Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a panel spacing setting device used for spacing adjacent panels by a certain distance.

[Prior Art] The method of connecting multiple panels is as follows:
As disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 04-04, there is a method of connecting the end faces of the panels by abutting each other. In the above publication, an example of an eaves ceiling panel is given. In that case, a gap of a predetermined size is opened between the end faces of adjacent eaves ceiling panels,
A joint material is attached to this gap to improve the appearance of the connection portion.

By the way, from the viewpoint of appearance, it is desirable that the above-mentioned eaves ceiling panels are separated from each other by a constant distance.

Also, except when using an irregular shaped joint material such as putty, when using a fixed joint material, if the gap is too narrow, the joint material cannot be inserted, and if it is too wide, the joint material is too wide. Since the joint material comes off when it is loosened, the joint material is lost in the worst case. Therefore, management of the above-mentioned gap size is extremely important.

Conventionally, when setting this distance, either measure directly with a scale, or if the edge of the eaves ceiling panel is inserted into and supported by the side rail, insert a spacer into this side rail. Method was adopted.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, there is a problem in that when the scale is directly measured, the burden on the operator is large and mistakes such as erroneous reading of dimensions are easily made. Further, in the case where the target panels are connected in the vertical direction, it is necessary to keep the panel at that height until the separation dimension is set and the panel is fixed, which is more troublesome.

On the other hand, when the spacer is used, the panel and the spacer have to be alternately inserted into the side rails in turn, resulting in poor workability.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the conventional technique, and an object of the present invention is to provide a panel spacing setting device capable of accurately and easily setting the spacing dimension between panels. Where it is.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention has been made in order to achieve the above-mentioned object, and its gist is to provide a plurality of panels that are supported by side rails at both edges and are continuous in the extending direction of the side rails. , The side rails that are spaced apart from each other by a certain size and that support at least one edge of the panel have a first locking portion that locks the surface of the panel edge and a side surface of the panel edge. The second locking portion for locking is provided, and the back side of the panel edge is opened, and the slider is movably inserted in the side rail in the extending direction of the side rail. The slider is (a)
A leg that is loosely inserted between the surface of the panel edge and the first locking portion of the side rail; and (b) a side surface of the panel edge that is continuous with the leg and the second locking of the side rail. (C) The width dimension along the extending direction of the side rail is set to the same dimension as the desired panel spacing dimension, and the arm portion is extended from the arm portion to the extension of the arm portion. A claw portion that extends in a direction away from the leg portion, is bent in a direction approaching the other side rail from its root, is sandwiched between adjacent panel end portions, and functions as a spacer. And the panel spacing setting device.

[Operation] Since the slider is sandwiched between the side rail and the panel, and the leg portion of the slider is hooked on the surface of the edge portion of the panel, the slider does not come off from the side rail.

Further, even after the panel and the slider are inserted into the side rail, the slider can move along the side rail and can also move relative to the panel. You can choose freely. Therefore, it is possible to insert a plurality of panels into the side rail in a lump and then to insert a plurality of sliders in a bundle, which makes the work extremely easy.

When setting the separation distance between the panels, open the two panels a little wider in advance, move the slider there, and bend the claws toward the side rails facing each other. , The slider is moved so that the side edge of the bent claw portion comes into contact with the end surface of one panel serving as a reference, and the other panel is brought closer to the slider, and the end surface of this panel is set to the other side edge of the claw portion. Upon abutment, the panels can be easily and accurately spaced apart to the desired dimensions.

It is composed of claw portions 44d, 44e, 44f that are formed. The width dimension of the central claw portion 44e of the three claw portions is set to a desired eaves ceiling panel spacing dimension. The tip of each of 44d to 44f is horizontally bent in the same direction as the leg 44a extends.

In this embodiment, the slider 44 is used in a connecting portion of the two eaves units 20 at a portion for connecting the eaves ceiling panels 25 of the both eaves units 20. The method of connecting the eaves units 20 will be described below.

