It is preferable to form a pair of symmetrical metal plates back to back by riveting, welding, or any other suitable fastening means.

On the other hand, vertical extension portions 36, 36 are integrally formed on the vertical base edge of the plate-shaped main body 35 of the support 30b so as to extend left and right at, for example, two upper and lower portions. Further, along the leading edge of the plate-shaped main body 35, vertically extending portions 37, 37 are integrally formed so as to project right and left. Similarly to the support 30a, the support 30b is formed by fixing a pair of left and right symmetrical metal plates, which are formed by integrally bending a vertical overhang 36 and a vertical overhang 37 on one side, back to back. preferable.

The supports 30a and 30b described above are
In each case, as shown in FIG. 3, the vertical extension portions 32, 36 on the proximal end side are fixed to the front surface of the hanging bundle 5 with screws 40, 41 so that they protrude forward from the hanging bundle 5. Can be In the attached state, the support members 30a, 30b are moved in the front-rear direction such that the front ends thereof extend in the front-rear dimension of the cover case 11 to be mounted, that is, in the middle of the width of the cover or slightly forward. Length is designed.

The support 30a is located below the support 30b. 3, the support 30a projects obliquely downward along the end wall 7 when the cover case 11 is mounted, and the end wall of the cover case 11 is placed on the horizontal extension 33 on the distal end side. Designed to support dimensions. Further, the end wall 7 of the cover case 11 is opposed to the vertical extension 37 on the distal end side of the support 30b.
The overhanging piece 45 is cut and raised on the side of the overhanging portion 37. The opening remaining after cutting and raising the overhanging piece 45 is indicated by reference numeral 46. This structure is similarly provided for the cover case 11 adjacent to the right side in FIG.

In the illustrated example, the cover case 11 has a generally rectangular tube shape, and the end wall 7 is formed in the cover case 1.
It is fixed to the cover case main body in advance so as to be integral with the main body. At the outside of the end wall 7 of the cover case 11 located on both sides of the window, the side covers 2
2 is given.

Next, a description will be given of a procedure for mounting the cover cases 11, 11 adjacent to the left and right with the above-described configuration. After attaching each shutter body 6 to the front face of each shutter body mounting section 8 of the rectangular frame by screwing or the like in the same manner as before, the front face of the hanging bundle 5 exposed between the adjacent shutter bodies 6, 6. Then, the support 30a and the support 30b are attached as shown in FIG. That is, the projecting portions 3 on both sides of the support 30a
2 and 32 are attached to predetermined positions on the front surface of the hanging bundle 5 by screws 40 and 40, and the projecting portions 36 and 36 on both sides of the support 30 b are attached to predetermined positions on the front surface of the hanging bundle 5 by screws 41 and 41.

As described above, the support 30a and the support 30
In the state where b has been mounted at the position shown in FIG. 3, for example, the mounting work of the first cover case 11 shown in FIG. 3 is started. To attach the first cover case 11 so as to cover the shutter body 6, as shown in FIG. 7 and a partially enlarged view of FIG. 8, a hook-shaped cross section formed along the rear upper end edge of the cover case 11 A projecting guide plate 53 is formed so that the engaging member 51 is engaged from below with an engaged member 52 having a hook-shaped cross section fixed to the upper front part of the upper horizontal frame of the rectangular frame 50.
And then rotate the cover case 11 as shown by the arrow A in FIG. Thus, the cover case 7 is engaged with and supported by the front portion of the shutter body mounting section as shown in FIG.

In this state, as shown in FIG. 3, the lower surface in the vicinity of the end wall 7 of the cover case 11 is supported on the horizontal projection 33 of the support 30a. On the other hand, the vertical projection 45 of the end wall 7 of the cover case 11 abuts against the front surface of the vertical projection 37 of the support 30b. Thus, the state shown in FIG.
Is supported on at least the horizontal overhang 33 of the support 30a to support its weight. In this state, the screw 55 is screwed into the bottom surface of the cover case 11 from below through the hole of the horizontal extension portion 33, so that the cover case 11 is fixed on the horizontal extension portion 33, and the cover is also covered in the front-rear direction. The case 11 is fixed. . On the other hand, by screwing the screw 56 from the front through the hole of the vertical extension 37 of the support 30b and the hole of the vertical extension piece 45 of the end wall 7 of the cover case 11, the cover case end wall 7 becomes By 30b, it is fixed immovably in the front-back direction and the up-down direction. Thus, the cover case 11 is supported by the support 30 along the end wall 7.

