According to the above-described conventional elongated body support, the support body 22 is fixed to the suspension bolts 2 and the lid 23 is closed by the lid engaging part 24. ,
After one of the nuts 21 is screwed into the suspension bolt 2, the lid 23 is swung in the closing direction so that the suspension bolt 2 passes through the locking portion 5 and the end of the lid 23. An operation of disposing the main body 22 and screwing the other nut 21 to the suspension bolt 2 is required, and the operation must be performed while holding the supporting tool by hand, and the operation is likely to be complicated,
For example, there is a problem that it is difficult to work at high places (especially overhead work) and the efficiency is reduced. Furthermore, in order to remove the elongated body supported by the support tool body 22, it is necessary to remove the nut and swing the lid in the opening direction each time. This makes it difficult to perform the work, and there is a risk that the work efficiency of the whole operation of supporting the long body may be reduced.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, portions denoted by the same reference numerals as those of the conventional example indicate the same or corresponding portions.

FIG. 2 shows an air-conditioning pipe 1 which is an example of a long body by using a support fitting R which is an example of a long body support of the present invention.
Is supported by a suspension bolt (an example of a rod-shaped body) 2.

The hanging bolts 2 are fixed in a hanging state from the building, and are not shown in the drawing, but are also installed at a plurality of other locations spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the air-conditioning pipe 1. The air-conditioning pipe 1 is supported by respective support fittings R attached to the respective suspension bolts 2 in the same manner as in the drawing.

The support bracket R will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 1, a support body 3 having a locking portion 5 which can be locked to the hanging bolt 2 and a support portion 4 which can receive and support the air-conditioning pipe 1 to be supported is provided. A main portion of the air conditioning pipe 1 is formed by closing a reception port of the air conditioning pipe 1 to the part 4 and surrounding the air conditioning pipe 1 together with the support part 4. The locking portion 5 and the support portion 4 are integrally formed by bending a metal band. The lid 6 is also formed of a metal band, and its base end is connected to the distal end of the support 4 by a hinge joint 4.
It is swingably mounted via b.

As shown in the drawing, the support portion 4 is formed in a curved shape, and the curved concave portion 4a becomes a storage support space V for the air-conditioning pipe 1. Therefore, the air-conditioning pipe 1 can be received and supported by being positioned in the horizontal position in the curved concave portion 4a.

[0016] As shown in Figs.
The opening is formed in a U-shape in cross section, and is integrally connected to the base end of the support portion 4 in a posture facing the accommodation support space V. When attached to the suspension bolt 2, the "U" shaped opening is oriented downward. A long hole 5a into which the suspension bolt 2 can enter is formed in the upper surface of the locking portion 5. Therefore, the mounting of the support bracket R to the suspension bolt 2 is performed by inserting and receiving the tip of the suspension bolt 2 into the elongated hole 5a. The “U” -shaped concave portion of the locking portion 5 is referred to as a receiving portion 7. The receiving portion 7 has a leaf spring member (an example of a spring member) bent and formed as shown in the drawing.
8 (see FIG. 3), and a sheet metal member 23 having a U-shaped cross section is fitted in the inside thereof, and is fixed (rivet-joined) to one side wall portion of the locking portion 5.

On the other side wall portion of the locking portion 5,
A lid engaging portion 5b for engaging the tip of the lid 6 is formed. By swinging the lid 6 around the hinge joint 4b and engaging the tip of the lid 6 with the lid engaging portion 5b, the receiving port of the air-conditioning pipe 1 to the support 4 can be opened. While being closed, the air-conditioning piping 1 arranged in the accommodation support space V can be surrounded and supported together with the support portion 4. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the lid engaging portion 5b includes a first hole H1 that allows the tip of the lid 6 to be inserted into the receiving portion 7, and a first hole H1. A second hole H2 (smaller than the first hole H1) in which the tip of the cover 6 slidable in the lock direction is slidable in the locking direction, and the cover 6 slid along the second hole H2. Is formed by a pair of lockable third holes H3. The first hole H1 and the second hole H2 are formed as one continuous hole (the hole front shape is a “T” shape). The pair of third holes H3 are formed on both sides of the second hole H2.

On the other hand, the tip of the lid 6 is
As shown in the figure, a wide portion 6a corresponding to the width of the first hole H1 is provided, and a narrow portion 6b corresponding to the width of the second hole H2 is provided on the base end side of the wide portion 6a. At the rear ends of both sides of the wide portion 6a, there are provided projections 6c which can be individually fitted into the pair of third holes H3. A recess 9 is formed in the center of the front end of the wide portion 6a along the outer peripheral surface of the suspension bolt 2. Therefore, in order to support the air-conditioning pipe 1 by the support fittings R attached to the suspension bolts 2, the lid 6 is swung in the closing direction with the air-conditioning pipe 1 placed on the support portion 4. The leading end is inserted into the first hole H1, and when all of the wide portion 6a has passed, the tip is slid downward along the second hole H2 so that the protrusion 6c is fitted into the third hole H3. By doing so, it is possible to support the air-conditioning pipe 1 in a surrounding state.

