Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は建築構造材用ねじ式接合具に係り、詳しくは、建築構造材の仕口近傍で横断するように埋設される柱状受具と、他の建築構造材を貫通して柱状受具と共にT字状をなすごとくねじ締結される引張棒とによって、複数の被接合物を緊結できるようにした建築構造材接合用固定具に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
金属製円柱状受具の長手方向中央部位に雌ねじを形成しておき、これに引張棒をねじ込むことにより、木質の柱と梁を緊結したり柱を土台に固定できるようにした緊結金具はよく知られている。例えば特開平9−60124号公報にその一例が記載されている。
【0003】
具体的に述べれば、円柱状受具はその直径が例えば30mm、長さが120mm程度であり、120mm角の梁の仕口から200mmほど隔たった箇所で梁を横断するように埋め込まれる。この円柱状受具の中央部で横断するようにして設けられる径10mm程度の雌ねじは、その軸線が水平となるように、即ち梁の軸線と一致するように、このねじ孔刻設型柱状受具の埋設姿勢が整えられる。
【0004】
柱も120mm角であるとすると径が10mmの雄ねじを先端に持った図17の中段部に示す引張棒3は330mm程度の長さとされ、柱16の側面から梁51の仕口に向けて水平に挿入した後、頭の部分にワッシャ3wをかますなどしてヘッド3hをスパナや六角レンチを用いて回せば、円柱状受具17とワッシャ3wとによって梁51を柱16に固定することができる。
【0005】
このような緊結金具は、引張棒のヘッドを回転させるため引張棒の軸方向延長側に操作スペース52が確保されねばならず、従って、通し柱に対して左右から同じ高さで梁が配置される図17の上段の部分に示した構造となっている場合には、最早使用することができない。その場合には、図に示すごとく、各梁13,36に上方へ開口する凹み53,54を設け、柱16から梁13に向けて挿入された長い引張棒3Aにナット55が掛けられる。そして、右に突き出た引張棒3Aを梁36に設けた水平な孔に通し、凹み54のところでナット56が掛けられる。
【0006】
このような両引き構造は、先に述べた片引き構造に比べれば、その取付構造が複雑となったり組立作業が煩瑣となり、場合によっては掛け外れが生じるといった少々の危険を伴うこともある。それだけでなく、凹みの部分で大きな断面欠損が生じ、梁の元来有する強度や剛性が十分に発揮されなくもなる。勿論、その凹みはできるだけ浅くとる傾向にあるので、引張棒が梁の上面側(図の場合)若しくは下面側に片寄る傾向となり、仕口において均等に分散された力による緊結も達成されがたい。
【0007】
図17の下段部に示したように土台15に柱16を取りつける場合、L形金具57を用いるなどして、基礎に対してはアンカー58で、柱に対してはねじ棒59により固定される。これは、この箇所において最早円柱状受具に対する引張棒の固定操作をする余地がないためであり、従ってその固定構造は図のごとく複雑化し又使用部品点数の増大も招くものとなる。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、引張棒の固定操作が何処に適用した金具の場合でも可能となるように、即ち円柱状受具に対する引張棒のねじ込みのための操作スペースが引張棒の軸方向延長線側に存在しなくても緊結操作が可能となること、更には大きな断面欠損を伴うことなく両引き構造を実現できることを可能にした構造が、特開2001−146792号公報に提案されている。
【0009】
これは、T字形の緊結金具とする場合、上記した引張棒を2つの部材から構成し、一端に雄ねじを他端に回転用ヘッドを持った第一部材と、その雄ねじに螺着可能な雌ねじを端部に備えるが大部分は中実であり円柱状受具を挿通する箇所では楔進退溝が形成された第二部材とからなっている。一方、円柱状受具にはその中央に雌ねじはなく、単なる挿通孔となっている。しかし、この円柱状受具は中空であり、軸方向に変位可能な楔体とそれを後押しする子ねじが内包された楔変位型円柱状受具となっている。
【0010】
(特開2001−146792号公報の図3をご参照下さい)
例えば梁に円柱状受具を埋設し、その梁の仕口から第二部材を挿入する。楔進退溝が円柱状受具に到達するまで第二部材が押し入れられると、円柱状受具内の子ねじの螺進によって、楔体を第二部材と少し交差してひっ掛かる程度に押し込む。柱の反対側から第一部材を挿入し、柱から出た雄ねじを第二部材の雌ねじに螺着する。その後、円柱状受具内の子ねじを回して楔体を前進させれば、第二部材は第一部材と共に少し軸方向へ移動し、この楔作用によって梁は柱に強力に固定される。
【0011】
(特開2001−146792号公報の図3をご参照下さい)
柱や梁に取りつけた緊結金具は以後取り外されることはないが、その必要が生じた場合のために、円柱状受具には楔体を挟んで子ねじと反対側にそれより径の小さい押しねじ孔が設けられる。子ねじを後退させた後押しねじを前進させて楔体を押し返せば、第二部材と楔体の間に隙間が生じ、緊結状態を解放することができる。尚、子ねじや押しねじは楔変位型円柱状受具の軸方向から六角レンチを挿入するなどして回転させれば、その変位を任意に与えることができる。
【0012】
(特開2001−146792号公報の図9をご参照下さい)
片引き構造でよい場合は上記のとおりであるが、両引き構造とする場合には、前記した第一部材に代えてスリーブ体を使用し、第二部材の雌ねじ部分を雄ねじに変更しておけばよい。そして、スリーブ体の反対側に第三部材であるねじ棒を螺着し、その反対端を特開平9−60124号公報のところで述べたねじ孔刻設型柱状受具に螺合させるようにしておけばよい。最終的な緊結操作は、上記と同様第二部材の楔進退溝に楔体を前進させることにより、第二部材がスリーブ体を介して第三部材を引っ張る形態となる。この種の緊結構造は、図17に示したいずれの箇所についても適用することができる。
【0013】
ところで、その緊結力は楔体を前進させることによってテーパ面を介して発揮されることになるが、テーパ面には言うまでもなく大きな摩擦が作用するため、子ねじを螺進させるために必要となる回転力は極めて大きくなる。又、第一部材等に作用させるべき軸力は子ねじに及ぼすトルクを目安にすることもできなくはないが、所望する大きさの軸力を与えるように楔体の進出量を規定する操作は至難の技である。又、楔進退溝の加工精度も、極めて高いものが要求されることになる。
【0014】
更には、第二部材に左右対称の楔進退溝を形成しておくことになるので第二部材自体に断面欠損部が生じ、所望の緊結力を発揮させるために太い棒材の使用が強いられ、緊結金具としてはサイズアップが余儀なくされる問題もある。勿論、楔体の進退は引張棒の軸方向変位に基づく締結力の発生に留まり、子ねじの回転によって引張棒を回すということまではできない。従って緊結以前に螺合操作の全てを完了しておかなければならず、緊結金具としての適用の途を狭める欠点もある。
【0015】
本発明は上記の問題に鑑みなされたもので、その目的は、片引きのみならず両引きにおいても構造材に大きな断面欠損を生じさせることなく適用できる緊結構造を可能にすること、その緊結機構の単純化と操作性に優れると共に安定した動きと所望する大きさの緊結力を発揮させやすくすること、緊結操作スペースに制約を受けることが少なくなり、金具自体に断面欠損を伴うこともないことを実現した建築構造材用ねじ式接合具を提供することである。
【0016】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、受具が建築構造材の仕口近傍に埋設され、その受具内には他の構造材を貫いて延びる引張棒の一端の雄ねじ部と螺合する雌ねじ部が設けられ、受具には引張棒の雄ねじ部を挿入することができる嵌入孔が形成されると共に、雌ねじ部はその嵌入孔の軸芯に一致する軸線を中心にして受具内で遊転自在に内装されたウオームホイールの中心部に形成され、そのウオームホイールの外周部は受具に挿入された回転力伝達杆によって回されるウオームと噛みあわされ、雌ねじ部に予め噛みあわされた雄ねじ部をウオームの回転により強く螺合させて大きい接合力を発生させたり、強く螺合させた引張棒に回転力を与えることにより、引張棒の他端に形成されて締付力を及ぼすことができる抜け止め部を介して、構造材相互を緊結できるようにした建築構造材接合用固定具に適用される。その特徴とするところは、図1を参照して、
受具2は仕口近傍で建築構造材を横断して埋設される柱状をなし、雌ねじ部4fは受具2の長手方向中間部に配置され、回転力伝達杆7は柱状受具2の軸線2aに交差する向きに受具の端面2eから挿入され、ウオーム5も同じ交差角を持った姿勢で配置されてウオームホイール4に噛みあわされていることである。
【0017】
雌ねじ部4fは右ねじに形成され、ウオームホイール4はウオーム5の右回転(図1中の矢印10を参照)により引張棒螺入側から見て左回転(同図中矢印8を参照)となるように設定しておくとよい。
【0018】
図10の(a)に示すように、ウオームホイール4の歯幅方向中央には、ウオーム5の一部が嵌まりこむ円弧状凹み4aが形成されているとよい。
【0019】
図5に示すように、ウオーム5は回転力伝達杆7と一体であり、構造材の接合操作後は、ホイール内装型の柱状受具2から取り出し可能にしておくと便利である。
【0020】
図5にあるように、ホイール内装型柱状受具2のウオーム5が配置される箇所には、そのウオーム5の回転を許容する一方で、前進を阻止する軸承部11を形成しておくとよい。
【0021】
図11に示すように、ホイール内装型柱状受具2の回転力伝達杆7の挿入口2tには、回転力伝達杆7の後退を阻止するためのストッパ体21を螺着させるねじ孔部23が形成される。このねじ孔部に形成されるねじは、接合操作する際ウオーム5を右回転させるようにしている場合、左ねじとしておくとよい。
【0022】
図12を参照して、ホイール内装型柱状受具2は長手方向に沿って二分された分割構造であり、各分割体の合わせ面側にはウオームホイール、ウオーム、回転力伝達杆を収容する凹み25,27,26が形成され、少なくともウオームホイールを装填して図13のように対面させた状態で合わせ面周部に溶接32が施され、柱状受具2の一体化が図られるものとしておくとよい。
【0023】
図2の(a)を参照して、中心部に雌ねじ部4fを形成したウオームホイール4が内装されているホイール内装型柱状受具2、その雌ねじ部4fに螺合する雄ねじ部3aを一端に備えた引張棒3、その引張棒3の他端に形成した雄ねじ部3bに螺着されるスリーブ体41、そのスリーブ体のねじ孔41aの反対側から螺着される雄ねじ部42aを持った連結棒42、その連結棒の他端が螺合される他の柱状受具17を備える構成としておく。こうしておけば、図7の上の部分に示すごとく、先ず、他の柱状受具17が仕口近傍で横断するように第一構造材13に埋設される。この第一構造材13に挿入した連結棒42をその柱状受具17に螺合させた後、第一構造材13に入らなかった部分を第二構造材16に挿通し、その先端の雄ねじ部42aにスリーブ体41を螺着する。その一方、ホイール内装型柱状受具2が仕口近傍で横断するように第三構造材36に埋設され、第三構造材36中を延びてウオームホイール4の雌ねじ部4fに予め螺合された引張棒3を、ウオームホイールの回転によりスリーブ体41に螺着させる。ウオームホイール4の回転を続けることによって生じるスリーブ体41の回転で連結棒42を他の柱状受具17に強く螺合させ、第二構造材16を第一構造材13と第三構造材36とで挟みつけるようにして緊結する操作を、回転力伝達杆7(図1を参照)の回転によって可能にするようにしている。
【0024】
図2に示すように、スリーブ体41には鍔状部41fが設けられ、ウオーム5によってウオームホイール4を回転させた際に、鍔状部41fが図7中の拡大表示部に示すごとく第二構造材16に当接できるようにしておき、最終的には鍔状部41fと他の柱状受具17とによって第一構造材13と第二構造材16との緊結状態を向上させることができるようにしておく。尚、図1に示すように、雌ねじ部4fは右ねじに形成され、ウオームホイール4はウオーム5の右回転(矢印10を参照)により引張棒螺入側から見て左回転(矢印8を参照)となるように設定され、引張棒3及び連結棒42(図2を参照)のそれぞれの両端に形成された雄ねじ部3a,3b,42a,42bは右ねじとしておくとよい。
【0025】
【発明の効果】
本発明によれば、柱状受具にウオームギヤ機構が内装されているので、引張棒を噛みあわせて大きい接合力を発生させたり、強く螺合させた状態で引張棒に回転力を与えて他のねじ要素との締結を簡単に実現することができる。その締結力発生のためのトルク調整は楔形式に比べれば格段に容易となり、トルク不足となったり存外なトルクを作用させるようなことも少なくなる。
【0026】
引張棒と螺合するウオームホイールを回転させるウオームは柱状受具の端面側から操作されることになるので、操作用空間は引張棒の軸方向延長側に必要とされず、従って片引きの場合のみならず、両引きの場合でも適用性が格段に向上する。被接合物である構造材に大きな断面欠損を生じさせることはなく、緊結金具自体にも断面欠損部を有することがないので、金具としての小型化は進み、軽量化も図られる。
【0027】
回転力伝達杆を柱状受具の軸線に交差する向きに端面から挿入し、ウオームも同じ交差角を持った姿勢で配置してウオームホイールに噛みあわせておけば、ホイール内装型柱状受具内にウオームギヤ機構及び回転力伝達杆をコンパクトに格納しておくことができる。それのみならず、回転力伝達杆がホイール内装型柱状受具の軸線上からずれて延びる姿勢となるので、回転力伝達杆を回転させる電動工具が近隣に位置する構造材と干渉することも少なくでき、緊結のための操作性が向上する。
【0028】
引張棒が螺合されるウオームホイールに設けられた雌ねじ部を右ねじに、ウオームホイールはウオームの右回転により引張棒螺入側から見て左回転となるようにウオームのつる巻き線の方向を設定しておけば、ウオームを回してウオームホイールを回転させたとき、雌ねじ部と引張棒との螺合を助長することができる。噛みあい端まで螺合が進むと引張棒には柱状受具内で回転するウオームホイールによって右回転が与えられ、その引張棒を他のねじ要素に右回転によってひき続き螺着操作することができ、一連の作業でもって締結を完了させることができるようになる。
【0029】
ウオームホイールの歯幅方向中央にウオームの一部が嵌まりこむ円弧状凹みを形成しておけば、つる巻き状に形成されたウオームの歯面とウオームホイールの歯面との接触面積が凹みのないときに比べて大きくなり、ウオームギヤ機構におけるトルク伝達が容易となる。しかも、ウオームの軸線とウオームホイールのそれとを接近させることにもなり、ホイール内装型柱状受具内に確保しなければならない空間の狭小化が図られ、緊結金具としてのサイズダウンにも寄与させることができる。
【0030】
ウオームはそれを回転させるための回転力伝達杆と一体にしておけば、回転力伝達杆の端部をホイール内装型柱状受具の端部空間において回転させることによって、ウオームホイールを遠隔的に回転させることができる。回転時は回転力伝達杆を押し込み勝手とする操作となることは言うまでもないが、軽く逆回転させれば、ウオームを回転力伝達杆と共に取り出すことができる。
【0031】
これによって、緊結操作後の柱状受具にはウオームホイールだけを残すことになり、ウオームは以後も別の箇所に埋設している柱状受具のウオームホイールを回転させるために使用することができる。このようにしてウオームのツール化が図られると緊結金具の部品点数を減少させることにもなり、廉価な金具の提供が可能となる。
【0032】
ホイール内装型柱状受具のウオームが配置される箇所の奥端に軸承部を設けておけば、これが押し込み勝手に操作されるウオームの軸方向前進を阻止すると共に、ウオームの安定した回転を維持し、ウオームホイールの雌ねじ部と引張棒との螺合の円滑が図られる。
【0033】
ホイール内装型柱状受具の回転力伝達杆の挿入口にストッパ体を螺着させるねじ孔部を形成しておけば、そのストッパ体によって回転力伝達杆の後退が阻止され、ウオーム逆転操作時にウオームとウオームホイールの噛みあいが外れるのを防止しておくことができる。これによって逆転時に押し出され傾向にあるウオームであってもウオームホイールを安定して回転させ、引張棒を雌ねじ部から解脱させることができる。
【0034】
回転力伝達杆の後退を阻止するストッパ体を螺着させるためのねじ孔部が左ねじとなっているなら、回転力伝達杆を逆回転させたとき、ストッパ体がその回転にひきずられてねじ孔部から緩み出るということはなくなり、ウオームとウオームホイールとの噛みあわせを持続して、ウオームホイールの安定した逆転を確保することができる。
【0035】
ホイール内装型柱状受具を長手方向に沿って分割した二つ割れ構造とし、各分割体の対面側にウオームホイール、ウオーム、回転力伝達杆を収容する凹みを形成しておけば、その後は少なくともウオームホイールを装填して対面させた状態で接合面周部に溶接を施して一体化させることにより、ウオームギヤ機構による締付力を発揮する柱状受具を製作することが容易となる。
【0036】
雌ねじ部を形成するウオームホイールが内装されたホイール内装型柱状受具、その雌ねじ部に螺合する雄ねじ部を一端に有する引張棒、その他端に形成された雄ねじ部に螺着されるスリーブ体、そのスリーブ体のねじ孔の反対側から螺着される雄ねじ部を持った連結棒、この連結棒の他端が螺合される雌ねじ部を有した他の柱状受具を備えておけば、ウオームホイールを回転させて引張棒をスリーブ体に螺着させることができると共に、ひき続きスリーブ体の回転を介して連結棒を前記他の柱状受具に強く螺合することもできる。これによって、構造材を回転力伝達杆の一連の操作によって組み付けることができると共に、軸線上では接合操作不可能な箇所での両引き締結も可能となる。
【0037】
スリーブ体に鍔状部を設け、ウオームによりウオームホイールを介して引張棒を回転させた際に鍔状部が第二構造材に当接できるようにしておけば、その鍔状部と前記他の柱状受具とによって第一構造材と第二構造材との緊結状態を向上させることができる。
【0038】
ウオームホイールの雌ねじ部には右ねじが与えられ、ウオームホイールはウオームの右回転により引張棒螺入側から見て左回転となるようにウオームのつる巻き線の方向が設定され、引張棒及び連結棒のそれぞれの両端に形成された雄ねじ部を右ねじとしておけば、回転力伝達杆の右回転操作によって両引き構造の金具の緊結操作が一連の動きとして達成されることになる。
【0039】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に、本発明に係る建築構造材用ねじ式接合具を、その実施の形態を示した図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。図1は、被接合物である木質構造材相互を緊結できるようにした建築構造材用ねじ式接合具1の要部と、それぞれの回転方向を表した斜視図である。
【0040】
この金具は、構造材の仕口近傍で横断するように埋設される金属若しくは硬質プラスチック等で製作された円柱状受具2と、この円柱状受具の長手方向中間部に設けた雌ねじ部に他の構造材(被接合物)を貫いて螺合される引張棒3とを備え、引張棒の他端の図示しない抜け止め部を介して締付力を対向する構造材に及ぼすことができるようにしたものである。
【0041】
詳しく述べると、円柱状受具2には、ウオームホイール4とそれを回転させるためのウオーム5とからなるウオームギヤ機構6が導入されている。そのウオームホイール4は円柱状受具2の長手方向略中央部に遊転可能に内装され、その中心部に引張棒3を螺合させる雌ねじ部4fが形成されている。
【0042】
そして、図2の(a)に示すように、このホイール内装型円柱状受具2にはその雌ねじ部4fの軸線と略同心の嵌入孔2hが設けられ、引張棒3の雄ねじ部3a及びその基部近傍の軸部3sを挿入することができるようになっている。尚、図においては嵌入孔2hは円柱状受具2を直径方向に貫通する横断孔であり、雄ねじ部3aの外径よりも少し大きくされている。
【0043】
ウオームホイール4の外周部と噛みあわされるウオーム5は、図3の(a)に示すように回転力伝達杆7と一体になっており、図1に示すホイール内装型円柱状受具2の端面2eから挿入された回転力伝達杆7によって回すことができる。そのための挿入口2tは図4からも分かるように斜めに開口しており、回転力伝達杆7が図1に示すように円柱状受具2の軸線2aに対して交差角αをもって挿入される。因みに、その角度の選定は、その都度円柱状受具2の径やウオームホイール4の径など主要寸法を勘案して決定すればよい。
【0044】
勿論、ウオーム5は回転力伝達杆7と同じ交差角を持った姿勢で配置され、ウオームホイール4に噛みあわされるが、このウオーム5は回転力伝達杆7を少し逆転させた後に引き出せば、円柱状受具2から取り出すことができるようになっている。従って、緊結操作後の柱状受具2にはウオームホイール4が残されるだけとなり、そのウオームは以後別の箇所に埋設されている円柱状受具のウオームホイールを回転させるために使用することができる。
【0045】
回転力伝達杆がウオーム5と一体若しくは後述する図8に示すようにウオーム20と別体になっているかどうかは別にしても、このようなウオームギヤ機構6を採用しておくと、後で詳しく述べるが、図1に示す雌ねじ部4fに予め噛みあわされた雄ねじ部3aをウオーム5の回転により、ウオームホイール4を矢印8の方向に回転させて相互を強く螺合させ、大きい接合力を発生させたり、強く螺合させた引張棒3に矢印9の向きの回転力を与えたりすることができるようになる。尚、雌ねじ部4fは右ねじに形成される一方、ウオームホイール4はウオーム5の矢印10の右回転により引張棒3の螺入側から見て左回転(矢印8)となるように、ウオーム5のつる巻き線の方向が設定されている。
【0046】
ところで、ホイール内装型円柱状受具2には、図5に示すように、そのウオーム5が配置される箇所の奥まった箇所に、そのウオーム5の回転を許容しかつ前進を阻止する軸承部11が形成される(円柱状受具2からウオームギヤ機構6を除去して描いた断面図である図6も参照)。即ち、押し勝手に回転操作されるウオーム5の軸方向変位を規制すると共に、回転ぶれを抑える軸受機能をも発揮する凹みが設けられる。そのため、ウオーム5の奥側端には図5に示すように略先鋭部5aが形成され、ニードル軸受機構とすることにより回転の安定が図られるように配慮される。
【0047】
構造材の緊結金具を以上のように構成しておくと、次に述べるようにして締結力を容易に発生させることができる。まず、図7のAの部分に適用した場合を説明する。この場合の引張棒3にはその一端に円柱状受具2と螺合する雄ねじ部3aが形成され、他端には抜け止め部3kが設けられている。ホイール内装型円柱状受具2は、内装されたウオームホイール4の軸線が垂直となるように、斜材12の仕口近傍で横断するように埋設される。
【0048】
抜け止め部を構成するヘッド3hとワッシャ3wとを上方に位置する姿勢として梁13へ挿入し、引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aをウオームホイール4の雌ねじ部に軽く噛みあわせる。尚、円柱状受具2の他方の端面に図1に示したウオームホイール4の軸線に直角若しくは平行な浅い溝2gを形成しておけば、その溝を目安にして、図7の場合の雌ねじ部の開口方向を知り、又薄鉄片を差し込んで回転することにより開口姿勢を修正することができる。
