Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a hanging fixture for a car deck. This invention relates to hanging fittings that connect vertically to temporary deck panels.

Hanging fittings for vertically interconnecting two temporary deck panels that are adjacent to each other above and below a car deck, which consists of multiple temporary deck panels for loading automobiles that are vertically suspended from the underside of the deck of a ship, are known ( As an example, Jikko Sho 47-418
(See Publication No. 34).

This type of hanging bracket connects the upper end to the upper panel via a pivot pin.
The lower end is rotatably connected to the lower panel, and a joint pin is provided in the middle so that the car deck can be folded by the joint pin when the car deck is stored.

However, since the spacing between the rotation pins attached to both the upper and lower ends of the hanging bracket is constant, there is a risk of wasting the cargo loading space between the decks when loading small cars on the temporary deck panels. When loading large vehicles, the height between the decks is insufficient.

The present invention helps to solve these types of problems that sometimes occur with conventional car deck hanging hardware.

The purpose of the present invention is to change the spacing between the upper and lower deck panels according to the height of the cars loaded on the temporary deck panels, secure the required space between the decks, eliminate wasted deck space, and improve loading capacity. The purpose of the present invention is to obtain an adjustable car deck hanging bracket that is useful for this purpose.

According to the present invention, there is provided a suspension fitting for a car deck made of a steel bar having a joint pin in the middle of its length and rotatably connected at its upper end to an upper deck and at its lower end to a lower deck, comprising: - a force arm; A bell crank is connected to the lower end of the steel bar and the central part of the length is rotatably attached to a mounting base on the lower deck. a stopper member on the mount that holds the bell crank at a high level; a removable spacer that is inserted between the opposite arm of the bell crank and the mount and holds the opposite arm at a high level; There is obtained a car deck hanging fitting characterized in that it is equipped with a height adjustment mechanism consisting of.

Now, an embodiment of the car deck hanging fitting of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to Figures 1a and b, upper temporary deck panel 12
An upper link 1A made of a steel bar connected to the upper link 1A by a pivot pin 3, a lower link IB made of a steel bar rotatably connected to the lower end of the upper link 1A by an articulation pin 4, and a first pivot pin 6. The suspension of the car deck of the present invention comprises a pivot arm or bell crank 2 rotatably attached to the lower temporary deck panel 13 and connected to the lower end of the lower link 1B by a second pivot pin 5. A fitting 10 is shown.

The hanging fitting 10 is folded by the joint pin 4 when the car deck is stored, similar to the conventional car deck hanging fitting.

The hanging fixture 10 of the present invention is characterized by having a rotating arm or bell crank 2 between the lower end of the lower link 1B and the lower temporary deck panel 13.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, a rotating arm 2 having predetermined dimensions
The intermediate portion of the length of the rotating arm 2 is rotatably attached to the reinforced mounting base 7 of the lower temporary deck panel 13 by a first rotating pin 6.

The right end of the rotating arm 2 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the lower link 1B by a second rotating pin 5 parallel to the first rotating pin 6.

The first and second pivot pins 6.5 are separated by a distance t. The pivot arm 2 impinges on a portion 2L extending from the first pivot pin 6 to the opposite side from the second pivot pin 5. A mating plate 15 is provided, and when the pivot arm 2 is pivoted in the counterclockwise direction B around the first pivot pin 6 as seen in FIG. 2 due to the moment applied by the lower link 1B, the lower temporary structure is Deck panel 13
The stopper 11 provided on the mounting base 7 of
5 and stop the rotating arm 2 at this position (hereinafter referred to as the first position).

By inserting a liner 16 between the abutment plate 15 and the stopper 11, the first position of the rotating arm 2 can be adjusted slightly.

The rotating arm 2 is rotated by a predetermined angle α in the clockwise direction A from the first position to connect the abutment plate 15 and the lower temporary deck panel 13.
When inserting the spacer member 9 between the spacer member 9 and the restraining pin 8 on the mounting base 7, the rotating arm 2 is held in this position (hereinafter referred to as the second position).

As shown in the figure, the position of the second rotation pin 5 differs by a height H between the first and second positions.

As shown in the figure, the height H is determined by the distance t between the first and second pivot pins and the pivot angle α of the pivot arm 2.

The change H in the height of the second pivot pin 5 directly corresponds to the change in the interval between the temporary deck panels on both the upper and lower layers.

In the figure, the first and second positions are shown as a typical example, but if an appropriate liner is inserted between the abutment plate 15 and the stopper 11 or the spacer member 9 as described above, the first and second positions are shown as a typical example. at a desired position between the first and second positions;
Therefore, the second rotation pin 5 can be positioned at a desired height.

The spacer 9 has a notch 17 at its end so that it can be easily attached to and detached from the restraining pin 8.

Reference numeral 14 indicates a connecting pin of another hanging fitting (not shown) that hangs down from the lower deck panel 13 toward a lower deck panel.

Bell crank 2 of the present invention, stopper 1 on mounting base 7
1, and the spacer 9 inserted between the end of the bell crank 2 opposite to the pin 5 (i.e., the end with the abutment plate 15) and the mounting base 7 is the rotating pin 5. This is a height adjustment mechanism.

As described above, according to the present invention, the lower temporary deck panel is provided with a rotating arm, and by selecting the position of the rotating arm, the inter-deck height can be reliably and easily changed.
