Description

本発明は、クランプ部材、およびクランプ部材付き電気融着継手に関する。   The present invention relates to a clamp member and an electrofusion joint with a clamp member.

従来、熱可塑性樹脂製の樹脂管が熱融着により連結される電気融着継手が知られている。電気融着継手は筒状をなしている。電気融着継手の内部に樹脂管を挿通した状態で給電端子に電流を流すことで、電気融着継手の内部に設けられた電熱線が発熱し、樹脂管の外周面が溶融されて、電気融着継手の内周面と融着される。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an electric fusion joint in which a resin pipe made of a thermoplastic resin is connected by thermal fusion is known. The electric fusion joint has a cylindrical shape. By passing a current through the power supply terminal with the resin pipe inserted inside the electric fusion joint, the heating wire provided inside the electric fusion joint generates heat, and the outer peripheral surface of the resin pipe is melted. It is fused with the inner peripheral surface of the fusion joint.

このような電気融着継手の熱融着による連結作業では、一定の時間がかかる熱融着の最中に、電気融着継手と樹脂管とが位置ずれを起こすことを防ぐために、例えば下記特許文献1に示すようなクランプ部材が用いられる。電気融着継手および樹脂管に許容される位置ずれ量としては、例えば中心軸線同士の傾きが3°以下であることが求められる。また、電気融着継手からの樹脂管の抜け量が1mm以内であることが求められる。
このクランプ部材は金属材料により形成され、熱融着における冷却中に、電気融着継手における一対の給電端子、および電気融着継手に接続される一対の樹脂管を、一体に保持した状態を維持する。
In the connection work by heat fusion of such an electric fusion joint, in order to prevent the electric fusion joint and the resin pipe from being displaced during the heat fusion that takes a certain time, for example, the following patents A clamp member as shown in Document 1 is used. As the amount of positional deviation allowed for the electric fusion joint and the resin pipe, for example, the inclination between the central axes is required to be 3 ° or less. In addition, it is required that the amount of the resin pipe coming out of the electrofusion joint is within 1 mm.
This clamp member is made of a metal material, and maintains a state in which the pair of power supply terminals in the electric fusion joint and the pair of resin pipes connected to the electric fusion joint are integrally held during cooling in the thermal fusion. To do.

しかしながら、前記従来のクランプ部材では、金属材料により形成されているので、クランプ部材が高価になり、同時に複数のクランプ部材を手配するのに費用がかさむ。このため、施工作業の費用を抑えながら、熱融着における冷却中に、他の電気融着継手に樹脂管を接続することができず、作業効率が悪かった。   However, since the conventional clamp member is made of a metal material, the clamp member becomes expensive, and it is expensive to arrange a plurality of clamp members at the same time. For this reason, while suppressing the cost of construction work, the resin pipe could not be connected to another electrical fusion joint during cooling in heat fusion, and work efficiency was poor.

本発明は、前述した事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、安価な構成として費用を抑えながら、電気融着継手に樹脂管を接続する施工作業を、複数の箇所で効率的に行うことができるクランプ部材及びクランプ部材付き電気融着継手を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances described above, and it is possible to efficiently perform construction work for connecting a resin pipe to an electric fusion joint at a plurality of locations while suppressing the cost as an inexpensive configuration. An object of the present invention is to provide a clamp member and an electrofusion joint with a clamp member.

前記課題を解決するために、本発明は以下の手段を提案している。
本発明に係るクランプ部材は、熱可塑性樹脂製の樹脂管と、前記樹脂管が熱融着により接続される電気融着継手と、を固定する樹脂製のクランプ部材であって、内側に前記樹脂管が挿入された状態で、前記樹脂管を保持するように縮径可能な締付帯部と、前記締付帯部の中心軸線回りに周回する周方向に互いに係合することで、前記締付帯部の縮径状態を維持する一対の係合部と、前記締付帯部に連結され、前記電気融着継手の給電端子を保持する保持部と、を備え、前記一対の係合部には、互いに係合可能な係合歯が形成されていることを特徴とする。
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes the following means.
The clamp member according to the present invention is a resin clamp member that fixes a resin pipe made of a thermoplastic resin and an electric fusion joint to which the resin pipe is connected by thermal fusion, and the resin inside A fastening band part that can be reduced in diameter so as to hold the resin pipe in a state where the pipe is inserted, and a fastening band part that engages with each other in a circumferential direction that circulates around a central axis of the fastening band part. A pair of engaging portions that maintain a reduced diameter state of the first and second fastening portions, and a holding portion that is connected to the tightening band portion and holds a power supply terminal of the electrofusion joint. Engageable engaging teeth are formed.

この発明では、樹脂管を熱融着により電気融着継手に接続、固定する際に、クランプ部材における保持部が、電気融着継手の給電端子を保持した状態にしたうえで、樹脂管をクランプ部材の締付帯部の内側に挿入しながら、電気融着継手の開口部に挿入する。その後、クランプ部材における一対の係合部に各別に形成された係合歯同士を互いに係合させることで、一対の係合部同士が、互いに締付帯部が拡径する方向に相対変位するのを規制することができる。そしてこのように、クランプ部材により、電気融着継手と樹脂管とを仮固定した状態で、給電端子に電流を流すことで、電気融着継手に樹脂管が熱融着される。   In this invention, when the resin pipe is connected and fixed to the electric fusion joint by heat fusion, the holding portion of the clamp member holds the power supply terminal of the electric fusion joint, and then the resin pipe is clamped. It inserts in the opening part of an electrofusion joint, inserting in the inside of the fastening belt | band | zone part of a member. Thereafter, by engaging the engagement teeth formed separately to the pair of engagement portions of the clamp member, the pair of engagement portions are relatively displaced in the direction in which the fastening band portion expands. Can be regulated. In this way, the resin pipe is heat-sealed to the electric fusion joint by passing a current through the power supply terminal in a state where the electric fusion joint and the resin pipe are temporarily fixed by the clamp member.

ここで、本発明ではクランプ部材が樹脂製であるため、安価な構成とすることができる。このため、同時に複数のクランプ部材を手配したとしても費用がかさむことが抑えられ、電気融着継手に樹脂管を接続する施工作業を、複数の箇所で効率的に行うことができる。
また、内側に樹脂管が挿入された締付帯部の縮径状態を保持する一対の係合部に、前記係合歯が各別に形成されているので、締付帯部により確実に樹脂管を保持することができる。
また、電気融着継手の給電端子を保持する保持部が締付帯部に連結されているので、電気融着継手と別体により構成されたクランプ部材により、電気融着継手を確実に保持することができる。
Here, in the present invention, since the clamp member is made of resin, an inexpensive configuration can be obtained. For this reason, even if it arranges several clamp members simultaneously, it can suppress that cost increases, and the construction operation | work which connects a resin pipe | tube to an electrofusion joint can be performed efficiently in several places.
In addition, since the engagement teeth are formed in a pair of engagement portions that hold the reduced diameter state of the tightening band portion in which the resin tube is inserted inside, the resin tube is securely held by the tightening band portion. can do.
In addition, since the holding portion for holding the power supply terminal of the electric fusion joint is connected to the fastening band portion, the electric fusion joint can be securely held by the clamp member formed separately from the electric fusion joint. Can do.