【0049】
次に、図5のように回転力伝達杆7を円柱状受具2に挿入して軽く回し、先端のウオーム5をウオームホイール4に噛みあわせる。図7の紙面の手前空間に作業者が位置し、図5の被チャッキング部14を電動工具によって掴み矢印10の方向に回転させる。ウオーム5は押し勝手に操作されるが、軸承部11によってその軸方向の前進が阻止されると共にウオーム5の安定した回転が確保され、ウオームホイール4の雌ねじ部4fと引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aとの螺合が円滑に進行する。
【0050】
所望するトルクが生じるまで回転力伝達杆7を回転させれば、ウオームホイール4の回転によって引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aが円柱状受具2に引き込まれ、引張棒3に所望する軸力を作用させることができる。引張棒の抜け止め部3kを介して締付力が発生するから、斜材12と水平材(梁)13とが緊結される。
【0051】
ところで、図9のように回転力伝達杆7を円柱状受具2の軸線2aに平行して端面2eから挿入してもよいが、図5のように交差する向きに挿入するようにしておけば、ウオームギヤ機構6及び回転力伝達杆7をコンパクトに円柱状受具2に格納しておくことができる。それのみならず、回転力伝達杆7が円柱状受具2の軸線から外れて延びる姿勢となるので、回転力伝達杆を回転させる図示しない電動工具が近隣に位置する構造材と干渉することも少なくすることができ、緊結のための操作性も向上する場合が多くなる。
【0052】
尚、図1のように六角レンチ孔14aを介して回転力伝達杆7を回転できることも言うまでもない。又、受具2は円柱状に限らず例えば多角形断面等であってもよく、要は構造材に挿入するようにして埋設することができると共に、無用の応力集中の発生を避けて所望する大きさの接合力を受け止められるような柱状体となっていればよい。
【0053】
更に、柱状受具に設けられた嵌入孔2h(図2の(a)を参照)は先に述べたように横断孔でもよいし、図2の(b)に示すように雄ねじ部3aを挿入するに留まる程度の袋状孔2nでもよい。しかし、横断孔にしておけば、図2の(a)の柱状受具2を上下逆にしても雄ねじ部3aをウオームホイール4に螺合させることができるので、柱状受具2の軸線2aに交差する図1に示した回転力伝達杆7の傾斜を反対にすることもできる。従って、近隣の構造材のたて込み具合に応じて、回転力伝達杆7のセッティングに選択の余地を残すことができ、上記したように利便性が高くなる。
【0054】
因みに、ウオームホイール4の柱状受具2への内装要領は後述するが、その回転を円滑にしたりウオーム5からの回転力伝達時の摩擦を抑えるために、柱状受具内にグリスなどの潤滑剤を注入しておいたり、ウオーム5にグリスを付着させてから挿入するなどするようにしてもよい。
【0055】
図7に戻って、BやCの部分に適用した場合を、次に簡単に説明する。Bの部分では引張棒3がアンカーボルトであり、U字状に曲がった下端部が抜け止め部として機能し、軸部は土台15を貫いて上方に延びている。この場合、予めホイール内装型柱状受具2が埋設された柱16を降ろしてアンカーボルトの軸部を挿入し、柱状受具2に到達した時点で図示しない回転力伝達杆を回して先端の雄ねじ部をウオームホイールの雌ねじ部に螺合して、締めあげればよい。
【0056】
Cの部分では引張棒の抜け止め部は、特開平9−60124号公報で紹介したねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17であり、引張棒3の他端に形成した雄ねじ部3cが斜材18に埋設された柱状受具17に予め螺合される。斜材18から左方向へ突出した引張棒3を柱16に通し、ホイール内装型円柱状受具2を埋設した斜材12に柱16から左に出た軸部を挿入する。柱状受具2において回転力伝達杆によりウオームホイールを回転させると雌ねじ部4fが引張棒3を引き込むようにして螺合が進む。
【0057】
螺合が噛みあい端まで至ると引張棒3には柱状受具2内で回転を続ける雌ねじ部4fによって右回転が与えられ、その引張棒3は他のねじ要素であるねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17に右回転して強力に螺合される。尚、斜材18側で、ねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17に代えてホイール内装型円柱状受具を使用することもできなくはないが、ねじ孔刻設型柱状受具の方が安価であること、柱状受具2からの最終締結操作時にはホイール内装型円柱状受具のウオームホイールの回転を阻止しておく必要が残ることから、ねじ孔刻設型柱状受具で十分なことが多い。
【0058】
このような作動から分かるように、柱状受具にはウオームギヤ機構が介装されるので、ウオームギヤ特有の少ないトルクで大きい回転力をウオームホイールに発生させることにより、引張棒の雄ねじ部との噛みあわせを介して大きい接合力を発生させることができる。ウオームの回転数は多く必要とされるが、電動工具を用いて回転させれば1秒前後の極めて僅かな時間で螺合を完了することができる。その緊結力を発生させるためのトルクは従来技術の項で述べた楔形式に比べれば格段に調整しやすくなる。
【0059】
ウオームホイールを回転させるウオームは柱状受具の端面側から操作されることになるので、操作用空間は引張棒の軸方向延長側に必要とされず、片引きといえども緊結金具の適用性が格段に向上する。勿論、被接合物である構造材に大きな断面欠損を生じさせることはなく、緊結金具自体にも断面欠損部を形成させることがないので、金具としての小型化が進み軽量化も図りやすくなる。
【0060】
上の例では、引張棒が螺合されるウオームホイールに設けた雌ねじ部を右ねじに設定し、ウオームホイールはウオームの右回転により引張棒螺入側から見て左回転となるように、ウオームのつる巻き線の方向を設定しているので、ウオームを回してウオームホイールを回転させたとき、雌ねじ部と引張棒とを少し噛みあわせておくか、雄ねじ部の先端を雌ねじ部の入口に落とし込んでおけば、その後のウオームの回転は螺合を助長する締まり勝手な動作となる。
【0061】
図3の(a)はウオーム5と回転力伝達杆7とが一体の例を示したが、この場合、緊結金具としての部品点数を減少させることにもなり、廉価な金具の提供が可能となる。しかし、これに限らず、図8のように回転力伝達杆19の先端にプラスドライバーのような係合爪19aを形成し、ウオーム20の基部に係合溝20aを設けるようにしたものでもよい。
【0062】
ウオームホイール4のみならずウオーム20も柱状受具2に残されることになるが、回転力伝達杆19の外端部を掴んでホイール内装型柱状受具の端部空間において回転させることにより、ウオームを遠隔的に回すことができることに変わりはない。
【0063】
ウオーム5の収納空間2sの輪郭を図のようにウオーム20の外形に合わせておけば、ウオーム20の軸方向変位は生じにくくなるので、回転時に回転力伝達杆19に対する押し込み力を軽減しておくことができる。一方、引くだけで、回転力伝達杆19は取り出され、従ってツールとして再使用できるのは回転力伝達杆のみとなるものの、緊結作業の能率化には大いに寄与するものとなる。
【0064】
尚、図7のAないしCの部分には仕口にほぞを設けたように描いていないが、ほぞを形成しておくことに特に支障が出るものでない。ほぞを設けた場合には、ほぞを貫くように引張棒を配置すればよい。しかし、本緊結金具によればその緊結力は大きく発揮されるので、ほぞの形成を省いておくことができる場合も多くなる。そして、引張棒を構造材の軸線上に配置することも容易となるので、先に述べた例では図7のB部分や後述するDの部分において、そのような配置を容易に実現することができる。
【0065】
これによって仕口における力の分布が均等化され、片寄った力が掛かることになるのを防止しておくことができる。この緊結金具の適用対象は主として木質建築構造材であるが、その他の材質の構造材であっても柱状受具を埋設することができる構造材であれば適用することができる。そのサイズも適用対象の構造材の断面積や断面形状に応じて、適宜選択すればよい。
【0066】
ところで、図2にも示しているが、図10の(a)に拡大して表しているように、ウオームホイール4の歯幅方向中央にウオーム5の一部が嵌まりこむ円弧状凹み4aを形成しておく。こうしておけば、つる巻き状に形成されたウオームの歯面5tとウオームホイールの歯面4tとの接触面積が、図10の(b)の凹みのないときに比べて大きくなり(太くハッチッチグした部分を参照)、ウオームギヤ機構におけるトルク伝達が容易となる。
【0067】
しかも、ウオームの軸線5sとウオームホイールの軸線4sとの間隔La を(b)の場合のLb よりも短くできることになり、ホイール内装型柱状受具内に確保しなければならない格納空間の狭小化が図られ、緊結金具の小型化にも寄与させることができる。
【0068】
以上の説明は、緊結金具を用いて構造材を接合する操作を述べた。ところで、建築物を構築中に一旦接合した構造材を外すということは殆どないが、その必要に迫られることも無いとは言えない。そこで、上記したウオームギヤ機構によりウオームホイールを逆転させ、引張棒の雄ねじ部をウオームホイールの雌ねじ部から解き放つ操作について、以下に説明する。
【0069】
今、雄ねじ部が雌ねじ部に対して強く螺合している状態にあるということは、雄ねじ部がそのねじ形成端まで雌ねじ部に螺合しており、かつ引張棒に軸力が作用していることを意味する。この軸力により引張棒はウオームホイールに引き寄せられた恰好となっているが、その反力はウオームホイール4を図2の(a)に示すホイール格納空間25の引張棒螺入側壁25wで受け止められる。
【0070】
従って、ウオーム5を図1の場合とは逆に回転させようとするなら、その接触面における摩擦に打ち勝たなければならい。ところが、ウオーム5を逆転させると図5から想像できるように、簡単には回転しなくなっているウオームホイール4の歯面にガイドされた動きでウオーム5が抜け勝手となり、結局は図1に示した雄ねじ部3aを雌ねじ部4fから解脱することができなくなる。
【0071】
そこで、本発明においては、図11に示すようなストッパ体21を準備し、回転力伝達杆7が矢印22の逆転時に抜け出るのを止める配慮が施される。図右端のストッパ体21は回転力伝達杆7に臨ませた状態の外観を示し、中程部分の21は回転力伝達杆7に嵌挿した状態を示している。
【0072】
この例の場合、挿入口2tに、回転力伝達杆7の後退を阻止するための中空のストッパ体21を螺着させるねじ孔部23が形成される。その一方、ストッパ体21は回転力伝達杆7の軸の一部を外嵌する縦通孔21aを持つと共に、回転力伝達杆7の中胴部に設けた段差7pに当接するストッパ部21sも備える。
【0073】
このストッパ部21sはねじ孔部23に螺着される雄ねじ部21mの先端に形成され、従って雄ねじ部21mをねじ孔部23一杯までねじ込めば、奥まで入り込んだ状態の回転力伝達杆7の段差7pに当接させることができる。この場合、ねじ孔部23の深さ、雄ねじ部21mの長さ、回転力伝達杆7における段差7pの位置等は所望する動作に相応しくなるように定められる。
【0074】
