Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] This invention is a rain gutter suspension that supports the rain gutter by being attached to a gable plate attached to the tip or front of the rafter of a flat roof of a house, etc. It concerns metal fittings.

[Conventional technology]

The traditional support fittings for rain gutters are semi-arculated supports formed to fit the outer bottom surface of the rain gutter with a concave arc cross section, and the bases are mounted at intervals on the front surface of rafters or gables. A rain gutter is mounted on the upper surface, and the rain gutter is connected to each support with wire or the like as necessary.

However, when the supports are exposed on the outside of the rain gutter, it not only spoils the appearance of the house, but also makes it easier for the rain gutter to come off from the support, and it takes time and effort to attach them, which reduces construction efficiency. This is what I did.

Therefore, in order to eliminate the unsightly appearance of each supporting metal fitting and to prevent the rain gutter from falling off, the outer upper edge of the rain gutter is set higher than the inner upper edge, and the outer upper edge is hooked along the outer upper edge. A hanging groove is formed in the groove, and the tip of a hanging fitting whose base is fixed to a rafter or a gable board is hung in the groove through the upper opening of the rain gutter, and the inner upper edge of the rain gutter is hung. It has been proposed to eliminate various disadvantages of the conventional support fittings, such as appearance, by fastening or clamping the suspension fittings with a support member protruding from the base of the hanging fitting.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the structure of the latter mentioned above, the metal fitting is mainly composed of two parts, and the mechanism for attaching and detaching it from the rain gutter is complicated, so it is easy for objects scattered during wind and rain to attach or accumulate on the top surface of the hanging metal fitting. However, it not only requires a great deal of troublesome work to attach and remove the rain gutter, but also has various disadvantages such as being heavy in structure, requiring time and effort to manufacture, and therefore being expensive.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to eliminate all of the conventional disadvantages mentioned above, the present invention is designed to simplify the main body of the hanging fitting as much as possible by making it an integral piece, while paying attention to the shape of the main body in order to provide supporting force, and to prevent flying objects. The surface is made as simple and smooth as possible to prevent the accumulation of adhesion, etc., and attachment and detachment from the rain gutter can be done with a single touch.Therefore, construction costs can be reduced when installing and repairing the rain gutter, and it can be done efficiently and at low cost. We provide this type of rain gutter hanging fittings that are very effective.

In other words, the main body of the present invention is a one-piece hanging fitting whose upper surface is a concave arc-shaped surface, whose cross section is inverted U-shaped, and which has a downwardly convex rib running longitudinally along the center axis of the upper surface, and whose concave arc-shaped surface is a simple smooth surface. A key-shaped presser piece is formed at the tip of the bullet piece, which has an upwardly facing hook piece formed at the tip thereof, and an inverted U-shaped base part at the rear end, and whose base end is fixed to the rear inner back surface of the main body of the metal fitting. The tip of a receiving plate that is bent inward at right angles from the center upper edge of the dragonfly metal whose center part is fixed to the middle part of the base in an intersecting manner is exposed to the lower surface of the presser piece and projects inside the base part. , the rain gutter can be attached and detached by moving the presser piece up and down.

[Effect]

When attaching a rain gutter to the rain gutter hanging fitting invented in this application, after hooking the hanging piece to one edge of the rain gutter, bend the side wall of the rain gutter inward and attach the other edge to the bottom surface of the holding piece. Place it on the presser foot and push it up against the elasticity of the presser foot.
After that, you can install it by simply letting go of the side wall. In addition, when removing, the edge of the gutter is pushed up against the elasticity of the edge of the gutter, causing the side wall of the gutter to bend inward so that the edge is clamped between the edge and the receiving plate. Release it from the position, pull out the edge diagonally downward using the part that is latched by the latching piece as a fulcrum, and then lift the edge on the side that is latched to the latching piece upwards to remove it. Gutters can be easily attached and detached.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

The rain gutter hanging metal fitting invented in the present invention allows the rain gutter to be immediately attached and removed by simply pushing up the bullet end on the rear lower surface of the metal fitting body, so work such as repair and replacement of the rain gutter can be carried out extremely quickly and efficiently. Moreover, the inner upper edge of the rain gutter can be reliably held between the holding piece and the receiving plate from above and below.

Further, since the hanging fitting main body has a concave arc-shaped upper surface, an inverted U-shaped cross section, and a downwardly convex rib running longitudinally along the central axis of the upper surface, the load-bearing strength is extremely high.

Furthermore, since the concave arc-shaped surface of the hanging fitting main body is a simple smooth surface, there is no risk of flying objects accidentally adhering or accumulating, and therefore, the flow of the rain gutter is not obstructed by these objects.

Furthermore, since the main body of the hanging metal is made of one piece, the concave arc-shaped surface of the main body of the hanging metal can be made into a simple smooth surface, and it is also lightweight and strong. This has the advantage that there is no risk of creating minute gaps between the members, and therefore flying objects will not get caught in the gaps.

〔Example〕

A tongue-shaped upward hooking piece 2 is formed at the tip of a hanging metal main body 1 whose upper surface has a shallow concave arc-shaped surface and an inverted U-shaped cross section, and has a rib R running longitudinally over the entire length of the center axis of the upper surface. An inverted U-shaped base 3 is formed at the rear end, and a key-shaped presser piece S' formed at the tip of a band-shaped elastic piece S whose base end is fixed by spot welding is attached to the back inside of the rear part of the main body of the metal fitting. and on the lower surface of the holding piece,
It is made up of a receiving plate 5 which is bent at a right angle inward from the upper edge of the center part of a dragonfly metal 4 whose center part is fixed to the inner side of the middle part of the base part 3 in an intersecting manner.
In addition, 6 in the drawing indicates that the outer upper edge F is slightly higher than the inner upper edge f, a downward groove H is formed along the inside of the outer upper edge, and a hollow square edge K is formed along the upper end of the inner upper edge f. This is a rain gutter made of synthetic resin.
