<Embodiment> The present invention will be specifically described below based on an illustrated embodiment. Reference numeral 1 denotes a hanging hook according to the present invention, and a clothes dryer 2 to which the present invention is applied has a hanger body 3 below the hanging hook 1. Various kinds of hanger bodies 3 can be applied. First, in the case shown in FIG. 1, for example, a holder 5 is rotatably attached below the hanging hook 1, and a chain is attached to the holder 5 in four directions. 6, a rectangular hanger frame 7 is hung, as an example. The hanger frame 7 is constructed so as to be pivotally bendable at its central connecting portion 8 so as to be compact in the stored state. A large number of pinches 9 are provided on the hanger frame 7. Of course, the hanger body 3 applied to the clothes dryer 2 can be applied to various embodiments other than this, and as shown in FIG. 7, for example, a large number of radial clothes dryers are provided below the hanging hook 1. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8, an appropriate form such as a clothes hanging hook member provided on two parallel hanger frames 7 may be applied. The suspension hook 1 will be described in detail below. First, the suspension hook 1 comprises a main body 11 as a strength member, and a side cover plate 12 forming a part thereof is configured as a separate member to close one side surface portion. The configuration is as follows. Further provided is a shutter body 13 which is rotatably attached to the body 11 and has a function of directly preventing the article from falling off from the clothes rod. The body 11, the side cover plate 12, and the shutter body 13 are provided. The hanging hook 1 is composed of three members. First, the main body 11 will be described. A hook-shaped hanging portion 15 is formed above the main body 11, and a hook-shaped curved inner lower portion serves as a rod receiving portion 16 for receiving the dried rod A. There is a rod entrance 17 on the open entrance side.
By the way, since the rod receiving port 17 is maintained in the closed state by the shutter body 13, the clothes dryer 2 from the clothes rod A is
Is prevented from falling off. Further, the hook receiving portion 15 is formed above the rod receiving portion 16 so as to partially recess the hook-shaped hanging portion 15, and a string receiving portion 18 for hooking the clothes-line B is provided. The main body side plate 19 integrally formed below the hook-shaped hanging portion 15 forms a substantially columnar pin 20 protruding toward the inside thereof, and a part of the pin 20 is cut out in a plane. Notch surface
21. The pin 20 rotatably supports the shutter body 13 and is configured such that the notch surface 21 sets the stereoscopic posture of the shutter body 13. This operation mode will be described later. Furthermore, the body side plate
Reference numeral 19 denotes a release piece 23 formed by cutting a substantially central portion into a tongue shape, and a pin-shaped pushing projection 24 is formed inside the free end side. Incidentally, the push-in projection 24 has a function of releasing the state in which the shutter main body 13 is performing the closing operation during operation. Further, as an example, the main body side plate 19 has side cover plate locking holes 26 for attaching the side cover plate 12 at three positions. Also, below the main body 11, the holder mounting claw
27 is formed, and a circular flange 28 is formed above it so as to partially cover the holder 5. The holder mounting claw 27 has a shape such that it is bisected in the diametrical direction at the center, and is temporarily bent by press fitting of the locking hole of the holder 5 to allow fitting, and thereafter, it has a check claw shape. The protrusion 29 prevents the protrusion. On the other hand, the side cover plate 12 which is a member different from the main member of the main body 11 but which is substantially integrally assembled and substantially forms a part of the main body 11 will be described.
This one has three main body engaging claws 31 which are engaged with the side cover plate engaging holes 26 toward the inner surface side, and has a tongue-like positioner 32 substantially at the center thereof.
The positioner 32 is provided with a locking projection 33 on its free end side, and the locking projection 33 engages with a part of the shutter body 13 to positionally position the shutter body 13 at a predetermined position. Maintain the positioning state. Next, the shutter main body 13 assembled to the main body 11 will be described. First, this shutter main body has a bearing hole 35 substantially in the center thereof, and the tongue-shaped rotation restricting tongue faces the bearing hole 35. The piece 36 is integrally formed. By the way, when the bearing hole 35 is fitted into the pin 20 of the main body 11, the rotation restricting tongue piece 36 is set in such a state that it comes into contact with the notch surface 1 and always pushes it out. Further, the shutter main body 13 is provided with a closing holding projection 37 and a rotary pushing projection 38 which are opposed to each other at an angle of about 90 °, and the rotary pushing projection 38 side is formed by partially hollowing out the inside thereof. To form a thin flexible piece 39. By the way, as will be described later, the flexible piece 39 is configured to be able to accept even if the rod diameter of the clothes-drying rod A is different, by slightly bending. Further, the closing and holding projection 37 and the rotation pushing projection 38 can move in a state of overhanging near the rod receiving portion 16 and the rod receiving opening 17 inside the hook-shaped hanging portion 15, but inside the main body 11. The shutter main body 13 in the portion that fits on the side is formed with a closing positioning portion 41 that substantially regulates its posture setting, and a guide taper 42 is formed from there toward the closing holding projection 37 side, and at the end portion thereof. Has a regulation step 43. Then, the locking projection 33 of the positioner 32 on the main body 11 side comes into pressure contact with the area where the closing positioning portion 41, the guide taper 42 and the restriction step 43 are formed, and the shift state of the shutter main body 13 is set.

