Abstract

PURPOSE: To connect a ceiling panel with a wall panel by a simple work by fitting an end fringe on a reversely recessed side of the ceiling panel into an upper end fringe in a channel shape of the wall panel and nipping it by a nip section of a fixing clip. CONSTITUTION: A fixing clip 6 having a nip section 6a is provided at an upper end fringe 41a in a channel shape of a vinyl chloride steel plate 41 of a wall panel 4 erected in a peripheral fringe section of a waterproof pan. Moreover, end fringes 51a on the right and left sides of a vinyl chloride steel plate 51 of a ceiling panel 5 are bent in the reversely recessed shape. The ceiling panel 5 covers an upper opening section of the wall panel 4 and is pulled down. Then, the end fringe 51a on the reversely recessed side of the ceiling panel 5 is fitted into the upper end fringe 41a in a channel shape of the wall panel 4 and is nipped by the nip section 6a of the fixing clip 6. In this way, it is possible to connect the ceiling panel 5 with the wall panel 4 by the simple work that the ceiling panel 5 is pulled downward from above.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure for connecting a wall panel and a ceiling panel in a unit room such as a bathroom unit.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, bathroom units have been installed in apartment houses and the like. As shown in FIG. 2, the bathroom unit 1 is provided with a waterproof pan 2 forming a washing space, a bathtub 3 which is integral with the waterproof pan 2, or a separate body, and which is provided upright on the periphery of the waterproof pan 2. The waterproof pan 2 and the bathtub 3 are surrounded by a wall panel 4 which is provided upright, and a ceiling panel 5 which covers an upper opening formed by the wall panels 4. And
The ceiling panel 5 is connected to the upper end edge of the wall panel 4 by screwing the end edge portion directly or indirectly via a connecting metal fitting (for example, the actual opening Sho 59-1).
(See Japanese Patent No. 0441).

[0003]

However, the work of connecting the ceiling panel to the wall panel described above must be performed in a narrow space on the back side of the ceiling, which is the back side of the bathroom unit, and the work is not only complicated. However, there is a problem that it is difficult and requires a lot of work time.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a wall panel-to-ceiling panel connection structure capable of easily and securely connecting the ceiling panel to the wall panel from the inside of the unit. is there.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention comprises a wall panel which is erected on the peripheral edge of a waterproof pan and a ceiling panel which covers the upper opening of the wall panel. A fixing clip is provided on the upper edge of the wall panel. It is characterized in that the front end portion of the ceiling panel is fitted into the holding portion of the fixing clip to connect the ceiling panel to the wall panel.

[0006]

A fixing clip having a holding portion is provided at the upper edge of the wall panel erected on the peripheral edge of the waterproof pan, and when the ceiling panel covered above this wall panel is pulled down, the tip thereof is pulled down. The part is fitted into the holding part of the fixing clip.

As a result, inside the unit, the ceiling panel can be connected to the wall panel by a simple operation of pulling the ceiling panel downward from above.

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

For convenience of explanation, the same members as those of the conventional example shown in FIG. 2 will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted to avoid duplication.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a connection structure between a wall panel and a ceiling panel according to the present invention. The wall panel 4 in this embodiment is formed by adhering a gypsum board 42, which is a backing material, to the back surface of a vinyl chloride steel plate 41, and an upper edge 41a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 41 is bent in a U shape. On the other hand, the ceiling panel 5 is also formed by adhering a gypsum board 52, which is a backing material, to the back surface of the vinyl chloride steel plate 51, and the left and right side edges 51a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 51 have the vinyl chloride steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4 described above. The U-shaped upper edge 41a is bent into a reverse concave shape. Further, the tip portion 51b of the reverse concave side end edge 51a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 51 in the ceiling panel 5 is folded back and formed to be thick in order to ensure fitting with the fixing clip 6 described later, An elongated hole 51x for inserting a drawing jig (not shown) at the time of assembling the ceiling panel 5 at the bottom of the reverse concave side edge 51a.
Are formed.

A fixing clip 6 having a narrow holding portion 6a is attached to a U-shaped upper edge 41a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4 via a screw b.

Between the U-shaped upper edge 41a of the PVC steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4 and the reverse concave side edge 51a of the PVC steel plate 51 of the ceiling panel 5 into which the U-shaped upper edge 41a is fitted. Is provided with a seal member 7.

Therefore, when assembling a unit room such as a bathroom unit, first, the fixing clip 6 is attached to the U-shaped upper edge 41a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4 via the screw b, and then the fixing clip 6 is attached. The wall panel 4 to which is attached is erected on the peripheral portion of the waterproof pan 2.
Then, the ceiling panel 5 is lifted above the upper opening formed by these wall panels 4, and the
The reverse concave side end edge 51a of No. 1 is dropped so as to fit into the U-shaped upper end edge 41a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4. Then, a pulling jig is inserted through a long hole 51x formed at the bottom of the reverse concave side edge 51a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 51 in the ceiling panel 5, and the ceiling panel 5 is inserted through this jig.
Is pulled, the thick front end portion 51b of the vinyl chloride steel plate 51 in the ceiling panel 5 is fitted into the fixing clip 6 by pushing the holding portion 6a open. In this way, when the ceiling panel 5 is fitted and connected to the upper end of the wall panel 4, the U-shaped upper edge 41a of the vinyl chloride steel plate 41 in the wall panel 4 is connected.
And the ceiling panel 5 fitted to the U-shaped upper edge 41a
The seal member 7 is pushed between the PVC plate 51 and the reverse concave side edge 51a to seal the both.

When it is necessary to remove the ceiling panel 5 for maintenance or inspection, the ceiling panel 5 is lifted up from the inside of the bathroom unit 1 so that the thick tip portion 51b of the vinyl chloride steel plate 51 on the ceiling panel 5 is lifted. As a result, the holding portion 6a of the fixing clip 6 is pushed open and released, so that the connected state can be easily released.

In this way, the ceiling panel 5 can be easily or surely connected to or detached from the wall panel 4 from the inside of the bathroom unit 1.

Although the fixing clip 6 of this embodiment is illustrated by being attached to the PVC steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4 with the screw b, the upper end edge of the PVC steel plate 41 of the wall panel 4 is bent to be integrally formed in advance. It may be formed.

Further, in this embodiment, the connection structure of the wall panel 4 and the ceiling panel 5 in the bathroom unit 1 has been exemplified, but it may be adopted in other unit rooms such as a shower room and a toilet room.

[0018]

As described above, according to the present invention, the fixing clip is provided on the upper edge of the wall panel, and the tip of the ceiling panel is fitted into the holding portion of the fixing clip to connect the ceiling panel to the wall panel. As a result, inside the unit,
The ceiling panel can be connected to the wall panel with a simple work of pulling it down.
