Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Technical field) This invention is an eaves attached to the wall of a building.
In particular, the present invention relates to a support reinforcement device suitable for an eave having a long horizontal length.

(Prior art) When placing eaves above windows, entrances, etc. for sun protection, rain protection, etc., if the eaves have a cantilevered structure and a relatively long horizontal length, There was a problem in that the eaves were deformed downward as a whole.

In order to prevent this deformation, conventionally, a support reinforcing device is used, which is made of a highly rigid Z-shaped metal plate and has a pair of bent ends that are respectively fixed to the eaves and the wall surface to which the eaves are attached. .

However, in the conventional support reinforcing device, it is not possible to change the preset bending angle of the bent end or change the length dimension between both bent ends at the installation site. When actually installing the support reinforcement device, if slight changes are required in the vicinity of the placement position, fine adjustments cannot be made, and even if it is desired to change the placement position, this may not be possible. I was unable to respond to this.

(Purpose) The purpose of the present invention is to provide a support reinforcing device that enables eaves to be supported and reinforced at the most suitable position at the eaves installation site, and which can easily carry out the support and reinforcement work. be.

(Structure) The eaves support reinforcement device according to the present invention includes a bracket fixed to a wall surface and a support rod, and the support rod is removably fitted to a pipe member and both ends of the pipe member. and a pair of joint members pivotally connected to the eaves and the bracket, and the tube member and each joint member each have a groove and a protrusion that extend in the axial direction of the tube member and are engageable with each other.

In this invention, "fixed to a wall" includes both cases where it is fixed directly to a wall and cases where it is indirectly fixed to a wall through an object attached to the wall (for example, a shutter case). shall be held.

(Function and Effect) According to the present invention, since the support rod is composed of a pipe member and a joint member that is removably fitted to each end of the pipe member, the length of the support rod can be increased by cutting the pipe member at the site. Since the support rod is pivoted to the eaves and the bracket, the angle of inclination of the support rod with respect to the eaves and wall surface can be freely set. Based on these facts, according to the present invention,
The eaves can be supported and reinforced at the most suitable location.

Further, according to the present invention, since the tube member and each joint member have mutually engageable grooves and protrusions extending in the axial direction of the tube member,
Both joint members can be maintained in a fixed position about the axis of the tube member. Therefore, it is possible to easily and reliably obtain parallelism between the axes of holes provided in both joint members, for example, for pivotally connecting the support rod to the eaves and the bracket. The installation work, that is, the work of supporting and reinforcing the eaves can be performed easily and in a short time.

(Embodiments) The features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description of the illustrated embodiments.

The eaves 10 includes a pair of arms 14 and vertical bars 16 that are spaced apart in the horizontal direction and intersect with each other at right angles, and an eaves frame 18 that is disposed between the tips of the pair of arms 14.
and the ridgepole frame 20 arranged between the upper ends of the vertical beams 16
and a plurality of rafters 22 arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction between the purlin frame and the eave frame 18, and the pair of vertical beams 16 and the purlin frame 20 are fixed to the wall surface 12. ing. The rafters 22 are curved outward from the wall surface 12, but straight ones may also be used. The part between the plurality of rafters 22 and the arm 1
4. A cloth (not shown) is stretched over the area surrounded by the vertical beams 16 and the rafters 22, or a transparent plate 24 (FIG. 2) is fitted.

Referring to FIG. 2, a support reinforcement device 26 according to the present invention is disposed inside the eave 10. The support reinforcing device 26 includes a bracket 28 fixed to the wall surface 12, a bracket 30 fixed to the rafter 22 if necessary, and a support rod 32 connected to both brackets 28, 30. With respect to one or more rafters 22, excluding the rafters located at , the rafters 22 are arranged in an elevation plane perpendicular to the wall surface 12.

Each bracket has a U-shaped cross section, as shown in FIG. 3, and is provided with two holes 34 and 36 on each side and base thereof, respectively.

The support rod 32 is a tube member 33 as shown in FIG.
and a joint member 38 as shown in FIG.

The joint member 38 has a base portion 38a that is removably fitted into the tube member 33, and a flat portion 38b that is continuous with the base portion and is received between both sides of the bracket.

A plurality of grooves a extending in the axial direction are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the tube member 33, and when the tube member 33 and the joint member 38 are joined, the base portion provided on the outer circumferential surface of the base portion 38a of the joint member A plurality of protrusions b extending in the axial direction of 38b engage with the grooves a, thereby preventing the two members from rotating relative to each other. Further, since both joint members 38 are maintained at a constant position around the axis of the tube member 33, both joint members 38
The axes of the later-described holes 42 provided in the flat portion 38b of No. 8 can be made parallel to each other.

A screw 4 passing through the tube member 33 is attached to the base 38a.
0 (FIG. 6) is provided to prevent the joint member 38 from slipping out of the tube member 33.

On the other hand, the flat part 38b of the joint member is connected to the hole 42.
and, as shown in FIG. 6, is pivotally attached to the bracket 30 by a bolt 44 extending through a hole 34 on either side of the bracket and a hole 42 in the flat portion 38b of the joint member;
It is then fastened via a nut 45. The bracket 30 is also secured to the inner center of the rafter 22 by a screw 46 extending through a hole 36 in its base. Note that the bracket 28 placed on the wall surface 12
Regarding the connection relationship between and the joint member 38,
