DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement in handrails attached to corridors, landings, stairs and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional handrails generally use a rigid pipe having a flat surface, which is welded to a support member such as a handrail, or processed into a straight pipe and fixed by screws or the like. . Curved handrails used for spiral staircases and the like used bent pipes that were previously bent by a bender or the like.

[0003]

Therefore, the conventional handrail is
Since the pipe must be welded directly to the support member, or the pipe itself must be processed to a certain size and screwed individually, etc., the installation work becomes complicated, and the pipes must be individually designed according to the mounting locations. Work has to be undertaken, and there is a problem of lack of versatility. Also, curved handrails have to be manufactured beforehand in accordance with the location where the handrails are to be provided, which is troublesome and costly.

[0004] It is an object of the present invention to be able to attach to a supporting member such as a handrail easily and at an arbitrary position.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a handrail that can be easily processed into a continuous bent pipe having a desired shape during an attaching operation.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention uses a flexible pipe having a swivel groove formed on the surface as a handrail body, and attaches the handrail body to a support member such as a handrail. Adopts a configuration in which a wire member that can be wound around the turning groove of the handrail body is attached. The flexible, which is formed of an elastic material
A handrail body made of a pipe , an attachment member for attaching the handrail body to a support member such as a handrailer, and a wire member are provided.
The wire member wrapped around the handrail body is used as the mounting member.
A configuration for mounting was adopted.

[0006] The swivel groove of the flexible pipe can be easily wound around the wire member of the mounting member, can be wound at any position, can secure excellent fixing, and can be formed into a bent pipe having a desired shape. It is preferable to form them at small intervals and relatively deep dimensions. The revolving groove may be either a continuous spiral groove or a mutually independent orbiting groove.However, in the case of a handrail on a curved line, a spiral groove is more preferable, because the groove width of the spiral groove becomes abnormally wide when being bent. It is preferable in that it does not become narrow or narrow.

[0007] The mounting member is not particularly limited as long as it has a means for mounting to the support member and can mount the wire member. Various metal wires such as steel and stainless steel are used as the wire members. Flexible pipes of various materials such as stainless steel, steel, steel, plastic, and brass can be used.

If no swirl groove is formed, it is preferable to use a flexible pipe made of an elastic material such as a foam such as urethane foam or rubber. However, in this case, it is desirable that a core material made of aluminum or the like extending in the axial direction be provided at the center.

Needless to say, neither the wire member nor the flexible pipe is particularly limited.

[0010]

According to the present invention , a flexible pipe is used as a handrail body.
Because using, during attached, it is made a curved handrail Easily desired shape by bending the flexible pipe
Wear. Also, when attaching the handrail to a support member such as a handrail, wind the wire member around the turning groove of the handrail body, and fix the mounting member with the wire member attached to the support member such as the handrailer.
Therefore , it can be easily mounted at any position. Also, since the wire member is wound inside the turning groove, there is an advantage that the wire member is very beautiful in appearance, unlike the conventional one, and the hand is not caught. In this regard, even when a flexible pipe made of an elastic material is used for the handrail main body, the same effect is exerted. In particular, the elasticity of the elastic material effectively acts on the role of the turning groove.

[0011]

FIG. 1 is a use state diagram showing one embodiment of a handrail according to the present invention.

1 from the flexible pipe in the [0012] drawings
The handrail body 2 is a turning groove formed on the surface of the handrail body. Reference numeral 3 denotes a steel wire member wound around the turning groove 2 of the handrail main body 1, and is attached to a pair of attachment members 4, 5 as shown in FIG. In particular, in this embodiment, a ring-shaped wire member is used, and is mounted on each of the mounting members 4 and 5 by hooking the locking projections 6 formed in an arrangement corresponding to the turning pitch of the turning groove 2. 7 is a handrail.

[0013] Thus, for example, the case of attaching a curved handrail is first produced a handrail main body 1 continuous subjected to bending in the flexible pipe, then the mounting members 4 and 5
By winding the wire member 3 around the turning groove 2 at a desired position of the handrail main body 1 and fixing the mounting members 4 and 5 to the handrail 7 with screws, mounting can be easily performed.

The handrail according to this embodiment includes a mounting member 4,
Since the handrail 5 is fixed to the handrail 7 with screws, as shown in FIG. 3, the handrail main body can be attached in an inclined manner, and can be suitably applied particularly as a handrail for stairs.

FIG. 4 shows a use state diagram of an embodiment using a flexible pipe made of an elastic material as the handrail main body 8. Particularly, in this embodiment, an aluminum core material 9 extending in the axial direction is disposed at the center portion, and a flexible pipe 10 made of urethane foam material is used at the outer peripheral portion. Therefore, also in this case, if the wire member 3 is wound around a desired portion of the handrail main body 8, the wire member 3 bites into the flexible pipe 10 due to the elasticity of the flexible pipe 10, and the mounting members 4, 5 are screwed into the handrail element 7. If the handrail is fixed, it can be easily attached in the same manner as the handrail of the above embodiment.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.

[0017]

As described above the invention according to the present invention comprises a handrail body formed of a flexible pipe turning groove formed on the surface thereof, a mounting member for mounting the該手sliding body to the support member, such as a baluster, and a wire member, Wrap around the swivel groove of the handrail body
Since it is a handrail with a girder wire member attached to the attachment member, it can be attached to a support member such as a handrailer very easily and at any position, and can be easily processed into a continuous bent pipe of the desired shape at the time of attachment work Can be. Therefore, there is a versatility unlike the prior art, and the work of attaching the handrail is significantly simplified. Also, since the wire member is wound around the turning groove of the handrail main body, the appearance is beautiful, the hand is not caught, and the practicality is extremely large. The effect is particularly large in application to a spiral staircase.
