Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

The present invention relates to a clip for eaves gutter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional clip for eaves gutter is Jikken Sho 61-
No. 35639, and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 1-114736. This eaves gutter clip will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7. The eaves gutter clip 100 is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, a clip board 101 for pressing the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter from below, a clip piece 102 for pressing the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter from above, and a drainer 103 protruding downward from the clip piece 102 are integrated. It was installed in.

The method of using the eaves gutter clip 100 is as follows.
As shown in FIG. 7, the eaves gutter 300 is inserted into the notch 201 provided on the side surface of the water collector 200. After that, the bottom plate end of the eaves trough 300 inserted into the water collector 200 is inserted between the clip board 101 and the clip piece 102, and the eaves trough clip 100 is attached to the end of the eaves trough 300. Install.

Then, the rainwater flowing through the eaves trough 300 flows down to the water collector 200 from the drainage 103 of the eaves trough clip attached to the end of the bottom plate of the eaves trough 300. When used in this manner, the eaves trough 300 repeatedly expands and contracts due to a temperature difference in summer and winter, so that even if the eaves trough 300 moves outward from the through hole of the water collector 200, the drainer 102 remains. The side edge of the cutout 201 of the water collector 200 is caught on the side edge of the water collector 200 so as not to come off.

[0005]

However, when the eaves gutter clip 100 is used as described above, the clip piece 102 is directly exposed to sunlight, and as a result, the temperature of the upper surface of the clip piece 102 rises. As a result, as shown in FIG. 8, the eaves gutter clip 100 is curved upwardly, and the eaves gutter clip 100 is easily separated from the end of the eaves gutter 300, which is the original purpose of the eaves gutter clip. The effect of preventing the eaves gutter 300 from coming off the 200 is lost. Further, there arises a problem that the convex curved portion impedes the flow of rainwater, and rainwater leaks from between the bottom surface of the eaves trough 300 and the peripheral portion of the cutout portion 201 of the water collector 200.

Also, at the time of construction, the end of the eaves trough 300 is cut and inserted into the cutout portion of the water collector 200 at the construction site. When cutting the end of the eaves trough 300, The cut surface of the eaves gutter cannot be cut accurately into a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction, and is usually cut into an oblique plane deviated from the orthogonal plane. Therefore, when the eaves trough clip 100 is attached to the bottom plate end of the eaves trough that is cut on the diagonal surface, as shown in FIG. 9, when the eaves trough expands and contracts due to a temperature difference such as summer and winter,
The peripheral portion of the cutout portion of the water collector 200 is the eaves gutter clip 100.
As a result of pressing one of the edges (X), the edge of the eaves gutter clip 100 is damaged.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a clip for eaves gutter in which the clip piece is difficult to bend even if the eaves gutter expands and contracts due to a temperature difference in summer and winter. Another object of the present invention is to provide an eaves trough clip in which the side edge of the clip piece is not easily damaged even when the eaves trough expands and contracts due to a temperature difference in summer and winter.

[0008]

The present invention is made to achieve the above object, and the invention according to claim 1 is a clip board for pressing the bottom plate end of an eaves gutter from below, In a clip for eaves gutter in which a clip piece that presses the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter from the upper side and a drainer projecting downward from the clip board are integrally provided, the clip piece has an eaves plate that covers the upper side of the clip piece. It is provided integrally.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, a clip board for pressing the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter from below, a clip piece for pressing the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter from above, and a drainer protruding downward from the clip board. In the eaves gutter clip integrally provided with, the clip piece has an upper surface inclined downward as it goes to the tip side, a sharp tip is formed, and a thick portion is provided on both side edges. The left and right sides of each of the thick-walled portions are formed closer to each other toward the tip side to form a pointed tip.

In the present invention, the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter is inserted between the clip board and the clip piece. Therefore, the shape between the clip board and the clip piece may be substantially the same as the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter. However, even if the sunlight is blocked by the eaves plate, the temperature of the upper surface of the clip piece may rise slightly due to the heat of the sunlight, and the clip piece or the clip board may be curved upward in a concave shape. The clip board may be curved in a convex shape slightly below the shape of the bottom plate of the eaves trough so that when it is bent by the heat of sunlight, it has exactly the same shape as the end of the bottom plate. The eaves plate according to the invention of claim 1 covers the upper side of the clip substrate. Therefore, it is preferable that at least this eaves plate has substantially the same size as the clip substrate.

