Description

  The present invention relates to a rack for laundry equipment, a method for installing the rack, and a method for installing laundry equipment on the rack.

  Some laundry machines, such as washing machines and dryers, have laundry outlets on their sides. In the case of this configuration, it is assumed that the user has a lower outlet, and the user has to bend down in order to load and unload laundry at the outlet. Therefore, in order to enhance the convenience for the user, the height of the outlet may be increased by setting a pedestal on the floor and placing laundry equipment on the pedestal.

  In FIG. 1, a conventional gantry 1 is illustrated. The gantry 1 is formed, for example, in a frame shape that is rectangular in plan view, and has a predetermined thickness in the vertical direction. The upper surface of the gantry 1 is a placement surface 2 on which the legs of the laundry machine are placed.

  Each of the four corners of the mounting surface 2 is provided with a pair of ribs 3 protruding upward from the mounting surface 2 so as to form an L shape in plan view. The pair of ribs 3 are opposed to each other so as to form a substantially rectangular shape as a whole in plan view, and an accommodation space 4 is defined between the pair of ribs 3 at each of the four corners of the placement surface 2. The accommodation space 4 is formed in a concave shape that is recessed downward, and is opened upward.

  One adjustment leg 6 is provided at each of the four corners of the bottom surface 5 of the gantry 1. Each adjustment leg 6 projects downward from the bottom surface 5 and abuts against the floor surface from above. By adjusting the amount of protrusion of each adjustment leg 6 to the floor, the level of the mounting surface 2 can be adjusted.

  After adjusting the level of the mounting surface 2 after setting the gantry 1 on the floor surface, the legs of the laundry machine are inserted into the accommodation spaces 4 at the four corners of the mounting surface 2 one by one from above. Laundry equipment is installed on the gantry 1.

  When installing the laundry machine on the conventional gantry 1, the operator pinpoints the laundry machine so that each leg of the laundry machine coincides with each storage space 4 in a plan view with the laundry machine lifted up. After positioning in the horizontal direction, the laundry machine must be lowered and each leg inserted into each receiving space 4 from above. This work imposes a heavy burden on the operator in the case of a large and heavy laundry machine, for example, for business use.

  Further, when the laundry device is installed on the gantry 1, the position of the center of gravity of the laundry device is increased. Thereby, there is a possibility that vibration during operation of the laundry machine may increase. Since the gantry 1 only touches the floor surface at the adjusting leg 6 and is not fixed to the floor surface, the gantry 1 itself moves or rattles during the operation of the laundry machine. Thus, there is a risk that vibration will further increase.

  If such vibrations occur excessively or if a person leans on the laundry device, the laundry device falls from the storage space 4 of the gantry 1 so that the laundry device falls from the gantry 1 or the gantry 1. There is also a risk of falling over.

  The present invention has been made under such background, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a rack for a laundry machine, a method for installing the rack, and a method for installing the laundry machine on the rack, which can improve the installation of the laundry machine. And

  The present invention also provides a rack for a laundry machine that can reduce vibration during operation of the laundry machine and prevent the laundry machine from falling or falling, a method for installing the rack, and a method for installing the laundry machine on the rack. Objective.

  Further, the present invention provides a fall prevention member that protrudes upward from the placement surface and extends in the predetermined direction, and prevents a leg of a laundry machine that is slid on the placement surface from falling from the placement surface. It is characterized by including.

  In addition, the present invention includes a cover portion that covers the housing space from above as a part of the first positioning portion in a non-contact state with a leg of the laundry device positioned by the first positioning portion. To do.

  In the present invention, the main body is a hollow body having an internal space penetrating the main body up and down, and the anchor member is arranged in the internal space.

  Further, the present invention is the above-described method for installing a rack for laundry equipment, the step of setting the rack on the floor surface, and adjusting the amount of protrusion of the adjustment leg to the floor surface as described above Adjusting the level of the floor, adjusting the height of the anchor member and fixing the anchor member to the floor surface, and stretching the adjustment leg against the floor surface. This is the installation method of the base.

  Further, the present invention is a method for installing a laundry device on a rack for the laundry device described above, the step of placing the legs of the laundry device on the mounting surface from above, and the legs of the laundry device, The step of positioning by the first positioning part by sliding the top and inserting into the accommodation space from the entrance, and attaching the second positioning part to the mounting surface, the first positioning in the laundry machine And positioning a leg other than the leg positioned by the section by the second positioning section. The method for installing the laundry apparatus on the rack for the laundry apparatus is characterized in that:

