Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention has a U-shaped joint body 1 that opens upward, and has ears 5 provided on both sides of the eaves gutter 4 on the upper edges thereof. A mating ear portion 2 having a C-shaped cross section and opening toward the
. A horizontal cut 6 is provided at the boundary between the movable fitting ear 2 and the movable fitting ear 3, and a vertical cut 7 continuous to the horizontal cut 6 is provided at the boundary between the rear end of the movable fitting ear 3 and the joint body 1. This relates to the eaves and gutter joints provided.

Eaves gutters are made in two sizes, large and small, depending on the amount of rainfall, and for this reason, the eaves gutter joints that connect these need to be of two sizes, large and small, which complicates production management and makes installation difficult. Sometimes, the dimensions had to be checked every time, which was complicated.

The present invention was devised in view of the above points, and its purpose is to provide an eaves gutter joint that can be used commonly for two types of eaves gutter, large and small. In detail, 1 in the figure is a joint body molded from synthetic resin, which has a U-shaped cross section that opens upward, and has a cross section that opens inward on both upper edges. A C-shaped fitting ear 2.2 is integrally formed.

When the eaves gutter 4 having a U-shaped cross section is connected, the ears 5 formed by bulging out over the entire length of the eaves gutter 4 are fitted into the fitting ears 2. Below one of the fitting ears 2, 2 is a movable fitting ear 3 having a C-shaped cross section and opening inward at both ends of the joint body 1.
is formed integrally with the joint body 1.

This movable fitting ear 3 is separated from the fitting ear 2 above by a horizontal cut 6, and also at the rear end, the boundary is separated from the joint body 1 by a vertical cut 7. separated.

The horizontal cut 6 and the vertical cut 7 are continuous, and only the lower edge of the movable fitting ear 3 is continuous with the joint body 1. Therefore, the movable fitting ear 3 is continuous with the joint body 1. The movable fitting ear 3 opens outward using the spring properties of the synthetic resin in a state independent of the upper fitting ear 2 as a fulcrum. At times, the locking piece 8 extending from the upper edge of the movable fitting ear 3 locks on the lower edge of the fitting ear 2 to prevent it from opening further outward.

In other words, if the eaves gutter 4 is large, the upper edges 6 on both sides of the eaves gutter 4 and the ears 5
, 5 are fitted into the fitting ears 2, 2 to connect the eaves gutter 4 and the joint body 1. At this time, as shown in FIG. It does not open and prevent the engagement of the ear part 5 and the fitting ear part 2, and when the eaves gutter 4 is small, the negative ear part 5 is connected to the fitting ear part 2, and the other ear part is connected to the fitting ear part 2. 5 is fitted into the movable fitting ear portion 3 to connect the joint body 1 and the eaves gutter 4.

In the illustrated example, the vertical cut 7 is cut further below the boundary between the rear end of the movable fitting ear 3 and the joint body 1;
This is to further increase the flexibility of the movable fitting ear 3, and even if only the lower edge of the movable fitting ear 3 is made of soft synthetic resin, the movable fitting The movement of the ear part 3 becomes smooth.

In addition, the material may be a vinyl chloride steel plate, a copper plate, an aluminum plate, or the like.

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, it is possible to connect eaves gutter of two sizes, large and small, to one eave gutter joint, and it is possible to connect two types of eave gutter joints, large and small, according to regions with different rainfall amounts. There is no need for production, and a single product can be used, which has the advantage of reducing manufacturing costs and eliminating mix-ups during shipping and construction.
