Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a support mechanism for a clothes rod receiving arm member which is provided on an outer wall of a balcony of a building and used.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, as a clothes dryer that is a necessity for general households,
In general, a type in which clothes rods are hung on a pair of stanchions erected on a heavy base. However, since its mobility and storability are inconvenient, various types of clothes dryers have been devised. Especially, in the clothes dryer used on a balcony (balcony) part, etc. Due to the larger constraints, various proposals have been made.

For example, the one disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-36156 is suitable for installation under a roof such as a veranda, but has a relatively large storage space and a complicated structure.

For this reason, for example, many arm member types have been proposed which are provided with a clothes rod receiving portion which is used by attaching the pair to the outer wall surface of the veranda portion or the handrail. For example, Japanese Patent Publication Sho 64-4800
The one disclosed in the publication is related to an example of this kind, but its configuration is relatively complicated, and, in principle, it is configured to be used in a cantilever form from a fixed portion such as a balcony handrail. However, in order to satisfy the member strength, a certain amount of weight / dimensions were required.

Therefore, the structure / strength of the arm member can be greatly simplified / reduced by supporting the tip end portion of this kind of arm member when the arm member is deployed and used. Therefore, for example, it is relatively simple as shown in FIG. Inexpensive devices are commercially available.

This figure shows a side view of one of a pair of arm members that are separated and attached in parallel, and 1 is, for example, an aluminum die-cast article pole receiving arm member, and a pair of upper and lower circular cross-section rod-shaped portions 1a. It is composed of an integral abdominal plate (web) portion 1b connecting between them, and the abdominal plate portion 1b is provided with a plurality of oval holes 2 in the longitudinal direction. It is possible to support the pair of arm members 1 by passing one or a plurality of clothes rods between the holes 2 at corresponding positions.

3 is an outer wall of the building, 6 is a sash frame for doors provided in the door opening, 4 is a veranda floor, and 5 is a handrail support.

As shown in the enlarged perspective view of the mounting portion in FIG. 3 (a), each arm member 1 is fixed to the outer wall 3 and has a pair of pins 7a each having a horizontal lateral hole. It is suspended at the uppermost two oval holes by a U-shaped hanging metal fitting 8 having two horizontal legs that are pivotally inserted through each lateral hole.

Further, the lower end portion of each arm member 1 is provided with hook fittings 9 provided on the veranda handrail support column 5 at the corresponding position,
A hook is hooked on the oval hole 2 at the lower end of each arm member 1 so that the arm member 1 functions as a simple support beam at both ends.
The above purpose was achieved.

On the other hand, in order to store these arm members 1 when not in use, the restraint of the hooked metal fitting 9 at the lower end portion is removed, and the arm metal fitting 1 is vertically suspended from the bracket 7 together with the hanging metal fitting 8 as shown in FIG. 3 (b). In this way, the arm member 1 is rotated around a vertical axis of 90 ° so as to be substantially parallel to the outer wall surface 3, and is slightly lifted to hook and support the upper part of the uppermost oval hole 2 on one pin 7a, thereby storing space. Is minimized.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, in the conventional product as described above, the pair of hook fittings 9 is fixedly attached to the veranda handrail support column 5 regardless of whether each arm member 1 is used or stored. However, there is a restriction that the appearance is unpleasant and the cost is increased, and the mounting bracket position of the arm member 1 is limited to the position of the corresponding handrail support column 5.

The present invention has been made to solve the problems of the conventional products as described above, and does not require any special cost.
Moreover, it aims at providing each arm member support means which is not restricted by each arm member attachment position.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

Therefore, in the present invention, a plurality of clothes pole supporting openings are provided in the longitudinal direction, one end of which is located below the one opening of the other end of the arm member pivotally supported on the outer wall of the building. It is intended to achieve the above object by providing a notch for supporting the handrail of the veranda that is connected to this opening.

[Operation] With the simple configuration as described above, by fitting the notch on the lower side of each article drying pole receiving arm member to an arbitrary position of the continuous veranda handrail without requiring special metal fittings,
The clothes pole receiving arm member can be supported.

〔Example〕

 The present invention will be described below based on embodiments.

FIG. 1 shows an overall side view of an embodiment of the clothes-drying rod receiving arm member supporting structure according to the present invention, in which the same (corresponding) constituent elements as those in FIGS. Duplicate description is omitted.

(Structure) In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1A is an embodiment of a clothes rod receiving arm member according to the present invention, which is characterized in that a circular rod-shaped portion 1a on the lower side of an oval hole 2 on the free end side is cut. A notch 10 is provided. The notch 10 is sized so that the cross section of the continuous handrail 5a fixed to the top of each veranda handrail column 5 can pass through. By fitting the handrail 5a to the notch 10, each arm member 1 when using the clothes pole is made to function as a simple support beam at both ends. For this reason, it is not necessary to prepare a special metal fitting 9 with a hook or the like as in the conventional example shown in FIG. Further, since the handrails 5a are continuous, there is no restriction on the lateral wall mounting position of each arm member 1.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 12 locks the lower portion of each arm fitting 1A when it is stowed when not in use, when it is hung vertically along the outer wall 3 as shown in FIG. 3 (b). It is a locking metal fitting for. Further, 13 is a sliding glass door, 14 is an eaves roof, and 15 is a waist wall of the veranda.

The material, cross-sectional shape, shape of the oblong hole 2 for supporting the article pole, and the mounting bracket 7 of each arm fitting 1, 1A in the above embodiment
The configuration and the like are not limited to the illustrated examples, and it goes without saying that various modifications may be made.

[Effect of device]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the arm member for supporting this type of clothesline can be configured to support the free end portion without using a special member at the time of use, strength / cost of the arm member. Above all, it is extremely advantageous, and the mounting position is not restricted. In addition, since the clothes rod receiving arm member is provided with an opening for supporting the clothes rod, the clothes rod receiving arm member can be folded when not in use to have an obstructive dipper, so that the area of the balcony can be effectively used. .
