Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a shading/lighting device that is installed outdoors, especially near a window.

Traditionally, this type of outdoor shutter is installed on the outside of a window, and its purpose is to protect the window from rain and wind, prevent light and sound from leaking indoors, and serve as a door lock. As such, there is no change in its usage since ancient times. In recent years, however, the various effects brought about by shutters have been reconsidered and prized.
However, the function is only one of shielding, and it is difficult to handle the door bag or door roller, and it is easy to cause a failure. The majority of the reasons are that it is not possible to install guide rails etc. inside the door pockets. On the other hand, since it is closed completely, the room feels heavy and the ventilation is not good. If you replace the wooden door with a well-ventilated glazed door, it will improve ventilation, but
There is no difference in other respects.

The ``musou window'' that has been used for a long time is today's window, and although it is not an outside window device, it has good functions for blocking light and letting in light. However, in terms of effectiveness, it lacks the freedom of regular windows.

On the other hand, although it is an indoor device, blackout blinds are thin and light shielding plates made of cloth, paper, synthetic resin, etc. that are connected together and pulled out using pulleys, etc., and the angle (orientation)
We are free to change and adapt. It has the advantage of allowing good light and blocking, and above all, it is very small when it is fully installed, so it does not require space or a special door. However, this device is placed in a static environment indoors, and is inherently vulnerable to wind, rain, and the like.

Even with indoor air conditioning and heating equipment, there is a large loss of cold or hot air through the windows, but in this case, if there is a shield outside the window, even if it is thin, the loss can be alleviated to a large extent. . Reflections from bright walls such as glass windows can affect nearby homes and vehicles, causing problems.

Balconies are convenient, but I often wish they had a simple shielding device.

In other words, as described above, there is a new development of a device that can be used outdoors (outside the window, etc.), is resistant to rain and wind, has good shading and lighting effects, does not take up much space (in terms of capacity), and is easy to handle. , is requested.

The present invention responds to this demand by taking advantage of the advantages of shutters, dark windows, and blackout blinds.
These shortcomings as an outdoor device have been compensated for, and it has been made into a new component.

To explain the embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings, the light shielding plate 1 is made of a hard material such as wood, resin, synthetic resin, or metal, and is a rectangular plate having a thickness that does not easily bend or deform. A rectangular connecting hole 2 is opened at the center of the upper end surface, and a guide rod 3 of the same rectangular shape is vertically projected from the center of the lower end surface. This rectangular shape (cross section) is slightly longer in width than length, and is the same as the rectangular cross section of the slide piece 5 protruding below the slide tube 4.

The slide tube 4 has a slide piece 5 installed in a horizontally extending guide groove 10 that is opened horizontally in the center of the flat plate surface of the flat upper frame rail 8 that extends horizontally in the upper frame 7 of the shielding frame body 6. Insert the head 9 vertically with the sides together and protrude downward, and insert the head 9 into the upper frame rail 8
It is a small part placed on the top surface, and the number of light shielding plates 1 that are attached to a window frame or the like at a substantially right angle are attached in advance. The head 9 has a vertical width longer than the width of the guide groove 10 and a width considerably longer than the width of the slide piece 5.

The groove width of the guide groove 10 of the upper frame rail 8 is approximately equal to the vertical width of the slide piece 5, and the guide groove 10
A circular rotation fixed point 11 is sequentially opened and provided with the width of the light shielding plate 1 at the same time. The rotation fixed point 11 is a place where the direction of the light shielding plate 1 is rotated, and the rotation fixed point 1
The circle No. 1 has a center point on the center line of the guide groove 10 and has a diameter that is a diagonal line of the rectangular cross section of the slide piece 5.

The upper frame 7 is provided with a horizontally long plate-shaped locking rail 12 having a width of about half the width of the upper frame rail 8 so as to overlap the upper frame rail 8. As shown in the drawing, the locking rail 12 temporarily fixes the angle change of the slide piece 5 at the rotation fixed point 11.
However, it can be slid back and forth.

