  By the way, in the case of the saddles described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, it is difficult to attach and detach the pipes when the saddle is attached to the wall surface. For this reason, when the pipe is attached or detached, the saddle must be removed from the wall surface, and the work becomes complicated.

  In the case of the saddle shown in FIGS. 1 and 5 of Patent Document 3, when inserting a screw into the hole of the base, the support base, the holding arm, and the spring material become an obstacle, and the work becomes complicated. Further, even in the case of the saddle shown in FIG. 7 of the same document, when inserting a screw into the hole of the attachment portion, the holding arm becomes an obstacle, and the work becomes complicated.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a novel saddle excellent in workability.

  A saddle for achieving the above object includes a base plate having a mounting portion and a holding portion that is provided at a position different from the mounting portion on the base plate and can hold a pipe. The mounting portion is formed in a region that is to be concealed by the pipe when the base plate is viewed from the holding portion side along the thickness direction of the base plate, and is different from the holding portion in the base plate. In the position, a finger pressing surface portion is provided side by side with the mounting portion, and the holding portion is opened and closed using elastic deformation of the holding portion so that the pipe can be attached and detached. Have.

  According to this configuration, since the mounting portion is provided at a position different from the holding portion on the base plate, the holding portion is unlikely to become an obstacle when a mounting member such as a screw is inserted into the mounting portion. In addition, since the surface portion for finger pressing is provided on the base plate, the base plate can be easily and stably pressed against the wall surface or the like by pressing the same surface portion with a finger. Therefore, the saddle can be easily attached to the wall surface or the like.

Moreover, according to the said structure, even if it is in the state in which the saddle was attached to the wall surface etc., piping can be attached or detached by opening and closing an attachment / detachment opening using the elastic deformation of a holding | maintenance part.
Further, according to the above configuration, when the piping is held by the holding portion, the mounting portion is concealed by the piping when facing the base plate, so that the mounting portion is inserted into the mounting portion or the mounting portion. The member is hardly visually recognized. Therefore, it can avoid appropriately that the beauty | look of a construction location is impaired. Moreover, the presence of a mounting member such as a screw can be hidden, and the mounting member can be prevented from being unnecessarily removed.

  The center position of the holding portion in the axial direction of the pipe is biased to one side in the coaxial line direction from the center position of the base plate in the coaxial line direction, and the mounting portion and the surface portion are the center of the base plate in the axial direction. It is preferable that the position is provided so as to be biased from the position to the other side opposite to the one side in the coaxial line direction.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the saddle 10 has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and is provided in a position different from the base plate 20 having the mounting hole 21 and the mounting hole 21 on the base plate 20 to hold the pipe 50. Possible holding part 30. The saddle 10 of the present embodiment is made of a hard resin material and is formed by integral molding.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the holding portion 30 has a C-shaped cross section, and a base end portion 31 in the circumferential direction of the holding portion 30 is fixed on the base plate 20. A step 27 is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the base end portion 31 and the surface of the base plate 20.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the holding portion 30 is provided such that the axial direction of the holding portion 30, that is, the axial direction of the pipe 50 (hereinafter, axial direction A) is along the longitudinal direction of the base plate 20. In the present embodiment, one end surface of the holding portion 30 in the axial direction A is flush with one end surface of the base plate 20.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a flange 33 protruding toward the outer peripheral side is formed on the entire distal end portion 32 of the holding portion 30 in the axial direction A.
The gap between the proximal end portion 31 and the distal end portion 32 of the holding portion 30 is opened and closed by using elastic deformation of the holding portion 30, so that the pipe 50 can be attached and detached.

A restriction rib 35 extending along the circumferential direction is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the holding portion 30 so as to protrude. The restriction rib 35 is formed at the central portion of the holding portion 30 in the axial direction A.
On the outer peripheral surface of the holding portion 30, a belt-shaped reinforcing portion 36 that extends along the circumferential direction from the distal end portion 32 toward the base end portion 31 and extends linearly along the plate thickness direction B of the base plate 20 from the middle protrudes. It is installed. The reinforcing portion 36 is continuous with the side surface of the base plate 20. As shown in FIG. 2, a thin-walled portion that connects the inner surface of the reinforcing portion 36 on the straight line, the outer peripheral surface of the base end portion 31 of the holding portion 30, and the surface of the base plate 20 without a gap. 37 is provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, a plurality (four in this embodiment) of engaging claws 22 are formed at equiangular intervals on the inner peripheral surface of the mounting hole 21. The plurality of engaging claws 22 are respectively located on the surface side of the base plate 20.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a finger pressing surface portion 23 is provided on the surface of the base plate 20 side by side with the mounting hole 21 in the short direction of the base plate 20. The surface portion 23 has a planar shape.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in the saddle 10 of the present embodiment, the center position C2 of the holding portion 30 in the axial direction A is shifted from the center position C1 of the base plate 20 in the axial direction A to the one in the axial direction A (left side of the figure). ). Further, the mounting hole 21 and the surface portion 23 are provided so as to be biased from the center position C1 of the base plate 20 in the axial direction A to the other side (right side in the figure) opposite to the one in the axial direction A.

  When the saddle 10 is attached to the ceiling in this way, the four protrusions 26 on the back surface of the base plate 20 bite into the ceiling. For this reason, when an external force acts on the saddle 10, the saddle 10 is prevented from turning around the attachment hole 21.

  Further, the protrusion 26 bites into the ceiling and is crushed by the ceiling. Therefore, a gap may be generated between the ceiling and the back surface of the base plate 20. In this regard, according to the saddle 10 of the present embodiment, since the concave portion 25 is provided on the outer periphery of the projection 26, the material of the crushed projection 26 moves to the concave portion 25, and the ceiling and the back surface of the base plate 20. It can suppress that a clearance gap arises between.

  As shown in FIG. 7, in a state where the pipe 50 is held by the holding portion 30, the regulation rib 35 (see FIGS. 1 and 2) on the inner peripheral surface of the holding portion 30 bites into the covering material 51 of the pipe 50. As a result, the pipe 50 is stably held.

  Further, since the step 27 is formed between the surface of the base plate 20 and the inner peripheral surface of the base end portion 31 of the holding portion 30, the head portion of the screw 40 inserted through the mounting hole 21 does not interfere with the pipe 50. .

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, in the state where the pipe 50 is held by the holding portion 30, the mounting hole 21 is concealed by the pipe 50 when facing the base plate 20. The screw 40 inserted into the hole 21 is hardly visually recognized. Therefore, it is possible to appropriately avoid the appearance of the saddle 10 from being damaged. Therefore, it can avoid appropriately that the beauty | look of a construction location is impaired. Moreover, the presence of the screw 40 can be hidden, and the screw 40 can be prevented from being unnecessarily removed.

Even when the saddle 10 is attached to the ceiling, the pipe 50 can be attached / detached by opening / closing the attachment / detachment opening 34 using the elastic deformation of the holding portion 30.
As shown in FIG. 8, since the flange portion 33 is formed at the distal end portion of the holding portion 30, the bent portion between the outer peripheral surface of the holding portion 30 and the flange portion 33 and the reinforcing portion 36 are included. Further, the binding band 60 can be fastened to the holding portion 30. Thereby, the opening area of the attachment / detachment port 34 can be reduced. For this reason, in the state where the pipe 50 is held by the holding unit 30, the pipe 50 is firmly held by closing the attachment / detachment port 34 by tightening the binding band 60 to the holding unit 30 in the above-described manner. be able to.