また、前記一対の係合部の少なくとも一方には、前記中心軸線に沿う軸方向と直交する径方向の外側に向けて突出する操作部が設けられてもよい。
この場合には、一対の係合部の少なくとも一方に、径方向の外側に向けて突出する操作部が設けられている。このため、操作部を操作して、一対の係合部における係合歯同士を、締付帯部が縮径する方向に互いに相対変位させる締付作業を容易に行うことができる。
In addition, at least one of the pair of engaging portions may be provided with an operation portion that protrudes outward in the radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction along the central axis.
In this case, at least one of the pair of engaging portions is provided with an operation portion that protrudes outward in the radial direction. For this reason, it is possible to easily perform a tightening operation of operating the operation portion to relatively displace the engagement teeth in the pair of engagement portions in the direction in which the tightening band portion is reduced in diameter.

また、前記締付帯部の内周面には、前記中心軸線に沿う軸方向と直交する径方向に向けて突出する突起部が形成されてもよい。
この場合には、内側に樹脂管が挿入された締付帯部が縮径した際に、締付帯部の内周面に形成された突起部が、樹脂管の外周面に局所的に押圧されることとなる。これにより、締付帯部の内側から樹脂管が抜けるのを抑制し、クランプ部材により、強固に樹脂管を保持することができる。
In addition, a protruding portion that protrudes in a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction along the central axis may be formed on the inner peripheral surface of the fastening band portion.
In this case, when the tightening band portion into which the resin tube is inserted is reduced in diameter, the protrusion formed on the inner peripheral surface of the tightening band portion is locally pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the resin tube. It will be. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the resin tube from coming off from the inside of the fastening band portion, and the resin tube can be firmly held by the clamp member.

また、前記保持部は、前記締付帯部における、前記中心軸線に沿う軸方向の端部に連結され、かつ前記電気融着継手の開口端縁に当接する連結片を備え、前記連結片における前記軸方向の大きさは、3mm以上であってもよい。   In addition, the holding portion includes a connecting piece that is connected to an end portion in the axial direction along the central axis line in the fastening band portion and abuts against an opening edge of the electrofusion joint, and The size in the axial direction may be 3 mm or more.

この場合には、締付帯部における軸方向の端部に連結され、電気融着継手の開口端縁と当接する連結片の軸方向の大きさが、3mm以上となっている。このため、締付帯部における軸方向の端部と、電気融着継手と、の間に3mm以上の隙間を設けることが可能になる。
したがって、例えば樹脂管の外周面に、電気融着継手への挿入の程度を示す挿入標線が設けられている場合に、外部からこの挿入標線を視認しやすくすることができる。これにより、電気融着継手に樹脂管が確実に挿入された状態とすることで、施工作業の正確性を確保することができる。
In this case, the size in the axial direction of the connecting piece that is connected to the end portion in the axial direction of the fastening band portion and abuts against the opening edge of the electrofusion joint is 3 mm or more. For this reason, it becomes possible to provide a gap of 3 mm or more between the axial end of the fastening band and the electrofusion joint.
Therefore, for example, when an insertion mark indicating the degree of insertion into the electric fusion joint is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the resin pipe, the insertion mark can be easily visually recognized from the outside. Thereby, the accuracy of the construction work can be ensured by ensuring that the resin pipe is securely inserted into the electric fusion joint.

また前記保持部は、前記締付帯部における、前記中心軸線に沿う軸方向の一方側の端部に連結され、かつ前記電気融着継手の開口端縁に当接する連結片を備え、前記一方側の端部のうち、前記中心軸線を前記径方向に挟む前記連結片の反対側に位置する部分には、前記軸方向に向けて突出する突出片が形成されてもよい。   In addition, the holding portion includes a connecting piece that is connected to an end portion on one side in the axial direction along the central axis line in the fastening band portion and abuts against an opening edge of the electrofusion joint. A projecting piece projecting in the axial direction may be formed in a portion of the end portion located on the opposite side of the connecting piece sandwiching the central axis in the radial direction.

この場合には、締付帯部における連結片が連結された、締付帯部の一方側の端部のうち、中心軸線を径方向に挟む連結片の反対側に位置する部分に、突出片が形成されている。このため、連結片が電気融着継手の開口端縁と当接することで、締付帯部の一方側の端部と、電気融着継手の開口端縁と、の間に軸方向の隙間が形成されても、突出片が電気融着継手の開口端縁に軸方向に当接する。これにより、クランプ部材が樹脂管を保持した状態で、前述した軸方向の隙間を埋めるように締付帯部が電気融着継手に対して傾くのを抑えることができる。   In this case, a projecting piece is formed at a portion located on the opposite side of the connecting piece that sandwiches the central axis in the radial direction among the end portions on one side of the fastening band portion to which the connecting piece in the fastening band portion is connected. Has been. For this reason, an axial gap is formed between the end of one side of the fastening band and the opening edge of the electrofusion joint by the contact of the connecting piece with the opening edge of the electrofusion joint. Even if it does, a protrusion piece contact | abuts to the opening edge of an electrofusion joint in an axial direction. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress the fastening band portion from being inclined with respect to the electrofusion joint so as to fill the above-described axial gap while the clamp member holds the resin pipe.

また、前記一対の係合部のうちのいずれか一方、および前記保持部それぞれにおける前記周方向の位置は、互いに同等であってもよい。
この場合には、一対の係合部のうちのいずれか一方、および保持部の周方向の位置が互いに同等である。また、保持部は、電気融着継手の給電端子を保持するため、一般に電融着継手の上側に位置している。このため、一対の係合部のうちの他方が、水平方向に延びる姿勢となりやすく、一対の係合部同士を相対変位させる作業を容易に行うことができる。
また、一対の係合部のうちの一方、および保持部の周方向の位置が同等であるため、一対の係合部が水平方向にかさ張るのを抑えることができる。
In addition, the circumferential position of any one of the pair of engaging portions and the holding portion may be equal to each other.
In this case, any one of the pair of engaging portions and the circumferential position of the holding portion are equal to each other. Moreover, in order to hold | maintain the electric power feeding terminal of an electrofusion joint, a holding | maintenance part is generally located in the upper side of an electrofusion joint. For this reason, the other of the pair of engaging portions tends to be in a posture extending in the horizontal direction, and the work of relatively displacing the pair of engaging portions can be easily performed.
Moreover, since the position of the circumferential direction of one of a pair of engaging parts and the holding | maintenance part is equivalent, it can suppress that a pair of engaging part is bulging in a horizontal direction.

前記一対の係合部のうちの前記一方と、前記保持部と、の間には、前記中心軸線に沿う軸方向の隙間が形成されてもよい。
この場合には、一対の係合部のうちの一方と、保持部と、の間に軸方向の隙間が形成されている。このため、一対の係合部それぞれにおける各係合歯同士を互いに係合させた際に、それぞれの係合部を変位しやすくすることで、円滑に各係合歯同士を係合させることができる。
An axial gap along the central axis may be formed between the one of the pair of engaging portions and the holding portion.
In this case, an axial gap is formed between one of the pair of engaging portions and the holding portion. For this reason, when each engagement tooth in each of a pair of engagement parts is mutually engaged, each engagement tooth can be smoothly engaged by making each engagement part easy to displace. it can.

