Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、壁に横方向に設けられた係止溝付きレールに係止部材を係合させることにより該係止部材を介して壁面に被係止物を係止保持させるための壁面係止装置に係り、特に、横方向に複数段のパネル連結用のレールを差し渡すと共に該レール間にパネルを取り付けて形成されるパネル壁面に適用して極めて有用な壁面係止装置に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来より、壁に横方向にパネル連結用のレールを複数段取り付けて該レール間にパネルを取り付けたパネル壁面があり、また、前記上下のパネルやボード等を接合する接合構造なども各種提案されている（例えば、特開平６−２５７２３７号公報、特開平１１−７１８４４号公報等）。
【０００３】
一方、前記連結用のレールに室内方向に開口する係止溝を設けると共に該係止溝に係合する係合部を有する係止金具を用いて、壁面に各種の被係止物、例えば、フック、ハンガー、小物載置棚等を係止保持させるようにしたものが提供されている。
【０００４】
図７は従来の前記連結レールと係止金具の係合形態を一例として示す断面図であり、Ｗは壁、３１は上下のパネルＰ１，Ｐ２を連結するための連結レールであって、壁Ｗに固定されている。連結レール３１には室内方向に開口する係止溝３２が設けられている。
【０００５】
３５は本体部３６の上端部側に前記係止溝３２に係合する係合部３７を有すると共に下端部側にはパネル壁面Ｗａに当接する当接部３８を有する係止金具であり、該係止金具３５に、例えば、載置棚等の被係止物Ｋを固定して該被係止物Ｋをパネル壁面に係止保持させるようになっている。
【０００６】
前記係止溝３２は斜め上方に至るように湾曲して形成されており、前記係合部３７もこの係止溝３２の形状に対応させるように湾曲して突出している。被係止物Ｋをパネル壁面Ｗａに係止保持させるに際しては、被係止物Ｋの手前側を上方に持ち上げて前記係合部３７を係止溝３２に臨ませ、被係止物Ｋを矢示Ｆ１方向に回転させながら被係止物全体を壁面に対してＦ２方向に接近させ、これにより前記係合部３７を係止溝３２に挿入し、前記当接部３８をパネル壁面Ｗａに当接する。
【０００７】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところが、従来の壁面係止装置にあっては、図７からも明らかなように、被係止物Ｋをパネル壁面Ｗａに取り付けるに際し、被係止物Ｋの手前側を大きく（パネル壁面Ｗａから約４５度）持ち上げた後、回転させながら壁面方向に押し込むようにしているため、パネル壁面Ｗａの比較的高い位置にある連結レール３１に係止金具３５を取り付ける場合には背が届かず、その都度脚立などが必要となるなどの不都合があった。また、最上段に位置するレールでは被係止物Ｋを大きく持ち上げると天井が障害となるため、大きな係止物は係止することができない、という欠点があった。
【０００８】
本発明の目的は、係止部材をレールに係合させるに際し、係止部材を差程大きく持ち上げることなく確実に係合させることができ、しかも係止部材や被係止物を持ち上げるような衝撃があってもみだりに係合が外れたりするおそれのない壁面係止装置を提供することにある。
【０００９】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明に係る壁面係止装置は、
請求項１に記載のものにおいては、壁に横方向に設けられ、室内方向に開口する係止溝を有するレールと、本体部の一端部側には前記係止溝に挿入して係合させる係合部を有すると共に他端部側には壁面に当接する当接部を有する係止部材とからなり、該係止部材を介して壁面に被係止物を係止保持するようにした壁面係止装置において、前記レールの係止溝は水平方向に形成されると共に、前記係止部材の係合部を挿入する方向の少なくとも導入部が斜め下方への傾斜部を有し、係止部材の係合部には前記係止溝の上面に当接する当接係合部と支持軸部とが設けられ、前記レールの係止溝には前記当接係合部が係合する係止部と前記支持軸部を支持する支持凹部とが形成されていて、前記係止部材が、当接係合部、支持軸部及び当接部の少なくとも３点で支持されることを特徴とする。
【００１０】
このような構成により、係止部材の係合部をレールの係止溝の導入部に臨ませて係止部材の後部を若干持ち上げた状態で該係合部を前記係止溝に落とし込むと支持軸部が支持凹部に嵌合し、手を離すと係合部材がその自重で支持軸部を支点として回転することにより、係合部の当接係合部が係止溝の上面に当接し、これと同時に係止部材の他端部側の当接部が壁面に当接する。これにより、係止部材は、当接係合部、支持軸部及び当接部の少なくとも３点で支持されることとなる。