Referring to the leaf spring member 8, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a first surface portion 8a fixed to one side wall portion of the locking portion 5 and an upper surface portion of the locking portion 5 are provided. And a third surface portion 8c which is disposed in a protruding state in the space where the hanging bolt 2 enters, and is integrally provided. An elongated hole 10 into which the suspension bolt 2 can enter is formed in the second surface portion 8b similarly to the locking portion 5. However, of the peripheral portion of the elongated hole 10, the peripheral portion on the first surface side is formed in a straight line, and is formed in a locking claw portion 11 which can be locked in the screw groove 2 a of the hanging bolt 2. It is. Further, as shown in the drawing, the third surface portion 8c is inclined in the direction in which the suspension bolt 2 enters, and has a cutout 8d that can be externally fitted to the suspension bolt 2 that has entered. A locking claw 11 that can be locked in the thread groove 2a of the suspension bolt 2 is formed on the bottom of the notch 8d by linear processing like the second surface 8b.
Therefore, the both locking claw portions 11 are separately arranged on both sides of the space for entering the hanging bolt 2, respectively, and are formed so as to be individually lockable in the screw grooves 2 a on both sides of the hanging bolt 2. It is. In addition, as the suspension bolts 2 enter the receiving portion 7, the third surface portion 8 c can allow the entrance while elastically deforming, and the suspension bolts 2 entering the receiving portion 7 can be allowed. The two locking claws 11 resist the escape from the receiving portion 7 in the direction of biting into the screw groove 2a, and the escape can be prevented. The locking claw 11 is provided to be inclined so as to follow the spiral shape of the screw 2a. Incidentally, since the third surface portion 8c of the leaf spring member 8 is provided in an inclined state, it becomes possible to apply an urging force to push back the wide portion 6a of the lid portion 6 inserted into the receiving portion 7 while pushing it down. By simply inserting the wide portion 6a into the first hole H1, the urging action of the leaf spring member 8 causes the protrusion 6c to move into the third hole H3.
Can be guided to an engagement lock state in which the lid is engaged, and the lid engagement operation can be speeded up and simplified. Further, by the elastic restoring force of the leaf spring member 8,
The fitting state between the projection 6c and the third hole H3 is maintained, and it is possible to prevent the lid 6 from slipping out of the lid engaging portion 5b. On the other hand, in the engagement locked state of the lid, the third surface portion 8c of the leaf spring member 8 is pressed against the suspension bolt 2 by the wide portion 6a,
By the action of the elastic restoring force of the leaf spring member 8, it is possible to prevent unlocking. As a result, the third surface 8
The engaging claw portion 11c engages with the thread groove 2a of the suspension bolt 2 so that the suspension bolt 2 can be maintained in a state where the suspension bolt 2 does not come off. The wide portion serves as the locking mechanism 12.

The sheet metal member 23 has a U-shaped side formed with a protruding portion 23a which protrudes toward the receiving portion 7 to stably receive the side portion of the suspension bolt 2.
The configuration is such that the mounting posture of the support fitting R with respect to the stabilization can be stabilized. A notch 23b is formed at the upper side of the U-shape to receive the suspension bolt 2. The upper side portion of the sheet metal member 23 is
Of the second surface portion 8b between the locking portion 5 and the second surface portion 8b
, And the elastic deformation of the third surface portion 8c acts more effectively and strongly. On the other hand, the U-shaped lower side portion of the sheet metal member 23 projects on the extension of the suspension bolt 2 so that the suspension bolt 2 does not enter the accommodation support space V of the pipe P. The lower side of this U-shape corresponds to the stopper S. Therefore, if the suspension bolt 2 is pushed in until it comes into contact with the stopper S, it becomes possible to securely lock the support bracket R to the suspension bolt 2 regardless of the mounting operation.

Next, an example of a procedure for supporting the air-conditioning pipe 1 by locking the support fitting R to the suspension bolt 2 will be described. [1] With the lid 6 opened, the oblong holes 5a and 10 The support bracket R is attached so that the hanging bolt 2 enters the notch 23b and the engaging claw 11 is engaged with the screw groove 2a. In addition, the mounting height of the support bracket R with respect to the suspension bolt is adjusted as needed. [2] The air-conditioning pipe 1 is arranged on the support 4. [3] The lid 6 is closed and the locking mechanism 12 is operated. With the above procedure, the air-conditioning pipe 1 can be supported. Of course, it is also possible to adopt a method in which the support fitting R is first attached to the air-conditioning pipe 1 in a surrounding state, and then attached to the suspension bolt 2 in that state.
