Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attach a cord to an attachment bar at an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction of the attachment bar easily by a method wherein a 1st half unit and a 2nd half unit which surround the attachment bar is linked with each other with their one side edges so as to be opened and closed freely and linked with each other with their other side edges so as to be separated from each other freely and a cord insertion part is formed on one of the half units. SOLUTION: A cord fixing fitting 1 has a rear side 1st half unit 3 and a front side 2nd half unit 4 which surround an attachment bar 25 and, after a cord 26 is inserted into a cord insertion part 17, a cord tightening band 27 is inserted through one insertion hole 18 from the outside and is made to cross over the cord 2, 6 and exposed outside through the other insertion hole 18 and fitted to a cylindrical part 28 to be fixed to the cord insertion part 17. After the 1st half unit 3 is put on the attachment bar 25, a retainer 14 is retained with the upper edge of a retaining hole 8 by inserting the retainer 14 into the retaining hole 8 while the 2nd half unit 4 is put on the attachment bar 25 and screws 20 are screwed into screw holes 10 through screw insertion holes 16. As a result, the cord can be attached easily to the attachment bar 25 at an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction of the attachment bar 25.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the first or second aspect of the invention, an engagement hole is formed in either one end of the first half body or one end of the second half body, and the engagement hole is formed in the other end. And an engaging piece that is engaged with the edge of the engaging hole.

[0005]

The present invention has the following functions. According to the invention of claim 1, the cord can be easily attached at an arbitrary position along the longitudinal direction of the attached bar. According to the invention of claim 2, the cord can be easily fixed to the cord insertion portion by the cord fastening band using the insertion hole. According to the invention of claim 3, the first half body and the second half body can be opened and closed by an extremely simple structure.

[0006]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In this description, the front means the right side in FIG. 1, the rear means the left side in FIG. 1, the left means the front side in FIG. 1, and the right means the back side. The cord fixture 1 is a first rear side that encloses a mounted bar 25 having a rectangular cross section that is long in the left-right direction.
It has a half 3 and a second front half 4.

The first half body 3 has a body 6 having an L-shaped cross section, which comes into contact with the rear surface and the lower surface of the mounted bar 25, and the body 6.
A projecting wall 7 having an engaging hole 8 connected to the upper end of the main body 6 and a hanging wall 9 having a screw hole 10 having an axial center in the front-rear direction, connected to the lower end of the main body 6. There is.

The second half body 4 has a main body 13 having a cord insertion portion 17, which will be described later, which is in contact with the front surface and the upper surface of the attached bar 25, and an engagement hole continuously provided at the rear end of the main body 13. 8, an engaging piece 14 having an L-shaped cross section, and a screw insertion hole 16 which is continuously provided at the lower end of the main body 13 and whose axial center is directed in the front-rear direction.
And a hanging wall 15 having. A cord insertion portion 17 is formed on the front side of the main body 13 so as to bulge in the direction away from the attached bar 25, that is, on the front side. A pair of cord tightening bands 27 are inserted into the cord insertion portion 17. An insertion hole 18 is formed.

[0009]

Method of Using the Embodiment of the Invention Next, the method of operation of the embodiment of the invention will be described. First, the cord 26 is fixed to the cord insertion portion 17 by a known cord tightening band 27. That is, after fitting the cord 26 into the cord insertion portion 17,
The cord tightening band 27 is passed through one of the insertion holes 18 from the outside and hung on the cord 26, and then exposed from the other insertion hole 18 to the outside and fitted into the tubular portion 28 provided in the cord tightening band 27. As a result, the cord 26 is fixed to the cord insertion portion 17. Since a large number of small saw-tooth protrusions (not shown) are formed on the inner surface of the tubular portion 28, once the cord tightening band 27 is inserted into the tubular portion 28, a pulling force equal to or larger than the set value is obtained. Cord tightening band 27
The cord tightening band 27 does not come off from the tubular portion 28 unless it is added. Then, the first half 3 is applied to the attached bar 25. After that, the second half body 4 is applied to the attached bar 25 while fitting the engagement piece 14 of the second half body 4 into the engagement hole 8. In this state, the engagement piece 14 fitted in the engagement hole 8 is
Engage the upper edge of the. After that, the screw 20 is screwed into the screw hole 10 through the screw insertion hole 16. As is clear from this description, by fitting the engagement piece 14 into the engagement hole 8, the first half body 3 and the second half body 4 are openably and closably connected. Further, the screw 20 and the screw hole 10
Wall 9 having a wall and a wall 1 having a screw insertion hole 16
5, the connecting device referred to in the claims is constituted. In this example, the cord 26 is fixed to the cord insertion portion 17 of the second half body 4 before being attached to the attached bar 25, but the second half body 4 attached to the attached bar 25 is fixed. Also, the cord 26 can be easily fixed.

The cord 2 shown in FIG.
6 shows an example in which 6 is attached to a reinforcing lateral member extending in the width direction (the left-right direction in FIG. 3) of the frame 30 of the chain conveyor 29. That is, the reinforcing horizontal member is the attached bar 25.

[0011]

[Modifications and the like] Modifications and the like will be described below. (1) The sectional shape of the attached bar 25 is arbitrary. In addition,
The main body 6 of the first half body 3 along the outer shape of the mounted bar 25
It goes without saying that the shape of the main body 13 of the second half body 4 is determined. (2) The first half 3 and the second half 4 may be connected to each other by a hinge so that they can be opened and closed. (3) The connecting tool for connecting the first half body 3 and the second half body 4 is not limited to that of the embodiment, but may be any, for example,
A connector having a protrusion and an elastic catcher having a recess into which the protrusion fits, a connector having a magnet and a receiving piece attracted by the magnet may be used. (4) The attached bar 25 is not limited to the reinforcing cross member extending in the width direction of the frame 30 of the chain conveyor 29. Further, the attached bar 25 is not limited to the one in which the longitudinal direction is directed in the left-right direction, and the attached bar 25 may be oriented in any longitudinal direction. (5) The number of the insertion holes 18 is arbitrary. (6) It is sufficient that there is at least one cord insertion portion 17.
In addition, at least one of the first half 3 and the second half 4 has 1
I need only one. In other words, the first half 3 and the second half 4
The cord insertion portion 17 may be formed in each of them.

[0012]

The present invention has the following effects due to the above-described structure. According to the invention of claim 1, the cord can be easily attached at an arbitrary position along the longitudinal direction of the attached bar. According to the invention of claim 2, the cord can be easily fixed to the cord insertion portion by the cord fastening band using the insertion hole. According to the invention of claim 3, the first half body and the second half body can be opened and closed by an extremely simple structure.
