Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an aggregate connector for connecting other members to a C-shaped steel channel member used as aggregate for greenhouses and the like.

Channel members are widely used as aggregates constituting peaks or other parts of greenhouses, etc. When connecting other aggregates, parts, etc. to this channel member, the following method has conventionally been used.

That is, the first method is to weld another member 2 directly to the channel member 1 as shown in Fig. 1, but this method requires the preparation of a welding device and is labor intensive. It has the disadvantage of being very complicated.

The second method is to fasten another member 2 directly to the channel member 1 with screws 3 as shown in Fig. 2, but in this method, each part of the channel member 1 to which the member 2 is attached is Hole 4 for screw
shall be formed accordingly.

However, since the locations where the member 2 is attached vary depending on the situation, there is a drawback that the channel member 1 cannot be standardized.

The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a connecting device for aggregates that is extremely easy to connect and that can standardize channel members.

In order to achieve the above object, the aggregate connector according to the present invention is provided with a chevron-shaped member and a plate-like member that face each other across the opening edge of a C-shaped steel channel member, and these chevron-shaped members and plate-like members are is fixed to the channel member by tightening with a screw member, and other members are attached to the aggregate connector either directly or via an auxiliary member attached by the screw member.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9.

As shown in FIG. 3, the aggregate connector in this embodiment includes an angle-shaped member 10, a plate-like member 14, and a screw member 17.
It is composed of. The chevron member 10 is made by bending a rectangular metal plate into a substantially trapezoidal shape to form a top portion 11 and a pair of side portions 12, and a circular through hole 13 is bored in the center of the top portion 11. There is. Further, the plate member 14 is made of a rectangular metal plate with both ends bent to form a pair of locking portions 15, and like the chevron member 10, a circular through hole 16 is bored in the center. ing. The screw member 17 consists of one bolt 18 and two nuts 19, 2.
It consists of 0.

Next, a method for connecting other members to the C-shaped channel member using the aggregate connector configured as described above will be described.

First, the bolt 18 is inserted into the through hole 13 from above the angle-shaped member 10 and fixed with the nut 19. Then, as shown by solid lines in FIG.
2 is inserted into the groove 23 along the longitudinal direction of the opening 22 of the channel member 21, and rotated to the state shown by the chain line.

Next, as shown in FIG.
By inserting the bolt 18 therein, the channel member 21 is formed by the chevron member 10 and the plate member 14.
sandwiching a part of the channel member 2 and the locking part 15
1 and position it. Then, the bolt 18 is further inserted into the through hole 25 of the U-shaped auxiliary member 24 and then tightened with the nut 20. As a result of this tightening, a downward force is applied to the top portion 11 of the chevron member 10, so that both side portions 12 of the chevron member 10 open and come into contact with the corner portions of the channel member 21, as shown in FIG. Therefore, due to the tightening force of the screw member 17 and the elastic force of the chevron-shaped member 10, the channel member 21
and the auxiliary member 24 are firmly fixed.

When the channel member 21 and the auxiliary member 24 are fixed, other members 2 such as supports are connected to the auxiliary member 24.
6 with screws 27, the connection of the other member 26 to the channel member 21 is completed.

In the above embodiment, the angle-shaped member 10 and the bolt 18 are fixed using the nut 19, but the angle-shaped member 10 and the bolt 18 may be formed integrally in advance.

In addition, as a connection method, the U-shaped auxiliary member 24
However, if a trapezoidal auxiliary member 28 is used as shown in FIG.
can be installed diagonally. Also, as shown in FIG. 8, a mounting portion 2 for mounting other members 26 is provided.
9 is integrally formed with the plate member 15, the other member 26 can be removed without using the auxiliary member 24.
connection is possible. Furthermore, if another member 26 is formed with a female thread 30 as shown in FIG. 9, this member 26 can be directly screwed onto the bolt 18.

Since the aggregate connector according to the present invention is constructed as described above, by appropriately attaching the aggregate connector to a desired location in the longitudinal direction of the channel member, other members can be attached to the desired location of the channel member. Can be installed respectively. For this reason, the work is extremely easy as there is no need to perform complicated work such as welding, and there is no need to form through holes for attachment at desired locations on the channel member, which will lead to the standardization of channel members. It has many advantages such as:
