【従来の技術】
従来、軒樋支持具としては、実公平4−38015号公報に記載あるように、軒樋支持腕の屋外側耳保持部の上端部に、屋外側耳保持部に比し、広幅となるスペ−サを装着してなる軒樋支持具がある。
この軒樋支持具は、軒樋に荷重がかかり、その結果、軒樋が蛇行したり、軒樋が回動しても、屋外側耳保持部の上端部にスペ−サが装着されて、屋外側の軒樋耳と屋外側耳保持部との接触面積が大となっているから、軒樋支持具の屋外側耳保持部から軒樋が外れ難いのである。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、降雪時、屋根に積もった雪が滑り落ちて軒樋にひっかかった雪や直接軒樋に積もった雪による積雪荷重が下方斜め方向にかかり、軒樋が蛇行することが、積雪地では、多々ある。
上記の実公平4−38015号公報に記載の軒樋支持具では、図3に示すように、屋外側耳保持部30の上端部にスペ−サ31を装着して、軒樋の屋外側耳32と屋外側耳保持部30との接触面積が大となっているが、スペ−サ31が屈曲せずに、真っ直ぐになっているため、軒樋が蛇行した時、スペ−サ31の長手方向の両端部の軒樋の屋外側耳32が当接している箇所33に、応力が集中し、軒樋の屋外側耳32が折曲し、白化現象が生じ破損するという問題があった。
【0004】
本発明の目的は、上記問題に着目してなされたもので、軒樋に積雪による荷重がかかっても、屋外側耳保持部の両端部に応力が集中せず、白化現象が生じない軒樋支持具を提供するものである。
【0005】

軒先取付部1は板状体で、四隅部に4個の取付孔11が設けられ、軒先取付部1のほぼ中央部より、軒樋支持腕2(後述説明)が屋外側に向けて突出されている。
又、軒樋支持腕2は、屋外側に屋外側耳保持部21と屋内側に屋内側耳保持部22が設けられた棒状体である。
又、屋外側耳保持部21には、ほぼ水平な軒先に沿った方向に長い支持片23が設けられ、この支持片23の屋内側面には、上方から下方にかけて4個の切欠部24が設けられている。
【0012】
次に、軒樋支持具Aの施工方法及び作用について説明する。
軒先3に、軒樋支持具Aの取付位置をきめる。
次に、軒先取付部1の四隅部の4個の取付孔11に釘5を差し込み、鼻隠し板3に釘5を打ちつけて、軒先に固定する。
次に、この軒先取付部1のほぼ中央部より、屋外側に向けて突出している軒樋支持腕2の屋外側耳保持部21の支持片23に、軒樋4の屋外側耳を嵌め込む。次に、軒樋支持腕2の屋内側耳保持部22に、軒樋4の屋内側耳を差し込んで、軒樋支持具Aの軒樋支持腕2に軒樋4を取り付ける。
【0013】
このようにすると、軒樋4に、積雪荷重が下方斜め方向にかかり、軒樋4が蛇行すると、屋外側耳保持部21に、ほぼ水平な軒先に沿った方向に長い支持片23が設けられ、この支持片23の屋内側面に、上方から下方にかけて4個の切欠部24が設けられ、支持片23が屈曲可能になされているから、図1及び図2に示すように、軒樋4の屋外側耳に差し込まれている長い支持片23の切欠部24が開くことによって、支持片23の屋内側が伸び、支持片23の屋外側が縮んで、軒樋4の蛇行に追随して、支持片23が屈曲する。
そのため、支持片23の両端部の軒樋4が当接している箇所に、応力が集中せず、軒樋4の屋外側耳が折曲することがなく、軒樋4が白化せず、破損したりしない。

図1及び図2と異なるところは、屋外側耳保持部21bの支持片23bの屋内側縁が屋内方向に突出した円弧状になっているだけで、下記の構造と作用を除き、構造、使用方法と作用は殆ど同じであるので、説明は省略する。
図4において、Bは軒樋支持具であり、軒樋支持具Bは軒先取付部1bと軒樋支持腕2bとからなっている。
軒樋支持腕2bの屋外側耳保持部21bには、この支持片23bの屋外側縁が、ほぼ水平な軒先に沿った方向に長い支持片23bが設けられ、この支持片23bの屋内側縁が、屋内方向に突出した円弧状になされている。
【0016】
このようにすると、軒樋4に、積雪荷重が下方斜め方向にかかり、軒樋4が蛇行すると、屋外側耳保持部21bに、支持片23bが設けられ、ほぼ水平な軒先に沿った方向に長い、支持片23bの屋内側縁が屋内方向に突出した円弧状になされているから、図4及び図5に示すように、軒樋4の屋外側耳が、軒樋4の屋外側耳に差し込まれている支持片23bの円弧状の屋内側縁に沿って屈曲する。そのため、支持片23bの両端部の軒樋4が当接している箇所に、応力が集中せず、軒樋4の屋外側耳が折曲することがなく、軒樋4が白化せず、破損したりしない。
