Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a connection device between a waterproof floor in a bathroom or the like and a panel material placed on the upper edge thereof, and in particular,
The present invention relates to a connection device between a waterproof floor and a panel material, which prevents water leakage from the connecting portion and which can easily and reliably connect the waterproof floor and the panel material.

Conventionally, various devices have been proposed for connecting waterproof floors and panel materials, but they have a structure in which the waterproof floors are directly attached using screws, etc., and water may leak from that part, and there are also problems in terms of construction. It was not something to be satisfied with.

The present invention uses floor connectors with a special structure, and by making the joint edge of the waterproof floor connected to the lower end of the panel material have a special structure, the connecting part between the waterproof floor and the panel material is The connection device prevents water leakage and also improves construction.

An embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the connected state, FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the connected state, and FIG. 3 is a partially cutaway perspective view of the floor connector. In the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the bent side edges 2 of adjacent panel members 1 are butted with a joint material 3 interposed between them. Adjacent panel members 1 are connected by pinching the bent side edges 2 from the outside with vertical joint holding tools 4. Although the longitudinal joint clamping tool 4 is illustrated as having a U-shaped cross section and a long length, it may be of any type as long as it can clamp the bent side edge 2 and connect adjacent panel materials 1. In addition, the joint material 3 and the vertical joint clamping tool 4
are fixed with screws 5, but the invention is not limited to this. Although not shown, they may be secured by other means. On the other hand, the waterproof floor 6 has a joint edge 8 formed above the dish portion 7. The joining edge 8 is the dish part 7
It is formed in a protruding state on the outer periphery above the panel material 1, so that the panel material 1 can be placed thereon. Further, the joining edge 8 has a rising edge 9 and a downward projecting edge 10 hanging down from the lower end thereof. The panel material 1 connected as described above is placed on the joint edge 8 of this waterproof floor 6. Next, the waterproof floor 6 and the panel material 1 are connected using the floor connector 11. Floor connector 11
As illustrated in FIG. 7, the joint cover piece 12,
A downward locking piece 13 and an elastic locking piece 14 are respectively formed. This joint covering piece 12 is a flat plate-like member that protrudes upward approximately at the center, and is adapted to come into contact with the outer surface of the vertical joint clamping tool 4 . The downward locking pieces 13 of the floor connector 11 are bent downward at both ends in the middle, and are configured to lock onto the rising edge 9 of the joint edge 8 of the waterproof floor 6. Further, the elastic locking pieces 14 are provided at both ends of the lower part, and one portion is formed into an upward circular arc, so that the elastic locking pieces 14 are elastically locked against the downward projecting edge 10 of the joining edge 8. ing. That is, the floor connector 11 can elastically clamp the rising end edge 9 and the downward projecting edge 10 of the joint edge 8 in the vertical direction by the downward locking piece 13 and the elastic locking piece 14, and also allows the joint edge 8 to It is designed to be detachable. The joint covering piece 12 of this floor connector 11 is brought into contact with the surface of the vertical joint holding tool 4. In addition, the downward locking piece 13 of the floor connector 10 is attached to the waterproof floor 6.
At the same time as being locked to the rising end edge 9 of the joining edge 8,
The side portions of the elastic locking pieces 14 are strongly pressed in the horizontal direction toward the waterproof floor 6 to lock the elastic locking pieces 14 to the downward projecting edge 10 of the joining edge 8. Next, the joint covering piece 12 that has come into contact with the vertical joint clamping tool 4 is fixed to the vertical joint clamping tool 4. Then, the waterproof floor 6 and the panel material 1 are integrally and watertightly connected.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, the screw 15 is inserted from the waterproof floor 6 side at a position above the rising edge 9 of the joining edge 8.
Although the joint material 3, the vertical joint clamping tool 4, and the joint covering piece 12 are fixedly attached using the joint material 3, the joint material 3, the vertical joint clamping tool 4, and the joint covering piece 12 are fixedly attached. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Although not shown, the bent side edge of the panel material, the joint material, and the vertical joint clamping tool are fixed,
The joint covering piece of the floor connector may be fixed only to the vertical joint clamping tool. Furthermore, the floor connectors and the like used in the present invention are not limited to those illustrated. For example, the downward locking piece and the elastic locking piece of the floor connector may be of any type as long as they can elastically clamp the rising end 9 of the joining edge 8 and the downward projecting edge 10 in the vertical direction. However, the illustrated elastic locking piece 14 is preferable because it makes it easier to confirm that the locking piece 14 is completely locked to the downward projecting edge 10. Furthermore, the materials of panel materials, vertical joint clamps, waterproof floors, floor connectors, etc. are not limited. Their material may be synthetic resin or the like, and in particular, the vertical joint clamping tool and the floor connecting tool may be made of a corrosion-resistant metal such as aluminum.

In the figure, reference numeral 16 indicates a screw hole drilled in the vertical joint holding tool 4, and reference numeral 17 indicates a screw hole drilled in the joint covering piece 12 of the floor connector 11. Further, 18 indicates a gasket attached between the panel material 1 and the joint edge 8 of the waterproof floor 6.

As described above, the present invention allows adjacent panel materials to
Butt the bent side edges with a joint material in between,
Since the bent side edges are held and connected from the outside using vertical joint holding tools, the connection of the panel materials is reliable. Furthermore, the connected panel materials are placed on the joint edges of the waterproof floor and connected using floor connectors.
That is, the downward locking piece of the floor connector is locked to the rising edge of the joint edge of the waterproof floor, the elastic locking piece is locked to the downward projecting edge, and the joint covering piece is secured to the vertical joint holding tool. It is something to do.

In this way, the floor connector can easily fit into the joint edge of the waterproof floor. In addition, since the number of fastening points is extremely small, the connection between the waterproof floor and the panel material is easy and reliable. In addition, it is sufficient to attach the joint covering piece of the floor connector to the vertical joint clamping tool, and there is no need to directly attach the waterproof floor with screws, etc., so there is no risk of water leakage, etc.
It is useful as a connection device between a waterproof floor and panel material.
