Description

The present invention relates to exterior structures.

Conventionally, known fences and gateposts used to surround residential properties include those constructed by stacking concrete blocks or bricks, and those constructed by attaching panels to a frame and then applying appropriate decoration such as tiles (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). In recent years, exterior structure configurations have become significantly more diverse, and for example, open exterior structures that have an open design with no fence in some areas, and closed exterior structures that have a closed design with fences and gateposts that clearly divide the site, have been known. Furthermore, with the rise in awareness of crime prevention in recent years, closed exterior structures are increasingly being designed with high fences and gateposts to make it difficult to see inside the site from outside.

On the other hand, parking spaces such as carports and garages are often provided on the premises, and lift-up or sliding car gates may be provided to accommodate these parking spaces (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

The following describes the gatepost movable unit and the fence movable unit as exterior structures according to an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to the drawings. However, the scope of the invention is not limited to the illustrated examples. In the following description, parts with the same functions and configurations are given the same reference numerals, and their description will be omitted.

First, before describing the exterior structure according to this embodiment, an example of the configuration of a conventional house will be described with reference to FIG. 9. Note that in FIG. 9, the fence is shown partially cut away for ease of explanation of the site.

As shown in Figure 9, the site P is configured with fences 101 erected on the left, right, and rear sides, and gateposts 1002a-1002c with gate doors 103 or car gates 104 attached erected in front facing road R1, dividing the inside and outside of the site P by a closed exterior. Various materials are used for the fences 101 and gateposts 1002a-1002c, such as concrete blocks, bricks, and also decorative materials such as panels attached to posts with tiles applied to the surface. Also, retaining walls may be installed as necessary.

A house H is built on the site P, and in front of it, in addition to a garden and approach (not shown), a carport 108 is formed on the rear side of the car gate 104 in which a car C1 can be parked. A roof may be installed on the carport 108 to protect it from the rain.

The gate 103 is equipped with a pair of left and right door bodies (103L, 103R). The left door body 103L is a door body that is mainly used when people enter and exit. In the form shown in FIG. 9, it is connected by a hinge to the right end of the back of the gate post 1002a located approximately in the center, and can be opened and closed toward the premises as shown by arrow A. On the other hand, the right door body 103R is a door body that is mainly used when it is desired to expand and open the gate 103, and is connected by a hinge to the left end of the back of the gate post 1002b located at the right end of the premises. In addition, the right door body 103R is normally locked to the ground by a stopper, and can be opened and closed toward the premises as shown by arrow B by releasing the lock of this stopper. The gate 103 configured in this way is temporarily fastened by engaging the latch bolt on the left door body 103L with the locking hole on the right door body 103R, and the lock is released by rotating the handle of the left door body 103L, allowing the left door body 103L to be opened.

The car gate 104 has a rolling member such as a roller at the bottom, and is supported by a support member provided at the left end of the gatepost 1002a, and is configured to be slidable left and right as indicated by the arrow S. By sliding the car gate 104 to open it, the car C1 can be brought into and out of the carport 108. Note that various types of car gates are used, and in addition to the sliding door type shown in Figure 9, various types of car gates are known, such as accordion types and flip-up types.

In addition, a mailbox 105, a nameplate 106, and an intercom 107 are provided near the right end of the gatepost 1002a, i.e., near the left door body 103L of the gate 103.

In a conventional house configured in this way, for example, if a visitor arrives by car, and the family car C1 is parked in the carport 108, it is difficult to park the visitor's car on the premises, and therefore the visitor is forced to park in a nearby paid parking lot, for example, which is inconvenient. For such cases, there is a growing need to provide reserved parking spaces for visitors, but since these are not used very often, there are cases where a design such as providing a car gate reduces the design quality and is inferior in terms of crime prevention. In this embodiment, as described below, an exterior structure is provided that can solve such problems.

Figure 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a house according to this embodiment. Note that in Figures 1 to 3, the fence is shown partially cut away to facilitate explanation of the site.

As shown in Figure 1, the site P is configured with fences 101 erected on the left, right, and rear sides, and gate posts 102a to 102d (note that gate post 102a is sometimes referred to as movable gate post 102a) on which a gate door 103 or car gate 104 is mounted, erected in front facing road R1, and the inside and outside of the site P are divided by a closed exterior structure.

A house H has been built on the site P, and in front of it, in addition to a garden and approach (not shown), a carport 108 capable of parking a car C1 has been formed on the rear side of the car gate 104. Note that the same reference numerals are used for the various structures formed on the site P shown in Figure 9, and detailed explanations will be omitted.

