[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hanging device useful for hanging a clothes hanger or the like on a dwelling house or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When drying laundry or the like indoors using a clothes hanger, a hook portion of the hanger is hung on an end of a Kamoi. However, the hanging stability of the hook with the end of the Kamoi is small, so that the hanger tends to fall off frequently. In particular, when a sliding door, a sliding door, a sliding door, or the like is moved along the groove of the Kamoi, the hanger comes off easily due to contact.

In order to prevent the hanger from falling off, a hook having a hook is attached to the side of the dwelling of the dwelling using an adhesive or a screw, and the hook of the hanger is hung on the hook. It is also possible to do. However, since the hook is fixed, the mounting position of the hook cannot be freely changed. In addition, when the mounting position of the hook is changed, the adhesive and the screw hole remain on the side of the gate, which impairs the appearance.

Further, a pair of holding pieces rotatable about a shaft, a spring for urging one end of the holding piece in a closing direction, and a hook attached to an end of the one holding piece. Washing scissors composed of a part and the like are also known. However, when the convex portion of the gate is held by the washing scissors and the hanger is hung on the hook portion, the load of the hanger and the laundry is applied to one of the holding pieces. For this reason, a moment for tilting the hanging tool acts on the Kamoi, and the hanging tool easily falls off the Kamoi.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a latch which can be easily and reliably attached to a dram and the like, and can be prevented from falling off from the dram and the like.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a latch which can prevent a moment of tilting the latch against a duck or the like and can stably lock a hanger or the like for a long period of time. .

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a pair of holding pieces rotatable about a shaft, and biases one end of these holding pieces in a closing direction. And a hook means extending from the side of the shaft and being rotatable 360 ° outside the holding piece.

[0008] In the above-mentioned hooking device, it is preferable that a non-slip means is provided on the inner surface on the closed side of the pair of holding pieces. Also,
Preferably, a locking member is provided on the open side of at least one of the holding pieces so as to be able to advance and retreat to the side, and the hook means is rotatable 360 ° outside the pair of holding pieces. A ring portion extending from both sides of the shaft and rotatable 360 ° outside the pair of holding pieces;
It is preferable that the shaft portion is constituted by a rotatable or rotatable hook piece at a ring portion facing the shaft. This hook piece
The ring portion facing the shaft may be constituted by a plurality of hook pieces each having a rotatable or rotatable rod portion.

[0009]

According to the hook having the above construction, one end of the pair of holding pieces rotatable about the shaft can be closed by the urging force of the urging means. For this reason, the stopper can be attached by clamping a convex portion formed on the lower surface of the headgate by the closed side of the pair of clamping pieces.

[0010] Further, a hook means is provided outside the holding piece.
Since it is rotatable by 60 °, when a hanger or the like is hooked on the hook portion, the load direction by the hanger can be made to coincide with the hanging direction of the hook means, and the direction in which the hook is inclined with respect to the gate Can be prevented from acting on the latch. With the latch having a non-slip means on the inner surface on the closed side of the pair of clamps, it is possible to further prevent the latch from dropping off from the clamped portion such as the lower convex portion of the headgate.

Further, in the case of a hook provided with a locking member which can be moved forward and backward, the locking member can be locked to an end portion such as a gate. In this case, a hanger or the like can be hooked on the hook means by rotating the hook means rotatable 360 ° to the closing side of the hook outside the pair of holding pieces. In addition, as described above, since the hook means is rotatable, it is possible to prevent a moment in the direction in which the hook is inclined with respect to the duck or the like from acting on the hook.

When the hook means is composed of a ring portion and a hook piece, the ring portion can be turned to either the closed side or the open side of the pair of holding pieces. Therefore, it is also possible to mount the holding portion by holding the holding portion on the closed side of the pair of holding pieces, or to mount the hook by locking the locking member to the locking portion. In addition, when opening and closing an external force, for example, a sliding door of a Kamoi gate in a state where a hanger or the like is hung on the hook piece, even if the sliding door or the like comes into contact with the hanger, it is possible to prevent the hook and the hanger from falling off. That is, since the hook piece is rotatable or rotatable at the ring portion facing the shaft, even if the sliding door or the like contacts the hanger, the rotatable or rotatable hanger and the hook piece can be retracted. For this reason, it is possible to suppress the dropping force from acting on the hook.