尚、ストッパ体21をねじ込むための操作部として図示のような握り21gを設けておき、表面にローレット加工を施しておいたり、仮想線で表した捻り用ハンドル21hを設けるなどしておけば、ねじ込み操作が容易となる。この操作部が設けられない場合には、雄ねじ部21mの後端に図1中に2gの符号で示したような溝を与えておけば、薄鉄片を引っ掛けて回すなどして、ねじ孔部23への螺着を簡単に行うことができる。一方、操作部を設けるなら、図11のようにその先端に段差21pを形成しておき、それを挿入口2tの入口近傍に設けた座面2zに当接させるようにすることもできる。
【0075】
これによっても、回転力伝達杆7の戻り阻止は、回転力伝達杆7の中胴部に設けた段差7pとストッパ体21の雄ねじ部21mの先端のストッパ部21sとの当接によって達成される。いずれにしても、ストッパ体が螺着されるねじ孔部23に形成されるねじは、図1に示したごとく、ウオームホイール4の雌ねじ部4fに引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aを螺合させるときウオーム5を右回転させるようにしている場合、左ねじとされる。
【0076】
このようにしておけば、回転力伝達杆7を逆転(左回転:矢印22)させたとき、ストッパ体21がその回転に引きずられて、ねじ孔部23から緩み出ることはない。このストッパ体21によって回転力伝達杆7の逆転時の後退が阻止されれば、ウオーム5とウオームホイール4との噛みあいが外れるのを回避して、ウオーム5がウオームホイール4を安定して逆転させ、引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aを雌ねじ部4fから解脱させることができるのである。因みに、図8の例ではウオーム20が軸方向には殆ど変位できない状態となっているので、ストッパ体を準備したりねじ孔部を設けておく必要はない。
【0077】
次に、ウオームホイールを内装することができる柱状受具について述べる。先ず、埋設すべき構造材の幅にふさわしい長さの丸棒を準備し、図6の右側に示した端面2e中の仮想線24の位置で左右に二分割する。図の左側は柱状受具2の断面図を表しているが、そのハッチングの施されたところが長手方向に沿って分割された分割面であるとみなして説明する。
【0078】
各分割体の分割面には、ウオームホイールの半厚みを僅かに超えるだけの円形輪郭した格納用凹み25、それに連なるようにウオームと回転力伝達杆とをその半厚み分嵌めるための挿脱用凹み26、その先端に軸承部11を形成するための半厚み分の軸承用凹み27が彫り込まれる。そして、図5の場合にはウオームホイール4だけを、図8の場合にはウオームホイール4とウオーム20とを一方の分割体の対応する収納凹みに装填し、他の分割体を合わせて柱状に戻す。
【0079】
対面密着させた状態で合わせ面周部に適宜な溶接を施して一体化し、溶接部をサンディングするなどして無用な突起が残らないように整形すればよい。このようにすれば、ウオームギヤ機構を内装した柱状受具としておくことができ、その安定した動きを確保して所望する締付力を発揮させることができる。
【0080】
図12は、鋳塊を金型にかけて鍛造した分割体品の一例である。所要の凹み25,26,27のほかに、必要に応じて駄肉を落として軽量化を図るための凹み28も設けられている。一方の合わせ面には小さな突起29,29が設けられ、他方には対応する位置に小さな凹み30,30が形成される。これらを図13の(b)や(c)のように嵌合させれば、自ずと収容凹み25,26,27が収容空間として完全な所望する形になる。
【0081】
縁部には図12のように幾つかの面取り部31が設けられているので、図13のように溶接32を施す際に面取り部を溶接開先として使うことができる。ストッパ体をねじ込むためのねじ孔部23が図12に仮想線で表されているが、これは溶接によって円柱状に一体化させてから加工して与えられる。このように鍛造品としておけば、量産は容易となり又コストダウンも図りやすくなる。
【0082】
ところで、ウオーム5は略先鋭部5a(図5を参照)をもってその回転の安定を図るようにしているが、図3の(a)に表したツール33に代えて(b)に示した略先鋭部を持たないツール34としてもよい。これは、ウオーム5の先端部5pが略平坦となっているので、図14に示すような当接面2bが柱状受具2に形成される。
【0083】
この場合ウオーム5の歯先の全部が柱状受具2内に収まりきれなければ、図示したように敢えて一部を覗かせるようにしてもよい。その覗き部分35は柱状受具の表面が破れたかのようになるが、構造材に緊結力を加えるにおいて特に支障をきたすものでない。構造材が木質などであれば、覗き出たウオームが構造材を削り込むことになるが、これ又問題となるほどのことはない。
【0084】
以上は全て片引き構造の場合を述べた。次に、両引き構造について説明する。図2の(a)を参照して、この場合、上記したホイール内装型柱状受具2、その雌ねじ部4fに螺合する雄ねじ部3aを一端に備えた引張棒3、その他端に形成される雄ねじ部3bに螺着されるスリーブ体41、そのスリーブ体のねじ孔41aの反対側のねじ孔41bに螺着される雄ねじ部42aを持つ連結棒42、この連結棒の他端の雄ねじ部42bが螺合される雌ねじ部17fを持った他の柱状受具17から構成される。この例においては、引張棒3,スリーブ体41及び連結棒42が引張棒に対応し、柱状受具17が抜け止め部に相当することになる。
【0085】
因みに、雄ねじで代表的に述べれば、雄ねじ部3a,3b,42a,42bは全て右ねじとしておく。尚、柱状受具17は従来技術の項で説明したねじ孔刻設型柱状受具であってもよいし、ホイール内装型柱状受具であってもよい。いずれにしても雄ねじ部42bを貫通させて螺着の完全を図ることができるようにしておくことが好ましい。柱状受具から雄ねじの先端が突出することによって削り込まれても差し支えない構造材が採用される限りは問題ない。勿論、ねじの突出に支障がある場合には雄ねじ部の先端が柱状受具内に留まるように寸法的な配慮を施しておけばよい。
【0086】
このような部材からなる緊結金具は、図7のDの部分に適用される。先ず、他の柱状受具であるねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17が図15に表した第一構造材である梁13に埋設され、梁13へ挿入される連結棒42を柱状受具17の雌ねじ部17fに螺合させる。梁13に納まりきれなかった部分を第二構造材である通し柱16に挿通してから、図16に示すようにその他端の雄ねじ部42aにスリーブ体41を螺着させる。スリーブ体41には図4に示すように図では左右に伸びる切り溝41gが設けられており、これに図15に仮想線で表した薄鉄片43を掛けるなどして回せばよい。
【0087】
一方、第三構造材である梁36(図16を参照)では、ホイール内装型柱状受具2がその仕口近傍で横断するように埋設され、梁36中を延びてウオームホイール4の雌ねじ部4fに到達する引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aを予めねじ端まで螺合しておく。ねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17における雌ねじ部17fでの螺合や、スリーブ体41における雄ねじ部42aとの螺着は仮の噛みあわせ程度でよい。ホイール内装型柱状受具2では雄ねじ部3aをねじ端までねじ込んでおくとはいえ、それが少々不十分なものであっても差し支えない。
【0088】
梁36を運んで、引張棒3の雄ねじ部3bをスリーブ体41のねじ孔41aに臨ませる。引張棒3の先端をスリーブ体41に少し噛みあわせるなどしてアライメントがとれれば、ホイール内装型柱状受具2にツール33又は34(図3を参照)を挿入し、電動工具で右回転させる。ウオームホイール4の左回転で引張棒3の雄ねじ部3aは、図2の(a)の状態のように雌ねじ部4fに一杯一杯螺合される。こうなると、ウオームホイール4と引張棒3とは一体化されたことになり、従って強く螺合させた引張棒3に以後回転力が与えられることになる。
【0089】
引張棒3は図1に示すようにスリーブ体41に対して右回転(矢印9を参照)となるので、その雄ねじ部3bがねじ孔41aとの螺着を進める。雄ねじ部3bがねじ孔端まで螺進した時点でスリーブ体41が右回転を始める。連結棒42(図2の(a)を参照)の雄ねじ部42aとの螺着が進み、雄ねじ部42aがねじ孔41bのねじ端まで螺進すると、連結棒42が右回転を始める。
【0090】
その結果、連結棒の雄ねじ部42bが、ねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17の雌ねじ部17fとの螺合を進める。所定のトルクが発生するまでウオーム5が回転されれば、図7に示したようにホイール内装型円柱状受具2とねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17とが、引張棒3,スリーブ体41,連結棒42によって引き寄せられる。これによって、通し柱16は梁13,36により強力に挟みつけられ、通常は接合操作不可能となる箇所であるにもかかわらず締結操作が実現される。
【0091】
ところで、図1のように、スリーブ体41の一部、例えば略中央に鍔状部41fを設けておき、ウオーム5によりウオームホイール4を介して引張棒3を回転させた際に、鍔状部41fが図7のように通し柱16に当接するようにしておけば(図中の拡大部分を参照)、その鍔状部とねじ孔刻設型柱状受具17とによって梁13と通し柱16との緊結状態を増強しておくことができる。
【0092】
尚、スリーブ体41におけるねじの噛みあわせは、図2の(a)のねじ孔41a,41bのねじ奥端までとすることに代えて、(b)のように雄ねじ部3b,42aのねじ端までとしてもよいし、(c)のように雄ねじ部3bが雄ねじ部42aに突き当たるまでとしてもよい。又、ほぞは設けなくても差し支えないが、この両引きにおいて図7に示したようにほぞ45とほぞ孔46を設け、それを貫通させるようにすることもできる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a screw-type connector for building structure materials, and more specifically, a columnar receiver embedded so as to cross in the vicinity of a joint of the building structure material, and a columnar receiver penetrating another building structure material. The present invention relates to a building structural material joining fixture capable of fastening a plurality of objects to be joined by means of a tension bar that is screw-fastened in a T-shape.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Tightening metal fittings that allow a wooden column and a beam to be fastened or fixed to a base by screwing a tension rod into the female cylindrical support in the center in the longitudinal direction are often used. Are known. For example, JP-A-9-60124 discloses an example thereof.
