[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In recent years, the eaves gutter support structure is such that the eaves gutter suspends over the inside of the opening of the eaves gutter so that the eaves gutter suspension is not visible from the outside. For this reason, in the structure in which both ends of the eaves gutter are engaged with both ears of the eaves gutter, there is a problem that the eaves gutter hanger cannot be attached due to the presence of the eaves gutter. Further, in a structure in which one end is fixed to a wall surface of a house or the like with a nail or the like, since one end is supported, there is a possibility that a heavy object such as snow may fall off when it falls.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides an eaves gutter cover that can be easily attached to an opening of an eaves gutter, does not easily come off, and has increased strength.

[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention covers an opening of an eaves gutter and has an indoor locking portion at an indoor end of a covering surface portion having a water passage hole, and an outdoor locking portion at an outdoor end. The indoor side engaging portion is engaged with the indoor side engaging portion formed at the tip of the eaves drain, and the outdoor side engaging portion is engaged with the outdoor side engaging portion formed at the tip of the eave gutter hanging device. The eaves gutter cover is combined.
In this way, if the indoor side engaging portion is easily engaged with the indoor side engaging portion and the outdoor side engaging portion is easily engaged with the outdoor side engaging portion, the opening of the eave gutter can be easily covered. The eaves gutter cover is strong because it is hard to come off because both ends are engaged.
[0007]
The above-mentioned indoor locking part is provided at the tip of the rising inclined surface, the outdoor locking part is provided at the tip of the downward bent surface, and both locking parts are formed as folded ends, and the middle of the covering surface part The part is preferably formed as an upper bulging surface.
As a result, the above function can be further enhanced, and the upper bulging surface at the intermediate portion of the covering surface further increases the load strength and provides flexibility in the width direction of the eaves gutter cover, so that the engagement operability can be further enhanced.
