BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to an apparatus for attaching exterior wall panels to a structural frame.

0002

[Prior Art] When attaching an exterior wall panel to a structural frame consisting of columns and beams, first, a mounting bracket is fixed to the frame with bolts, etc., and the panel is similarly fixed to the mounting bracket with bolts. There is. In this case, it is necessary to fix the exterior wall panel while supporting its own weight, but in the past, the metal fittings that support the weight and the metal fittings that fix it to the frame were constructed separately, and these metal fittings were attached to the frame. It was fixed to the body, supported by a metal fitting that supports its own weight, and fixed with another metal fitting.

0003

[Problem to be Solved by the Invention] Conventionally, therefore, two types of metal fittings were required: one to receive the weight and the other to be fixed to the frame, which increased the types and number of parts, and made installation difficult. However, it has the disadvantage that it is complicated and requires time and effort. Moreover, the mounting of such a large number of metal fittings increases the space occupied by the mounting portions in the frame, creating significant restrictions on the design of the surrounding areas. The present invention solves these drawbacks by providing one metal fitting with both the function of receiving the weight of the outer wall panel and the function of fixing it to the frame.

0004

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention includes a mounting member to be attached to a structural frame, a support bolt projecting upward from the mounting member, and a screw threaded into the support bolt so as to be vertically adjustable. The supporting member attached to the panel and the fixing member attached to the lower end of the panel constitute a supporting metal fitting, and the supporting bolt is inserted into the bolt hole of the fixing member and placed on the supporting member, and also screwed into the supporting bolt. The fixing member is fixed with a matched nut to support the lower end of the panel, and the upper end of another panel below the panel is fixed with a bolt to the mounting member of the metal fitting that fixes the lower end of the panel. .

[0005] Similarly, a second invention of this application has a pair of support bolts protruding from a support fitting, and is attached to one of the support bolts to the lower end of one of a pair of exterior wall panels adjacent to each other in the left and right direction. A fixing member is attached to the other support bolt at the lower end of the other exterior wall panel, and the fixing member is attached to a pair of exterior wall panels that are adjacent to each other in the left and right direction below each panel supported by the support bolt. The upper ends are bolted together.

[0006]

[Operation] In the structure of this application, the weight of the outer wall panel is supported by placing the fixing member fixed to the lower end of the outer wall panel on the support member of the support bolt. By tightening this fixing member with a nut and fixing it to the bolt, it is fixed to the frame via the support metal fittings. Furthermore, by moving the support member up and down with respect to the bolts, it is possible to erect and level the outer wall panel.

Next, to explain the installation method using the support fitting 21, first, remove the tightening nut 12 at the upper end of the support bolt 8, and attach the vertical part 16 of the fixing member 13 to the lower end of the outer wall panel 19 as described above. and install it (
state in Figure 1). In this state, the upper end of the support bolt 8 is inserted into the bolt hole 15 in the horizontal part 14 of the fixing member 13 attached to the lower end of the outer wall panel 19 suspended by a crane or the like. 14 is placed on the upper surface of the support member 11. Then, in this state, the height and level of the outer wall panel 19 are adjusted while rotating the nut 10 of the support member 11, and the tightening nut 12 is tightened from above to fix it. Further, on the outer surface of the vertical part 2 of the mounting member 1, the upper end corner part of the other outer wall panel 19 below the outer wall panel 19 to which the lower end is fixed has a bolt 22 inserted from the inside into the bolt hole 20 of the vertical part 2. is screwed and fixed to the outer wall panel 19. Furthermore, in this figure, the upper end of the outer wall panel 19 whose lower end is fixed is also attached to another metal fitting 2 of the same structure installed on the upper beam 5.

There is. That is, according to this embodiment, two adjacent outer wall panels 19 are fixed with one support metal fitting 21, and therefore the number of support metal fittings 21 can be reduced to about half.

[0011]

As described above, according to the present invention, the bolt hole of the fixing member attached to the outer wall panel is inserted through the support bolt of the attachment member attached to the beam, and the bolt is mounted on the support member of the support bolt. By fixing the panel with the panels, the panels can have the functions of both supporting the panel's own weight and fixing it to the structural frame, reducing work time. Further, by adjusting the height of this support member, the height of the outer wall panel can be adjusted, and a highly accurate mounting structure can be obtained. Therefore, since the number of parts is reduced, the space for the mounting part is reduced, and the design of the mounting positions of other parts around the frame becomes easier. Furthermore, in the second invention of this application, while having such a function, two panels adjacent in the left and right direction can be fixed with one metal fitting,
This has the effect of reducing the number of metal fittings accordingly.