[0003]
More specifically, the cylindrical receiving member has a diameter of, for example, about 30 mm and a length of about 120 mm, and is embedded so as to cross the beam at a location separated by about 200 mm from the joint of the 120 mm square beam. A female screw having a diameter of about 10 mm provided so as to traverse at the center of the cylindrical holder has a screw hole engraved column receiving so that its axis is horizontal, that is, coincides with the axis of the beam. The embedding posture of the tool is adjusted.
[0004]
If the column is also 120 mm square, the tension rod 3 shown in the middle part of FIG. 17 having a male screw with a diameter of 10 mm at the tip is about 330 mm long, and is horizontal from the side of the column 16 toward the joint of the beam 51. If the head 3h is rotated with a spanner or a hexagon wrench after the head is inserted into the washer 3w, the beam 51 can be fixed to the column 16 by the cylindrical holder 17 and the washer 3w. it can.
[0005]
In such a fastener, the operation space 52 must be secured on the axially extending side of the tension bar in order to rotate the head of the tension bar. Therefore, the beam is arranged at the same height from the left and right with respect to the through column. When the structure shown in the upper part of FIG. 17 is used, it can no longer be used. In this case, as shown in the figure, the beams 13 and 36 are provided with recesses 53 and 54 that open upward, and the nut 55 is hung on the long tension rod 3A inserted from the column 16 toward the beam 13. Then, the tension rod 3A protruding to the right is passed through a horizontal hole provided in the beam 36, and a nut 56 is hung at the recess 54.
[0006]
Such a double pulling structure may be accompanied by a slight risk that the mounting structure becomes complicated, the assembling work becomes complicated, and in some cases, the pulling structure may be detached as compared with the single pulling structure described above. In addition, a large cross-sectional defect occurs in the recessed portion, and the strength and rigidity inherent in the beam cannot be fully exhibited. Of course, since the dent tends to be as shallow as possible, the tension bar tends to be shifted to the upper surface side (in the case of the figure) or the lower surface side of the beam, and it is difficult to achieve tight binding by the force evenly distributed in the joint.
[0007]
When the column 16 is attached to the base 15 as shown in the lower part of FIG. 17, it is fixed by an anchor 58 to the foundation and a screw rod 59 to the column by using an L-shaped bracket 57. . This is because there is no longer any room for fixing the tension bar to the cylindrical holder at this location, so that the fixing structure becomes complicated as shown in the figure and the number of parts used increases.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, so that the fixing operation of the tension bar can be performed anywhere, that is, the operation space for screwing the tension bar to the cylindrical support does not exist on the axial extension line side of the tension bar. However, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-146792 proposes a structure that enables a tightening operation and that can realize a double pulling structure without a large cross-sectional defect.
[0009]
When a T-shaped fastening bracket is used, the above-described tension rod is composed of two members, a first member having a male screw at one end and a rotating head at the other end, and a female screw that can be screwed to the male screw. At the end, but is mostly solid and comprises a second member in which a wedge advancement / retraction groove is formed at a position where the cylindrical receiver is inserted. On the other hand, the cylindrical receiver has no internal thread in its center, and is a simple insertion hole. However, this cylindrical receiver is hollow, and is a wedge-displacement-type cylindrical receiver that includes a wedge body that is axially displaceable and a child screw that boosts the wedge body.
[0010]
(Please refer to Fig. 3 of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-146792)
For example, a cylindrical holder is embedded in the beam, and the second member is inserted from the end of the beam. When the second member is pushed in until the wedge advance / retreat groove reaches the cylindrical holder, the wedge body is pushed to the extent that the wedge body is slightly crossed by the second member by the screw advance of the child screw in the cylindrical holder. The first member is inserted from the opposite side of the column, and the male screw coming out of the column is screwed to the female screw of the second member. Thereafter, if the wedge body is advanced by turning the internal screw in the cylindrical receiver, the second member moves slightly in the axial direction together with the first member, and the beam is strongly fixed to the column by this wedge action.
[0011]
(Please refer to Fig. 3 of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-146792)
Tightening fittings attached to columns and beams will not be removed afterwards, but in the event that it becomes necessary, the cylindrical holder is pressed with a smaller diameter on the opposite side of the child screw with a wedge in between. A screw hole is provided. If the push screw is moved forward by retreating the slave screw and the wedge body is pushed back, a gap is generated between the second member and the wedge body, and the tight state can be released. In addition, if a hexagonal wrench is inserted from the axial direction of a wedge displacement type cylindrical holder and the child screw and the push screw are rotated, the displacement can be given arbitrarily.
[0012]
(Please refer to Fig. 9 of JP2001-146792)
If a single-pull structure is acceptable, it is as described above. However, if a double-pull structure is used, a sleeve body is used instead of the first member, and the female thread portion of the second member is changed to a male thread. That's fine. Then, a screw rod, which is a third member, is screwed onto the opposite side of the sleeve body, and the opposite end is screwed into the screw hole engraving type columnar receiver described in JP-A-9-60124. Just keep it. The final binding operation is such that the second member pulls the third member through the sleeve body by advancing the wedge body in the wedge advance / retreat groove of the second member as described above. This type of tight structure can be applied to any location shown in FIG.
[0013]
By the way, the tightening force is exerted through the taper surface by advancing the wedge body. Needless to say, a large friction acts on the taper surface, which is necessary for screwing the child screw. The rotational force becomes extremely large. In addition, the axial force to be applied to the first member or the like cannot be determined based on the torque exerted on the child screw, but the operation for defining the advancement amount of the wedge body so as to give the desired axial force. Is a difficult technique. Also, the processing accuracy of the wedge advance / retreat groove is required to be extremely high.
[0014]
In addition, since the symmetrically wedge advance / retreat groove is formed in the second member, a cross-sectional defect portion is formed in the second member itself, and a thick bar is required to exert a desired tightening force. However, there is also a problem that the size of the tight fittings is forced to increase. Of course, the advancement and retraction of the wedge body is limited to the generation of the fastening force based on the axial displacement of the tension bar, and it is impossible to rotate the tension bar by rotating the child screw. Therefore, all of the screwing operations must be completed before tightening, and there is a drawback that the application as a tightening bracket is narrowed.
[0015]
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and its object is to enable a tightening structure that can be applied without causing a large cross-sectional defect in a structural material not only in single pulling but also in double pulling. The simplification and operability of the product make it easy to exert stable movement and the desired size of binding force, and it is less likely to be constrained by the space for tightening operation, and there is no cross-sectional defect in the bracket itself. It is providing the screw type connector for building structural materials which implement | achieved.
[0016]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, a receiving tool is embedded in the vicinity of a mouth of a building structural material, and a female screw portion that is threadedly engaged with a male screw portion at one end of a tension bar that extends through the other structural material is provided in the receiving device. The fitting is formed with a fitting hole into which the male threaded portion of the tension bar can be inserted, and the female threaded portion is provided so as to be freely rotatable in the receiving tool around the axis line that coincides with the axial center of the fitting hole. Formed at the center of the worm wheel, the outer periphery of the worm wheel is engaged with a worm that is rotated by a rotational force transmission rod inserted into the support, and the male screw part pre-engaged with the female screw part is rotated by the worm. A retaining portion that is formed at the other end of the tension bar and can exert a tightening force by generating a large joining force by being screwed more strongly or by applying a rotational force to the tension screw that is strongly screwed. Can be used to tie structural materials together It is applied to the building structure member joining fixture on. Refer to FIG. 1 for the features.
The receiver 2 has a columnar shape that is embedded in the vicinity of the joint and crosses the building structural material. The female screw portion 4f is disposed in the middle in the longitudinal direction of the receiver 2. The rotational force transmission rod 7 is the axis of the columnar receiver 2. It is inserted from the end face 2e of the receiving device in a direction crossing 2a, and the worm 5 is also arranged in a posture having the same crossing angle and is engaged with the worm wheel 4.
[0017]
The female thread portion 4f is formed as a right-hand thread, and the worm wheel 4 is rotated leftward (see arrow 8 in the figure) by rotating the worm 5 clockwise (see arrow 10 in FIG. 1) when viewed from the tension rod screwing side. It is good to set so that
[0018]
As shown in FIG. 10A, an arcuate recess 4a into which a part of the worm 5 is fitted is preferably formed at the center of the worm wheel 4 in the tooth width direction.
[0019]
As shown in FIG. 5, the worm 5 is integral with the rotational force transmission rod 7, and it is convenient that the worm 5 can be taken out from the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 after the operation of joining the structural members.
[0020]
As shown in FIG. 5, a bearing portion 11 that allows rotation of the worm 5 but prevents forward movement may be formed at a location where the worm 5 of the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 is disposed. .
[0021]
As shown in FIG. 11, a screw hole portion 23 into which a stopper body 21 for screwing back the rotational force transmission rod 7 is screwed into the insertion port 2 t of the rotational force transmission rod 7 of the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2. Is formed. The screw formed in the screw hole is preferably a left-hand screw when the worm 5 is rotated to the right during the joining operation.
[0022]
Referring to FIG. 12, the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 has a divided structure that is divided into two along the longitudinal direction, and a dent that accommodates a worm wheel, a worm, and a rotational force transmission rod on the mating surface side of each divided body. 25, 27, and 26 are formed, and at least the worm wheel is loaded and facing each other as shown in FIG. Good.
[0023]
Referring to FIG. 2 (a), a wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 in which a worm wheel 4 having a female threaded portion 4f formed at the center is incorporated, and a male threaded portion 3a that engages with the female threaded portion 4f at one end. A tension rod 3 provided, a sleeve body 41 to be screwed into a male screw portion 3b formed at the other end of the tension rod 3, and a connection having a male screw portion 42a to be screwed from the opposite side of the screw hole 41a of the sleeve body. It is set as the structure provided with the rod 42 and the other columnar receiving tool 17 by which the other end of the connecting rod is screwed together. In this way, as shown in the upper part of FIG. 7, first, the other columnar receiver 17 is embedded in the first structural member 13 so as to cross in the vicinity of the joint. After the connecting rod 42 inserted into the first structural member 13 is screwed into the columnar receiving member 17, the portion that does not enter the first structural member 13 is inserted into the second structural member 16, and the male screw portion at the tip thereof The sleeve body 41 is screwed to 42a. On the other hand, the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 is embedded in the third structural member 36 so as to cross in the vicinity of the joint, and extends through the third structural member 36 and is screwed in advance to the female thread portion 4f of the worm wheel 4. The tension rod 3 is screwed to the sleeve body 41 by the rotation of the worm wheel. The rotation of the sleeve body 41 caused by continuing the rotation of the worm wheel 4 causes the connecting rod 42 to be strongly screwed to the other columnar receiver 17, and the second structural member 16 is connected to the first structural member 13 and the third structural member 36. The operation of being tightened so as to be sandwiched between the two is made possible by the rotation of the torque transmission rod 7 (see FIG. 1).
