A stud bolt (not shown) utilizing the hole 311 and the anchor 5 serve to fix the entire groove receiving frame to the gutter wall. The lower piece 21 and the side piece 22 that are in contact with the outer frame 3 are welded together, and the joints between the lower piece 21, the side piece 22 and the L-shaped member 1 are welded together, so that the entire groove receiving frame is formed into the side groove wall. Will be firmly fixed to. As described above, the horizontal portion 11 of the L-shaped member 1 can reliably support the lower edge 61 of the groove lid 6.

The strip plate 4 is a narrow plate having a uniform cross section in the longitudinal direction.
The strip 4 is set in the notch groove 223 in an upright state and fixed to the side piece 22. The upper side 41 of the strip 4 coincides with the ground surface S. As described above, the side piece 22 is interposed and the width interval between the outer frame 3 and the L-shaped member 1 becomes the narrow groove α, and the heel of the footwear (high heel or the like) is fitted into the narrow groove α. There is a risk of being crowded. Here, a plurality of strips 4 are arranged not only for improving the scenery but also for narrowing the intervals of the narrow grooves α so that the heel does not fit. In this embodiment, two strips 4 are arranged in each narrow groove α (FIG. 1).

When the groove receiving frame thus constructed is set and fixed in the side groove 9, the distance between the vertical portions 12, 12 of the L-shaped member 1 located on both sides of the side groove becomes equal to the lateral width of the groove lid 6. Almost match. Therefore, when the groove lid 6 is placed on the receiving frame,
The horizontal portions 11, 11 of the L-shaped member 1 support the groove lid 6, and the side groove 9 is covered. By the way, even when the side groove 9 is covered by the groove cover 6, the L-shaped member 1 and the outer frame 3
Is a narrow groove α that appears on the ground surface S with the standing piece 2 interposed.
To a deep portion 91 of the side groove 9 is formed. The rain that has fallen around the side groove 9 flows down from the narrow groove α into the groove. The vertical length h ₁ of the lower piece 21 is made longer than the lower vertical plate height h ₂ , and a gap β is formed between the upper horizontal plate 33 of the outer frame 3 and the horizontal portion 11 of the L-shaped member 1. This is because that. Rainwater (arrows in FIG. 1) poured into the narrow groove α falls on the upper horizontal plate 33, and since the gap β is formed here, the rainwater further flows from the upper horizontal plate 33 to the lower vertical plate 32. ， Runs down to the lower horizontal plate 31,
The deep part of the gutter 9 is reached. In the present embodiment, the standing piece 2 has the divided configuration of the lower piece 21 and the side piece 22 as described above, but the standing piece 2 is integrated as shown in FIG. May be Also in such a case, the lower piece 21

The support of the L-shaped member 1 is made stronger.
If necessary, the groove width of the side groove 9 can be kept constant.
End plates P are fixed to both ends of the receiving frame (see FIG. 5). If such a completed product is manufactured at the time of factory shipment, only the installation work will be done on site, and the site work will be easier.

In such a groove receiving frame, even if the side groove 9 is completely closed by the groove lid 6, the narrow groove α communicating with the groove is formed. Similar to the grid-shaped grating of (3), rain that has fallen around the gutter can be guided into the gutter. The cross-sectional area of the narrow groove α is smaller than that of the grid grating, but rainwater is collected and guided into the groove (drainage function)
If it is only, the narrow groove α works well. As far as the drainage function of rainwater is concerned, lattice gratings are of excessive quality. Then, in order to completely close the gutter 9 with the gutter lid 6, the gutter lid 6 having the same decorative stone K as the promenade around the gutter can be adopted (FIG. 2). Since the gutter 9 is also filled with the decorative stones K like the promenade, the effective utilization of the land will be promoted. Further, by adopting this method, the groove receiving frame company is in charge of only the receiving frame, while the makeup stone company is in charge of the makeup stone K of the boardwalk and the makeup stone K of the groove cover 6,
This will contribute to the division of labor and efficiency of construction. Narrow groove α
With regard to (1), since the strips 4 are arranged in the longitudinal direction at an appropriate pitch so that the heel of the footwear and the bicycle tire are not fitted, safety measures are taken for people and vehicles.
In addition, although the metal grating has a drawback that it is slippery, in the present invention, the narrow groove α that allows the shoe to straddle that portion.
The situation of slipping down is also improved. Further, the narrow groove α is formed in the upper side 121 of the L-shaped member 1 and the strip 4

In addition, if the groove lid 6 in which the same decorative stone as the promenade around the gutter is spread is used, the presence of the gutter 9 becomes inconspicuous, and the sidewalk feels wider.

(2) Embodiment 2 In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a groove receiving frame for supporting the groove lid 6 of the collecting basin for collecting rainwater and the like is provided. After cutting the groove receiving frame into a square shape in a plan view with a constant length with respect to the longitudinal direction of FIG. 1, the end face thereof is fixed with an end plate P,
It keeps a square shape. The receiving frame can also employ the groove lid 6 in a hermetically sealed state in which decorative stones are spread, and the same operation and effect as those of the first embodiment can be obtained.

(3) Third Embodiment As shown in FIG. 6, the groove receiving frame of the third embodiment has a receiving plate 7 arranged substantially horizontally within a narrow groove α having a constant depth from the ground surface S to receive the groove. The plate 7, the L-shaped member 1, and the outer frame 3 plate form a concave γ having a concave cross section. The pavement material 8 having water permeability is filled in the recess. The receiving plate 7 is provided with a large number of through holes 71, and even if the pavement material 8 is filled, the rainwater poured into the narrow groove α flows down into the groove through the pavement material 8 and the through holes 71. It has become. Other configurations are basically the same as those of the first embodiment. As the paving material 8, ceramic particles (for example, manufactured by Japan Ceraway Development Co., Ltd., trade name: "Daora Rock"), natural stone particles, etc. are hardened with an epoxy resin adhesive or the like, or rubber chips are hardened. A porous material or the like is used. These may be any as long as they have water permeability, and the constituent materials are not particularly limited. The pavement material 8 is usually colored in accordance with a laid decorative stone around the grating to improve the landscape. The through-hole 71 can be formed by forming a large hole and forming a wire mesh having a mesh structure laid on the hole.
The receiving plate itself may be a mesh wire mesh having strength.

In the groove receiving frame thus constructed, the narrow groove α is also completely filled with the paving material 8. Therefore, a groove in which the same decorative stone (or the paving material 8 etc.) as the promenade around the gutters is spread. When the lid 6 is used, the existence of the gutters 9 cannot be found, and a favorable environment in which the width of the sidewalk is widened is created. Of course, since the rain that has fallen around the gutter flows down into the groove through the pavement material 8 and the through holes 71, the promenade around the gutter will not be flooded. A non-slip effect can also be obtained by paving the paving material 8. Other actions and effects are the same as those of the first embodiment.

The present invention is not limited to the one shown in the above embodiment, but various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention depending on the purpose and application. The shape, material, size, and number of the L-shaped member 1, the upright piece 2, the outer frame 3, the strip plate 4, the receiving plate 7, the paving material 8 and the like are appropriately selected according to the application. In the embodiment, the receiving frame that is linear in the longitudinal direction is shown, but the receiving frame may be arranged so as to draw an arc in the longitudinal direction. The outer frame 3 may not be an integral product but may be a combination. Further, the present invention is a groove receiving frame, and does not limit the use of the conventional grid grating as the groove lid 6.
