JP3168718U - A lightweight and removable fall-prevention device that is attached to the top of the handrail to prevent an accident where an infant falls on the ground over the railing of a balcony fence in a high-rise apartment building - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simple and reliable fall prevention device from a balcony for a resident of a high-rise house having an infant. SOLUTION: A thin metal plate is used as a material, and the length thereof is almost equal to the handrail of a fence 2 of a balcony, but the width of the material 4 is cut and bent so as to be sufficiently wider than the handrail, and the handrail 3 is used. Attach it so that it covers the top. This prevents the small hands of the infant from grasping the handrail, while attaching a secondary material 5 made by bending a narrow metal plate of the same length to the bottom of the fence, and attaching these two to the bottom of the fence as vertical materials at both ends of the fence. 6 are connected at right angles to strengthen the whole and form a fall prevention device.

Description

  In high-rise apartments generally called condominiums, when a balcony is placed as an observation deck for each house, a structure that has a fence to prevent the fall at the tip has been the mainstream and has not been a problem. . However, according to a recent newspaper report, the infant climbed the railing of the fence, climbed over and fell to the ground and died. In the future, in order to prevent similar accidents, there is a need for a danger prevention device that has a structure that cannot be grasped by an infant's hand above the handrail of the fence and can be removed if it is no longer needed.

  Because this type of death is not a frequent occurrence, it cannot be pointed out that all or most of the balconies of high-rise apartment buildings are dangerous. However, according to the above-mentioned newspaper report, on September 6, 2010, a 3-year-old infant fell over the fence from the veranda on the 17th floor of a condominium in Morioka city. Necessary measures must be devised so that similar accidents do not recur.

  In high-rise apartments generally called apartments, balconies are often provided for outdoor bathing or as an observation deck. Make sure that accidents in which an infant falls over the fence at the tip of the fence do not recur.

  The main material of the present invention is a thin metal plate, the length of which is almost the same as that of a balcony fence handrail, but its width is slightly wider than that of the handrail, and it is attached to the handrail so that it is attached to the handrail. By preventing small hands from gripping it, while attaching the same length and narrow secondary material to the bottom of the fence, these two are connected vertically by auxiliary materials at both ends of the fence to strengthen the whole The problem can be solved.

  The present invention is sufficiently effective as a method to prevent an accident where the infant falls from the balcony in a family living in a high-rise apartment and raising an infant, and the cost of materials, processing, and local construction is also reasonable. Just do it.

  When an infant grows up and the present invention becomes unnecessary, the original beauty of the balcony can be restored by disassembling and removing it.

  After that, if another younger family is worried about the fall of an infant in the same apartment house, the company managing the apartment house will save and provide the disassembled and removed equipment. And can be reused.

It is a figure which shows the external appearance of the balcony of each residential area of a high-rise apartment house. It is the figure which expanded FIG. 1 and depicted the balcony, the fence, and its handrail. It is the figure which linked | related the situation which looked at the main material attached on the handrail perpendicularly from the upper direction, and the situation which looked at the main material, the submaterial, and the auxiliary material horizontally from the outside. It is an enlarged view which shows the cross section of the auxiliary material which connects the main material attached to the uppermost part of a handrail, the submaterial attached to the lowest part of a fence, and those from the outside. In FIG. 4, the cross section of the handrail is assumed to be a rectangle, but here, the application range of the present invention is expanded by adding a case where the cross section is an ellipse.

  The infant fall accident described at the beginning as a newspaper report is an event in Morioka City far away, so it is not appropriate to photograph or illustrate the high-rise housing as the subject of the present invention. Instead, in the high-rise housing observed in Kanagawa Prefecture where the creator resides, an example in which a balcony and a fall prevention fence are provided in each residential area is shown, and the upper layer is shown in FIG.

  In order to show the copied balcony in more detail, a part of FIG. 1 is enlarged and shown in FIG. In the balcony fence of this example, a large number of thin pipe-shaped building materials were arranged on the upper and lower sides so as to horizontally lay strong and long building materials and connect them vertically.

  In order to carry out the present invention on the premise of this, the main material described in [0004] is temporarily attached to the upper side of the fence, and the lower material has the same length as the main material but a narrow width. It is possible to stabilize and reinforce the entire structure by temporarily attaching and temporarily fixing them, and connecting the four ends of them together with two auxiliary materials vertically. In order to illustrate this, the situation seen vertically from the top of the balcony and the situation seen horizontally from the outside are arranged so as to correspond to each other, as shown in FIG.

  The outline of the construction shown in the vertical direction and horizontal direction in FIG. 3 is drawn as a cross-sectional view shown in the horizontal direction in FIG. 4 and the scale is greatly enlarged so that the main material is placed on the upper side of the fence. Clarified the situation where the material is underneath the bottom of the fence and the auxiliary material connects them.

  The fence shown in Fig. 4 is based on some high-rise houses observed in Kanagawa Prefecture, and the cross section of the handrail is assumed to be rectangular. However, the cross section of the handrail may be oval or circular. In that case, you must work with your metal processor to provide the main and sub-materials that fit it. In consideration of the possibility, FIG. 5 was added.
