  When fixing the pipe support fitting and the fixture as described above to the building, the fixture is first fixed to the wall or the like of the building. On the other hand, the bolt and nut of the pipe support fitting are removed, and the pipe is passed through the circular band part. In this state, the fastening portion of the pipe support fitting is applied to the attachment portion of the fixture, and the pipe and the pipe support fixture are fixed to the fixture with bolts and nuts. Thereby, piping is supported by the wall etc. of a building.

  When performing the above operations, it is necessary to once remove the bolts and nuts temporarily attached to the pipe support fitting from the pipe support fitting. And in the state which passed piping through the piping support bracket, it is necessary to take these to the position where the fixture is provided, and to fasten the previous bolt and nut again.

  However, there are many cases where the fixture is installed at a high place, and since there are many operations using a ladder, it is difficult to tighten the nut on the bolt by applying the fastening part of the pipe support bracket to the attachment part of the fixture. become. For this reason, nuts are frequently dropped, and it is necessary to prepare more nuts than necessary.

  An object of the present invention is to facilitate the work of attaching a pipe support fitting to a fixture, and to make it possible to attach a pipe to a building wall or the like without preparing more nuts than necessary.

  According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a fixture for fixing a pipe support bracket to a building wall or the like using at least a pair of bolts and nuts, and includes a base portion and an attachment portion. The base is fixed to the building. The mounting portion is provided so as to protrude from the surface of the base portion, has a long hole through which the bolt can pass along the protruding direction, and has a groove that allows the bolt to pass through the long hole and the outside. .

  When fixing the piping to the building using this fixture, the fixture is first fixed to the wall of the building. Then, the pipe is attached to the pipe support fitting, and in this state, the bolts and nuts of the pipe support fitting are temporarily assembled. Then, the pipe and the pipe support fitting are brought to the position of the fixture, and the bolt is inserted into the groove of the attachment portion through the groove of the fixture while the nut is temporarily assembled to the bolt. Thereafter, the nut is tightened to firmly fix the pipe support fitting and the pipe to the fixture.

  Here, since the mounting part of the fixture is formed with a groove that continues from the outside to the elongated hole, the pipe support bracket is temporarily mounted without removing the nut from the bolt, that is, without temporarily removing the nut from the bolt. Metal fittings and piping can be attached to the fixture. Therefore, the nut does not fall during the installation work, and the work becomes easy and the use of the nut more than necessary can be suppressed.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the fixture according to the first aspect, the groove of the attachment portion is inclined obliquely from the projecting side of the attachment portion toward the base portion.

  Here, since the groove is inclined from the outside (side away from the building) of the fixture attached to the building to the inside, the bolt of the pipe support fitting should be smoothly introduced into the long hole of the fixture. Can do.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the fixture according to the first or second aspect, two bolts for fixing the pipe support fitting to the attachment portion pass through the elongated hole of the attachment portion. And in the state in which the two bolts were attached to the mounting portion, a projection protruding into the long hole is formed between the two bolts of the long hole.

  Here, in the state where two bolts are inserted into the long hole, there is a protrusion between them. That is, the groove width of the portion where the protrusion is formed is narrower than that of the other portion. For this reason, it becomes difficult for the bolt to move in the long hole, the state before tightening becomes stable, and the tightening work for fixing becomes easier.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the fixture according to any one of the first to third aspects, the base portion and the mounting portion are formed by bending a belt-shaped plate member. In this case, manufacture of a fixture becomes easy.

  In the present invention as described above, the pipe support bracket can be attached to the fixture while the pipe is passed through the pipe support bracket and the bolts and nuts of the pipe support bracket are temporarily assembled. Work for fixing to a fixture becomes easy. Moreover, since the nuts are not dropped during work, it is not necessary to prepare more nuts than necessary.

  FIG. 1 shows a pipe support fitting 1 and a fixture 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A pipe such as an air conditioner is attached to the pipe support fitting 1, and the fixture 2 is fixed to a wall of a building.

