Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention is a lattice assembly in which hollow lattices that intersect with each other are fitted into each other with cutouts formed at the respective intersections, and are connected via plate-like connectors. It is related to the device.

(Prior art and its problems) When constructing a lattice with intersecting hollow lattices, notches are formed at the intersections of each lattice, the notches are fitted into each other, and a connector is interposed between the intersections. The connection is made by locking the grid to the connector. Since the connector is placed between the two grids at the intersection, it looks good in appearance, but since the connector is shaped like a block, there is no space for the connector to be attached to the inner wall of the grid. The locking part must be specially formed,
It took more time to form, required more materials, and was more troublesome to assemble.

(Technical problem of the invention) The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks, and in particular, by using plate-like connectors, the lattice assembly can easily cross-connect hollow lattices that do not have special locking parts. Its technical problem is to provide a device.

(Means for Solving the Problems) As a means for solving the above problems, a lattice assembly device according to the present invention is provided by forming hollow lattices that intersect with each other by fitting cutouts formed at the respective intersections into each other. A lattice assembly device in which the notched ends of the notched portions are connected to the outer surface of the remaining wall below the base side of the notched opposing wall of the other lattice, and between the notched portions of each of the lattices is a A four-sided plate-shaped connector corresponding to the overlapping area of the intersection is interposed,
On each pair of opposing sides of the plate-like connector, elastic locking pieces are formed diagonally outward so that the opposing sides are in the same direction and the adjacent sides are in opposite directions, and each of the elastic locking pieces is It is characterized in that it protrudes along the outer surface of the remaining wall below the base side of the notched opposing wall of one of the lattices that intersects with the lattice, and is locked inside the hollow part of the notched end of the other lattice.

(Operation and effect of the invention) According to the above structure, the locking pieces formed on each piece of the plate-like connector interposed between the two grids at the intersection of the two grids are connected to the notch end of the corresponding grid. Since it is locked inside the hollow part of the grid, the intersecting grids only need to be hollow, and there is no need to provide any special locking part. In addition, since the plate-like connector can be easily processed by cutting and bending a metal plate, the lattice assembly device is simple. Furthermore, since the two grids are connected by engaging the grids and the plate-like connectors that intersect with each other, the connection work is easy.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, symbol A indicates a glass shoji with a grid.
This glass shoji with a lattice A has a lattice body 1 having a rectangular frame frame 1c attached to a shoji frame 2, and the lattice body 1 has a vertical lattice 1a and a horizontal lattice 1b. connected in a cross-like manner.

The vertical lattice 1a and the horizontal lattice 1b are both hollow and square in cross section, and cutouts 3 are formed at their intersections. Both of the gratings 1a and 1b are constructed by fitting the notches 3 into each other, interposing a plate-like connector 4 between the notches 3, and connecting the connector 4 to both the grates 1a and 1b. It is laid out in a lattice pattern.

The cutout portion 3 is formed by cutting out approximately half of the thickness of each of the lattices 1a and 1b in the thickness direction, and a cutout end 7 is formed at both ends of the bottom portion 6 of the cutout opposing side wall 5. On the other hand, a hollow part 8 is exposed at the notch end 7.

The plate-like connector 4 is formed into a four-sided shape corresponding to the overlapping area of the intersection of the grids 1a and 1b, and locking sides 9a and 9b are formed on each side. That is,
As shown in FIG. 2, elastic locking pieces 9a are formed on both sides of the pair of opposing sides 4a of the plate-like connector 4, extending diagonally outward from the base surface of the plate-like connector 4. Similarly, on both sides of the other pair of opposing sides 4b, diagonally outward on the side opposite to the elastic locking piece 9a,
An elastic locking piece 9b is formed. These elastic locking pieces 9a and 9b are formed to protrude from the bottom 6 of the notch 3 of the vertical lattice 1a toward the outer side.

Furthermore, a leg piece 9c is formed at the center of the other pair of opposing sides 4b of the plate-shaped connector 4 at right angles to the base surface of the connector 4. The distance between the leg pieces 9c is approximately equal to the distance between the notched inner walls of the opposing side wall 5. Note that the corner portion 10 of the plate-like connector 4 is formed to engage with the end surface of the notch end 7 of the notch portion 3.

In the above configuration, when cross-connecting the vertical lattice 1a and the horizontal lattice 1b, the plate-like connector 4 is pressed against the notch 3 of one of the lattices (vertical lattice 1a in the illustrated example) and the opposing side 4a of the one side is pressed. It is installed by locking the locking piece 9a inside the hollow part of the cutout end 7. At this time, the corner portion 1 of the plate-shaped connecting fitting 4
0 engages with the end surface of the notch end 7 of the notch 3, and the leg piece 9c is arranged along the inner wall of the hollow part 8, so that there is no play in the hollow part 8 of the attached plate-like connector 4. It is fixed without sticking. Next, horizontal grid 1b
are made to intersect with the vertical lattice 1a, and the notches 3 thereof are overlapped and pressed against the notches 3 of the vertical lattice 1a. Since a locking piece 9b projects from the bottom side of the notch 3 of the vertical lattice 1a to the outer surface side, the locking piece 9b locks inside the hollow portion 8 of the horizontal lattice 1b. Note that when the locking piece 9b locks inside the hollow part 8, the elastic locking piece 9a locks inside the hollow part of the cutout end 7 of the vertical grid 1a, and the elastic locking piece 9a locks inside the hollow part 7 of the horizontal grid 1b. It protrudes to the side.

As described above, the connection between the vertical lattice 1a and the horizontal lattice 1b is achieved by the elastic locking pieces 9a, 9b of the plate-shaped connector 4 interposed between both the lattices 1a, 1b at the intersection.
This is done by locking the inside of the hollow part 8 of the notch end 7 of the notch 3 of each lattice 1a, 1b. There is no need to provide a locking part. In addition, since the plate-like connector 4 can be easily processed by cutting and bending a metal plate, the lattice structure is simple. Moreover, since the vertical grid 1a and the horizontal grid 1b and the plate-like connectors 4 can be locked together by pressing, the cross-connecting work of both the grids 1a and 1b is very easy.

Note that the lattices that intersect with each other may be hollow, and their cross sections are not limited to rectangular shapes. Moreover, they may intersect each other obliquely.