The shielding frame 6 is a frame that surrounds a window or the like from the outside. In the lower frame 21 or middle frame 14 of the shielding frame 6,
A flat lower frame rail 15 is provided in the same way as the upper frame rail 8 in the upper frame 7, and guide grooves 10 are cut in the same manner so as to face each other, and rotation fixed points 11, 11, . . . are provided. In Fig. 1, an example is shown in which the middle frame 14 does not have the lower frame 21, and the middle frame 14 is divided into two parts, and the light shielding plates 1, 1... are placed perpendicularly to the window surface toward the left vertical frame 16. The overlapped length is used as a storage shelf 17, and the remaining left half part can be bent upward at right angles, and is used as a left folding frame 18. The right half of the middle frame 10 is the right vertical frame 1.
The right folding frame 19 can be bent upward at a right angle at 6. The left folding frame 18 and the right folding frame 19 are connected in a horizontal line by a connecting device such as a latch, and the middle frame 14 is connected together with the storage shelf 17 part.
form.

In the assembly of the present invention, for example, in the example shown in FIG. 1, the shielding frame 6 is first attached to the outside of the window frame 20 and fixed. Next, fold the middle frame 14 into left and right fold frames 18 and 1.
Constructed by connecting 9. Hold one light shielding plate 1 perpendicular to the window, insert its guide rod 3 into the guide groove 10 of the lower frame rail 15 in the middle frame 14, and
The slide piece 5 of the slide tube 4 extending downward from the guide groove 10 of the inner upper frame rail 8 is inserted into the connecting hole 2 provided on its upper end surface and fixed with screws or the like. In this way, the other light shielding plates 1, 1...
It is attached to the upper and lower frame rails 8 and 15 one after another so that it can slide left and right. In addition, the lower frame 21 and the center frame 14
As with the upper frame 7, the upper frame 7 may have a non-foldable configuration. With the above steps, installation (assembly) is completed.

The light shielding plates 1, 1... are provided between the guide grooves 10, 10,
It is held between the slide piece 5 and the guide rod 3, and can smoothly slide left and right, but cannot move back and forth.
However, if this is brought to the rotation fixed points 11, 11, it becomes possible to freely rotate 360 degrees.

For temporarily fixing the angle of the light shielding plate 1 (with respect to the window frame 20) at the rotation fixed points 11, 11, for example,
For the right angle state, A of the locking rail 12, which is a thin flat plate with a notch in the width of the slide piece 5.
By holding the handle 13 and pushing it forward,
Rotational movement is sealed. For example, if the angle is 45 degrees, the light shielding plate 1 should be oriented at 45 degrees and the locking rail 12 provided with a 45 degree circular cutout B or C.
, by pressing the handle 13 forward in the same way, or by changing the 90 degree angle and arranging the light shielding plates 1, 1, etc. sideways like a rain door (second
In FIG. 1, a locking rail 12 D having a square groove cut out by the longitudinal width of the slide piece 5 is similarly used.

When the fixation is to be released or changed, by pulling back the pushed locking rail 12, the temporary fixation is released and changes can be made freely.

Using E of the locking rail 12, which blocks a part of the rotation fixed points 11, 11 of the left-right movement of the light-shielding plates 1, 1, for example, the light-shielding plates 1, 1... all are moved to the left vertical frame 16 and stacked. (Figure 1).

According to the present invention, there is no need to provide a special large space for storing the light shielding plate 1, it can provide sufficient shielding like a shutter, and does not make the room narrow like a narrow window.
Also, like blackout blinds, you can freely block out light.
It has many effects as described below.

When replacing the light shielding plate 1, only the part to be replaced is
This can be easily done by reversing the above installation order.

It is also possible to draw out and store the light shielding plate 1, change the angle, and temporarily fix it by using gears, rollers, pulleys, etc., and by switching levers, chains, etc. It is also possible to double the arrangement of the light shielding plates 1, to attach a central frame for reinforcement or door locking to the shielding frame 6, to provide the locking rail 12 on the lower frame 21 or the middle frame 14,
By dividing the locking rail 12 instead of making it horizontal, for example, the left half of the light shielding plates 1, 1... can be fully opened (perpendicular to a window, etc. - Fig. 3), and the right half fully open (Fig. 2). ) can also be done, and the effect brought about is great.

In addition, by attaching this invention not only to the outside of glass windows, but also to the handrails of balconies, it is possible to prevent laundry from being seen from the street, and to protect flowers and other plants from the summer sun. It can also be used as a snow fence by placing it in front of the wall of a house during the winter and removing it. In the case of snow enclosures, etc., arranging the light shielding plates 1 in two layers, one above the other, has a good effect on lighting.

In a computer room, if outside light is blocked by curtains, etc., the reflected light from the glass is said to have a negative effect on the eyes of the operator. For rooms like this where air management is noisy, we believe that the outside window shading and lighting device like the one proposed in this invention is a good idea.