According to the present invention, in the rack for laundry equipment, the first positioning portion provided on the flat placement surface in the main body set on the floor has the accommodation space for receiving the legs of the laundry equipment. In the accommodation space, the entrance faces one side in a predetermined direction along the placement surface. Further, on the placement surface, the second positioning portion is attached at a position away from the first positioning portion to one side.
When installing the laundry device on this gantry, first, the leg of the laundry device is placed on the mounting surface at an appropriate position from above. And a leg is slid toward the other side opposite to one side on a mounting surface, and is inserted into accommodation space from an entrance. Since the accommodation space has a shape that is recessed from the entrance toward the other side, the leg received in the accommodation space cannot be moved any further to the other side, and is thus positioned by the first positioning portion.
Next, the second positioning part is attached. Then, legs other than the leg positioned by the first positioning unit in the laundry machine are positioned by the second positioning unit. As a result, the entire laundry machine is installed so as not to move relative to the gantry.
In other words, the worker who performs the installation first puts the leg of the laundry machine once at an appropriate position on the placement surface and maintains the first position by not sliding the laundry equipment. By positioning by the unit and then attaching the second positioning unit to the mounting surface and positioning the other legs, the laundry device can be installed on the gantry with a small burden.
As a result, it is possible to improve the installability of laundry equipment.

  Further, according to the present invention, the fall prevention member that protrudes upward from the placement surface and extends in a predetermined direction prevents the legs of the laundry machine that is slid on the placement surface from falling from the placement surface. It is possible to prevent the laundry machine from falling during installation on the gantry.

  Further, according to the present invention, since the cover part which is a part of the first positioning part covers the accommodation space from the upper side, it is possible to prevent the legs of the laundry equipment in the accommodation space from coming off from the accommodation space. The laundry device can be prevented from falling or falling due to the legs coming off the storage space. Moreover, since the cover part is in a non-contact state with the leg of the laundry machine positioned by the first positioning part, the leg may be fatigued and damaged by contacting the cover part while vibrating the laundry machine during operation. It is possible to prevent the vibration of the legs from being transmitted to the gantry via the cover.

Further, according to the present invention, when the floor surface is not horizontal, the leveling degree of the mounting surface is adjusted by adjusting the protruding amount of the adjustment leg provided on the bottom surface of the main body of the gantry to the floor surface. As a result, it is possible to prevent the laundry machine from being inclined on the placement surface. And since the anchor member provided in the main-body part is fixed to a floor surface after adjusting height so that it may approach a floor surface, the whole mount frame is fixed so that relative movement with respect to a floor surface is impossible. As a result, the vibration of the laundry machine is hardly transmitted to the fixed frame, and the fixed frame can attenuate the vibration of the laundry machine itself.
Here, since the anchor member fixed to the floor surface is in a state of being drawn downward, downward tension acts on the gantry. On the other hand, in a state where the anchor member is fixed to the floor surface, the adjustment leg is stretched against the floor surface, so that upward tension corresponding to the reaction force from the floor surface also acts on the gantry. These downward tension and upward tension attenuate the vibration transmitted from the gantry to the laundry machine.
As described above, it is possible to reduce vibrations in the entire laundry machine and the gantry during operation of the laundry machine.

  Further, according to the present invention, since the anchor member is arranged in the internal space of the main body, it does not protrude outside the main body, so that the outer shape of the gantry can be made compact and the appearance can be given freedom. You can also.

Further, according to the present invention, as a method for installing the gantry, first, the gantry is set on the floor surface, and then the level of the mounting surface is adjusted by adjusting the amount of protrusion of the adjusting leg to the floor surface. Thereby, the inclination of the laundry apparatus mounted on a mounting surface after that can be prevented.
Next, by adjusting the height of the anchor member and fixing it to the floor surface, the entire gantry is fixed so as not to move relative to the floor surface. Thereby, the vibration of the laundry machine installed on the frame is not easily transmitted to the fixed frame, and the fixed frame can attenuate the vibration of the laundry machine itself.
Finally, when the adjustment leg is stretched against the floor surface, the installation of the gantry is completed.
In the gantry after installation, the anchor member fixed to the floor surface is in a state of being drawn downward, so that downward tension acts on the gantry. On the other hand, in a state where the anchor member is fixed to the floor surface, the adjustment leg is stretched against the floor surface, so that upward tension corresponding to the reaction force from the floor surface also acts on the gantry. These downward tension and upward tension attenuate the vibration transmitted from the gantry to the laundry machine.
As described above, it is possible to reduce vibrations in the entire laundry machine and the gantry during operation of the laundry machine.

Further, according to the present invention, as a method for installing the laundry device on the gantry, first, the leg of the laundry device is placed on an appropriate position on the mounting surface of the gantry from above. And a leg is slid on a mounting surface and is positioned by a 1st positioning part by inserting in an accommodation space from an entrance. Finally, when the second positioning part is attached to the placement surface and the legs other than the legs positioned by the first positioning part in the laundry machine are positioned by the second positioning part, the installation of the laundry machine is completed.
In other words, the worker who performs the installation first puts the leg of the laundry machine once at an appropriate position on the placement surface and maintains the first position by not sliding the laundry equipment. By positioning by the unit and then attaching the second positioning unit to the mounting surface and positioning the other legs, the laundry device can be installed on the gantry with a small burden.
As a result, it is possible to improve the installability of laundry equipment.