前記一対の係合部のうちの他方には、前記一対の係合部の一方が前記中心軸線方向に沿う軸方向に相対的にずれることを阻止する突起部材が形成されていてもよい。
この場合には、クランプ部材の一対の係合部同士を係合させる際、一方の係合部が保持部側にずれて他方の係合部との係合面積が小さくなることを阻止し、安定してクランプできる。
なお、一対の係合部にそれぞれ形成された複数の係合歯における、いずれか一方または両方の先端側の係合歯が後続の係合歯よりも高さが低く形成されていてもよい。
この場合、一対の係合部の複数の係合歯同士を係合させる際、一方または両方の係合部の先端側の係合歯の高さが低いため比較的小さな力で初期の係合による仮締めが行え、その後は工具等を用いて比較的大きな力で後続の係合歯同士を係合させることができる。
A protruding member may be formed on the other of the pair of engaging portions to prevent one of the pair of engaging portions from relatively shifting in the axial direction along the central axis direction.
In this case, when engaging the pair of engaging parts of the clamp member, one engaging part is prevented from shifting to the holding part side and the engaging area with the other engaging part is reduced, Can clamp stably.
Note that one or both of the engagement teeth on the plurality of engagement teeth respectively formed on the pair of engagement portions may be formed lower in height than the subsequent engagement teeth.
In this case, when engaging the plurality of engaging teeth of the pair of engaging portions, the initial engagement with a relatively small force because the height of the engaging teeth on the tip side of one or both engaging portions is low. Then, the subsequent engagement teeth can be engaged with each other with a relatively large force using a tool or the like.

前記保持部には、前記電気融着継手の給電端子を挿入する挿通孔が形成され、前記挿通孔には前記給電端子に設けた突部を挿入する切欠部が形成されていてもよい。
電気融着継手の給電端子の外周面に突部を設けたことで、バーコード等のタグを取り付ける際に外れにくくなる上に、給電端子をクランプ部材の保持部の挿通孔に挿入する際に突部が挿通孔の切欠部に挿入されるため、保持部12が外れにくく見栄えが良い。
The holding portion may be formed with an insertion hole for inserting a power supply terminal of the electric fusion joint, and the insertion hole may be formed with a notch for inserting a protrusion provided on the power supply terminal.
Providing protrusions on the outer peripheral surface of the power supply terminal of the electric fusion joint makes it difficult to come off when attaching a tag such as a barcode, and also when inserting the power supply terminal into the insertion hole of the holding part of the clamp member Since the protrusion is inserted into the cutout portion of the insertion hole, the holding portion 12 is hard to come off and looks good.

また、本発明に係るクランプ部材付き電気融着継手は、熱可塑性樹脂製の樹脂管が熱融着により接続される電気融着継手と、前述したいずれかのクランプ部材と、を備えてもよい。
この場合には、電気融着継手とクランプ材とを備えている。このため電気融着継手に樹脂管を接続する施工作業において、クランプ部材を個別に準備する必要が無く、より一層効率的に施工作業を行うことができる。しかも、クランプ部材は樹脂製であるため、締付帯部を弾性変位させて樹脂管に緊密に巻き付けて一対の係合部で係合し、固定できる。
Moreover, the electrofusion joint with a clamp member according to the present invention may include an electrofusion joint to which a resin pipe made of a thermoplastic resin is connected by thermal fusion, and any of the clamp members described above. .
In this case, an electrofusion joint and a clamp member are provided. For this reason, in the construction work which connects a resin pipe to an electric fusion joint, it is not necessary to prepare a clamp member separately and construction work can be performed still more efficiently. Moreover, since the clamp member is made of resin, it can be fixed by elastically displacing the tightening band portion and tightly winding it around the resin tube and engaging with the pair of engaging portions.

本発明によれば、安価な構成として費用を抑えながら、電気融着継手に樹脂管を接続する施工作業を、複数の箇所で効率的に行うことができる。   ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the construction operation | work which connects a resin pipe | tube to an electric fusion joint can be efficiently performed in several places, suppressing expense as an inexpensive structure.

A resin pipe 100 made of a thermoplastic resin is connected to the electric fusion joint 2 by thermal fusion.
The clamp member 1 temporarily fixes the resin tube 100 and the electrofusion joint 2 when the resin tube 100 is connected and fixed to the electrofusion joint 2 by heat fusion.
Here, the temporary fixing between the resin pipe 100 and the electric fusion joint 2 means that the central axis of the electric fusion joint 2 is inclined with respect to the central axis of the resin pipe 100 during the heat fusion operation, or the resin pipe. This means that 100 is prevented from coming out of the opening of the electric fusion joint 2.

電気融着継手2は筒状をなしている。電気融着継手2の周壁20のうち、内周面の近傍には、電熱線21が樹脂管100毎に各別に埋設されている。また、電気融着継手2の周壁20のうち、各開口端部の近傍には、電熱線21と導通された給電端子22が各別に設けられている。給電端子22から、電熱線21に電流を流すことで、電熱線21を発熱させて、電気融着継手2の内側に挿入された樹脂管100を、電気融着継手2の内面に熱融着することができる。

In addition, in the peripheral wall 20 of the electrofusion joint 2, power supply terminals 22 that are electrically connected to the heating wires 21 are provided in the vicinity of each opening end. By causing a current to flow from the power supply terminal 22 to the heating wire 21, the heating wire 21 generates heat, and the resin tube 100 inserted inside the electrofusion joint 2 is thermally fused to the inner surface of the electrofusion joint 2. can do.
In the following description, a direction along the central axis O of the electrofusion joint 2 is referred to as an axial direction. Further, a direction intersecting the central axis O in a plan view viewed from the axial direction is referred to as a radial direction, and a direction around the central axis O is referred to as a circumferential direction.

図1および図2に示すように、クランプ部材1は、内側に樹脂管100が挿入された状態で、樹脂管100を保持するように縮径可能な締付帯部10を備えている。
図3に示すように、締付帯部10は、軸方向から見た平面視で、周方向の一部が分断されたC字状をなしている。締付帯部10のうち、周方向に分断された部分の標準状態における大きさは、中心軸線Oを中心とする中心角θが式(1)を満たしている。
θ>360−360×D0/D1…(1)
ここで、D0:樹脂管100の外径、D1:締付帯部10の内径を指す。また、締付帯部10の標準状態とは、図3に示すように、後述する一対の係合部11A、11Bそれぞれの先端部同士が、径方向に延びる一直線状に配置された状態を指す。
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the clamp member 1 includes a fastening band portion 10 that can be reduced in diameter so as to hold the resin tube 100 in a state where the resin tube 100 is inserted inside.
As shown in FIG. 3, the fastening band portion 10 has a C shape in which a part in the circumferential direction is divided in a plan view as viewed from the axial direction. Regarding the size in the standard state of the portion of the fastening band 10 that is divided in the circumferential direction, the central angle θ about the central axis O satisfies the formula (1).
θ> 360-360 × D0 / D1 (1)

次に、クランプ部材1による電気融着継手2と樹脂管100との仮固定の作業について説明する。
図1に示すように、樹脂管100を熱融着により電気融着継手2に接続する際には、クランプ部材1における保持部12の挿通孔12C内に、電気融着継手2の給電端子22を挿通する。
Next, the operation of temporarily fixing the electric fusion joint 2 and the resin pipe 100 by the clamp member 1 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, when the resin tube 100 is connected to the electric fusion joint 2 by heat fusion, the feeding terminal 22 of the electric fusion joint 2 is inserted into the insertion hole 12 </ b> C of the holding portion 12 in the clamp member 1. Is inserted.

