Japanese Patent No. 2547962

With the recent changes in architectural styles, the size of sliding doors has become a trend of the times in order to cope with the increase in size of building openings and the improvement of functions such as sound insulation, heat insulation, daylighting, and design. Yes. As a result, the burden on the functional surface of the doorwheel attached to the lower end of the sliding door also increases, which causes failure and breakage. In addition, since the sliding door is opened and closed by sliding or rolling, the heavier the weight, the more difficult it is to open the friction. For this reason, opening and closing operations may be difficult for children and elderly people with weak power, and a sliding door that can be opened and closed with a smaller force is desired.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a sliding door unit capable of reducing the failure / breakage of the sliding door door and opening and closing the sliding door with a smaller force.

Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the sliding door unit of the present invention includes a sliding door and a structure on which the sliding door roller rolls, and both of them are opposed to each other by incorporating a magnetic member (magnet member, soft magnetic member, etc.). By doing so, the sliding door is opened and closed as a state where buoyancy is applied. In this case, if it is a sliding door lower end, both magnetic members will be arrange | positioned so that the opposing magnetic member may repel. On the contrary, if it is a sliding door upper end, both magnetic members will be arrange | positioned so that the opposing magnetic member may attract | suck. Moreover, you may arrange | position a magnetic member facing both the lower end and upper end of a sliding door in the above forms. Furthermore, the sliding door may be separated and floated with respect to the structure by the magnetic force of the opposing magnetic members.

Specifically, the sliding door unit of the present invention has a sliding door that can move on a predetermined track such that the upper end side and the lower end side are guided, and a lower guide body that guides the lower end side of the sliding door. A lower guide portion, and at least a lower end portion of the sliding door is provided with a plurality of lower end side door wheels and a plurality of permanent magnet members, while the lower guide portion has the above-mentioned permanent magnet member with respect to the permanent magnet member. A permanent magnet member that is opposed to the height direction of the sliding door and that is different from the permanent magnet member is provided, and the facing permanent magnet member is always in the height direction when the sliding door moves on the track. The trajectories are opposed to each other with a projection overlap, repel each other by the magnetic poles of both facing surfaces, and each of the facing surfaces has at least the same kind of magnetic poles in the moving direction of the sliding door, The load applied to the lower guide portion from the sliding door via the lower door side wheel is reduced by the repulsive force of the permanent magnet members on both the lower end side of the sliding door and the lower guide portion. It is characterized by.

According to the configuration of the present invention, the weight of the sliding door applied to the lower guide portion such as the sill via the lower end side door wheel is reduced by the repulsive force of the permanent magnet. Thereby, the friction at the time of opening and closing movement is reduced, and the sliding door can be opened and closed with a small force. Moreover, since the weight of the sliding door added to the lower end side door is also reduced, the load on the lower end side door is reduced, and the life of the lower end side door can be expected to be extended. In particular, if the sliding door is lifted by the repulsive force of the permanent magnet, the force for opening and closing the sliding door is very small, and there is almost no burden on the lower end side door.

Further, in the present invention, an upper guide part having an upper guide body for guiding the upper end side of the sliding door can be configured so that the sliding door can move on the track. And while a magnetic member is provided in the upper end part of a sliding door, the said upper guide part is provided with a magnetic member different from this magnetic member facing the magnetic member in the height direction of the sliding door. Can do. Further, the opposing magnetic members always face each other with a projection overlap in the height direction when the sliding door moves on the track, and are attracted to each other by the magnetic poles of both opposing surfaces. In addition, each of the facing surfaces can be configured to have the same type of magnetic poles at least in the moving direction of the sliding door.

According to the above configuration, not only the force that lifts the entire sliding door by the repulsive force between the permanent magnet members acts on the lower end side of the sliding door, but also the entire sliding door similarly lifts by the attractive force between the magnetic members on the upper end side of the sliding door. Since the auxiliary force to act acts, the load of the sliding door can be reduced.

