Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a skylight, and more particularly to a skylight provided with an operating section for locking, unlocking, and opening/closing the locking fittings of a sliding shoji that is configured to be openable and closable in a roof opening.

Generally, transparent panels such as glass installed in skylights are often fixed, but in the summer there is a need to release the heat accumulated indoors to the outside to adjust the temperature, or there is a need for ventilation for sanitary reasons. Therefore, it is preferable that the skylight also be constructed so that it can be opened and closed. However, if the skylight is constructed so that it can be opened and closed, there is a risk that insects may enter through the opening during the summer when it is opened, and it must be locked when it is closed. To prevent insects, it is sufficient to install an insect screen below the opening of the skylight.
In this case, the insect screen becomes an obstacle to locking, unlocking, and opening/closing operations of the translucent plate of the skylight.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and proposes an operating device that is particularly equipped with an opening shoji screen and that can easily open, close, unlock, and lock the opening shoji from below the insect screen. The purpose is to

That is, in the present invention, a rectangular base frame is provided over an opening formed in the roof, and an opening shoji is attached to the top of the base frame so that it can be opened and closed, while a screen frame is attached to the inside of the lower part of the machine frame via a mounting bracket. An insect repellent screen having the following features is detachably attached, and the mounting bracket is provided with an operating section below the insect repellent screen for operating the opening/closing and locking fittings of the opening shoji.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Note that FIG. 1 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of a skylight equipped with an operating device according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a partial cross-sectional view thereof.

In the figure, symbol A indicates a skylight. This skylight A
A base frame 3 made of aluminum or its alloy is fastened and fixed on a window sill 2 provided at the peripheral edge of a roof opening 1, and a sliding shoji 4 is mounted on the base frame 3 so that it can be opened and closed freely and as described below. The insect screen 5 is removably attached to the inside of the lower part of the base frame 3 via the mounting fittings 47 and 48, and the mounting fitting 47 is used to open and close the shoji 4 and to operate the locking fitting. It is configured to form part 6. Note that 1a is a roofing material.

The insect screen 5 is a frame, and is removably attached to cover the lower surface of the opening formed by the base frame 3. The opening/closing, locking, and unlocking of the opening shoji 4 is operated from the operating section 6.

Next, the above skylight A configuration will be explained in detail.

First, the base frame 3 has a mounting edge 8 protruding inward from the lower part of a main body frame 7 configured as a framework, and a draining edge 9 provided around the lower outer circumference. 7a and an outer member 7b are integrally connected by screws through a heat insulating material 11 such as a synthetic resin, and a frame member is formed into a rectangular shape. The inner member 7a or the outer member 7b is provided with a hollow portion 1 as appropriate for reinforcing the strength and forming a heat insulating air layer.
0 is formed. Inner member 7a and outer member 7
b and the heat insulating material 11, as shown in the figure, the heat insulating material 11 is fitted and held in one member 7b, and the heat insulating material 11 is connected to the insert formed in the other member 7a. It is sufficient to insert the pieces 12 and connect them together. However, other means such as adhesion may be used. By coupling the inner member 7a and the outer member 7b through the heat insulating material 11 in this way, the outer member 7b that contacts the cold outdoor air and the inner member 7a that contacts the indoor warm air are insulated from each other, so that the main body frame 7 is less likely to cause condensation.

A mounting edge 8 is formed protruding from the lower inner side of the main body frame 7. When the base frame 3 is mounted on the window sill 2, the mounting edge 8 is placed on the window sill 2 and fixed with screws. In the above body frame configuration, the attachment edge 8 may be integrally formed to protrude inward from the lower end of the inner member 7a. However, the attachment edge 8 and the main body frame 7 do not necessarily have to be integrally formed. Of course, it is also possible to have a structure in which separately molded parts are joined together by screwing, welding, or the like. Moreover, the main body frame 7 does not necessarily have to have a double structure of inner and outer members 7a and 7b. Furthermore, an overhanging protrusion 1 is provided on the outer lower side of the base frame 3.
3 is larger than the outer shape of the window sill 2. Therefore, since the window sill 2 is configured to be housed within the ridge 13, when the base frame 3 is placed on the window sill 2, the position of the base frame 3 on the window sill 2 is controlled by the ridge 13. can be confirmed, the positioning of the base frame 3 is easy, and the base frame 3 does not come off the window sill 2 even in strong winds. In addition, in the body frame structure of the example shown, the said projecting edge 13 should just be provided at the lower end of the inner member 7a.