そして、保持部12における連結片12A、および締付帯部10に形成された突出片17を、電気融着継手2の開口端縁に各別に当接しながら、樹脂管100が締付帯部10の内側を通って、電気融着継手2の開口部内に挿通できるように位置決めする。
これにより、締付帯部10における軸方向の一方側の端部と、電気融着継手2の開口端縁と、の間に3mmの隙間が形成される。
The resin pipe 100 is located inside the fastening band 10 while the connecting piece 12A in the holding part 12 and the projecting piece 17 formed on the fastening band 10 are brought into contact with the opening edge of the electrofusion joint 2 separately. And is positioned so that it can be inserted into the opening of the electric fusion joint 2.
As a result, a gap of 3 mm is formed between the end of one side in the axial direction of the fastening band 10 and the opening edge of the electrofusion joint 2.

そして、樹脂管100をクランプ部材1の締付帯部10の内側に挿入しながら、電気融着継手2の開口部に挿入する。この際、クランプ部材1における一対の係合部11A,11Bに各別に形成された係合歯13A,13B同士を互いに係合させる。係合部11A,11Bの操作は、操作部14A,14Bをペンチで締めることで行う。
係合歯13A,13B同士が互いに係合することで、一対の係合部11A,11B同士が、締付帯部10が拡径する方向に、互いに相対変位するのを規制することができる。そして、クランプ部材1により、電気融着継手2と樹脂管100とが仮固定された状態となる。
Then, the resin pipe 100 is inserted into the opening of the electrofusion joint 2 while being inserted inside the fastening band 10 of the clamp member 1. At this time, the engaging teeth 13A and 13B formed separately on the pair of engaging portions 11A and 11B in the clamp member 1 are engaged with each other. The engaging portions 11A and 11B are operated by tightening the operating portions 14A and 14B with pliers.
By engaging the engaging teeth 13A and 13B with each other, it is possible to restrict the pair of engaging portions 11A and 11B from being displaced relative to each other in the direction in which the fastening band portion 10 expands in diameter. Then, the electrofusion joint 2 and the resin pipe 100 are temporarily fixed by the clamp member 1.

最後に、給電端子22に電流を流すことで、電気融着継手2に樹脂管100が熱融着される。熱融着が完了した後には、クランプ部材1を電気融着継手2に付けたまま残置しておく。その後、通水試験を行ない、漏水が発生しなければクランプ部材1を残置したまま通水して、電気融着継手2や樹脂管100からなる配管システムを使用する。なお、クランプ部材1を、電気融着継手2および樹脂管100から取り外してもよい。
仮に、クランプ部材1を取り外す場合には、第2操作部14Bを径方向の外側に引張りながら、第1操作部14Aを周方向のうち、第2操作部14Bから離間する方向に向けて引きぬく。これにより、一対の係合部11A,11B同士の係合が解除され、締付帯部10を樹脂管100から取り外し、保持部12の挿通孔12Cを給電端子22から取り外すことができる。
また、クランプ部材1を残置する場合には、係合部11A,11Bの幅を引き抜きできない程度にしておくのが好ましい。
Finally, the resin pipe 100 is heat-sealed to the electric fusion joint 2 by passing a current through the power supply terminal 22. After the heat fusion is completed, the clamp member 1 is left attached to the electric fusion joint 2. Thereafter, a water passage test is performed. If no water leakage occurs, water is passed with the clamp member 1 left, and a piping system including the electric fusion joint 2 and the resin pipe 100 is used. The clamp member 1 may be detached from the electrofusion joint 2 and the resin pipe 100.
If the clamp member 1 is to be removed, the first operating portion 14A is pulled in the circumferential direction away from the second operating portion 14B while pulling the second operating portion 14B outward in the radial direction. . Thereby, the engagement between the pair of engaging portions 11 </ b> A and 11 </ b> B is released, the fastening band portion 10 can be removed from the resin tube 100, and the insertion hole 12 </ b> C of the holding portion 12 can be removed from the power supply terminal 22.
Further, when leaving the clamp member 1, it is preferable that the width of the engaging portions 11 </ b> A and 11 </ b> B is set so as not to be pulled out.

以上説明したように、本実施形態に係るクランプ部材1によれば、クランプ部材1が樹脂製であるため、安価な構成とすることができる。このため、同時に複数のクランプ部材1を手配したとしても費用がかさむことが抑えられ、電気融着継手2に樹脂管100を接続する施工作業を、複数の箇所で効率的に行うことができる。
また、内側に樹脂管100が挿入された締付帯部10の縮径状態を保持する一対の係合部11A,11Bに、前記係合歯13A,13Bが各別に形成されているので、締付帯部10により確実に樹脂管100を保持することができる。
また、電気融着継手2の給電端子22を保持する保持部12が締付帯部10に連結されているので、電気融着継手2と別体により構成されたクランプ部材1により、電気融着継手2を確実に保持することができる。
As described above, according to the clamp member 1 according to the present embodiment, since the clamp member 1 is made of resin, an inexpensive configuration can be achieved. For this reason, even if a plurality of clamp members 1 are arranged at the same time, the cost is kept from increasing, and the construction work for connecting the resin pipe 100 to the electrofusion joint 2 can be performed efficiently at a plurality of locations.
In addition, since the engagement teeth 13A and 13B are formed separately on the pair of engagement portions 11A and 11B that maintain the reduced diameter state of the tightening band portion 10 in which the resin tube 100 is inserted, the tightening band The resin tube 100 can be reliably held by the portion 10.
In addition, since the holding portion 12 that holds the power supply terminal 22 of the electric fusion joint 2 is connected to the fastening band portion 10, the electric fusion joint is formed by the clamp member 1 that is formed separately from the electric fusion joint 2. 2 can be securely held.

また、締付帯部10のうち、周方向に分断された部分の大きさが、前述した式(1)を満たしている。このため、締付帯部10の周方向に分断された部分を除く内径が、樹脂管100の外径よりも短いこととなり、一対の係合部11A,11B同士を相対変位させることで、確実に締付帯部10により樹脂管100を保持することができる。
また、締付帯部10、係合部11A,11B、および保持部12が一体に形成されているので、クランプ部材1を合成樹脂材料の射出成形等により、容易に形成することができる。
また、クランプ部材1が電気融着継手2と別体に形成されているので、射出成形により形成する場合に、金型が複雑になるのを防ぎ、製造コストを抑えることができる。
In addition, the size of the portion of the fastening band 10 that is divided in the circumferential direction satisfies the above-described formula (1). For this reason, the inner diameter excluding the portion divided in the circumferential direction of the fastening band portion 10 is shorter than the outer diameter of the resin tube 100, and the pair of engaging portions 11A and 11B are reliably displaced by relative displacement. The resin tube 100 can be held by the fastening band 10.
Further, since the fastening band portion 10, the engaging portions 11A and 11B, and the holding portion 12 are integrally formed, the clamp member 1 can be easily formed by injection molding of a synthetic resin material or the like.
Moreover, since the clamp member 1 is formed separately from the electrofusion joint 2, it is possible to prevent the mold from becoming complicated and to reduce the manufacturing cost when formed by injection molding.