On the sliding door upper end side, one of the upper guide portion magnetic member and the sliding door upper end magnetic member can be a permanent magnet member, and the other can be a permanent magnet member or a soft magnetic member made of a soft magnetic material. Can do. If permanent magnet members are used for both, it becomes possible to obtain a large attractive force, and if one is a permanent magnet member and the other is a soft magnetic member, it can be constructed at a lower cost by using a soft magnetic member. It becomes.

Also, a plurality of upper end side doors can be provided at the upper end of the sliding door. Thereby, a sliding door can be opened and closed more stably by arranging a door cart not only on the lower end side but also on the upper end side.

In the present invention, the magnetic members at the upper end of the sliding door can be distributed and arranged so as to be symmetrical in the moving direction (front-rear direction) of the sliding door. By arranging symmetrically in the moving direction of the sliding door, the entire sliding door can receive the suction force received from the magnetic member of the upper guide portion evenly, so that the sliding door can be stably opened and closed.

In the present invention, when the sliding door upper end has a door, the magnetic member at the upper end of the sliding door is more than the uppermost door located at the foremost position among the upper doors in the moving direction (front-rear direction) of the sliding door. Can also be provided at a position in the rear and in front of the uppermost side door wheel located at the rearmost position. By generating the suction force at the upper end of the sliding door at a position close to the center in the front-rear direction of the sliding door, it is possible to suppress the rattling caused by the front-rear inclination that is likely to occur when the sliding door is opened and closed.

In the present invention, the magnetic member of the upper guide portion can be provided in a rail shape continuous in the length direction of the upper guide body. Thereby, the magnetic member provided at the upper end of the sliding door can receive the attractive force stably without interruption at any position of the upper guide body.

In the present invention, when the sliding door upper end has a door, the magnetic members of the upper guide are respectively provided at both ends in the width direction of the upper guide, and the upper door is between the magnetic members. It can be configured to be guided in the moving direction of the sliding door in such a manner that a part is sandwiched. According to this configuration, the upper end side door wheel is guided by the magnetic member, and the sliding door can be opened and closed stably. The upper end side door wheel may roll while being guided in the length direction of the lower guide body at the intermediate position in the arrangement direction of the magnetic members.

In this invention, when it is the structure which has a door also in a sliding door upper end part, the magnetic member of an upper side guide part is provided on an upper side guide body, and an upper end side door wheel opposes this magnetic member in the height direction of the said sliding door. It can be configured as follows. According to this configuration, since the magnetic member of the upper guide portion only needs to be installed on the upper guide body, the installation becomes easy. If the upper guide body is a guide groove, it is only necessary to fit the magnetic member member into the groove. Further, the upper end side door wheel may roll on the magnetic member while being guided in the length direction by the upper guide body.

In the present invention, when the sliding door upper end portion is also configured to have a door, the upper guide body can be configured with a step having different bottom end heights in the width direction of the upper guide body, and the boundary of the step is A magnetic member may be provided on the lower end surface on the first side with respect to the stepped elevation surface to be formed, and the upper end side door wheel may be opposed to the second lower end surface in the height direction of the sliding door. According to this structure, the arrangement position of the magnetic member and the door roller can be separated by the step. In addition, you may make it an upper end side door wheel roll on the length direction of this upper side guide body on the lower end surface of said 2nd side.

In the present invention, the upper guide body can be formed as an upper guide groove in the case where the sliding door upper end portion also has a door. In this case, the upper end side door cart can be configured such that a part or the whole of the upper end side door is fitted in the upper guide groove and guided in the moving direction of the sliding door. According to this structure, the shift | offset | difference of the thickness direction of a sliding door can be suppressed in the form by which an upper end side doorwheel is guided.

