Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] The present invention relates to a blind mounting bracket for fixing the head box of a horizontal blind to a window frame, etc., and in particular, the present invention relates to a blind mounting bracket for fixing the head box of a horizontal blind to a window frame, etc., and in particular, the present invention relates to a blind mounting bracket that fixes the head box of a horizontal blind to a window frame, etc. At the same time, the upper end of the front plate is pivotally attached to the front end of the top plate, the rear end of the bottom plate is pivotably attached to the lower end of the rear plate, and the free ends of the front plate and the bottom plate are attached. The present invention relates to a bracket configured such that the free ends of the front plate and the bottom plate are provided with engaging portions that can be attached to and removed from each other, thereby forming a cavity shaped as a whole for holding a blind head box. .

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in the case of horizontal blinds, the headbox of the horizontal blind is attached to a window frame or the like using a blind mounting bracket of the type described above.

By the way, when such a bracket is used, the length of the bottom plate of the bracket in the swinging direction is longer than the facing distance between the bottom surface of the head box and the uppermost slat of the group of slats suspended by the head box. Another problem is that when the free end of the bottom plate is engaged with the lower end of the front plate during assembly of the head box, the bottom plate of the bracket tends to catch on the slats at the portion corresponding to the position of the bracket.

To explain this problem in detail based on FIG. 4, in FIG. 4, the head box mounting bracket 11 is placed and assembled at an appropriate position in the longitudinal direction of a long head box.
As shown in the figure, the top plate 12 and the rear side plate 13 are integrated into an inverted L shape, the front side plate 14 is pivotally supported by a shaft 18 at the front end of the top plate 12 (the right end in the figure), and the rear side plate 13 is It consists of a bottom plate 15 which is swingably supported by a shaft 19 at the lower end (lower end in the figure), and these front side plates 14 and the bottom plate 15
As shown in the figure, these are provided so that they can be locked and engaged in a substantially right-angled position.

With this construction, the bracket provides a generally mouth-shaped headbox-receiving cavity.

In the case of the bracket having such a configuration, when the bottom plate 15 is engaged with the lower end of the front plate 14, if the bottom plate at the position shown by the broken line in the figure is swung as shown by the solid line, the bottom plate can be moved as described above. This will interfere with the upper slats 17, and in order to prevent such interference, the slats 17 should be bent and the bottom plate 15 should be rotated so that the free end side of the bottom plate 15 does not catch on the slats 17. The work is troublesome, and there are problems in that the slat 17 may break or the slat surface may be damaged.

〔Problems to be solved〕

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems with conventional brackets, and prevents the bottom plate from interfering with and getting caught on the top slat when the bottom plate of the bracket is rotated, thereby preventing the slat from bending. An object of the present invention is to provide a blind mounting bracket that prevents scratches and facilitates blind mounting work.

[Means to solve problems]

The features of the blind mounting bracket of the present invention, which was made to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, are as follows:
In the bracket configured as described above, at least one hinge portion is provided in the middle of the bottom plate in the direction connecting the swinging base and the swinging tip.

[Example of idea]

The following will explain the embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a side view showing one embodiment of the bracket according to the present invention, and in the figure, 1 is the bracket, 2 is the top plate, 3 is the rear side plate, 4 is the front side plate, and 5 is the bottom plate.

In the bracket 1 of this example, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, a top plate 2 and a rear side plate 3 are integrally formed in an inverted L shape, and a shaft 8 at the front end of the top plate 2 supports the upper end of the front side plate 4. The rear end of the bottom plate 5 is pivotally connected to the shaft 9 at the lower end of the rear side plate 3, and the free ends of the front side plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 (swinging tip ) includes the front plate 4 and the bottom plate 5.
Engagement portions 4b and 5c are provided whose free ends engage with each other.
The feature of this example is that the bottom plate 5 has a connecting portion side (hereinafter referred to as the first portion 5a) with the rear side plate 3 via the shaft 9, and a swinging tip side (hereinafter referred to as A second portion 5b) is provided at a position approximately intermediate between these two portions and is rotatably foldable via a hinge portion formed by a shaft 5d.

Next, to explain how it works, first, the upper edge of the head box 6 is brought into contact with the lower side of the top plate 2 of the bracket 1 having the above structure, and the projecting edge 3a provided on the rear side plate 3 and the front side plate 4 are brought into contact with each other. The head box 6 is supported so as to be placed on a protruding edge 4a provided at the lower edge of the box, and the first part 5a and the second part 5b are bent in advance about the rotation axis 5d. The bottom plate 5 (see broken line in FIG. 1) is gradually extended and swung toward the front plate 4, and the first part 5a and the second part 5b of the plate are straightened near the lower edge of the front end. By engaging the engaging portion 5c with the engaging portion 4b of the front plate 4, the final fixed state of the head box 6 is ensured.

As described above, in this example, the head box 6 is supported by the pair of the projecting edge 3a of the rear side plate 3 and the inward projecting edge 4a of the front side plate 4, and the posture of the front side plate 4 is stabilized by being locked by the bottom plate 5. It will be done.

Since the bottom plate 5 has a bent portion, it can conveniently prevent interference with the slats 17 when engaging with the front side plate, so there is no problem such as damage to the slats 17. This has the effect of facilitating assembly workability.

It goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and for example, the bottom plate may have two or more hinges. It is also preferable that the bottom plate has the following configuration. That is, as mentioned above, when the bottom plate is assembled, it is desired that it be folded to prevent interference with the slats, but after the bottom plate is assembled, it is preferable to have a structure in which folding is positively restrained.

In order to provide such a structure, it is possible to assemble, for example, a folding regulating plate that spans both sides of the hinge portion of the bottom plate. Alternatively, a configuration may be adopted in which such a folding regulation plate is slidably assembled to the bottom plate in advance. Furthermore, it is also a preferable embodiment that the assembled folding regulating plate covers the hinge of the bottom plate to prevent damage caused by contact with the slats.

〔effect〕

As mentioned above, the features of the blind mounting bracket of the present invention are effective in preventing damage to the slats at the top of the blind, as well as providing good assembly workability. The effects are huge.
