Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a frame material for a glass shoji screen made of extruded aluminum alloy. It is designed to be able to fit and support even a glass plate in a normal state.

It is well known that this type of frame material is provided with a bag portion on the end portion into which a glass plate is fitted, and that the glass plate is supported in the bag portion via a glass holder.

When supporting this glass plate, it is necessary to select a bag having an open opening according to the thickness of the glass plate.

That is, a glass plate is inserted into an opening formed between opposing end walls that constitute the bag, but a distance of 3 m/m or more is maintained between the glass plate and both end walls, and the distance between the end walls is It is said that the wall thickness at the tip must be at least 3 m/m, and a glass presser is press-fitted into this gap to secure it.

Therefore, when forming the frame material, the size of the opening of the bag part is determined by considering the thickness of the glass plate to be used.
Conventionally, it was necessary to prepare several types of frame materials for each size depending on the thickness of the glass plate.

In addition, if a glass shoji is made to order, but if there is a change in the design and it becomes necessary to fit a thick glass plate, a new one must be made using a frame material suitable for the glass plate. In some cases, the previously made shoji was wasted.

This invention was devised to deal with the above-mentioned drawbacks, and is characterized in that the width of the opening of the bag portion can be adjusted according to the thickness of the glass plate. As an example, as shown in FIG. 1, 1 is a frame main body, 2 is a bag part, and the bag part 2 has both side walls 3 and 4 and an end wall 5 which is bent from the side walls 3 and 4 and faces each other. 6, and both end walls 5,
6 is similar to the conventional one, but basically both side walls 3, 4 and both end walls 5, 6 are formed to have almost the same wall thickness, and both end walls 5 , 6 are provided with several protruding stripes 8 protruding from their tips with gaps between them.

Therefore, the wall thickness of the end walls 5 and 6 and the protrusion amount of the protrusion 8 are 3 m/
m or more, and the protrusion 8 is formed on the left end wall 5 by 3 m or more.
Two strips may be provided on the right end wall 6, or the same number of strips may be provided on both end walls 5, 6 as shown in FIG. is provided integrally with the side wall 3.4 so as to protrude in a step-like manner, but as shown in FIG.
may not be provided.

In the figure, numeral 9 indicates a glass plate, and numeral 10 indicates a glass presser.

This invention has the above structure, and when the glass plate 9 is supported on the bag portion 2, it is attached by the glass presser 10 in the same manner as before, but as the thickness of the glass plate 9 increases, The lower open area is widened by cutting out the trough portions of the end walls 5, 6 following the protruding stripes 8.

Therefore, as an example of changing the width of the open lower by cutting the end walls 5 and 6, in the case of the example shown in Fig. 1, the end walls 5 and 6 are not cut. It can be changed into four types from A to D, and in the example shown in FIG. 2, it can be changed into eight types in addition to being used as is.

However, in the figure, A, C, and B are taken. F and G each have the same open lower.

Moreover, in the example shown in FIG. 3, it can be changed into two types in addition to its use.

However, it goes without saying that the number of protrusions 8 can vary beyond the above example, but the thickness of the glass plate used in practice ranges from a minimum of 2 m/m to approximately 20 m/m such as double glass. There are some that are close to m, but there are not many types of lids between them, so the example shown in the figure is sufficient.

As described above, the frame material of the glass shoji according to this invention has both end walls of the bag portion approximately the same thickness as the side walls, and several protruding stripes are provided on the end walls from the tip. When cutting the wall, since the wall thickness in the valley between the protrusions is thin, it is much easier to cut than a thick end wall where the entire end wall has the same thickness as the protrusions, and it is also easier to cut the material. This can lead to huge savings.

Furthermore, since several protruding stripes are provided, even if the end wall is cut, the protruding strip will remain at the tip, and even if the opening is widened, the thickness of the tip of the end wall will remain thick due to the predetermined protruding strip. It maintains the same dimensions, eliminates the need to produce separate frame materials depending on the thickness of the glass plate, and ensures that different glass plates can be supported correctly with one type of material. It is.
