BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sash lower frame structure of a bathroom for a physically handicapped person, which is suitable for a physically handicapped person using a wheelchair or the like to enter and leave a bathroom in a wheelchair.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to allow persons with physical disabilities to enter and leave the bathroom in a wheelchair, it is fair to devise a bathroom entrance with a flat sash at the bottom of the entrance.
It is described in Publication No. 6.

The entrance / exit portion flattens the entrance / exit bottom frame by providing the upper edge of a protrusion such as a lower guide rail on which a door roller is placed at the same height as the floor surface.

[0004] In addition, the invention of a bathroom sill part in which a hanging door is used instead of a door roller and the height of the entrance and exit is equal to the height of the slats is described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 64-53365. There is. In this structure of the sill, a sludge having the same height as the slats on the bathroom side is provided on the upper surface of the sill, and the lower end of the hanging door is inserted between the slats on the upper surface of the sill.

In any structure, in order to make the lower frame of the entrance and exit flush with the floor, it is necessary to prevent water from flowing out from the bathroom side. Therefore, in each of the inventions, a drain hole is opened in the sash portion forming the lower guide rail and the slats.

[0006]

However, in the structure of the sash that constitutes the entrance / exit of the former, the lower guide rail on which the door roller is placed and the inclined piece for supporting the lower guide rail are integrally formed. Therefore, in order to drain the water that enters the lower guide rail, it is necessary to open a drain hole in this lower guide rail. As a result, the strength of the lower guide rail may be reduced, and the work of opening the water drain hole is troublesome. Moreover, a drain hole formed on the side surface of a ridge such as a rail does not provide a sufficient drainage effect, and there is also a sanitary problem that water that cannot be completely removed remains in the lower guide rail. It was

On the other hand, in the latter sill structure, it is impossible to dispose the slats directly on the frame of the sill because of waterproof treatment. Therefore, in addition to the slats, the sill supporting the slats is waterproofed, and a large-scale waterproof frame forming the water passage holes is required. As a result, there is a problem in that the construction members of the threshold and the construction work require a great deal of expense and labor.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned problems. The construction work is easy, the structural strength is excellent, and the inside of the recess formed in the lower frame surface of the bathroom is The purpose of the present invention is to provide a sash lower frame structure for a bathroom for the physically handicapped who has good drainage.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention relates to a sash lower frame of a bathroom for a physically handicapped person, in which the sash of the lower frame of the bathroom entrance and exit is flat to facilitate the entrance and exit of a wheelchair. The lower frame body 2 provided with the middle plate 2A having a slope through which water flows is placed on the frame Q, and the upper surface of this lower frame body 2 is kept flush with the floors inside and outside the bathroom entrance / exit. The upper frame 1 is provided in a freely combinable manner, and a recess 1A into which the insertion plate P1 at the lower end of the hanging door P is inserted is formed on the upper surface of the upper frame 1, and a drain hole 1B is formed at the bottom of the recess 1A, and Drainage hole 2 for draining water flowing into the lower surface of the upper frame 1 from the hole 1B
Forming D along the upper surface of the middle plate 2A of the lower frame body 2 is a means for solving the problem.

[0010]

According to this invention, since the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2 can be freely combined, the drainage hole 2D is formed afterward when the lower frame sash is constructed. Then, the water flowing in from the recess 1A of the upper frame 1 is returned to the bathroom through the drain hole 2D.

The recess 1A is for inserting the insertion plate P1 of the hanging door P, and the drain plate P2 provided on the insertion plate P1 prevents the water from flowing out of the bathroom.

[0012]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The sash lower frame of this invention is a lower frame sash for entrances and exits in the floor part such as a drainboard inside the bathroom or a flat surface outside the bathroom so that a physically handicapped person can enter and leave the bathroom in a wheelchair. It is provided so as to make the height of the uniform.

Therefore, in this sash lower frame, the lower frame body 2 is placed on the frame Q, and the upper frame body which maintains the same plane as the floors inside and outside the bathroom entrance / exit is provided on the lower frame body 2. 1 can be freely combined. The combination structure of the upper frame body 1 and the lower frame body 2 is, for example, a structure in which the upper end portion of the support plate 2B of the lower frame body 2 and the upper frame body 1 are slidably fitted together like the connecting portion 3 shown in the figure. Although it is planned, other connecting means may be used, and the point is that the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2 can be combined and integrated when the lower sash is installed.