In the present invention, the upper-end side door attached to the upper end of the sliding door has a cylindrical door body, and a disk-like protrusion that protrudes outward from the center of the outer peripheral surface in the rotation axis direction of the door body. When the door is opened and closed, the door roller body rolls on the upper guide portion, while the disk-like protruding portion is arranged in a state of protruding into the upper guide groove forming the upper guide body provided in the upper guide portion. , And can be configured to move while being guided by the upper guide groove. Since the periphery of the shaft that rotatably supports the upper end side door is thickened, the deflection of the shaft is suppressed, and the rotation of the upper end side door can be kept smooth. Further, since the sliding door is moved in such a manner that the disk-shaped protrusion is guided, the sliding door can be reliably moved along a predetermined track.

In the present invention, the magnetic member at the upper end of the sliding door can be a permanent magnet member, and the magnetic member at the upper guide can be a soft magnetic member. By making one of the pair of magnetic members that generate an attractive force a soft magnetic member made of a soft magnetic material such as iron, it can be configured at low cost.

In the present invention, the sliding door can hold at least a state of floating with respect to the lower guide portion. As a result, the sliding door can be opened and closed without almost feeling the load of the sliding door, and an overload is not applied to the lower end side door wheel on the lower side of the sliding door to which the load is most applied. On the other hand, when an upper end side door is provided on the upper side of the sliding door, it can always come into contact with the upper guide portion and roll as the sliding door moves. In this case, the door load on the upper side of the sliding door is not loaded as much as the door wheel on the lower side of the sliding door, and the opening / closing operation of the sliding door is stabilized by rolling the door wheel on the upper guide portion.

In the present invention, a plurality of permanent magnet members at the lower end of the sliding door can be arranged in a distributed manner so as to be symmetrical in the moving direction (front-rear direction) of the sliding door. Since the permanent magnet member at the lower end of the sliding door is arranged symmetrically in the moving direction of the sliding door, the entire sliding door can receive the repulsive force received from the permanent magnet member of the lower guide portion evenly. Open and close.

In the present invention, the permanent magnet member at the lower end portion of the sliding door is positioned in front of the front door located at the foremost position of the lower end side door in the moving direction (front-rear direction) of the sliding door, and from the rear door located at the back. It can be provided at least in both the rear position. Thereby, rattling due to the inclination in the front-rear direction that is likely to occur when the sliding door is opened and closed can be suppressed by the repulsive force of the permanent magnets at the ends in the front-rear direction.

In the present invention, the permanent magnet member of the lower guide portion can be provided in a rail shape continuous in the length direction of the lower guide body. Thereby, the permanent magnet member provided at the lower end of the sliding door can stably obtain a repulsive force without interruption at any position of the lower guide body.

In the present invention, the permanent magnet member of the lower guide portion is provided at each of both ends in the width direction of the lower guide body, and the lower end side wheel is partially moved between the magnetic members. Can be configured to be guided in the direction. According to this structure, since the lower end side door wheel rolls in the form guided by the permanent magnet member, the sliding door can be opened and closed stably.

In the present invention, the permanent magnet member of the lower guide portion is provided on the lower guide body, and the lower end side door wheel is configured to face the permanent magnet member in the height direction of the sliding door. Since it is sufficient if it is simply provided on the lower guide body, installation is easy. If the lower guide body is a guide groove, it is only necessary to fit the permanent magnet member into the groove. A lower end side door wheel may roll on the permanent magnet member in the length direction of the lower guide body.

In the present invention, the lower guide portion can be configured to have a step whose height of the upper end surface differs in the width direction of the lower guide body, and the upper side of the first guide with respect to the step elevation surface forming the boundary of the step. A permanent magnet member is provided on the end surface, and the lower end side wheel can be configured to face the upper end surface on the second side in the height direction of the sliding door. According to this structure, the arrangement position of the permanent magnet member and the lower end side door wheel can be separated by the step, and the step elevation can function as a guide surface. You may make it a lower end side wheel roll on the length direction of this lower side guide body on the upper end surface of a 2nd side.

