Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to an installation stand for installing a clothes dryer.
This is an installation stand for installing a dryer above a washing machine to make effective use of space, and the width can be adjusted in stages to accommodate all washing machines with different widths. It provides:

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a support column having a substantially rectangular cross-sectional shape in the horizontal direction, and is provided in pairs on the left and right sides, and leg rubbers 2 and adjustment legs 3 are attached to the lower part.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a frame fixed to the column 1, and there are a pair of left and right frames, and the frame 4 includes a first slide member 5 and a second slide member 6 provided so as to be able to slide in the width direction. A rear slide plate A consisting of the following is fixed.

Reference numeral B designates a front slide plate having a first slide member 7 and a second slide member 8 constructed in the same manner as the slide members 5 and 6.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a corner cap provided at a portion of the front corner of the first and second slide members 7 and 8.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a reinforcing member, which is attached by making two rod-like members into a substantially X shape and connecting the central parts thereof with screws so as to be rotatable, and fixing the ends to the support column 1.

This reinforcing member 10 resists the change in the width direction by approximately
This can be done by changing the angle of the shaped part.

Next, the specific structure of the rear and front slide plates A and B will be explained.

Here, the first slide member 7 and the second slide member 7 of the front slide plate B are
Since the coupling structure with the slide member 8 is the same as that of the first slide member 5 and the second slide member 6 of the rear slide plate A, only the coupling structure of the former will be explained.

The first and second slide members 7 and 8 have a plurality of mounting holes 7a and 8a respectively formed at appropriate intervals in the width direction of the installation base at the sliding portions between them.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a plate-shaped nut, which is made of a substantially rectangular plate-shaped member, and has two screw holes 11a formed at both ends thereof, and a positioning protrusion 11 between the screw holes 11a.
b is formed.

12 is the L mounting hole 7a, 8 of the second slide plate 7, 8
Two bolts are provided, which pass through a and are fixedly tightened by being screwed into the screw holes 11a of the plate nut 11.

The positioning convex portion 11b fits into another mounting hole 7a.

Here, in order to adjust the width, it is first necessary to set the lengths of the rear and front slide plates A and B so that the washing machine can fit in the space below the installation stand. 2
slidingly moves between the slide plates 5 and 6 and between the first and second slide members 7 and 8.

The bolt 12 may be tightened at a position where the dimensions are approximately determined.

Conventionally common width adjustment structures include fixing nuts by welding to the bolt penetration holes provided on the front and rear slide plates, using crimped nuts, or using the slide plate itself. There is a method of forming a threaded part.

However, when a welding nut or a caulking nut is used, a large number of these nuts are required, which increases the cost and greatly increases the number of work steps.

In addition, if threads are formed on the front and rear slide plates, a large number of threads are required, so there is a problem with the equipment capacity of the tap stand, and in order to maintain the strength of the threads, the slide This makes it impossible to use thin materials for the plates, leading to increased weight and cost.

However, according to the present invention, it is possible to tighten two bolts with one plate nut, and the number of plate nuts used can be reduced, and the wall thickness of the plate nut can be increased to a certain extent. sufficient strength can be obtained, and the tightening force can be sufficiently increased.

Furthermore, the positioning convex part of the plate-shaped nut fits into the mounting hole of the threaded member, so there is no need to adopt a special structure on the slide plate side for positioning, and the structure is streamlined. This allows for accurate width adjustment functions.
