However, since the former uses the separate decorative cover 13, the number of parts is increased, and the decorative cover is attached to the eaves gutter A '. There is a need to provide 13 mounting means, which complicates the overall configuration, and because of the complexity of the mounting work, there is a possibility that the decorative cover 13 may be inadvertently detached from the eaves gutter A '. It was.

On the other hand, the latter one has a disadvantage that the work of attaching the curved locking piece 14 to the eaves gutter A 'is very troublesome, and thus the workability is lacking. Since it is difficult to integrally form the gutter hanging body 9a with the gutter hanging tool main body 9a, it has to be manufactured as a separate object, and there is a problem that the number of parts increases.

Moreover, as in the latter case, the eaves gutter A '
It is extremely uneconomical to manufacture individually the gutter hanging tools B 'of a special shape corresponding to the shape of the above, and the management thereof is also complicated.

If a gutter hanging tool having a holding portion can be applied, it can be effectively used, which is very convenient.

Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and provides an eaves gutter having a good external appearance that can be reliably supported by existing gutter hanging tools generally used. The task is to

[0009]

That is, the means adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems is that the front wall 3 is attached to the end of the bottom wall 2.
In the eaves gutter provided with the rear wall 4, at least the front end of the front wall 3 is formed to be inclined upward toward the rear, and the inner wall of the intermediate wall 6 hanging at the front end has a gutter hanging tool. At one end of the main body 9 is formed a concave groove 7 into which an upwardly engaging engagement piece 10 can be engaged, and at the end of the rear wall 4 there is provided an ear provided at the other end of the gutter hanging tool main body 9. The holding portion 11 forms the ear portion 5 that can be held , and the intermediate wall 6 is extended.
It is at a point fixed to the inner surface of the bottom wall 2 .

Therefore, the eaves gutter characterized by the above-mentioned structure is configured such that the concave groove 7 provided on the inner surface of the intermediate wall 6 is engaged with the engagement piece 10 of the gutter hanging tool, and the rear side of the eaves gutter is directed upward. If you press
The ear part 5 is held and supported by the ear holding part 11 of the gutter hanging tool.
