Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a handrail post used for handrails installed on balconies, verandas, etc., and particularly relates to a handrail post with excellent waterproof performance.

For handrails installed on balconies, etc.,
As shown in the figure, a handrail 4 or a blind panel 5 is incorporated between the upper chord member 2 and the lower chord member 3 on the upper end surface 1a of the handrail support 1 that is erected at a predetermined interval on the floor surface. After attaching a plurality of sets of baluster units 6 by fixing both ends of the upper chord material 3 of the baluster unit 6 to be formed, the upper chord material 2 of the baluster unit 6 is covered with a capstone 7. However, there have already been proposals for improvements in assembly workability and repair workability. In the case of such a handrail, the ends of the handrail support 1 and the upper chord 2 are fixed without welding or the like in consideration of repairs after construction, so that the upper end surface 1a of the handrail support 1 and the upper chord A gap is likely to be formed at the contact area with the material 2, and the handrail support 1 is usually formed into a tubular shape in consideration of saving materials.
There is a possibility of water leaking inside. Water intrusion into the inside of the handrail post 1 will corrode the handrail post 1 from the inside and cause problems such as shortening the product life.
Especially when it comes to handrails constructed as described above,
It is necessary to prevent water leakage from the upper end surface 1a of the handrail post 1.

The present invention was developed in response to the above-mentioned needs, and an object of the present invention is to provide a handrail support that prevents water from leaking into the interior of the handrail support.

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

In the embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. By fixing both ends to the upper end surface 14a of the handrail column 14 and fixing both ends of the lower chord member 11 in contact with the lower side wall of the handrail column 14, a plurality of sets are connected, and the upper chord member 10 of the handrail unit 13 is connected to the upper chord member 10 of the handrail unit 13. A handrail is formed by elastically covering the cap 15.

The handrail supports 14, which are erected at predetermined intervals on the floor surface, are constructed by inserting a cylindrical reinforcing member 18 into the inside of a support main body 14c, which has a substantially hollow rectangular cross section. A screw pocket 17 is formed in the part to receive a screw 16 for fixing the upper chord member 10 of the baluster unit 13, and the upper end surface of the reinforcing member 18 is formed with a shielding plate 19a and a caulking material 19b, which will be described later. It is located slightly lower than the upper end surface of the support main body 14c so as to be able to accommodate the support pillar main body 14c.

In order to prevent water from entering the handrail post 14, the upper end opening 14b of the handrail post 14 is covered with a waterproof material 19.

The waterproofing material 19 includes a shielding plate 19a and a caulking material 19.
It is composed of b. The shielding plate 19a is a substantially rectangular plate member in a plan view, and its four side edges are placed on the upper end surface of the reinforcing member 18. This shielding plate 19 is
It is arranged at a position slightly lower than the upper end surface 14a of the handrail support 14, and the gaps between the four side edges of the shielding plate 19 and the handrail support 14 are filled with caulking material 19b, and the upper end opening 14b of the handrail support 14 is Completely occluded and shielded.

In the above description, the handrail support according to the present invention has been described in terms of the elongated cap 15 and the baluster unit 13.
Although the case where it is used for a handrail formed by covering the top with a crown is shown, it can also be used for various other handrails such as a handrail formed by connecting the Kasagi 15 with a Kasagi bracket 21, as shown in FIG. Can be used for handrails.

As explained above, the present invention prevents water from leaking into the handrail post and corrosion of the handrail post by shielding the upper end opening of the handrail post with a waterproof material made of a shielding plate and caulking material. I can do it. In addition, since the handrail post according to the present invention is self-contained, the joint structure between the upper chord of the handrail unit and the upper end surface of the handrail post can be determined without considering waterproofness, and the structure of the handrail can be simplified. In addition, it can be used on currently installed handrails without changing the handrail unit.
Versatility can be improved.

Furthermore, the waterproof effect can be achieved by simply placing the shielding plate, which is a plate member, on the upper end surface of the reinforcing material, so there is no need to mold the shielding plate into a complicated shape, reducing construction costs. Not only that, but also the construction workability can be improved.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A cylindrical reinforcing material is inserted into the inside of the cylindrical column main body, and the upper end surface of the reinforcing material is located slightly lower than the upper end surface of the column main body, and the upper end of the handrail column is placed on the upper edge of this reinforcing material. A handrail post characterized in that a shielding plate that fits tightly into the opening is placed, and the gap between the shielding plate and the inner wall surface of the pillar body is sealed with a corking wood.