(Operation) The operation will be described while explaining the method of using the eaves gutter clip of the present invention. In the eaves trough clip of the present invention, the eaves trough is inserted into the notch provided on the side surface of the water collector as in the conventional case. Then, the bottom plate end of the eaves trough inserted in the water collector is inserted between the clip board and the clip piece, and the eaves trough clip is attached to the end of the eaves gutter. Then, the rainwater flowing through the eaves trough flows down to the water collector from the drainer of the eaves trough clip attached to the end of the eaves trough.

When used in this manner, the eaves gutter repeatedly expands and contracts due to temperature differences in summer and winter, so that even if the eaves gutter moves outward through the through hole of the water collector, the drainer collects. It is difficult to pull out because it is caught on the side edge of the notch in the water container. According to the first aspect of the invention, since the clip piece is covered with the eaves plate, even if the eaves gutter clip is irradiated with sunlight, the clip piece is not directly irradiated. Therefore, the temperature increase on the upper surface of the clip piece is small, and the clip piece does not curve upward. Therefore, it is difficult for the eaves gutter clip to come off from the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter.
Further, unlike the conventional case, it does not hinder the flow of rainwater, and there is no problem that rainwater leaks from between the bottom of the eaves gutter and the peripheral edge of the cutout of the water collector. It should be noted that the eaves plate that is directly irradiated with sunlight rises in temperature and is deformed, but this eaves does not directly affect the clip pieces.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the eaves gutter repeatedly expands and contracts due to a temperature difference in summer and winter, so that the eaves gutter moves outward through the through hole of the water collector, and the eaves gutter moves in the longitudinal direction. Even if the side edge of the eaves gutter clip attached to the end deviated from the plane orthogonal to the is caught on the peripheral edge of the cutout portion of the water collector, there is a thick portion on this side edge, so this side The edges are not damaged. Moreover, since the thick-walled portion and the clip piece have sharp tips, the resistance of rainwater flowing from the eaves trough to the eaves trough clip is small, and the water smoothly flows into the water collector. Therefore, rainwater flowing through the eaves gutter is not blocked by the thick-walled portion and the clip piece.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described. (Embodiment 1) FIGS. 1 and 2 show one embodiment of the eaves trough clip of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the eaves trough clip, and FIG. 2 is a use state of the eaves trough clip of FIG. FIG.

1 and 2, reference numeral 6 denotes an eaves gutter, and this eaves gutter 6 includes an indoor side wall 61, an outdoor side wall 62, and a bottom plate 6.
3 The bottom plate 63 is slightly convex downward. Reference numeral 1 denotes a polyvinyl chloride resin eaves trough clip, and the eaves trough clip 1 includes a clip substrate 2, a clip piece 3, a drainer 4, and an eaves board 5. The clip board 2 presses the bottom plate end of the eaves trough 6 from the lower side, and is slightly downwardly convex like the bottom plate 63 of the eaves trough 6.

The clip piece 3 presses the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter 6 from above, and is slightly downwardly convex like the bottom plate 63 of the eaves gutter 6. Therefore, a gap 23 having substantially the same shape as the bottom plate 63 of the eaves gutter 6 is formed between the clip board 2 and the clip piece 3. In this embodiment, the clip board 2 and the clip piece 3 are slightly downwardly convex like the bottom plate 63 of the eaves gutter 6, but may be curved further downward.

The drainer 4 is a plate-like member hanging downward from the clip substrate 2. The eaves plate 5 is a plate-like member that is connected to both sides of the clip piece 3 and is convex upward. Therefore, the eaves plate 5 and the clip piece 3 form a tubular body. 7 is a water collector, and this water collector 7 has eaves gutters 6 on both sides.

The eaves trough clip 1 is attached to the eaves trough 6 by inserting it into the gap 23 between the and the clip piece 3. Then, the rainwater flowing through the eaves trough 6 flows into the water collector 7 from the drainer 4 of the eaves trough clip 1 attached to the end of the eaves trough 6.

When used in this manner, the eaves gutter 6 repeatedly expands and contracts due to temperature differences in summer and winter, and even if the eaves gutter 6 moves outward through the through hole of the water collector 7, the water drainer is drained. 4 is caught on the peripheral edge of the cutout portion 71 of the water collector and is difficult to pull out.
Further, even when the eaves gutter clip 1 is exposed to sunlight, the clip piece 3 is covered with the eaves plate 5, so that the sunlight is not directly applied to the clip piece 3. Therefore, the temperature rise on the upper surface of the clip piece 3 is small and the clip piece 3 does not curve upward in a convex shape.

For this reason, the eaves gutter clip 1 is unlikely to come off from the end of the bottom plate of the eaves gutter 6. Further, unlike the conventional case, the flow of rainwater is not obstructed, and the problem that rainwater leaks from between the bottom surface of the eaves gutter 6 and the peripheral edge of the cutout portion of the water collector 7 does not occur. In addition, the temperature of the eaves plate 5 which is directly irradiated with sunlight rises and only the center portion thereof is curved upward in a convex shape, and the clip piece 3 is not deformed.

