Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view schematically showing an example of a hanger rack according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the hanger rack 1 includes two column members 20 and 30 that are spaced apart from each other in the horizontal direction. Each of the column members 20 and 30 extends in the vertical direction, and each can be adjusted for expansion and contraction.

  Furthermore, the hanger rack 1 has a suspension member 10 suspended between the upper ends of the two column members 20 and 30 in order to suspend a plurality of hangers (not shown). Furthermore, the hanger rack 1 has a base member 40 that supports the lower ends of the two column members 20 and 30.

  The main member constituting the hanger rack 1 is preferably a pipe member, for example, a pipe member made of stainless steel or the like. It may be partially made of plastic. The pipe members can be connected and fixed to each other using an appropriate connector as necessary for each part to be used, or can be welded.

  The two column members 20 and 30 that can be expanded and contracted can be independently adjusted in height. Therefore, the column member 20 includes an upper pipe 21 and a lower pipe 22 that are fitted to each other, and a fixture 23 that fixes the upper pipe 21 and the lower pipe 22 at a predetermined fitting position (this will be described in detail in FIG. 5). Explained). The upper pipe 21 has a smaller diameter than the lower pipe 22, and a lower portion of the upper pipe 21 is inserted from the upper end of the lower pipe 22 by a predetermined length. The upper pipe 21 has a plurality of height adjustment holes 24 that are arranged at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction and penetrate the pipe wall. By engaging the fixture 23 with the height adjusting hole 24, the column member 20 is fixed at a constant height.

  The same applies to the column member 30. The column member 30 includes an upper pipe 31 and a lower pipe 32 that are fitted to each other, and a fixture 33 that fixes the upper pipe 31 and the lower pipe 32 at a predetermined fitting position. Have. The upper pipe 31 has a smaller diameter than the lower pipe 32, and the lower portion of the upper pipe 31 is inserted from the upper end of the lower pipe 32 by a predetermined length. Although not visible in FIG. 1, the upper pipe 31 also has a plurality of height adjustment holes that are arranged at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction and penetrate the pipe wall. When the fixture 33 is engaged with the height adjusting hole, the column member 30 is fixed at a constant height.

  Therefore, the height of the two column members 20 and 30 can be varied. When the heights of the column member 20 and the column member 30 are different, the suspension member 10 can be inclined with respect to the horizontal direction. The suspension member 10 is a member extending linearly, and is formed with a plurality of locking projections 11 for hanging a hanger (not shown).

  Each end of the suspension member 10 and the upper ends of the column members 20 and 30 are connected so that the inclination angle of the suspension member 10 with respect to the horizontal direction can be changed. For this purpose, the connecting portions 50 and 60 between the ends of the suspension member 10 and the upper ends of the column members 20 and 30 respectively connect the ends of the suspension member 10 and the upper ends of the column members 20 and 30 so as to be rotatable. In addition, both can be fixed at a predetermined inclination angle of the suspension member 10. In FIG. 1, the rotation shafts in the connection portions 50 and 60 are indicated by reference signs A1 and A2, respectively.

  The base member 40 includes support pipes 41 and 42 that respectively support the lower ends of the column members 20 and 30, and a connecting rod member 43 that connects the lower ends of the two column members 20 and 30. The support pipes 41 and 42 are arranged perpendicular to a straight line connecting the lower ends of the column members 20 and 30, and the lower ends of the column members 20 and 30 are attached to the upper central surfaces of the support pipes 41 and 42. In the illustrated example, casters 44 are attached to the lower surfaces of both ends of each of the support pipes 41 and 42. Thereby, the hanger rack 1 can be easily moved on a floor surface.

  The connecting rod member 43 includes an outer pipe 43a and an inner pipe 43b that are fitted together. One end of the inner pipe 43b is inserted from one end of the outer pipe 43a and overlaps by a predetermined length. The other end of the inner pipe 43 b is attached to the lower end of the column member 20, and the other end of the outer pipe 43 a is attached to the lower end of the column member 30. With this configuration, the connecting rod member 43 can expand and contract in the longitudinal direction. Although not shown, it is preferable to provide means that can be fixed or released so that the outer pipe 43a and the inner pipe 43b do not move relative to each other at a predetermined position. Note that the configuration of the illustrated base member 40 is an example, and various configurations can be employed.

