[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a retainer. [Background technology]
[0002] In a simple structure such as a vinyl greenhouse having a framework with arch pipes arranged in a line in the depth direction and main pipes horizontally spanning each arch pipe in the depth direction, and a sheet fixed to the outer surface of the framework via a sheet fixing frame attached to the framework, if water condenses on the indoor surface of the sheet falls on plants being grown indoors, it can cause root rot, disease, poor growth and poor quality of the plants. Therefore, a collector for collecting the condensed water and a hose connected at one end to the collector for discharging the water collected by the collector to the outside are provided as accessories.
[0003] In multi-unit vinyl greenhouses, the hose is designed to drain the water collected by the collection device into a valley bucket installed in the valley between the greenhouses, and condensed water is discharged outside through the valley bucket.
[0004] In this way, simple structures often have a collector and a hose as accessories to prevent condensation. The collector is installed on the simple structure by fitting the opposing ends of multiple long, tub-shaped dew-receiving frames that are hung in series in the depth direction of the framework. The collector also has a nozzle at its bottom end that leads inward, and is connected to the hose by inserting the nozzle into one end of the hose.
[0005] The other end of the hose is placed in the trough as described above, but because it is flexible, it will fall out of the trough if it is not supported, so it is necessary to tie the hose to the pipe material that makes up the framework. Binding the hose to the pipe material is generally done using wire or a cable tie (for example, see Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2002-84900 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0007] When cultivating plants in such simple structures, the indoor temperature must be adjusted to a level suitable for growing plants, so an opening is provided in the valley of the vinyl greenhouse and a sheet covering the opening can be rolled up to open the opening and ventilate the room.
[0008] In detail, a winding shaft is attached to the lower end of the sheet that covers the opening, and the winding shaft is driven to rotate to roll up the sheet, thereby opening the opening and ventilating the room, and when indoor ventilation is not required, the mounting shaft is rotated in the reverse direction to unfold the sheet and close the opening. When the sheet is wound up by the winding shaft, the sheet wound up in a roll on the outer periphery of the mounting shaft moves upward while rotating on the arch pipe from the valley portion toward the roof side, and when the sheet is unfolded, the rolled sheet moves on the arch pipe from the roof side toward the valley portion.
[0009] As mentioned above, the hose needs to be tied to the arch pipe so that it does not fall out of the trough, but the hose is tied to the arch pipe in the vicinity of the trough of the arch pipe facing the opening. The hose is tied to the arch pipe by binding the hose and the pipe from the outside using wire or cable ties, so a protrusion is formed by the wire or cable ties on the upper end facing the opening of the arch pipe.
[0010] Therefore, when opening and closing the opening, the roll-shaped sheet wound around the outer circumference of the mounting shaft moves up and down on the arch pipe, and each time the opening is opened and closed, the roll-shaped sheet rides up on the protrusions of the wire or cable ties that bind the hose, creating the problem of damaging and deteriorating the sheet.
[0011] To fasten a hose to the pipe material that makes up the framework, it is necessary to hold the pipe material and hose adjacent to each other while wrapping wire or a cable tie around the outside of both, making the fastening process very tedious.
[0012] Furthermore, after binding the hose to the pipe, it is necessary to cut off the excess ends of the wire and cable ties so as not to damage the sheet, making the binding work complicated and time-consuming.
[0013] SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT EMBODIMENTS The present invention aims to provide a holder that can easily fasten accessories of simple structures such as hoses to pipe material without deteriorating the sheet. [Means for solving the problem]
[0014] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the holding device of the present invention comprises a holding portion that holds the pipe material from the side in a simple structure that has a framework formed by combining multiple pipe materials and a sheet fixed to the outer surface of the framework to form a chamber inside, and a holding portion that is connected to the holding portion and holds accessories attached to the simple structure, and is characterized in that when the holding portion holds the pipe material, the outdoor side end of the holding portion is positioned inside the room relative to the outdoor side end of the pipe material.
[0015] In a holder configured in this manner, the gripping portion grips the pipe material from the side, and when the gripping portion grips the pipe material, the outdoor end of the gripping portion does not protrude to the outdoor side at the same level as the outdoor end of the pipe material or beyond the outdoor end of the pipe material, so it does not come into contact with the sheet.
[0016] The gripping portion of the holder may include a pair of side pieces that contact the outside of the room from the center in the direction in which the pipe penetrates from indoors to outdoors, and a bottom piece that connects the side pieces and contacts the indoor end of the pipe. Since the holder configured in this manner includes a pair of side pieces and a bottom piece, it can be attached to the pipe from the indoor side and can stably grip the pipe even if the pipe has a circular cross section.