In the present invention, the lower guide body can be formed as a lower guide groove. In this case, a part or the whole of the lower end side door cart can be configured to be fitted in the lower guide groove and guided in the moving direction of the sliding door. According to this structure, the shift | offset | difference of the thickness direction of a sliding door can be suppressed in the form by which a lower end side doorwheel is guided.

In the present invention, the lower end side door attached to the lower end of the sliding door includes a cylindrical lower end side door main body and a disk-like protruding portion protruding outward from the center of the outer peripheral surface in the rotation axis direction of the lower end side door main body. When the sliding door opens and closes, the lower end side door body rolls on the lower guide part, while the disk-like protruding part forms the lower guide body provided on the lower guide part. It can be arranged so as to project in the guide groove and move while being guided by the lower guide groove. Since the periphery of the shaft that supports the rotation of the lower end side door becomes thick, the deflection of the shaft is suppressed, and the rotation of the lower end side door can be kept smooth. Further, since the sliding door is moved in such a manner that the disk-shaped protrusion is guided, the sliding door can be reliably moved along a predetermined track. It is also possible to reduce the width of the guide groove.

Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the sliding door unit of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The sliding door unit 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a sliding door 2 that can move on a predetermined track in such a manner that the upper end 2A and the lower end 2B are guided, and the sliding door 2 can move on the track. An upper guide portion (for example, a duck) 5 having an upper guide body 50 for guiding the upper end portion 2A of the sliding door 2 and a lower guide portion (for example, a sill) 3 having a lower guide body 30 for guiding the lower end portion 2B. And is configured. The upper guide portion 5 and the lower guide portion 3 are arranged to face each other in the height direction of the sliding door 2 (here, it coincides with the direction of gravity). Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the guide bodies 50 and 30 are both guide grooves having a rectangular cross section, and the opening sides of both guide grooves 50 and 30 face each other.

The lower end portion 2B of the sliding door 2 has a corner with a unit 7 having a door wheel (wheel) 70 that is opposed to the lower guide portion 3 in the height direction of the sliding door 2 and is rotatable in the moving direction of the sliding door 2. A round or magnetic member 8 is provided. On the other hand, the lower guide 3 is opposed to the magnetic member 8 in the height direction of the sliding door 2 and repels the magnetic member 8 in the height direction. A magnetic member 4 is provided. As a result, the load applied to the lower guide portion 3 by the sliding door 2 at an arbitrary position on the track is the repulsive force of the magnetic members 8 and 4 provided on both the lower end side of the sliding door 2 and the lower guide portion 3. Is alleviated by For this reason, the sliding door 2 can be opened and closed with a smaller force, and the load on the door wheel 70 at the lower end of the sliding door 2 is also reduced. Here, one of the magnetic members 8 (80) and 4 (40) here is a permanent magnet member, and the other is also a permanent magnet member, and is opposed to each other in the gravitational direction so that they repel each other.

Both the magnetic members 8 and 4 on the sliding door 2 side and the lower guide portion 3 side have the magnetization directions of the magnetic doors 8 and 4 in the height direction of the sliding door 2, and the opposing surfaces of the two magnetic members 8 and 4 (landing) Magnetic surfaces 8a, 4a all have the same kind of magnetic poles at least in the moving direction of the sliding door 2. That is, when the magnetic poles of the opposing surfaces 8a and 4a of the magnetic members 8 and 4 are viewed along the moving direction of the sliding door 2, the magnetic poles are not switched on the way. Here, the entire opposing surfaces (magnetized surfaces) 8a, 4a of both magnetic members 8 (80), 4 (40) all have the same type of magnetic pole (N pole). When the opposing magnetic poles are switched between the N pole and the S pole as the sliding door 2 moves, the sliding door may not move smoothly at the switching point, and may be rattled, but the opposing surfaces 8a, 4a Such rattling can be eliminated by unifying the magnetic poles into at least one of the N pole and the S pole in the moving direction of the sliding door 2.