また、クランプ部材1が、電気融着継手2における給電端子22、および接続管を1つずつ保持する。このため、例えば一対の給電端子22、および電気融着継手2に接続される一対の樹脂管100を一体に保持する構成と比較して、クランプ部材1のサイズが大きくなるのを抑え、狭い場所での施工作業を容易に行うことができる。   Further, the clamp member 1 holds the power supply terminal 22 and the connection pipe in the electrofusion joint 2 one by one. For this reason, compared with the structure which hold | maintains a pair of power supply terminal 22 and the pair of resin pipes 100 connected to the electrofusion joint 2, for example, it suppresses that the size of the clamp member 1 becomes large, and is a narrow place The construction work at can be easily performed.

また、一対の係合部11A,11Bに、径方向の外側に向けて突出する操作部14A,14Bが各別に設けられている。このため、操作部14A,14Bを操作して、一対の係合部11A,11Bにおける係合歯13A,13B同士を、締付帯部10が縮径する方向に互いに相対変位させる締付作業を容易に行うことができる。   The pair of engaging portions 11A and 11B are provided with operation portions 14A and 14B that protrude outward in the radial direction. Therefore, it is easy to perform a tightening operation by operating the operation portions 14A and 14B to relatively displace the engagement teeth 13A and 13B in the pair of engagement portions 11A and 11B in the direction in which the tightening band portion 10 is reduced in diameter. Can be done.

また、締付帯部10の内周面に、径方向に向けて突出する突起部15が形成されている。このため、内側に樹脂管100が挿入された締付帯部10が縮径した際に、締付帯部10の内周面に形成された突起部15が、樹脂管100の外周面に局所的に押圧されることとなる。これにより、締付帯部10の内側から樹脂管100が抜けるのを抑制し、クランプ部材1により、強固に樹脂管100を保持することができる。   In addition, a projection 15 that protrudes in the radial direction is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the fastening band 10. For this reason, when the fastening band portion 10 into which the resin tube 100 is inserted is reduced in diameter, the protrusion 15 formed on the inner peripheral surface of the tightening band portion 10 is locally formed on the outer peripheral surface of the resin tube 100. It will be pressed. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the resin tube 100 from coming out from the inside of the fastening band portion 10, and to firmly hold the resin tube 100 by the clamp member 1.

また、締付帯部10における軸方向の端部に連結され、電気融着継手2の開口端縁と当接する連結片12Aの軸方向の大きさL1が、3mm以上となっている。このため、締付帯部10における軸方向の端部と、電気融着継手2と、の間に3mm以上の隙間を設けることが可能になる。
したがって、例えば樹脂管100に外周面に、電気融着継手2への挿入の程度を示す挿入標線が設けられている場合に、外部からこの挿入標線を視認しやすくすることができる。これにより、電気融着継手2に樹脂管100が確実に挿入された状態とすることで、施工作業の正確性を確保することができる。
In addition, the axial size L1 of the connecting piece 12A that is connected to the axial end of the fastening band 10 and contacts the opening edge of the electrofusion joint 2 is 3 mm or more. For this reason, it is possible to provide a gap of 3 mm or more between the axial end of the tightening band 10 and the electrofusion joint 2.
Therefore, for example, when an insertion mark indicating the degree of insertion into the electrofusion joint 2 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the resin pipe 100, the insertion mark can be easily seen from the outside. Thereby, the accuracy of construction work can be ensured by ensuring that the resin pipe 100 is inserted into the electrofusion joint 2 reliably.

また、締付帯部10における連結片12Aが連結された、締付帯部10の一方側の端部のうち、中心軸線Oを径方向に挟む連結片12Aの反対側に位置する部分に、突出片17が形成されている。このため、連結片12Aが電気融着継手2の開口端縁と当接することで、締付帯部10の一方側の端部と、電気融着継手2の開口端縁と、の間に軸方向の隙間が形成されても、突出片17が電気融着継手2の開口端縁に軸方向に当接する。これにより、クランプ部材1が樹脂管100を保持した状態で、前述した軸方向の隙間を埋めるように、締付帯部10が電気融着継手2に対して傾くのを抑えることができる。   Further, a protruding piece is formed on a portion located on the opposite side of the connecting piece 12A that sandwiches the central axis O in the radial direction among the one end of the fastening band 10 to which the connecting piece 12A of the fastening band 10 is connected. 17 is formed. For this reason, the connecting piece 12 </ b> A is in contact with the opening edge of the electrofusion joint 2, so that the axial direction is between the one end of the fastening band 10 and the opening edge of the electrofusion joint 2. Even if this gap is formed, the protruding piece 17 abuts on the opening end edge of the electrofusion joint 2 in the axial direction. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the fastening band portion 10 from being inclined with respect to the electrofusion joint 2 so as to fill the above-described axial gap while the clamp member 1 holds the resin pipe 100.

また、本実施形態に係るクランプ部材付き電気融着継手3では、クランプ部材1と、電気融着継手2と、を備えている。このため、電気融着継手2に樹脂管100を接続する施工作業において、クランプ部材1を個別に準備する必要が無く、より一層効率的に施工作業を行うことができる。   Moreover, in the electrofusion joint 3 with a clamp member which concerns on this embodiment, the clamp member 1 and the electrofusion joint 2 are provided. For this reason, in the construction work which connects the resin pipe 100 to the electric fusion joint 2, it is not necessary to prepare the clamp member 1 separately, and the construction work can be performed more efficiently.

そして、一対の係合部11A,11Bのうちのいずれか一方、および保持部12それぞれにおける周方向の位置は、互いに同等となっている。図示の例では、一対の係合部11A,11Bのうち、径方向の外側に位置する第2係合部11B、および保持部12それぞれにおける周方向の位置が互いに同等となっている。
As shown in FIG. 4, in the clamp member 1B according to the present embodiment, the positional relationship in the circumferential direction between the pair of engaging portions 11A and 11B is opposite to that of the clamp member 1 according to the first embodiment. When the side where the holding portion 12 is located is the upper side, the receiving-side engaging portion 11B is located above the insertion-side engaging portion 11A.
And the position of the circumferential direction in either one of a pair of engaging part 11A, 11B and the holding | maintenance part 12 is mutually equivalent. In the illustrated example, among the pair of engaging portions 11A and 11B, the circumferential positions of the second engaging portion 11B and the holding portion 12 that are located on the outer side in the radial direction are equal to each other.