【００１１】
従って、係合部材をレールに係合させるための動作方向は当初だけ係止部材の後部を僅かに持ち上げ、その後はほぼ水平方向に押し込むことによって操作することができる。また、レールに係合保持された係合部材及び被係止物は少なくとも３点で支持されるから確実に係止保持される。
【００１２】
係止部材や被係止物に頭等がぶつかってこれらを持ち上げるような衝撃があっても、支持軸部と支持凹部との嵌合状態が解除されるほどの大きな揺動とはならないから、前記外的衝撃力がなくなると元の状態に復帰する。
【００１３】
請求項２に係るものにおいては、レールが上下のパネルを連結する連結レールであり、壁面がパネル壁面であることを特徴とし、請求項３に係るものにおいては、レールが係止溝を有する本体部と取付壁への取付部との少なくとも２部材からなり、両部材が機械的結合により固着されていることを特徴とし、請求項４に係るものにおいては、レールが少なくとも１個以上の中空部を有することを特徴とし、請求項５に係るものは、係止部材の当接係合部が係合部の先端上面平面に設けられると共に支持軸部が係合部の下面側に突設され、当接部は壁面方向に沿って延びる本体部の下端部に突設されていることを特徴とする。
【００１４】
レールの形態としては、壁面への被係止物の係止保持が可能なように、壁面にレールを埋め込むこともできるが、一般にはパネル又はボード等を連結する連結レールが使用され、また、レールは複数の部材で構成することができる。パネルの厚さ等によってはレールの奥行き幅が広くなることから、レールの軽量化や材料の低減化及びレール自体の強度保持のためにレールに１個又は複数個の中空部が設けられる。また、この中空部にはレール端末において該中空部に嵌合する嵌合部を備えたキャップ等が嵌合される。当接係合部は、一般には係合部の先端上面に平面部として形成され、これが係止溝の上面に密接する形態で係合する。また、支持軸部は係合部の下面側に突設され、例えば、垂直部と傾斜部とからなる断面略「Ｖ」字状をなすように形成されることにより確実な支持支点が得られる。
【００１５】
請求項６に係るものにおいては、係止部材の本体部の上面に、レールの係止溝の開口部の上縁に当接して係止部材の回転が規制されるようにした隆起部が形成されていることを特徴とし、請求項７に係るものにおいては、被係止物が載置棚であり、係止部材の本体部には載置棚を支持する棚受部が水平方向に設けられていることを特徴とし、請求項８に係るものにおいては、被係止物が収納箱であり、係止部材の本体部には収納箱を固定保持するための取付部が設けられていることを特徴とし、請求項９に係るものにおいては、被係止物がフックであり、係止部材の本体部に固着されていることを特徴とし、請求項１０に係るものにおいては、少なくとも前記２部材からなるレールが機械的結合により固着されていることを特徴とする。
【００１６】
本体部の上面にレールの係止溝の開口部上縁に当接して係止部材の回転が規制されるようにした隆起部を形成しておけば、係合部材の回転が規制され、レールの係止溝からの脱落をより確実に阻止することができる。被係止物としては、載置棚や壁掛け式収納箱、或いは衣類掛け用のフック等、その種類は限定されない。載置棚の場合には係合部材の本体部から棚受部が水平方向に設けられ、また、収納箱の場合には本体部に取付部が設けられる。
【００１７】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明に係る壁面係止装置の実施例を図１〜図６に基づいて説明する。
図１は壁面に複数段横設されたレールに係止部材を介して各種の被係止物を係止した状態を示す断面図、図２はその正面図、図３はレールと係止部材の拡大断面図、図４は最上段部のレールと載置棚を係止した中間部のレールを示す断面図、図５は壁掛け式収納箱を係止した状態の中間部のレールと受けレールを示す断面図、図６は被係止物としてフックを設けた例を示す側面図である。
【００１８】
図において、Ｗは壁、１は壁Ｗに横設されるレールであり、実施例ではレール１は上部パネルＰ１と下部パネルＰ２を連結する連結レールとして構成されて壁Ｗに複数段設置されており、前記上下部のパネルＰ１、Ｐ２は取付壁Ｗｂの前面側に適宜の間隔Ｌをおいて設置するようになっている。
【００１９】