In this embodiment, the gate post movable unit 200 has a movable gate post 102a. The movable gate post 102a is connected to the left door body 103L of the gate 103 by a hinge, and the left door body 103L can be opened and closed toward the premises. By moving the gate post movable unit 200, the movable gate post 102a can be slid left and right as shown by the arrow R. The movable gate post 102a is also provided with a mailbox 105, a nameplate 106, and an interphone 107. Other components, such as a delivery mailbox, may also be arranged. It is not necessary to arrange all of the mailbox 105, the nameplate 106, and the interphone 107, and some or all of them may not be arranged. The movable gate post 102a and the configuration for moving it will be described later.

Gatepost 102b and gatepost 102c are similar to gatepost 1002b and gatepost 1002c in the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, so a detailed description will be omitted.

The gatepost 102d is equipped with a support member that supports the car gate 104, and supports the car gate 104 so that it can slide.

In this embodiment, the movable gate post 102a is positioned at a specified distance behind the gate post 102d, so that when the movable gate post 102a slides, it prevents the mailbox 105, nameplate 106, and intercom 107 from coming into contact with the gate post 102d, and avoids contact with the car gate 104. If the movable gate post 102a is positioned so that it partially overlaps with the gate post 102d in the depth direction, it can be made more difficult to see inside the premises. Also, a stopper means may be provided to prevent the movable gate post 102a from moving inadvertently when it is in the closed or open position.

In the site P according to this embodiment, which has the above-described exterior configuration, for example, a space capable of parking one car (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "reserve parking space") is formed on the left side of the approach between the entrance and gate 103, where, for example, a visitor's car C2 (see Figure 3) can be temporarily parked. Below, the procedure for parking a car in the reserve parking space will be explained with reference to Figures 1 to 3.

First, as shown in FIG. 1, the left gate door 103L and the right gate door 103R are opened as indicated by arrows A and B, respectively, and then the movable gate post unit 200 is moved to slide the movable gate post 102a to the left as indicated by arrow R, creating a space large enough for one car to pass through, as shown in FIG. 2.

Then, for example, the visitor's car C2 is moved through the space created in the manner described above to a reserved parking space within the site P.

After the visitor's car C2 has been parked in the reserved parking space, the door closing procedure is performed in the reverse order to that described above. That is, the gatepost movable unit 200 is moved to slide the movable gatepost 102a to the right, and then the left gate door 103L and the right gate door 103R are closed, completing the door closing procedure.

Next, the configuration of the gatepost movable unit 200 will be described with reference to Figure 4.

The gatepost movable unit 200 includes a rectangular case body 201 that is buried in the ground and extends in the left-right direction, and a movable member 202 that is housed in the case body 201 and can slide along the extension direction of the case body 201. Here, a guide groove 201a is opened in the center of the upper surface of the case body 201 along the extension direction, and two cylindrical supports 203, 203 are erected upward in the center of the upper surface of the movable member 202 and penetrate the guide groove 201a of the case body 201. Also, as shown in FIG. 4(B), a communication groove G is formed in the ground along the guide groove 201a of the case body 201 and connects the guide groove 201a to the ground surface, and the supports 203, 203 erected from the movable member 202 are inserted into the ground. In this embodiment, two supports 203, 203 are provided on the movable member 202, but one or three or more may be provided. The shape of the support pillar can also be any suitable shape; for example, it can be a rectangular pillar or a square shape extending in the sliding direction.

The movable gate post 102a is fixed by inserting the support posts 203, 203 from the bottom surface. At this time, a clearance is formed between the movable gate post 102a and the ground surface so that the movable gate post 102a can slide. Note that a rolling member such as a roller that comes into contact with the ground surface may be provided on the bottom surface of the movable gate post 102a to support the movable gate post 102a and assist the sliding movement of the movable gate post 102a.

In addition, the movable member 202 has an appropriate number of ball transfers 202a arranged in a matrix on the bottom, top, front and rear surfaces of the movable member 202 when viewed from the front, making it easy for the movable member 202 to slide left and right. The load on the movable gate post 102a is applied to the movable member 202 via the support posts 203, 203, which means that the movable member 202 supports the movable gate post 102a. In this embodiment, the movable member 202 extends in a direction that intersects with the wall surface of the movable gate post 102a, which improves the wind pressure resistance and earthquake resistance of the movable gate post 102a, for example. In this embodiment, ball transfers are used as the rolling bodies, but other types of rolling bodies may be used, such as rollers, as long as they allow the movable member 202 to slide.

