed along the rail. The guide pin hits the abutting member and as the abutting member rotates, the guide pin is automatically kicked out into a notch for inserting and removing the pin, and the folding door can be easily folded automatically. It is possible.
