Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、観賞魚用水槽の開口上面を閉塞するガラス蓋を支持するための観賞魚用水槽におけるガラス蓋支持具に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
ガラス蓋を支持するための支持部を観賞魚用水槽の上枠に渡設させて一体的に形成することは従来から広く知られている。
そして、この支持部はガラス蓋を支持する機能を有し、また、観賞魚用水槽を補強する機能をも有している。
【０００３】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
昨今においては、観賞魚用水槽、照明具、各種アクセサリー、濾過器などがセット販売されることが多い。
そして、セット販売形態を採用する場合、サイズ的に最も大きく、かつ、上面が開口した観賞魚用水槽の中に照明具、アクセサリー、濾過器などを収容するのが一般的である。
しかし、従来のように観賞魚用水槽の上枠に一体的に支持部を渡設させると、長尺な照明具などを観賞魚用水槽の中にうまく収容させることができず、セット自体が嵩張り、陳列や輸送に支障をきたす場合がある。
【０００４】
この発明は、上記したような不都合を解消するためになされたもので、長尺な照明具などを観賞魚用水槽の中にうまく収容させることができ、セット自体が嵩張らず、陳列や輸送に支障をきたすことのない観賞魚用水槽におけるガラス蓋支持具を提供するものである。
【０００５】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明は、観賞魚用水槽の上面開口を形成する前両側壁板の左側壁板部の上端部に下側へ開放して貫通した溝部で係脱可能な取付部を有し、この取付部の観賞魚用水槽内に位置する部分に左側ガラス蓋の右側端部を支持する支持部を設けた左側ガラス蓋支持補助具と、観賞魚用水槽の上面開口を形成する前両側壁板の右側壁板部の上端部に下側へ開放して貫通した溝部で係脱可能な取付部を有し、この取付部の観賞魚用水槽内に位置する部分に右側ガラス蓋の左側端部を支持する支持部を設けた右側ガラス蓋支持補助具とともに使用して、左、右側ガラス蓋の端部を支持する観賞魚用水槽におけるガラス蓋支持具であって、観賞魚用水槽の上面開口を形成する前両側壁板の前壁板部の上端部と後ろ壁板の上端部とに下側へ開放して貫通した溝部で係脱可能な２つの取付部を直線部で連結し、この直線部の両側に左側ガラス蓋の右側端部および右側ガラス蓋の左側端部を支持する支持部を設け、前壁板部と後ろ壁板とに渡設可能にしたものである。
【０００６】

次に、ガラス蓋３１の取付について説明すると、上述したようにガラス蓋支持具１１およびガラス蓋支持補助具２１を取り付けた後、ガラス蓋３１の右端を段差部１３に載せ、ガラス蓋３１の左端を左側のガラス支持補助具２１の支持部２４に載せることにより、観賞魚用水槽１の上面の左側を閉塞することができる。
また、別のガラス蓋３１の左端を段差部１４に載せ、ガラス蓋３１の右端を右側のガラス支持補助具２１の支持部２４に載せることにより、観賞魚用水槽１の上面の右側を閉塞することができる。
【００１３】
この発明によれば、ガラス蓋支持具１１を観賞魚用水槽１の周壁に係脱可能な構成にしたので、長尺な照明具などを観賞魚用水槽１の中にうまく収容させることができるとともに、観賞魚用水槽１内のメンテナンスが容易にできる。
したがって、観賞魚用水槽１、照明具、各種アクセサリー、濾過器などをセットとした場合、セット自体が嵩張らず、陳列や輸送に支障をきたすことがなくなる。
【００１４】
なお、溝部１６，１８，２３内にパッキンを設けると、ガラス蓋支持具１１、ガラス蓋支持補助具２１をがたつかず、ずれないように密着性よく取り付けることができる。
さらに、ガラス蓋支持具１１を透明にすると、照明具からの光を遮ることがなくなるので、観賞魚の観賞に支障をきたすことはない。
【００１５】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、この発明によれば、左、右側ガラス蓋支持補助具とともに使用するガラス蓋支持具を、観賞魚用水槽の上面開口を形成する前両側壁板の前壁板部の上端部と後ろ壁板の上端部とに下側へ開放して貫通した溝部で係脱可能な２つの取付部を直線部で連結し、この直線部の両側に左側ガラス蓋の右側端部および右側ガラス蓋の左側端部を支持する支持部を設け、前壁板部と後ろ壁板とに渡設可能な構成にしたので、長尺な照明具などを観賞魚用水槽の中にうまく収容させることができるとともに、観賞魚用水槽内のメンテナンスが容易にできる。
したがって、観賞魚用水槽、照明具、各種アクセサリー、濾過器などをセットとした場合、セット自体が嵩張らず、陳列や輸送に支障をきたすことがなくなる。
