A pair of left and right second locking pieces 22 for locking the head box B are provided at the base end of the head box B.
The hooking piece 22 has a hook-shaped shape that protrudes toward the base end of the fitting part 14, and the protruding piece 10 is attached to the side part.
An insertion groove 23 for avoiding the guide piece 9 is provided between the lower surface of the fitting part 14 and the lower surface of the fitting part 14 .

Next, the operation of the head box mounting bracket constructed in this way will be explained.

In order to fix the head box B to a wall or ceiling, first fix the metal fitting main body 1 to the wall or ceiling at its vertical piece 2 or horizontal piece 5. When the fitting part 14 of the support member 13 is fitted into the metal fitting main body 1 from the proximal end side in the direction of the arrow in FIG. The thirteen second locking pieces 22 move below the guide piece 9 and the protruding piece 10. Further, the fitting part 14 is fitted with the locking protrusion 21 pressed against the inner surface of the horizontal piece 5 and bent inward, and once the locking protrusion 21 passes through the engagement hole 12, When attempting to pull out the support member 13 from the metal fitting body 1, the locking protrusion 21 engages with the engagement hole 12 to prevent further movement.

To attach the head box B to this support metal fitting, as shown in FIG. 11, and bring the other side of the upper part into contact with the lower edge of the horizontal piece 5. In this state, when the fitting part 14 is further inserted into the metal fitting body 1, the tongue piece 17 is bent upward, and the locking protrusion 19 rides over the protrusion piece 10 as shown in FIG. At this time, the second hooking piece 22 of the support member 13 supports the other side of the head box B, as shown in the figure. Therefore,
In this state, the support member 13 has its locking protrusion 19 engaged with the protruding piece 10 and cannot move in the removal direction (rightward in FIG. 5), and the second locking piece 22 is engaged with the head box B. The head box B is abutted and cannot be moved in the insertion direction, and the head box B can be reliably supported by cooperation with the metal fitting main body 1.

To remove the head box B from its support metal fitting, engage a screwdriver or the like in the locking groove 18 from the state shown in FIG. It can be moved toward the right in the figure. Then, the sixth
