  DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to the drawings, a receiving device latch 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below. FIGS. 1 and 2 show the receiving device 1 using the receiving device latch 10 of the present invention. In the illustrated and illustrated form, the receiving device 1 is shown as forming a shelf S.

  The pair of latching bodies 10 are fixed to a wall W of an appropriate container such as a book box by screws T, and the shelf plate SP is latched in the latching holes 12 of the pair of latching bodies 10. Then, a pair of receiving fixtures (shelf receptacles in the illustrated example) 20 that are respectively attached are straddled and placed thereon.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the latching body 10 is composed of a metal strip 10S having a U-shaped cross section, and the latching holes 12 are provided at a predetermined interval in the vertical direction to the metal strip 10S. Screw through holes 14 penetrating the screws T are provided at both upper and lower ends of the metal strip 10S. In FIG. 4, reference numeral 10SE indicates side edges on both sides of the metal strip 10S.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the receiving device 20 has a horizontal piece 22 and a vertical piece 24, and has a width smaller than the width of the horizontal piece 22 and the vertical piece 24 at the rear end of the horizontal piece 22 and the lower end of the vertical piece 24. The hook-shaped latching claws 22P and 24P have a substantially L-shape. In the illustrated example, the horizontal piece 22, the vertical piece 24, and the hook-shaped hooking claws 22 </ b> P and 24 </ b> P are formed by bending a metal strip, and the horizontal piece 22 is formed to have a high strength by being folded twice. Has been.

  As can be seen from FIGS. 5 and 6, the hooked pawls 22 </ b> P and 24 </ b> P are provided so as to be located behind the rear end surface of the horizontal piece 22 and the rear face of the vertical piece 24. When the catching pawls 22P and 24P are engaged with the latching holes 12 of the latching body 10, the vertical piece 24 is engaged with the front surface of the latching body 10, and the catching tool 20 is stably attached to the latching body 10. It is attached. As can be seen from FIG. 6, the hook-like latching claws 22 </ b> P and 24 </ b> P have a height slightly smaller than the height of the latching hole 12 to the extent that it can be engaged with the latching hole 12 of the latching body 10.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, first, the pair of catching tools 20 is inserted into the latching holes 12 at predetermined height positions of the latching body 10 (see FIG. 6). 6), then, the hook-shaped latching claws 22P, 24P are lowered along the latching hole 12. In this way, as shown in FIG. 7C, the base 22PR of the latching pawl 22P contacts the lower wall surface of the corresponding latching hole 12, and the catching tool 20 is attached to the latching body 10 in a stable state. It is done.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the shelf S is formed by supporting the shelf board SP across the pair of receiving fixtures 20. For example, when the shelf S is a bookshelf, both sides have side walls (not shown), and therefore the shelf board SP is restrained by the both side walls of the bookcase, so there is no need to fix the shelf board SP, but the shelf board SP. When both sides are open, it is preferable to fix the shelf plate SP to the catch 20 by an appropriate means.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the latching hole 12 of the latching body 10 has a pair of stoppers 12S1 and 12S2 extending in directions approaching each other from the opposing vertical wall surfaces, and this pair of stoppers. 12S1 and 12S2 have an interval d that allows the latching claws 22P and 24P to pass in the vertical direction (see FIG. 6A).

  1 to 4 and FIGS. 6 to 9, the pair of stoppers 12S1 and 12S2 are shown to have a substantially chevron shape, but as shown in FIG. 15, a substantially rectangular form (FIG. 15). (Refer to (A) and (B)) or a substantially L-shaped step (see FIG. 15C).

  Thus, when the latching hole 12 of the latching body 10 has a pair of stoppers 12S1, 12S2, the latching claws 22P, 24P of the catching tool 20 are engaged with the latching hole 12 of the latching body 10. Even when the receiving device 20 that receives the shelf plate SP receives a force from below in a state where the receiving device 20 that receives the shelf plate SP is in stable contact with the left and right vertical wall surfaces, the retaining claws 22P and 24P are provided. Is prevented from coming off by the pair of left and right stoppers 12S1, 12S2 of the latching hole 12, so that the catching tool 20 does not fall off the latching body 10. The vertical lengths of the hook-shaped latching claws 22P and 24P are set to be larger than the length from the bottom surface of the latching hole 12 to the stoppers 12S1 and 12S2.

  More specifically, in the state in which the catching tool 20 is latched in the latching hole 12, the latching claws 22P, 24P are positioned below the pair of stoppers 12S1, 12S2 of the corresponding latching hole 12. However, at this position, the latching claws 22P and 24P are latched with a sufficient space in the width direction of the latching hole 12, and the latching claws 22P and 24P are paired with each other. It is rare that it is centered at the interval between the stoppers 12S1, 12S2, and the latching claws 22P, 24P are usually biased to the right or left side of the centering position. In this state, even if the catching tool 20 receives a force from below, the latching claws 22P and 24P are left on the left stopper 12S1 (see FIG. 9A) or the right stopper 12S2 (see FIG. 9B). Because of the abutment, the latching claws 22P and 24P do not go through between the stoppers 12S1 and 12S2, and the catching tool 20 does not fall off.