(Embodiment 2) FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the eaves trough clip of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the eaves trough clip. When Example 2 shown in FIG. 3 is compared with Example 1, the shape of the eaves gutter clip 1a is different. Since the others are the same, only the structure of the eaves gutter clip 1a will be described, and the others will be omitted. Reference numeral 1a is a polyvinyl chloride resin eaves trough clip, and this eaves trough clip 1a comprises a clip substrate 2a, a clip piece 3a, a drainer 4a, and an eaves board 5a. The clip board 2a presses the bottom plate end portion of the eaves gutter from below, and is slightly downwardly convex like the bottom plate of the eaves trough.

The clip piece 3a presses the bottom plate end of the eaves trough from above, and is slightly downwardly convex like the bottom plate of the eaves trough. Therefore, this clip substrate 2
A gap 23a having substantially the same shape as the bottom plate of the eaves gutter is formed between a and the clip piece 3a. The drainer 4a is a plate-like member hanging downward from the clip substrate 2a. Eaves 5a
Is a substantially horizontal plate-like body connected to the center of the clip piece 3a by a connection piece 51a.

Next, since the construction method, usage state and operation of the eaves gutter clip are the same as those of the first embodiment, the description thereof will be omitted. (Embodiment 3) FIGS. 4 and 5 show another embodiment of the clip for eaves gutter of the present invention. FIG. 1 (a) is a perspective view of the clip for eaves gutter, and (b) is A of (a). -A sectional view taken along line A,

The clip board 2b presses the bottom plate 63b end portion of the eaves gutter 6b from the lower side.
It has the same shape as the bottom plate 63b of b, that is, it is substantially horizontal.

The clip piece 3a presses the bottom plate end of the eaves gutter from above, and the bottom surface of the eaves gutter 6b has a bottom plate 63b.
It is almost horizontal as in the above, but the tip 31b is pointed with the upper surface inclined downward as it goes to the water side.
Therefore, a gap 23b having substantially the same shape as the bottom plate 63b of the eaves gutter 6b is provided between the clip board 2b and the clip piece 3b.
Are formed. The drainer 4b is a plate-like member hanging downward from the clip substrate 2b.

The thick portions 8b are provided upright on both sides of the clip piece 3a, and both ends of the thick portions 8b approach toward the water side and the tips 81b are sharpened. Reference numeral 7b denotes a water collector, and the water collector 7b is provided with notches 71b, 71b into which eaves gutters 6b can be inserted on both sides, and a tubular mounting portion 73b for mounting a vertical gutter below.

Next, the construction method, usage state and operation of the eaves gutter clip will be described. Eaves gutter clip 1a
In the same manner as in the conventional case, the end of the eaves gutter 6b is inserted into the water collector 7b through the cutout portion 71b provided on the side surface of the water collector 7b. Next, the bottom plate 63b end portion of the eaves trough 6b inserted into the water collector 7b is inserted between the clip board 2b and the clip piece 3b, and the eaves trough clip 1 is attached to the eaves trough 6b.
b. Then, the rainwater flowing through the eaves trough 6b flows into the water collector 7b from the drain 4b of the eaves trough clip 1b attached to the end of the eaves trough 6b.

At this time, since the upper surface of the clip piece 3b is inclined downward as it goes to the water side and the tip 31b is sharp, when the rainwater flows over the clip piece 3b, the arrow in FIG. As shown in, it smoothly flows into the water collector 7b without resistance. Further, since the thick-walled portions 8b erected on both sides of the clip piece 3b are approached on both sides of the thick-walled portion 8b toward the water side, the tips 81b are sharpened.
As shown by the arrow in FIG. 5 (a), the tip 81 where the rainwater is sharp
It smoothly separates at b and flows into the water collector. Therefore, rainwater flowing through the eaves gutter 6b cannot be stopped.

When used in this manner, the eaves gutter 6b repeatedly expands and contracts due to the temperature difference in summer and winter, and the eaves gutter 6b.
Even if the notch 71b of the water collector 7b moves outward, the water drain 4b is caught on the peripheral edge of the notch 71b of the water collector 7b and is difficult to pull out. Also, when the eaves gutter 6b is cut during construction, if the eaves gutter 6b is cut into an oblique plane that is offset from the plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the eaves gutter 6b, the eaves gutter 6b repeatedly expands and contracts due to temperature differences during summer and winter. Eaves gutter 6b is water collector 7b