前記レール１はアルミ合金の押出により成形されるものであり、室内側（図の左側）に開口する係止溝２が形成され、該係止溝２に係止部材１１を係合保持させて該係止部材１１を介して載置棚その他の被係止物Ｋを壁Ｗに係止保持させるようになっている。前記係止部材１１には壁面Ｗａに沿うようにした本体部１０の上端部側に前記係止溝２に係合する係合部１２が形成されると共に下端部側には壁面Ｗａに当接する当接部１５が形成されている。
【００２０】
本発明においては、図３に示すように、前記レール１の係止溝２は水平方向（横向き）に形成されると共に、前記係止部材１１の係合部１２を挿入する方向の少なくとも導入部９が斜め下方への傾斜部９ａを有し、前記係止部材１１の係合部１２の先端上面側には前記係止溝２の上面２ａに当接する当接係合部１３が形成されると共に前記係合部１２の下面側基端部近傍には支持軸部１４が突成され、前記レール１の係止溝２には前記当接係合部１３が当接係合する係止部３と前記支持軸部１４を支持する支持凹部４とが形成されていて、前記係止部材１１が、当接係合部１３、支持軸部１４及び当接部１５の少なくとも３点で支持されるようになっている。
【００２１】
前記係止部材１１の係合部１２は前記本体部１０の上端部側に横方向に突成され、当接係合部１３は、一般には係合部１２の先端上面に平面部として形成され、これが係止溝２の上面２ａに形成される平面状の係止部３に密接する形態で係合する。また、前記支持軸部１４は、例えば、垂直部１４ａと傾斜部１４ｂとで断面略「Ｖ」字状をなすように形成すると共に、前記支持凹部４を略「Ｖ」溝状に形成することにより確実な支持支点が得られる。
【００２２】
前記レール１のその他の部分は適宜変更することができ、また、図１に示すように、最上段レール１Ｊと中間レール１Ｔとでは構成を異ならせることもできる。図１及び図４の例では、最上段レール１Ｊは最上段のパネルＰ１の上端に配置されると共に天井ＴＢとの間にはパネルを配置しない形式であり、レール１は前記係止溝２を有する本体部１ａと該本体部１ａの後部を上下から挟持する形態になっている断面略「コ」字状をなす取付部１ｂとの２部材で構成し、取付部１ｂの奥壁部をビス止め２１又は釘止め等により取付壁Ｗｂに取り付けた状態で前記取付部１ｂと本体部１ａとを上面からビス２２で固定するようにしてある。また、取付部１ｂの下面側には上部パネルＰ１への打ち込み部１ｃが設けられている。
【００２３】
中間部のレール１Ｔにおいては、図３及び図４に示すように、レール１は前面側の上下部にパネル抱え込み片５、５が形成されると共に上下部方向にパネルへの打ち込み片６、６が形成され、後端部には上方向に前記取付壁Ｗｂへの取付片７が設けられていて該取付片７を前記取付壁Ｗｂにビス止め２１又は釘止め等によって固定するようになっている。そして、レール１の後部には材料の低減及び軽量化のために１個又は複数個の中空部８が形成されている。
【００２４】
図３は図５に示すように被係止物Ｋが壁掛け式収納箱Ｋｂの場合の係止部材１１の例を示しているが、この係止部材１１は使用目的や被係止物Ｋによって種々の形状及び構成を採り入れることができる。また、本体部１０の上面にはレール１の係止溝２の開口部上縁に当接して係止部材１１の回転が規制されるようにした隆起部１６を形成しておけば、係止部材１１が前記支持軸部１４を支点として回転するのを規制することができ、係止部材１１がレール１の係止溝２から脱落するのをより確実に阻止することができる。この形態は特に被係止物Ｋが軽量物である場合等に有利である。
【００２５】
被係止物Ｋとしては、図４及び図５に示すような載置棚Ｋｓや壁掛け式収納箱Ｋｂ、或いは図６に示すような衣類掛け用のフックＫｆ等、その種類は限定されない。載置棚Ｋｓの場合には係止部材１１の本体部１０の上端部から水平方向に支持片１７が設けられると共にその下方に載置棚Ｋｓへの打ち込み片１８が突成され、本体部１０の下部には棚受部１９が水平方向に設けられている。この棚受部１９の端部には、図２に示すように、エンドキャップ２３が嵌合される。
【００２６】
図１及び図５に示すように、被係止物Ｋが壁掛け式収納箱Ｋｂの場合には、前記係止部材１１は本体部１０の上端部の支持片１７は前記のものと同様であるが、本体部１０に取付ネジ孔１０ａが設けられ、該取付ネジ孔１０ａを介して取付ネジ２４を壁掛け式収納箱Ｋｂの奥壁板２５にねじ込むことにより取り付けられる。この壁掛け式収納箱Ｋｂは前面側の取っ手（図示しない）で引出し２６を引き出し得るようになっている。２７は収納箱Ｋｂの背面側下部に取り付けたストッパーである。
【００２７】
図１、図２及び図５に示すように、最下部のパネルＰ２の下端は受けレール１Ｇで受けられ、該受けレール１Ｇは下端側に受部２８を有し、最下部のパネルＰ２の裏面側を上方に延びる本体部２９の上端部２９ａを前記取付壁Ｗｂにビス止め２１して固定される。前記受部２８と床面ＦＬとの間にはライナー材Ｓ１が介装される。