In the case where the hook piece is constituted by a plurality of hook pieces having a rod portion which is rotatable or rotatable relative to each other in a ring portion facing the shaft, it is possible to prevent the hanger or the like from falling off as described above. In addition, a hanger or the like can be hung on each hook piece.

[0014]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a latch according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the latch of FIG. 1 taken along the line II-II.

The hook has a pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b which can rotate about the shaft 1 as a fulcrum, and these holding pieces 2a and 2b.
a leaf spring 6 for urging one end of b in the closing direction
And

More specifically, the pair of holding pieces 2a, 2
At a substantially middle portion of the b, bulging portions 3a and 3b are formed facing each other. The shaft 1 can be slidably mounted on the bulging portions 3a and 3b, and holding pieces 2a and 2b are provided. Curved concave portions 4a and 4b for engagement so as to be relatively rotatable are formed. Therefore, the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b are rotatable about the shaft 1 as a fulcrum.

On the closed side of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b, engaging projections 5a and 6b for engaging engaging portions 6a and 6b formed at both ends of a substantially arc-shaped leaf spring 6 are provided. 5b are formed. Engaging portions 6a, 6b at both ends of leaf spring 6
And the engaging projections 5a and 5b of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b are engaged with each other, thereby preventing displacement of both ends of the leaf spring 6. Therefore, one end of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b is urged in the closing direction and the other end is urged in the opening direction by the leaf spring 6.

The shaft 1, a pair of holding pieces 2a, 2b
The leaf spring 6 can be disassembled and assembled.

On the inner surfaces on the closed side of the pair of holding pieces 2a, 2b, non-slip members 7a, made of an elastic material such as rubber, are provided.
7b is attached. In addition, the non-slip members 7a, 7
A plurality of grooves 8a and 8b extending in the width direction are formed on the surface of b, and the opposing surface is formed to have a curved cross section bulging inward. Therefore, the pair of holding pieces 2
When the clamped portions such as the convex portions formed between the grooves of the gate are clamped from below at the closed-side ends of a and 2b, the non-slip members 7a and 7b are elastically deformed by the urging force of the leaf spring 6, and The clamping force can be increased by increasing the frictional resistance by the grooves 8a and 8b. Moreover, the non-slip members 7a,
Since the opposed surface of 7b is curved, even if the width of the convex portion of the duck is different, the non-slip members 7a and 7b can be brought into surface contact, and the contact area can be increased.

On both sides of the shaft 1, flanges 9a and 9b are formed to prevent the shaft 1 from coming off. From one flange 9a, a hook portion 10 that can rotate 360 ° outside the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b extends. The hook portion 10 is connected to the holding piece 2 by the flange 9a.
It comprises a rod portion 10a extending along the side surface of each of the rods 10a and 10b, and a semicircular arc-shaped hook piece 10b connected to the rod portion 10a and curved inward.

The hook piece 10b rotates outside the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b, that is, in a range of 360 ° that does not contact the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b. The lowermost position of the inner surface of the hook piece 10b is located in a line perpendicular to the axis of the shaft 1 and substantially passing the center of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b in the width direction. Therefore, the hook piece 1
Even if a hanger or the like is hung on 0b, a pair of holding pieces 2a,
The moment in the direction of tilting 2b does not act on hook piece 10b.

Further, a locking member 11 is provided at the other end of one of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b, that is, the end urged in the opening direction.
In this example, the locking member 11 is formed in an L-shaped cross section, and one locking piece 11a advances and retreats laterally from a slit-shaped through hole formed in the width direction of the holding piece 2a. The locking piece 11b is located inside the holding piece 2a.
1a is regulated. Since the locking piece 11a is movable forward and backward, the open side of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b is pressed or pressed to hold the holding portion on the closed side of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b. There is no hindrance.

The end of the movable locking piece 11a restricts the locking piece 11a from falling inward.
The bent and bent end portions are formed in a saw-like shape in order to securely engage with a hooking portion such as the upper end portion of the side surface of the duck.

When such a hook is used, even if a hanger or the like is hooked, the hook can be stably hooked to a duck or the like. Hereinafter, a method of using the hook will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a use state of the hook shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and FIG. 4 is a view showing FIGS.
It is the schematic which shows the use condition of the latch shown in FIG. In this example, a state where the sliding door of the Kamoi 50 is opened is shown.