At both ends in the front-rear direction X of the portion sandwiched between the front vertical wall 40 and the rear vertical wall 42 on the right surface of the right vertical wall 49, nuts 50 have their screw holes (not shown) directed in the left-right direction Y. And fixed one by one by welding or the like. At both ends, a circular through hole (not shown) is formed one by one through the right vertical wall 49 in the left-right direction Y and communicating with the screw hole of the nut 50 from the left Y1.

  The lower surfaces of the left lower wall 38 and the right lower wall 39 are continuous with the lower surfaces of the front lower wall 36 and the rear lower wall 37 in a flush state. The lower surfaces of the front lower wall 36, the rear lower wall 37, the left lower wall 38, and the right lower wall 39 integrally form a frame-shaped bottom surface 51 in the main body 12. The bottom surface 51 is opposed to the floor surface S on which the main body 12 is set from the upper side Z1.

  There are four anchor members 13. The anchor member 13 includes a connection portion between the front vertical wall 40 and the left vertical wall 46, a connection portion between the front vertical wall 40 and the right vertical wall 49, a connection portion between the rear vertical wall 42 and the left vertical wall 46, and the rear side. One is arranged in each of the four connection portions, that is, the connection portion between the vertical wall 42 and the right vertical wall 49. These four connection portions are four corners on the inner side of the frame-shaped bottom surface 51 in the main body portion 12. A region surrounded by the frame-shaped bottom surface 51 is a lower end region in the internal space 12 </ b> A of the main body 12.

  Therefore, the anchor members 13 arranged at these four connection portions are arranged in the internal space 12 </ b> A of the main body 12. Therefore, since the anchor member 13 does not protrude from the main body 12 in a plan view, the outer shape of the gantry 10 can be made compact and the appearance can be given a degree of freedom.

  In FIG. 3, the anchor members 13 arranged at the connecting portion between the rear vertical wall 42 and the right vertical wall 49 and indicated by solid lines are referred to, and the individual anchor members 13 are substantially rectangular when viewed from the upper side Z1. A bottom plate 61 that is formed and is thin in the vertical direction Z and two vertical plates 62 that rise from two adjacent sides of the four sides of the bottom plate 61 to the upper side Z1 are integrally included. Corner portions of the bottom plate 61 and the vertical plate 62 may be rounded as necessary.

  The bottom plate 61 is disposed so as to protrude from the bottom Z2 of the bottom surface 51 of the main body portion 12. The bottom surface and the top surface of the bottom plate 61 are flat surfaces along the front-rear direction X and the left-right direction Y. A rectangular small plate 63 that is parallel to the bottom plate 61 and slightly smaller than the bottom plate 61 in plan view is integrally provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate 61. One circular insertion hole 64 penetrating both the small plate 63 and the bottom plate 61 in the vertical direction Z is formed at the center position of the small plate 63 in plan view.

  The two vertical plates 62 in each anchor member 13 are orthogonal to the bottom plate 61 and are orthogonal to each other in a non-contact manner in plan view. Each of the vertical plates 62 is formed with one long hole 65 extending in the vertical direction Z passing through the vertical plate 62 in the thickness direction of the vertical plate 62.

  Each anchor member 13 is attached to the main body 12 by two bolts 66 that are components of the gantry 10.

  Specifically, in the anchor member 13 disposed at the connection portion between the rear vertical wall 42 and the right vertical wall 49, one vertical plate 62 extends along the rear vertical wall 42 from the front side X1, and the other vertical plate 62 The right vertical wall 49 is in a state along the left side Y1. The shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the one vertical plate 62 from the front side X1 with respect to the long hole 65, and passes through the above-described through hole (not shown) on the right side Y2 of the rear vertical wall 42. The screw hole of the nut 43 on the rear side X2 of the through hole is screwed. Then, the shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the other vertical plate 62 from the left side Y1 with respect to the elongated hole 65, and the through hole (not shown) on the rear side X2 of the right vertical wall 49 is provided. Then, it is screwed into the screw hole of the nut 50 on the right side Y2 of the through hole.

  Each bolt 66 is screwed to the nuts 43 and 50 so as to be positioned in the vertical direction Z, and is inserted with play in the vertical direction Z with respect to the long hole 65 of the vertical plate 62. Is in a state. Therefore, in the state where each bolt 66 is loosened, the anchor plate 13 approaches or separates the bottom plate 61 from the floor surface S by moving each vertical plate 62 relative to the bolt 66 in the vertical direction Z. The height can be adjusted.

  When the bolts 66 are tightened after the height adjustment of the anchor member 13 is completed, the rear vertical wall 42 and the bolts 66 between the heads of the bolts 66 and the nuts 43 and 50 to which the bolts 66 are screwed. Since each of the right vertical walls 49 and the corresponding vertical plate 62 are firmly sandwiched, the anchor member 13 is fixed so as not to move relative to the main body portion 12. In this state, the anchor member 13 cannot move relative to the main body 12 in any direction including the vertical direction Z.

