Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a ruler used to mark a position at which a fixing tool such as a screw or a nail is to be punched on a wall material fixed to a wall base of a building such as a house.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in a building such as a house, a wall material is fixed by bringing a back surface of the wall material into contact with a horizontal body edge of a wall base and hitting a fixing tool such as a screw or a nail from the wall material surface. The tool is fixed to the horizontal waist edge by penetrating the tool to the horizontal waist edge. However, when the fixing tool is hit from the surface of the wall material, the horizontal waist edge is hidden by the wall material, so that the operator cannot confirm the position of the horizontal waist edge. Therefore, conventionally, various techniques for confirming the position of the lateral trunk edge when hitting the fixture have been considered.

Here, these conventional techniques will be described. In FIG. 5, first, one wall material 50 is temporarily fixed to the horizontal waist edge 30 of the wall base, and a mark 51 of the width center position of each horizontal waist edge 30 is attached to one end of the surface of the wall material 50. Next, these marks 5
The ruler 31 and the like are applied to the mark 1 and the mark 41 attached to one end of the surface of the adjacent wall material 40 which has already been fixed, and a positioning line 52 is drawn. The position of the horizontal trunk edge 30 can be confirmed by these positioning lines 52.

However, in this prior art, one wall material 5
It is necessary to check the position of each horizontal body edge 30 every 0 and to add the mark 51, and the working efficiency is poor. Further, if the operator forgets to put the mark 51, the position of the horizontal trunk 30 cannot be confirmed.

[0005] In view of the above, another conventional technique that does not need to confirm the position of each horizontal trunk edge 30 has been considered. This conventional technique will be described. In FIG. 6, first, a ruler 32 that has previously marked a scale 32 a at a position where the fixture is to be hit is applied to both side edges of the surface of the wall material 50, and a mark 51 is provided in accordance with the scale 32 a. Next, a positioning line 52 passing through the marks 51 on both side ends is drawn by applying black ink or the like. The position of the horizontal trunk edge 30 can be confirmed by these positioning lines 52.

After the operation of drawing the positioning line 52 is completed, the wall member 50 is fixed to the horizontal trunk 30 of the wall base.
In this prior art, as shown in FIG. 7, if the ruler 32 is mistakenly marked up and down with the mark 51, when the wall material 50 is fixed to the horizontal trunk 30 of the wall base, the positioning line 5 is fixed.
2 is different from the height of the locating line 42 of the adjacent wall member 40, and if there is no notice of the difference in the height of the locating line 52, there is a fixing tool which does not penetrate the horizontal trunk 30. become. In this state, the fixing force between the wall member 50 and the lateral trunk edge 30 is weak, and the wall member 50 may be peeled off.

[0007]

In any of the above prior arts, the work of drawing the positioning line 52 is troublesome and troublesome, and the work efficiency is poor. In addition, the positioning line 52
Even if it is closed, further work is required to mark the position on the positioning line 52 where the fastener is to be hit.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a positioning ruler which can quickly and easily mark a position at which a fixture is hit.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above object, a positioning ruler according to the present invention is constructed such that a wall material of a house or the like is hit on a horizontal body edge of a wall foundation by hitting a fixing tool such as a screw or a nail. When fixing, it is a ruler used to mark the position where the fixing tool is hit on the surface of the wall material, and its configuration is a vertical member having a length equal to the height of the wall material, and fixed to the vertical member. It consists of a plurality of crosspieces that are parallel to each other and whose length is equal to the width of the wall material, and each crosspiece is marked with a scale for hitting the fixture,
The distance between the horizontal members is equal to the distance between the horizontal edges of the wall foundation in a building such as a house.

The positioning ruler according to the first aspect of the present invention provides a positioning ruler, which divides each of the cross members by using a line connecting the center of each of the cross members in the longitudinal direction as a dividing line, and divides each of the divided cross members into each of the divided members. You may connect using a connection tool so that rotation is possible centering on a disconnection.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2, the positioning ruler 1 is composed of two vertical members 2 and a plurality of horizontal members 3. The length of each vertical member 2 is equal to the height of the wall member 50, and The materials 3 are parallel to each other and have a length equal to the width of the wall material 50,
The two longitudinal members 2 are fixed at both ends, and a scale 4 at a position where the fixing member is hit is marked. The interval between the lateral members is defined by each lateral edge 30 of the wall foundation in a building such as a house. Is equal to the interval.

