BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, each embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings will be described with the same reference numerals being given to the same parts. In FIG. 1, an anchor 1 is a trunk 2 having a square cross section.
And left and right claws 3 and round bar stock 4,
As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, a round bar engaging member 5 welded to one surface of the body 2 projects to both sides substantially perpendicular to the axis AA of the body 2. A curved stopper 6 is welded to the one surface at an interval from the engaging member 5 in the direction of the axis AA, and the curved stopper 6 and the body 2 are formed to have substantially the same width. The claws 3 may be arranged on either side of the body 2 in FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 6, two guide discs 7 are welded to the stock 4 at intervals in the direction of the axis BB thereof to bend. A long groove 8 provided in each guide disk 7 can be engaged with and disengaged from the engaging member 5 with the stopper 6 and the body 2 interposed therebetween.

Next, a method of attaching the stock 4 to the body 2 will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 7, when the stock 4 is applied to one surface of the body 2 with the two guide disks 7 sandwiching the body 2, the axis of the stock 4 with respect to the axis AA of the body 2 Since BB is almost orthogonal, the stock 4 is slightly rolled counterclockwise in FIG. 7 so that the entrance of the long groove 8 in the guide disk 7 is engaged with the engaging member 5.
If the stock 4 is shifted to the left in FIG. 7 or the body 2 is raised and the stock 4 is dropped toward the engaging member 5, the engagement as shown in FIG. The member 5 relatively moves to the end of the long groove 8.

Further, if the stock 4 is shifted to the left in FIG. 8 or the body 2 is raised to drop the stock 4 toward the curved stopper 6, the engaging member 5 and the groove 8 are engaged. In this state, the stock 4 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 8 around the engagement member 5 along the circumferential surface thereof as shown by a two-dot chain line, and as shown in FIG. The stock 4 comes into contact with one surface of the body 2 in a state in which the guide discs 7 are engaged, and the guide discs 7 also sandwich the curved stopper 6.

The stock 4 is further shifted to the left in FIG.
Alternatively, the trunk 4 is set up and the stock 4 is bent.
9, the stock 4 is slightly rotated in the counterclockwise direction in FIG. 9, and the stock member 4 is relatively displaced in the elongated groove 8 toward the inlet side while the stock member 4 is displaced. Then, as shown in FIG. 10, when the engagement between the long groove 8 and the engaging member 5 is completely disengaged and the stock 4 reaches the deepest position of the curved stopper 6, the stock 4 is moved along its axis B-. If the peripheral surface of the guide disk 7 is made to face the engaging member 5 as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 by appropriately rotating about B, the operation of attaching the stock 4 to the body 2 is completed. I do.

That is, at the completion of the attachment of FIGS. 2 and 3, the displacement of the stock 4 with respect to the body portion 2 in the direction of the axis BB is restricted by the guide discs 7 sandwiching the curved stopper 6. In addition, the displacement of the stock 4 with respect to the body portion 2 in the direction of the axis AA is caused by the peripheral surface of the stock 4 and the peripheral surfaces of both guide disks 7 being the innermost surface of the curved stopper 6 and the engaging member 5, respectively. It is restrained by facing each other, and further, the stock 4 with respect to the body portion 2 upward in FIG.
The displacement of the stock 4 is such that the stock 4
As a result, the body 2 and the stock 4 are firmly connected, and the anchor 1 can fully perform its function.

Further, when the stock 4 is mounted on the body 2, the stock 4 is moved substantially linearly along one surface of the body 2, and the stock 4 is moved along its axis B in the state of FIG.
-B only need to be rotated appropriately.
When the stock 4 is to be removed from the vehicle, the operations just opposite to those described above may be performed, so that all of these operations are very simple, and the work can be performed easily and quickly even on a narrow boat.

Since the rotating force hardly acts on the stock 4 during use of the anchor, the stock 4 does not come off from the body 2 at all. In order to prevent the stock 4 from coming off from the body part 2 just in case, the bending stopper 6
A small downward projection is provided on the inner surface of the top of the body 2 so that the stock 4 moves from the state shown in FIG.
When moving in the direction of the axis AA between the inner surface of the top and a little resistance force by passing through the space slightly beyond the projection, the stock 4 can be
Even if it comes off, the resistance will work,
The stock 4 can be more reliably prevented from falling off.

As a countermeasure for the case where the stock 4 removed from the body 2 on the ship falls on the sea or the like due to irregularity at hand or the like, the stock 4 is made of a light resin, or a hollow resin is used to make the stock 4 or the like. And the stock 4 can be easily collected.

In each of the above embodiments, the engagement member 5
Are fixed on one surface of the body 2, as shown in FIG.
Are made to protrude to the side, and even if other configurations are the same as those of the above embodiments, the same operation and effects as those of the above embodiments can be obtained. The body 2 having a square cross section in the example may be a body having a circular cross section, so that the manufacturing cost as an anchor can be easily reduced.

Further, the present invention is not limited to a connecting device between a trunk and a stock in an anchor, but also as a connecting device that can be attached to and detached from members that cross each other, for example, a clothesline and its support, an assembled toy, and the like. Needless to say, it can be implemented in a wide range of fields.

[0017]

In the connecting device according to the present invention, the two members can be connected or disconnected by a simple displacement of the second member with respect to the first member. Therefore, the practical effect is very large.