  In the above embodiment, the pair of left and right stoppers 12S1, 12S2 are formed at the same height position, but as shown in FIG. 15A, the left and right stoppers 12S1, 12S2 are arranged in the vertical direction. In this case, the catching claws 22P and 24P are similarly prevented from being lifted by any of the stoppers 12S1 and 12S2, and the catching tool 20 is dropped off. Can be prevented. 15C, it is somewhat difficult to insert the latching claws 22P and 24P into the latching hole 12. However, it is possible to effectively prevent the catching tool 20 from coming off from the stable support state. This is the same as the embodiment.

  Another embodiment of the latching body 10 is shown in FIG. 10, in which the latching body 10 is not fixed to the wall W with screws as in the previous embodiment. The metal strip 10S of the latching body 10 includes a pair of elastic insertion pieces 10SS slightly inside the both edges, and these insertion pieces 10SS have a rough surface 10SR on the outer surface thereof (see FIG. 10B). ). As shown in FIG. 10A, the latching body 10 of this form is fixed to the wall W by elastically inserting a pair of insertion pieces 10SS into the concave strip WR of the wall W. The insertion hole 12 of the latching body 10 also has a pair of stoppers 12S1 and 12S2 as in the previous embodiment.

  Another embodiment of the receiving device 20 used in the receiving device 1 of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, and the receiving device 20 of this embodiment includes a cover 26 that is detachably covered on the horizontal piece 22. In this cover 26, as shown in FIG. 13, the upper wall 26U and the lower wall 26L have different thicknesses. In the form of FIG. 13, as shown in FIG. 13G, the thickness T26U of the upper wall 26U is set to be significantly larger than the thickness T26L of the lower wall 26L, but the difference is arbitrarily set. be able to.

  If the thicknesses of the upper and lower walls 26U and 26L of the cover 26 are thus different, as shown in FIGS. 14 (B) and 14 (C), on the catching tool 20 latched in the latching hole 12 at the same height position. It is possible to adjust the height of the shelf plate SP that is supported by being placed thereon. FIG. 14A shows the height of the shelf board SP when the cover 26 is not used. When the cover 26 is covered downward as shown in FIG. 14B, the case shown in FIG. The shelf plate SP is higher, and when the cover 26 is placed upward as shown in FIG. 10C, the shelf plate SP is higher than in the case shown in FIG. I understand.

  In the cover 26 of the receiving tool 20 in FIGS. 11 and 12, this large thickness portion on the wall 26U side having a large thickness is formed by a semi-cylindrical convex portion 26PR. As described above, the cover 26 having such a structure can be adjusted to the height of the shelf board SP by selecting one of the upper and lower sides, as shown in FIG. Even if the plate SP is turned upside down, the same height is maintained, but the shelf plate SP placed on the shelf 26PR is provided with a recess SPR that complements the projection 26PR to receive the shelf plate SP. The position can be held on the tool 20. The cover 26 has a portion 26SE extending so as to protrude from the tips of the upper and lower walls 26U, 26L at the tips of both side walls 26S. The extension portion 26SE is formed between the horizontal piece 22 and the vertical piece 24. Covers the connecting part.

  The provider and the user of the receiving device 1 can appropriately select whether the cover 26 having the convex portion 26PR is used for height adjustment or for holding the position of the shelf board SP.

  Although not shown, the large thickness portion of the cover 26 is not the convex portion 26PR as described above, but can be formed by increasing the thickness of the entire upper wall 26U or a part of the upper wall 26U. It is.

  FIG. 15 shows another embodiment of the present invention in which the latching hole 12 having a pair of stoppers 12A1 and 12S2 is further modified. In this embodiment, the latching hole 12 is formed in a substantially triangular shape. Both inclined surfaces of the stop hole 12 are used as a pair of stoppers 12S1 and 12S2. The hook-like latching claws 22P and 24P of the catching tool 20 are inserted into the central portion of the substantially triangular latching hole 12, and are lowered downward and latched on the bottom. In this latched state, the latching claws 22P, 24P are slightly displaced in the horizontal direction from the center of the latching hole 12, as described above, so that even if an upward force is applied to the catching tool 20, two tilts are applied. It can abut against any one inclined surface (stopper) of the surfaces (stopper) and prevent the receiving tool 20 from falling off.

  As long as the catch used in the present invention can hold an object, the shape of the horizontal piece can be arbitrarily changed, and has a catching claw having the same width as the vertical piece. Also good. Moreover, if the stability at the time of attachment can be ensured, the number of hook-shaped latching claws may be one.

  The latching body 10 and the catching tool 20 can both be made of metal, but can also be made of plastic, and the main body of the catching tool 20 can be made of metal and the cover can be made of plastic.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the latching body 10 has a columnar shape, but, for example, like a cabinet wall provided with a latching hole so that the catch 20 can be directly attached to the wall of the cabinet. It may be the wall itself. The member supported on the catching tool 20 is the shelf board SP. However, for example, it can be a receiving tray such as a tray of various home appliance cooking products and other appropriate object mounting / accommodating members.

  According to the present invention, the latching hole of the latching body on which the catcher is to be latched has the pair of stoppers extending in the directions approaching each other from the opposing vertical wall surfaces. Since it is usually biased in the left or right direction in the latching hole, the latching claw does not come off from the latching hole of the latching body, thus effectively preventing the stopper from falling off. In addition, this drop-off prevention effect can be achieved without increasing the number of parts and work processes, and the present invention has high industrial applicability.
