Is formed. Furthermore, insertion holes 16 and 16 are formed in the left and right wall portions 15 and 15 of the base 3 so as to penetrate the fastening band. The insertion holes 16 and 16 are formed in a vertically long shape having a long side in the axial direction of the support column, and the size thereof is smaller than the size between the inside of the upper and lower wall portions, and is sized so that the fastening band can be inserted. Has been.

Next, at least both ends of the base 3 are located on a line that connects the inner peripheral surfaces 16a and 16a of the left and right long sides located on the side far from the opening 5 of the longitudinal insertion holes 16 and 16. An introduction member 20 is provided in which the portions 20a and 20a (one of which is not shown in the figure) are fixed to the inner surfaces of the left and right wall portions 15 and 15 of the base 3 by a fixing method such as welding or adhesive. . The introduction member 20 in the embodiment of the present invention is formed by forming a thin metal plate into a plate whose width is slightly smaller than the left-right dimension of the inner diameter of the base 3, and the front side of the plate and the vertically long insertion. The inner peripheral surfaces 16a and 16a of the holes 16 and 16 are fixed inside the base body 3 so as to be substantially on the same plane.

FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view showing an embodiment in which two fixtures according to the present invention are used in the vertical direction, and showing a state where the fixture 4 is attached to the support column 4 with the fastening band 2. In this figure, reference numeral 2 denotes a well-known fastening band, which is inserted into the vertically long insertion hole 16 and wound around the support column 4 to fix the base 1. Reference numeral 9 denotes a connecting member for arranging the base bodies 1 and 1 provided on the upper and lower sides in parallel and spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance. In the embodiment of the present invention, the metal member is bent. The fastening band 2 is a free band or a stainless steel band.

Here, an embodiment in which a device is attached using the fixture according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the fixtures 1a and 1b of the present invention are attached to the support column 4 in advance before mounting the device 50 in order to improve the mountability of the electronic device 50. That is, the electronic device 50 is, for example, a device used in a television joint reception system represented by a head end that receives BS digital broadcasts and outputs the received signals as analog television broadcast television broadcast signals. May be installed on a pole provided on the top of a mountain as a receiving point, and it is desirable that the installation work be as simple as possible. For this reason, the fixture is first attached to the pole, and then the electronic device 50 is pulled up. This is because a method of fixing to the fixture is taken.

Therefore, an upper mounting bracket 51 and a lower mounting bracket 52 for mounting on the mounting bracket are provided on the upper back and lower back of the electronic device 50, and the mounting bracket 1a is provided on the upper end of the upper mounting bracket 51. Folded pieces 51a and 51a (one is not shown) are formed to be inserted into the long holes 31 and 31 formed in the upper wall portion 10 of the base 3a. First, the folded pieces are formed into the long holes 31 and 31. The electronic device 50 is hooked and locked on the fixture 1a and temporarily placed, and in this state, the screw rods 32a and 32a are formed on the upper fixture 51 from above the upper fixture 51. The electronic device 50 and the fixture 1a are fixed by screwing into the screw holes 32 and 32 through insertion holes not shown in the drawing.
Next, the lower mounting bracket 52 of the electronic device 50 is in a state in which the protruding piece 52a protruding downward from the device is in contact with the bottom surface of the base 3b of the mounting device 1b. The screw rods 34a and 34a are screwed into the screw holes 34 and 34 formed in the base 3b of the fixture 1b through the insertion holes not shown in the figure formed in the protruding piece 52a. Thus, the electronic device can be firmly attached to the fixture 1.
At this time, the fixture 1a and the fixture 1b are arranged in parallel by the connecting member 9 and spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance (that is, at a position facing the mounting bracket of the electronic device). The holes and screw holes 32 and 32, the insertion holes formed in the lower mounting bracket 52, and the centers of the screw holes 34 and 34 are aligned with each other, so that the screws can be fixed without aligning the respective holes. It is.

