Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a gutter holder for attaching a gutter to a building.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, as a vertical gutter holder for attaching a vertical gutter having engagement grooves formed on both sides to a building, for example, one described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 62-154117 is known. As shown in FIG. 4, this conventional gutter holding tool has an elastic structure in which an engaging convex portion 103 capable of engaging with an engaging groove 102 formed on a side surface of the gutter 101 is formed at a tip end portion thereof. A substantially U-shaped holder main body 105 having a pair of side pieces 104, a narrow substantially U-shaped reinforcing plate 106 provided on the back surface of the holder main body 105, and a central portion of a bottom plate 107. It was composed of a nail-shaped fixing tool 108 that is fixed by projecting its side.

When the gutter 101 is attached to the building by this conventional gutter holder, the fixing tool 108 is struck on the building to fix the gutter holder to the building, and then in the space between the side pieces 104. When the vertical gutter 101 is pushed in, the pushing force causes the tips of the both side pieces 104 to bend outward like a leaf spring, and then when the vertical gutter 101 is correctly set in the space, each engagement is performed. The convex portion 103 engages with the engaging groove 102, and the vertical gutter 101 is held by the vertical gutter holder based on the elastic force of the both side pieces 104.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the above-described conventional gutter holder, the distance between the both side pieces 104 is constant because the both side pieces 104 are integrally formed with one bottom plate 107. Therefore, this gutter holder cannot be used to hold gutters with different width dimensions, and it is necessary to prepare a kind of gutter holder corresponding to the type of gutter width dimension.

Further, the vertical gutter 101 is held on the basis of the elastic force of the both side pieces 104. The elastic force of the both side pieces 104 is used when the vertical gutter is pushed between the both side pieces 104. However, it is difficult to achieve both of them because the force for holding the downpipe 101 and the workability conflict with each other.

Therefore, as a means for solving this, the vertical gutter holder is composed of two members each having a side piece so that the distance between the both side pieces 104, 104 can be changed, and both members are relatively moved. It is conceivable to connect both members as much as possible and fix both members with screws etc. so as not to move relatively.

However, in such a means, the relative positions of both members are adjusted to the dimensions of the gutter, and the side pieces are fixed so as not to move before the gutter is attached. If you place the gutter between the two pieces, move the pieces relative to each other, and then fix them with screws, the gutter will interfere with this screwing work. Then, there arises a problem that it is difficult to perform the work.

The present invention has been made by paying attention to the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. In order to achieve both the vertical gutter retention force and the workability, the vertical gutter holders are respectively provided. It is an object of the present invention to provide a vertical gutter holder that has a structure in which the two side pieces are movable relative to each other and is easy to fix both members.

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in the present invention, engaging projections that can be engaged with the engaging grooves formed on both sides of the vertical gutter are formed at the tip end and are made of an elastic material. And a connecting piece for connecting the base end portions of these two side pieces to each other. The connecting piece is a vertical gutter holder that can be fixed to a building. The piece is divided into a first connecting piece that includes a portion that can be fixed to the building, and a second connecting piece that overlaps the surface of the first connecting piece that holds the gutter, A base member including the first connecting piece and one side piece, and a slide member including a second connecting piece that overlaps the first connecting piece and the other side piece are formed. 2 Both connection pieces can be engaged with each other so that both connection pieces can be held in a stacked state, and the distance between both connection pieces can be changed. The second connecting piece of the slide member is slidable with respect to the base so that the distance between the two side pieces becomes a predetermined distance. A projecting piece that is inserted outward from a hole formed at the base end of the side piece is provided.

[0010]

[Action]

 Explaining the construction procedure, first, the base member is fixed to the building. At this time, the slide member is arranged such that the second connecting piece is overlaid on the first connecting piece of the base member and the distance between the both side pieces is wider than the width dimension of the downpipe.

Next, a vertical gutter is inserted between both side pieces. When doing this work, you can prevent the engaging projections of the side pieces from hitting the vertical gutter by widening the gap between the side pieces sufficiently. Never receive.