Further, a draining edge 9 is vertically provided below the outer circumference of the outer member 7b of the main body frame 7, and this draining edge 9 surrounds the upper portion of the outer circumferential surface of the window sill 2. An airtight piece 16 is fitted inside the lower end of the draining edge 9 to maintain airtightness between the draining edge 9 and the outer peripheral surface of the window sill 2. Since the draining edge 9 is configured to surround the outer circumference of the window sill 2 in this way, rainwater that has flowed down along the outer surface of the base frame 3 falls from the lower end of the draining edge 9 and flows inside the window sill 2. There will be no intrusion. Note that 14a and 14b are condensed water drain ports.

Next, an opening shoji 4 is disposed above the base frame 3. The opening shoji 4 is pivotally supported on one side by the base frame 3, and is configured to be able to open and close by rotating around the pivot. For this reason, a hinge receiving portion 17 is provided protrudingly outward from the inclined upper side of the base frame 3.
On the other hand, as will be described later, a hinge element 35 provided on one side of the opening shoji 4 is pivotally supported by the hinge receiving portion 17. Furthermore, an airtight and heat insulating member 22 is fitted upwardly into the upper end of the base frame 3.

The opening shoji 4 is made up of a translucent plate holding frame 19 that holds double upper and lower translucent plates 15a and 15b. A transparent plate fitting groove 18 opening inward is formed in the upper inner periphery, and the upper transparent plate 15a is fitted and held in the groove 18. Furthermore, a fitting recess 21 for the lower transparent plate mounting frame 20 is provided in the lower part thereof. A heat insulating airtight material 27 is fitted downward into the upper bottom of this fitting recess 21, and the lower transparent plate mounting frame 20 is fitted in contact with this airtight material 27, and fixed with screws. Ru. The lower light-transmitting plate mounting frame 20 is framed in advance, and a lower light-transmitting plate 15b such as a wired glass plate is fitted into a fitting groove 25 circumferentially provided inside the frame body 20. The lower light-transmitting plate mounting frame 20 having the above configuration is fitted into the fitting recess 21 of the light-transmitting plate holding frame 5, and the lower light-transmitting plate mounting frame 20 is fitted into the fitting recess 21 and screwed from the mounting frame 20 to the holding frame 5. It is easy to work because all you have to do is hold it in place and secure it in place. Therefore, semi-finished products such as those described above can be transported to the site and assembled easily and quickly, making transportation easier. In addition, the lower transparent plate 15b is configured to be housed in an encircling manner under the transparent plate holding frame 19, which is preferable for rain protection, has excellent strength, and can withstand shocks when the opening shoji 4 is opened and closed. It will be done. In the illustrated example, the lower transparent plate mounting frame 20 is fixed to the transparent plate holding frame 19 with screws, so the frame 2
0 is easy to attach and detach, and repair work is also easy.

Further, a draining plate 34 is appropriately fixed to the outer periphery of the transparent plate holding frame 19, and the lower end of the draining plate 34 protrudes below the holding frame 19 to form a draining edge 9.
It constitutes a. In this way, the transparent plate holding frame 1
The draining edge 9a extending below the outer periphery of the frame 9 prevents rainwater from flowing inward through the outer surface of the holding frame 19, and surrounds the upper part of the outer periphery of the base frame 3. Rainwater can be prevented from directly blowing between the holding frame 19 and the base frame 3, and rain protection is improved.