As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of magnetic members 8 provided at the lower end 2 </ b> B of the sliding door 2 are dispersedly arranged so as to be symmetric in the front-rear direction (moving direction) of the sliding door 2. Further, the magnetic member 8 includes a front position of the front door unit 7 (door wheel 70) and a rearmost door wheel unit 7 of the front door unit 7 (door wheel 70) in the front-rear direction of the sliding door 2. It is provided so as to exist both at a position behind the (door wheel 70) ( reference numerals 8A and 8B). Thereby, rattling due to the inclination in the front-rear direction that is likely to occur when the sliding door 2 is opened and closed can be suppressed by the repulsive force of the magnetic members 8A and 8B at the end portions in the front-rear direction. The magnetic member 8 does not necessarily have to be disposed at a position in front of the front door unit 7 located in the front of the door unit 7 and a position in the rear of the back door unit 7. In the lower end portion 2B, the tilt of the sliding door 2 in the front-rear direction is suppressed as it is arranged more forward and rearward. In addition, the magnetic member 8 is also arrange | positioned here also in the center position in the front-back direction of the lower end part 2B of the sliding door 2. As shown in FIG. Further, the magnetic member 8 here is disposed in proximity to both the front and rear of each door unit 7.

Also, the magnetic members 8 and 4 provided on the sliding door 2 side and the lower guide portion 3 side always have a projection overlap in the height direction of the sliding door 2 when the sliding door 2 moves on the track. That is, the magnetic member 8 always faces the magnetic member 4 in the height direction of the sliding door 2 regardless of the position of the sliding door 2 on the track. Thereby, since the sliding door 2 always receives a repulsive force on a track | orbit, it becomes possible to move smoothly.

In addition, the upper end 2A of the sliding door 2 has a rectangular shape and a door pulley unit 7 having a door 70 that is opposed to the upper guide portion 5 in the height direction of the sliding door 2 and is rotatable in the moving direction of the sliding door 2. Alternatively, a round magnetic member 9 is provided. On the other hand, the upper guide portion 5 is opposed to the magnetic member 9 in the height direction of the sliding door 2 and is attracted in the height direction with respect to the magnetic member 9. A magnetic member 6 is provided. Thereby, a load applied to the lower guide portion 3 by the sliding door 2 at an arbitrary position on the track is generated between the magnetic members 9 and 6 provided on both the upper end side of the sliding door 2 and the upper guide portion 5. Reduced by suction. The magnetic members 9 (90) and 6 (60) here can be both ferromagnetic members made of a ferromagnetic material. For example, one is a permanent magnet member and the other is a permanent magnet member or soft magnetic member. As a soft magnetic member made of material, they are opposed to each other in the direction of gravity in such a manner that they are attracted to each other.

The magnetic members 9 and 6 on both the sliding door 2 side and the upper guide portion 5 side have the magnetization direction of each other in the height direction of the sliding door 2, and the opposing surfaces 9 a of both the magnetic members 9 and 6, All of the magnetic poles 6a have the same kind of magnetic poles at least in the moving direction of the sliding door 2, and different magnetic poles are opposed to each other between the opposing surfaces. That is, when the magnetic poles of the opposing surfaces 9a and 6a of the magnetic members 9 and 6 are viewed along the moving direction of the sliding door 2, the magnetic poles are not switched on the way. Here, all the surfaces of the facing surface 9a are the same kind of magnetic poles (here, S poles), and all the surfaces of the facing surface 6a have the same kind of magnetic poles (here, N poles). Thereby, when moving a sliding door, since it does not pass the switching point of a magnetic pole, smooth opening and closing is attained.

The magnetic members 9 and 6 on the upper end side of the sliding door 2 can be omitted, and the upper end portion 2A of the sliding door 2 is moved by the guide body 50 of the upper guide portion 5 so that at least the sliding door 2 can move along the track. Any configuration that is guided may be used.

As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of magnetic members 9 provided on the upper end 2 </ b> A of the sliding door 2 are dispersedly arranged so as to be symmetrical in the front-rear direction of the sliding door 2. The magnetic member 9 (90) here is in the same arrangement position as the magnetic member 8 (80) of the lower end 2B in the front-rear direction of the sliding door 2.

