Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a storm door that can also be used as an edge stand in addition to functioning as a storm door.

In recent years, for example, shutter panels with a sanderch structure, in which the core material is made of a lightweight material such as urethane foam or honeycomb, and metal plates, etc. are attached on both sides, have been provided with a frame member around them, resulting in shutters with excellent heat insulation and strength. Although these shutters have been developed and have become extremely popular, they cannot be used for any purpose other than their original function, which is mainly to prevent crime at night or to prevent wind and rain from entering indoors. It was stored in a door bag.

This invention focuses on the excellent strength of storm shutters using the above-mentioned sanderch structure storm shutter panels, and uses a lightweight material such as foamed urethane or honeycomb as the core material, and has surface plates attached to both sides of the core material to achieve specific strength. In a storm door using a large sanderch structure panel as a storm door panel, at least a pair of support leg storage sections opening on one side are provided at appropriate ends of the storm door panel, and one end of the support leg storage sections is extendable and retractable. By folding the base end of the constructed support leg and pivoting it so that it can stand up, for example, during the day when the storm door is not in use,
The purpose of this invention is to propose a shutter that can also be used as a bench for children's play areas, etc.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 to 3, 1 is a shutter that also serves as a veranda, and this shutter that also serves as a veranda is made of foamed urethane,
A lightweight structural material such as honeycomb is used as the core material 2, and surface plates 3, 3 made of flat metal plates such as aluminum and iron are provided on both sides of the core material 2.
It is composed of a shutter panel 4 having a sanderch structure attached with adhesive and a frame member 5 provided around the shutter panel 4. A pair of support leg storage portions 6, 6 are embedded in both ends of the upper edge of the storm door panel 4 along the longitudinal direction of the storm door panel 4 and open to the outer surface.

7, 7 are supporting legs, and these supporting legs 7, 7
are the script body 8 and the lower end flange 8a of the script body 8, respectively.
The leg adjustment member 9 has a flange 9a at the upper end that engages with the leg adjustment member 9, and a female screw portion 9b at the lower end, and a male screw portion 10a at the upper portion that screws into the female screw portion 9b of the leg adjustment member 9.
The base end of the script body 8 is connected to a support leg storage portion by a mounting pin 11. It is pivoted to the upper end of 6 so that it can be folded up and erected.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a support member for maintaining the upright state of the support leg 7. The base end of this support member 12 is rotatably pivoted to approximately the center of the side wall of the support leg storage portion 6, and the support member 12 has a base end rotatably attached to the substantially center of the side wall of the support leg storage portion 6, and a lower end of the support member 12. A locking portion 12a is formed which engages with a locking pin 13 protruding from the side of the script body 8.

Reference numeral 14 denotes a lid that can be opened and closed via screws 15, 15, and a stopper 16 provided at its free end is hooked to a receiving metal fitting (not shown) provided on the shutter panel 4. It is configured to maintain the closed state by doing so.

Note that reference numerals 17 and 18 are locking members provided in the support leg accommodating portion 6 to maintain the stored state of the support leg 7 and the support member 12, respectively.

Since the rain door that also serves as a pedestal of the present invention is constructed as described above, it is currently used as a pedestal-cum-storage door 1 that is in its normal state, that is, a pedestal-cum-storage door that is fitted to a rail (not shown) and used as a storm door. 1 as an edge stand, first, remove the storm door 1 that also serves as an edge stand from the rail (not shown), open the lid 14 of the support leg storage section 6, and raise the support legs 7.
After maintaining the upright state with the support member 12, the lower end of the shutter 1 that also serves as an edge stand is placed on a rail (not shown) or the like with the support leg 7 side facing downward, and the tip of the telescopic leg body 10 of the support leg 7 is placed on the rail (not shown) or the like. When grounded and the length of the support leg 7 is adjusted using the leg adjustment member 9, the storm door 1 serving as an edge stand is supported horizontally by the pair of support legs 7, 7 and the lower end, and can be used as an edge stand.

When using the storm door 1 that is used as an edge stand as a storm door, the steps may be performed in the opposite order to the above.

In the embodiment described above, the locking members 17, 18
Since the support legs 7 and the support member 12 stored in the support leg storage section 6 are locked, the support legs 7 and the like are locked against the inner surface plate 3 when opening and closing the shutter 1 that is used as a rain door. , it will not hit the lid body 14 and generate noise. Further, since the support leg storage section 6 is provided with the lid body 14, the appearance is hardly spoiled when used as a rain door. Furthermore, since the support legs 7 are maintained in an upright state by the support member 12 configured to be stored in the support leg storage section 6, the support legs 7 will not rotate in the folding direction while being used as an edge stand. , can be used safely.

In addition, although the embodiment has described a configuration in which a pair of support legs 7 are provided at both ends of the upper edge of the storm door panel 4, the position and number of support legs 7 are not limited to those in the embodiment. For example, a pair of support legs 7 may be provided at both ends of one side edge of the shutter panel 4, and such a structure can be used even when the garden is narrow. Moreover, if two pairs are provided at the four corners of the storm door panel 4, it can be used even in a location away from a building.

Regarding the structure of the support leg storage 6, the rain door panel 4
It may be provided so as to open on the inner surface of the
For example, as shown in FIG. 4, when a metal plate with a corrugated cross section is used as one surface plate 33 to increase the bending strength of the shutter panel 34, the thickness of the shutter panel 34 is reduced. Alternatively, even if both face plates are flat, a strong core material and face plate can be selected to provide sufficient bending strength even when the thickness of the storm door panel is made thin. Completely remove the leg storage area 36 from the shutter panel 3.
4, if it cannot be buried in the support leg storage part 36.
The opening end portion may be provided in a half-buried state so as to protrude from the surface plate 33.

As is clear from the above description, since the present invention has the structure as described in the claims, it does not impair the function of conventional storm doors at all, and can be used when not in use as a storm door, for example, when It can also be used as a bench that can be used for playgrounds, etc., and can be used for multiple purposes, demonstrating excellent effects.
