JPH0748913A - Post cover mounting structure - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To fixedly and easily mount a post cover whose style of packing is minimized. CONSTITUTION:A clamp 2, which is formed in a U-shape by bending a nail, is swingably retained with a retaining hole 1H drilled in an end face of an outside wall panel 1, which adjoins each other in array and sandwiches a post. A receiving metal fitting 4 is installed, which is inserted between the adjacent outer wall panels and used to hook and retain the clamp 2 on the rear side of a post cover 3 which covers the outer surface of the post. This construction makes it possible to mount the post cover easily without using a small machine screw, and what is more, to constitute the cover in a low bulk and reduce the size of packing as well.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pillar cover mounting structure in which a pillar cover is easily attached to outer wall panels which are arranged adjacent to each other with a pillar interposed therebetween.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a method of building a desired outer wall panel between columns arranged at required intervals, a column cover is formed so as to cover the outer surface of the column in order to protect the outer surface of the column and to finish the appearance beautifully. I am wearing. To install this pillar cover, screw the end edge plate of the pillar cover to the frame of the outer wall panel, or punch elastic stoppers on both sides of the rear surface of the pillar cover so that they project outward. The locking pieces at both ends of the tool are inserted and locked in the holes of the outer wall panel to be fixed.

[0003]

Therefore, in the method of fixing the column cover with screws, etc., the screw head is placed in the joint formed between the outer wall panel and the column cover, and the screw head is covered with a coating or the like. In the latter case, it is necessary to insert an elastic locking tool drilled on the back side of the pillar cover in a narrow area and lock it in the hole drilled in the outer wall panel by doing a fitting search. It is difficult, and there is a defect that the packing size of the pillar cover is large because the locking tool projects from the pillar cover.

It is an object of the present invention to easily mount and fix a pillar cover having a small packing shape.

[0005]

The present invention has been made to achieve the above object, and is bent into a U-shape with a wire in a locking hole formed in a side end surface of an outer wall panel adjacently arranged with a column therebetween. The formed stopper is swingably locked, and is inserted between adjacent outer wall panels, and a receiving bracket for hooking and locking the stopper is provided on the back surface of a pillar cover that covers the outer surface of the pillar. And

[0006]

[Function] Attaching hook-shaped brackets to the back of the pillar cover,
Both ends of a U-shaped bent metal fitting are fitted and locked with a wire into locking holes that are respectively formed in the side end surfaces of the outer wall panels that are arranged adjacent to each other with the pillar interposed therebetween. Then, the engaging portion of this stopper with the pillar cover is made to project a little from the outer wall panel surface, and after hooking the receiving metal of the pillar cover on this, slide it downward to engage with the hole of the outer wall panel of the stopper. Since both ends of the pillar cover are pivoted about the shaft and the pillar cover is set in the proper position and mounted, the pillar cover can be easily attached.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The mounting structure of a pillar cover of the present invention will be described below with reference to the illustrated embodiments. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes an outer wall panel which is arranged by sandwiching a pillar, and this outer wall panel 1 has desired structures and characteristics and at least has locking holes 1H, 1H as shown in a frame of an inner surface facing the pillar. To do. The locking holes 1H are formed in the upper and lower end portions of the outer wall panel 1 in the vertical direction or at a plurality of predetermined positions. Position.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a locking tool which is fitted and locked in the locking hole 1H of the outer wall panel 1, and the locking tool 2 is bent in a U shape with a wire. The both end portions are directed toward the outer side, and are arranged on the same straight line to form engaging piece shaft portions 21 and 21 so that they can be fitted and locked in the locking holes 1H of the outer wall panels that are opposed and adjacent to each other. When the engaging piece shaft portion 21 is fitted into the engaging hole 1H, the engaging portion 22 has a width smaller than that between the adjacent outer wall panels, and the protruding length from the engaging piece shaft portion is the outer wall panel surface. Properly set so that it projects slightly more.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a pillar cover, which can be made of various materials, but is preferably made of the same material as the exterior material of the outer wall panel so as not to impair the exterior design of the building. The pillar cover 3 is inserted between the outer wall panels facing each other, and the width and length of the pillar cover 3 are determined so as to cover the outer surface side of the pillar, and the bracket 4 is integrally provided on the back surface thereof.

The receiving bracket 4 has a hook shape so that the locking portion 22 of the locking tool 2 can be easily inserted into the gap between the rear surface of the column cover and the receiving bracket, but it cannot be loosely pulled out. Moreover, when the locking device is in the predetermined regular position,
The mounting position of the pillar cover is also determined so as to be fixed at a regular position, and the receiving metal fitting is provided opposite to the pillar cover 3 for each locking tool.

Therefore, in order to attach the pillar cover 3 constructed as described above, first, the engaging piece shaft portions 21 and 21 of the engaging member 2 are fitted and locked in the locking holes 1H and 1H between the outer wall panels, and then, The locking portion 22 is made to project from the outer surface of the outer wall panel, that is, substantially horizontal as shown in FIG.

Next, the pillar cover 3 is attached to the locking portion 22.
After hooking the receiving bracket 4 of the column cover 3 as shown in FIG.
When is slid downward, the locking tool 2 swings around the engaging piece shaft portion, and the pillar cover 3 is placed flush with the outer wall panel and at a predetermined position.

[0013]

According to the mounting structure of the pillar cover of the present invention, a stopper fitting bent in a U shape with a wire is swingably locked in a locking hole formed in a side end surface of an outer wall panel which is arranged adjacently with a pillar interposed therebetween. In addition, since it is inserted between adjacent outer wall panels and the back cover of the column cover that covers the outer surface of the column is provided with a receiving metal fitting that hooks and locks the above-mentioned stop metal, the mounting of the column cover is easy without using screws or the like. In addition, there is an advantage that the pillar cover can be configured to be bulky and the packing shape can be reduced.