[0024]
As shown in FIG. 2, the sleeve body 41 is provided with a hook-like portion 41f. When the worm wheel 4 is rotated by the worm 5, the hook-like portion 41f is second as shown in the enlarged display portion in FIG. The structure material 16 can be brought into contact with each other, and finally, the tightness between the first structure material 13 and the second structure material 16 can be improved by the flange-shaped portion 41f and the other columnar receivers 17. Keep it like that. As shown in FIG. 1, the female thread portion 4f is formed as a right-hand thread, and the worm wheel 4 is rotated counterclockwise (see arrow 8) when viewed from the tension rod screwing side by the clockwise rotation of the worm 5 (see arrow 10). The male screw portions 3a, 3b, 42a, and 42b formed at both ends of the tension bar 3 and the connecting bar 42 (see FIG. 2) are preferably right-handed screws.
[0025]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, since the worm gear mechanism is incorporated in the columnar support, a large joining force is generated by meshing the tension rods, or a rotational force is applied to the tension rods in a strongly screwed state. Fastening with the screw element can be realized easily. The torque adjustment for generating the fastening force is much easier than the wedge type, and it is less likely that the torque becomes insufficient or an extraneous torque is applied.
[0026]
Since the worm that rotates the worm wheel that is screwed with the tension bar is operated from the end face side of the columnar support, the operating space is not required on the axial extension side of the tension bar, so in the case of pulling In addition, the applicability is greatly improved even in the case of double pulling. The structural material that is the object to be joined does not cause a large cross-sectional defect, and the fastening metal fitting itself does not have a cross-sectional defect part, so that the metal fitting is further reduced in size and lightened.
[0027]
If the rotational force transmission rod is inserted from the end face in the direction crossing the axis of the columnar holder, and the worm is placed in the posture with the same crossing angle and meshed with the worm wheel, it will be in the wheel interior type columnar holder. The worm gear mechanism and the rotational force transmission rod can be stored compactly. In addition, since the rotational force transmission rod extends so as to extend from the axis of the wheel-incorporated columnar holder, the electric tool for rotating the rotational force transmission rod is less likely to interfere with a nearby structural material. This improves operability for binding.
[0028]
The direction of the spiral winding of the worm is adjusted so that the female thread provided on the worm wheel to which the tension rod is screwed is a right-hand thread, and the worm wheel is rotated counterclockwise by the right rotation of the worm when viewed from the tension rod screwing side. If it is set, when the worm is rotated to rotate the worm wheel, the screwing of the female thread portion and the tension rod can be promoted. When screwing proceeds to the meshing end, the tension rod is rotated clockwise by a worm wheel that rotates in the columnar support, and the tension rod can be continuously screwed to other screw elements by clockwise rotation. The fastening can be completed by a series of operations.
[0029]
If an arc-shaped recess is formed in the center of the worm wheel in the tooth width direction, a contact area between the tooth surface of the worm wheel and the tooth surface of the worm wheel is recessed. It becomes larger than when there is not, and torque transmission in the worm gear mechanism is facilitated. In addition, the worm axis and the worm wheel are brought close to each other, the space that must be secured in the wheel interior type columnar bracket is narrowed, and this contributes to downsizing as a fastener. Can do.
[0030]
If the worm is integrated with the rotational force transmission rod for rotating it, the worm wheel can be rotated remotely by rotating the end of the rotational force transmission rod in the end space of the wheel interior type columnar support Can be made. Needless to say, the rotation force transmission rod is pushed in at the time of rotation, but the worm can be taken out together with the rotation force transmission rod if it is rotated slightly backward.
[0031]
As a result, only the worm wheel remains in the columnar holder after the tightening operation, and the worm can be used to rotate the worm wheel of the columnar holder embedded in another place. If the worm is made into a tool in this way, the number of parts of the fastening hardware is also reduced, and it becomes possible to provide an inexpensive hardware.
[0032]
If a bearing is provided at the far end of the location where the worm of the wheel-mounted columnar support is placed, this will prevent the worm being pushed forward and prevent the worm from moving forward in the axial direction, and maintain stable rotation of the worm. Smooth engagement of the female thread portion of the worm wheel and the tension rod is achieved.
[0033]
If a screw hole is formed to screw the stopper body into the insertion port of the rotational force transmission rod of the wheel interior type columnar holder, the stopper body prevents the rotational force transmission rod from retreating, and the worm rotates during the worm reverse operation. And the worm wheel can be prevented from being disengaged. As a result, even if the worm tends to be pushed out during reverse rotation, the worm wheel can be stably rotated and the tension bar can be released from the female thread portion.
[0034]
If the screw hole for screwing the stopper body that prevents the rotational force transmission rod from retreating is a left-hand thread, when the rotational force transmission rod is rotated in the reverse direction, the stopper body is dragged by the rotation and screwed. The loosening of the worm wheel and the worm wheel can be maintained, and stable reversal of the worm wheel can be ensured.
[0035]
If the wheel interior type columnar holder is divided into two parts along the longitudinal direction, and if the dent to accommodate the worm wheel, worm, and rotational force transmission rod is formed on the opposite side of each divided body, then at least It is easy to manufacture a columnar receiver that exerts a tightening force by the worm gear mechanism by welding and integrating the peripheral portions of the joint surface with the worm wheel loaded and facing.
[0036]
A wheel-incorporated column-shaped holder in which a worm wheel that forms an internal thread portion is internally provided; a tension bar having an external thread portion that engages with the internal thread portion at one end; a sleeve body that is screwed into an external thread portion formed at the other end; If a connecting rod having a male threaded portion screwed from the opposite side of the screw hole of the sleeve body and another columnar receiver having a female threaded portion to which the other end of the connecting rod is screwed are provided, the worm The wheel can be rotated to screw the tension rod to the sleeve body, and the connecting rod can also be strongly screwed to the other columnar receiver through the rotation of the sleeve body. As a result, the structural material can be assembled by a series of operations of the rotational force transmission rod, and it is also possible to perform double pull fastening at a location where the joining operation is impossible on the axis.
[0037]
If the sleeve is provided with a hook-like portion and the hook-like portion can be brought into contact with the second structural member when the tension rod is rotated by the worm through the worm wheel, the hook-like portion and the other The tightness between the first structural material and the second structural material can be improved by the columnar support.
[0038]
The female thread part of the worm wheel is provided with a right-hand thread, and the worm's spiral winding direction is set so that the worm wheel rotates counterclockwise as viewed from the tension rod screwing side by rotating the worm to the right. If the male thread portions formed at both ends of each rod are set as right-hand threads, the tightening operation of the double-drawing metal fittings is achieved as a series of movements by the right-hand rotation operation of the rotational force transmission rod.
[0039]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Below, the screw type connector for building structure materials which concerns on this invention is demonstrated in detail based on drawing which showed the embodiment. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a main part of a screw-type connector 1 for a building structure material capable of tightly bonding wood structure materials, which are objects to be joined, and respective rotation directions.
[0040]
This metal fitting is attached to a cylindrical holder 2 made of metal or hard plastic that is buried so as to cross in the vicinity of the joint of the structural material, and an internal thread portion provided at a middle portion in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical holder. A tension bar 3 screwed through another structural material (a workpiece to be joined), and a clamping force can be exerted on the opposing structural material via a retaining portion (not shown) at the other end of the tension bar. It is what I did.
[0041]
More specifically, a worm gear mechanism 6 including a worm wheel 4 and a worm 5 for rotating the worm wheel 4 is introduced into the cylindrical receiver 2. The worm wheel 4 is mounted in a substantially central portion in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical receiving member 2 so as to be free to rotate, and a female screw portion 4f into which the tension rod 3 is screwed is formed at the central portion.
[0042]
As shown in FIG. 2 (a), the wheel interior type cylindrical receiver 2 is provided with a fitting hole 2h substantially concentric with the axis of the female screw portion 4f, and the male screw portion 3a of the tension bar 3 and its The shaft portion 3s in the vicinity of the base portion can be inserted. In the figure, the insertion hole 2h is a transverse hole penetrating the cylindrical receiver 2 in the diametrical direction, and is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the male screw portion 3a.
[0043]
The worm 5 engaged with the outer peripheral portion of the worm wheel 4 is integrated with the rotational force transmitting rod 7 as shown in FIG. 3A, and is an end face of the wheel interior type cylindrical receiver 2 shown in FIG. It can be turned by the rotational force transmission rod 7 inserted from 2e. As shown in FIG. 4, the insertion opening 2t for that purpose is opened obliquely, and the rotational force transmission rod 7 is inserted at an intersecting angle .alpha. With respect to the axis 2a of the cylindrical holder 2 as shown in FIG. . Incidentally, the selection of the angle may be determined in consideration of main dimensions such as the diameter of the cylindrical holder 2 and the diameter of the worm wheel 4 each time.
[0044]
Of course, the worm 5 is arranged in the posture having the same crossing angle as the rotational force transmission rod 7 and is engaged with the worm wheel 4. However, if the worm 5 is pulled out after being slightly reversed, It can be taken out from the columnar receiver 2. Accordingly, only the worm wheel 4 is left in the columnar receiver 2 after the tightening operation, and the worm can be used for rotating the worm wheel of the columnar receiver embedded in another place thereafter. .
[0045]
Regardless of whether the rotational force transmission rod is integrated with the worm 5 or separated from the worm 20 as shown in FIG. As will be described, the male screw portion 3a preliminarily engaged with the female screw portion 4f shown in FIG. It is possible to apply a rotational force in the direction of the arrow 9 to the tension rod 3 that is screwed or strongly screwed. The female thread portion 4f is formed as a right-hand thread, while the worm wheel 4 is rotated leftward (arrow 8) when viewed from the screwing side of the tension rod 3 by the rightward rotation of the arrow 10 of the worm 5. The direction of the spiral winding is set.
[0046]
By the way, as shown in FIG. 5, the wheel interior type cylindrical receiver 2 has a bearing portion 11 that allows rotation of the worm 5 and prevents forward movement at a position where the worm 5 is disposed. Is formed (see also FIG. 6, which is a cross-sectional view drawn by removing the worm gear mechanism 6 from the cylindrical receiver 2). That is, there is provided a recess that restricts the axial displacement of the worm 5 that is operated to rotate freely, and also exhibits a bearing function that suppresses rotational shake. Therefore, a substantially sharpened portion 5a is formed at the back end of the worm 5 as shown in FIG. 5 so that the rotation can be stabilized by using a needle bearing mechanism.