The opening shoji 4 having the above structure is rotatably mounted on the base frame 3, and a hinge element 35 is integrally protruded inside the draining edge 9a at the lower end of the inclined upper frame. It is pivotally attached to the hinge receiving portion 17 of the frame 3. Therefore, the opening shoji 4 is opened and closed by rotating around the pivot portion. Since the pivot joint is provided inside the draining edge 9a, it is watertight and
Improves airtightness. Moreover, since the hinge element 35 and the hinge receiving part 17 are integrally formed with the opening shoji 4 and the base frame 3, respectively, there is no need to attach a separate hinge member. Furthermore, since the outer shape of the hinge element 35 has a circular arc-shaped curved surface configuration that matches the inner shape of the hinge receiving portion 17, the two are in close contact with each other, and rainwater does not enter the interior through the pivot joint. I can't.

As described above, the opening shoji 4 is configured to be rotatable about the pivot portion by the extension force of the gas spring 36. This gas spring 36 opens both ends and is fixed to the shoji 4 and the base frame 3,
The opening shoji 4 is opened by the stretching force. However, the opening/closing of the sliding shoji 4 does not necessarily have to depend on the gas spring 36. On the other hand, a locking fitting 37 is attached to the base frame 3 and the inclined lower end of the opening shoji 4 to restrict opening and closing of the opening shoji 4. That is, the metal fitting 37 has a receiving metal fitting 37a fixed to the inner surface of the inner member 7a of the base frame 3, and a receiving hole 40a and a receiving piece 40b are formed in the receiving metal fitting 37a, while the lower bottom surface of the opening shoji 4, that is, the lower transparent A push-type latch fitting 37b is fixed to the lower surface of the light plate mounting frame 20, and the pin 41 of the latch fitting 37b is inserted into and engaged with the receiving hole 40a of the receiving fitting 37a, thereby locking the frame. . An operating hanger 42 is attached to one end of the latch fitting 37b and hangs downward. By pulling down this hanging tool 42, the pin control part 43 at the tip of the latch metal fitting 37b is moved to the receiving piece 40b of the receiving metal fitting 37a.
This pressure causes the pin 41 to protrude laterally or retract into the inside of the metal fitting. Therefore, when unlocking the locked pin 41,
By pulling down the hanger 42, the pin 41 is retracted to unlock the door, and the shoji 4 is released by the stretching force of the gas spring 36. On the other hand, when closing the shoji 4, by pulling down the hanger 42 in the same way, the pin control section 43 hits the receiving piece 40b, and the impact causes the pin to protrude and lock.

Note that the locking means does not necessarily have to have the above-mentioned configuration, but may be any other known means as long as it can be locked and unlocked by operating from the indoor side.

Next, since the skylight is made to be openable and closable, it is necessary to protect against insects and operate the shoji and locking fittings. Below, we will explain the installation, locking, and unlocking of the insect screen in sequence.

First, there is a mounting bracket 4 inside the bottom of the base frame 3.
Insect screen attachment part 45 constituted by 7, 48
An insect screen 5 having a screen frame 51 is removably attached thereto. The mounting bracket 47 at the lower part of the slope has a groove 47a in the center, and the groove 47
Mounting pieces 47b and engagement grooves 47 on both sides of the upper end of a.
The mounting piece 47 is placed on a support base 49 fixed in advance inside the window sill 2, and fixed to the upright portion 46 of the base frame 3, and the engagement groove 47c is It opens on the inside of the opening 1.
The mounting brackets 48 on the inclined upper part and the vertical side part are formed by bending a mounting piece 48a and a contact piece 48b into an L shape, and the mounting piece 48a is attached to the upright part 46 of the base frame 3.
The contact piece 48b protrudes inward. On the other hand, the insect repellent net 5 has a net material 52 inside the net frame 51.
A projecting edge 53 is formed to protrude laterally from the lower end surface of the mesh frame 51. Furthermore, an engaging metal fitting 54 that protrudes laterally by a spring action is attached to the inclined upper part of the frame 51. When attaching the insect screen 5 having the above structure to the mounting portion 45 formed in the base frame 3, first
When the projecting edge 53 of the lower part of the sloping part 1 is engaged with the engagement groove 47c of the mounting fitting 47, and then the upper part of the sloping part is strongly pushed up toward the mounting part, the engaging part 54 is brought into contact with the abutting piece 4.
It is temporarily retracted by the impact that hits the end of 8b,
The upper part of the abutting piece 48b protrudes again and engages with the abutting piece 48b. In this way, by engaging the upper and lower parts of the slope, the insect screen 5
is fixed in the opening 1. At this time, the projecting edges 53 of the inclined upper part and the vertical side part are attached to the mounting bracket 4.
Since it is in contact with the tip abutting piece 48b of No. 8, no gap is created in the attachment portion 45 for insects to enter. Furthermore, if the engaging metal fittings 54 are constructed so that they can be retracted by operating from the inside, the insect screen 5 can be easily attached and detached, and the insects that have accumulated on the top of the insect screen 5 can be killed, dust, etc. Dust, etc. can be removed. Moreover, when it is removed, it can be removed while keeping it in a nearly horizontal position, so unlike insect screens that roll up or open and close with rotation like the opening shoji 4, there is no possibility of insect carcasses being rolled up or dropped. Since there is no such thing, it is possible to keep the room clean and easy to handle. However, the configuration of the insect screen 5 is not necessarily limited to what is illustrated.

