Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a decorative window equipped with a decorative panel that also serves as a sunshade on the outdoor side of a normal rectangular window frame.

Although round windows or arched windows are excellent in terms of building decoration, they are very troublesome to construct. On the other hand, although square windows are easy to install and have high installation strength, their shape is rotten and they lack decorative qualities for buildings. Depending on the appearance of the building or the location of the window, it is often desirable to add some kind of decoration to the window.

In this way, this invention basically uses a square window, takes advantage of the ease of construction of a square window, and also attaches a decorative panel that covers at least a part of the periphery of the window opening on the outdoor side of the window frame. It is an object of the present invention to provide a decorative window that can easily have an appearance similar to a round window or an arch window, or any other arbitrary shape.

Next, an embodiment of this invention will be described based on the drawings. The window frame, which is indicated by the symbol F, is formed by framing the upper frame 1, the lower frame 2, and the left and right vertical frames 3, 3' into a rectangular shape by the usual method, as in the conventional case. Due to the structure, the glass shoji d ₁ and d ₂ can be built in a sliding manner, and if necessary, the screen door d ₃ can be slidably installed on the outdoor side of the glass shoji d ₁ and d ₂ . At the same time, a mounting edge 4 is formed to extend outward in a rectangular brim shape along a vertical plane common to each frame 1, 2, 3, 3'.
5, 6, 6' can be attached to the building with nails or screws 10 by abutting the outdoor sides of the lintel 7, window sill 8, columns 9, 9', respectively. Reference numeral 11 denotes nails or screws driven into the lintels 7, 8, 9, 9' from the inner side of each frame of the window frame.

According to this invention, each component frame of the window frame has a window opening on the outdoor side of the glass shoji d ₁ and d ₂ (including when a screen door is installed; the same shall apply hereinafter). A panel holding portion 12 having a groove opening inward is integrally formed.

That is, in the upper frame 1, the mounting edge 4 is located below the penetration portion of the nails, etc. 10, and the upper frame web 1
A hook-shaped ridge 12h that protrudes toward the outdoors is formed above a, and faces the tip of the hook-shaped ridge 12h below the connection part of the hook-shaped ridge with the mounting edge. A projecting edge 13h is formed, and the tip of the hooked edge 12h and the edge 13
h, a groove 14h that opens downward on the inside of the window opening, that is, along a plane parallel to the glass shoji.
is formed.

In addition, in the lower frame 2, the mounting edge 5
A hook-shaped protrusion 12s is formed above the penetrating portion of the nail, etc. 10 and below the lower frame web 2a to protrude outdoors, and a hook-shaped protrusion 12s is formed at the upper end of the mounting edge 5. A protruding edge 13s is formed opposite to the tip of the edge 12s, and between the tip of the hooked edge 12s and the protruding edge 13s, the inside of the window opening, that is, the upper frame. Said groove 14
A groove 14s opening opposite to h is formed.

Furthermore, in the vertical frame 3, similarly, on the inner side of the penetrating portion of the nail or the like 10 of the mounting edge 6, and
A hook-shaped protruding edge 12j is formed on the outside of the vertical frame webs 3a, 3a' and protrudes toward the outdoors, and protrudes at the inner end of the mounting edge 6 in opposition to the tip of the hook-shaped protruding edge 12j. A projecting edge 13j is formed between the tip of the hook-shaped projecting edge and the projecting edge 13j, and the direction along the vertical plane common to the grooves 14h and 14s of the upper and lower frames is in the direction of the other vertical frame 3'. Groove 14 opening to
j is formed. Although the vertical frame 3' is also formed in a symmetrical shape, in order to avoid duplication of explanation, the same reference numerals will be shown with a dash. Note that FIG. 3 is shown with the outdoor side facing upward in the paper.

As mentioned above, the panel holder 12 opens inside the window opening, which is made up of the hook-shaped ridges and ridges formed on each frame 1, 2, 3, 3', and the groove formed between them.
As shown in FIG. 1, this panel holding portion has an arched lower side 15a, an upper side 15b that is approximately equal to the upper side and both left and right sides of the rectangle of the window frame, and left and right sides 15c, 15c'. A decorative panel 15 having a decorative panel 15 can be attached to cover the upper part and both left and right sides of the window opening.
More specifically, this decorative panel 15 is made of a corrosion-resistant metal plate such as aluminum or steel, or a plastic or wooden board, and its upper side 15b is connected to the groove 15 of the panel holding portion of the upper frame.
h, and insert the left and right sides 15c, 15c' into the grooves 14j, 14 of the panel holding parts of the left and right vertical frames 3, 3'.
j' and drop it into the groove 14s of the panel holding part of the lower frame of a part of the lower end of the left and right sides 15c, 15c', and then Insert the screws 16h, 16j, 16j' through the holes previously provided in the projecting edges 12h, 12j, 12j', screw them into the decorative panel 15, bring the decorative panel in, and press it against the tip of each hook-shaped projecting edge. Decorative panel 1
5 is set as the window frame.

Firstly, the panel holding portion 12 has approximately the same expected width as the exterior material 18, and the window frame is attached by positioning the panel holding portion on the same plane as the exterior material cladding surface. , the panel holder does not protrude outdoors when installed. Therefore, a person walking near the outdoor window will not come into contact with or collide with the panel holding portion or the panel and be injured.

Secondly, since the panel holding part is provided on the outer peripheral side of the webs of the upper frame and the left and right vertical frames, the panel holding part is not visible from inside the room, giving a good interior appearance.

Thirdly, since the grooves of the panel holding portion are continuous in the longitudinal direction at least in the upper frame, left and right vertical frames, panels of any shape can be fitted and mounted;
Moreover, since the entire length of the edge of the panel is fitted, great mounting strength can be obtained and there is no need to worry about strong winds.

