Description

[0001]
[Industrial applications]
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a gutter fixture for attaching a gutter to an outer wall of a building.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a conventional downspout fitting, it is known, for example, as described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-54507. The downspout mounting device described in the above-mentioned publication has a groove formed on both sides of the downspout on both sides of a substantially U-shaped mounting body composed of a bottom piece and side pieces provided on both sides of the bottom piece. The locking portion is provided in such a manner as to protrude inward, and a mounting hole is formed in the center of the bottom piece so that a fixing tool such as a nail or a screw can be inserted.
[0003]
The above-mentioned conventional gutter mounting fixture is used by inserting a fixing tool into the mounting hole and directly attaching to the outer wall, and attaching the downspout by engaging the locking portions with the concave grooves formed on both sides of the downspout. Is done. In this case, in order to mount the downspout from the outer wall, as shown in the conventional downspout hanging device 1a of FIG. A leg 6a comprising a leg bottom piece 8 to which the ends of the leg pieces 7, 7 are connected is provided, and a fixture 13 is inserted through an insertion hole 10 provided at a substantially central portion of the bottom piece 3, and the leg bottom piece 8 is formed. The head of the fixing device 13 is locked to the mounting hole 9a of the fixing device 13 provided on the outer wall and is attached to the outer wall.
Since the downspout attachment is not exposed at the front surface of the downpipe thus attached, the downspout can be attached with a clean appearance.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, when the downspout attachment described in the above publication is provided with a leg, the size of the fixing device used for the leg may be limited, which may cause a problem. This problem will be described with reference to the conventional downspout fitting 1a shown in FIG. 3. The diameter d of the head of the fixing device 13 is larger than the diameter D of the insertion hole 10 provided in the bottom piece 3, and If the length 1 of the leg 13 is longer than the length L of the leg 7, the head of the fixture 13 cannot be inserted into the insertion hole 10 , so that the downspout fitting 1a is attached to the leg bottom piece 8 of the leg 6a. Cannot be fixed to the outer wall by locking the head of the fixing device 13 to the mounting hole 9a provided in the outer wall. At this time, if the insertion hole 10 provided in the bottom piece 3 is enlarged, the fixing device 13 can be attached. However, since the width of the bottom piece 3 must be increased, it is limited by the external design and the price. Practical problems will arise.
[0005]
Then, this invention is made in order to solve the said problem, and an object of this invention is to provide the downspout attachment which is hard to be restricted by the size of a fixture.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention has been made in order to achieve the above-mentioned object, and includes a bottom piece, and a side piece provided on both sides of the bottom piece. In a downspout fitting provided with locking portions corresponding to the concave grooves formed on both sides protruding inward, the bottom piece has two leg pieces protruding indoors and the two leg pieces. And a bottom portion connected to the tip of the bottom portion of the mounting portion, a mounting hole with a notch opened laterally is provided in the bottom portion of the mounting portion, and two mounting holes are provided on the bottom portion of the mounting body. The downspout fitting is characterized in that an insertion hole is provided in an intermediate portion of the leg piece .
[0007]
[Action]
The downspout mounting fixture of the present invention is provided with a notched mounting hole which is opened laterally in the leg bottom piece, so that the head of the fixing tool is floated on the outer wall in advance and opened to the side. Insert the shank of a fixture such as a nail or screw from the notch, lock the head of this fixture in the mounting hole of the bottom piece of the leg, and finally drive it until the head of the fixture is in close contact with the bottom piece of the leg If it is screwed in, the downspout fitting can be firmly fixed. Therefore, a fixture having a long head and a large head can be used without limitation.
[0008]
【Example】
Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 and 2 show an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a downspout fitting, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a use state of the downspout fitting of FIG.
[0009]
1 is a gutter attachment, 2 is a mounting body, 6 is a leg, 11 is a gutter, 13 is a fixture, 14 is an outer wall, and 15 is a structural material.
The above-mentioned downspout fitting 1 is provided with a downspout 11 on both sides 4, 4 of a substantially U-shaped mounting body 2 comprising a bottom piece 3 and side pieces 4, 4 provided on both sides of the bottom piece 3. Locking portions 5, 5 corresponding to the concave grooves 12, 12 formed on both side portions are provided to protrude inward.
[0010]
The bottom piece 3 is provided with a leg portion 6 composed of two leg pieces 7 and 7 projecting to the indoor side and a leg bottom piece 8 connecting the tips of the two leg pieces 7 and 7. The leg bottom piece 8 is provided with a notched mounting hole 9 opened to the side.
The operation of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
[0011]
The outer wall 14 in FIG. 2 is a panel in which a heat insulating material is incorporated, and a fixing device 13 such as a nail or a screw cannot be fixed to the outer wall 14. The example of fixing is shown. For this reason, the fixing device 13 used in the present embodiment can be fixed to the structural material 15 at the distal end portion of the fixing device 13 when the leg bottom piece 8 of the downspout mounting device 1 is fixed to the outer wall surface at its head. A screw having a length larger than that of the insertion hole 10 is used.
[0012]
The downspout mounting fixture 1 of this embodiment is provided with a notched mounting hole 9 opened laterally in the leg bottom piece 8, so that the head of the fixture 13 is mounted on the outer wall 14 in advance by floating. The shaft of the fixing device 13 is inserted through the notched mounting hole 9 opened to the side, the head of the fixing device 13 is locked in the mounting hole 9 of the leg bottom piece 8, and finally the leg bottom piece 8 When the screw is screwed into the fixing device 13 until the head of the fixing device 13 comes into close contact, the downspout mounting device 1 can be firmly fixed. Thus, even larger fasteners 13 than with the head insertion hole 10 is long in length of the fastener 13, it can be used without limitation.
[0013]
【The invention's effect】
In the downpipe mounting device of the present invention, since the notch mounting hole opened to the side is provided on the leg bottom piece, the length of the fixing tool is long and the head is provided on the bottom piece of the mounting body. even greater fixture than the insertion hole, can be used without limitation. Therefore, the width of the bottom piece does not need to be increased unlike the conventional downspout fitting, so that there is no inconvenience in the appearance design and the price is not increased, so that it is economical.