Next, in the groove 47a of the mounting fitting 47,
An operating section 6 is formed to operate the locking fitting 37 and to open and close the opening shoji. That is, at the bottom of the groove 47a, there is an opening 5 for inserting the operating means 42 such as an operating chain at the inner side.
Further, guide rollers 55 and 56 for guiding the means 42 to the opening 59 are installed in the groove 47a, and the means 42 passes between the guide rollers 55 and 56 to the opening. 59 and hangs down to a position where it can be operated with a guide. Therefore, when operating the locking metal fitting 37, it is possible to lock and unlock it by appropriately operating an operating means such as a hanger from the guide side. Furthermore, with the above configuration, the locking metal fitting 37 can be operated without regard to the attachment and detachment of the insect screen 5, so the insect screen 5 does not pose any obstacle to the operation of the locking metal fitting 37. It should be noted that a flexible plate-like material (not shown) made of rubber, synthetic resin, etc. with an appropriate cut cut is stretched over the hanging tool insertion opening 59, and the operating tool 42 is inserted through this cut. , the opening narrows further;
Insects etc. cannot enter through the opening.

Incidentally, since the insect screen is not necessarily limited to the above-mentioned configuration, the configuration of the mounting fittings that form the insect screen attachment portion and the operation opening of the base frame 3 is also not limited to the illustrated example.

As described above, since the operating portion 6 is formed on the mounting bracket 47, there is no need to process the base frame 3 to operate the opening shoji 4. Furthermore, the opening shoji 4 can be operated without opening or closing the insect screen 5. moreover,
The insect screen 5 can be attached and detached separately from the locking fitting operation. That is, as in the above embodiment, the locking fitting operating tool 42 is penetrated by the opening 59 of the mounting fitting 47 fixed to the base frame 3, whereas the insect screen 5 forms this opening 59. Since it is attached to the insect screen attachment fittings 47, even if the insect screen 5 is removed, the operating section 6 remains fixed to the base frame, and the operating means is not affected in any way.
On the other hand, when the insect screen 5 and the operating opening 59 are integrated, the operating opening 59 also moves with the locking fitting operating means 42 inserted as the insect screen 5 is removed, making it difficult to handle. becomes complicated.
In addition, each time the operating means is moved, it comes into contact with the opening, so when the insect screen and the operating opening are integrated, frictional resistance acts on the opening, causing bending deformation and positional shift in the screen frame, etc. However, in the case of a separate structure, only the operation opening portion can be firmly fixed to the base frame, so that the above-mentioned frictional resistance can be sufficiently countered.

In addition, although the example in which one side of the insect screen is directly attached to the mounting lock forming the opening 59 for operating the locking metal fitting has been described above, a partition frame ( (not shown) may be constructed, and a structure (not shown) provided with an insect screen and an operating opening may be independently attached to the partition frame.

As described above in detail, according to the present invention, since the operating portion is formed on the mounting bracket, there is no need to process the base frame to operate the opening shoji. In addition, since the operation of locking or unlocking the retractable skylight can be performed independently of the attachment and detachment of the insect screen, it is easy to handle, and the insect screen will not be deformed due to the operation of the locking metal fittings. Therefore, the insect repellent function is maintained and the durability is improved.