Further, the magnetic members 9 and 6 provided on the sliding door 2 side and the upper guide portion 5 side always have a projection overlap in the height direction of the sliding door 2 when the sliding door 2 moves on the track. That is, the magnetic member 9 always faces the magnetic member 6 in the height direction of the sliding door 2 regardless of the position of the sliding door 2 on the track. Thereby, since the sliding door 2 always receives attraction | suction force on a track | orbit, it becomes possible to move smoothly.

The magnetic members 6 and 4 provided in the upper and lower guide portions 5 and 3 are continuous in the length direction of the upper and lower guide bodies 50 and 30 as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B and FIGS. 6A and 6B, for example. It is arranged in a rail shape. Furthermore, these magnetic members 6 and 4 are the same from the first end edge positions 5A and 3A in the length direction of the upper and lower guide bodies 50 and 30 to the second end edge positions 5B and 3B on the opposite side. Members having magnetic force (for example, magnetic members of material / composition) are continuously arranged. Accordingly, the magnetic force generated between the opposing magnetic members 9, 6 and 8, 4 is constant between the first end edge positions 5A, 3A and the second end edge positions 5B, 3B. 2 smooth movement becomes possible.

The magnetic members 6 and 4 arranged in a rail shape may be one magnetic member as shown in FIGS. 5A and 6A, or a plurality of magnetic members as shown in FIGS. 5B and 5B. The guide bodies 50 and 30 may be continuously arranged in the length direction. The magnetic members 6, 4 and the upper and lower guide portions 5, 3 are fixed by applying an adhesive to the contact surfaces between the guide portions 5, 3 and the magnetic members 6, 4. Alternatively, there is a method of preparing a magnetic member provided with a hole through which a fastening member (screw member or the like) is inserted, and fixing it with the fastening member, and any of them may be used.

As shown in FIG. 2, the door unit 7 provided at the upper end 2 </ b> A and the lower end 2 </ b> B of the sliding door 2 includes a door wheel (wheel) 70, a rotating shaft portion 74 that rotatably supports the door wheel 70, and a rotating shaft. The portion 74 has a frame portion 71 to which the portion 74 is integrally fixed. Here, the rotation shaft portion 74 has an axis line in a direction orthogonal to the height direction of the sliding door 2 and the moving direction (track direction), and the door wheel 70 is in contact with the upper and lower guide portions 5 and 3. Roll on the guide parts 5 and 3. The frame portion 71 is formed with a hole 73 through which a fastening member (screw member or the like) 72 is inserted, and is fixed to the sliding door 2 by the fastening member (screw member or the like) 72. In the first embodiment, a door opening 27 </ b> B that opens downward is formed in the lower end 2 </ b> B of the sliding door 2, and a door opening 27 </ b> A that opens upward is formed in the upper end 2 </ b> A of the sliding door 2. The door roller unit 7 is fixed by a fastening member 72 so as to be fitted into the door roller mounting holes 27A and 27B. Thereby, at least half or more of the door wheel 70 of the door wheel unit 7 is accommodated in the door opening holes 27A and 27B, and the exposure of the door wheel 70 is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 2, a magnetic member mounting hole 28 that opens downward is formed in the lower end 2 </ b> B of the sliding door 2, and the magnetic member mounting hole that opens upward is formed in the upper end 2 </ b> A of the sliding door 2. A hole 29 is formed. The magnetic members 9 and 8 are fixed so as to be fitted into the magnetic member mounting holes 29 and 28. Thereby, the exposure of the magnetic member 9.8 to the outside is small, and the design is not inferior to a general sliding door. The fixing method of these magnetic members 9 and 8 and the sliding door 2 is provided with a method of applying and fixing an adhesive to the contact surface with the sliding door 2 and a hole through which a fastening member (screw member or the like) is inserted.