[0047]
If the structural metal fitting is configured as described above, the fastening force can be easily generated as described below. First, the case where it applies to the part A of FIG. 7 is demonstrated. In this case, the tension bar 3 is provided with a male screw portion 3a which is screwed with the cylindrical receiver 2 at one end, and a retaining portion 3k is provided at the other end. The wheel interior type cylindrical receiver 2 is embedded so as to cross in the vicinity of the joint of the diagonal member 12 so that the axis of the internally mounted worm wheel 4 is vertical.
[0048]
The head 3h and the washer 3w constituting the retaining portion are inserted into the beam 13 in an upward position, and the male screw portion 3a of the tension rod 3 is lightly engaged with the female screw portion of the worm wheel 4. If a shallow groove 2g perpendicular to or parallel to the axis of the worm wheel 4 shown in FIG. 1 is formed on the other end face of the cylindrical holder 2, the female screw in the case of FIG. The opening posture can be corrected by knowing the opening direction of the part and inserting a thin iron piece and rotating it.
[0049]
Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the rotational force transmission rod 7 is inserted into the cylindrical holder 2 and is rotated lightly so that the worm 5 at the tip is engaged with the worm wheel 4. An operator is positioned in the space in front of the paper surface of FIG. 7, and the chucked portion 14 of FIG. 5 is gripped by the electric tool and rotated in the direction of the arrow 10. The worm 5 is operated in a pushing manner, but the axial movement of the worm 5 is prevented and stable rotation of the worm 5 is ensured. And screwing proceed smoothly.
[0050]
If the rotational force transmission rod 7 is rotated until a desired torque is generated, the male thread portion 3a of the tension rod 3 is drawn into the cylindrical holder 2 by the rotation of the worm wheel 4, and a desired axial force is applied to the tension rod 3. Can be made. Since the tightening force is generated through the pull-out preventing portion 3k of the tension bar, the diagonal member 12 and the horizontal member (beam) 13 are tightly coupled.
[0051]
By the way, the rotational force transmission rod 7 may be inserted from the end face 2e in parallel with the axis 2a of the cylindrical holder 2 as shown in FIG. 9, but it should be inserted in the intersecting direction as shown in FIG. In this case, the worm gear mechanism 6 and the rotational force transmission rod 7 can be stored in the cylindrical holder 2 in a compact manner. In addition, since the rotational force transmission rod 7 is configured to extend away from the axis of the cylindrical holder 2, an electric tool (not shown) that rotates the rotational force transmission rod may interfere with a nearby structural material. In many cases, the operability for tightening can be improved.
[0052]
Needless to say, the rotational force transmission rod 7 can be rotated through the hexagon wrench hole 14a as shown in FIG. The receiving device 2 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and may have a polygonal cross section, for example, and can be embedded so as to be inserted into a structural material, and it is desired to avoid unnecessary stress concentration. It is sufficient that the columnar body can receive the joining force of the size.
[0053]
Further, the insertion hole 2h (see FIG. 2A) provided in the columnar holder may be a transverse hole as described above, or the male screw portion 3a is inserted as shown in FIG. 2B. It may be a bag-like hole 2n that can only stay. However, if the transverse hole is used, the male threaded portion 3a can be screwed into the worm wheel 4 even if the columnar receiver 2 in FIG. It is also possible to reverse the inclination of the rotating force transmission rod 7 shown in FIG. Accordingly, it is possible to leave room for selection in the setting of the rotational force transmission rod 7 according to the upsetting state of the neighboring structural material, and the convenience is improved as described above.
[0054]
Incidentally, the interior of the worm wheel 4 to the columnar holder 2 will be described later. In order to smooth the rotation and suppress friction during transmission of the rotational force from the worm 5, a lubricant such as grease is provided in the columnar holder. Or may be inserted after applying grease to the worm 5.
[0055]
Returning to FIG. 7, the case where the present invention is applied to portions B and C will be briefly described below. In the portion B, the tension bar 3 is an anchor bolt, the lower end portion bent in a U shape functions as a retaining portion, and the shaft portion extends upward through the base 15. In this case, the column 16 in which the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 is embedded in advance is lowered, the shaft portion of the anchor bolt is inserted, and when reaching the columnar receiver 2, a rotational force transmission rod (not shown) is turned to turn the male screw at the tip. The portion may be screwed into the female thread portion of the worm wheel and tightened.
[0056]
In the portion C, the retaining portion of the tension bar is the screw hole engraved columnar receiver 17 introduced in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-60124, and the male thread portion 3c formed at the other end of the tension rod 3 is the diagonal member 18. It is pre-screwed to the columnar receiving member 17 embedded in. The tension rod 3 protruding leftward from the diagonal member 18 is passed through the column 16, and the shaft portion protruding to the left from the column 16 is inserted into the diagonal member 12 in which the wheel interior type cylindrical receiver 2 is embedded. When the worm wheel is rotated by the rotational force transmission rod in the columnar receiver 2, the screwing proceeds so that the female screw portion 4 f pulls the tension rod 3.
[0057]
When the screwing reaches the meshing end, the tension rod 3 is rotated clockwise by the internal thread portion 4f that continues to rotate in the columnar support 2, and the tension rod 3 is a screw hole engraved columnar shape that is another screw element. It is rotated clockwise by the receiving member 17 and is strongly screwed. In addition, it is not impossible to use a wheel interior type columnar holder instead of the threaded hole engraved columnar receiver 17 on the diagonal member 18 side, but the threaded hole engraved columnar receiver is cheaper. In the final fastening operation from the columnar receiver 2, it is necessary to prevent the rotation of the worm wheel of the wheel-incorporated columnar receiver, so that the screw hole-engraved columnar receiver is sufficient. Many.
[0058]
As can be seen from the above operation, the worm gear mechanism is interposed in the columnar support. A large bonding force can be generated through the. Although a large number of rotations of the worm are required, the screwing can be completed in a very short time of about 1 second by using a power tool. The torque for generating the binding force is much easier to adjust than the wedge type described in the section of the prior art.
[0059]
Since the worm that rotates the worm wheel is operated from the end face side of the columnar support, the space for operation is not required on the axial extension side of the tension bar, and the applicability of the tightening bracket can be improved even for single pulling. Greatly improved. Of course, the structural material that is the object to be joined does not cause a large cross-sectional defect, and the cross-sectional defect part is not formed in the fastening metal fitting itself, so that the size of the metal fitting is reduced and the weight can be easily reduced.
[0060]
In the above example, the female thread provided on the worm wheel to which the tension rod is screwed is set as a right-hand thread, and the worm wheel is rotated counterclockwise as viewed from the tension rod screwing side by the right rotation of the worm. Since the direction of the spiral winding is set, when the worm wheel is rotated by rotating the worm, the female thread part and the tension rod are slightly engaged or the tip of the male thread part is dropped into the inlet of the female thread part. In that case, the subsequent rotation of the worm is a self-contained operation that promotes screwing.
[0061]
FIG. 3A shows an example in which the worm 5 and the rotational force transmission rod 7 are integrated, but in this case, the number of parts as a fastening metal fitting can be reduced, and an inexpensive metal fitting can be provided. Become. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and an engaging claw 19a such as a Phillips screwdriver may be formed at the tip of the rotational force transmission rod 19 and an engaging groove 20a may be provided at the base of the worm 20 as shown in FIG. .
[0062]
Although the worm wheel 20 as well as the worm wheel 4 is left in the columnar holder 2, the worm 20 can be rotated by grasping the outer end portion of the rotational force transmitting rod 19 and rotating it in the end space of the wheel interior type columnar holder. Can still be turned remotely.
[0063]
If the contour of the storage space 2s of the worm 5 is matched to the outer shape of the worm 20 as shown in the figure, the axial displacement of the worm 20 is less likely to occur, so the pushing force against the rotational force transmission rod 19 during rotation is reduced. be able to. On the other hand, the rotational force transmission rod 19 is taken out only by pulling, and therefore, only the rotational force transmission rod can be reused as a tool, but it greatly contributes to the efficiency of the tightening work.
[0064]
In addition, although it does not draw like the tenon provided in the joint in the part of A thru | or C of FIG. 7, it does not cause trouble in particular in forming a tenon. When a tenon is provided, a tension bar may be disposed so as to penetrate the tenon. However, since the tightening force is greatly exerted according to the tightening bracket, the number of tenons can be omitted in many cases. And since it becomes easy to arrange | position a tension rod on the axis line of a structural material, in the example mentioned above, such arrangement | positioning can be easily implement | achieved in the B part of FIG. 7, and the D part mentioned later. it can.
[0065]
This makes it possible to equalize the force distribution at the joint and prevent a biased force from being applied. The object of application of the binding metal fitting is mainly a wooden building structural material, but even a structural material of other materials can be applied as long as it is a structural material that can embed a columnar support. The size may be appropriately selected according to the cross-sectional area and cross-sectional shape of the structural material to be applied.
[0066]
Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 2 as well, as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 10A, an arcuate recess 4a into which a part of the worm 5 fits in the center of the worm wheel 4 in the tooth width direction is provided. Form it. In this way, the contact area between the tooth surface 5t of the worm formed in a spiral shape and the tooth surface 4t of the worm wheel becomes larger than the case where there is no dent in FIG. 10B (thickly hatched portion) Torque transmission in the worm gear mechanism is facilitated.
[0067]
In addition, the distance La between the worm axis 5s and the worm wheel axis 4s can be made shorter than Lb in the case of (b), and the storage space that must be secured in the wheel interior type columnar support is reduced. It is possible to contribute to the downsizing of the fastening hardware.
[0068]
The above description has described the operation of joining the structural materials using the fastening hardware. By the way, it is almost impossible to remove the structural material once joined during construction of the building, but it cannot be said that the necessity is urged. Therefore, an operation of reversing the worm wheel by the worm gear mechanism and releasing the male threaded portion of the tension rod from the female threaded portion of the worm wheel will be described below.
[0069]
Now, the male screw part is in a state of being strongly screwed to the female screw part. This means that the male screw part is screwed to the female screw part up to its thread forming end, and an axial force acts on the tension bar. Means that The tensile force is attracted to the worm wheel by this axial force, but the reaction force is received by the tensile rod screwing side wall 25w of the wheel storage space 25 shown in FIG. .
[0070]
Therefore, if the worm 5 is to be rotated in the opposite direction to that shown in FIG. 1, the friction at the contact surface must be overcome. However, when the worm 5 is reversed, as can be imagined from FIG. 5, the worm 5 is easily removed by the movement guided by the tooth surface of the worm wheel 4 which is not easily rotated. The male screw portion 3a cannot be detached from the female screw portion 4f.
[0071]
Therefore, in the present invention, a stopper body 21 as shown in FIG. 11 is prepared, and consideration is given to stop the rotational force transmission rod 7 from coming out when the arrow 22 is reversed. The stopper body 21 at the right end of the figure shows the appearance in a state where it faces the rotational force transmission rod 7, and the middle portion 21 shows a state where it is inserted into the rotational force transmission rod 7.