  The pipe support fitting 1 is formed by pressing a strip-shaped sheet metal or the like. This pipe support fitting 1 has a substantially circular C-shaped band portion 5 and a pair of fastening portions 6 extending radially outward from both annular end portions. At the center in the width direction of the band portion 5, a convex portion 5a protruding outward is formed by pressing. Each of the pair of fastening portions 6 is formed with two through holes. Bolts 7 pass through the through holes, and nuts 8 are temporarily assembled to the bolts 7.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the fixture 2 is formed by bending two strip-shaped metal plates and fixing them by spot welding or an adhesive, similar to the pipe support fitting 1. It is. The fixture 2 includes a base portion 10 disposed along a wall (not shown) of a building, and a mounting portion 11 formed so as to protrude from the surface of the base portion 10 so as to be orthogonal to the surface. Have.

  The base portion 10 is formed with one through hole 10a and 10b on the left and right, respectively, and a fixing screw or the like (not shown) passes through the through holes 10a and 10b and is screwed into a building wall or the like.

  The attachment portion 11 is formed with a long hole 11a that is long in the protruding direction. The length of the long hole 11 a is longer than the pitch (interval) between the two bolts 7 of the pipe support 1, and the width of the long hole 11 a is larger than the diameter of the bolt 7. Further, the mounting portion 11 is formed with a groove 11b that communicates the long hole 11a with the outside (outside the long hole 11a). The groove 11b has a width through which the bolt 7 can pass. Further, the groove 11 b is formed so as to incline from the distal end side of the attachment portion 11 toward the base portion 10.

  Further, in the attachment portion 11, a projection 11c is formed at a position facing the boundary portion between the long hole 11a and the groove 11b. The protrusion 11 c is disposed so as to be positioned between the two bolts 7 in a state where the pipe support 1 is mounted on the fixture 2. The protrusion 11c protrudes inward from the edge of the long hole 11a. However, since a groove 11b is formed in a portion facing the protrusion 11c, the bolt 7 extends beyond the protrusion 11c to form the long hole 11a. It can be arranged in.

  In addition, in the attachment portion 11, the boundary portion 11d with the outer edge is a curved surface on the wall on the distal end side of the groove 11b, and the catch when the bolt 7 is inserted into the groove 11b is reduced. Further, similarly, in the wall on the front end side of the groove 11b, a protrusion 11e protruding inside the elongated hole 11a is formed at the boundary with the inner edge. As will be described later, the protrusion 11e is formed for the same purpose as the protrusion 11c.

  Next, the operation | work which fixes piping to the wall etc. of a building using the above piping support metal fitting 1 and the fixture 2 is demonstrated.

  First, the fixture 2 is fixed to a building wall or the like. On the other hand, the nut 8 of the pipe support fitting 1 is removed, and the pipe is inserted into the band portion 5 of the pipe support fitting 1. It is also possible to insert the pipe into the band part 5 without removing the nut 8 and to support the pipe on the band part 5 of the pipe support fitting 1.

  Next, in a state where the pipe is attached in the band portion 5 of the pipe support bracket 1 and the bolt 7 and the nut 8 are temporarily assembled, the pipe support bracket 1 and the pipe are held at a place where the fixture 2 is fixed. Go. At this time, in the pipe support 1, it is necessary to secure a gap larger than the thickness of the attachment portion 11 of the attachment 2 between the pair of fastening portions 6.

  In the state as described above, the pair of fastening portions 6 of the pipe support bracket 1 sandwich the attachment portion 11 of the fixture 2 so that the tip side (outside) of the two bolts 7 of the pipe support bracket 1 is located. The bolt 7 is inserted into the groove 11b. That is, a portion of the bolt 7 between the pair of fastening portions 6 is inserted into the groove 11b. And the volt | bolt 7 is inserted in the long hole 11a along the groove | channel 11b, and is pushed in the back of the long hole 11a. Next, the other bolt 7 of the pipe support fitting 1 is inserted into the groove 11a, and this is arranged in the long hole 11a on the tip side from the protrusion 11c.

  In the state where the two bolts 7 are inserted into the long hole 11a as described above, the movement of the bolt 7 located on the distal end side of the long hole 11a is restricted by the protrusions 11c and 11e. Therefore, even when the nut 8 is not fastened to the bolt 7, the position of the pipe support 1 relative to the fixture 2 is stabilized.

  Next, the nut 8 is tightened to firmly fix the fastening portion 6 of the pipe support fitting 1 to the attachment portion 11 of the fixture 2. Thereby, the pipe supported by the pipe support fitting 1 is fixed to the wall of the building or the like via the fixture 2.