The suspension hook 1 to which the present invention is applied has the specific structure as described above and is used as follows.

i) Use start state The use start state is as shown in Fig. 5 (a).
Reference numeral 13 is a state in which it is biased in the clockwise direction in the figure, and in this state, the rotation pushing projection 38 in the shutter body 13 is biased to the rod receiving port 17 side, and that portion is closed. It is in such a state. In this state, the positioner 32 that substantially regulates the position setting of the shutter body 13
The locking projection 33 in the
Located on side 43. Therefore, in this case, the locking protrusion 33
By contacting the regulation step 43, the rotation pushing protrusion 38 is set in a state in which it cannot move further to the side further opening from the rod receiving port 17, and conversely, the rotation pushing protrusion 38 is It is configured so that it can freely rotate in the direction of passing through the rod receiving portion 17 through the rod receiving portion 16 and further to the inner portion thereof.
That is, this rotatable state is guided by the presence of the guide taper 42 so that the locking projection 33 of the positioner 32 can be smoothly pushed up.

ii) When hanging on the clothes rod A When hanging the hanging hook 1 on the clothes rod A from such a state, for example, the hanging hook 1 is simply held and the clothes rod A is put on the rod receiving port 17. It suffices to put the rotary push-in projection 38 that closes the rod receiving port 17 as it is and push it inward. As described above, since the movement of the shutter main body 13 in this direction is slowed down, the rod receiving portion 16 remains unchanged.
On the other hand, the clothes rod A can be locked. As the rotation pushing protrusion 38 is pushed, the closing and holding protrusion 37, which is integrated with the rotation pushing protrusion 38, naturally moves from the state where it is retracted below the rod receiving port 17 to the upward movement, and is shown in FIG. 5 (b). The rod entrance 17 should be closed halfway. Of course, in this case, the distance between the hook-shaped hanging portion 15 and the closure holding projection 37 (indicated by reference numeral 1 in the figure) at the rod receiving port 17 may be at least smaller than the rod diameter. Then, in this state, the locking projection 33 comes into engagement with the closing positioning portion 41 of the shutter main body 13 that has rotated to the position of the locking projection 33 of the positioner 32 in the main body 11, Maintain position. Therefore, unless the engagement between the locking projection 33 of the positioner 32 and the closing positioning portion 41 is artificially released, the rod receiving port
The closed state of the shutter body 13 of the shutter body 13 by the closing holding projection 37 is maintained.

iii) Detachment operation From this state, the operation of detaching this from the clothes rod A is performed by the user pushing the release piece 23 integrally formed on the main body side plate 19 of the main body 11 inward. At this time, the pushing projection 24 formed inside the release piece 23 pushes in the vicinity of the middle of the positioner 32 provided opposite thereto, and the positioner 32 is retracted to the outside to close the locking projection 33. The concave-convex engagement with the positioning portion 41 is released. If the shutter main body 13 is held in such a state, the shutter main body 13 can be rotated in a direction in which the closed state by the closing holding projection 37 is released. To do. By operating in this way, the shutter main body 13 rotates in response to the operation of pulling out the clothes rod A, and is displaced to the initial state. At this time, the shutter body 13 that has rotated to a certain degree is pinned at the center of its rotation.
By the pressure contact between the notch surface 21 of 20 and the rotation restricting tongue piece 36, a stereotactic posture is set so as to elastically return to the initial state.

iv) Suspending with a clothesline In this case, since the diameter of the clothesline B is sufficiently thin,
From the initial state shown in FIG.
The operation of passing the string to the side allows the clothes-string B to be the rod receiving portion 16
The shutter main body 13 returns to the initial state by a stereotactic posture setting made by the rotation restricting tongue piece 36 and the notch surface 21 of the pin 20 after slightly rotating. Then, in order to further firmly lock the clothes-cord B, the cord-accepting portion formed in the hook-shaped hanging portion 15 of the main body 11
It is locked to the part of 18. And the clothes-line B is a rotation pushing protrusion.
Since 38 cannot move to the open side, the hanging hook 1 in this part is prevented from coming off. Then, in order to remove the hanging hook 1 from the clothes line B, as an example, the rotary push-in projection 38 in the shutter body 13 or the intermediate portion between this and the closing and holding projection 37 is held in a state in which the trigger is gripped on the rear side. Then, the space between the rotary push-in projection 38 and the hook-shaped hanging portion 15 is opened and removed so that the clothes-line B comes out.

v) Application of large-diameter rod Incidentally, the commercially available dried rods A have almost fixed diameters, but some of them have a slightly larger diameter. Even in such a case, in the embodiment of the present invention, the rotary pushing protrusion 38
Forms a flexible piece 39 in which the contact position with the clothes rod A is in a flexible state. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5 (c), even if the rod diameter is large, it flexes a little to accept it. It is possible.

<Effects of the Invention> The present invention has the configuration as described above, and when the shutter body 13 is rotationally shifted, its positioning, elastic stereotactic setting, etc. are all performed by the body member or the shutter body 13. By utilizing the elastic operation of the members, it is possible to maintain a reasonably and surely suspended state while reducing the number of parts.
