Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a sliding guide device for fittings mainly used indoors.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, sliding pieces made of synthetic resin have been provided at the bottom of fittings such as sliding doors and shoji screens used indoors in order to reduce friction with thresholds.

However, in conventional fittings equipped with sliding pieces, the contact area of the sliding pieces is increased to reduce damage to thresholds and the like.

For this reason, a large amount of force is required to open and close the fittings, and when they are opened and closed, they make a loud sliding noise, which can be annoying for indoor fittings, and may also cause dust to adhere to the sliding pieces. There were problems such as increased opening/closing force and damage to the sill.

This invention was made for the purpose of eliminating such problems, and it provides a sliding guide device for fittings in which a roller is provided on a part of the sliding piece so that the roller comes into contact with the sill surface. This reduces sliding noise and allows the fittings to be opened and closed with less force.

This invention will be described in detail below with reference to an illustrated embodiment.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a fitting such as a shoji screen that is mainly used indoors, and is composed of a vertical stile 2 and an upper and lower stile 3 that laterally connects the upper and lower end surfaces of the vertical stile 2.

The vertical stile 2 and the upper and lower stile 3 are connected to each other by a screw 4 screwed in from the stile 2 side, and sliding pieces 8 are provided at the lower part of both ends of the lower stile 3 via the adjusting lower stile 5. is installed.

The adjustable lower stile 5 is inserted from the lower opening side of the lower stile 3, and comes into contact with a height adjuster (not shown) provided at the bottom of the lower stile 3, and the height can be freely adjusted by this height adjuster. It can be adjusted to

Further, on the inner surface of the lower part of the lower adjustment frame 5, protrusions 7 are provided to protrude laterally at positions facing each other, and grooves 9 of the sliding pieces 8 are fitted into these protrusions 7.

The entire sliding piece 8 is made of a synthetic resin having slipperiness, and a mounting block 10 that can be fitted to the lower part of the vertical frame 2 is integrally formed on one end side. A screw 11 is screwed into a part of the frame toward the lower stile 3 side.

This screw 11 is for fixing the sliding piece 8 to the fittings 1, and can be rotated with a tool such as a screwdriver through a through hole 12 opened on the outer surface of the vertical stile 2. It protrudes from a notch 13 formed in the vertical stile 2 toward the lower stile 3 side, and is screwed into a fixing plate 14 provided on the lower stile 3 side. The sliding piece 8 is fixed by clamping the lower part of the sliding piece 8.

On the other hand, a guide portion 1T, which is slightly narrower than the groove 16 of the sill 15, is formed in the lower part of the sliding piece 8, and a pair of rollers 18 are installed in this guide portion 17, spaced apart in the direction of movement of the fitting 1, so that the pin 1
It is rotatably supported by 9.

Some of the surfaces of these rollers 18 are slightly protruded from the bottom surface of the sliding piece 8, and are configured to roll on the sill 15 when the fitting 1 is opened or closed.

As described in detail above, in this invention, the roller 18 is rotatably provided on the sliding piece 8 that guides the fitting 1 along the groove 16 of the sill 15 when the fitting 1 is opened or closed. Threshold 1
Compared to conventional fittings that open and close by slidingly contacting the fittings 5, the fittings 1 can be opened and closed with less force, and the sliding noise generated when opening and closing can be significantly reduced.

This reduces the risk of the sliding sound becoming harsh when used indoors, and also prevents dust from adhering to the sliding piece 8, which increases the force required for opening and closing and prevents dust from forming. The threshold 15 will not be damaged due to such reasons.

Also, for installation protruding from the sliding piece 8, screw 1 is attached to the block 10.
1 is provided, and this screw 11 is inserted into the notch 13 of the vertical stile 2, and the fixing plate 14 screwed into the screw 11 and the block 10 are installed.
Since the sliding piece 8 is attached by clamping the vertical stile 2 between the two, the height can be easily adjusted by simply loosening the screw 11, making it easy to install the fittings 1. In addition, since it can be attached to fittings 1 with a single screw,
The device itself can also be easily installed.

Moreover, since both ends of the lower adjustment stile 5 fitted into the lower stile 3 are clamped between the butts 10, there is no risk of the adjustment lower stile 5 getting stuck when the fitting 1 is opened or closed.