First, both eaves units 20 are equipped with eaves ceiling panels 25. In this state, the end surface of the eaves ceiling panel 25 and the end surfaces of the side rails 41, 42 are flush with each other. However, the eaves ceiling panel 25 is not fixed to both the side rails 41 and 42, but is set in the moving direction in the longitudinal direction of the side rails 41 and 42. And
As shown in FIG. 6, the slider 44 is inserted into the opening A of the second side rail 42 of the one eaves unit 20. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the leg portion 44a of the slider 44 is connected to the edge surface of the eaves ceiling panel 25 and the first horizontal portion 42a of the second side rail 42.
Loosely insert the arm 44b of the slider 44 into the eaves ceiling panel 2
It is loosely inserted between the edge side surface of 5 and the upright portion 42b of the second side rail 42. At this time, the collar portion 44c of the slider 44 is located above the second horizontal portion 42c of the second side rail 42. The slider 44 attached in this manner is movable in the longitudinal direction of the second side rail 42 in the opening A of the second side rail 42 and is movable relative to the eaves ceiling panel 25. Also, the legs of the slider 44
Since the slider 44a is locked to the eaves ceiling panel 25, the slider 44 is prevented from popping out and being lost. The length of the opening portion A of the second side rail 42 along the longitudinal direction of the second side rail 42 is sufficient to accommodate the slider 44.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, both eaves units 20 are lifted by a crane or the like, each bracket 21 is bolted to the upper beam 11 of the room unit 10, and the eaves unit 20 is fixed to the room unit 20.
Fixed at 10. In this state, the distance between the two eaves units 20 is slightly larger than the desired distance between the eaves ceiling panels.

Next, the slider 44 attached to the second side rail 42 of one eaves unit 20 is moved in a direction of approaching the other eaves unit 20, and one end of the slider 44 is moved to the second side of the other eaves unit 20. The slider 44 is inserted into the opening A of the rail 42, and the slider 44 is bridged over the opening A of the second side rails 42 of the both housing units 20, and the central claw portion 44e of the slider 44 is located between the both housing units 20, 20. Position it.

Then, the claw portion 44e of the slider 44 is bent from its root toward the first side rail 41. Second
7 and 8 show a state in which the claw portion 44e is bent.

Next, the slider 44 is brought close to one eaves unit 20, and one side edge of the claw portion 44e of the slider 44 is brought into contact with the end surface of the eaves ceiling panel 25 of the eaves unit 20.

Next, the eaves ceiling panel 25 of the other eaves unit 20 is moved in a direction of approaching the one eaves unit 20, and the end face thereof is brought into contact with the other side edge of the slider 44.

With this, it is possible to accurately set the spacing dimension of the eaves ceiling panels 25 of the both eaves unit 20 to a desired dimension.

After this, the eaves ceiling panel 25 of each eaves unit 20 is immovably fixed to the side rails 41, 42 by appropriate means, and the joint material 50 is attached to the gap between the eaves ceiling panels 25. The joint material 50 is made of a flexible synthetic resin and has a substantially vertical cross section, and as shown in FIGS. 5 and 8, the joint material 50 is pushed into the gap from above the eaves ceiling panels 25, 25, As shown in FIG. 9, the lower horizontal piece 50a is inserted while bending against its elasticity. The joint material 50 has the eaves ceiling panel 25 separated from each other by a predetermined dimension, so that the joint material 50 is sandwiched between the two eaves ceiling panels 25 with an appropriate strength, and the joint material 50 does not come off after the mounting. Also, the appearance is very good.

This invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modes can be adopted.

For example, the target panel is not limited to the eaves ceiling panel, but can be applied to various panels such as wall panels.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the example is used for setting the spacing dimension of the panels between the units, but it can also be adopted when a plurality of panels are arranged on a pair of side rails. In that case, insert multiple panels into the side rail first, then insert multiple sliders together, and then move each slider to the desired location and bend the slider tabs. By abutting the ends of the panel from both sides, the panel interval can be set easily and accurately.

[Effect of the Invention] As described above, the present invention has the following excellent effects.

That is, even after the panel and the slider are inserted into the side rail, the slider can move along the side rail and can move relative to the panel.
The insertion order of the panel and the slider on the side rail can be freely selected. Therefore, it is possible to insert a plurality of panels into the side rail first and then to insert a plurality of sliders together, which is an excellent effect that the work becomes very easy.

In addition, when setting the panel spacing, leave a slight gap between the two panels in advance, move the slider there, and bend the claws toward the opposing side rails. By moving the slider so that the side edge of the bent claw portion comes into contact with the end surface of one panel, the other panel is brought closer to the slider and the end surface of this panel is brought into contact with the other side edge of the claw portion. The excellent effect that the panels can be easily and accurately arranged with a desired distance between them can be achieved.
