Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a rain gutter hanging fitting.

Conventionally, as shown in Fig. 1, the eaves gutter 1 and the hanging fittings 5' are
A recess 3 is formed by bending downward into a substantially U-shape at both ends of the hanging fitting 5', and a spring 6 is installed in front of the opening surface of the recess 3.
and a rod-shaped retaining rod 7 form a mechanism for preventing the eaves gutter 1 from slipping.

That is, when inserting the square ears 2 into the hanging fittings 5' at both ends of the eaves gutter 1, which has a three-way cross section, the retaining rod 7 is raised upward against the spring force of the spring 6. After inserting the ear part 2 of the eaves gutter 1 into the recess 3 of the hanging fitting 5', release the retaining rod 7 and return it downward. was prevented.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a retaining piece 8 was attached to the lower surface of the central portion of the hanging fitting 5'.

That is, the distal end of the elastic stopper piece 8 is bent slightly downward, and the ear part 2 of the eaves gutter 1 is attached to the hanging fitting 5'.
When inserting into the recess 3, the retaining piece 8 is bent upward and the ear 2 is inserted into the recess 3.

The distal end surface of this anti-slip piece 8 abuts the inner surface of the lug 2 to prevent the lug 2 of the eaves gutter 1 from coming off from the hanging fitting 5'.

However, as mentioned above, both conventional examples have a problem in that the mechanism for preventing slippage is complicated and the cost increases.

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above-mentioned points, and is a rain gutter hanging metal fitting that is easy to insert into a rain gutter, and has a simple and inexpensive mechanism to prevent it from falling off. This is what we provide.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates an eaves gutter with a trigonal cross-sectional shape, and the tip of the eaves gutter 1 has square ears 2 extending in the longitudinal direction.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a hanging metal fitting having a recess 3 formed by a band-shaped plate that is strung between both ears 2 of the eaves gutter 1 and bent downward at both ends into a substantially U-shape. A supporting piece 9 is formed to protrude upward and is supported and fixed to a roof or a raft under the eaves of a house.

Further, the opening surfaces of both recesses 3, 3 of the hanging fitting 5 are facing each other, and as shown in FIG.
An elastic stopper piece 4 is integrally suspended from the lower surface of the holder.

The retaining piece 4 has an arcuate horizontal cross section, and the concave surface 4a of the retaining piece 4 is opposed to the opening surface of the recess 3, as shown in FIG. ing.

Therefore, since the concave surface portion 4a of the anti-slip piece 4 is curved so that the opening surfaces of the concave portion 3 face each other, it is easily bent toward the concave portion 3 and in the direction opposite to the concave portion 3. It has the property of being hard to bend.

Then, the eaves gutter 1 is inserted into a plurality of hanging metal fittings 5 that are appropriately supported and fixed to rafters, etc., and as shown in Figure 5a, one piece of the eaves gutter 1 is slightly bent inward and the ears are attached. Insert the part 2 into the recess 3 while pressing the retaining piece 4.

At this time, since the retaining piece 4 is easily bent toward the recess 3 side, it can be easily inserted as shown in the figure.

Even if the ear part 2 tries to come off from the recess 3, both edges of the retaining piece 4 come into contact with the inner surface of the ear part 2, making it difficult to come off.

As described above, in this invention, both ends of the hanging fitting are bent downward to form inwardly opposing recesses into which the ears of the eaves gutter are inserted, and the front of the opening surface of these recesses is A plate-shaped retaining piece having elasticity on the side is hung from the lower surface of each hanging metal fitting, and the horizontal cross-sectional shape of the retaining piece is formed into an arc shape, and the concave portion of the retaining piece is formed in the above-mentioned recess. Since it is made to face the opening surface, this anti-slip piece is easy to bend toward the opening surface of the recess, and is difficult to bend toward the opposite direction from the opening surface of the recess. It is easy to insert the ears into the recesses of the hanging bracket, and once inserted, the inner surface of the ears abuts against both edges of the retaining piece, making it difficult to remove. Since only one piece is provided, the mechanism has the advantage of being simple and inexpensive.
