Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a window structure for a bathroom using a connection frame.

[0002]

[Prior art and its problems]

 Conventionally, when a wall panel is built on the indoor side of a building to form a bathroom, a bay window is often formed from the bathroom side.In this case, a tubular shape is formed between the window sash and the opening formed in the wall panel. A connection window is provided, and a bay window is formed by this connection frame.However, since this connection frame is made of resin, it is weak in strength, and potted plants and other equipment such as shampoo should be placed in the connection frame. In many cases, children may get inside the connection frame.In such a case, the connection frame is cracked by the load, and the connection frame is bent by the load, so the connection frame and the window sash are waterproofed. There was a problem that the silicon that seals was cut off, and the screw connecting the connection frame and the window sash fell out.

[0003]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has been devised in view of the above conventional problems. Even when a potted plant or the like is placed in the connection frame, the potted plant or the like is strongly supported and the strength of the connection frame is increased. The purpose of the invention is not to provide a window structure that can be opened, and the gist of the idea is to connect a resin-made tubular connection between the opening formed in the wall panel that forms the side wall of the bathroom and the window sash attached to the window frame. In the window of the bathroom connected by the frame, a supporting metal fitting for supporting at least the lower surface of the connection frame is provided.

[0004]

[Action]

 At least the lower surface of the connection frame that connects the opening of the wall panel and the window sash is provided with a support metal, and the lower surface of the connection frame can be reinforced by the support metal fittings. Even if it is struck, the supporting metal fitting can well support the load of potting and the like, and the cracking and bending of the connecting frame can be prevented satisfactorily.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional configuration diagram showing the window structure of the first embodiment. On the window side of the building, an aluminum window sash 3 is attached between an upper lintel 1 and a lower window sill 2. . On the other hand, on the indoor side, wall panels 4 and 4 that form the side wall surface of the bathroom are installed. This wall panel 4 has a large number of tiles 4a and 4a attached to the inside of the bathroom and the back surface is It is composed of a square pipe frame 4b, and an opening K is formed between the wall panels 4 and 4 at a portion facing the window sash 3.

In this opening K, a connection frame 5 is arranged from the indoor side of the bathroom toward the window sash 3 side, and the connection frame 5 is made of resin and formed into a tubular shape. The outer end of the window sash 3 is arranged outside the flanges 3a, 3a formed on the inside of the window sash 3, and the screw 6 is screwed into the window sash 3 from the inside of the flange 3a. The outer end of the connection frame 5 is connected to the window sash 3 by means of. It should be noted that waterproof silicon is applied to the outside of the flange portion 3a of the window sash 3 and the inside of the outer end portion of the connection frame 5 by applying waterproof silicone.

A flange portion 5c is integrally formed on the inner end portion of the connection frame 5 so as to project outward, and the flange portion 5c is inside the opening K and is on the surface of the tile 4a of the wall panel 4. And the screw 7 is screwed into the flange portion 5c from the bathroom side, and the flange portion 5c is fixed to the frame 4b of the wall panel 4 by the screw 7. Therefore, the window sash 3 and the opening K of the wall panel 4 are connected by the connection frame 5, and the connection frame 5 forms a bay window extending from the indoor side of the bathroom to the window sash 3 side.

In this example, a T-shaped lower support fitting 8 is provided on the lower surface of the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5, and the lower support fitting 8 reinforces the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5. It has been done. That is, the lower support metal fitting 8 is composed of a horizontal piece 8a that almost comes into contact with the lower surface of the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5, and a vertical piece 8b integrally formed in a hanging shape from the central portion of the horizontal piece 8a. The vertical piece 8b is fixed to the inside of the window stand 2 with screws or the like.

As described above, since the lower surface 5b of the connection frame 5 is supported and reinforced by the lower support metal fitting 8, even when potting or other equipment such as shampoo is placed on the upper surface of the lower surface 5b, Loads such as potted plants are favorably supported by the lower support metal fittings 8 and the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5 is not bent, so that the connection frame 5 can be well prevented from cracking and the bending can be prevented. Therefore, the screw 6 does not come off, and the outer edge of the connection frame 5 can be satisfactorily prevented from running out of waterproof silicon. A similar T-shaped upper support fitting 9 may be fixed to the lintel 1 on the upper surface of the upper surface 5a of the connection frame 5 to reinforce the upper surface 5a.

Next, FIG. 2 is a half sectional view of the second embodiment. In the second embodiment, the lower support metal fitting 8 is provided so as to be adjustable in vertical height. The bracket 8 is fixed to the inside of the window stand 2 by using the piece 8b as a bolt, and the vertical piece 8b of the lower support metal fitting 8 is attached to the horizontal piece 10a of the bracket 10 through the nuts 11 and 12 so as to be vertically movable. The height of the horizontal piece 8a of the lower support fitting 8 can be appropriately adjusted by appropriately adjusting the nuts 11 and 12, and the height of the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5 can be favorably adjusted. By adjusting, the horizontal piece 8a of the lower support fitting 8 can be surely brought into contact with the lower surface of the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5 to ensure the reinforcement of the lower surface portion 5b.

Next, FIG. 3 shows a third embodiment. In FIG. 3, a supporting metal fitting 13 is fixed to a frame 4b on the back side of the wall panel 4, and the supporting metal fitting 13 is a lower surface portion of the connection frame 5. 5b comprises a horizontal piece 13a that abuts the lower surface, a vertical piece 13b fixed to the back side of the frame 4b of the wall panel 4, and a reinforcing piece 13c that connects the vertical piece 13b and the horizontal piece 13a. Therefore, the horizontal piece 13a is brought into contact with the lower surface of the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5, the load applied to the lower surface portion 5b is favorably supported, and the bending of the connection frame 5 can be favorably prevented.

In addition, in order to prevent a load applied to the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5, a supporting metal member having a Z-shaped cross section or a U-shaped cross section is used. It may be arranged between the lower surface of the lower surface portion 5b of the connection frame 5 and the lower surface portion 5b to reinforce the lower surface portion 5b, and the shape of the support metal tool is not particularly limited.