  In the anchor member 13 arranged at the connection portion between the rear vertical wall 42 and the left vertical wall 46, one vertical plate 62 extends along the rear vertical wall 42 from the rear side X2, and the other vertical plate 62 is the left vertical wall. 46 is in a state along the right side Y2.

Then, the shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the other vertical plate 62 from the right side Y2 with respect to the elongated hole 65, and is screwed into the screw hole of the nut 47 on the rear side X2 in the left vertical wall 46. Similarly to the anchor member 13 disposed at the connecting portion between the rear vertical wall 42 and the right vertical wall 49, the height of the anchor member 13 can be adjusted while the bolts 66 are loosened. Is fixed so that it cannot move relative to the main body 12.

  In the anchor member 13 disposed at the connecting portion between the front vertical wall 40 and the left vertical wall 46, one vertical plate 62 extends along the front vertical wall 40 from the rear side X2, and the other vertical plate 62 extends to the left vertical wall 46. It is in a state along the right side Y2. The shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the one vertical plate 62 from the rear side X2 with respect to the elongated hole 65, and is screwed into the screw hole of the nut 41 on the left side Y1 in the front vertical wall 40. Then, the shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the other vertical plate 62 from the right side Y2 with respect to the long hole 65, and is screwed into the screw hole of the nut 47 on the front side X1 in the left vertical wall 46. Similarly to the anchor member 13 disposed at the connecting portion between the rear vertical wall 42 and the right vertical wall 49, the height of the anchor member 13 can be adjusted while the bolts 66 are loosened. Is fixed so that it cannot move relative to the main body 12.

  In the anchor member 13 disposed at the connection portion between the front vertical wall 40 and the right vertical wall 49, one vertical plate 62 extends along the front vertical wall 40 from the rear side X2, and the other vertical plate 62 extends to the right vertical wall 49. It is in a state along the left side Y1. The shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the one vertical plate 62 from the rear side X2 with respect to the long hole 65, and is screwed into the screw hole of the nut 41 on the right side Y2 in the front vertical wall 40. Then, the shaft portion of one bolt 66 is inserted into the other vertical plate 62 from the left side Y1 with respect to the long hole 65 and is screwed into the screw hole of the nut 50 on the front side X1 in the right vertical wall 49. As with all other anchor members 13, the height of the anchor member 13 can be adjusted with the bolts 66 loosened, and the anchor members 13 can be moved relative to the main body 12 by tightening the bolts 66. Fixed.

  As described above, in the four anchor members 13 arranged one by one at the four connecting portions described above, the height of each anchor member 13 can be adjusted independently, and the relative height with respect to the main body 12 independently. Fixed immovable.

  There are four adjustment legs 14, and one adjustment leg 14 is provided at each of the four corners of the frame-shaped bottom surface 51 in the main body 12. Each adjustment leg 14 has a substantially conical base portion 70 that narrows toward the upper side Z1 as a lower end portion thereof, and extends from the upper end of the base portion 70 to the upper side Z1, and has a helical screw portion formed on the outer peripheral surface. It includes a shaft portion 71, a fixed nut 72 fixed to the lower end of the shaft portion 71, and a movable nut 73 screwed to the shaft portion 71 on the upper side Z1 from the fixed nut 72 (FIG. 4C described later). reference). In the adjusting leg 14, the base portion 70, the shaft portion 71, and the fixed nut 72 are in an integrated state, while the movable nut 73 is tightened or loosened with a tool such as a wrench to The position in the vertical direction Z on 71 can be shifted.

  The two adjustment legs 14 in the four adjustment legs 14 are assembled one by one with respect to both ends of the left lower wall 38 in the front-rear direction X. Specifically, the shaft portion 71 of the adjusting leg 14 is inserted from the lower side Z2 into the above-described through holes (not shown) at both ends, and the screw hole of the nut 45 on the upper side Z1 of the through holes. Screwed onto.

  The remaining two adjustment legs 14 of the four adjustment legs 14 are assembled one by one with respect to both ends of the right lower wall 39 in the front-rear direction X. Specifically, the shaft portion 71 of the adjusting leg 14 is inserted from the lower side Z2 into the above-described through holes (not shown) at both ends, and the screw hole of the nut 48 located on the upper side Z1 of the through holes. Screwed onto.

  In the four adjustment legs 14 thus attached to the bottom surface 51 of the main body portion 12, the base portion 70, the lower portion of the shaft portion 71, the fixed nut 72, and the movable nut 73 are below the bottom surface 51. Located on the side Z2, the base portion 70 comes into contact with the floor surface S from the upper side Z1. That is, each adjustment leg 14 is provided so as to protrude from the bottom surface 51 to the lower side Z2 and to contact the floor surface S from the upper side Z1. When the entire adjusting leg 14 is twisted by tightening or loosening the fixing nut 72 with a tool such as a wrench, the connecting position of the shaft portion 71 and the nuts 45 and 48 on the main body portion 12 side changes. Thereby, the protrusion amount of each adjustment leg 14 from the bottom surface 51 to the floor surface S can be adjusted individually.