【００２８】
図６は被係止物Ｋとして係止部材１１に略丸電球形をしたフックＫｆを設けた例であり、フックＫｆは係止部材１１の本体部１０の裏面側からねじ止めされる。
【００２９】
前記のような構成により、係止部材１１を図３に示すようにＦ方向に僅かに傾斜させた状態で先端側の係合部１２を導入部９からレール１の係止溝２に挿入し、該係止部材１１を水平方向に戻すと前記支持軸部１４が前記支持凹部４に嵌合すると共に係合部１２の上面の当接係合部１３が係止溝２の上面の係止部３に当接係合する。前記のようにして係止部材１１を水平方向に戻すと係止部材１１の本体部１０の下端部に設けた当接部１５が壁面Ｗａに当接するから、係止部材１１は、当接係合部１３と支持軸部１４と当接部１５との少なくとも３点で支持され、従って、該係止部材１１で係止保持される被係止物Ｋは壁面Ｗａに確実に係止保持されることとなる。
【００３０】
なお、前記レール１、受けレール１Ｇ及び係止部材１１はアルミ合金の押出しにより成形され、表面はアルマイト処理又は合成樹脂粉体塗装等の表面処理が行われる。前記当接部１５には凹部を設けておいて該凹部にクッション材１５ａを取り付けるようにしてもよい。
【００３１】
【発明の効果】
本発明の壁面係止装置によれば、係止部材の係合部をレールの係止溝の導入部に臨ませて係止部材の後部を若干持ち上げた状態で該係合部を前記係止溝に落とし込むと支持軸部が支持凹部に嵌合し、手を離すと係合部材及び被係止物の自重で支持軸部を支点として回転することにより、係合部の当接係合部が係止溝の上面に当接し、これと同時に係止部材の他端部側の当接部が壁面に当接するから、係止部材は、当接係合部、支持軸部及び当接部の少なくとも３点で支持される。
【００３２】
従って、係合部材をレールに係合させるための動作方向は当初だけ係止部材の後部を僅かに持ち上げ、その後はほぼ水平方向に押し込むことによって操作することができる。また、レールに係合保持された係合部材及び被係止物は少なくとも３点で支持されるから確実に係止保持することができ、また、係止部材や被係止物に頭等がぶつかってこれらを持ち上げるような衝撃があっても、支持軸部と支持凹部との嵌合状態が解除されるほどの大きな揺動とはならないから、前記外的衝撃力がなくなると元の状態に復帰し、レールと係止部材の係合がみだりに外れたりするおそれはない。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a wall surface latch for engaging and retaining an object to be locked on a wall surface via the locking member by engaging the locking member with a rail with a locking groove provided laterally on the wall. More particularly, the present invention relates to a wall surface locking device that is extremely useful when applied to a panel wall surface formed by passing a plurality of stages of panel connection rails in the lateral direction and attaching panels between the rails.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, there has been a panel wall surface in which a plurality of panel connecting rails are attached to the wall in the horizontal direction and the panels are attached between the rails, and various joining structures for joining the upper and lower panels and boards have been proposed. (For example, JP-A-6-257237, JP-A-11-71844, etc.).
