DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a member for reinforcing an end face of an opening formed in a wall panel and a structure reinforced by using the member.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Recently, bathrooms are sometimes constructed with unit baths. This unit bath is usually installed in the building frame, and the bathroom is usually a closed room. In such a case, an opening is formed in the wall panel of the unit bath, and the opening is made to face the window of the building frame, thereby giving a sense of openness to the user of the unit bus, enabling daylighting and relaxing. May be available for use.

When an opening is formed in a wall panel as described above, it is necessary to reinforce the end face of the opening. Conventionally, a method in which a frame formed of lightweight steel or the like is reinforced by bonding it to the back surface side of the opening with an adhesive, and a runner member having a U-shaped cross section is fitted to the end surface of the opening to reinforce the frame. The method and, as shown in FIGS.
There is a method of reinforcing with a reinforcing member 1 having a character shape. The reinforcing method shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is a technique disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-66389.

In the prior art shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a reinforcing member 1 having an F-shaped cross section is fitted to an opening end face 3a of an opening 3 provided in a wall panel 2, and then the opening 3 is further mounted. The wall-embedded panel 4 is fitted and mounted on the portion 3, and the panel 4 and the upright wall 1 a or the web 1 b of the reinforcing member 1 are integrally connected by screws 5, and the wall-embedded panel 4 is inserted into the opening 3. At the same time as the installation, the end surface 3a of the opening 3 is reinforced by the reinforcing member 1.

[0005]

However, such a conventional method of reinforcing the end face of the wall opening has the following problems. That is, first, in a method of reinforcing a frame formed of a light-weight steel or the like by attaching it to the back surface side of the opening with an adhesive, the application of the adhesive is troublesome, requires time and effort, and cuts the frame. The end face was bare and dangerous.

In the reinforcing method of fitting a U-shaped runner member to the opening end face of the wall panel, it is necessary to prepare a U-shaped recess having a different width dimension for each thickness of the wall panel. there were. In addition, there is a problem that the adjacent reinforcing members 1 cannot be connected so that the connecting members cannot be seen. For this reason, there is a fatal defect that the wall panel itself is cracked from the corner of the opening end face, and the intended purpose of reinforcing the opening end face cannot be achieved.

Further, in the case of the prior art shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, it is impossible to directly visually check whether or not the screws 5 are securely applied.
It was also impossible to connect the two, and there was a case where the wall panel 2 was cracked from the corner of the end face of the opening, or the desired reinforcing strength of the end face could not be obtained.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The configuration of the present invention will be described below with reference to the embodiments of the invention shown in the drawings. The same reference numerals as those in the conventional case denote the same members. 1 and 2 relate to one embodiment of the present invention,
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a reinforcing structure of the opening 3, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a connecting structure of a corner portion of the reinforcing member 6.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the reinforcing member 6 has an S-shaped cross section, and has a concave strip 7 which can be fitted into the end face 3 a of the opening 3 formed in the wall panel 2. A lateral wall portion 6a extending from the front end of the recessed portion 7 on the rear surface side of the wall panel toward the space on the rear side of the opening 3 (to the right in FIG. 1), and an upright end extending from the distal end of the lateral wall portion 6a. It has a wall portion 6 b and a concave ridge portion 8 formed on the back side of the wall panel 2 in a direction opposite to the concave ridge portion 7. The width of the concave ridges 7 and the width of the concave ridges 8 are different from each other, so that the concave ridges 7 can be inverted and applied to two types of wall panels 2 having different thicknesses. The concave portion 7 and the concave portion 8 can be distinguished by the convex portion 6c formed on the outer surface side of the concave portion 7. The entire reinforcing member 6 is integrally formed of a self-tappable material such as an aluminum alloy.

After the reinforcing members 6 are fitted to the respective end surfaces 3a of the four peripheral surfaces of the opening 3, as shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3, concave streaks are formed at the corners of the adjacent reinforcing members 6, 6. The connecting block 9 or the L-shaped fitting 10 is simply fitted into the parts 8 and 8 or attached using screws, and all the reinforcing members 6 on the four peripheral surfaces are connected to each other. Then, a connecting piece 13 is provided between the window sill 12 of the building frame 11 and the concave ridge portion 8 of the reinforcing member 6, and this is connected with the screw 5.

The window sill 12 formed on the building frame 11 is
A window sash 14 is attached to the outside of the device by screws 5. The window sash 14 includes the opening 3 of the wall panel 2.
One end of a box-shaped frame 15 mounted from the inside of the bathroom is connected with screws 5. Box-shaped frame 1
5, a frame 17 for concealing the reinforcing member 6 is formed on the inside of the bathroom, and the frame 17 is integrally connected to the reinforcing member 6 and the wall panel 2 by screws 5.
A decorative cover 18 is fitted on the frame 17. The attachment of the decorative cover 18 may be performed by using the engaging concave and convex portions 19 formed between the frame 17 and the frame.

With such a reinforcing structure of the opening end face 3a, the adjacent reinforcing members 6 are connected to each other by the block 9 or the L-shaped metal fitting 10, and the wall panel 2 is formed at the corner of the opening end face. No cracks are generated from the cracks. Also, by using the S-shaped reinforcing member 6,
The connecting piece 13 that connects the reinforcing member 6 and the window sill 12 can be located outside the opening 3 in the opening radial direction, the connecting piece 13 does not protrude into the opening 3, and the frame 17 is The opening can be effectively used without obstructing the insertion into the opening 3. Furthermore, when connecting the reinforcing member 6 and the window sill 12, the screws 5 are not seen from the bathroom room side, and the appearance is good.

Incidentally, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but can be appropriately modified. For example, the reinforcing member 6 may be formed by omitting the upright wall 6b and forming only the lateral wall 6a as shown in FIG. In this case, for each thickness of the wall panel 2, it is necessary to prepare a reinforcing member in which the width dimension of the corresponding concave ridge portion 7 is set.

[0020]

As described above, in the reinforcing member of the present invention, a concave portion that can be fitted to the end face of the opening formed in the wall panel, and a front end portion of the concave portion on the back surface side of the wall panel. A lateral wall portion extending in the direction of the back side of the opening from the opening portion and an upright wall portion extending at the tip of the lateral wall portion are formed in an S-shaped section,
The whole of them is integrally formed of a self-tappable material, and it is possible to visually inspect whether or not a screw is provided.

The reinforcing members are connected to each other by a block or an L-shaped bracket, so that the wall panel does not crack at the corner of the opening end face. Further, the connecting piece for connecting the reinforcing member and the window sill can be located outside the opening in the opening radial direction, and the connecting piece can be connected without protruding into the opening. Furthermore, when connecting the reinforcing member and the window sill, the screw is not seen from the bathroom room side, and the appearance is good.