  FIG. 2 is a front view for explaining a change in the inclination angle of the suspension member in the hanger rack 1 of FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the inclination angle α of the suspension member 10 with respect to the horizontal direction can be changed by changing the difference in height between the column member 20 and the column member 30. In principle, the changeable range of the inclination angle α is possible from a position where α indicated by a dotted line is 0 ° (the suspension member 10 is in the horizontal direction) to a position where α is about 90 °. However, when the suspension member 10 is used in an inclined state, it is usually preferable that α is 30 ° to 45 °, and α is about 45 ° at the maximum.

  When the inclination angle α of the suspension member 10 changes, the interval between the column member 20 and the column member 30 of the hanger rack 1 changes. Therefore, the connecting rod member 43 that connects the lower ends of the column members 20 and 30 expands and contracts according to the inclination angle α of the suspension member 10. The distance between the column member 20 and the column member 30 is maximized at the position where the suspension member 10 indicated by the dotted line is in the horizontal direction, and the connecting rod member 43 is the longest (the inner pipe 43b protrudes from the outer pipe 43a to the maximum). .

  FIG. 3 is a schematic development view of the upper part of the hanger rack 1 of FIG. Here, as an example, the suspension member 10 is a plate member extending in a flat linear shape. The suspension member 10 is formed with a plurality of locking protrusions 11 that are arranged at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction and that face substantially upward. Each hanger (not shown) suspended from the inclined suspension member 10 can stay in a predetermined position by being hung on the locking projection 11. The shape of the suspension member 10 is not limited to this example.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of connection portions 50 and 60 between the ends of the suspension member 10 and the upper ends of the column members 20 and 30. At each end of the suspension member 10, shaft holes 12 and 13 which are through holes are formed. The upper ends of the column members 20 and 30 are processed into a flat plate shape as an example, and shaft holes 25 and 35 that are through holes are formed. In the connection portion 50, the screw 51 is inserted through the shaft hole 12 and the shaft hole 25, and the nut 52 is fastened to the screw 51. Similarly, in the connection portion 60, the screw 61 is inserted through the shaft hole 13 and the shaft hole 35, and the nut 62 is fastened to the screw 51. Here, as an example, the screws 51 and 61 are knurled screws, and the nuts 52 and 62 are knurled nuts. Thereby, the suspension member 10 and the column members 20 and 30 set to the predetermined inclination angle can be fixed immovably, and can be used stably.

  FIG. 4 is a schematic development view of the lower part of the hanger rack of FIG. 1. As described above, the connecting rod member 43 can be separated into the outer pipe 43a and the inner pipe 43b.

  The upper ends of the lower pipes 22 and 32 of the column members are formed as inclined surfaces rather than horizontal surfaces. Further, the inclined surface at the upper end of the lower pipe 22 and the inclined surface at the upper end of the lower pipe 32 face each other. Fixtures 23 and 33 are placed on these inclined surfaces, respectively.

  FIGS. 5A, 5 </ b> B, and 5 </ b> C are diagrams illustrating a state in which the height of the column member 20 is fixed by the fixture 23.

  FIG. 5A is a schematic perspective view of the fixture 23, and FIG. 5B is a plan view. The fixture 23 has an elliptical ring portion 23a that is an elliptical ring, and a fixing projection 23b that protrudes inward from the inner periphery of the elliptical ring portion 23a toward the center.

  As shown in FIG. 5C, the elliptical ring portion 23a of the fixture 23 is placed on the inclined surface of the upper end of the lower pipe 22 of the column member 20, and the upper pipe 21 penetrates the elliptical ring portion 23a. The lower pipe 21 is inserted. Then, when the fixing projection 23b enters one of the plurality of height adjustment holes 24 formed in the upper pipe 21, both engage with each other. Thereby, the relative movement of the upper pipe 21 and the lower pipe 22 is prevented, and the height of the column member 20 is fixed. The column member 30 is not shown but is the same.

  Thus, the height of each of the column member 20 and the column member 30 can be set independently. As described above, this makes it possible to change the inclination angle α of the suspension member 10 shown in FIG. In addition, the height in the vertical direction can be changed while the inclination angle α is kept constant.

  The embodiment of the present invention described above is merely an example, and various modifications other than these are possible, and these are also included in the present invention.