As shown in FIG. 3, a pair of holding pieces 2
By closing the open sides of a and 2b against the resilience of the leaf spring 6, the closed side is opened, and the convex part 51 on the lower surface of the gate 50 is held by the opened closed end. . Since the non-slip members 7a and 7b are attached to the inner surfaces of the closed-side ends of the pair of holding pieces 2a and 2b, the hook can be firmly attached to the convex portion 51 on the lower surface of the gate 50. . When the hook is attached in a hanging state from the convex portion 51,
The hook 10 can be suspended from the shaft 1. When the hook 41 of the hanger 40 connected to the hanger main body 43 via the rotary joint 42 is hooked on the hook portion 10, a load acts on the hook portion 10 and the shaft 1 of the hook.

However, as shown in FIG. 3, since the hook portion 10 extends from the shaft 1 and can swing, even if a load is applied from a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the shaft 1,
It is possible to prevent the generation of the moment M1 of tilting the hook with respect to the convex portion 51 of the Kamoi 50. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the load by the hanger 40 is
a, 2b in the width direction and the lowermost end E of the hook piece 10b.
And acts in the direction d. In this case, even if a moment M2 is applied to the hanger 40 in the axial direction of the shaft 1 or in a direction perpendicular to the rod 10a, the hanger 40 can swing with respect to the hook piece 10b. , The moment M2 of tilting the hook is prevented from being transmitted to the hook. For this reason, even if the hanger 40 is hung, it is possible to prevent the hanger from dropping out of the gate 50. FIG.
FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing another use state of the latch shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. In this example, a state in which the sliding door 52 of the Kamoi 50 is closed is shown.

In a state where the sliding door 52 of the gate 50 is closed, the locking piece 11a provided to be able to move forward and backward on one of the holding pieces 2a may be protruded and locked to the upper end 53 of the side face of the gate 50. In this case, the closed sides of the pair of holding pieces 2a, 2b face downward, contrary to the above. The hook 41 of the hanger 40 is hooked on the hook portion 10 of the hook as described above.

Note that the locking member that can move forward and backward to the side of the holding piece does not need to have an L-shaped cross section, and it is sufficient that the locking member can be locked to the upper end of the side surface of the gate. For example, the locking member includes a flat locking piece that can move forward and backward to the side of the holding piece, a restricting section that restricts the locking piece from falling out of the side, and an inward direction of the holding piece. And a regulating unit for regulating the falling off of the device.
At the outer end of the preferred locking member, a locking portion bent in the direction of the closing side of the holding piece is formed in order to securely and firmly lock the upper end of the side wall of the gate, etc. . The end of the locking portion may be formed in a saw-like shape, or may be formed with a protrusion or a convex portion, in order to enhance the locking property with the upper end portion of the side wall of the duck.

The locking member may be swingable to the closing side and / or the opening side of the holding piece as long as the locking member can be locked to the upper end portion of the side surface of the gate. A preferred locking member is restricted from moving to the open side on the side of the holding piece, and is swingable to the closed side of the holding piece.

The hook means of the hook may extend from at least one side of the shaft and be rotatable 360 ° outside the holding piece. Also, the hook means need not be formed integrally with the shaft.

FIG. 6 is a schematic side view showing a hook according to another embodiment of the present invention. The same elements as those of the above-described embodiment will be denoted by the same reference numerals.

In this example, a through hole is formed in the projecting portion 20 projecting from one side of the shaft 1, and the rod portion 10a of the hook portion 10 passes through this through hole. Also, the rod 1
0a has a flange 21 that can contact the lower surface of the protrusion 20.
Are formed, and a flange 22 is also formed at the end of the rod portion 10a. Therefore, the hook part 10 is relatively rotatable around the axis of the rod part 10a.

When such a hook is used, a hanger in which the hook and the hanger main body are not connected to each other is hung on the hook piece 10b of the hook portion 10 by a rotary connection as in the above-described embodiment. Even if the sliding door
The hook 10 of the hook rotates about the axis of the rod 10a,
It can be evacuated from external forces. Therefore, the latch does not fall off the sill or the like due to the opening / closing operation of the sliding door or the like.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the washer may be prevented from being detached by using a washer or a nut instead of the flange 22.

The hook means extends from both sides of the shaft,
Further, it may be constituted by a ring portion rotatable by 360 ° outside the pair of holding pieces, and a hook piece rotatable or rotatable by the ring portion facing the shaft.
