(Matching direction), vertical direction, etc. are specified. Further, in some figures, some of the detailed codes attached to the other figures are omitted.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 1 will be described.
The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is used for the eaves gutter 3 fixed to the eaves tip 2. The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 has a fixing portion 11 fixed to the eaves tip 2, an abutting portion 12 that abuts on the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 through which rainwater or the like flows in the eaves gutter 3, and the fixing portion 11 and the abutting portion 12. It has a connecting portion 13 for connecting to and.
The details will be described below.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcement 1 is formed by bending one strip. In this embodiment, the strip is made of a metal material such as stainless steel. The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 may be formed from a strip made of another metal material or resin material without being limited to this. Further, the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 may be formed of a plurality of strips, or may be formed of a material other than the strips.

The fixing portion 11 is formed so as to extend upward from the lower end portion 11a. The fixing portion 11 is formed with a plurality of insertion holes 11b at the lower portion into which a fixing tool 5 such as a screw or a nail is inserted. In the present embodiment, two insertion holes 11b and 11b are formed in the lower portion of the fixing portion 11 side by side in the width direction. The connecting portion 13 is formed so as to extend forward from the upper end portion 11c of the fixing portion 11.

The connecting portion 13 has a supporting portion 14 and an arm portion 17. The support portion 14 has an inclined portion 15 extending forward from the upper end portion 11c of the fixed portion 11 and extending forward so as to be substantially perpendicular to the fixed portion 11 from the front end portion 15a of the inclined portion 15. It is composed of a horizontal portion 16 that is stretched. The arm portion 17 is formed by sloping forward from the front end portion 14a (front end portion of the horizontal portion 16) of the support portion 14. Then, the contact portion 12 is formed by extending forward from the lower end portion 17b of the arm portion 17. The contact portion 12 is formed so as to be located above the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11 when the horizontal portion 16 is arranged in a horizontal state. The connecting portion 13 is formed in the shape as described above so that when the connecting portion 13 is fixed to the eaves gutter 3 described later, the connecting portion 13 avoids contact with the rear ear 33 of the eaves gutter 3.

One reinforcing rib 18 is formed from the lower part of the arm portion 17 to the rear portion of the contact portion 12. As a result, the bent portion between the arm portion 17 and the contact portion 12 is reinforced by the rib 18. Reinforcing ribs 18 may be appropriately formed in other parts of the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1. Further, the reinforcing rib 18 is not limited to the form shown in the figure. For example, ribs 18 of the plate body may be formed on both side ends of the arm portion 17 and the contact portion 12.

Next, a method of installing the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 formed as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b).
The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is suitable for retrofitting to the eaves gutter 3 already fixed to the eaves tip 2. The eaves gutter 3 is a member having a substantially U-shaped cross section with an open upper portion, and is fixed to the eaves 2 via a plurality of eaves gutter supports 4 installed side by side in the width direction of the eaves 2. In the present embodiment, the eaves gutter support 4 is a hanger that holds the front ears 32 and the back ears 33 of the eaves gutter 3 and suspends and supports the eaves gutter 3. The eaves gutter windproof reinforcement 1 is fixed between a plurality of eaves gutter supports 4 arranged in the width direction.

As shown in FIG. 2A, in the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1, the rear surface 11d of the fixing portion 11 abuts on the eaves tip 2, and the abutting portion 12 abuts on the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3. Arranged to touch. Since the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11 is located below the contact portion 12, as shown in FIG. 2B, the eaves gutter 3 is viewed from the front and below the eaves gutter 3. The insertion holes 11b, 11b of the fixing portion 11 are exposed so as to be visible to the operator. The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is fixed to the eaves tip 2 by inserting the fixing tools 5 and 5 such as screws and nails from the front toward the insertion holes 11b and 11b.

When the fixing tool 5 is inserted into the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11, it is desirable that the contact portion 12 presses the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3 from above. By doing so, the wind resistance of the eaves gutter 3 can be further enhanced against a wind that blows up from below. Further, when the contact portion 12 comes into contact with the bottom surface 31a of the eaves gutter 3, an adhesive or the like may be applied to the lower surface of the contact portion 12 that contacts the bottom surface 31a.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcement 1 is not fixed to the eaves gutter support 4 like the windproof support members of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2. In the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of the present invention, the fixing portion 11 is fixed to the eaves tip 2 in a state where the abutting portion 12 is in contact with the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3, so that the eaves gutter 3 is fixed. Wind resistance can be improved.

