In addition, various changes are possible about the specific size and shape of each part described above, and the present invention is not limited to a specific size and shape.

Next, a description will be given of the connection structure between the plates. First, as shown in FIG. 1, an intermediate plate 3 is overlaid on the base plate 2, and a holding plate 4 is overlaid on the surface of the intermediate plate 3. In this state, the connection pin 19 is inserted into the adjustment guide hole 7a of the base plate 2, the connection hole 14 on the upper side of the intermediate plate 3, and the guide hole 4a on the upper side of the holding plate 4, respectively. 7b, the connection pin 19 is also fitted in the lower connection hole 14 of the intermediate plate 3 and the lower guide hole 4a of the holding plate 4, respectively. Each connecting pin 19, 19
Has a so-called rivet structure in which both end portions are caulked flat, whereby the three plates are connected in a face-to-face contact with each other. However, the intermediate plate 3 is slidably connected to and supported by the base plate 2 within the range of the adjustment guide holes 7a and 7b, and the holding plate 4 is slidably supported by the guide holes 4a and 4a with respect to the intermediate plate 3. And are slidably connected and supported.

Under such a connection state, the free end side of the spring 10 mounted on the base plate 2 is pressed against the relief portion 11 of the intermediate plate 3. The upper connecting pin 1 receives the urging force of the spring 10.
Reference numeral 9 is engaged and held in the uneven portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a of the base plate 2. Incidentally, FIG. 1 shows a state in which the connection pin 19 is engaged and held in the uppermost concave portion of the concave and convex portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a.

The eccentric cam 12 is fitted in the cam hole 13 of the intermediate plate 3. The pedestal portion 12 a of the eccentric cam 12 is sandwiched between the base plate 2 and the holding plate 4. Further, the rotation operation unit 1 of the eccentric cam 12

Furthermore, screws 20 for fixing the body edge are inserted into mounting holes 5 (see FIG. 2) provided on both sides of the base plate 2, and the base plate 2 is secured to the body edge (not shown) by these screws 20. Is to be fixed. In addition, stud fixing screws 21 and 21 are inserted into the mounting holes 6 and 6 at the upper and lower ends of the base plate 2 (see FIG. 2), and the base plate 20 is fixed to a stud not shown by these screws 21 and 21. It has become.

Next, a siding mounting procedure using the siding mounting bracket 1 having the above configuration will be described. First, a required number of siding mounting brackets 1 are attached to the rim and studs that serve as the wall base members of the building so as to be located at the boundaries between the sidings that are stretched up and down, respectively. Each siding mounting bracket 1
In the case of the fixing work of the base plate 2, if the fixing destination is the rim, the screw 20 is tightened through the mounting holes 5 provided on both sides of the base plate 2. This is performed by tightening the screws 21 and 21 through the mounting holes 6 and 6 provided at the upper and lower ends. In addition, each siding mounting bracket 1 is mounted in a state shown in FIG. 1 on a wall base member such as a rim or a stud.

Next, the lower end of the siding stretched at the bottom of the wall surface of the building is fitted into a support fitting (not shown) which is previously positioned and fixed to the wall base member corresponding to its receiving position. The upper end of the siding is pressed against the siding mounting bracket 1. At this time, as shown in FIG. 1, the state of the siding mounting bracket 1 is such that the connection pin 19 is engaged and held at the uppermost stage of the concave and convex portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a, whereby the intermediate plate 3 and the holding plate 4 are held.
Is set at the uppermost position within the range of perforations of the adjustment guide holes 7a and 7b. In this state, since the siding holding portion 17 of the holding plate 4 is retracted upward, there is no interference (collision) with the upper end of the siding.

Then, while the upper end of the siding is pressed against the siding mounting bracket 1 as described above, the upper side of the intermediate plate 3 is moved together with the holding plate 4 against the urging force of the spring 10 in the rightward direction in FIG. To As a result, the upper connecting pin 19 is moved to the uneven portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a.
Therefore, the intermediate plate 3 and the holding plate 4 can slide vertically with respect to the base plate 1. Then, the intermediate plate 3 is slid downward together with the holding plate 4 from this state, and the siding holding portion 17 is fitted to the upper end of the siding. At this time, the engagement position of the connecting pin 19 with the concave / convex portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a is a position two or three steps lower than the uppermost position shown in FIG. 1, and the siding presser 17 is provided at the upper end of the siding. It fits in. This completes the installation of the siding stretched to the bottom of the wall.

Subsequently, the lower end of the siding stretched on the upper side is connected to the siding receiving portion 16 of the holding plate 4.
And the lower end of the fitted siding is received by the siding receiving portion 16. At this time, the joint width of the lower siding stretched first and the upper siding stretched thereafter is deviated from the specified width, or the joint width is not constant in the width direction (left-right direction) of the siding. In this case, the mounting position of the upper siding is adjusted by the following procedure.

First, the joint width of the upper and lower sidings is measured using a ruler or the like, and based on the measurement result, how much the mounting position of the upper siding should be adjusted upward or downward, Of the siding mounting brackets 1 located at the ends, it is grasped which bracket should be adjusted upward or downward and how much should be adjusted, and when this is grasped, the upper siding is once removed. Then, in the siding mounting bracket 1 to be adjusted, the base plate 2
And the mounting position of the holding plate 4 with respect to the intermediate plate 3 is appropriately adjusted.