[0017] Furthermore, the upper ends of the side pieces may be connected to the bottom piece in an inclined position so that they approach each other, and the opening width between the tips of the side pieces may be shorter than the outer diameter of the pipe. With a holder configured in this way, the pair of side pieces and the bottom piece can clamp the pipe at three points: two points on the outside of the center in the direction that it penetrates between the indoor and outdoor areas, and the inside end of the pipe, so that the pipe can be firmly held and prevented from falling off the pipe.
[0018] The holding portion may be a hook having a base end connected to the gripping portion, and the tip of the hook may have a curved surface that curves in a direction away from the gripping portion. With a holder configured in this manner, the holding portion is a hook, which increases the freedom of selection of the attachment order of the hoses, and allows the accessory to be inserted smoothly into the hook.
[0019] Furthermore, when the gripping portion and the hook of the holder are formed from a single wire, the holder can be manufactured easily and inexpensively.
[0020] In addition, if the hook has a curved portion at the tip formed by bending and molding a wire, an operator can easily attach the holder to the pipe by pinching the curved portion even if the holder is formed from a single wire.
[0021] The accessory may be a hose connected to a collector that collects water condensed on the interior side of the seat, and the distance between the tip of the hook of the holder and the gripping portion may be shorter than the outer diameter of the hose. When the hook catches and holds the hose, the holder configured in this way can prevent the hose from falling off the hook.
[0022] Furthermore, when the maximum distance between the inner circumference of the hook and the outer circumference of the bottom piece is made shorter than the outer diameter of the hose, the retainer can tighten the hose between the hook and the bottom piece, firmly grip the hose, and prevent the hose from swaying.
[0023] In addition, when the pipe material has a circular cross section, the holder may have a C-shaped holding portion and a gripping piece extending from each end of the holding portion and facing each other. A holder configured in this manner has a simple structure and shape, making it easy and inexpensive to manufacture.
[0024] The holding piece of the holder may have straight portions rising from both ends of the holding part and arc-shaped portions extending from the straight portions and facing each other. The holding device configured in this manner can prevent the hose from coming into contact with the pipe material and becoming worn.
[0025] Furthermore, the accessory may be a hose connected to a collector that collects water condensed on the interior side of the seat, and the inner diameter of the holding part of the holder may be set to be smaller than the outer diameter of the hose. With the holder configured in this way, the hose can be tightened to hold the hose firmly and prevent it from swaying. Effect of the Invention
[0026] The retainer of the present invention makes it possible to easily fasten accessories of simple structures such as hoses to pipe material without deteriorating the sheet. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0028] <First embodiment> As shown in Figures 1 to 8, the holder 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention is configured to include a holding portion 2 that holds pipe materials P1, P2, and P3 in the frame B of a vinyl greenhouse G as a simple structure from the side, and a hook 3 as a holding portion that is connected to the holding portion 2 and holds a hose H as an accessory attached to the vinyl greenhouse G.
[0029] The holder 1 and the vinyl greenhouse G to which the holder 1 is attached will be described in detail below. As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the vinyl greenhouse G as a simple structure is provided with a framework B formed by arch pipes P1 as a plurality of pipe materials installed on the ground in parallel in the depth direction of the vinyl greenhouse G, a purlin pipe P2 as a plurality of linear pipe materials stretched parallel to the ground along the depth direction across the plurality of arch pipes P1, a plurality of linear sheet fixing frames F stretched parallel to the ground along the depth direction across the arch pipes P1, and sheets S1, S2 fixed to the outer surface of the framework B via the sheet fixing frames F to cover the gable surface, roof surface and side surface of the framework B, forming a room R inside.
[0030] The vinyl greenhouse G as a simple structure in which the retaining device 1 of the first embodiment is utilized is a row-type greenhouse in which multiple buildings are adjacent to each other in the width direction, and the sides of adjacent vinyl greenhouses G are overlapped and connected in the width direction, and the rooms of each building are connected to each other to form a single room R.
[0031] In addition, the framework B of each vinyl greenhouse G has a number of pipe materials P3 arranged vertically and horizontally on its gable surface, and the sheet S1 is fixed to the gable surface of the framework B using a sheet fixing frame (not shown) attached to the pipe materials P3.
[0032] At least one vinyl greenhouse G is provided with an entrance on the gable surface of the framework B to allow workers to enter and exit room R within the vinyl greenhouse G, and a door T for opening and closing the entrance is attached to the pipe material P3 so as to be slidable toward the frontage of the vinyl greenhouse G. A sheet S1 is also stretched over the door T, and when the entrance is closed with the door T, the interior of room R of the vinyl greenhouse G can be closed off.
