e is located inside the guide hole 8, that is, in the supporting leg holding member 5 so as to substantially cross the guide hole 8 from the upper side to the lower side, that is, at a portion where the locking pin 6 passes. Further, the tip of the third step 10e, that is, the fourth step 10f is located below the guide hole 8.

When the support leg 4 is to be erected from the lying state of the support leg 4, the support leg 4 is rotated about the first support shaft 3 in the arrow Y direction in FIG. The rotation of the support leg 4 moves the locking pin 6 to the lower left in FIG. By this movement, the locking pin 6 slides in the guide hole 8 of the support leg holding member 5 and the support leg holding member 5 is rotated about the second support shaft 7 in the Z direction of FIG. Then, when the locking pin 6 is positioned in the bent portion 8c of the guide hole 8, the head portion 6b of the locking pin 6 hits the third step portion 10e of the spring material 10 and pushes the engaging spring portion 10b outward. At the same time, the guide portion including the third step portion 10e guides the locking pin 6 in the direction of the engaging hole 8a.

When the support leg 4 is further rotated in the upright direction, the support leg holding member 5 is pushed down around the second support shaft 7 by the spring force (returning force) of the second step portion 10d of the engagement spring portion 10b. The locking pin 6 is forcibly pushed into the locking hole 8a side. Then, when the support leg 4 is in the standing state shown in FIG. 2, the locking pin 6 is fitted into the locking hole 8a as shown in FIG. The step portion 10d comes into contact with the locking pin 6 and the locking spring portion 1
It is held elastically at 0b.

When the locking pin 6 is fitted in the locking hole 8a in this way, when a force is applied to the support leg 4 in the fall direction (direction of arrow X in FIG. 2), the locking pin 6 is engaged. Stop hole 8a
In contact with the inner side surface 8b of the support leg 4, the fall of the support leg 4 is suppressed, and the upright state of the support leg 4 is maintained.

Therefore, when the fulcrum 4 is erected, the erected state of the fulcrum 4 is automatically locked only by the step of erecting the fulcrum 4.

Next, when the support leg 4 is toppled from the standing state of the support leg 4, the support leg holding member 5 is manually operated in the state of FIG. 2 so that the tip portion 5a thereof is slightly raised. The locking pin 6 is moved to be positioned below the locking hole 8a, that is, in the bent portion 8c, and in this state, the support leg 4 is rotated about the first support shaft 3 in the arrow X direction in FIG. As a result, the locking pin 6 of the support leg 4 slides in the guide hole 8 of the support leg holding member 5, and the support leg 4 and the support leg holding member 5 lie down and are folded as shown in FIG.

In the above embodiment, the spring material 10 is formed of a coil spring made of a wire material, but the spring material 10 may be formed of a leaf spring instead of the wire material.

Next, the folded state locking mechanism for holding the folded (falling) state of the supporting leg will be described.

The outer wall 5b of the supporting leg holding member 5 is shown in FIG.
Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a locking hole 20 which is a locking portion is formed so as to penetrate therethrough. The engagement hole 20 is formed in the middle of the guide hole 8 and the second support shaft 7 in the illustrated embodiment.

A locking member 21 is provided with a screw 22 on the supporting leg 4.
It is fixed by. As shown in FIG. 3, the locking member 21 is formed by bending a piece 21a on the inner side surface 4a of the support leg 4, that is, on the surface facing the support leg holding member 5, and the support leg holding member 5 is formed on the piece 21a. The engaging projection 21 is provided on the surface facing
b is integrally formed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the thickness D of the piece 21a.
1 is formed to have a thickness that fits in a gap D2 between the inner side surface 4a of the support leg 4 and the support leg holding member 5.
The thickness (protruding amount) D3 from the inner side surface 4a to the tip of the engaging projection 21b is set to be larger than the gap D2.

Further, the attachment position of the engaging member 21, that is, the engaging protrusion 21b to the supporting leg 4 is such that when the supporting leg 4 is folded as shown in FIG. It is set at a position matching the locking hole 20 formed in the member 5. Further, the engagement protrusion 21b is formed in a shape that fits into the locking hole 20.

Further, when at least the engaging projection 21b of the engaging member 21 can be reduced to the gap D2 and at least the engaging projection 21b is fitted into the engaging hole 20 as shown in FIG. It is formed of an elastic material having elasticity that can swell and maintain its folded state.

In the above structure, when the support leg 4 is tilted in the X direction from the standing state of FIG. 2, when the piece 21a of the engagement member 21 and the engagement protrusion 21b pass through the gap D2 between the support leg 4 and the support leg holding member 5. The engaging projection 21b is compressed by. And the supporting leg 4
8 is folded as shown in FIG. 8 so that the engaging projection 21b is aligned with the locking hole 20, the engaging projection 21b is restored and fitted into the locking hole 20 as the locking portion as shown in FIG. Lock.
In such a fitted and locked state, the supporting leg 4 is subjected to a turning force in the standing direction (Y direction) by its own weight, and the supporting leg holding member 5 is moved in the standing direction (Z direction) by its own weight. Even if the turning force of the above is applied, since the rotating directions of these are opposite to each other, the engaging protrusion 21b and the engaging hole 2
Due to the fitting force with 0, rotation of the support leg 4 and the support leg holding member 5 in the standing direction, that is, the opening direction is suppressed, and the folded state of the support leg 4 is held, that is, locked.

