2. Description of the Related Art Handrails are provided along the walls of buildings to assist elderly and handicapped persons who cannot walk on their own. Generally, the handrail member 1 'is attached to the wall surface 9 with screws 6 so as to match the body edge 10 behind the wall surface 9 as shown in FIG.

[0003] By the way, up to now, the wall surface has generally been constructed by sticking a wallpaper to a base panel such as a plaster board, but recently, in order to improve the design of the wall surface, decorative processing is performed on the lower half of the wall surface. Increasingly, decorative wall materials called waist wall panels are attached.

[0004]

However, the waist wall panel and the handrail do not match in design, and the appearance is only one step away. Therefore, the present inventor has proposed a handrail device in which the shape of a construction member attached to the upper end portion of a waist wall panel is extended in a handrail shape as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-199758, so that the handrail is not conscious.

However, when the tapping screw is screwed in, since the handrail member is usually made of wood, wood chips generated by the screwing of the tapping screw from the back surface of the handrail member push the handrail member and the wall surface, and there is a gap between the handrail member and the wall surface. There has been a problem that a gap occurs and the mounting strength is reduced. In addition, there is also a problem that the head of the tapping screw is so large that the head of the tapping screw is very noticeable and impairs the appearance.

An object of the present invention is to provide a handrail member which can be designed in harmony with a lumbar wall panel installed on a wall surface, has a strong mounting strength, and has a good design after installation. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a waist wall structure.

The recess is formed at the back surface position which is formed in the same direction as the screw recess.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect, the handrail portion of the handrail member is formed of a soft material.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, a waist wall panel is attached along a wall surface, and a handrail portion is formed at an upper end portion of the waist wall panel such that a substantially central portion thereof projects toward the front side as viewed in cross section. A handrail member with a recess for screws formed on the front side of the upper and lower ends and a recess on the back side synchronized with the recess for screws is fixed to the trunk of the back of the wall surface with screws to cover the head of the screw. It is characterized by being covered with a member.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the third aspect, the covering member is colored in a color different from that of the handrail member.

[0011]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, even if wood chips come out from the back surface by screwing the tapping screw from the screw recess, the wood chips are accumulated in the recess of the handrail member and push the handrail member and the wall surface. There is no gap between the handrail member and the wall surface.

According to the invention described in claim 2 of the present invention, even if a person with a low grip strength such as an elderly person or a handicapped person slips on the handrail portion without slipping, even if the person falls down and hits the body against the handrail portion, it does not slip. Hard to injure because it is soft.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, a large tapping screw can be covered with the covering member to make the head inconspicuous.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the position of the handrail can be easily recognized even when a visually impaired person such as an elderly person or a handicapped person looks at the covering member.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below.