4 (a) is a plan view of the gantry 10, FIG. 4 (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB in FIG. 4 (a), and FIG. 4 (c) is FIG. 4 (b). FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion surrounded by a broken-line circle in FIG. In FIG. 4C, for convenience of explanation, the nut 48 of the main body 12 and the shaft 71 of the adjustment leg 14 are illustrated by broken lines.

  In FIG. 4, a base D having the floor surface S on which the gantry 10 is installed as an upper surface is illustrated. The base D is made of concrete, for example. The following description will be made on the assumption that the floor surface S is slightly inclined with respect to the horizontal direction H and is not horizontal. In addition, four anchor bolts 75 of the same number as the anchor members 13 of the gantry 10 are embedded in the base D, and the upper end portions of the anchor bolts 75 are located above the floor surface S from the upper side Z1 as shown in FIG. It is in a state of protruding. The upper ends of the four anchor bolts 75 are arranged so as to form the vertices of a virtual square in plan view. Therefore, in the plan view, the layout of the four anchor bolts matches the layout of the four anchor members 13.

Below, the installation method of the mount frame 10 is demonstrated.
First, the gantry 10 is set on the floor surface S so that the base portions 70 of all the adjusting legs 14 come into contact with the floor surface S from the upper side Z1. At this time, the upper ends of the four anchor bolts 75 protruding from the floor surface S are inserted into the bottom plate 61 and the insertion holes 64 of the small plate 63 in the four anchor members 13 of the gantry 10 as shown in FIG. On the other hand, it is inserted one by one from the lower side Z2 and protrudes to the upper side Z1 from the insertion hole 64.

  Next, the level of the placement surface 25 of the main body 12 is adjusted by adjusting the amount of protrusion of each adjustment leg 14 to the floor surface S. Thereby, the mounting surface 25 becomes a flat surface along the horizontal direction H (see FIG. 4B). Therefore, as will be described later, it is possible to prevent the laundry apparatus 11 placed on the placement surface 25 from being inclined.

  Then, the height of each anchor member 13 is adjusted so as to approach the floor surface S. Specifically, the two bolts 66 in each anchor member 13 are loosened, each anchor member 13 is individually moved up and down, and the lower surface of the bottom plate 61 of the anchor member 13 is brought into surface contact with the floor surface S from the upper side Z1. When the bottom surface of the bottom plate 61 is in surface contact with the floor surface S and the bolt 66 is tightened to fix the anchor member 13 to the main body 12, the height adjustment of the anchor member 13 is completed.

  After the height adjustment in all the anchor members 13, the nuts 76 from the upper side Z 1 to the upper end portions of the anchor bolts 75 that protrude from the insertion holes 64 of the bottom plate 61 and the small plate 63 to the upper side Z 1 in each anchor member 13. Screw on. When the nut 76 is fully screwed, the bottom plate 61 and the small plate 63 are pressed toward the floor surface S in each anchor member 13. Accordingly, the anchor member 13 is fixed so as to be drawn toward the lower side Z2 with respect to the floor surface S.

  As a result, the entire gantry 10 is fixed to the floor surface S so as not to be relatively movable. As a result, the gantry 10 does not rattle, and the position of the gantry 10 does not shift up and down, front, back, left and right. Further, the vibration of the laundry machine 11 is not easily transmitted to the fixed base 10 that is in a rigid state, and the fixed base 10 can attenuate the vibration of the laundry machine 11 itself.

  In the state where the anchor member 13 is fixed to the floor surface S, finally, in each of the adjustment legs 14, only the movable nut 73 is moved to the upper side Z1 by tightening the movable nut 73 with a tool such as a wrench. Then, after the movable nut 73 comes into contact with the bottom surface 51 of the main body portion 12 from the lower side Z2, when the movable nut 73 is further twisted and tightened, the base portion 70 of the adjustment leg 14 is pressed against the lower side Z2, Each adjusting leg 14 is stretched against the floor surface S. Thus, the installation of the gantry 10 is completed.

  In addition, by tightening the movable nut 73 and causing the adjustment leg 14 to be stretched against the floor surface S, between the shaft portion 71 of the adjustment leg 14 and the nuts 45 and 48 of the main body portion 12 (see FIG. 3). Looseness can be prevented.

  Here, since the anchor member 13 fixed to the floor surface S is in a state of being drawn toward the lower side Z2, the downward tension T1 acts on the gantry 10. On the other hand, in the state where the anchor member 13 is fixed to the floor surface S, the adjustment leg 14 is stretched against the floor surface S. Therefore, upward tension T2 corresponding to the reaction force from the floor surface S also acts on the gantry 10. To do. These downward tension T1 and upward tension T2 attenuate the vibration transmitted from the laundry machine 11 to the gantry 10. Specifically, even if vibration is transmitted from the laundry machine 11 to the gantry 10, the input vibrations are quickly damped in order to maintain the two tensions T1 and T2 in opposite directions in balance with each other. It seems to be.

