DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a handrail installed in a toilet or the like of an existing house, and more particularly to a handrail apparatus having high mounting strength and safety.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a handrail is attached to a toilet or the like of an existing house, a wall to which the handrail is attached is generally a gypsum board or the like, and it is necessary to separately provide a base for attaching the handrail. However, to break the wall and install a base having sufficient strength inside the wall requires a construction period and high cost. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, there is a handrail provided with a base plate 101 serving as a pedestal for fixing by using an existing pillar H2 inside the wall. Also, there is a method in which the base plate 101 and the handrail are not integrated, and the base plate 101 is installed on a part or the entire width of the wall surface W1 where the handrail is installed using the pillar H2 installed inside the wall, and a commercially available handrail is attached thereto. is there.

[0003]

In the case of the handrail 100 according to the prior art, it is necessary to fix the handrail to the pillar H2. Therefore, the installation position is limited by the position of the pillar H2, and the handrail 100 is not necessarily installed in a range where the handrail 100 is used. There is a problem that can not be. Moreover, since the mounting strength is only screwing to the column H2, if there is a construction failure when mounting to the column H2, or if the column H2 does not have sufficient strength due to aging or the like, it is immediately remarkably mounted. There is a risk that the strength may be reduced and the rail may fall off due to the load applied to the handrail. In addition, in order to use a handrail, a sufficient space that does not hinder the gripping operation is required around the bar member 102. Therefore, the positional relationship between the base plate 101 and the bar member 102 needs to be a distance that does not hinder the gripping operation. is there. Therefore, the handrail 100 may be protruded forward due to the thickness of the base plate 101, which may obstruct the use of the toilet. Furthermore, articles such as cigarettes are already installed in the toilet room of an existing house, but these articles may interfere with the installation position of the handrail. In that case, it is necessary to place the article in a different position, but it may not always be a suitable place to use the article,
If the wall at that location does not have the necessary strength for mounting, it will not be possible to place the article. On the other hand, if the base plate 101 is installed over the entire width of the wall surface by a method that does not integrate the handrail with the base plate 101, the column H2
Although the installation position is not limited by the position, if the length of the base plate 101 and the width of the wall surface are not sufficiently matched, a new problem that a gap occurs at both ends of the base plate 101 arises.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a handrail in an area where a handrail is desired without requiring a special base in a wall. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a handrail device which has a safe structure in which a handrail does not immediately fall off even if there is a poor construction, and does not hinder even a small toilet room.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a first aspect of the present invention comprises a base plate fixed to a wall, a rod member, and a base plate holder for holding both ends of the base plate. The fitting is provided with an insertion portion for inserting and supporting the rod member, and the base plate and the rod member are cut into a predetermined size determined by the width dimension of the wall surface and used, so that the base plate and the rod member are cut along one side of the indoor wall portion. It is possible to install handrails over the entire width.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the base plate holder is provided with a guide portion for restricting screwing toward the corner of the interior wall, and the round bar member is connected to the base plate via the base plate holder. By being screwed to both of the pillars in the wall, even if one of them is in an improper construction state, it does not immediately fall off due to the weight applied to the handrail.

In the third aspect, since the insertion portion is provided above the upper end of the base plate, the bar member is positioned above the base plate, so that the protrusion from the wall surface is increased by the thickness of the base plate. Without
A space necessary for the operation of grasping the bar member can be secured around the bar member, and the toilet space is not reduced. Furthermore, since the bar member is not located in front of the base plate, an article such as a cigarette can be mounted on the base plate.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the base plate holder has a concave portion for sandwiching the base plate, so that the length of the base plate does not sufficiently match a predetermined size determined by the width of the wall surface. It is possible to install a handrail without gaps over the entire width of the wall. Further, since the base plate is sandwiched between the base plate holders fixed to the pillars, even if the base plate is not fixed to the wall surface, the base plate does not immediately fall off due to the load applied to the handrail.

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The handrail of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the embodiment shown in FIGS. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the configuration of the handrail of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a detailed view showing a configuration for mounting a handrail according to the present invention. FIG. 3 is a detailed view of the base plate holder of the handrail device of the present invention.

The handrail 1 includes a base plate 2, a bar 3, and a base plate holder 4 for holding both ends of the base plate 2. The base plate holder 4 includes a concave portion 41 for holding the base plate 2, an insertion portion 42 for inserting and supporting the rod member 3,
A guide portion 43 for restricting screwing toward the corner C of the interior wall portion is provided. Further, the insertion portion 42 is provided above the upper end of the base plate 2.

The base plate 2 and the bar member 3 are made of wood, and are cut into a predetermined size determined by the width of the wall surface W1 on which the handrail is installed. The base plate 2 is in contact with a wall surface W1 and is screwed to a pillar H2 installed in the wall with a screw N1. The base plate holder 4 is screwed to the base plate 2 by screws N2 and to the column H1 through a guide portion 43 toward the corner C formed by the wall surfaces W1 and W2 by screws N3. Both ends of the rod member 3 are attached to the insertion portion 42, and both ends are fixed to the base plate holder 4 with screws N 5. Here, when the rod member 3 is long, an intermediate portion of the rod member 3 may be fixed to an intermediate support 5 installed on the base plate 2. Further, the cut surfaces of the base plate 2 and the rod member 3 are concealed by the concave portion 41 and the mounting portion 42 of the base plate holder 4.

[0012]

According to the present invention, the following effects are exhibited by the above configuration. According to the handrail according to the first aspect of the present invention, the bar member is installed over the entire width of the wall surface to which the handrail is attached, and the handrail is always installed in a range where the handrail is used. In addition, since the base plate can be fixed to all of the columns inside the wall surface, high mounting strength can be obtained.

According to the handrail according to the second aspect of the present invention, in the case of the first aspect of the present invention, the base plate holder is fixed to the pillar diagonally toward the entry corner by a screw. The applied load is not applied in the screw pull-out direction, and the risk of falling off even with a large load is reduced.

According to the handrail according to the invention of claim 3 of the present invention, in the case of the invention of claim 1 or 2, the bar member gripped by the user is located above the upper end of the base plate, and Since the space required for the gripping operation is the distance between the wall surface and the rod member, the above-mentioned dimension does not increase due to the thickness of the base plate, and does not hinder the use of the toilet. Further, since there is no bar member in front of the base plate, it is possible to attach an article such as a paper wrapper on the base plate.

According to the handrail according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, in the case of the first, second or third aspect of the present invention, the base plate is sandwiched in the concave portion of the base plate holder, so that the base plate and the wall surface are separated. Even if the predetermined dimension determined by the width dimension does not sufficiently match, it can be installed without a gap over the entire width of the wall surface. Further, since the base plate holder is screwed to the pillar, even if the base plate is not sufficiently fixed, the risk of falling off due to the load applied to the handrail is reduced.