図4および図5に示すように、第2係合部11Bは、補強リブ16と一体に形成されている。そして、第2係合部11Bと、保持部12と、の間には、軸方向の隙間CLが形成されている。軸方向の隙間CLは、第2係合部11Bのうち、周方向に延びる部分の全域と、保持部12の連結片12Aと、の間に形成されている。図4に示すように、軸方向から見た平面視で、操作部14A,14Bは、挿通孔12Cの中心から90度以内にある。さらには、係合部11A,11Bも90度以内にある。   As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the second engaging portion 11 </ b> B is formed integrally with the reinforcing rib 16. An axial gap CL is formed between the second engagement portion 11B and the holding portion 12. The axial gap CL is formed between the entire area of the second engaging portion 11B extending in the circumferential direction and the connecting piece 12A of the holding portion 12. As shown in FIG. 4, the operation portions 14A and 14B are within 90 degrees from the center of the insertion hole 12C in a plan view as viewed from the axial direction. Furthermore, the engaging portions 11A and 11B are also within 90 degrees.

以上説明したように、本実施形態に係るクランプ部材1Bでは、第2係合部11Bおよび保持部12の周方向の位置が互いに同等である。また、保持部12は、電気融着継手2の給電端子22を保持するため、電気融着継手2の上側に位置している。このため、第1係合部11Aが、水平方向に延びる姿勢となりやすく、一対の係合部11A,11B同士を相対変位させる作業を容易に行うことができる。
また、第2係合部11Bおよび保持部12の周方向の位置が同等であるため、一対の係合部11A,11Bが水平方向にかさ張るのを抑えることができる。また、受け側の係合部11Bは、挿し側の係合部11Aより上側となるので、差込みやすい。
As described above, in the clamp member 1B according to the present embodiment, the circumferential positions of the second engagement portion 11B and the holding portion 12 are equal to each other. The holding portion 12 is positioned above the electrofusion joint 2 in order to hold the power supply terminal 22 of the electrofusion joint 2. For this reason, 11 A of 1st engaging parts are easy to become the attitude | position extended in a horizontal direction, and the operation | work which carries out relative displacement of a pair of engaging parts 11A and 11B can be performed easily.
Moreover, since the position of the circumferential direction of the 2nd engaging part 11B and the holding | maintenance part 12 is equivalent, it can suppress that a pair of engaging part 11A, 11B is bulky in a horizontal direction. Also, the receiving-side engaging portion 11B is located above the insertion-side engaging portion 11A, so that it is easy to insert.

また、第2係合部11Bと保持部12との間に軸方向の隙間CLが形成されている。このため、一対の係合部11A,11Bそれぞれにおける各係合歯13A,13B同士を互いに係合させた際に、それぞれの係合部11A,11Bを変位しやすくすることで、円滑に各係合歯13A,13B同士を係合させることができる。   Further, an axial gap CL is formed between the second engaging portion 11B and the holding portion 12. For this reason, when each engaging tooth 13A, 13B in each of a pair of engaging part 11A, 11B is mutually engaged, each engaging part 11A, 11B is made easy to displace, and each engagement is smoothly carried out. The teeth 13A and 13B can be engaged with each other.

(第3実施形態)
次に、本発明の第3実施形態について、図6および図7を参照して説明する。本実施形態によるクランプ部材1Cは、第2実施形態によるクランプ部材1Bと基本構成を同一にしている。そのため、本実施形態によるクランプ部材1Cは、第2実施形態と同一の構成については同一の符号を付してその説明は省略し、異なる点についてのみ説明する。
図6において、本実施形態によるクランプ部材1Cは、第2係合部11Bにおいて径方向外側に突出する第2操作部14Bを有していない。下面側に第2係合歯13Bを有する所定厚みの第2係合部11Bが、締付帯部10の周方向に沿って第1係合部11A方向に円弧状に延びて先端面14Cで仕切られている。第2係合部11Bは第2操作部14Bを兼用している。そのため、第1操作部14Aと第2係合部11Bをペンチ等の工具で締めることで、締付帯部10を弾性変形させて縮径させて係合歯13A、13B同士を係合させることができる。
(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The clamp member 1C according to the present embodiment has the same basic configuration as the clamp member 1B according to the second embodiment. Therefore, 1 C of clamp members by this embodiment attach the same code | symbol about the structure same as 2nd Embodiment, the description is abbreviate | omitted, and only a different point is demonstrated.
In FIG. 6, the clamp member 1 </ b> C according to the present embodiment does not have the second operation portion 14 </ b> B protruding outward in the radial direction in the second engagement portion 11 </ b> B. A second engagement portion 11B having a predetermined thickness having second engagement teeth 13B on the lower surface side extends in an arc shape in the direction of the first engagement portion 11A along the circumferential direction of the fastening band portion 10, and is partitioned by the distal end surface 14C. It has been. The second engagement portion 11B also serves as the second operation portion 14B. Therefore, by tightening the first operating portion 14A and the second engaging portion 11B with a tool such as pliers, the fastening band portion 10 can be elastically deformed and reduced in diameter to engage the engaging teeth 13A and 13B. it can.

なお、上述した第3実施形態によるクランプ部材1Cにおいて、上述した構成とは逆に、第2係合部11Bに第2操作部14Bを設け、第1係合部11Aに第1操作部を設けない構成を採用してもよい。この場合でも、締付帯部10から第1係合部11Aに向けて外周面が径方向外側に起立するように起立部を形成すれば、この起立部と第2操作部14Bとを操作できる。   In the clamp member 1C according to the third embodiment described above, the second operating portion 14B is provided in the second engaging portion 11B, and the first operating portion is provided in the first engaging portion 11A, contrary to the configuration described above. A configuration without this may be adopted. Even in this case, if the standing portion is formed so that the outer peripheral surface stands radially outward from the fastening band portion 10 toward the first engaging portion 11A, the standing portion and the second operation portion 14B can be operated.

また、第1係合部11Aの先端部には、その側面に軸ずれ防止用の突起部材25が一体形成されている。突起部材25は、第2係合部11Bと保持部12の連結片12Aとの間に形成された隙間CLに対向する位置に設置されている。しかも、突起部材25の厚みは隙間CLの幅より小さく形成されている。この突起部材25を隙間CL側にかしめることで、第2係合部11Bと連結片12Aとの間の隙間CL内に延びた形状にすることができる。
これにより、クランプ部材1Cで締付帯部10に挿入された樹脂管100を締め付けて固定する際、操作部14Aと第2係合部11Bを操作して第1係合部11Aを案内部10Aと第2係合部11Bの間に挿入する。その際、突起部材25が隙間CLにガイドされて進入することで、第1係合部11Aと第2係合部11Bとが相対的に中心軸線O方向にずれることを防止できる。そのため、図7に示すように、係合歯13Aと係合歯13Bの係合を確実に行え、係合歯13Aと係合歯13Bが噛合する面積が十分確保されるため、安定して樹脂管100をクランプできる。
In addition, a protruding member 25 for preventing axial deviation is integrally formed on the side surface of the distal end portion of the first engaging portion 11A. The protruding member 25 is disposed at a position facing the gap CL formed between the second engaging portion 11B and the connecting piece 12A of the holding portion 12. Moreover, the thickness of the protruding member 25 is smaller than the width of the gap CL. By caulking the protruding member 25 toward the gap CL, the protruding member 25 can be shaped to extend into the gap CL between the second engagement portion 11B and the connecting piece 12A.
Thus, when the resin tube 100 inserted into the fastening band portion 10 is clamped and fixed by the clamp member 1C, the first engaging portion 11A and the guide portion 10A are operated by operating the operating portion 14A and the second engaging portion 11B. It inserts between the 2nd engaging parts 11B. At this time, the protrusion member 25 is guided by the gap CL and enters, so that the first engagement portion 11A and the second engagement portion 11B can be prevented from being relatively displaced in the direction of the central axis O. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, the engagement teeth 13A and the engagement teeth 13B can be reliably engaged, and an area where the engagement teeth 13A and the engagement teeth 13B are engaged is sufficiently secured. The tube 100 can be clamped.