Here, within a range of a certain distance from the road within the site P, the gatepost is inclined at a certain angle θ (e.g., 2%) toward the road side to allow for drainage within the site P. For this reason, the bottom surface of the movable gatepost 102a is shaped to follow the slope of the ground, so that the movable gatepost 102a does not interfere with the ground when moved.

In addition, a drain groove 201b is provided at an appropriate position on the lower part of the case body 201 to drain rainwater and the like that has entered through the communication groove G, and the water is discharged, for example, into a sewer pipe via a drain pipe 201c.

In addition, near the front and rear of the opening of the communication groove G when viewed from the front, dust-preventing protrusions 204f, 204r are provided along the extension direction of the communication groove G, and further, near the opening on the inner circumference of the communication groove G, brush units 205f, 205r are provided to prevent foreign matter such as dust from entering the communication groove G.

The movable gate post unit 200 in this embodiment is configured as described above, and is configured to allow the movable gate post 102a to be moved manually, for example, but it may also be configured to allow the movable member 202 to slide using an actuator such as a motor, and to allow the movable gate post 102a to move automatically by operating a switch or the like. In addition, although not shown, stoppers may be provided at the positions where the movable gate post 102a is in the closed state and the open state, so that the movable gate post 102a does not easily move in the open and closed states.

In addition, in this embodiment, an example has been described in which the gate post movable unit 200 is applied to one of the gate posts arranged on the left and right, but the gate post movable unit 200 may also be applied to both of the gate posts arranged on the left and right.

Next, an example of applying the above-mentioned gatepost movable unit 200 to a fence will be described with reference to FIG. 5. Note that the same reference numerals will be used for the various structures formed on the site P shown in FIG. 9, and detailed descriptions will be omitted.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, fence 101a is placed adjacent to the back of the right end of gatepost 1002b on the right side, fence 101c is placed behind it with a gap large enough for one car to pass through, and movable fence 101b, which constitutes movable fence unit 300 and can slide in a direction along the wall surface, is placed in a position to close the gap. Here, fences 101a to 101c on the right side face road R2. Note that both side ends of movable fence 101b may be placed so as to overlap with the rear of fences 101a and 101c, respectively, and this configuration makes it even more difficult to see inside site P. Furthermore, fence 101d placed at the rear of site P and fence 101e placed on the left side are similar to fence 101 shown in FIG. 9, so a description thereof will be omitted.

The configuration of the movable fence unit 300 in the embodiment shown in Figure 5 is the same as that of the gate post movable unit 200 shown in Figure 4, except that the movable gate post 102a of the gate post movable unit 200 is replaced with a movable fence 101b, so a detailed description will be omitted.

Even if the movable fence unit 300 is configured as shown in Figure 5, it is possible to allow cars to enter and exit the reserved parking space, so the same effect as the above-mentioned embodiment is achieved.

Next, referring to Figures 6 to 8, another embodiment of the present invention will be described. Note that in Figure 6, the fence is also partially cut away for ease of explanation of the site. Also, the same reference numerals are used for configurations similar to those in the above-mentioned embodiment, and explanations will be omitted.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, a gatepost movable unit 400 is provided in place of the gatepost movable unit 200 shown in FIG. 1. Specifically, the gatepost movable unit 400 includes a movable gatepost 4102a on which the above-mentioned mailbox 105, nameplate 106, and intercom 107 are provided. The movable gatepost 4102a can be rotated toward the site P, as indicated by the arrow T, with the vertical direction as a rotation axis near the left end.

In this embodiment, as in the above-described embodiment, the movable gate post 4102a is positioned at a predetermined distance behind the gate post 102d, so that the movable gate post 4102a does not interfere with the gate post 102d when the movable gate post 4102a rotates. Again, if the movable gate post 4102a is positioned so that it partially overlaps with the gate post 102d in the depth direction, it can make it difficult to see inside the premises.

With the site P according to this embodiment having the above-described exterior configuration, when, for example, a visitor's car is to be parked in the reserved parking space, the left gate door 103L and the right gate door 103R are first opened in the manner described above, and then the movable gate post unit 400 is moved to rotate the movable gate post 4102a toward the site P as shown by the arrow T, creating a space large enough for one car to pass through.