Next, the slide member is slid with respect to the base member in such a direction as to reduce the distance between the side pieces, and the engagement protrusions of both side pieces are engaged with the engagement grooves of the vertical gutter. In this state, the projecting piece formed on the slide member is inserted outward from the hole formed in the base member, and projects laterally from the side surface and side piece of the vertical gutter. Then, bend this protrusion so that it does not come out of the hole. Due to this bending, the slide member cannot move with respect to the base member in the direction in which the distance between the side pieces is increased. Therefore, the engagement state between the engagement convex portion and the engagement groove is maintained, and the vertical gutter is held based on the elastic force of the side piece.

The above-described bending work is performed on the side surface of the vertical gutter, and since fine work such as screw tightening is not required, workability is excellent.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First, the configuration of the embodiment will be described.

FIG. 2 is a horizontal cross-sectional view showing a usage state of a vertical gutter holder according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 1 is a vertical gutter formed in a cross-sectional view. Engagement grooves 1a and 1b that are recessed inward are formed on the left and right side surfaces of the vertical gutter 1 over the entire length of the vertical gutter 1. Further, the gutter 1 is attached to the outer wall 4 of the building through the gutter holder 3 of the embodiment.

Next, the vertical gutter holder 3 of the embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a disassembled perspective view showing a vertical gutter holder 3, and FIG. 3 is a plan view showing an assembled state of the vertical gutter holder 3. Each vertical gutter holder 3 has elasticity. It is composed of a receiving member (slide member) 31 formed by bending a metal plate and a base member 32.

The receiving member 31 is formed into a substantially L-shape with a side piece 31a and a bottom plate (second connecting piece) 31b, and the end of the side piece 31a has an engaging groove for the vertical gutter 1. An engagement protrusion 31c that engages with 1a is formed. A projecting piece 31d having a width narrower than that of the bottom plate 31b is continuously formed at the tip of the bottom plate 31b, and an engaging piece 31e is formed at the center of the bottom plate 31b with its tip facing toward the projecting piece 31d. It is cut and raised on the back side.

The base member 32 includes a side piece 32a and a bottom plate (first connecting piece) 32b that are symmetrically formed in an inverted L shape with the receiving tool 31, and further, continuously to the bottom plate 32b. The upright piece 32c and the attachment piece 32d formed in an inverted L shape form a step shape. The side piece 32a is formed to have substantially the same size as the side piece 31a, an engaging protrusion 32e is formed at the tip end thereof, and a width at which the protrusion 31d can be inserted at the base end portion. The slit 32f is formed. Further, a slit 32g having a width that allows the engagement piece 31e to be inserted is also formed at an end portion of the standing piece 32c on the bottom plate 32b side. Therefore, the bottom plate 31b of the receiving member 31 can be superposed on the front surface of the bottom plate 32b of the base member 32, and the bottom plates 31b and the engaging pieces 31e can be inserted into the slits 32f and 32g, respectively. 31b and 32b are held in an overlapping state, and both side pieces 31a and 32a are maintained in a facing state. The mounting piece 32d is provided with a nail hole 32h as a fixing means to the wall 4.

Next, a construction procedure for attaching the vertical gutter 1 to the outer wall 4 using the vertical gutter holder 3 will be described.

First, the base member 32 is arranged at a predetermined mounting position, and a nail is driven into the nail hole 32h to fix the base member 32 to the outer wall 4. Next, as shown in FIG. 1, the receiving member 31 is moved to the base member 32 side to insert the protruding piece 31d into the slit 32f and the locking piece 31e into the slit 13a. In addition, at this time, the protrusion piece 31d and the locking piece 31e are slightly inserted, and the distance between the both side pieces 31a and 32a is set sufficiently wider than the width of the vertical gutter 1.

Next, the vertical gutter 1 is inserted between the both side pieces 31a and 32a, and the back surface of the vertical gutter 1 is brought into contact with the bottom plate 31b. At the time of inserting the vertical gutter 1, since the distance between the both side pieces 31a and 32a is sufficiently widened, the vertical gutter 1 and the engaging projections 31c and 32e do not collide with each other. Since the side pieces 31a and 32a do not receive resistance due to elasticity, workability is good.

