Description

  The present invention relates to an end cap attachment device that can also be used as a corner cap that can be fitted and attached to an end portion of a handrail base used mainly in reforming.

  Normally, handrails are pulled or leaned by the person with full weight, so a base material called a force plate is required at the location where the handrails such as stairs are to be installed. Since the base material is attached in advance before construction, it will not appear on the surface of the wall, but when renovating an old building without a handrail to a building with a handrail, the base material should be placed on the wall where the handrail needs to be installed. Need to be fixed later.

  In the case of the above-described base material, since the base material appears on the wall surface, there is a problem in that the end surface of the base material at the terminal portion or corner portion of the base material can be seen and the appearance is poor.

  In order to solve this problem, a synthetic resin cap is fitted and fixed to a fixture fixed to the base material of the handrail.

  However, since it is impossible to adjust the dimensions with such a fixed cap mounting method, there is a problem in that the appearance of the corner becomes inferior due to a slight gap at the corners of the wall with the orthogonal base material. there were.

  The present invention provides an end cap for a handrail base that can be attached to a fitting with good appearance by absorbing distortion at a corner of a wall by allowing the cap to be attached to a fixture so that the dimensions can be adjusted. To provide an attachment device.

  An end cap attachment device for a handrail base of the present invention comprises a fixture fixed to an end surface of a handrail base, a cap having upper and lower pieces fitted to the attachment, and a side piece in an orthogonal direction, The fixture includes a pair of upper and lower guide claws that fit into guide grooves formed on the inner surface of the upper and lower pieces of the cap, and a plurality of engagements that mesh with a plurality of engagement grooves formed on the inner surface of one side piece of the cap. An engagement piece in which a groove is formed is formed.

Effect of the invention

  In the handrail base end cap attachment device of the present invention, the engagement of the guide claw, the engagement piece formed with the plurality of engagement grooves on the fixture fixed to the end surface of the handrail base, and the engagement groove of the cap engage with each other. Thus, it is possible to attach the cap at the end of the handrail base while adjusting the size of the cap.

  1 is an exploded perspective view showing a mounting state of the apparatus of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a fixture constituting the apparatus of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a cap constituting the apparatus of the present invention, and FIG. FIG. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the main part showing the meshing state of the engagement grooves, and FIG. 6 shows the state in which the end part of the handrail base is processed by the device of the present invention. It is a perspective view.

  In FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, 1 is a fixture fixed to the end of the handrail base material S with a screw or the like, and a guide claw 1-1 that fits into a guide groove of a cap, which will be described later, Claw for positioning when attaching to the end of the handrail base material S and a pair of upper and lower locking pieces 1-2 formed with a plurality of engagement grooves 1-2a meshing with the plurality of engagement grooves formed on the inner surface A piece 1-3 is formed.

  Reference numeral 2 denotes a synthetic resin cap that is fitted to the fixture 1, and includes upper and lower pieces 2-1, 2-1 and orthogonal side pieces 2-2, 2-2. The inner surface of each of the pieces 2-1 and 2-1 is a recess for accommodating the guide groove 2-1a into which the guide claws 1-1 and 1-1 of the fixture 1 are respectively fitted and the claw piece 1-3 for alignment. However, when the fixture 1 does not require the positioning claw piece 1-3, the concave portion continuous to the guide groove 2-1a is not necessary.

  A plurality of engagement grooves 2-2a that mesh with the plurality of engagement grooves 1-2a of the engagement piece 1-2 are formed on the inner surface of one side piece 2-2 of the cap 2.

  The specific use of the device of the present invention is as follows. First, the fixture 1 is fixed to the end surface of the handrail base material S laid on the wall surface with a screw using an alignment claw piece 1-3, and the upper and lower guide claws 1 are fixed. -1,1-1 When the cap 2 is inserted so that the guide grooves 2-1a, 2-1a are fitted, the tips of the guide claws 1-1, 1-1 are above the cap 2 and the lower piece 2 -1 and 2-1 are once expanded and fitted into the groove, and at the same time, formed on the inner surface of the side plate 2-2 of the cap 2 in the plurality of engagement grooves 1-2a of the respective engagement pieces 1-2 of the fixture 1. The plurality of engaging grooves 2-2a are engaged with each other and fixed at a position where the hand is stopped after being inserted.

  When there is a gap between the end surface of the handrail base material S at the above-mentioned position, the cap can be attached with good appearance so that the gap is not further generated by pushing in, and the dimensions can be adjusted in this way. Unnatural appearance such as a gap generated at a corner portion where the end faces of the material S are orthogonal to each other can be absorbed.

Effect of the invention

  As described above, according to the end cap mounting device for the handrail base of the present invention, the fixture that is fixed to the end surface of the handrail base and the side that is orthogonal to the lower piece after being fitted to the fixture. The cap has a pair of upper and lower guide claws that fit into guide grooves formed on the inner surface of the upper and lower pieces of the cap, and is formed on the inner surface of one side piece of the cap. An engagement piece formed with a plurality of engagement grooves meshing with the plurality of engagement grooves is formed, and a guide claw and a plurality of engagement grooves are formed on a fixture fixed to the end surface of the handrail base. It is possible to attach the cap at the end of the handrail base while adjusting the size of the cap by adjusting the engagement between the engagement groove of the piece and the cap, and in particular, such as a gap generated at the corner where the end surfaces of the handrail base material are orthogonal to each other Taste can have an absorbable effect A.

  It is a disassembled perspective view showing the attachment state of this invention apparatus.   It is a perspective view of the fixture which comprises this invention apparatus.   It is a perspective view of the cap which comprises this invention apparatus.   It is a perspective view which shows the principal part of the same cap.   It is a principal part expanded sectional view showing the meshing state of engagement grooves.   It is a perspective view showing the state which processed the edge part of the handrail base | substrate with this invention apparatus.
