Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a panel fixing device for fixing the edge of a panel in a rain door, a head panel of a door pocket, etc., and particularly for fixing the lower end of a panel to the lower stile of a storm door, a head panel of a door pocket, etc. It concerns a fixation device.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a panel fixing device that can securely and reliably fix the lower end of the panel to the lower stile.

As a conventional panel fixing device,
No. 738, Utility Model Application No. 42549, No. 42549, Utility Model Application No. 49-
No. 118540 and the like are generally known.

The one disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 118540/1986 requires the use of multiple horizontal beams in order to fix the panel in close contact with the outdoor side wall of the stile, which is very troublesome to assemble, and the horizontal If there is even a slight dimensional error in the frame, it is impossible to ensure that the panel adheres to the frame.

Moreover, what is shown in Utility Model Application Publication No. 42549/1983 is
This method simply fixes the end of the panel to the stile, and there is a risk that there will be a gap between the outside side wall of the stile and the end of the panel, which may allow debris to accumulate or rainwater to enter. As a result, the product value decreases.

Furthermore, since the fixtures are installed from above the stile, the panels get in the way and are difficult to install.

Furthermore, what is shown in Utility Model Application Publication No. 53-89738,
As in the conventional example (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 42549/1983), the fixture is attached from above the stile, so the panel gets in the way and is difficult to attach.

This idea was devised in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to easily fix the lower end of the panel to the lower stile, and also to ensure that the lower end of the panel comes into contact with the outdoor side wall of the lower stile. The purpose is to provide a panel fixing device that can be used.

This invention will be explained below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

Figure 1 is a front view showing the state in which the wavy panel D is fixed within the shutter frame according to this invention, and Figures 2 and 3 are A in Figure 1.
-A sectional view, B-B sectional view, Figure 4 is C- in Figure 3.
5 is a perspective view showing a fixture E according to this invention, and FIG. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a modification of this invention.

First, the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 2. In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a lower stile.

The lower stile 1 has a substantially H-shaped cross section.

A screw hole 3 is located at the upper end of the indoor side wall 2 of the lower stile 1.
is provided in one piece.

Reference numeral D indicates a wavy panel, and the lower end of the wavy panel D is shaped as shown in FIG.

That is, at the lower end of the wavy panel D, a flange 6 is provided which extends from the end of the base surface 5 parallel to the outdoor side wall 4 of the lower stile 1 at a substantially right angle toward the indoor side, and a lip 7 is suspended from the tip of the flange. I have let you.

Note that, of course, a normal plate-like panel may be used instead of the wavy panel D shown in the figure.

In FIG. 2, the symbol E indicates a fixture.

As shown in FIG. 5, the fixture E consists of a base portion 8 and a pressing portion 9.

The pressing portion 9 is provided with a wedge-shaped slope 10 that protrudes from the base 8 and extends toward the tip.

At least two mounting holes 11 into which the fixtures E are to be fitted are bored in the lower stile 1.

Then, fit the fixture E into the mounting hole 11...
The lower end of the panel D is fixed to the lower frame 1.

The method of fixing the lower end of the wavy panel D to the lower frame 1 will now be described.

First, the base surface 5 at the lower end of the wavy panel D is brought into contact with the inside of the outdoor side wall 4 of the lower stile 1.

Next, the fixture E is fitted into the lower stile 1 (L11).

Then, the slope 10 of the pressing part 9 of the fixture E is attached to the panel D.
Press it against the lip 7 at the lower end of the holder.

Then, the lower end of the panel D is held between the outdoor side wall 4 of the lower stile 1 and the pressing part 9 of the fixture E, and is fixed to the lower stile 1.

By the way, as shown in Figs. 2, 3, and 6, the fixture E
When the screw is inserted into the mounting hole 11 of the lower frame 1, the surface of the pressing portion 9 opposite to the slope 10 may be brought into contact with the screw hole 3.

Thereby, the lower end of the panel D can be firmly supported by the outdoor side wall 4 of the lower stile 1 and the fixture E.

Further, it is preferable that the lip 7 at the lower end of the panel D be formed at a position distant from the base surface 5.

That is, it is preferable to form the flange 6 into a long length.

If the lip 7 is formed at a position apart from the base surface 5 as described above, elasticity can be imparted to the lower end of the panel D to be held between the outdoor side wall 4 of the lower stile 1 and the fixture E, and the panel D
can be firmly fixed to the lower frame 1.

This idea is based on the above precepts.

According to the panel fixing device according to this invention, the lower end of the panel has a flange extending approximately perpendicularly to the indoor side from the end of the base parallel to the outdoor side wall of the lower stile, and a flange that extends from the tip of the flange. Since the lower end of the panel is provided with a lip that is elastic, the lower end of the panel is elastic, and the fixture that presses against the lip is provided with a pressing part that has a wedge-shaped slope toward the tip. By pressing the pressing part of the fixture, the base surface of the lower end of the panel can be reliably brought into contact with the outdoor side wall of the lower stile.

Furthermore, since the fixture is attached from below the lower stile, the panel does not get in the way and can be easily attached with one touch.
