Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial field of application] This invention relates to an eaves gutter hanging fitting, especially an eaves gutter hanging fitting that is an internal hanging type that does not expose the eaves end portion of the eaves gutter after construction. .

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, eaves gutter hanging fittings were generally used to hold the edge of the ear from above, so the holding part of the eaves gutter hanging fitting was exposed above the edge of the ear.
It was not possible to completely satisfy the initial aesthetic goal. Therefore, an internal hanging type eaves gutter was devised in which an opening was provided inside the edge of the eaves gutter to fit the end of the eave gutter support fitting made of a metal band. In order to insert the eaves, a relatively large opening must be made at the rim, which reduces the strength of the eaves trough, especially for eaves troughs with small rims such as eaves troughs for general housing. This caused damage such as meandering and deformed eaves gutters.

Therefore, the inventors of this invention created a locking protrusion by bending the tip of a thin and rigid rigid band such as a spring plate upward at the end of the eave gutter support fitting. By attaching the ear edge locking device, the opening of the eave gutter edge was made smaller, and the above-mentioned problems such as meandering and deformation of the eaves gutter were eliminated.

However, during construction of this type of eaves gutter, the eave gutter attached to the eave gutter hanger must be slid and adjusted in position to connect to the adjacent eaves gutter, so the sliding performance of the eave gutter cannot be improved. For this reason, it is necessary to form the upper end shape of the locking protrusion into an arc shape where the locking protrusion makes point contact with the inner wall of the eaves gutter edge edge, and furthermore, the locking protrusion needs to be in good condition. In order to have good durability, it is necessary to form it into a wide shape.

However, if the upper end of the wide locking protrusion is made into an arc shape, the height of the locking protrusion will be relatively high, making it difficult to use eaves with small edges such as eaves gutters for general housing. The problem was that it could not be used for gutters.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

This idea was devised to solve the above-mentioned problems with conventional products, and it is a gutter hanger that can be slid freely into eaves gutters that have a minimum opening that does not reduce strength or cause corrosion. By locking, the above-mentioned problems such as workability and durability are solved.

[Means to solve the problem]

This invention was devised in view of the above, and is an eaves gutter hanging metal fitting in which an eaves edge fixing device is attached to an eave gutter support metal fitting formed by bending a band to form eave gutter edge holding portions at both ends. At least as an outdoor gutter edge retaining part, a thin and rigid horizontal rigid band attached to the tip of a horizontal band extending horizontally is bent downward in the width direction. By using a locking piece that has a curved portion on its upper surface and a locking protrusion directed upward at its tip, contact between the inner wall of the eaves gutter edge edge and the locking protrusion of the conventional product can be prevented. The problem was solved by reducing the size of the locking protrusion instead of contacting the upper end of the opening of the gutter rim with the curved part of the horizontal rigid band.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an embodiment of this invention shown in the drawings will be described. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the eaves gutter hanging fitting of this invention, and 1 in the figure shows an eaves gutter formed by bending a strap. It is a supporting metal fitting, and the end located on the outdoor side is extended horizontally to form a horizontal strap 2, and the end located on the indoor side is raised upward and has a U-shaped cross section at its tip. A spring piece 4 is formed on the raised part, 5 is an eaves fixture attached to the eaves gutter support fitting 1, and 6 is an eave gutter support. The outdoor eaves gutter edge retaining part is formed at the outdoor end of the metal fitting 1, and a thin and rigid horizontal rigid band such as a thin stainless steel plate is attached to the tip of the horizontal band 2. A curved portion 7 is formed on the upper surface by bending downward in the width direction.
A locking piece 9 is fixed thereto, with a locking protrusion 8 formed upwardly directed at the distal end thereof.

The height of the curved part 7 of the horizontal rigid band is set at the lower half of the inner wall surface of the hollow chamber C formed within the edge B of the eaves gutter A to be installed, as shown in Figure 2. The height of the slit-like opening D is approximately the same as the height from the upper end of the hollow chamber C to the lower end of the protrusion E hanging down.

[Effect of idea]

The eaves gutter hanging fitting of this invention is an eaves gutter hanging fitting formed by attaching an eave end fixing device 5 to an eaves gutter support fitting 1 formed by forming eave gutter edge holding parts 3 and 6 at both ends by bending a band. At least as the eaves gutter edge holding part 6 on the outdoor side, a thin and rigid horizontal rigid band attached to the tip of the horizontal band 2 extending horizontally is bent downward in the width direction. The locking piece 9 has a curved portion 7 formed on the upper surface thereof, and a locking protrusion 8 directed upward at the distal end of the locking piece 9.
As shown in the figure, the opening D of the ear edge B on the outdoor side is brought into contact with the locking protrusion 8 of the eaves gutter hanging fitting that has been fixed to the eaves in advance, and the opening D of the ear edge B on the outdoor side is pressed to be locked to the protrusion E. Next, the indoor side ear edge is fitted into the indoor side ear edge holding part 3 and fixed with a spring piece 4.

Therefore, the eaves gutter hanging fitting of this invention is horizontal to the upper end of the opening D of the ear edge B, that is, the lower end of the protrusion E, instead of the conventional contact between the inner wall of the eaves gutter edge and the locking protrusion. Since it is formed to be able to slide by contact with the curved part 7 of the rigid band, it is possible to lock the ear edge B by fitting it into the opening D, which is opened to the minimum. In addition, since the sliding of the eaves gutter A is performed smoothly when connecting the eaves gutter A after locking, the workability is significantly improved, and since the eaves gutter edge retaining tool 3 is formed in a wide shape. This also prevents eaves gutters from becoming detached due to damage caused by changes over time or from strong winds.