[0003]
On the other hand, a locking groove having an engagement portion that opens in the indoor direction in the connecting rail and having an engaging portion that engages with the locking groove is used, and various locked objects, for example, There are provided hooks, hangers, accessory storage shelves, and the like that are locked and held.
[0004]
FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of a conventional engagement state of the connecting rail and the locking bracket, W is a wall, 31 is a connecting rail for connecting the upper and lower panels P1, P2, and the wall W It is fixed to. The connecting rail 31 is provided with a locking groove 32 that opens in the indoor direction.
[0005]
Reference numeral 35 denotes an engagement fitting having an engagement portion 37 that engages with the engagement groove 32 on the upper end portion side of the main body portion 36 and an abutment portion 38 that contacts the panel wall surface Wa on the lower end portion side. For example, a locked object K such as a mounting shelf is fixed to the locking metal fitting 35 so that the locked object K is locked and held on the panel wall surface.
[0006]
The locking groove 32 is curved so as to extend obliquely upward, and the engaging portion 37 also curves and protrudes so as to correspond to the shape of the locking groove 32. When the locked object K is locked and held on the panel wall surface Wa, the front side of the locked object K is lifted upward so that the engaging portion 37 faces the locking groove 32, and the locked object K is While rotating in the direction of arrow F1, the entire object to be locked is brought close to the wall surface in the F2 direction, whereby the engaging portion 37 is inserted into the locking groove 32, and the abutting portion 38 is moved to the panel wall surface Wa. Abut.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional wall surface locking device, as is apparent from FIG. 7, when the locked object K is attached to the panel wall surface Wa, the front side of the locked object K is increased (from the panel wall surface Wa). About 45 degrees) After being lifted, it is pushed in the direction of the wall surface while being rotated. Therefore, when the locking bracket 35 is attached to the connecting rail 31 at a relatively high position on the panel wall surface Wa, the spine does not reach. There were inconveniences such as requiring a stepladder each time. In addition, the rail located at the uppermost stage has a drawback in that a large locking object cannot be locked because the ceiling becomes an obstacle if the locked object K is lifted greatly.
[0008]
An object of the present invention is to provide an impact that can securely engage a locking member without significantly increasing the locking member and raise the locking member or the object to be locked when the locking member is engaged with the rail. It is an object of the present invention to provide a wall surface locking device that does not have a risk of sudden disengagement even if there is.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The wall surface locking device according to the present invention is:
According to the first aspect of the present invention, a rail having a locking groove that is provided laterally on the wall and that opens in the indoor direction is inserted into and engaged with the locking groove on one end of the main body. A wall surface having an engaging portion and an engaging member having an abutting portion in contact with the wall surface on the other end side, and the object to be locked is retained on the wall surface via the engaging member. In the locking device, the locking groove of the rail is formed in the horizontal direction, and at least the introduction portion in the direction in which the engaging portion of the locking member is inserted has an inclined portion inclined downward, and the locking member The engaging portion is provided with a contact engaging portion and a support shaft portion that contact the upper surface of the locking groove, and the locking portion with which the contact engaging portion engages with the locking groove of the rail. And a support recess for supporting the support shaft portion, and the locking member includes a contact engagement portion, a support shaft portion, and a contact portion. Characterized in that it is supported at Kutomo three points.