[0072]
In the case of this example, a screw hole portion 23 for screwing a hollow stopper body 21 for preventing the rotational force transmission rod 7 from retreating is formed in the insertion port 2t. On the other hand, the stopper body 21 has a vertical through hole 21a for fitting a part of the shaft of the rotational force transmission rod 7 and also has a stopper portion 21s that abuts against a step 7p provided in the middle body portion of the rotational force transmission rod 7. Prepare.
[0073]
The stopper portion 21s is formed at the tip of the male screw portion 21m to be screwed into the screw hole portion 23. Therefore, if the male screw portion 21m is screwed to the full screw hole portion 23, the rotational force transmitting rod 7 in a state where it has entered deeply is inserted. It can be brought into contact with the step 7p. In this case, the depth of the screw hole portion 23, the length of the male screw portion 21m, the position of the step 7p in the rotational force transmission rod 7, etc. are determined so as to correspond to the desired operation.
[0074]
In addition, if a grip 21g as shown in the figure is provided as an operation part for screwing the stopper body 21 and the surface is knurled or a twisting handle 21h represented by an imaginary line is provided, Screwing operation becomes easy. When this operation part is not provided, if a groove as indicated by the symbol 2g in FIG. 1 is provided at the rear end of the male screw part 21m, a screw hole part can be obtained by hooking and turning a thin iron piece. 23 can be easily screwed. On the other hand, if the operation portion is provided, a step 21p can be formed at the tip thereof as shown in FIG. 11, and it can be brought into contact with the seat surface 2z provided near the entrance of the insertion port 2t.
[0075]
Also by this, the return prevention of the rotational force transmission rod 7 is achieved by the contact between the step 7p provided at the middle body portion of the rotational force transmission rod 7 and the stopper portion 21s at the tip of the male screw portion 21m of the stopper body 21. . In any case, the screw formed in the screw hole portion 23 to which the stopper body is screwed is used when the male screw portion 3a of the tension rod 3 is screwed into the female screw portion 4f of the worm wheel 4 as shown in FIG. When the worm 5 is rotated to the right, the left screw is used.
[0076]
In this way, when the rotational force transmission rod 7 is reversely rotated (left rotation: arrow 22), the stopper body 21 is not dragged by the rotation and loosened from the screw hole 23. If the reverse rotation of the rotational force transmission rod 7 is prevented by the stopper body 21, the worm 5 and the worm wheel 4 are prevented from being disengaged, and the worm 5 stably reverses the worm wheel 4. Thus, the male thread 3a of the tension bar 3 can be released from the female thread 4f. Incidentally, in the example of FIG. 8, since the worm 20 is hardly displaced in the axial direction, it is not necessary to prepare a stopper body or provide a screw hole.
[0077]
Next, a columnar holder that can be equipped with a worm wheel will be described. First, a round bar having a length suitable for the width of the structural material to be embedded is prepared, and divided into left and right at the position of the imaginary line 24 in the end face 2e shown on the right side of FIG. The left side of the drawing shows a cross-sectional view of the columnar receiver 2, and the description will be made assuming that the hatched portion is a divided surface divided along the longitudinal direction.
[0078]
A storage recess 25 having a circular outline that slightly exceeds the half-thickness of the worm wheel, and insertion / removal for fitting the worm and the rotational force transmission rod to the half-thickness so as to be connected to the dividing surface of each divided body. The recess 26 and a bearing recess 27 corresponding to a half thickness for forming the bearing portion 11 are carved at the tip thereof. In the case of FIG. 5, only the worm wheel 4 is loaded, and in the case of FIG. 8, the worm wheel 4 and the worm 20 are loaded into the corresponding storage recesses of one divided body, and the other divided bodies are combined into a columnar shape. return.
[0079]
What is necessary is just to shape so that a useless protrusion may not remain | survive by sanding a welding part etc. by carrying out appropriate welding to a mating surface peripheral part in the state which face-to-face contact. If it does in this way, it can be set as the column-shaped holder which equipped the worm gear mechanism internally, The stable movement can be ensured and the desired clamping force can be exhibited.
[0080]
FIG. 12 is an example of a divided product obtained by forging an ingot on a mold. In addition to the required recesses 25, 26, 27, there is also provided a recess 28 for reducing the weight by dropping the waste as necessary. Small protrusions 29 and 29 are provided on one mating surface, and small recesses 30 and 30 are formed at corresponding positions on the other. If these are fitted as shown in FIGS. 13 (b) and 13 (c), the receiving recesses 25, 26 and 27 are naturally in a completely desired shape as the receiving space.
[0081]
Since some chamfered portions 31 are provided at the edge as shown in FIG. 12, the chamfered portion can be used as a welding groove when performing welding 32 as shown in FIG. The screw hole portion 23 for screwing the stopper body is represented by an imaginary line in FIG. 12, but this is given after being integrated into a cylindrical shape by welding. Thus, if it is set as a forged product, mass production becomes easy and cost reduction is also facilitated.
[0082]
By the way, the worm 5 has a substantially sharp portion 5a (see FIG. 5) to stabilize its rotation, but instead of the tool 33 shown in FIG. 3 (a), the substantially sharp portion shown in (b). It is good also as the tool 34 which does not have a part. This is because the tip 5p of the worm 5 is substantially flat, so that the contact surface 2b as shown in FIG.
[0083]
In this case, if not all of the tooth tips of the worm 5 can be accommodated in the columnar receiver 2, a part of the teeth may be dazed as shown in the figure. Although the peeping portion 35 is as if the surface of the columnar receiver was torn, it does not particularly hinder the application of a tightening force to the structural material. If the structural material is wood or the like, the peeping worm will cut out the structural material, but this is also not a problem.
[0084]
The above has described the case of the single-drawing structure. Next, the double pulling structure will be described. Referring to FIG. 2A, in this case, the above-described wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 is formed at the other end of the tension bar 3 provided with one end of a male screw portion 3a screwed to the female screw portion 4f. A sleeve body 41 to be screwed into the male screw portion 3b, a connecting rod 42 having a male screw portion 42a to be screwed into a screw hole 41b on the opposite side of the screw hole 41a of the sleeve body, and a male screw portion 42b at the other end of the connecting rod. Is constituted by another columnar receiving member 17 having a female screw portion 17f to which is screwed. In this example, the tension bar 3, the sleeve body 41, and the connecting bar 42 correspond to the tension bar, and the columnar support 17 corresponds to the retaining portion.
[0085]
Incidentally, if the male screw is representatively described, the male screw portions 3a, 3b, 42a, and 42b are all right-handed screws. The columnar receiver 17 may be the screw hole engraved columnar receiver described in the section of the prior art, or may be a wheel interior columnar receiver. In any case, it is preferable that the male screw portion 42b is penetrated so that the screwing can be completely completed. There is no problem as long as a structural material that can be cut off by protruding the tip of the male screw from the columnar support is adopted. Of course, when there is a hindrance to the protrusion of the screw, dimensional considerations should be taken so that the tip of the male screw portion stays in the columnar receiver.
[0086]
The tight fitting made of such a member is applied to a portion D in FIG. First, the screw hole engraved columnar receiver 17 as another columnar receiver is embedded in the beam 13 as the first structural material shown in FIG. 15, and the connecting rod 42 inserted into the beam 13 is used as the columnar receiver 17. The female screw portion 17f is screwed. After the portion that could not be accommodated in the beam 13 is inserted into the through column 16 that is the second structural member, the sleeve body 41 is screwed to the male screw portion 42a at the other end as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the sleeve body 41 is provided with a cut groove 41 g extending in the left-right direction in the figure, and the sleeve body 41 may be rotated by hanging a thin iron piece 43 represented by an imaginary line in FIG.
[0087]
On the other hand, in the beam 36 (see FIG. 16) which is the third structural member, the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 is embedded so as to cross in the vicinity of the joint, and extends through the beam 36 and is an internal thread portion of the worm wheel 4. The male threaded portion 3a of the tension bar 3 reaching 4f is screwed in advance to the screw end. The screw engagement with the female threaded portion 17f of the screw hole engraved type columnar receiver 17 and the threaded engagement with the male threaded portion 42a of the sleeve body 41 may be about a temporary engagement. In the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2, although the male screw portion 3a is screwed to the screw end, it may be slightly insufficient.
[0088]
The beam 36 is carried so that the male screw portion 3b of the tension rod 3 faces the screw hole 41a of the sleeve body 41. When alignment is obtained by slightly engaging the tip of the tension rod 3 with the sleeve body 41, the tool 33 or 34 (see FIG. 3) is inserted into the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2, and is rotated clockwise by the electric tool. When the worm wheel 4 is rotated counterclockwise, the male threaded portion 3a of the tension rod 3 is fully screwed into the female threaded portion 4f as shown in FIG. In this case, the worm wheel 4 and the tension bar 3 are integrated, and therefore a rotational force is applied to the tension bar 3 that is strongly screwed.
[0089]
As shown in FIG. 1, the tension bar 3 rotates clockwise with respect to the sleeve body 41 (see the arrow 9), so that the male screw portion 3b advances the screwing with the screw hole 41a. When the male screw portion 3b is screwed to the end of the screw hole, the sleeve body 41 starts to rotate clockwise. When the screwing of the connecting rod 42 (see FIG. 2A) with the male screw portion 42a proceeds and the male screw portion 42a advances to the screw end of the screw hole 41b, the connecting rod 42 starts to rotate clockwise.
[0090]
As a result, the male threaded portion 42b of the connecting rod advances the screwing with the female threaded portion 17f of the threaded hole engraving type columnar receiver 17. If the worm 5 is rotated until a predetermined torque is generated, the wheel interior type columnar receiver 2 and the screw hole engraved columnar receiver 17 are connected to the tension bar 3 and the sleeve body 41 as shown in FIG. , Drawn by the connecting rod 42. As a result, the through column 16 is strongly sandwiched between the beams 13 and 36, and the fastening operation is realized regardless of the location where the joining operation is normally impossible.
[0091]
By the way, as shown in FIG. 1, when a hook-like portion 41 f is provided in a part of the sleeve body 41, for example, substantially in the center, and when the tension rod 3 is rotated by the worm 5 via the worm wheel 4, If 41f is in contact with the through-column 16 as shown in FIG. 7 (see the enlarged portion in the figure), the beam 13 and the through-column 16 are connected to each other by the hook-shaped portion and the threaded hole engraving-type column-shaped receiving member 17. The tightness state can be increased.
[0092]
It should be noted that the screw engagement in the sleeve body 41 is not limited to the screw end of the screw holes 41a and 41b in FIG. 2A, but the screw ends of the male screw portions 3b and 42a as shown in FIG. Or it is good also as it is until the external thread part 3b collides with the external thread part 42a like (c). Further, although it is not necessary to provide a tenon, it is also possible to provide a tenon 45 and a tenon hole 46 as shown in FIG.
