2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a shade such as a blind is attached to a window, a pair of suspenders is attached to the upper frame of the window, and an upper rail is hooked on the suspenders to suspend them from the outside of the window.

In this way, there is a problem that when the wind blows, the bottoms of the blinds flutter, and the lower crosspiece makes a noise against the window and scratches the window glass.

As one means for solving the above problems,
There is a method in which a string is tied to the lower rail of the blind and the end of the string is tied to a weight placed on the ground. According to this method, you have to prepare a heavy weight,
It looks bad, and if you want to hang a blind from the window on the second floor,
If you don't have a balcony or balcony to put the stones on, you can't do this.

[0005]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Instead of the conventional method,
As another means for solving the above problems, a method of attaching a hanging tool similar to the hanging tool attached to the upper frame of the window to the lower frame as a hem holder is conceivable. However, according to this method, there is a problem in that ventilation is deteriorated because there is a gap between the window and the blind, etc., only for the length from the window frame to the tip of the hem holder. The hem cannot be hooked onto the hem retainer without using a blind that is the same length as the height.

Therefore, an object of this invention is to prevent the lower rail from hitting the window glass by fluttering the hem of the blind and the like even when the wind blows, and there is a space between the window and the blind. It doesn't hurt the ventilation by giving
It is an object of the present invention to provide an awning support that is not affected by the length of blinds or the like.

A mounting plate 4 is integrally formed at one end of the fixed arm 1, and a mounting bracket 5 having a U-shaped cross section is attached to the rear surface of the mounting plate 4 with a screw 6. Screw mounting holes 7 are formed on both sides of the mounting plate 4 with the fixed arm 1 in between, and screw holes 8 are formed on the inner wall of the mounting bracket 5 at positions corresponding to the screw inserting holes 7.

At the tip of the fixed arm 1, hinge portions 9 are formed on the lower portions of both side surfaces, and a hinge pin hole is formed at the center of the hinge portion 9. Furthermore, an engagement recess 10 is formed on the inner wall of the upper surface of the fixed arm 1.

The bending arm 2 is formed to be slightly shorter than the length of the fixed arm 1. One end of the bending arm 2 has a step portion 11 formed by cutting a part of the peripheral surface. A hinge portion 12 is formed at the lower ends of both side surfaces of the step portion 11, and a hinge pin 3 is integrally formed at the center of the hinge portion 12. The engaging recess 10 provided in the fixed arm 1 at the center of the upper surface of the stepped portion 11.
In addition, a small engaging protrusion 13 is provided which fits with a slight click feeling. At the other end of the bent arm 2, a string passing plate 14 which stands up at right angles to the length direction of the arm is formed, and a string passing hole 15 is formed at the center of the string passing plate 14.

A hinge pin 3 integrally formed with a hinge portion 12 provided at the tip of the bending arm 2 is fitted into a hinge pin hole of a hinge portion 9 provided at the tip of the fixed arm 1 so that both arms are connected. It

Next, a method of using the shade support according to this embodiment will be described.

When the bending arm 2 is rotated around the hinge pin 3, the stepped portion 11 provided at the tip of the bending arm 2 enters the inside of the tip of the fixed arm 1 and the opening edge of the fixed arm 1 and the opening edge of the bending arm are formed. Contact with each other, and the length directions of both arms are aligned to stop the rotation. Further, the engagement concave portion 10 formed on the inner wall of the upper surface of the fixed arm 1 and the engagement convex portion 13 formed at the center of the upper surface of the stepped portion 11 of the bending arm 2 are fitted to each other, and the lengths of both arms are increased. Holds in a straight direction.

As shown in FIG. 3, the mounting bracket 5 of the fixed arm 1
The fixed arm 1 is fixed by inserting the screw into the lower frame 16 of the window from above and inserting the screw 17 into the screw insertion hole 7 and tightening.

The bridging 18 is hung on the outside of the window or the like by a method such as hooking it on a hanging tool 20 attached to the upper frame 19 of the window, and a string 21 is hung from both hanging tools 20, and as shown in FIG. The tips are passed through the string passing holes 15 of the bending arm 2 and are tied together. In this way, the string passing hole 15
Since the position of is closer to the outside of the window than the position where the upper bar 22 of the blind 18 is hooked, the entire blind 18 is supported with the hem portion being apart from the window by a required distance.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the lower rail 23 of the blind 18 and the string passing hole 15 of the bending arm 2 may be directly connected by a string 24 for use.

Upon storage, when the engaging concave portion 10 and the engaging convex portion 13 are disengaged and the bending arm 2 is half-turned about the hinge pin 3, as shown by a chain double-dashed line in FIG. The bending arm 2 is located below the fixed arm 1. At this time, since the length of the bending arm 2 is formed to be slightly shorter than the length of the fixed arm 1, the string passing plate 14 is placed in front of the mounting plate 4 and is approximately half the length of the used state.

Instead of sandwiching the mounting bracket 5 of the fixed arm 1 in the lower frame 16 of the window and tightening it with the screw 17, the back surface of the mounting bracket 5 can be directly attached to the lower frame 16 of the window.

In the awning support of this embodiment, the fixed arm 1 and the mounting plate 4 are T-shaped in plan view, but if the angle formed by the fixed arm 1 and the mounting plate 4 is a right angle, It does not necessarily have to be T-shaped in a plan view.

Also, in this embodiment, the string passing hole 1