[0010]
With such a configuration, the engaging portion of the locking member faces the introduction portion of the locking groove of the rail and the engaging portion is supported by being dropped into the locking groove with the rear portion of the locking member slightly lifted. When the shaft portion is fitted into the support recess and the hand is released, the engagement member rotates with its own weight with the support shaft portion as a fulcrum, so that the contact engagement portion of the engagement portion contacts the upper surface of the locking groove. At the same time, the contact portion on the other end side of the locking member contacts the wall surface. As a result, the locking member is supported at at least three points of the contact engagement portion, the support shaft portion, and the contact portion.
[0011]
Therefore, the operation direction for engaging the engaging member with the rail can be operated by slightly lifting the rear portion of the locking member only at the beginning and then pushing it in a substantially horizontal direction. Further, since the engaging member and the object to be locked that are engaged and held on the rail are supported at least at three points, they are securely held and held.
[0012]
Even if there is an impact that lifts the head or the like by hitting the locking member or the object to be locked, it does not swing so large that the fitting state between the support shaft and the support recess is released. When the external impact force disappears, the original state is restored.
[0013]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, the rail is a connecting rail that connects the upper and lower panels, and the wall surface is a panel wall surface. In the third aspect, the rail has a main body having a locking groove. consists of at least two members of the attachment portion of the parts and the mounting wall, both members characterized in that it is secured by a mechanical coupling, in which according to claim 4, rails at least one or more hollow portions According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, the abutting engaging portion of the locking member is provided on the top surface of the top surface of the engaging portion, and the support shaft portion is provided on the lower surface side of the engaging portion. The abutting portion is characterized by projecting from the lower end portion of the main body portion extending along the wall surface direction.
[0014]
As a form of the rail, the rail can be embedded in the wall surface so that the locked object can be locked and held on the wall surface, but generally a connecting rail that connects a panel or a board is used. The rail can be composed of a plurality of members. Depending on the thickness of the panel and the like, the depth of the rail becomes wider, so that one or more hollow portions are provided in the rail in order to reduce the weight of the rail, reduce the material, and maintain the strength of the rail itself. Further, a cap or the like provided with a fitting portion that fits into the hollow portion is fitted into the hollow portion. The contact engagement portion is generally formed as a flat portion on the top surface of the front end of the engagement portion, and engages with the contact surface in close contact with the top surface of the locking groove. Further, the support shaft portion protrudes from the lower surface side of the engagement portion, and for example, a reliable support fulcrum can be obtained by forming a substantially “V” cross section consisting of a vertical portion and an inclined portion. .
[0015]
According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, a raised portion is formed on the upper surface of the main body portion of the locking member so as to be in contact with the upper edge of the opening of the locking groove of the rail so that the rotation of the locking member is restricted. The object to be locked is a mounting shelf, and the main body of the locking member is provided with a shelf receiving portion for supporting the mounting shelf in the horizontal direction. According to the eighth aspect of the present invention, the object to be locked is a storage box, and the main body of the locking member is provided with an attachment portion for fixing and holding the storage box. According to the ninth aspect of the present invention, the object to be locked is a hook, and is fixed to the main body of the locking member. A two-member rail is fixed by mechanical coupling.
[0016]
If a raised portion is formed on the upper surface of the main body so as to abut the upper edge of the opening of the locking groove of the rail so that the rotation of the locking member is restricted, the rotation of the engaging member is restricted, and the rail Can be more reliably prevented from falling off the locking groove. The type of the object to be locked is not limited, such as a mounting shelf, a wall-hanging storage box, or a hook for hanging clothes. In the case of a mounting shelf, a shelf receiving portion is provided in the horizontal direction from the main body portion of the engaging member, and in the case of a storage box, an attachment portion is provided in the main body portion.
[0017]