なお、突起部材25は、予め第2係合部11Bと保持部12の連結片12Aとの間の隙間CLに延ばして形成してもよい。この場合でも、係合歯13Aと係合歯13Bは突起部材25にガイドされて係合位置に相対移動できる。しかも、突起部材25をかしめる必要がない。
また、突起部材25は第1係合部11Aに代えて第2係合部11Bの先端部の側面に形成されていてもよい。この場合でも、突起部材25が標準状態で第1係合部11Aの側面に重なる位置に設ける構成とすれば、かしめる必要はない。また、突起部材25は第1係合部11Aまたは第2係合部11Bの隙間CLと反対側の側面に設けてもよい。
The protruding member 25 may be formed by extending in advance to the gap CL between the second engaging portion 11B and the connecting piece 12A of the holding portion 12. Even in this case, the engaging teeth 13A and the engaging teeth 13B are guided by the protruding members 25 and can be relatively moved to the engaging positions. Moreover, it is not necessary to caulk the protruding member 25.
Further, the protruding member 25 may be formed on the side surface of the distal end portion of the second engaging portion 11B instead of the first engaging portion 11A. Even in this case, if the protruding member 25 is provided at a position overlapping the side surface of the first engaging portion 11A in the standard state, there is no need for caulking. Further, the protruding member 25 may be provided on the side surface opposite to the gap CL of the first engaging portion 11A or the second engaging portion 11B.

図8及び図9は上述した各実施形態によるクランプ部材1、1B、1C及び電気融着継手2の変形例を示すものである。これを第3実施形態によるクランプ部材付き電気融着継手3を例にとって以下に説明する。
図8に示す電気融着継手2において、給電端子22の外周面に突部22Aを設けてもよい。突部22Aは給電端子22の外周面の下端部に形成することが好ましい。これにより、例えば図8に示すように、バーコード等のタグ27を取り付けるリング27Aを給電端子22に取り付ける際、突部22Aにリング27Aが係止するため外れにくい利点がある。
8 and 9 show modifications of the clamp members 1, 1B, 1C and the electrofusion joint 2 according to the above-described embodiments. This will be described below by taking the electrofusion joint 3 with the clamp member according to the third embodiment as an example.
In the electric fusion joint 2 shown in FIG. 8, a protrusion 22 </ b> A may be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the power supply terminal 22. The protrusion 22 </ b> A is preferably formed at the lower end of the outer peripheral surface of the power supply terminal 22. Thus, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, when the ring 27A for attaching the tag 27 such as a barcode is attached to the power supply terminal 22, there is an advantage that the ring 27A is locked to the protruding portion 22A and is not easily detached.

また、図9に示すように、給電端子22を挿入する保持部12の挿通孔12Cには、給電端子22の突部22Aを嵌合させる溝状の切欠部12Dを形成することが好ましい。これによって、給電端子22をクランプ部材1Cの保持部12の挿通孔12Cに挿入させる際、突部22Aを切欠部12Dに挿入させることができるので、保持部12が外れにくく見栄えが良いという利点がある。   Further, as shown in FIG. 9, it is preferable to form a groove-shaped notch 12 </ b> D into which the protrusion 22 </ b> A of the power supply terminal 22 is fitted in the insertion hole 12 </ b> C of the holding portion 12 into which the power supply terminal 22 is inserted. Thus, when the power feeding terminal 22 is inserted into the insertion hole 12C of the holding portion 12 of the clamp member 1C, the protrusion 22A can be inserted into the cutout portion 12D, so that the holding portion 12 is not easily detached and has an advantage of good appearance. is there.

(第4実施形態)
次に、本発明の第4実施形態について、図10から図13を参照して説明する。
上述した各実施形態によるクランプ部材1、1B、1Cにおいて、第1係合部11Aの係合歯13Aと第2係合部11Bの係合歯13Bを係合させるには、先端側の係合歯13A、13B同士のクランプは手動等、小さな力で仮締めを行い、その後のクランプはペンチ等の工具を用いて大きな力で係合させて全体をかしめて本締め(仮固定)する。複数の係合歯13A、13B同士における先端側の1山目の係合歯13A、13B同士の係合は工具を使用しないで、作業者の手動でできることが締め付け作業をスムーズに行う上で望ましい。
(Fourth embodiment)
Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the clamp members 1, 1 </ b> B, and 1 </ b> C according to the above-described embodiments, the engagement on the distal end side is used to engage the engagement teeth 13 </ b> A of the first engagement portion 11 </ b> A and the engagement teeth 13 </ b> B of the second engagement portion 11 </ b> B. The clamps between the teeth 13A and 13B are temporarily tightened with a small force such as manual operation, and the subsequent clamps are engaged with a large force using a tool such as pliers, and the whole is crimped and temporarily tightened (temporarily fixed). The engagement of the first engagement teeth 13A and 13B on the distal end side among the plurality of engagement teeth 13A and 13B is desirable for smooth tightening by an operator's manual operation without using a tool. .

ところで、第1係合部11Aの係合歯13Aと第2係合部11Bの係合歯13Bを係合させる際、締付帯部10の口径が大きくなるとカシメ戻りがないように各係合歯13A、13Bの山高さを高くすることが必要になる。一方で、作業者の手動によって先端側の係合歯13A、13B同士を係合させる力には限界がある。そのため、複数の係合歯13A,13B同士が同一形状の山高さであると、山高さが大きくなると最初の係合歯13A、13B同士の手動による係合が困難になる。
本実施形態によるクランプ部材1Dは、このような問題をも解決できるようしたものであり、上述した実施形態の部材、部品と同一または同様なものは同一符号を用いて説明する。
By the way, when engaging the engagement teeth 13A of the first engagement portion 11A and the engagement teeth 13B of the second engagement portion 11B, the engagement teeth are set so that there is no caulking return when the diameter of the fastening band portion 10 is increased. It is necessary to increase the peak height of 13A and 13B. On the other hand, there is a limit to the force with which the engaging teeth 13A and 13B on the distal end side can be manually engaged by the operator. Therefore, when the plurality of engaging teeth 13A and 13B have the same height, the first engaging teeth 13A and 13B are difficult to engage manually.
The clamp member 1D according to the present embodiment can solve such a problem, and the same or similar members and parts as those of the above-described embodiment will be described using the same reference numerals.