Note that if the decorative panel 15 does not seal the groove 14s of the panel holding part with the bottom frame as shown in FIG. 1, rainwater may enter the groove 14s during rain, so the hooked edge It is preferable to provide a drainage hole 17 in 12s as appropriate.

Moreover, since the hook-shaped protruding edge 12h is provided to protrude toward the outdoors from the middle part of the mounting edge 4 in the height direction, it functions as a drain. Further, it is preferable to provide a water cut edge 19 on the lower surface of the outdoor end of the hook-shaped protrusion 1s of the lower frame 2, and a structure in which the upper parting part of the exterior material 18 can be inserted between the water cut edge 19 and the mounting edge 5. By doing so, the rain protection at the bottom of the window is improved. Furthermore, vertical frame 3,
Also provided on the outdoor side of the hook-shaped edges 12j, 12j' of 3' are projecting edges 20, 20' that protrude outward, respectively.
By allowing the ends of the exterior material 18 to fit between the projecting edges and the mounting edges 6, 6', rain protection on both the left and right sides of the window is improved.

As described above, since the panel holding part is mounted on the same surface as the tensioning surface, it can also serve as a parting receiver for the exterior material, which has the advantage of facilitating exterior construction.

As shown in FIG. 1, the shape of the decorative panel is such that the arched lower side has a lower end at the lower frame, and
The left and right sides are not limited to having the same height as the vertical frames 3, 3'. As shown in FIG. 4, the lower end of the arched lower side 15a and the left and right sides 15c,
c' may be provided at an appropriate height of the vertical frames 3, 3'. In this case, since the lower frame 2 does not require a groove for holding the decorative panel, it is sufficient to have a simple cut edge 19 instead of a hooked edge, as shown in FIG. In addition, as shown in Figure 1, if the decorative panel is made of a board, it will have a covering effect, but as shown in Figure 4, a large number of horizontal bars are arranged at small intervals. It may be formed into a lattice shape. In this case, it serves as a sunshade and has translucency and ventilation, so it is suitable for summer. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4, in the case of a shallow arch-shaped decorative panel, if the panel is made of a board and the upper center protrudes toward the outdoors as shown in Figure 6, the sunshading effect can be achieved. It is also larger and more decorative.

Furthermore, as described above, if the lower frame is also provided with a panel holding portion, it is possible to attach the decorative panel 15 having a peripheral area as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. Since the periphery is held by the panel holding part, it can have sufficient strength against wind etc., and the window opening can be made into any shape such as a round window or a diamond shape. It is possible to create a decorative window with a novel shape and appearance not found in conventional windows.

The panel holding portion 12 may be provided on the indoor side of the window frame, and the decorative panel 15 may be attached to the indoor side. In this case, if the panel holding part is integrally provided on the inner periphery of the interior finish frame that serves as the interior finish parting catch, the panel holding part and the interior finish frame can be easily molded, and the exterior appearance of the indoor side of the window can be improved. This is further improved, and since the panel holding portion is located on the same surface as the interior material covering surface, the indoor space does not become narrow.

Further, among the frames constituting the window frame, it may be provided on all of the upper, lower, left and right vertical frames, on the upper, left and right vertical frames, only on the upper and lower frames, only on the left and right vertical frames, etc. Further, the means for attaching the decorative panel to the panel holding portion is not limited to the illustrated example, and any other well-known means may be used.

In addition, doors that can be attached to window frames are not limited to sliding doors.
It may also be a hinged door that opens on the side opposite to the side where the decorative panel is installed.

As shown in the above embodiments, at least the upper frame and the left and right vertical frames of the window frame are integrally provided with a panel holding part having a groove continuous in the longitudinal direction and opening inside the window opening, and the panel holding part Since the panel is fitted and fixed in place, Figures 1 and 4
As shown in Figures 6, 7, and 8, decorative panels having arbitrary heights and shapes within the range of window heights can be easily provided, creating a window appearance that has never been seen before. Novelty. It can be made unique and enhance the decorativeness. Furthermore, even when the panel holding parts are provided only on the top frame and the left and right vertical frames, since the grooves are continuous in the longitudinal direction, any type of decorative panel with a low opening surface blocking rate can be held on the top side and the left and right vertical frames. It can be firmly installed on both the left and right sides without worrying about it falling due to strong winds.

As described above, according to this invention, at least in the upper frame and left and right vertical frames of a rectangular window frame, a panel holding part having a groove that opens inside the window opening over the entire length in the longitudinal direction is integrated into the window frame. Since the decorative panel that covers at least a part of the periphery of the window opening is held in the panel holding part, it is easier to install and has greater installation strength than a circular window frame. By using a window frame, a decorative window with an appearance similar to a round window, an arch window, etc. can be easily obtained.

Firstly, the panel holding part has approximately the same expected width as the exterior material, and since the window frame is installed with the panel holding part located on the same plane as the exterior material installation surface, it is difficult to install the window frame. The panel holding part does not protrude outdoors when the Therefore, a person walking near the outdoor window will not come into contact with or collide with the panel holding portion or the panel and be injured.

Secondly, since the panel holding part is provided on the outer peripheral side of the webs of the upper frame and the left and right vertical frames, the panel holding part is not visible from inside the room, giving a good interior appearance.

Thirdly, since the grooves of the panel holding portion are continuous in the longitudinal direction at least in the upper frame, left and right vertical frames, panels of any shape can be fitted and mounted;
Since the entire length of the edge of the panel is fitted, great installation strength is achieved and there is no need to worry about strong winds.
