Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a support structure for a handrail cap used when fixing to a support base such as a wall of a handrail, and in particular, it is capable of reliably fixing the handrail cap. This relates to the support structure for handrail hats.

In recent years, the safety and good feel of the handrails made up of handrails have been evaluated, and various types of handrails have been proposed in which the outer circumferential surface is coated with a covering material such as a soft synthetic resin.

However, in this case, as the outer circumferential surface of the handrail hat is covered with a covering material, even if you try to support it with a bracket, it will not fit properly due to the elasticity of the covering material, so it was desired to support this handrail hat reliably. .

[Conventional technology]

FIG. 5 shows a conventional handrail support structure of this type.

This conventional example has a bracket 1 and a handrail 2 with a cap 3.
A receiving seat 4 is formed to support the cap 3, and after placing the cap 3 on this receiving seat 4, it is fixed with appropriate fasteners 5 such as screws.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, in this conventional example, since the covering material 7 of the cap 3 is interposed between the receiving seat 4 of the bracket 1 and the core pipe 6 of the cap 3 as described above, for example, When a load is applied to the cap 3, the sheathing material 7 between the receiving seat 4 and the core tube 6 is elastically deformed, resulting in a very poor seating position.

The present invention has been made in response to such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a support structure for a handrail cap that can securely fix the cap 3 of the handrail 2 to the bracket 1.

[Means for solving problems]

In FIG. 1, a support structure for a balustrade corresponding to an embodiment of the invention is shown.

The bracket 1 is fixed to a support base 8 such as a wall surface, and is configured to support a handrail cap 3, which will be described later, on its receiving seat 4.
A supporting protrusion 9 whose upper surface is an arcuate surface having a curvature matching the outer periphery of a core tube 6, which will be described later, is provided in a protruding manner.

On the other hand, the cap 3 is formed by covering the outer surface of the core tube 6 with a covering material 7, and is intended to improve the feel or safety.

Then, the covering material 7 of the Kasagi 3 at the portion corresponding to the supporting protrusion 9 of the bracket 1 is cut off.
Since the core tube 6 is exposed and forms the supported part 10, when the cap 3 is supported by the bracket 1, the support protrusion 9 of the bracket 1 and the supported part 10 of the cap 3 are in contact with each other. It is in a state of

[Effect]

According to the conventional example, when the cap 3 is placed and supported on the receiving seat 4 of the bracket 1, the covering material 7 is placed between the receiving seat 4 of the bracket 1 and the core pipe 6 of the cap 3.
was involved, making it impossible to reliably support Kasagi 3.

In the present invention, by cutting off the covering material 7 of the cap 3 to form a supported part 10, and bringing this supported part 10 into contact with the supporting protrusion 9 of the bracket 1,
This is to prevent the cap 3 from shaking and to reliably support the cap 3.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the support structure for a handrail hat according to the present invention.

In this embodiment, the bracket 1 is made of a metal such as an aluminum alloy or a zinc alloy, or a hard synthetic resin having a certain strength, and has a circular arc shape at its upper end having approximately the same diameter as the outer circumference of the cap 3. The surface is recessed to form a receiving seat 4.

A supporting protrusion 9 is protruded from approximately the center of the receiving seat 4 and has an upper end surface having approximately the same diameter as the outer periphery of the core tube 6 of the Kasagi 3 and can come into contact with the core tube 6. ing.

On the other hand, the cap 3 in this embodiment is formed by coating the outer surface of a core pipe 6 formed of a round steel pipe with a soft material such as a soft synthetic resin or synthetic rubber, and the bottom part is covered with a soft material such as a soft synthetic resin or synthetic rubber. The core tube 6 is cut out to a size that allows the support protrusion 9 to fit into it.
is partially exposed, and a supported portion 10 is formed.

Therefore, in order to fix the handrail 3 according to this embodiment using the bracket 1, first, the covering material 7 located on the back side of the cap 3 is cut out into a substantially rectangular shape at appropriate intervals to form the supported part 10. This supported part 10
After the bracket 1 is positioned so that the supporting protrusion 9 of the bracket 1 is fitted into contact with the bracket 1, the bracket 1 is fixed to the cap 3 using fasteners 5 such as screws.

Next, the bracket 1 is fixed at its fixed portion 1a to a support base 8 such as a wall surface, and the cap 3 is installed.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a bracket 1 used in a second embodiment of the invention.

In this embodiment, unlike the first embodiment described above, the support protrusion 9 formed on the bracket 1 is
The figure shows a case in which a total of four support protrusions are formed at the intersections of the rectangles, instead of one, and the tips of these four support protrusions 9, 9... are connected to the core pipe 6 of the Kasagi 3.
By abutting against the outer periphery of the ring, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be achieved.

In this case, the supported portion 10 is
A plurality of them may be formed in order to correspond to...

In addition, in the above-mentioned first and second embodiments, the case where the bracket 1 and the capacitor 3 are connected using the fastener 5 such as a screw is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, It goes without saying that the anchor bolt 11 may be used as shown in FIG.
a to hole 1b of bracket 1 and hole 3a of Kasagi 3.
After inserting the pin 11b into the anchor bolt body 11a, the stopper portion 11c at the tip of the anchor bolt body 11a is expanded to prevent it from coming off, and the nut 11d is tightened to firmly fix it. Just do it like this.

Furthermore, the fastening positions of the fasteners 5 and the like are not limited to those shown in the embodiments; for example, as shown in FIG. 4, it is also possible to fasten them from the outside of the bracket 1. In this case, even after the bracket 1 is fixed to the support base 8 in advance,
It is possible to arrange the Kasagi 3.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As is clear from the above description, according to the support structure for the handrail hat according to the present invention, the supporting protrusion of the bracket is supported by being brought into contact with the supported part formed by cutting off the covering material of the hat. Therefore, after installing the hat, it will not wobble or come loose due to the influence of the covering material.
can be supported reliably.

In addition, since the supported portion can be easily formed at a desired position, the support position can be arbitrarily selected by the bracket according to the convenience of construction, and the degree of freedom in construction can be improved.
