体として低コストでできる。The width of the heat-insulating bridge material is made wider than that of the receiving material in the width perpendicular to the connection direction of the indoor and outdoor aluminum profiles, so that the receiving material is connected and fixed to both aluminum profiles. As a main member, resin liquid is used for the purpose of preventing rattling occurring in the gap between the aluminum profile and the receiving material, dimensional regulation, and water stop treatment. In this case, the receiving material is made of aluminum and has a groove-shaped engaging groove. By sliding, uniformity of strength quality can be achieved and stable strength can be obtained. Also, since the usage fee of resin solution is small, material cost is low, production speed is fast and overall speed is low. Can be done at cost.
