Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vertical gutter water collector in which a rectangular gutter main pipe and a vertical gutter pipe are vertically inserted.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional downspout water collector, for example, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-9436, an upper opening (7) has a rectangular shape and a lower discharge port (8) has an upper opening (7). Support ribs (2a, 2b) for mounting and supporting the lower ends of the vertical gutter main pipe (5) and the vertical gutter branch pipe (6) are formed on the inner surface of the water collector body (4) which is formed to be biased to one side. By forming a plurality of receiving steps (3a, 3b) on the supporting ribs for coping with the change of the diameter of the down gutter, it is possible to easily deal with the change of the diameters of the main line of the down gutter and the line of the down gutter. A so-called P-type water collector for downspout is described (see FIGS. 6 and 7). In addition, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-9437 discloses a water collector for a down gutter that can cope with changes in the shapes of the down gutter main pipe and the down gutter branch pipe.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional water collector, unless the water is surely inserted to the depth of the predetermined receiving stage formed over a plurality of stages, the vertical gutter main pipe and the vertical gutter pipe are firmly fixed. There was a problem that it could not be fixed. In particular, if the gutter main pipe or gutter branch pipe is cut shorter than the required length, or if it is cut diagonally, the insertion depth of the gutter main pipe and gutter branch pipe will be shortened. Inevitably, the fixation of the gutter main pipe and the gutter branch pipe will be insufficient. Further, in the case of a specially-shaped gutter having concave grooves formed on both sides of the gutter in the longitudinal direction, it is difficult to apply the conventional water collecting device for the gutter.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and it is an object of the present invention to be applied to a specially shaped vertical gutter in which concave grooves are formed on both sides in the longitudinal direction. It is an object of the present invention to provide a downspout water collector that can fix both downspouts at arbitrary positions regardless of the insertion depth of the pipe and the downspout pipe.

[0005]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a vertical gutter collector in which a drain pipe is formed at the bottom of a main body of the collector having a substantially rectangular upper opening. In the water collector, at least one of the front and rear walls or the left and right side walls of the water collector body is provided at a position facing each other so that a pressing tool for pressing the outer surface of the vertical gutter inserted into the water collector body can be locked. Through holes are provided.

[0006]

In the water collector for a vertical gutter of the present invention, a pressing tool for pressing the outer surface of the vertical gutter inserted into the main body of the water collector is engaged with at least one of the front and rear walls or the left and right side walls of the main body of the water collector. Since the through holes that can be installed so as to be able to be stopped are provided at the positions facing each other, after inserting the vertical gutter main pipe and the vertical gutter branch pipe into the water collector body, push the pressing tool into the through hole to lock it. Then,
The outer surfaces of both vertical gutters are pressed and fixed by the tip of the pressing tool.