  As described above, the vibration of the entire laundry device 11 and the gantry 10 during the operation of the laundry device 11 is reduced, and the state of the gantry 10 during the operation of the laundry device 11 is brought close to the state when the laundry device 11 is not mounted. be able to.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the gantry 10 for explaining the installation of the laundry machine 11.
Referring to FIG. 5, the gantry 10 further includes a second positioning portion 80 attached to the placement surface 25 of the main body portion 12. The 2nd positioning part 80 is a part for positioning the laundry apparatus 11, and there exist two so that a left-right pair may be made.

The front rib 83 is thin in the front-rear direction X and is in the shape of a rectangular piece that is long in the left-right direction Y when viewed from the front-rear direction X, and is spanned between the front end edges of the left rib 81 and the right rib 82.

  Each of the second positioning portions 80 includes an inlet 87 defined by the rear end edges of the left rib 81 and the right rib 82, and an accommodation space 88 defined by the integrated left rib 81, right rib 82, and front rib 83. Have The inlet 87 is a rectangular opening that is long in the left-right direction Y and faces the rear side X2. The accommodation space 88 is a rectangular parallelepiped space that is flat in the vertical direction Z, and is recessed from the inlet 87 toward the front side X1.

  The cover portion 84 has a thin plate shape in the vertical direction Z, and is formed in a substantially U shape when viewed from the upper side Z1 by forming a substantially U-shaped recess 89 with a rear end notched in the front side X1. Is done. The cover portion 84 is connected to the respective upper end edges of the left rib 81, the right rib 82, and the front rib 83, and covers the accommodation space 88 from the upper side Z1. On the other hand, in the state where the second positioning portion 80 exists alone, the accommodation space 88 is not blocked from the lower side Z2, so that the entire accommodation space 88 is opened from the inlet 87 to the rear side X2, and the lower side Also open to the side Z2.

  The left flange 85 and the right flange 86 have a plate shape that is thin in the vertical direction Z and has a rectangular shape that is long in the front-rear direction X when viewed from the vertical direction Z. The left flange 85 extends from the lower end edge of the left rib 81 to the left side Y 1, and the front end portion of the left flange 85 is disposed so as to protrude from the front side X 1 with respect to the left rib 81. The right flange 86 extends from the lower end edge of the right rib 82 to the right side Y <b> 2, and the front end portion of the right flange 86 is disposed so as to protrude to the front side X <b> 1 from the right rib 82.

  At the front end portions of the left flange 85 and the right flange 86, one circular insertion hole 90 penetrating each flange in the vertical direction Z is formed. Each of the rear end edges of the left flange 85 and the right flange 86 is provided with one claw 91 that extends from the rear end edge to the lower side Z2 and then bends substantially at a right angle and protrudes to the rear side X2. In plan view, each claw 91 is smaller than each through hole 55 in the front end portion of the mounting surface 25 of the main body portion 12.

  Below, with reference to FIG. 5, the installation method of the laundry apparatus 11 to the mount frame 10 after the installation to the floor surface S is demonstrated. In FIG. 5, the four legs 95 projecting from the four corners of the substantially rectangular bottom surface of the laundry machine 11 to the lower side Z <b> 2 are illustrated by solid lines in the state after the installation is completed, and are illustrated by broken lines in the state in the middle of the installation. Since the four legs 95 are fixed to the bottom surface of the laundry machine 11, the relative positions of the four legs 95 are constant.

  Each leg 95 integrally includes a substantially disk-shaped base portion 96 that is flat in the up-down direction Z that forms the lower end thereof, and a shaft portion 97 that protrudes upward from the center of the base portion 96 in plan view. Base portion 96 is made of, for example, resin, and shaft portion 97 is made of, for example, metal.

  When installing the laundry machine 11 on the gantry 10, first, the leg 95 of the laundry machine 11 is placed from the upper side Z1 at an appropriate position on the placement surface 25 of the main body 12 of the gantry 10 as indicated by a broken line in FIG. . At this time, in the four legs 95, at least the base portions 96 of the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 may be placed so as not to protrude from the placement surface 25, and the remaining two legs 95 on the front side X1 are placed. The base portion 96 may protrude from the placement surface 25.

  If all of the four legs 95 are placed on the placement surface 25, the worker can release his / her hands from the laundry machine 11 once. However, if at least the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 are placed on the placement surface 25, even if the two legs 95 on the front side X1 are disengaged from the placement surface 25, the operator can use a light force. The laundry machine 11 can be supported.