Here, the detail of the attachment method of the fixture 1 concerning this invention is demonstrated using FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line B-B shown in FIG. First, as shown in FIG. 4C, considering the case where there is no introduction member, when the leading end of the fastening band is inserted from one insertion hole 16 and reaches the other insertion hole 16, the fastening band 2 Depending on the shape, the front end portion comes into contact with the inner surface of the side wall portion 15, and it is necessary to search for the insertion hole 16 in order to insert the other insertion hole 16, thereby reducing the efficiency of the mounting operation. In particular, if the electronic device 50 is a head end in a television joint reception system as in the embodiment of the present invention, the installation location is a place where a person such as a mountainous area cannot easily enter and a height of a column. Therefore, it is desirable to make the installation work as easy as possible.

Therefore, in the present invention, as shown well in FIGS. 4A and 4B, by providing the introduction member 20, the distal end portion of the fastening band 2 penetrates into the inner part of the base body 3 by the introduction member 20. There is nothing to do. Further, since the installation position of the introduction member 20 is arranged on a plane formed by the inner peripheral surfaces of the left and right long sides 16a of the vertically long insertion hole 16, the distal end portion of the introduction member 20 is introduced even if the fastening band 2 is deformed. If inserted so as to be guided to the member 20, the tip can be easily inserted without searching for the other insertion hole 16.

Furthermore, the provision of the introduction member 20 creates a space 8 between the introduction member 20 and the bottom surface of the base 3. This space 8 becomes a storage space for the folded pieces 51a formed on the upper mounting portion 51 and the tip portions of the screw rods 32a and 34a when the electronic device 50 is attached to the fixture 1. That is, when the fastening band 2 is fastened and fixed, the fastening band 2 is attached by sandwiching the support column 4 and the base 3. At this time, the tightening band 2 is attached to the outer periphery of the support column 2 at the portion in contact with the support column 4. In some cases, the base 3 is bent inward along the outer edge portions of the long sides 16a and 16a of the insertion holes and tightened with force applied to the edge portions. Conceivable. When considering the state of the tightening band 2 inside the base 3 when tightening is completed in this state, if the introduction member 20 is not present, the tightening band 2 may depend on the deformation state of the tightening band 2 due to tightening. It is conceivable that swells in the direction of the bottom surface of the substrate 3. If tightening is completed in such a state, in the subsequent mounting of the electronic device 50, the folded pieces 51a housed in the space 8 inside the base body 3 and the screw rods 32a and 34a are attached. It is necessary to lengthen the dimension of the space 8 in the depth direction so that the front end portion is not obstructed by the fastening band 2, and as a result, it is necessary to increase the dimension of the base 3. It happens.

However, the fixture 1 of the present invention separates the insertion space of the fastening band 2 from the space 8 in which the folded pieces 51a and the tip portions of the screw rods 32a and 34a are accommodated by the introduction member 20. No. 2 is penetrated through the base body substantially linearly by the insertion holes 16 and 16 and the introduction member 20, and the tightening band 2 is tightened to apply a force that causes the tightening band 2 to expand toward the bottom surface of the base body 3. However, the introduction member 20 blocks the force. This is because the fastening band 2 does not enter the space 8 even if the folded pieces 51a and the screw rods 32a and 34a are the same size as when the introduction member 20 is not provided. The space 8 can be set to the minimum dimension in which the folded piece 51a and the screw rods 32a and 34a are accommodated, and as a result, the dimension of the base 3 can be reduced.

As described above, according to the fixture 1 of the present invention, by providing the introduction member 20 inside the base body 3, the distal end portion of the fastening band 2 is guided to the introduction member 20 even if the fastening band 2 is deformed. Can be inserted through the insertion holes 16 and 16 easily and reliably, and the fixture 1 is excellent in mountability.
In addition, the introduction member 20 separates the insertion space of the fastening band 2 from the space 8 in which the folded pieces 51a and the tip ends of the screw rods 32a and 34a are accommodated, so that the fastening band 2 is inserted into the insertion hole. 16 and 16 and the introduction member 20 penetrate the base body in a substantially straight line, and the fastening band 2 does not enter the space. Therefore, the space 8 is the smallest enough to accommodate the folded piece 51a and the screw rods 32a and 34a. As a result, the size of the substrate 3 can be reduced.

In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, It is also possible to change and implement the structure of this invention suitably.
