2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an eaves trough joint for connecting eaves troughs has been connected by fitting both ends of the eaves trough on both ends of an inner peripheral portion of the eaves trough joint.

However, one eaves gutter side is provided with drainage holes to connect down gutters and the other eaves gutter side is also provided with drainage holes to connect downspouts, etc. When draining water, conventionally, rainwater may flow through the eaves gutter joint portion, and a large amount of rainwater may flow to the drain hole side of any eaves gutter and overflow.

Further, in the above conventional example, when the eaves gutter expands and contracts, it cannot be absorbed by the eaves gutter joint, and the eaves gutter meanders.

As another conventional example, a water stop is attached to the end of the eaves gutter, and the ends of the eaves gutter to which the water stop is attached are opposed to each other through a gap, and drainage is performed above the gap. The one with a cover installed is known from Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 56-165825. This is to prevent rainwater from flowing from one eaves gutter to the other eaves gutter side and concentrating a large amount of rainwater on one side by installing water stoppers at the ends of adjacent eaves gutters. Also, by disposing a drain cover above the gap between the waterstops of the adjacent eaves troughs, rainwater flowing between the waterstops is poured into the eaves troughs on both sides. , It is only a water stop attached to the end of the eaves trough, the gap between the water stops is visible from below, and the appearance is poor, so that the eaves trough can be seen continuously through the eaves trough joint. It does not have an external appearance and the product value is reduced.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The present invention will be described below based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

The eaves gutter joint 11 of the present invention is mainly composed of a first joint 2, an auxiliary joint 4, and a second joint 7, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.

The inner peripheral portion of the first joint 2 has substantially the same shape and size as the outer peripheral portion of the eaves gutter, and one end and the other end of the inner peripheral portion of the first joint 2 are respectively provided. Fitting portions 12 and 13 having a U-shaped cross-section that open to the outside are formed.
Also, the auxiliary joint 4 has a cross-sectional shape that is substantially the same as the eaves gutter,
The water stop plate 3 is welded and fixed inside. A fitting portion 14 having a U-shaped cross section is formed at one end of the inner peripheral portion of the second joint 7 and opens outward. In addition, this second joint 7
A water blocking plate 3 is welded and fixed to a substantially intermediate portion in the axial direction of the.

Then, one end of the auxiliary joint 4 is fitted into the fitting portion 13 of the inner peripheral portion of the other end of the first joint 2 and is fixed by adhering with an adhesive, and the second joint 2 The eaves gutter joint 1 by slidably fitting the other end of the auxiliary joint 4 into the other end (that is, the end opposite to the fitting portion 14) of the
It constitutes one subject.

In the eaves-and-groove joint 11 of the present invention, a drain cover 10 is laid over the water stop plate 5 of the second joint 7 and the water stop plate 3 of the auxiliary joint 4. The drain cover 10 has a U-shaped cross section with an opening on the upper side and on both sides.
In the vicinity of both side openings of the U-shaped cover portion 8, a drainage hanging piece 9 is vertically provided, and the lower surface of the U-shaped cover portion 8 is placed on the upper end portions of both water stop plates 5. The drainage hanging pieces 9 on both sides of the drainage cover 10 are positioned outside the respective water stop plates 3 and 5 with a gap therebetween.

Thus, the eaves gutter joint 1 having the above-mentioned structure.
When connecting one eaves gutter 1 and the other eaves gutter 6 by 1, as shown in FIG. 4, a fitting part 12 formed on the inner peripheral part of one end of the first joint 2 of the eaves gutter joint 11 The end portion of one eaves gutter 1 is fitted into and connected to (in this case, it may be fixed by adhering with an adhesive), and the fitting portion 14 formed on the inner peripheral portion of the one end portion of the second joint 7 The other end of the eaves gutter 6 is fitted in (in this case, it may be fixed by adhering with an adhesive).

In the case where both eaves gutters 1 and 6 are connected by the eaves gutter joint 11 of the present invention as described above, one of the eaves gutter 1 side and the other eaves gutter 6 side is connected as shown in FIG. A drainage hole was also formed on the side of this to connect the vertical gutter 15 (here, one eaves gutter 1 side has a plurality of eaves gutters as in the conventional eaves gutter joint, that is, inner circumferences of both ends. It may be one in which both ends of the eaves gutter are fitted and connected so that rainwater flows between the eaves gutters), and the rainwater that flows into one eaves gutter 1 side is the one eaves gutter 1 Downspout 1 connected to the drain hole on the side
In this case, the auxiliary joint 4 is provided with the water stop plate 3, so that rainwater does not flow from one eaves gutter 1 side to the other eaves gutter 6 side. . In addition, the rainwater flowing into the other eaves gutter 6 side flows to the vertical gutter 15 side connected to the drainage hole portion of the other eaves gutter 6 side,
In this case, since the water stop plate 5 is provided on the second joint 7,
Rainwater does not flow from the other eaves gutter 6 side to the one eaves gutter 1 side. Therefore, the rainwater that has flowed into both the eaves gutters 1 and 6 does not concentrate and flow into the drain hole portion side provided on one eaves gutter side and overflow.

Further, although the second joint 7 and the auxiliary joint 4 are simply fitted so as to be slidable, the rainwater flowing from the eaves between the water stop plates 3 and 5 is drained. The rainwater flows from the auxiliary joint 4 to the eaves gutter 1 side while being received by the U-shaped cover portion 8 of the drainage drooping piece 9 as a guide, and from the second joint 7 using the drainage drooping piece 9 as a guide. The rainwater flows to the other eaves gutter 6 side, and as a result, the rainwater may flow to a portion where one end of the auxiliary joint 4 is slidably fitted into the inner peripheral portion of the other end of the second joint 7. Therefore, water does not leak from the portion where the one end of the auxiliary joint 4 is slidably fitted into the inner peripheral portion of the other end of the second joint 7.

When the eaves gutter 1 and the eaves gutter 6 expand and contract,
Since the auxiliary joint 4 is slidably fitted in the inner peripheral portion of the other end of the second joint 7, sliding of the auxiliary joint 4 with respect to the second joint 7 causes the eaves trough 1 and the eaves trough 6 to move. The eaves gutter 1 and the eaves gutter 6 do not meander by absorbing the expansion and contraction.