The number of the vertical members 2 is preferably two,
One or three or more may be used. The material of the positioning ruler 1 is preferably wood, but may be metal such as stainless steel or synthetic resin such as plastic.

Next, the use of the positioning ruler 1 having the above configuration will be described. In FIG. 2, first, a wall material 50 to be fixed to each horizontal waist edge 30 is temporarily fixed adjacent to the already fixed wall material 40, and the positioning ruler 1 is applied to the surface of the wall material 50. Next, the fixture mark 10 is marked on the surface of the wall material 50 in accordance with the scale 4 at the position where the fixture previously marked on the positioning ruler 1 is hit. When the work of marking the fixing tool mark 10 is completed, the positioning ruler 1 is separated from the surface of the wall material 50, and a fixing tool such as a screw or a nail is hit on the fixing tool mark 10,
The wall material 50 is fixed. Here, the cross member 3 of the positioning ruler 1
Means that the height position of the fixture mark 10 is 3
It is positioned so as to be equal to the height position of 0a.

In the above configuration, the positioning ruler 1 is arranged such that the interval between the cross members 3 is equal to the interval between the horizontal waist edges 30 on the wall foundation,
In addition, since the scale 4 at the position where the fixture is hit is marked on each horizontal member 3, the position of each horizontal trunk 30 can be easily confirmed on the surface of the wall member 50, and the fixture mark 10 can be marked quickly. And the pitch between the fixtures is accurate.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The following description will mainly focus on a portion different from the above-described first embodiment of the present invention, and the same or corresponding portions have the same reference characters allotted. The detailed description is omitted. In FIGS. 3 and 4, the positioning ruler 1 divides each of the cross members 3 by using a line connecting the center of each of the cross members 3 in the longitudinal direction as a dividing line, and separates each of the divided cross members 3 from each other. It is connected using a connecting tool 5 so as to be rotatable around the dividing line.

The connecting member 5 is preferably made of a durable, thin and light material, for example, an adhesive cloth tape or a member in which both ends of a flexible member are fixed to opposing ends of the divided horizontal member 3, and the like. It is better not to use hinges. The reason for this is that hinges are made of metal and the number of cross members 3 is required,
Also, since the hinge is screwed to the cross member 3, the thickness of the cross member 3 due to the necessity of the screw length causes the positioning ruler 1 to be heavy, which makes it inconvenient to carry and work, and that the metal is difficult to carry. This is because the hinge has a disadvantage that the wall material 50 is easily damaged. However, it is preferable that the hinge is most suitable if a device for solving these disadvantages is devised.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the positioning ruler 1 can be folded through the state of a virtual line as shown by the solid line in FIG. It is convenient.

When the positioning ruler 1 is used upside down, the position of each cross member 3 may not indicate the position of each horizontal waist edge 30. Considering such a case,
In order to be able to use even if it is upside down, a separate cross member 3 dedicated to reverse use is separately provided, or the width of each cross member 3 is changed, one edge is dedicated to normal use, the other edge is used reversely Modifications can be made to the above embodiment, such as by making it dedicated.

[0019]

As described above, according to the positioning ruler of the first aspect of the present invention, the scale for hitting the fixing tool is marked on the horizontal member at the height position at the center of the width of each horizontal body edge. As a result, the position of each horizontal trunk edge hidden by the wall material can be easily confirmed on the wall material surface, and the fixing tool mark can be marked quickly and accurately.

According to the positioning ruler of the second aspect of the present invention,
Because it can be folded into two, it takes up little space and is convenient to carry.

In any of the positioning rulers according to the first and second aspects, the positioning ruler is used even if the positioning ruler is turned upside down by increasing the number of cross members or changing the width of each cross member appropriately. be able to.
