It is set up in the longitudinal direction to polymerize.

[0005] A seat 104 which does not penetrate through the elongated hole 112.
Is provided at the lower end, and the lower end of the shaft 10
5 penetrates from below into the elongated hole 112 of the gutter support body 102 and the shaft hole 111 of the mounting rod 101, and one end of a vertically rotating lock lever 103 that rotates in the longitudinal direction is pivotally attached to the upper end of this shaft 105. Structure.

[0006] As shown in the figure, when the vertical rotation lock lever 103 is rotated in the vertical direction, the arc portion of the rotary substrate 103a of the vertical rotation lock lever 103 is rotated in the vertical direction on the upper surface of the mounting rod 101. By doing so, axis 1
05 is raised or lowered.

For this reason, if the vertically rotating lock lever 103 is vertically rotated to one side and the shaft 105 is pulled down,
01 and the gutter support main body 102 can be slid in the range of the elongated hole 112 without being pressed against each other.

After adjusting the slide position of the gutter support main body 102, when the vertically rotating lock lever 103 is vertically rotated toward the other side, the shaft 105 is pulled up and the receiving seat 104 at the lower end of the shaft 105 is also pulled up.

Since the receiving seat 104 does not pass through the elongated hole 112, it is joined to the gutter support main body 102 and lifted upward.

Accordingly, the gutter support main body 102 is pressed and fixed to the mounting rod 101, so that its sliding can be restricted.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a gutter supporting device of a vertical rotation lock type according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is an exploded view of a vertically rotating lock type gutter support according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an assembled view thereof.

The rain gutter support A has a pair of support pieces 12 having guide holes 11 formed on both sides in front of the gutter and extending through the connecting shaft 4 to extend downward and stand up on the front upper side. The mounting rod 1 on which the stopper piece 13 formed is formed, and a gutter ear hooking part 21 of a rain gutter which is fitted and inserted between a pair of support pieces 12 of the mounting rod 1 and is slidable forward and backward. The gutter support body 2 is formed in a substantially U-shape that is open downward, and a shaft hole 32 that penetrates the connecting shaft 4 is opened in a pair of both side pieces 31, and inside the closed upper surface, The mounting rod 1
The vertically rotating lock lever 3 having the stopper piece 13 capable of engaging and disengaging with the stopper piece 13 and the gutter support main body 2 are supported.
And a connecting shaft 4 penetrating the shaft hole 32 of the longitudinal rotation lock lever 3 and the guide hole 11 of the gutter support body 2 from the lateral direction;
Consisting of

The mounting rod 1 is a mounting plate 1 fixed to an eave or the like.
A foot rod 15 extends forward from the center of the upper end of the upper end 4, and a connecting piece 16 is formed at the front end of the foot rod 15.

The connecting piece 16 has a stopper piece 13 formed by cutting and raising the center of the upper surface. On both sides of the connecting piece 16, a pair of support pieces 12 extend downward. Has been established.

The gutter support main body 2 forms a downwardly open slide main body 22 having a U-shaped cross section which is inserted between a pair of support pieces 12 of the mounting rod 1. It is possible to slide later, and at the front and rear ends of this slide body 22,
A gutter ear hook 21 for hooking the ear of the rain gutter T is formed.

The shapes of the mounting rod 1 and the gutter support body 2 are appropriately selected according to the mounting location and the shape of the rain gutter T, and are not limited thereto.

The longitudinal rotation lock lever 3 is formed in a substantially U-shape opened downward, and a pair of both side pieces 31 are attached so as to straddle the support piece 12 of the attachment rod 1 from above.

A shaft hole 32 penetrating through the connecting shaft 4 is formed in each of the two side portions 31, and this shaft hole 32 overlaps with the guide hole 11 of the support piece 12.

Further, both side pieces 31 are formed to be at least lower than the support piece 12 of the mounting rod 1, so that when the shaft 31 rotates vertically about the shaft hole 32 as a center of rotation,
This can be operated by holding the lower end sides of both side pieces 31.

The closed upper surface of the vertically rotating lock lever 3 can be vertically rotated by holding it.
On the inner side of the upper surface, a locking portion 33 that can be engaged and disengaged from the stopper piece 13 of the mounting rod 1 is formed.

Here, the closed upper surface is bent as shown in the figure to form a protruding portion inside the upper surface. In short, the upper surface is formed so as to be able to engage and disengage with the stopper piece 13 of the mounting rod 1. Is enough.

The position of the shaft hole 32 is such that when the connecting shaft 4 is positioned at the upper end of the guide hole 11, the locking portion 33 rides on the stopper piece 13 of the mounting rod 1 and is engaged therewith. 11 is located at the lower end of
3 is formed at a position where it is detached from the stopper piece 13 of the mounting rod 1.

As shown in the drawing, a guide hole of the mounting rod 1 is inserted by inserting a shaft 42 of a connecting shaft 4 such as a rivet from one side of the shaft hole 32 of the longitudinally rotating lock lever 3 formed as described above. 11 and further penetrate the guide hole 11 of the mounting rod 1 and the shaft hole 32 of the longitudinal rotation lock lever 3 that face each other while supporting the lower surface of the gutter support main body 2, and then the leading end thereof is processed to prevent it from falling off. These are interconnected.

According to the present invention, since the connecting shaft 4 is a novel structure in which the connecting shaft 4 is penetrated from the lateral direction, the connecting shaft 4 is different from the conventional structure in which the connecting shaft 4 moves up and down. Since the gutter support body 2 is supported by the entirety of the connecting shaft 4 while functioning as a rotation center axis, it is possible to avoid applying a local load to one end of the connecting shaft 4 and the gutter support body 2 is dropped. The danger of doing so can be prevented.

Further, since the gutter support main body 2 is supported by the connecting shaft 4, the gutter support main body 2 can be formed without forming an elongated hole.
Since this can be slid, the strength of the gutter support body 2 can be increased.

Further, since the rotation center position of the vertically rotating lock lever 3 is located lower than the conventional one, the locus of the circumference when the vertically rotating lock lever 3 is vertically rotated can be made smaller above the mounting rod 1. Even if there is an eaves roof or the like located above the mounting rod 1, the operation from above the vertically rotating lock lever 3 can be easily performed.

However, even if the roof of the eaves is close to the vertical rotation lock lever 3 and cannot be operated from above, the locking and unlocking of the vertical rotation lock lever 3 can be performed by the rain gutter support. It can be operated from below the tool A.

In addition, in order to reduce the load applied to the connecting shaft 4, separately from the connecting shaft 4, a pair of supporting pieces 12 of the mounting rod 1 are used to support the gutter supporting body 2. (Not shown) can be separately provided.

If such a supporting rod (not shown) is separately formed, the load on the connecting shaft 4 can be reduced and dispersed, and the gutter support main body 2 can be more reliably supported.
