[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an adjusting mechanism of a gutter receiving bracket which can support a gutter at a predetermined position according to a flow gradient of an eave.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A gutter receiving fitting which is attached to a fixing member made of a plate-like piece so that the holding member can be freely rotated and slidably attached to the fixing member so that the supporting position of the holding member with respect to the fixing member can be adjusted is, for example, an actual gutter receiving fitting. No. 63-195026, Heikai 2-
It is generally known from, for example, US Pat.

[0003]

In such a conventional gutter receiving fitting, a fixing member and a holding member are connected by tightening a screw. In particular, a method of manually operating a wing nut is generally used. However, it takes time and effort to fit the wing nut on the bolt, and there is a problem in terms of safety and workability because working at a high place involves danger. In addition, there are many parts and there is a problem in cost.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and has as its object to use a wing nut by tightening a screw and a tightening means by other auxiliary tools. There is no need to provide a gutter receiving bracket adjustment mechanism that can be operated quickly and easily with one-touch operation, secures the lock position even by vibration, etc., has a simple configuration, has a small number of parts, and can be implemented at low cost. It is assumed that.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the adjusting mechanism of the gutter receiving bracket according to the present invention comprises an ear engaging portion 5 for engaging and holding the edge 23, 24 of the gutter 20 at both ends. 6, a holding member 7 made of a plate-like piece formed with
And a fixing member 10 made of a similar plate-like piece, which is attached so as to freely rotate and slide freely, and is vertically overlapped with each other and loosely connected with a fixing shaft 8 such as a rivet through the elongated hole 1 on the fixing member 10 side. An inclined guide groove 13 that allows sliding when the holding member 7 is fitted to the sliding surface of the holding member 7 with respect to the fixed member 10 in an inclined manner with respect to the axis; The cam members 14 and 15, and the fixing member 10 in the slide position and the slide lock position.
And a positioning projection 16 that engages with the projection.

The holding member 7 with respect to the fixing member 10
The regulating pin 9 for regulating the turning angle of the
It is preferable to be fitted in the arc-shaped long hole 11 on the holding member side so as to be freely slidable up and down.

[0007]

When the holding member 7 is rotated to the left (counterclockwise direction A) from the state shown in FIG. 2, the state shown in FIG. That is, the holding member 7 is
On the other hand, the rotation is made to the left with the stop shaft 8 as a fulcrum. By the rotation of the holding member 7, the fixing member 10 fits into the inclined guide groove 13, and is free to slide in the longitudinal direction of the groove. Therefore, in this state, if the holding member 7 is pulled or pushed forward (arrow B) or backward (arrow C), the length can be adjusted within the range of the long hole 1. After the position is determined, the holding member 7 is then moved rightward (arrow d) at that position.
When the holding member 7 is rotated to the opposite direction, the holding member 7 is rotated in the same direction with the stop shaft 8 as a fulcrum, and detaches from the inclined guide groove 13 and rides on the fixed cam portions 14 on both sides of the groove. As shown in FIG.

During the above operation, in the slide lock state shown in FIG. 2, since the positioning projection 16 is engaged with the side edge 1 'of the long hole 1, the holding member 7 freely moves freely due to vibration or the like. To prevent the lock from coming off. When the holding member 7 is forcibly rotated to the left (arrow A), the projection 16 gets over the side edge 1 'of the elongated hole 1 and is disengaged.

When the holding member 7 is turned to the left in the sliding position shown in FIG. 3, the projection 16 passes through the bottom of the fixing member 10 and contacts the side edge 10 '. Therefore, at the same time when the pressing on the upper surface is released, the inside of the projection 16 is positioned and the slide is allowed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A holding member 7 is formed by bending a metal plate-like piece having a constant narrow width to integrally form a front ear engaging portion 5 at one end and a rear ear engaging portion 6 at the other end. The shapes of the ear engaging portions 5 and 6 may be other than those illustrated. The inclined guide groove 13 is formed by recessing the horizontal portion 10a of the holding member 7 shallowly. Also, fixed cam portions 14 on both sides of the inclined guide groove 13.
14 is formed in a step shape, and when the holding member 7 and the fixing member 10 are straightened, the bottom surface of the fixing member 10 rides thereon, and furthermore, both side edges of the fixing member 10
4a and 14b are contacted to prevent further rotation.

The fixing member 10 is formed to be slightly narrower than the holding member 7 and has the elongated hole 1 formed at the center. A stop shaft 8 and a regulating pin 9 are fitted into the elongated hole 1, and the stop shaft 8 is integrally joined to the two members 7 and 10 by loosening using rivets. When the regulating pin 9 is elongated and its head is lifted up with its head, the engagement with the side plate of the gutter is released, and when the regulating pin 9 is dropped downward, the engagement is performed. The fixing member 10 is fixed to the vertical wall surface 27 or the like by engaging the leg ∂ portion 10b with the mounting bracket 25. A scale 17 for adjusting the length is provided on the upper surface or the side surface of the fixing member 10. This scale may be provided on the holding member 7 side.

The positioning projection 16 is formed at a position behind the surface of the one fixed cam portion 15 on the surface of the holding member 7.
Its shape is triangular when viewed from a plane and has a height that is shallower than the depth of the long hole 1, and the corner of the upper surface is cut and rounded.

[0013]

[Effects of the Invention] Since the present invention is configured as described above, the holding member can be free or fixedly locked with respect to the fixing member only by twisting the holding member to tilt right or left. In the state of, the length can be adjusted with one touch by freely pulling out and pushing,
In particular, at the slide lock position, the holding member is fixed moderately by the engagement between the positioning projections and the long holes, so that a situation in which the lock is released during the work due to vibration or the like and the work piece rotates freely is prevented. . In addition, the workability and safety are greatly improved as compared with the conventional apparatus, and since the number of parts is small, the apparatus can be implemented at low cost, which is advantageous in cost.