That is, as for the mounting position of the intermediate plate 3, as described above, with the intermediate plate 3 moved in one direction against the urging force of the spring 10, the connecting pin with respect to the uneven portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7 a is set. Adjustment is made by changing the engagement position of No. 19. Incidentally, in the present embodiment, since the formation pitch of the concave and convex portions 8 in the adjustment guide hole 7a is set to 4 mm, the pitch of the base plate 2 is 4 m.
The mounting position of the intermediate plate 3 can be adjusted stepwise at m pitches. FIG. 5A shows a state in which the engagement position of the connecting pin 19 with the concave and convex portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a is set at the lowermost stage. In this state, compared to the state shown in FIG. Intermediate plate 3 for
The position of the (holding plate 4) is displaced 16 mm downward.

On the other hand, with respect to the mounting position of the holding plate 4, the eccentric cam 12 is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise using a driver or the like. Then, the eccentric cam 12
The mounting position of the holding plate 4 is displaced in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 2, that is, in the up-down direction in accordance with the rotation operation. Incidentally, in this embodiment, since the amount of eccentricity of the eccentric cam 12 is set to 2 mm, the mounting position of the holding plate 4 can be continuously adjusted within a range of up to 4 mm with respect to the intermediate plate 3. FIG. 5B shows that the eccentric cam 12 is
5A shows a state where the holding plate 4 is rotated by 80 °. In this state, the position of the holding plate 4 with respect to the intermediate plate 3 is displaced upward by 4 mm as compared with the state shown in FIG.

Therefore, if the previously grasped adjustment amount is to be adjusted downward by 2 mm, for example, first, the engagement position of the connecting pin 19 with the concave and convex portion 8 of the adjustment guide hole 7a is lowered by one step. As a result, the position of the intermediate plate 3 (holding plate 4) with respect to the base plate 1 is displaced downward by 4 mm in accordance with the pitch at which the uneven portions 8 of the adjustment guide holes 7a are formed. Next, the eccentric cam 12 is rotated 90 ° from this state. Thus, the position of the holding plate 4 with respect to the intermediate plate 3 is displaced upward by 2 mm according to the amount of eccentricity of the eccentric cam 12.

As a result, in the siding mounting bracket 1 to be adjusted, the holding plate 4 is fixed to the base plate 3 fixed to the wall base member (body edge, studs, etc.).
Can be adjusted downward by 2 mm.
In addition, regarding the procedure of adjusting the plate position, the position of the intermediate plate 3 may be adjusted after the position of the holding plate 4 is adjusted, contrary to the case described above. After completing the position adjustment work of the siding mounting bracket 1,
The lower end of the upper siding is fitted into the siding receiving portion 16 of the holding plate 4 again. Thereby, the joints of the upper and lower sidings bordering on the siding mounting bracket 1 can be uniformly finished.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the intermediate plate 2 is attached to the base plate 2 fixed to the building wall member so that the position of the intermediate plate 2 can be adjusted in a stepwise manner. The plates 4 are continuously mounted so as to be adjustable in position, and these are connected to the connecting pins 1.
Since the structure connected by 9 and 19 is adopted, the joint of the siding can be uniformly finished by a very simple adjustment work without removing the siding mounting bracket 1 once mounted.

As a mechanism for adjusting the position of the siding mounting bracket 1, the vertical position of the intermediate plate 3 (holding plate 4) with respect to the base plate 2 is roughly adjusted by engaging and disengaging the connecting pin 19 with the uneven portion 8 of the adjusting guide hole 7a. Possible, and the vertical position of the holding plate 4 with respect to the intermediate plate 3 can be finely adjusted by the rotation of the eccentric cam 12, so that at the actual construction site, the mounting position of the siding is quickly and accurately adjusted by taking advantage of the respective advantages. can do.

In the above embodiment, the base plate 2 is fixed to the wall base member (body edge,
Although the base plate 2 is fixed to the stud, the base plate 2 may be fixed by fixing means other than screws, for example, nailing. Also, base plate 2
Of the pair of adjustment guide holes 7a and 7b formed in the hole, the unevenness portion 8 for position adjustment is formed only in the upper adjustment guide hole 7a, but the unevenness portion 8 is formed with a pair of adjustment guide holes 7a and 7b. 7b may be formed on at least one of them. Further, the siding mounting bracket 1 of the present invention can be suitably used in the case of mounting either vertical siding or horizontal siding.

[0031]

As described above, according to the siding mounting bracket of the present invention, the mounting position of the intermediate plate with respect to the base plate and the holding plate with respect to the intermediate plate while the base plate is fixed to the wall base member of the building. Since the mounting position can be adjusted in a predetermined direction, the joint of the siding can be uniformly finished without the need for complicated work such as the removal of metal fittings as in the related art. Thus, the siding mounting operation can be performed efficiently without impairing the appearance. In addition, the provision of the adjustment mechanism as described above makes it possible to mount the device at a factory, thereby improving work efficiency at a construction site.
