Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve problems in an eaves gutter wherein a hole saw blade is damaged by concrete serving as a gutter pedestal by piercing a gutter floor plate for boring from the inside of the eaves gutter, laborious work is required for forming a circular hole by boring the floor plate with double flooring or a stepped cut part, and the hole saw position is deviated when the gutter floor plate is completely flat. SOLUTION: This eaves gutter formed into a U-shape in the vertical cross section as a whole is provided with an exterior side wall plate 1, an interior side wall plate 2, and a bottom plate 3 connecting the bottom sides of them to each other. In the bottom plate 3, a projection part 4 projecting to the inside of the gutter is arranged along the longitudinal direction, while a flat part 5 is arranged at the top of the projection part 4. The eaves gutter width directional length of the flat part 5 is longer than a mounting ring width of a drain serving as a connection member to a downspout and is not more than 75% of the width directional length of the bottom plate 3.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an eaves gutter, and more particularly to a hole saw used for connecting a drain connected to a downspout gutter. It relates to eaves gutters with reduced position variations.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a drain, which is a connector, is connected to an eave gutter in order to drain rainwater inside the eave gutter. This drain is attached to the periphery of a circular hole formed by a hole saw.

Here, when the drain is attached to the eaves gutter, it is preferable to make a hole at the center in the width direction of the bottom plate of the eaves gutter, but the positioning to the center depends on the skill of the operator. In order to eliminate this difference in skill, a technique for marking a bottom plate of an eaves gutter is disclosed (for example, Utility Model Registration No. 2558750).

[0004]

However, there is a problem that when the blade is opened from the inside of the eaves gutter by a hole saw, if the blade penetrates the floor plate of the eaves gutter, it is damaged by concrete or the like which has become the pedestal of the eaves gutter. . Also, as in the above publication,
If the floorboard is doubled or there is a step at the cut site, there is a problem that it takes time to open a circular hole. Further, there is a problem that the position of the hole saw varies when the floor plate of the eave gutter is flat.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to reduce damage to a hole saw used when connecting a drain connected to a downspout, eliminate wasteful work of drain installation, and reduce variations in drain installation positions. To provide gutters.

[0006]

The inventor of the present invention has made intensive studies in view of the above, and as a result, has found that an outdoor side wall plate, an indoor side wall plate,
With a bottom plate connecting these bottom sides together, in an eaves gutter formed in a U-shaped vertical cross section as a whole, the bottom plate is provided with a protruding portion projecting inward of the eaves gutter along a longitudinal direction,
A flat portion is provided on the top of the protruding portion, and the length of the flat portion in the width direction of the eaves gutter is greater than the width of the mounting ring of the drain as a connecting member to the downspout, and the length in the width direction of the bottom plate. It was found that the above problem could be solved by 75% or less, and the present invention was completed.

[0007]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the eaves gutter of the present invention, the bottom plate is provided with a protruding portion protruding inside the eaves gutter along a longitudinal direction, and a flat portion is provided on the top of the protruding portion. The reason is that a hole for drain attachment is formed in a flat portion of the protruding portion with a hole saw so that even if the hole saw penetrates from the inside of the eaves gutter to the outside, damage to the blade of the hole saw is reduced.

The reason why the length of the flat portion in the eaves gutter width direction is set to be larger than the width of the mounting ring of the drain, which is a connecting member to the downspout, is that if the flat portion is shorter than the width of the mounting ring of the drain, the hole saw can be used. Is time consuming. If the length of the flat portion in the auxiliary field direction is too large, the flat portion is distorted when pressure is applied from the inside with a hole saw. It is preferable that the maximum length of the bottom plate in the width direction is within 75%, preferably within 66%.

As the material of the eaves gutter and the eaves gutter hanging tool according to the present invention, conventionally known synthetic resins, metals or composites thereof can be adopted. Examples of the synthetic resin include polyvinyl chloride resin, polyethylene resin, polystyrene resin, polypropylene resin, polycarbonate resin, and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer.

In the eaves gutter according to the present invention, the bottom plate is provided with a protruding portion projecting inward of the eaves gutter along a longitudinal direction, and a flat portion is provided on the top of the protruding portion. The length in the eaves gutter width direction is specified, whereby the hole saw used for connecting the drain is less likely to be damaged, and the variation in the mounting position of the drain is reduced.

[0011]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view schematically showing an embodiment of an eaves gutter according to the present invention.

The eaves gutter according to the present embodiment is a gutter gutter made of polyvinyl chloride resin formed in a U-shaped vertical cross section as a whole as shown in FIG. And a bottom plate 3 connecting these bottom sides to each other. Here, the bottom plate 3 is provided with a protruding portion 4 protruding inside the eaves gutter along the longitudinal direction, and a flat portion 5 is provided on the top of the protruding portion 4. The length of the flat portion 5 in the width direction of the eaves gutter is larger than the width of the mounting ring 7 of the drain 6 which is a connecting member to the downspout, and is 65% of the length of the bottom plate 3 in the width direction.

In this embodiment, since the protruding portion 4 provided with the flat portion 5 on the bottom plate 3 is provided, even when a circular hole for mounting the drain 6 is opened with a hole saw, the blade of the hole saw is damaged. It has run out. The length (symbol B) of the flat part 5 in the eaves gutter width direction is a drain 6 which is a connecting member to the downspout.
Of the bottom plate 3 in the width direction (code C) is about 65% (minimum length than the width of the mounting ring 7).
This eliminates unnecessary labor for the installation work and reduces the variation in the installation position of the drain.

[0014]

According to the present invention, there is provided an eaves gutter having an outdoor side wall plate, an indoor side wall plate, and a bottom plate connecting these bottom sides, and having a U-shaped vertical cross section as a whole. Is provided with a protruding portion projecting inward of the eaves gutter along the longitudinal direction, a flat portion is provided on the top of the protruding portion, and the length of the flat portion in the eaves gutter width direction is set to the vertical gutter. It is larger than the mounting ring width of the drain which is the connecting member, and is within 75% of the length in the width direction of the bottom plate, thereby reducing damage to the hole saw used when connecting the drain connected to the downspout. In addition, wasteful work of drain installation work has been eliminated, and variations in drain installation positions have been reduced.