After that, after parking the car in the reserved parking space, the door closing operation is performed in the reverse order to the above-mentioned procedure. That is, the gate post movable unit 400 is moved to rotate the movable gate post 4102a to the front side, and then the left gate door 103L and the right gate door 103R are closed, thereby completing the door closing operation.

Next, the configuration of the gatepost movable unit 400 will be described with reference to Figures 7 and 8.

In this embodiment, the movable gate post unit 400 has a square support member 406 on the left side when viewed from the front, which is buried in the ground and extends in a direction approximately perpendicular to the wall surface of the movable gate post 4102a (depth direction), and a cylindrical rotating shaft 407 is erected upward from approximately the center of the upper surface of the support member 406. The rotating shaft 407 protrudes above the ground surface and is inserted into a bearing hole 408 opened in the bottom surface near the left end of the movable gate post 4102a.

The gatepost movable unit 400 has an arc-shaped case body 401 with a pivot shaft 407 as its axis, which is buried in the ground at a position eccentric to the pivot shaft 407, and a movable member 402 shaped to match the inner circumference of the case body 401 is housed in the case body 401. A guide groove 401a is provided in the center of the top surface of the case body 401, which follows the shape of the case body 401, while a cylindrical support 403 is erected upward in the center of the top surface of the movable member 402, and the support 403 is provided so as to pass through the guide groove 401a of the case body 401.

In addition, the movable member 402 has an appropriate number of the above-mentioned ball transfers 402a arranged on the bottom, top, front and rear surfaces when viewed from the front, making it easy for the movable member 402 to slide. As mentioned above, other rolling members may be used in place of the ball transfers 402a.

Also, as in the above-described embodiment, the case body 401 is provided with a drain groove 401b and a drain pipe 401c.

In addition, a communication groove C' that is shaped along the guide groove 401a is opened on the ground so as to connect the guide groove 401a to the ground surface, and the upper part of the support 403 of the movable member 402 is inserted through the communication groove G' and appears above the ground surface. The upper part of the support 403 that appears above the ground surface is inserted and fixed from the bottom surface of the movable gate post 4102a on the right side as viewed from the front, so that when the movable member 402 slides along the case body 401, it rotates around the pivot 407 of the support member 406. As in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4B and described above, the bottom surface of the movable gate post 4102a is formed to have an upward incline from the front side to the back side, and a clearance is formed between the bottom surface of the movable gate post 4102a and the ground surface.

In addition, in this embodiment, the movable gate post 4102a is inclined toward the road side to allow drainage within the site P, so when the movable gate post 4102a rotates in the depth direction relative to the wall surface, its bottom surface interferes with the ground surface during movement of the movable gate post 4012a. Therefore, in this embodiment, the case body 401 is arranged to have a slight upward incline to follow the inclination of the ground surface, and a clearance is provided between the rotation axis 407 of the support member 406 and the bearing hole 408 of the movable gate post 4102a. As shown in FIG. 7, a guide roller 409 is provided on the bottom surface of the movable gate post 4102a adjacent to the bearing hole 408. As the movable gate post 4102a rotates in the depth direction, the movable gate post 4102a rises along the ground surface, and the distance between the movable gate post 4102a and the ground surface is maintained to avoid interference.

In this embodiment, the movable gate post 4102a is lifted by the guide of the guide roller 409, but it goes without saying that any configuration that performs a similar function can be applied. For example, a spiral guide groove may be formed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 407, and an engagement part along the guide groove may be provided in the bearing hole 408, so that when the movable gate post 4102a moves, the action of the guide groove and the engagement part causes the movable gate post 4102a to move up and down along the slope of the ground surface. Alternatively, an actuator such as a hydraulic motor may be provided, and the position of the movable gate post 4102a may be detected by a detection means such as an encoder, and the actuator may be operated to move the movable gate post 4102a up and down to a height according to the detection result, thereby maintaining the clearance between the movable gate post 4102a and the ground surface.