As described above, the first cover case 11
Is completed, the second cover case 11 adjacent thereto is mounted. The attachment of the second cover case 11 is basically performed in the same manner as the attachment of the first cover case 11 shown in FIGS. When the second cover case 11 is attached, its end wall faces the end wall 7 of the first cover case 11 via a narrow gap, and the vertical plate-like supporter is placed in the narrow gap. 30a and the support 30b are located.

As described above, in the conventional case, the on-site work for mounting the cover case 11 having a large protruding width in this narrow gap is extremely difficult because the hanging bundle 5 is deep. However, in the case of the present invention, the support tool 30a and the support tool 30b protrude relatively toward the gap, and the horizontal extension 33 of the support tool 30a is located below the second cover case 11. Since it is exposed on the side surface, the worker can easily perform the work of tightening the screw 55 from below. Also, the vertical extension 33 of the support 30b and the vertical extension piece 45 overlapping the vertical extension 33 are both vertically oriented toward the near side.
The turning operation of the driver for tightening 6 can be easily performed by inserting the driver straight into the gap from the front. Therefore, after the attachment of the first cover case 11 is completed, the operation of attaching the second cover case 11 can be performed easily and reliably. Then, the support 30a and the support 30 of the first cover case 11 are formed.
Even if the attachment to b is performed at this stage, the operation is easy for the same reason. When the connecting window has three or more cover cases, the third and lower cover cases are attached in the same manner as described above.

As described above, after all the cover cases 11 have been attached to the predetermined positions by using the supports 30a and 30b projecting into the gaps between the shutter bodies 6 which have already been attached, FIG. As shown in the figure, a band-shaped front cover 12 is inserted and engaged as shown by arrows so as to cover the gap between the cover cases 11 adjacent to each other from the upper and lower sides. This completes the basic on-site assembly work of the window shutter device.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 10 is a modification of the embodiment shown in FIG. In the embodiment shown in FIG.
Although the first support 30a and the second support 30b are attached to the gap between the adjacent cover cases 11, 11,
In the embodiment of FIG. 10, only the same single support 30a as the first support 30a is provided. In this embodiment, the cover case 11 is not formed in the shape of a square tube as in the case of FIG. Therefore, the upper second support 30 shown in FIG.
b is omitted, and only the lower support 30a is provided, and the cover case 11 is supported from below only by the horizontal projection 33. In this embodiment, vertical overhanging pieces 60, 60 that project laterally are formed in the upper portion on the base end side of the end wall 7 of the cover case 11, and holes formed in the vertically overhanging pieces 60, 60 are formed. Screws are screwed into the front of the hanging bundle 5 to fix the upper part of the cover case 11 to the hanging bundle 5. In FIG. 10, the same reference numerals as in FIG. 3 indicate equivalent parts. As described above, the base end is provided in the narrow gap between the opposing end walls 7, 7 of the adjacent cover cases 11, 11. By providing a vertical plate-like support member whose part is fixed to the front surface of the hanging bundle 5 and protrudes forward, the cover case 1
The opposed end wall portions 1 and 11 are supported by the tips of the supporting members, so that the cover case is securely fixed. It is possible to easily insert a tool such as a screwdriver from the front, reach the support, and easily mount the support and the cover case on site.

[0024]

As is apparent from the above description of the embodiment, in the continuous window shutter device according to the first aspect, it is formed between the end walls of the adjacent large cover case. Since there is a support provided in the gap so as to protrude forward from the hanging bundle, a tool such as a screwdriver is inserted straight into the gap from the front to reach the support, making screw tightening easy and easy. As a result, the cover case of the shutter body can be easily mounted through the gap.

Further, according to the continuous window shutter of the second aspect, since the support is formed by the vertical support plate,
Suitable for installation in a narrow gap of the cover case, and by supporting the end wall of the cover case from below by a projecting part at the tip of the vertical support plate,
In addition to fixing the cover case in the front-rear direction, the support of the weight is particularly ensured.

Furthermore, in the continuous window shutter according to the third aspect, since the support member is formed by the vertical support plate, it is suitable for installation in a narrow gap of the cover case, and the tip of the vertical support plate is extended. Since the portion is overlapped and attached to the overhanging piece projecting from the end wall of the cover case, not only the weight of the cover case is supported, but also the support in the front-rear direction is reliably performed.