  Of the two legs 95 on the rear side X2, the leg Y1 on the left side Y1 rests on the placement surface 25 at the rear end portion of the left upper wall 21 of the main body part 12, and the entrance of the first positioning part 27 on the left side Y1. It is in the state located in 32 front side X1. Of the two legs 95 on the rear side X2, the leg 95 on the right side Y2 rests on the placement surface 25 at the rear end of the right upper wall 22 of the main body 12 and enters the entrance of the first positioning part 27 on the right side Y2. It is in the state located in 32 front side X1.

  Next, each leg 95 is slid to the rear side X2 on the placement surface 25 for installing the laundry device 11 by pushing the portion of the front side X1 in the laundry device 11 to the rear side X2 while lifting. When the leg 95 slides, even if the left Y1 leg 95 is displaced to the right Y2, the left Y1 fall prevention member 26 is ahead, so that the left and right legs 95 slid on the placement surface 25 are placed. The fall prevention member 26 prevents the fall from the surface 25 to the right side Y2. On the other hand, when the leg 95 slides, even if the right Y2 leg 95 is displaced to the left Y1, the right Y2 fall prevention member 26 is ahead, so that the left and right legs 95 slid on the mounting surface 25 are The fall prevention member 26 prevents the fall from the placement surface 25 to the left side Y1. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the laundry device 11 from falling during installation on the gantry 10. The fall prevention member 26 also functions as a guide for the laundry machine 11 that moves to the rear side X <b> 2 for installation on the gantry 10.

  Then, by continuously sliding each leg 95, the base portion 96 of the two legs 95 on the rear side X <b> 2, as indicated by a solid line, the entrance 32 of the first positioning portion 27 on the same side in the left-right direction Y. The shaft portion 97 is inserted into the concave portion 34 of the cover portion 31 of the first positioning portion 27. When the position of the shaft portion 97 is shifted in the left-right direction Y, the shaft portion 97 is inserted into the recessed portion 34 by being guided to the inclined portions 35 on the left and right sides of the recessed portion 34 in the cover portion 31.

  The accommodation space 33 is recessed from the inlet 32 toward the rear side X2, and is closed from the rear side X2 by the rear rib 30, so that the base portion 96 enters the accommodation space 33 from the inlet 32. When accepted, the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 cannot move any further to the rear side X2, nor can they move in the left-right direction Y. Accordingly, the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 are positioned in the front-rear direction X and the left-right direction Y by the corresponding first positioning portion 27.

  Further, when the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 are positioned by the first positioning part 27, the base part 96 of the left leg 95 of the two legs 95 on the front side X1, as shown by a solid line, The mounting surface 25 at the left end of the front upper wall 19 is positioned between the pair of left and right through holes 55. Further, the base portion 96 of the right leg 95 of the two legs 95 on the front side X1 is located between the pair of left and right through holes 55 on the mounting surface 25 at the right end of the front upper wall 19 as shown by a solid line. It is in a position.

  Finally, the pair of left and right second positioning portions 80 are attached to positions on the placement surface 25 away from the first positioning portions 27 toward the front side X1. Specifically, the second positioning portions 80 are placed one by one from the upper side Z1 on the placement surfaces 25 at the left and right ends of the front upper wall 19. At this time, each 2nd positioning part 80 is arrange | positioned so that the base part 96 of the two legs 95 of the front side X1 located in the said both ends may be covered from upper side Z1. As a result, in each of the two legs 95 on the front side X1, the base portion 96 is partially accommodated in the accommodation space 88 of the second positioning portion 80, and the shaft portion 97 is located on the rear side in the recess 89 of the cover portion 84. It will be in the state inserted from X2.

  Further, in a state where the second positioning portion 80 is merely placed on the placement surface 25, the pair of left and right claws 91 are placed on the placement surface in the second positioning portion 80 at each of the left and right ends of the front upper wall 19. The pair of left and right through holes 55 are fitted into the pair of left and right through holes 55 one by one from the upper side Z1, and the pair of left and right insertion holes 90 are shifted from the pair of left and right screw holes 56 in the mounting surface 25 to the front side X1. Accordingly, when each second positioning portion 80 is slightly shifted to the rear side X2, the pair of left and right claws 91 are shifted to the rear side X2 while being fitted in the through hole 55, and cannot be detached from the through hole 55. The pair of left and right insertion holes 90 coincide with the pair of left and right screw holes 56 one by one in plan view. In this state, when the bolts 98 are inserted one by one from the upper side Z1 into the pair of left and right insertion holes 90 and screwed into the screw holes 56 on the main body part 12 side, each second positioning part 80 is attached to the main body part 12.

FIG. 6C is an enlarged view of a portion surrounded by a one-dot chain line circle in FIG. 6A as seen from another direction.