Therefore, the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 can be used for various eaves gutters 3 regardless of the eaves gutter support tool 4 that fixes the eaves gutter 3. In a state where the contact portion 12 is in contact with the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3, the rear surface 11d of the fixing portion 11 is in contact with the eaves tip 2, and the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11 is contacted. It suffices if the fixing tool 5 can be inserted from the front. Further, as described above, the connecting portion 13 of the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is between the support portion 14 and the rear ear 33 of the eaves gutter 3 so as not to come into contact with the rear ears 33 of various eaves gutters 3 having different shapes. It is formed by bending so that a gap with a margin is formed.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of the present embodiment is not limited to the shape as described above. For example, in the present embodiment, the inclined portion 15 is formed from the upper end portion 11c of the fixing portion 11, but the horizontal portion 16 extends forward substantially perpendicularly to the fixing portion 11 from the upper end portion 11c of the fixing portion 11. The support portion 14 having no inclined portion 15 may be formed. Further, the arm portion 17 may be formed without the support portion 14 by extending from the upper end portion 11c of the fixing portion 11 so as to descend forward and incline. Further, the fixing portion 11 is not limited to the one shown in the figure as long as the insertion hole 11b is below the contact portion 12.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 may be designed so that only the contact portion 12 comes into contact with the eaves gutter 3 and the other parts do not come into contact with the various eaves gutters 3. Further, the contact portion 12 is preferably formed so as to be located near the middle of the bottom surface 31a of various eaves gutters 3 in the front-rear direction. By doing so, it is possible to prevent a part other than the contact portion 12 from coming into contact with the eaves gutter 3, so that the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 becomes more versatile, and the various eaves gutters 3 and the eaves gutter support 4 Can be used in combination.

Next, another embodiment of the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 will be described with reference to the drawings. The above-mentioned eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is set as the first embodiment, and the description of the parts common to the first embodiment will be omitted.
The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 3A is formed by extending the fixing portion 11 from the upper side to the lower side, and inclining downward from the lower end portion 11a of the fixing portion 11 to form the inclined portion 15. .. Then, the horizontal portion 16 is formed so as to extend forward from the front end portion 15a of the inclined portion 15 so as to be substantially perpendicular to the fixed portion 11. The support portion 14 is composed of the inclined portion 15 and the horizontal portion 16. Then, the arm portion 17 is formed by extending forward from the front end portion 14a of the support portion 14 in a downward inclination. The connecting portion 13 is formed by the supporting portion 14 and the arm portion 17. The contact portion 12 is bifurcated from the lower end portion 17b of the arm portion 17, and in FIG. 3A, the left contact portion 12 is 12A and the right contact portion 12 is 12B. One contact portion 12A is bent forward from the lower end portion 17b of the arm portion 17, and the other contact portion 12B is bent rearward from the lower end portion 17b of the arm portion 17.

The method of installing the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 3 (a) will be described with reference to FIG. 3 (b).
As shown in FIG. 3B, in the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1, the rear surface 11d of the fixing portion 11 abuts on the eaves tip 2, and the abutting portion 12 abuts on the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3. Arranged to touch. Then, in that state, the fixing tool 5 is inserted from the front toward the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11 located above the eaves gutter 3. As a result, the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is installed in a state where the eaves gutter 3 is firmly fixed, so that the wind resistance of the eaves gutter 3 can be improved.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 3A has a configuration in which the support portion 14 has an inclined portion 15, but the lower end portion 11a of the fixing portion 11 is substantially perpendicular to the fixing portion 11 forward. It may be a support portion 14 having no inclined portion 15 which is stretched to form a horizontal portion 16. Further, a reinforcing rib 18 may be formed on the abutting portion 12, and the abutting portion 12 is not limited to being divided into the abutting portions 12A and 12B, as in the first embodiment. The contact portion 12 may be undivided.

Next, the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4A will be described.
In the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4A, the connecting portion 13 is rotatably connected to the support portion 14 whose connecting portion 13 extends forward from the fixing portion 11 and one end portion 17a to the supporting portion 14. The contact portion 12 is formed on the other end portion 17b of the arm portion 17 having the arm portion 17 and the arm portion 17. The details will be described below.

In the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4A, a support portion 14 is formed from an upper end portion 11c of a fixing portion 11 extending in the vertical direction. The support portion 14 has an inclined portion 15 extending forward from the upper end portion 11c of the fixed portion 11 and extending forward so as to be substantially perpendicular to the fixed portion 11 from the front end portion 15a of the inclined portion 15. It is composed of a horizontal portion 16 that is stretched. Two arm portions 17A and 17B formed with a width dimension of about half the width dimension of the horizontal portion 16 are connected to the front end portion 14a (front end portion of the horizontal portion 16) of the support portion 14. The arms 17A and 17B are hinged so that their respective end portions 17Aa and 17Ba are rotatably connected to the front end portion 14a of the support portion 14. Hereinafter, in FIG. 4A, the left arm portion 17 is referred to as 17A, and the right arm portion 17 is referred to as 17B.

The other end 17Ab of one arm 17A is bent rearward to form a contact portion 12A. Further, the other end 17Bb of the other arm 17B is bent forward to form a contact portion 12B. When the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 described later is installed, the contact portion 12A is installed on the front side and the contact portion 12B is installed on the rear side.

