Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a folding door component connecting device and a folding door component connecting method for forming a folding door used as a door / partition of a storage. .

(Disadvantages of the prior art) Recently, in living, walking closet, that is,
It has become more and more common to equip clothes storage rooms that people can enter inside.

By the way, conventional folding doors were not manufactured with the view from the back side in mind, so when a conventional folding door is used in a walking closet, when the folding door is viewed from inside the forking closet, the folding door structure There is a drawback that the exposed connecting hinges between the members are unsightly.

(Object of the Invention) It is an object of the present invention to provide a connecting device for folding door constituent members that is not unsightly when viewed from the back side, as well as a connecting method thereof.

(Example) Below, it demonstrates based on the Example shown in drawing of this invention. In this specification, the table means the upper side of FIG.
The back means the lower side in the figure, the left means the left side in FIG. 3, and the right means the right side in the figure.

Recesses 3 that face each other are formed in the upper and lower portions of the ends of the two folding door constituting members 2 that face each other.
The synthetic resin cylinder 4 is fitted with its axis centered horizontally. These cylindrical bodies 4 have flat portions 5 at the upper and lower portions, and also have a fitting portion 6 into which a main body portion 8a of a plate flap 8 described later is fitted. The right cylinder 4 and the left cylinder 4 are fitted upside down in the recess 3,
In that state, the fitting portion 6 is vertically offset (see FIG. 5). A body portion 8a of a pair of flat plate-like flaps 8 is fitted in the fitting portion 6 in a planar shape. The plate-like flaps 8 are connected to each other by pivotal shafts 9 with their axes centered in the vertical direction at pivotal attachment portions 8b, and the ends of the pivotal attachment portions 8b are formed in the back surface of the folding door component 2. It is exposed on the back side through 10.

From the upper or lower end of the folding door constituent member 2, a hole 12 penetrating them is formed in the main body portion 8a of the folding door constituent member 2, the tubular body 4 and the plate-like flap 8, and a fixing pin 13 is formed in this hole 12. It is fitted.

As shown in FIG. 6, a spring bearing pin 16 is projectingly provided at the upper end of each end of the folding door constituting member 2 which abuts each other, and one wire rod having two curl portions 17a on these spring bearing pins 16 is formed. Each end of a spring 17 consisting of
Applies a force so that the spring bearing pins 16 lean toward each other. That is, the spring 17 is arranged such that the spring bearing pin 16 and the pivot 9 are aligned in a straight line when viewed from a plane.
When 16 moves to the front side, a force in the closing direction is applied to the folding door constituting members 2, and on the other hand, when the spring receiving pin 16 moves to the back side, a force in the opening direction is given to the folding door constituting members 2.

(Assembly Method of Embodiment) Next, an assembly method of the embodiment device will be described.

Recesses 3 facing each other are formed at the ends of the two folding door constituting members 2 facing each other, and an opening 10 continuous with the recess 3 is formed on the back surface of the folding door constituting member 2.

Next, the cylindrical body 4 is fitted in the recess 3 with its axis centered horizontally.

Next, the main body a of the pair of plate-like flaps 8 in a planar shape, which is connected to the cylindrical body 4 by a pivot 9 whose axis is vertically oriented at the pivot 8b, is attached to the pivot 4. 8b is fitted so as to be exposed to the back surface side through the opening 10.

Next, from the upper or lower end of the folding door constituting member 2 to the main body portion 8a of the folding door constituting member 2, the tubular body 4 and the plate-like flap 8,
A hole 12 is formed therethrough.

 Then, the fixing pin 13 is fitted into the hole 12.

(Effects of the Invention) The present invention has the following effects due to the above-described configuration.

The end of the pivot portion of the plate flap is exposed to the back side through the opening formed in the back surface of the folding door component, and unlike the conventional case, the connecting hinge (plate flap) is not visible. So when you look at the folding door from the back side, it is not unsightly.

After adjusting the positions of the main body of the tubular body and the plate flap with respect to the folding door component, penetrate them from the upper or lower end of the folding door component to the main body of the folding door component, the tubular body, and the plate flap. Since the holes are formed and the fixing pins are fitted in the holes, the tubular body and the main body of the plate-like flap can be accurately attached to the folding door component without displacement.
