Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a structure for attaching a fallen leaf net to prevent fallen leaves from entering eaves gutters.

[Background technology] If fallen leaves get into the eaves gutters, the insides of the eaves gutters become clogged, which may impair the ability to drain rainwater. For this purpose, a fallen leaf net is stretched and attached to the opening on the upper surface of the eaves gutter to prevent fallen leaves from entering the eaves gutter. Conventionally, when attaching fallen leaf nets to eaves gutters, it was done by attaching the nets to eaves gutters or eaves gutter restraints using wire, which was a time-consuming process. There was a problem.

[Purpose of the invention] The present invention was made in view of the above points, and it is possible to install a fallen leaf net with simple work, and in addition, it is possible to attach a fallen leaf net to accommodate ears of various sizes. The object of the present invention is to provide a structure for attaching a fallen leaf net to an eaves gutter, in which the net can be attached.

[Disclosure of the invention] However, the attachment structure of the fallen leaf net to the eaves gutter according to the invention includes a plurality of side pieces 2 at one side end of the upper piece 1 and a plurality of elastic side pieces 3 at the other side end. A receiver 4 is formed in a substantially U-shaped cross section extending downward and opening at the lower surface, and a hooking piece 5 protrudes from the outer surface of the side piece 2.
At the same time, locking protrusions 6a and 6b are formed to protrude inwardly at different vertical positions at the lower end of each elastic side piece 3, and hook pieces 5 are attached to the outer periphery of the ears 8 on both sides of the eaves gutter 7. Each receiver 4 is attached to the ear 8 by fitting the receiver 4 so as to face inward and locking the locking protrusions 6a, 6b to the lower edge of the ear 8. It is characterized in that both ends of the fallen leaf net 9 disposed in the upper opening are hooked and locked to the hook pieces 5 of each receiver 4, and are hooked to the ears 8 of the eaves gutter 7. By fitting the receiver 4 and hooking and locking the fallen leaf net 9 to the hook piece 5 of the receiver 4, the leaf net 9 can be attached to the eaves gutter 7 without using wire or the like. In addition, by selecting the locking protrusions 6a and 6b to be locked to the lower edge of the ear 8, the receiver 4 can be attached to the ear 8 without any problem even if the size of the ear 8 is different. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to Examples.

The receiver 4 is constructed by extending the side piece 2 from one side end of the upper piece 1 and the elastic side piece 3 from the other side end, respectively, so that the lower surface can be fixed as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. It is formed by bending a metal plate to have a substantially U-shaped cross section with an opening, and a hook piece 5 is formed on the side piece 2 by cutting and raising it so as to protrude upward.
A plurality of elastic side pieces 3, three in this embodiment, are provided, and locking protrusions 6a, 6b convexly curved inward are formed at the lower end of each elastic side piece 3.
A guide piece 12 is provided at the lower end of each of the locking protrusions 6a, 6b and extends diagonally downward toward the outside. Of the locking protrusions 6a and 6b, in this embodiment, the locking protrusions 6 are provided at the same height position on each of the elastic side pieces 3a and 3a on both sides.
a, 6a, and a locking protrusion 6b is provided on the central elastic side piece 3b at a higher position. On the other hand, the fallen leaf net 9 may be made of wire mesh, plastic mesh, or the like.

Therefore, when attaching the fallen leaf net 9 to the eaves gutter 7, first install the ears 8 on both sides of the eaves gutter 7,
Insert and attach the receivers 4 to each of the holes 8 and 8.
As shown in FIG. 1, each receiver 4 is attached to the ear part 8 so that the hook 5 faces inward of the eaves gutter 7. At this time, when the receiver 4 is pressed into the ear 8 from above, the elastic side piece 3 is elastically deformed to bend outward due to the guiding action of the guide piece 12, and the ear 8 is inserted into the receiver 4. will be
When the ear part 8 is inserted into the receiver 4 in this way, the elastic restoring force of the elastic side piece 3 causes the locking protrusions 6a, 6
One of b is locked to the outer lower edge of the ear part 8.
Therefore, the receiver 4 can be attached simply by pressing the receiver 4 into the ear portion 8 from above. After the receivers 4 are attached in this manner, the leaf nets 9 are arranged at the upper openings of the eaves gutters 7, and the meshes at both ends of the leaf nets 9 are connected to the hooks 4 of each receiver 4. By inserting the fallen leaf net 9 into the upper surface of the eaves gutter 7 and hooking it into place, the fallen leaf net 9 can be attached to the upper opening of the eaves gutter 7 in a stretched state.

Here, when the size of the ear portion 8 of the eaves gutter 7 is small, especially the vertical dimension, the locking protrusion 6b located on the upper side is locked to the lower edge of the ear portion 8 as shown in Fig. 4a. The tool 4 can be attached.
Further, when the vertical dimension of the ear part 8 of the eaves gutter 7 is large, the elastic side piece 3b bends outward with the locking protrusion 6b in contact with the ear part 8, and as shown in FIG. 4b, the elastic side piece 3b bends downward. The positioned locking protrusion 6a can be locked to the lower edge of the ear portion 8. Therefore, even if the sizes of the ears 8 of the eaves gutter 7 are different, the receiver 4 can be attached without any problem.

Incidentally, since the central elastic side piece 3b is bent so as to protrude obliquely outward, this elastic side piece 3b
b can be used to tie antenna wires, or a rod can be inserted into this elastic side piece 3b for reinforcement.

[Effects of the invention] As described above, in the present invention, the retainers are fitted to the outer periphery of the ears on both sides of the eaves gutter so that the hook pieces face inward of the eaves gutter, and the locking protrusions are attached to the ears. Attach each receiver to the ear by locking it to the lower edge of the eaves gutter, and hook and lock both ends of the leaf net installed in the upper opening of the eaves gutter to the hook pieces of each receiver. As a result, the leaf net can be attached to the eaves gutter by fitting the receiver into the ear part of the eaves gutter and hooking and locking the leaf net to the hooking piece of the receiver. The fallen leaf net can be easily installed without the need to use a net. Further, a side piece is provided at one side end of the upper piece, and a plurality of elastic side pieces are provided at the other side end extending downward, and locking protrusions are formed protruding from the lower end of each elastic side piece at different up and down positions. By selecting the locking protrusion that locks onto the lower edge of the ear, the receiver can be attached to the ear without any problem even if the dimensions of the ear are different. With this, it is possible to attach fallen leaf nets to eaves gutters that have ears of various sizes.