The installation method of the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4A will be described with reference to FIG. 4B.
The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is arranged so that the rear surface 11d of the fixing portion 11 abuts on the eaves tip 2 and the abutting portions 12A and 12B abut on the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3. At this time, the other end 17Ab of the arm 17A is in contact with the front end 31b of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3, or the other end 17Bb of the arm 17B is the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3. The arm portions 17A and 17B are rotated around the front end portion 14a of the support portion 14 so as to be in contact with the rear end portion 31c. FIG. 4B shows a state in which the other end 17Bb of the arm 17B is in contact with the rear end 31c of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3. Then, from this state, the fixing tool 5 such as a screw or a nail is inserted from the front toward the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11, so that the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is fixed to the eaves tip 2.

The wind resistance of the eaves gutter 3 is further enhanced by abutting the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3 with the abutting portions 12A and 12B expanded back and forth. In FIG. 4B, since the arm portion 17B is in contact with the rear end portion 31c of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3 at the other end portion 17Bb, the arm portion 17B is wound up even if the wind blows up from below. It's getting harder. Further, when the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is fixed to the eaves tip 2, the arms 17A and 17B may be tied and fixed with a string-like body 6 such as a wire. Since the other end 17Bb of the arm 17B is in contact with the rear end 31c of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3 and is fixed by the string-like body 6, the arms 17A and 17B are blown from the bottom to the top. It is difficult to wind up even if it is blown up.

The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 in FIG. 4A is not limited to the above. For example, the arms 17A and 17B may be provided with detents to prevent rotation in opposite directions, respectively. Further, when the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is fixed to the eaves tip 2, a lock mechanism for fixing the rotation of the arms 17A and 17B may be provided. The contact portions 12A and 12B may be bent in the direction opposite to that in the front-rear direction with respect to FIG. 4A, respectively, or may be bent in either one of the front-rear directions. Further, the angle formed by the arm portions 17A and 17B and the contact portions 12A and 12B may be adjustable. In that case, for example, the arm portions 17A and 17B and the contact portions 12A and 12B are formed separately, and the contact portions 12A and 12B are centered on the other end portions 17Ab and 17Bb of the arm portions 17A and 17B. It may be connected by a hinge connection.

A modified example of the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4 (a) will be described with reference to FIG. 5 (a).
The eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 5A has substantially the same configuration as the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4 except for the configurations of the arm portions 17A and 17B and the contact portions 12A and 12B.
The arms 17A and 17B have notches 17Ac and 17Bc formed in the vicinity of the middle in the vertical direction from the outside in the width direction to the inside in the width direction. Then, the contact portions 12A and 12B having curved surface portions 12Aa and 12Ba are formed by being curved inward in the front-rear direction from the other end portions 17Ab and 17Bb of the arm portions 17A and 17B, respectively.

The method of installing the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 5 (a) will be described with reference to FIG. 5 (b).

Is placed in. At this time, the arm so that the contact portion 12A is in contact with the front wall portion 34 of the eaves gutter 3 or the contact portion 12B is in contact with the rear wall portion 35 of the eaves gutter 3. The portions 17A and 17B are rotated around the front end portion 14a of the support portion 14. FIG. 5B shows a state in which the contact portion 12B is in contact with the rear wall portion 35 of the eaves gutter 3. Then, from this state, the fixing tool 5 such as a screw or a nail is inserted from the front toward the insertion hole 11b of the fixing portion 11, so that the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 is fixed to the eaves tip 2.

Further, with the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 fixed to the eaves tip 2, the arms 17A and 17B are tied and fixed with a string-like body 6 such as a wire so that the arms 17A and 17B do not spread back and forth. May be good. Since the arms 17A and 17B are fixed by the string-shaped body 6, even if the wind blows up from below, the arms 17A and 17B are less likely to be rolled up. At this time, the string-shaped body 6 is locked to the notches 17Ac and 17Bc of the arm portions 17A and 17B, so that the string-shaped body 6 is hard to be detached from the arm portions 17A and 17B.

The contact portions 12A and 12B are part of the curved surface portions 12Aa and 12Ba regardless of the angles of the arm portions 17A and 17B with respect to the support portion 14 by forming the curved surface portions 12Aa and 12Ba curved in the front-rear direction. Is configured to come into contact with the bottom surface 31a of the flow path 31 of the eaves gutter 3. Further, even if the arm portions 17A and 17B are not provided with a lock mechanism or the like for fixing the rotation, the rotation of the arm portions 17A and 17B can be fixed by the string-shaped body 6.

Next, the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 6A will be described.
In the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 6A, the structure of the fixing portion 11 and the supporting portion 14 is substantially the same as that of the eaves gutter windproof reinforcing tool 1 of FIG. 4A. The arm portion 17 is composed of a single plate body, and one end portion 17a is hinged to the front end portion 14a of the support portion 14 and is rotatably connected. In the present embodiment, the other end 17b of the arm 17 is the contact portion 12, and the contact portion 12 is formed by extending from the other end 17b of the arm 17 as in other embodiments.