  When the second positioning portion 80 is attached to the placement surface 25 as described above, the base portion 96 of the two legs 95 on the front side X1 is accommodated in the accommodation space of the second positioning portion 80 as shown in FIG. 88 is completely accommodated. The base portion 96 accommodated in the accommodation space 88 can go out of the accommodation space 88 only from the inlet 87 opened to the rear side X2. On the other hand, the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 positioned by the first positioning portion 27 cannot move to the rear side X2 (see FIG. 6B), and the relative positions of all four legs 95 are Since it is constant, the base portion 96 of the two legs 95 on the front side X1 cannot come out from the inlet 87 of the second positioning portion 80 to the front side X1. Therefore, the legs 95 other than the legs 95 positioned by the first positioning unit 27 in the laundry device 11 are positioned in both the front-rear direction X and the left-right direction Y by the second positioning unit 80.

  This completes the installation of the laundry device 11 on the gantry 10. In the laundry machine 11 that has been installed, all the legs 95 are positioned by the first positioning part 27 and the second positioning part 80 and cannot move in the front-rear direction X and the left-right direction Y. 10 in a state in which relative movement is impossible in both the front-rear direction X and the left-right direction Y.

  As described above, the operator who performs the installation temporarily places the leg 95 of the laundry device 11 on an appropriate position on the placement surface 25 without maintaining the state in which the laundry device 11 is lifted. The laundry machine 11 is attached to the gantry 10 with a small burden by sliding the upper part and positioning it by the first positioning part 27, and then attaching the second positioning part 80 to the mounting surface 25 and positioning the other legs 95. Can be installed. As a result, the installability of the laundry machine 11 can be improved.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 6B, since the cover portion 31 that is a part of the first positioning portion 27 covers the accommodation space 33 from the upper side Z1, the base portion 96 of the leg 95 in the accommodation space 33 is accommodated. Since it can prevent coming off from the space 33 to the upper side Z1, the fall and fall of the laundry machine 11 resulting from the leg 95 coming off from the accommodating space 33 to the upper side Z1 can be prevented.

  Further, the peripheral edge portion of the concave portion 34 in the cover portion 31 of the first positioning portion 27 is not in contact with the shaft portion 97 of the leg 95 on the rear side X <b> 2 positioned by the first positioning portion 27. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the leg 95 from being damaged due to metal fatigue caused by contact with the cover part 31 while vibrating the laundry device 11, and the vibration of the leg 95 is applied to the gantry 10 via the cover part 31. It is also possible to prevent transmission. Further, since the base portion 96 of the leg 95 is accommodated with some play in the accommodating space 33, it is possible to prevent excessive vibration from being transmitted from the leg 95 to the gantry 10 during the operation of the laundry device 11. . For this reason, it is preferable that the base portion 96 is also in non-contact with the first positioning portion 27, similarly to the shaft portion 97.

  Similarly to the first positioning portion 27, as shown in FIG. 6C, the cover portion 84 of the second positioning portion 80 covers the accommodation space 88 from the upper side Z1, so that the base portion of the leg 95 in the accommodation space 88 is covered. Since 96 can be prevented from coming off from the storage space 88 to the upper side Z1, it is possible to prevent the laundry machine 11 from falling and falling due to the legs 95 coming off from the storage space 88 to the upper side Z1.

  Further, in the two legs 95 on the front side X <b> 1 positioned by the second positioning portion 80, the shaft portion 97 is not in contact with the peripheral edge portion of the concave portion 89 in the cover portion 84. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the leg 95 from being damaged by metal fatigue caused by contact with the cover portion 84 while vibrating the laundry device 11, and the vibration of the leg 95 is applied to the gantry 10 via the cover portion 84. It is also possible to prevent transmission. Further, since the base portion 96 of the leg 95 is accommodated with some play in the accommodating space 88, it is possible to prevent excessive vibration from being transmitted from the leg 95 to the gantry 10 during operation of the laundry machine 11. . For this reason, it is preferable that the base portion 96 is also in non-contact with the second positioning portion 80, similarly to the shaft portion 97.

  The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the claims.

  For example, each leg 95 of the laundry device 11 can adjust the protrusion amount to the lower side Z2, and the level of the laundry device 11 on the gantry 10 can be adjusted by adjusting the protrusion amount of each leg 95. May be.

  In addition, the laundry machine 11 has four legs 95 in total, the two legs 95 on the rear side X2 are positioned by the first positioning part 27, and the two legs 95 on the front side X1 are positioned by the second positioning part 80. Although positioned, another leg 95 may exist between the front and rear legs 95, between the two legs 95 on the front side X1, and between the two legs 95 on the rear side X2. In a state where the laundry machine 11 is installed on the gantry 10, the other leg 95 may be positioned with respect to the gantry 10, or may be simply placed on the mounting surface 25 of the gantry 10 without being positioned.

  Moreover, in the gantry 10, the number of the anchor members 13 and the adjustment legs 14 can be changed arbitrarily. Moreover, although each of the 1st positioning part 27 and the 2nd positioning part 80 was made into the left-right pair, the structure provided only in the one side in the left-right direction Y may also be sufficient.

  Further, depending on the installation state of the gantry 10, the front-rear direction and the left-right direction of the gantry 10 are opposite to the directions described so far, or the front-rear direction and the left-right direction of the gantry 10 are switched. Sometimes.