図10に示す本第4実施形態によるクランプ部材1Dでは、略C字状の締付帯部10の両端部に設けた第1係合部11Aの複数の係合歯13Aと第2係合部11Bの複数の係合歯13Bとが互いに係合可能である。本実施形態では、図11、図12に示すように、第1係合部11Aにおける先端側から後端側の係合歯13Aを便宜的に13Aa、13Ab、13Ac、…とし、第2係合部11Bにおける先端側から後端側の係合歯13Bを便宜的に13Ba、13Bb、13Bc、…とする。
そして、第1係合部11Aの複数の係合歯13Aa、13Ab、13Ac、…における先端側の1山目の係合歯13Aaは後続の2山目以降の係合歯13Ab、13Ac、…より高さを低く形成した。例えば、2山目以降の係合歯13Ab,13Ac、…の山高さを1mmとして、1山目の係合歯13Aaの山高さをその1/2の0.5mmに形成した。なお、第2係合部11Bの係合歯13Ba、13Bb、13Bcの山高さは同一でよい。また、1山目の係合歯13Aaの山高さは他の係合歯13Ab、…の1/2の高さに限定されることなく、適宜の割合に形成してよい。
In the clamp member 1D according to the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 10, a plurality of engagement teeth 13A and a second engagement portion 11B of the first engagement portion 11A provided at both ends of the substantially C-shaped fastening band portion 10. The plurality of engaging teeth 13B can be engaged with each other. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the engagement teeth 13A from the front end side to the rear end side in the first engagement portion 11A are referred to as 13Aa, 13Ab, 13Ac,. For the sake of convenience, the engagement teeth 13B from the front end side to the rear end side in the portion 11B are referred to as 13Ba, 13Bb, 13Bc,.
The first engagement teeth 13Aa on the distal end side of the plurality of engagement teeth 13Aa, 13Ab, 13Ac,... Of the first engagement portion 11A are the following engagement teeth 13Ab, 13Ac,. The height was formed low. For example, the crest height of the engagement teeth 13Ab, 13Ac,... After the second crest is 1 mm, and the crest height of the engagement teeth 13Aa of the first crest is formed to 0.5 mm of 1/2. In addition, the peak heights of the engagement teeth 13Ba, 13Bb, and 13Bc of the second engagement portion 11B may be the same. Further, the height of the first engagement teeth 13Aa is not limited to the height of 1/2 of the other engagement teeth 13Ab, but may be formed at an appropriate ratio.

そのため、作業者が第1係合部11Aと第2係合部11Bを係合させる際、第1係合部11Aの最初の係合歯13Aaは山高さが低いため、比較的小さな力で第2係合部11Bの最初の係合歯13Baと手動で係合できる。その後は、工具を用いて係合させるため、山高さが大きくても係合歯13Aa、13Ab、13Ac、…と係合歯13Ba、13Bb、13Bc、…を大きな力で係合させることができる。手動で係合歯13Aaと係合歯13Baとを係合すると操作部14A、14Bが位置決めされるので、ペンチ等で容易に操作部14A、14Bを締めることができる。   Therefore, when the worker engages the first engagement portion 11A and the second engagement portion 11B, the first engagement teeth 13Aa of the first engagement portion 11A have a low peak height, and therefore the first engagement teeth 13Aa are relatively small in force. 2 The first engaging tooth 13Ba of the engaging portion 11B can be manually engaged. After that, since it is engaged using a tool, the engaging teeth 13Aa, 13Ab, 13Ac,... And the engaging teeth 13Ba, 13Bb, 13Bc,. When the engaging teeth 13Aa and the engaging teeth 13Ba are manually engaged, the operation portions 14A and 14B are positioned. Therefore, the operation portions 14A and 14B can be easily tightened with pliers or the like.

図12は第1係合部11Aの1山目の係合歯13Aaに代えて、第2係合部11Bの1山目の係合歯13Baを2山目以降の係合歯13Bb、…の山高さ(例えば1mm)より低く、例えば1/2の高さ(例えば5mm)に形成したものである。この場合でも同様に、第1係合部11Aの1山目の係合歯13Aaと第2係合部11Bの1山目の係合歯13Baを手動の小さな力で係合でき、その後の係合は工具を用いて大きな力で行うことができる。
或いは、第1係合部11Aの1山目の係合歯13Aaと第2係合部11Bの1山目の係合歯13Baの両方を、それぞれ2山目以降の係合歯13Ab、…、係合歯13Bb、…より低く形成してもよい。この場合には各係合歯13Aa、13Baの山高さは他の山高さの1/2より大きく形成することが、係合を確実にするために好ましい。
In FIG. 12, instead of the first tooth 13Aa of the first engaging portion 11A, the first tooth 13Ba of the second engaging portion 11B is replaced with the second and subsequent engaging teeth 13Bb,. The height is lower than the peak height (for example, 1 mm), for example, 1/2 height (for example, 5 mm). Similarly in this case, the engagement tooth 13Aa of the first mountain of the first engagement portion 11A and the engagement tooth 13Ba of the first mountain of the second engagement portion 11B can be engaged with a small manual force, and the subsequent engagement Can be done with a large force using a tool.
Alternatively, both the engagement teeth 13Aa of the first crest of the first engagement portion 11A and the engagement teeth 13Ba of the first crest of the second engagement portion 11B are respectively connected to the engagement teeth 13Ab of the second crest and later. The engagement teeth 13Bb, ... may be formed lower. In this case, it is preferable to form the peak height of each engagement tooth 13Aa, 13Ba larger than 1/2 of the other peak heights in order to ensure the engagement.

第4実施形態によるクランプ部材1Dについて図11の構成で試験した。
他の実施形態のクランプ部材1,1B、1C等では、第1係合部11Aの複数の係合歯13Aと第2係合部11Bの複数の係合歯13Bが略同一山高さ(1mm)であった。この場合、1山目の係合歯13Aと係合歯13B同士の係合力を計測すると150Nであり、手動で係合できる係合力の限界である約100Nを超える力を要していた。
これに対し、本第4実施形態によるクランプ部材1Dでは、最初の係合歯13Aaと係合歯13Baの手動による係合は80Nの力で係合できた。そのため、第1係合部11Aの複数の係合歯13Aと第2係合部11Bの複数の係合歯13Bの山高さに関わらず、最初の係合歯13Aaと係合歯13B同士をスムーズに仮締めできる。
The clamp member 1D according to the fourth embodiment was tested with the configuration of FIG.
In the clamp members 1, 1B, 1C, etc. of other embodiments, the plurality of engagement teeth 13A of the first engagement portion 11A and the plurality of engagement teeth 13B of the second engagement portion 11B are substantially the same height (1 mm). Met. In this case, when the engagement force between the engagement teeth 13A and the engagement teeth 13B of the first mountain is measured, it is 150 N, and a force exceeding about 100 N which is the limit of the engagement force that can be manually engaged is required.
On the other hand, in the clamp member 1D according to the fourth embodiment, the first manual engagement of the engaging teeth 13Aa and the engaging teeth 13Ba can be engaged with a force of 80N. Therefore, the first engagement teeth 13Aa and the engagement teeth 13B can be smoothly connected regardless of the height of the plurality of engagement teeth 13A of the first engagement portion 11A and the plurality of engagement teeth 13B of the second engagement portion 11B. Can be temporarily tightened.
