2. Description of the Related Art A joint material is provided in a gap between ends of a siding covering an outer wall of a house in order to prevent water from entering or air from entering or exiting from this portion. Conventionally, a wet sealing material made of silicone resin has been generally used as the joint material. On the other hand, as a dry type, one having a structure shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 7C is disclosed in JP-A-8-49315.

In FIG. 7C, reference numeral 30 denotes a siding, 32 denotes a joint material attached to a joint 33 between the sidings 30, 30, and the joint material 32 is a gasket material 34 made of a hard member. And a sealing material 35 made of a foam material attached to the leg 34a. Then, as shown in the figure, the joint material 32 is mounted by inserting the seal material 35 into the joint 33.

Among the above-mentioned prior arts, a wet joint material in which a sealing material such as a silicone resin is filled between sidings or the like requires time to dry the sealing material.
There is a problem that it takes time for construction.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7 (C), a structure in which a sealing material 35 of a joint material 32 is sandwiched between sidings 30, 30 is caused by a variation in length of the siding 30 and a variation in construction. If the width of the joints 33 between the joints varies, and if the width of the joints 33 is wider than a predetermined width, the compression degree of the sealing material 35 is reduced, and the joint material 32 is easily removed from the joints. Further, when the width of the joint 33 increases due to the shrinkage of the siding 30 due to a change with time, the joint material 32 is easily removed. In particular, if the siding 30 is of ceramic type, 15%
Having a water content of about 10
% In the case of siding having a length of about 3000 mm, a shrinkage of 2 to 3 mm occurs. For example, when a sealing material 35 having a width of 10 mm is used after being compressed by about 3 mm, the degree of compression and the variation are reduced. Some things come out easily.

The joint material 32 shown in FIG. 7C has a structure in which the head 34b of the gasket material 34 is also inserted into the joint 33. Therefore, when the joint 33 becomes wider, the joint 34 becomes larger at the head 34b.
3 cannot be hidden, and there is a problem that the appearance deteriorates.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a siding having a structure in which joints are not seen from the outside and joint members provided at joints between sidings or between a siding and a fitting frame are difficult to come off. Aim.

Is located in a gap 10 formed by the body edge 9 and the like between the inner surface of the siding 1 and the frame 8, and the width W3 of the tip is larger than the width W1 of the joint 2 due to the elasticity of the soft member 5. The width is enlarged. In addition, as shown in the present embodiment, it is preferable that the tip of the insertion piece 7 is also located inside the inner surface of the siding 1, but the tip of the soft member 5 has a size larger than the width W1 of the joint 2. If so, the tip of the insertion piece 7 may be the inner surface or the outer surface of the siding 1.

As described above, the tip of the soft member 5 is located in the gap 10 between the inner surface of the siding 1 and the outer surface of the frame 8, and the width W3 of the portion located in the gap 10 is larger than the width W1 of the joint 2. By doing so, it becomes difficult for the joint object 3 to come off. Further, even if the siding 1 shrinks due to a change over time and the soft member 5 is hardened and the elasticity is reduced, and a gap is formed between the siding 1 and the soft member 5, even if the soft member 5 is Enlarging part 5a
Makes it difficult for the joint object 3 to escape. In the present embodiment, an enlarged portion 7a is formed at the tip of the insertion piece 7, thereby preventing the insertion piece 7 from peeling off from the soft member 5 and falling out.

The width W2 of the joint hiding piece 6 is determined by the variation of the width W1 of the joint 2 and the contraction of the siding 1 by the joint W.
Since the joint hiding piece 6 is set to a size that can cover the joint 2 in any case, assuming an enlargement of 1, the joint 2 is not seen from the outside in any case, and the appearance is good.

In the embodiment described above, an example is shown in which one soft member 5 is used to form the sealing material for the joint 3, but as shown in FIG. The soft members 50 and 51 may be attached to both sides of the insertion piece 7 with a double-sided tape or an adhesive to form a sealing material.

The joint 3 is, for example, 12
For the siding 1 set to various thicknesses in the range of 16 mm to 16 mm, the length of the insertion piece 7 of the joint 3 is set to the length of the siding 1 having the maximum thickness so that the joint 3 can be used as a kind. Is set, the price of the joint 3 can be reduced as compared with a case where various types of joints 3 are prepared according to the thickness of the siding 1, and component management becomes easy. .

FIGS. 2 to 7 show another embodiment of the siding of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the siding 1 is arranged around the fitting frame 11, and FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view showing a state before the joints 3A to 3C are attached. 4, 5, and 6 show joint joints 3 between the vertical frame 12, the lower frame 13, and the upper frame 14 siding 1, respectively.
