Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a gutter support for fixing a gutter to a fixed surface such as a wall or a pillar of a building.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a vertical gutter has been used as a practical method.
As described in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 436, for example, a wall or a pillar of a building is inserted through a vertical gutter support including a holding portion capable of holding a vertical gutter and a fixing portion fixed to a fixed surface of the building. It is fixed to the fixed surface. However, the generally used gutter holders are plastic injection-molded products and metal plate bending products, and the range of elastic deformation is extremely limited.Therefore, when something hits the gutter. , Could not absorb the shock and was often broken.

As a solution to such a problem,
As described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 52-19024, there is a vertical gutter support in which a fixed portion is connected to a holding portion via a coil spring. In this vertical gutter support, if something hits the vertical gutter fitted to the holding part,
The coil spring elastically deforms in the direction in which the object hits, and the vertical gutter moves integrally with the holding portion in the direction in which the coil spring elastically deforms. In other words, the shock input to the vertical gutter is
It is converted into the kinetic energy of the vertical gutter and the holding part and absorbed.

[0004]

However, in such a conventional vertical gutter support, since the shock input to the vertical gutter fitted to the holding portion can be absorbed, the vertical gutter also has a problem. Although it is difficult to break if it hits, the fixing part is formed of a plate and it was fixed to the fixed surface with nails, etc. The protruding size cannot be adjusted. If the outlet size of the vertical gutter cannot be adjusted, it may be difficult to connect the vertical gutter and the eaves gutter due to the positional relationship with the outlet of the eaves gutter.

The present invention pays attention to the above problems and can absorb the shock input to the down gutter, and the size of the down gutter based on the fixed surface such as the wall or the pillar of the building. It is intended to provide a downspout support that can also be adjusted.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a vertical gutter support of the present invention comprises a holding part capable of holding a vertical gutter, a nail rod having a sharp tip, and the holding part. And a coil spring connecting the base end portion of the nail rod with a predetermined gap.

[0007]

According to the vertical gutter support of the present invention, the nail gutter is driven into a fixed surface such as a wall or a pillar of a building and then the vertical gutter is fitted into a holding portion. With this, it is possible to adjust the protruding size of the vertical gutter based on the fixed surface.

Further, in the vertical gutter support of the present invention, when an object hits the vertical gutter fitted into the holding portion, the coil spring elastically deforms in the direction in which the object hits, and the vertical gutter is held accordingly. The coil spring moves in the direction in which the coil spring is elastically deformed integrally with the portion. In other words, the impact input to the vertical gutter is converted into kinetic energy of the vertical gutter and the holding portion and absorbed. Further, since the coil spring can be elastically deformed in any direction of 360 degrees, the impact can be absorbed no matter what angle the object hits. Moreover, when the coil spring is restored, the vertical gutter and the holding portion are also returned to their original positions.

[0009]

EXAMPLES Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below. First, the configuration of the embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. 1 is a plan view showing a vertical gutter support of the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a main part of FIG.
In the enlarged view showing II, this vertical gutter support A has a holding portion 1,
It is composed of a nail rod 2 and a coil spring 3.

The holding portion 1 is a plastic injection-molded product and is formed in a shape for holding a vertical gutter by enclosing it 360 degrees. The holding member 11 and an opening / closing member hinged to one end of the receiving member 11. It is composed of 12 and. Also,
The receiving member 11 and the opening / closing member 12 are formed with fitting portions 13 and 14 which are fitted to each other so as to maintain the closed state when the opening / closing member 12 is closed. Further, a cylindrical rod 15 is provided on the outer surface of the receiving member 11 so as to project at a right angle, and a hole 16 into which the tip of the coil spring 3 can be inserted is formed on the peripheral surface of the rod 15. ..

The nail rod 2 is formed into a columnar shape having the same thickness as the rod 15 except the tip portion, and the tip portion is formed into a sharp shape. Also, this nail rod 2
A hole 21 into which the tip of the coil spring 3 can be inserted is formed on the peripheral surface of the, and a scale 22 is provided at a position closer to the tip than the hole 21 at a constant interval in the axial direction. Has been done.

The coil spring 3 has the holding portion 1
Rod 15 and the base end portion of the nail rod 2 are connected to each other with a predetermined gap therebetween, and one end thereof is provided with a hole 16 of the rod 15.
