Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a traveling vehicle for hanging curtains, particularly so-called accordion curtains (hereinafter simply referred to as traveling vehicle).

Conventionally, in this traveling vehicle, as shown in FIG.
It has a structure in which it is rotatably supported by pins 3 and 3' facing each other in the axial direction, and has a vertical section in which horizontal parts 5b and 5b' extend from both sides at the bottom of a vertical part 5a. Insert the rail 5 from its end in the direction of the arrow in the figure into the rail 5, which has an inverted letter shape (in the figure, the longitudinal section has a single letter shape with horizontal sections 5c and 5C' also provided at the top of the vertical section 5a), and insert a pair of rollers into the rail 5. 1
．． Each opposing surface 1a, la' (symbol la' is not shown) and each circumferential surface 1b, lb' of the vertical part 5
The horizontal parts 5b, 5 are suspended on the rail 5 and placed on both sides of the horizontal parts 5b, 5b' and on the upper surface of the horizontal parts 5b, 5b', respectively.
It is now possible to run on b'.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a curtain fixing fitting attached to the support frame 2 via a pin 7, and is for connecting to a predetermined upper part of an accordion curtain, for example.

When installing a curtain from one wall of a room to the opposite wall using the running cars and rail 5, after fixing a predetermined part of the curtain to each metal fitting 6 of a plurality of running cars, These traveling vehicles are inserted and mounted on the rail 5, and then both ends of the rail 5 are fixed to the ceiling of a room or the like.

Therefore, when it becomes necessary to replace or repair the curtains, repair the traveling vehicles, etc., it is necessary to remove the rail 5 from the ceiling etc. and then pull out each traveling vehicle from the rail 5.
The problem was that it was an extremely large-scale work.

The present invention was developed in view of this problem, in which each roller of a pair of rollers is supported by a vertical plate, the lower portions of these vertical plates are connected by a horizontal plate, and at least one of the vertical plates and the horizontal plate is connected. To provide a traveling vehicle for hanging curtains, which is configured to be rotatably connected with a hinge and fixed vertically so that it can be attached to and detached from the rail while the rail is attached to the ceiling, etc. It is.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings from FIG. 2 onwards.

In these figures, the same elements as those shown in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals.

2 and 3 show a first embodiment of the present invention, in which numerals 9 and 9' denote vertical plates that rotatably support a pair of rollers 1 and 1', respectively; .9'
are configured such that they can be separated from each other.

That is, each lower end of the vertical plates 9, 9' has a hinge mechanism 1 at both ends of the horizontal plate 10, which together with the vertical plates 9, 9' constitute a support frame for the pair of rollers 1, 1'.
1.11'.

More specifically, the lower end of the vertical plate 9 (the same applies to 9') and the both ends of the horizontal plate 10 have winding parts 9a, 9a, 9 connected by hinge connecting pins 13.
a/, 9a' and 10avlOa' are formed, respectively.

Further, each of the front and rear ends of the horizontal plate 10 (assuming the running direction of the vehicle is the front-back direction) has a rising edge 10b.
, 10b' are formed, and further rising edges 10b, 10b are formed.
At each side end of ', there are stoppers, i.e., inner protrusions 10c, IOC' and outer protrusions 10d, 10d', which protrude in the direction of the vertical plate 9 (the same applies to 9').
Therefore, the inner overhang 10c, IOC' and the outer overhang 10
Recesses 10e and 10e' are formed between the lower portions of the vertical plate 9, and when the vertical plate 9 is in the upright position shown by the solid line in FIG. ' can be engaged with to maintain its upright state.

Note that 10f is a hole through which the pin 7 is inserted, which is bored in the center of the horizontal plate 10.

In order to mount the traveling vehicle with the vertical plates 9 and 9' in the upright position as shown in Fig. 2 to the rail 5 fixed to the ceiling etc., first, either or both of the vertical plates 9 and 9' One side opens in a direction away from the other vertical plates 9', 9, as shown by the dashed line in FIG.

In this case, the vertical plate 9.9' is released and opened from the outer extensions 10d, 10d' due to the elastic deformation of the horizontal plate 10 side end.

Thus, the distance S is the horizontal portion 5b of the rail 5. 5b', fit the running vehicle from below toward the rail 5, and then insert the open vertical plate 9.9.
'Push (both or either) in a direction close to each other.

At that time, the lower part of the vertical plate 9.9' elastically deforms the side end of the horizontal plate 10 again, and the outer protrusion 1
0d is pushed out and engaged with the recesses 1ee and 10e', and is again in the upright state shown by the solid line in FIG.

Also, in this case, since the lower part of the vertical plate 9,9' is in contact with the inner protruding part Inc, 10C' of the horizontal plate 10, the pair of rollers 1, 1' are inclined inward, and the vertical part of the rail 5 It never touches 5a.

In this way, the traveling vehicle is attached to the rails 5.

The vehicle mounted on the rail 5 in this manner can be removed from the rail 5 by simply opening both or one of the vertical plates 9, 9' as in the case of starting the mounting described above.

Note that the implementation of the present invention is not limited to what has been described above, and various modifications are possible.

For example, (a) the support frames supporting the pair of rollers 1, 1' may be constructed so that only one support frame can be separated from the other support frame.

That is, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the vertical plate 9 is connected to one side end of the horizontal plate 10 via a hinge structure, and the other side end and the vertical plate 9' are connected as follows. For example, it can be integrally formed as an L-shaped member.

(b) In the case of a vehicle that employs a hinge mechanism in the support frame, the vertical and horizontal plates may not be formed with winding portions as described above, but may be connected by separately prepared hinges.

As described above, in the present invention, each roller of a pair of rollers is supported by a vertical plate, the lower parts of these vertical plates are connected by a horizontal plate, and at least one of the vertical plates and the horizontal plate is rotatably connected with a hinge. Moreover, since it is configured so that it can be fixed vertically, it is possible to provide a traveling vehicle that can be extremely easily attached to and detached from a rail fixed to a ceiling or the like without removing the rail. Repair work for cars, rails, etc. can be done very easily.
