Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a gutter support mounted on an eave or the like, and more specifically, holds a front ear of the gutter at least in front of a gutter support main body that supports a gutter provided with a mounting rod at a base end. The present invention relates to a gutter support having a holding claw piece formed thereon.
[0002]
[Prior art]
FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a conventional gutter support.
[0003]
The rain gutter support 100 includes a gutter support main body 101 that supports the rain gutter T, and a mounting rod 102 that fixes the gutter support T to an eaves or the like.
[0004]
The gutter support main body 101 is appropriately formed in accordance with the shape of the rain gutter T. At least in front of the gutter support main body 101, a strip-shaped plate for holding the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T is provided. Are provided.
[0005]
The holding claws 103 support the rain gutter T on the gutter support body 101 and then bend the front gutter T1 into the inner surface of the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T as shown by the arrow in the figure. The gutter is held to prevent the rain gutter T from coming off.
[0006]
The mounting rod 102 may be any as long as it can fix the gutter support main body 101 to the eaves or the like, and is not limited to its structure or shape.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
FIG. 5 is a partial schematic view showing the longitudinal state of FIG.
[0008]
As described above, there are various types of rain gutters T, and some of them have a recess T2 formed in the inner surface of the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T.
[0009]
When the holding claw 103 is bent and held by the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T, the holding of the rain gutter T can be normally maintained by the holding claw 103.
[0010]
However, since various loads are applied to the rain gutter T under the condition of being exposed to the strong wind, for example, the holding of the holding claw 103 is loosened by each load of the rain gutter T, and the removal of the rain gutter T is sufficient. Had a problem that could not be prevented.
[0011]
An object of the present invention is to provide a rain gutter support that can prevent the rain gutter from coming off from the holding claw pieces even in a strong wind, and can reliably prevent the rain gutter from coming off. .
[0012]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, a gutter support according to claim 1 holds a front ear of the gutter at least in front of a gutter support body that supports a gutter provided with a mounting rod at a base end. In the rain gutter supporting device provided with the holding claws, the engaging claws are formed so as to protrude with the engaging portions, and the engaging portions are bent toward the inner surface of the front ear of the rain gutter to thereby form the engaging portions. A rain gutter support having a structure in which the front ear of the rain gutter is held by being engaged with a recess formed in the front ear of the rain gutter.
[0013]
According to the first aspect of the present invention, the engaging claw is formed with a protruding engagement portion that is engaged with a recess formed in the inner surface of the front gutter of the rain gutter. By bending inward, the engaging portion is engaged with a recess formed in the front ear of the rain gutter, and the front ear of the rain gutter can be held.
[0014]
Therefore, even in a strong wind, the engaging portion of the holding claws does not come off from the recess of the rain gutter T, and the rain gutter can be reliably prevented from coming off.
[0015]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, a gutter support according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0016]
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a gutter support according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a partial schematic view showing a longitudinal section of FIG.
[0017]
The gutter support A can attach a gutter T having a recess T2 to at least the inner surface of the front ear T1. And a mounting rod 2 fixed to the mounting rod.
[0018]
The gutter support main body 1 is appropriately formed in accordance with the shape of the rain gutter T. At least in front of the gutter support main body 1, a strip-shaped plate for holding the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T is provided. Are provided.
[0019]
An engaging portion 31 is formed on the holding claw piece 3 so as to protrude and engage with a concave portion T2 formed on the inner surface of the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T. In this embodiment, the engaging portion 31 is formed in a strip shape. The engaging portion 31 is formed by folding an appropriate portion of the holding claw piece 3 inward.
[0020]
According to the holding claw piece 3 from which such an engaging portion 31 is formed in a protruding manner, after supporting the rain gutter T on the gutter support main body 1, as shown by an arrow in the figure, this holding claw piece 3 is attached. By bending the rain gutter T toward the inner surface side of the front ear T1, the front ear T1 is held, and the engaging portion 31 formed on the holding claw piece 3 is formed on the inner surface of the front ear T1 of the rain gutter T. In the recess T2.
[0021]
Therefore, even if the holding claws 3 are slightly loosened due to wind and rain, the engaging portion 31 does not come off from the recess T2 of the rain gutter T, and the rain gutter T can be reliably prevented from coming off.
[0022]
The mounting rod 2 may be any as long as it can fix the gutter support main body 1 to an eave or the like, and is not limited to the structure and the shape like the gutter support main body 1.
[0023]
FIGS. 3A to 3C are perspective views showing another embodiment of the holding claw piece provided with the engaging portion according to the present invention.
[0024]
As described above, there are various types of rain gutters T, and various types of recesses T2 formed on the inner surface of the front ear T1.
[0025]
FIG. 3 illustrates various examples of the holding claw pieces 3 to be engaged with these recesses T2 of the rain gutter T. FIG. The engagement portion 31 is formed by cutting and raising a single or a plurality of pieces toward the inside to protrude.
[0026]
FIG. 3B shows an engaging portion 31 which protrudes inward and is formed at an appropriate position of the holding claw piece 3.
[0027]
FIG. 3 (c) shows the engaging portions 31 formed by bending the upper end of the holding claw piece 3 inward and protruding. Which of these engaging portions 31 is to be used is attached. It is appropriately adopted depending on the type of the rain gutter A.
[0028]
In the rain gutter support A of the present embodiment, the one in which the strip-shaped holding claws 3 are provided only in front of the gutter support main body 1 is illustrated. The holding claw piece 3 from which the projection 31 is formed can be provided on the rear ear hooking member 11 that hooks the rear ear T3 of the rain gutter support A shown in FIG.
[0029]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.
According to the rain gutter support according to the present invention, the holding claws are formed with protruding engagement portions that are engaged with the recesses formed on the inner surface of the front ear of the rain gutter. By bending the front end of the rain gutter to the inner surface side of the front ear, the engaging portion can be locked in a recess formed in the front ear of the rain gutter, and the front ear of the rain gutter can be held. .
Therefore, even in a strong wind, the engaging portion of the holding claws does not come off from the recess of the rain gutter T, and the rain gutter can be reliably prevented from coming off.
