Description

  The present invention relates to a toilet booth, and more particularly, to a toilet booth that can be opened only inward when the door is flat and can be opened outward in an emergency.

  Public facilities, commercial facilities, schools, etc. will have multiple toilet booths. In many of these toilet booths, the doors open inward, but in that case, after the toilet user locks from the inside, the user loses his mind for some reason and falls to the floor. Can happen. In such a situation, it is assumed that it takes time to rescue the user, and sometimes it is too late. Accordingly, various configurations have been proposed for enabling the door to be unlocked quickly from the outside in such an emergency.

  For example, Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-280813) discloses a toilet booth door frame in which a door stop portion that is movable inward is provided at an edge portion of a toilet booth door frame. However, the door frame for the toilet booth according to this proposal is based on the assumption that the height dimensions of the door and the door frame are almost the same, and the door (door edge) that has been widely adopted recently. ) Is about 2 m as usual, and there is a problem when applied to a toilet booth (see FIGS. 1 and 2) in which the door frame reaches the ceiling.

  In other words, when applied to a toilet booth where the door frame reaches the ceiling, if the door frame is opened in an emergency, the door frame edge (door stop) part above the door that does not hit the door edge when the door is closed Since the effect of the edge does not reach, the door frame edge may be deformed and the inward movement operation may not be performed normally. Moreover, in the case of the toilet booth door frame according to this proposal, since many parts of the edge member made of aluminum and the door stop are exposed, there is also a problem that the appearance is not good.

  As described above, when the door frame for a conventional toilet booth is applied to a toilet booth of the type in which the door frame reaches the ceiling, when the door frame is opened in an emergency, the door frame edge does not hit the portion that hits the door edge Due to the formation of the portion, there is a fear that the normal inward movement operation may not be performed due to deformation. In addition, in the case of the toilet booth door frame according to this proposal, there is a problem that many of the aluminum edge members and the door stop portions are exposed and the appearance is impaired.

  Therefore, the present invention does not have such a problem, that is, when applied to a toilet booth of a type in which the door frame reaches the ceiling, the edge mechanism that operates in an emergency operates normally even when the door is opened in an emergency. In addition, it is an object of the present invention to provide a toilet booth in which the portion is not exposed and the appearance is not impaired.

The invention according to claim 1 for solving the above problem is a toilet booth provided with edge members respectively corresponding to the opposing edges of the door and the door frames on both sides thereof,
The edge material on the door end side of the door swings by being pivotally supported at an edge frame fitted to the mouth part of the door and an end part of the edge frame in the booth outer direction, and the edge part is A movable curved plate that is locked by an end of an edge frame, and the movable curved plate is always urged toward the door frame by an elastic body disposed inside thereof, and the door is booted in an emergency. The toilet booth is characterized in that the door is allowed to rotate outwardly of the booth by being pushed in sliding contact with an edge material of the facing door frame as it is pulled outward.

  In one embodiment, at least a part of the edge material is installed so as to fit between ends of the surface material of the panel constituting the door. Moreover, in one embodiment, the decorative resin film to be covered on the surface material of the panel constituting the door is extended to the top of the door, and the whole or a part of the exposed surface of the edge material is covered. In addition, the decorative resin film to be covered on the surface material of the panel constituting the door frame is extended to the top of the door frame to cover the whole or a part of the exposed surface of the edge material. .

  In one embodiment, the door frame reaches the ceiling. In another embodiment, the door frame further includes a space between the door and the ceiling.

  In one embodiment, the elastic body is a leaf spring or other spring material, and in another embodiment, the elastic body is an elastic resin.

  The present invention is as described above, and according to the toilet booth according to the present invention, since the movable curved plate is installed in the small edge portion of the door, when applied to a toilet booth of the type in which the door frame reaches the ceiling However, the external force applied to the movable curved plate when it is opened in an emergency is uniform over the entire length, so that the normal operation of the movable curved plate is maintained, and each edge member is concealed. As a result, the edge material is conspicuous and the appearance is not impaired.

It is a whole perspective view of other embodiments of the toilet booth according to the present invention. It is a principal part cross-sectional view of one Embodiment of the toilet booth which concerns on this invention. It is a principal part cross-sectional view which shows operation | movement of embodiment shown in FIG. It is a principal part cross-sectional view which shows operation | movement of other embodiment of the toilet booth which concerns on this invention.