In this embodiment, an example in which the movable gatepost 4102a is rotated to allow the entrance and exit of a vehicle has been described, but it goes without saying that the present invention can also be applied to a fence. In addition, the present invention is not limited to a configuration in which only one of the gatepost and the fence is movable, but can also be a configuration in which both the gatepost and the fence are movable, a configuration in which multiple gateposts are movable, a configuration in which multiple fences are movable, or a configuration in which one or more gateposts and one or more fences are movable. Furthermore, the configuration in which the gatepost or fence is movable can be a configuration in which only a sliding one is provided, a configuration in which only a rotating one is provided, or a configuration in which both a sliding one and a rotating one are provided. In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, an example in which a carport 108 is provided and another car is parked in the reserve parking space has been described, but the present invention can also be applied to a site in which only a reserve parking space is provided without a carport 108, and a configuration in which the above-mentioned gatepost movable unit is provided in correspondence with the carport 108 can also be adopted, rather than adopting a configuration in which a car gate 104 is provided for the carport 108.

In addition, in this embodiment, an example in which the movable gatepost unit 400 is applied to one of the left and right gateposts has been described, but the movable gatepost unit 400 may be applied to both the left and right gateposts. Also, the movable gatepost unit 200 (see FIG. 1) that slides left and right may be applied to one of the left and right gateposts, and the movable gatepost unit 400 that rotates may be applied to the other gatepost.

As described above, the case body 201 (401) is buried in the ground, extending in a direction along the ground, and a guide groove 201a (401a) is formed in a part of the upper surface along the extending direction. The movable member 202 (402) is housed in the case body 201 (401) and can slide along the extending direction of the case body 201 (401). The support 203 (403) is erected upward from the upper part of the movable member 202 (402) and protrudes from the guide groove 201a (401a) of the case body 201 (401). The movable gate post 102a (4102a) is arranged above the ground and erected in the vertical direction, and the support 203 (403) is inserted and fixed from the lower end, forming a wall supported by the support 203 (403). The movable gatepost 102a (4102a) can be displaced together with the movable member 202 (402). As a result, it is possible to provide an exterior structure that can enhance the design of the exterior. In addition, the wall-shaped main body can be used to cover the premises of a parking space that is not regularly used, improving crime prevention.

Moveable member 202 (402) extends in a direction (depth direction) that intersects with the wall surface of movable gatepost 102a (4102a). Support post 203 (403) stands upright from the upper center of the extension direction of movable member 202 (402) toward the upper side. As a result, wind pressure resistance and earthquake resistance can be improved.

The movable member does not necessarily have to extend in a direction intersecting the wall surface of the main body, and it is preferable if separate measures can be taken to ensure wind resistance and earthquake resistance. Also, the support pillar does not necessarily have to be erected upward from the upper center in the extension direction of the movable member, and may be erected at a position offset from the upper center in the extension direction of the movable member.

Moveable member 202 (402) also has a plurality of ball transfers 202a (402a) on its bottom surface. The plurality of ball transfers 202a (402a) on the bottom surface of movable member 202 (402) roll in contact with the inner bottom surface of case body 201 (401), allowing movable member 202 (402) to slide along the extension direction. This allows the main body to move more smoothly.

Note that, as long as the movable member is slidable relative to the inner bottom surface of the case body, something other than a rolling member may be used. For example, a gap may be created between the case body and the movable member using magnetic force or compressed air, thereby reducing the frictional resistance between the case body and the movable member, making the movable member slidable. Also, a configuration without a rolling member may be used.

Moveable member 202 (402) also has a plurality of ball transfers 202a (402a) on the upper surface. The plurality of ball transfers 202a (402a) on the upper surface of movable member 202 (402) are in contact with the inner circumferential upper surface of case body 201 (401) and are capable of rolling. This allows the main body to move more smoothly.

Note that it is not necessary to place a rolling member on the upper surface of the movable member.

The case body 201 extends in a direction along the wall surface of the movable gatepost 102a. When the movable member 202 slides in the extension direction of the case body 201, the movable gatepost 102a slides in a direction along the wall surface. This makes it possible to save space. Also, the operation of moving the main body is made easier.

It also has a rotating shaft 407 and a bearing hole 408 that supports the rotating shaft 407, one of which protrudes from the ground and the other is provided at one end of the bottom of the movable gatepost 4102a. The case body 401 has an arc shape with the rotating shaft 407 as its axis. The support 403 protruding from the movable member 402 is inserted and fixed from the other end of the bottom of the movable gatepost 4102a, so that the movable gatepost 4102a is supported by the support 403. The movable member 402 slides along the shape of the case body 401, so that the movable gatepost 4102a rotates around the rotating shaft 407 as a support axis. This makes it easier to move the main body.

The actions and effects described in the embodiments of the present invention are merely a list of the most favorable actions and effects resulting from the present invention, and the actions and effects of the present invention are not limited to those described in the embodiments of the present invention.
