The mounting cylinder portion 2 is inserted into the low tank 6a through the through hole 13 of the spacer 9, and is tightly fixed to the low tank 6a by tightening the nut 7 into the mounting cylinder portion 2 via the packing 7a.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a structure in which an electric flash device is fixed to a wall surface of a low tank.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a flash device for pulling up the float valve at the bottom of the low tank, there is an electric flash device having a motor. As this electric flash device, as shown in FIG. 4, a case portion 1 having a built-in motor 3, a mounting cylinder portion 2 projecting from the case portion 1 and having an external thread on its outer peripheral surface, and an inside of the mounting cylinder portion 2 are provided. There is an electric flash unit 5 having a shaft 4 which is inserted through the shaft and rotated by a motor 3. Reference numeral 5a is a rectangular protrusion projecting from the case 1. The electric flash unit 5 is called a post-installation type electric flash unit because it is used instead of the manual handle of the manual handle type low tank.

In order to attach the electric flash device to the low tank, the mounting cylinder portion 2 and the convex portion 5a of the electric flash device 5 are inserted into the square hole-shaped opening 10 on the wall surface of the low tank 6, and the mounting cylinder portion 2 is attached. On the other hand, the nut 7 is tightened from the inside of the low tank 6 through the packing 7a. After that, the lever portion 8 is screwed to the tip of the shaft 4.

The motor 3 is operated by a proximity switch (not shown) or the like. When the motor 3 rotates, the lever portion 8 at the tip of the shaft 4 pulls up the float valve (not shown) via the chain.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The electric flash unit 5 as described above can be installed only in the low tank only when the wall surface of the low tank is flat.

That is, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, with respect to the low tanks 6a and 6b where the wall surface on which the electric flash device is to be attached is curved, the case portion 1 of the electric flash device can be closely attached to the wall surface. First, the electric flash unit cannot be firmly fixed.

An object of the present invention is to provide a mounting structure for an electric flash device, which enables the electric flash device to be firmly fixed and mounted even on a rotor having a curved wall on which the flash device is to be mounted. It is in.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The mounting structure of the electric flash device according to the present invention comprises a case part having a built-in motor, a mounting cylinder part protruding from the case part and having an external thread on the outer peripheral surface, and being inserted into the mounting cylinder part. A structure in which an electric flash device having a shaft rotated by a motor is attached to the wall surface of the low tank, and the mounting cylinder portion of the electric flash device is inserted into the opening of the wall surface of the low tank. In a structure in which the electric flash device is fixed to the raw tank by tightening a nut from the inside of the raw tank, a spacer is provided between the casing and the wall of the raw tank for adjusting the gap between the casing and the wall. It is characterized by having done.

[0009]

[Action]

 In the mounting structure of the electric flash device of the present invention, a spacer is interposed between the case part of the electric flash device and the wall surface of the low tank to separate the case part of the electric flash device from the wall surface of the low tank. Therefore, even if the wall surface of the raw tank is curved as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the electric flash unit can be firmly fixed to the raw tank.

[0010]

【Example】

 FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a mounting structure of an electric flash device according to an embodiment, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are perspective views of a spacer.

In this electric flash device mounting structure, a spacer 9 is interposed between the wall surface of the raw tank 6 a and the case portion 1 of the electric flash device 5. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the spacer 9 is such that a convex portion 11 inserted into the opening 10 in the wall surface of the raw tank 6a is provided so as to project from the main body portion 12. A through hole 13 that penetrates the convex portion 11 and the main body portion 12 is provided. Further, the body portion 12 of the spacer 9 is provided with a horn-shaped concave portion 14 that receives the horn-shaped convex portion 5a of the electric flash device 5.

As shown in FIG. 1, in the electric flash unit 5, the mounting cylinder portion 2 is inserted into the low tank 6a through the through hole 13 of the spacer 9, and the nut 7 is attached to the mounting cylinder portion 2 via the packing 7a. By tightening, it is firmly fixed to the low tank 6a. It should be noted that the angular projection 11 of the spacer 9 is inserted into the angular opening 10 and the angular projection 5 a of the electric flash device 5 is inserted into the angular recess 14 of the spacer 9. The rotation of the electric flash device 5 around the shaft 4 is prevented.

Although the electric flash device 5 is attached to the low tank 6a in FIG. 1, a spacer is similarly interposed between the case portion and the wall surface of the low tank for the low tank 6b. As a result, the electric flash unit 5 can be firmly fixed.

The length of the shaft 4 protruding into the low tank can be adjusted by interposing a spacer between the case 1 and the wall surface of the low tank or changing the thickness of the spacer.

[0015]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the mounting structure of the electric flash device of the present invention, the electric flash device can be firmly mounted even if the wall surface of the low tank is curved. Therefore, according to the present invention, a common electric flash device can be attached to various raw tanks.