Therefore, by folding the supporting leg 4, the folded state is automatically locked.

When the supporting leg 4 is to be erected from this locked state, the supporting leg 4 is manually erected against the fitting force between the engaging projection 21b and the locking hole 20.

9 to 12 show a second embodiment of the present invention.

The second embodiment shows another embodiment of the lock mechanism for holding the upright state of the support leg and the folded state lock mechanism for holding the folded state of the support leg.

In the mechanism for locking the standing state of the supporting leg, the supporting member 5 in the first embodiment is replaced by the supporting member holding member 5 in the first embodiment instead of the spring material 10, the first rivet 9 and the second rivet 11 in the first embodiment. The urging means 10A that constantly urges downwardly from the top plate 1 in the direction in which it rises and rotates about the two support shafts 7, that is, is provided. Specifically, a coil spring is installed between the supporting leg holding member 5 and the top plate 1 by compression. The biasing means 10A is formed of a coil spring in the embodiment, but may be a leaf spring.

Further, in the mechanism for locking the folded state of the supporting leg, a claw-shaped locking member is provided on the supporting leg 4 instead of the locking hole 20 and the locking member 21 of the first embodiment, and At the time of folding, the locking member is locked to the locking portion fixed to the top plate 1 side so that the supporting state of the supporting leg 4 is maintained.

That is, as shown in FIG. 10, in the gap between the frame fitting 2 and the support leg holding member 5, a frame collar 31 is arranged on the outer periphery of the second support shaft 7, and the frame collar 31 is mounted on the top plate. It is fixed to the frame fitting 2 fixed to 1.
On the rear surface of the frame collar 31, as shown in FIG. 12, a locking groove 31a which is a locking portion is formed.

In this folded state, the locking claw 32b of the locking member 32 provided on the support leg 4 is fitted and locked in the locking groove 31a of the frame collar 31 fixed to the top plate 1 side, and The folded state is retained.

When the supporting leg 4 is erected from this folded state, the supporting leg holding member 5 is also erected similarly to the first embodiment. At this time, the urging force of the urging means 10A applies a turning force to the supporting leg holding member 5 in the upright direction.

Then, when the support leg 4 comes close to the standing state,
Since the supporting leg holding member 5 is forcibly urged downward by the urging force of the urging means 10A, the locking pin 6 passes through the bent portion 8c of the guide hole 8 and is locked in the locking hole 8a. The supporting leg holding member 5 is rotated so that the fitting is inserted.

Then, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, when the support leg 4 is erected, the locking pin 6 is engaged with the locking hole 8a to prevent the support leg 4 from falling down as in the first embodiment. Is
The standing state of the support leg 4 is locked.

From the standing state of the support leg 4 described above, the support leg 4 is
In the case of lying down, the supporting leg 4 is folded as in the first embodiment.

At the time of folding, the locking claw 3
2b is snap-fitted into the locking groove 31a so that the folded state is automatically locked.

Therefore, also in the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the erected state of the supporting leg 4 is automatically locked only by the operation of raising the supporting leg 4, and the operation of simply folding the supporting leg 4 is performed. The folding state of the supporting leg 4 is automatically locked only by this.

FIG. 13 shows a third embodiment of the present invention.

In the third embodiment, instead of the biasing means 10A composed of the coil spring in the second embodiment, a biasing means 10B composed of a torsion spring is wound around the outer circumference of the second support shaft 7, The urging force constantly urges the support leg holding member 5 in a direction in which the support leg holding member 5 is erected and rotated about the second support shaft 7. That is, one end 10h of the torsion spring forming the urging means 10B is locked to the lower surface of the top plate 1 and the other end 10i is locked to the upper surface of the supporting leg holding member 5, so that the supporting leg holding member 5 is always moved downward. I am biased.

Further, as the mechanism for locking the folded state of the support leg 4, the same mechanism as that of the first embodiment is adopted.

Since the other structure is the same as that of the second embodiment, the same members and parts as those described above are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted.

Also in the third embodiment, the upright state of the supporting leg 4 can be automatically locked by the same action as in the second embodiment, and the supporting state of the supporting leg 4 can be maintained in the folded state as in the first embodiment. It can be locked automatically by the same action.

In the first embodiment, instead of the locking hole 20 and the locking member 21, the frame collar 31 with the locking groove and the locking member 32 in the second embodiment may be used. Further, in the second embodiment, instead of the locking grooved frame collar 31 and the locking member 32, the locking hole 20 and the locking member 21 in the first embodiment may be used. Further, in the third embodiment, instead of the locking hole 20 and the locking member 21, the locking grooved frame collar 31 and the locking member 32 in the second embodiment may be used.