  A mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 and 2 are overall perspective views of different embodiments of the toilet booth according to the present invention. As shown therein, the toilet booth according to the present invention includes a door 1 and its door as well as a general one. Although it comprises the door frames 2 and 3 on both sides, the toilet booth according to the present invention is particularly suitable for implementation in a type in which the door frames 2 and 3 reach the ceiling. What is shown in FIG. 1 is a type in which the upper side of the door 1 is opened, and what is shown in FIG. 2 is provided with a space 9 reaching the ceiling on the upper side of the door 1.

  3 to 5 are cross-sectional views of a toilet booth according to the present invention. As shown therein, the toilet booth according to the present invention is a door 1 and door frames 2, 3 on both sides thereof, as in the general case. Each of the opposing edges is provided with a corresponding edge material 4-7.

  The edge material 4 on the door end side of the door 1 among the edge materials 4 to 7 is an edge frame 11 that is fitted into the mouth portion of the door 1 and a shaft that can swing at the end of the edge frame 11 in the booth outer direction. The movable curved plate 12 is supported. The movable curved plate 12 is always urged outward by an elastic body 13 disposed on the inner side thereof, and its end edge is locked by the end of the edge frame 11. As will be described later, the movable curved plate 12 resists the urging force of the elastic body 13 as it slides on the edge material 5 of the opposing door frame 2 when the door 1 is pulled outward from the booth in an emergency. Then, the door 1 is allowed to turn in the booth outward direction by being pushed and turned.

  The elastic body 13 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is a leaf spring or other spring material, and the elastic body 13 shown in FIG. 5 is a belt-like elastic resin body.

  Preferably, the edge material 4 on the door tip side of the door 1 and the edge material 6 of the door frame 2 corresponding thereto are between the ends of the surface materials 15 and 16 on the front and back of the panel constituting the door 1 and the door frames 2 and 3. (See FIGS. 3 to 5). In such a case, the edge members 4 and 6 are hidden between the end portions of the surface members 15 and 16 and are not exposed except when the door is opened, so that the edge members 4 and 6 are not noticeably deteriorated. The other edge materials 5 and 7 can have the same configuration.

  More preferably, the decorative resin film 17 is applied to the front and back surface materials 15 and 16 of the panel constituting the door 1 and the door frame 2, and the decorative resin film 17 is extended to wrap around the end of the mouth, The whole exposed surface of the materials 4 and 6 shall be covered. By adopting such a configuration, the edge members 4 and 6 are reliably concealed and are not exposed, so that the edge members 4 and 6 made of aluminum are exposed and the appearance is not impaired at all. Similarly, the edge materials 5 and 7 are preferably covered with the decorative resin film 17.

  Similarly to a general toilet booth, a slide lock 19 that is slid from the inside of the booth is attached to the door 1, and a puller 20 is attached to the outside thereof. The door frame 2 is provided with a lock receiver 21 that receives the slide lock 19. The puller 20 includes means for enabling the slide lock 19 to be unlocked from the outside of the door 1 in an emergency. Various configurations are known as locking / unlocking means for the slide lock 19 and the like, and any configuration can be employed.

  In the case of the toilet booth according to the present invention having the above-described configuration, after the toilet user locks from the inside, he / she falls down for some reason and falls into the door 1 so that the door 1 cannot be opened inward. The slide lock 19 is unlocked by operating the puller 20 from the outside of the booth. After that, when the door 1 is pulled outward with the puller 20, the movable curved plate 12 of the edge member 4 comes into sliding contact with the outer end portion of the opposing edge member 6. The reaction is received from the outer end portion of the facing edge member 6 and is pushed against the urging force of the elastic body 13. Thus, when the movable curved plate 12 rotates inward, there is no resistance, and the door 1 can be opened to the outside of the booth, so that the toilet user can be rescued.

  The structure of the toilet booth according to the present invention is applicable to a type in which the door 1 and the door frames 2 and 3 have the same height, as well as a type in which the door frames 2 and 3 reach the ceiling. (Refer to FIG. 1), and further, it is suitable to be applied to a type (see FIG. 2) in which the upper space portion of the door 1 is closed by a space 9 reaching the ceiling. That is, in the case of the toilet booth according to the present invention, since the movable curved plate 12 is installed in the small portion of the door 1, even when the door frame 2, 3 is applied to a toilet booth that reaches the ceiling, Since the external force applied to the movable curved plate 12 when it is opened outward in an emergency becomes uniform over the entire length, normal operation of the movable curved plate 12 is always ensured.

  Moreover, in the case of the toilet booth according to the present invention, the edge materials 4 to 7 are concealed and are not conspicuous, so that the appearance of the edge materials 4 to 7 is not impaired.