Next, the receiving member 31 is slid with respect to the base member 32 as shown by an imaginary line in FIG. 3, and as shown in FIG. 2, the engaging protrusions 31c of the side pieces 31a, 32a, 32e is engaged with the engaging grooves 1a, 1b of the downpipe 1, and then the projection 31d of the receiving member 31 projecting outward from the side piece 32a from the slit 32f is bent at the root portion (Fig. 2, see FIG. 3). As a result, the receiver 31 and the base member 32 are restricted from moving relative to each other in the direction in which the distance between the side pieces 31a and 32a increases. In this way, when fixing the receiving member 31 to the base member 32, only the work of bending the side surface of the vertical gutter 1 and the protruding piece 31d appearing from the side piece 32a is required, and the vertical gutter 1 and the outer wall 4 are It does not require the work of turning a screw in a narrow space, and has excellent workability. Further, since the receiving tool 31 and the base member 32 are movable relative to each other, it is possible to hold a plurality of types of vertical gutters 1 having different width dimensions.

In the vertical gutter holder 3 that has completed the work of fixing the receiving member 31 and the base member 32 as described above, an external force is input to the vertical gutter 1 in a direction in which the external force is released from the vertical gutter holder 3. If this happens, it is prevented by the elastic force of the side pieces 31a, 32a.

As described above, in this embodiment, the work of pushing the vertical gutter 1 between the both side pieces 31a and 32a while receiving the resistance due to these elastic forces is eliminated, which is excellent in workability. In addition, it is easy to insert the gutter 1 between the both side pieces 31a, 32a in this way, but when the attachment is completed, sufficient holding performance is obtained based on the elastic force of the both side pieces 31a, 32a. can get.

Moreover, since the receiving member 31 and the base member 32 forming the vertical gutter holding device 3 move relative to each other and the distance between the both side pieces 31a and 32a is variable, a plurality of types of vertical gutters 1 having different width dimensions are provided. In addition, in fixing the receiving member 31 and the base member 32, which can move relative to each other, only by bending the vertical gutter 1 and the projecting piece 31e shown from the side surface of the side piece 32a. However, the work from the front side of the vertical gutter 1 is sufficient, and the work of turning the screw in the narrow space between the vertical gutter 1 and the outer wall 4 is not required, and the workability is excellent.

The embodiment of the present invention has been described above with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and the present invention is applicable even if there are design changes within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention. Included in the device.

For example, in the embodiment, as a means for slidably holding the receiving member 31 and the bottom plates 31b, 32b of the base member 32, which form the gutter holding device, in a stacked state, the projection piece 31d and the engaging piece. Although the means for inserting 31e through the slits 32f and 32g to engage at two points is shown, the invention is not limited to this. For example, instead of the engaging piece 31e and the slit 32g, the bottom plate 31b and the bottom plate 32b may be used. Other means may be used, such as an engagement structure with a rail on one side and a groove on the other side to engage this rail.

[0029]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the vertical gutter holder of the present invention is composed of two members, a base member and a slide member, and the first and second connecting pieces are held in a state in which both connecting pieces are stacked. The second connecting piece of the slide member is formed at the base end portion of the side piece of the base member while being engageable with each other and slidable in a direction in which the distance between the both side pieces is changed. Since the projection is inserted outward from the hole, when inserting the gutter between both side pieces, widen the space between both side pieces and receive the resistance with the elastic force of the side pieces. Can be obtained, and good workability can be obtained, and the elastic force of both side pieces can be improved when the slide member is slid with respect to the base member and the vertical gutter is sandwiched between the both side pieces. Based on the above, sufficient retention performance can be obtained, that is, vertical gutter retention. It is possible to achieve both workability and. Then, when fixing the slide member to the base member, it suffices to bend the protruding piece inserted outward from the hole formed in the base member so that it does not come out of the hole, and between the vertical gutter and the building. It does not require detailed work such as work in a narrow space or tightening screws, and the effect is that the work is extremely easy.