On the upper surface of the lower frame body 2, there is provided an intermediate plate 2A having a slope through which water flows toward the bathroom.

On the other hand, the upper frame 1 has a recess 1A into which the insertion plate P1 at the lower end of the hanging door P is inserted, and a drain hole 1B is opened at the bottom of the recess 1A. Therefore, when the water in the bathroom is scattered, the insertion plate P1 of the hanging door P prevents the water from flowing out, and the water flowing into the recess 1A from the insertion plate P1 is drained from the drain hole 1B through the middle plate 2A. It is returned from the hole 2D to the inside of the bathroom. Although the upper frame 1 shown in the figure has two recesses 1A for the sliding door, the recess 1A may have only one recess. However, even when one hanging door P is used for the sash in which the two recesses 1A are formed in advance, there is an advantage that the unused recess 1A acts as a drain. still,
The drainage hole 1B opened in the recess 1A can be formed in a long hole shape as shown in FIG. 2, for example, to enhance the drainage effect.

Several insertion plates P1 of the hanging door P are provided at appropriate positions on a draining plate P3 made of thin aluminum or the like provided in a strip shape along the longitudinal direction of the recess 1A (see FIG. 3). By doing so, the drainage of the water by the draining plate P3 becomes extremely good.

A ridge-shaped closing member P3 is provided at the portion of the hanging door P that abuts on the upright S, while a contact plate T is provided on the side surface of the upright S on which the hanging door P abuts. By forming the fitting recess T1 into which the closing member P3 is fitted in the contact plate T, it is possible to prevent water leakage from the side surface of the hanging door P. At this time, by forming the closing member P3 and the fitting recess T1 with an elastic material such as rubber, it is safe even if a finger is accidentally caught in this gap.

On the bathroom side, although SNOKO R is used in the figure, floor tile specifications can be obtained by forming drainage grooves along the sash lower frame, for example. At this time, a perforated stainless steel plate may be provided on the drainage groove so as to be flat between the upper frame 1 and the floor tile (not shown).

[0020]

The present invention achieves the original purpose by being configured as described above.

That is, a lower frame 2 having an inclined middle plate 2A on the bathroom side is placed on a frame Q, and on the upper side of the lower frame 2, floors inside and outside the bathroom entrance / exit are provided. Since the upper frame body 1 that maintains the same plane as the above is freely provided, the drainage holes 2D can be formed later when the lower frame sash is constructed. Therefore, it is extremely easy to form the drainage hole 2D in the sash, and moreover, after the drainage hole 2D is formed, the upper frame 1
Since the lower frame body 2 is combined with the lower frame body 2 to be integrated, the same strength as a normal sash can be obtained. Therefore, like the conventional sash in which the lower guide rail on which the door roller is placed and the inclined piece supporting the lower guide rail are integrally formed, the sash strength is lowered and the draining hole opening and closing work is troublesome. The inconveniences that existed have been resolved.

Further, since the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2 are combined and integrated, they can be used in the same manner as an ordinary sash. Therefore, as in the conventional threshold structure using a sludge,
There is no need to spend a lot of money and effort on the components and construction work.

Then, a recess 1A into which the insertion plate P1 at the lower end of the hanging door P is inserted is formed on the upper surface of the upper frame 1, and this recess 1A is formed.
By forming a drainage hole 1B at the bottom of the bottom of the frame and a drainage hole 2D for draining water flowing from the drainage hole 1B to the lower surface of the upper frame 1 along the upper surface of the middle plate 2A of the lower frame 2, 1A
The water that has flowed in is completely drained from the drain hole 1B to the lower surface of the upper frame body 1. As a result, since the inside of the recess 1A can be kept clean at all times, the problem of hygiene such that water accumulates in the lower guide rail has been solved.

As described above, according to the present invention, various practically useful effects such as easy construction work, superior structural strength, hygiene, and low cost can be obtained. is there.