[0033] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a valley V is formed in the center of adjacent vinyl greenhouses G, and an opening O is provided from the middle of the roof surface of the framework B to the valley V in order to ventilate the room R. The vinyl greenhouse G is equipped with an opening / closing sheet S2 that covers the opening O, a winding shaft W attached to the lower end of the opening / closing sheet S2, and a handle J for rotating the winding shaft W. The winding shaft W may be rotated by a driving source such as a motor. When the winding shaft W is rotated to wind up the opening / closing sheet S2, the opening / closing sheet S2 is wound up on the winding shaft W and turns into a roll, and moves upward on the arch pipe P1, which is the roof side, while rotating. When the winding shaft W is rotated in the reverse direction from a state in which the opening O is open, the roll-shaped opening / closing sheet S2 on the outer periphery of the winding shaft W moves downward on the arch pipe P1, which is the valley side, while rotating, so that the opening / closing sheet S2 is deployed over the opening O, and the opening O can be closed, as shown in FIG. 1.
[0034] 2, the vinyl greenhouse G is equipped with a condensation collection device K consisting of multiple linear dew receiving frames D attached parallel to the ground along the depth direction of the vinyl greenhouse G between the top of the arch pipe P1 and the middle of the valley V in order to collect water condensed on the indoor side of the sheets S1, S2 and prevent it from dropping onto the soil in the room R, a collection tool C connected to the ends of adjacent dew receiving frames D, D in the depth direction to collect water, a valley bucket VG installed in the valley V of the vinyl greenhouses G, G, and a hose H as an accessory for draining the water collected by the collection tool C into the valley bucket VG. Multiple condensation collection devices K are installed at appropriate intervals in the depth direction of the vinyl greenhouse G.
[0035] As shown in Fig. 3, the dew receiving frame D is provided integrally with the frame that fixes the sheet S2 to the framework B, and has a bucket-shaped frame that receives the water condensed on the indoor side of the sheet S1 and the opening / closing sheet S2. As shown in Fig. 3, the collection tool C connects the ends of the dew receiving frames D, D together, and can collect water from the ends of the dew receiving frames D, D and discharge it from nozzles 4 at the lower ends.
[0036] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the hose H has a bellows-like unevenness on its outer periphery, and one end, which is the upper end, is fitted onto the outer periphery of the nozzle 4 of the collector C and connected to the collector C, while the other end, which is the lower end, is placed in the valley tub VG. In addition, the hose H is held by a holder 1 attached to the arch pipe P1 from one end connected to the collector C to the other end facing the valley tub VG so that the other end does not fall out of the valley tub VG. Note that the hose H may be held by multiple holders 1.
[0037] The specific configuration of the dew receiving frame D and the collector C of the condensation recovery device K shown in Figures 2 and 3 is an example, and can be modified by design changes. In addition, when the dew receiving frame D is provided in a plurality of rows above and below the arch pipe P1, a hole, nozzle, or recess that allows the connection of a hose H may be provided on the upper side of the collector C, and the lower end of the hose H connected to the nozzle 4 of the collector C that connects the upper row of dew receiving frames D may be connected to the collector C that connects the lower row of dew receiving frames D. In this way, the water collected by the collector C in the upper row can be discharged to the valley tub VG through the hose H that connects the collector C in the upper row and the collector C in the lower row, and the hose H connected to the collector C in the lower row. In this way, the hose length can be shortened compared to the case where the water is directly discharged to the valley tub VG by the hose H connected to the collector C in the upper row.
[0038] Furthermore, when the condensation collection device K is installed from the roof of the vinyl greenhouse G to the shoulder or side opposite the valley V, or when the vinyl greenhouse G is a stand-alone type and the condensation collection device K is installed from the roof to the shoulder or side, although not shown, the other end of the hose H that is not connected to the nozzle 4 of the collection tool C can be extended downward in the vinyl greenhouse G to drain the condensation outside the room R.
[0039] Next, a detailed description will be given of the holder 1. As shown in Fig. 4 to Fig. 6, the holder 1 is configured with a gripping part 2 that grips from the side an arch pipe P1 as a pipe material constituting the framework B of the vinyl greenhouse G, and a hook 3 that has one end connected to the gripping part 2 and that holds a hose H as an accessory attached to the vinyl greenhouse G.
[0040] The retainer 1 of the first embodiment is formed by bending a single metal wire to form a gripping portion 2 and a hook 3 as a retaining portion. That is, the retainer 1 is formed of a single wire. As shown in FIG. 7, when the arch pipe P1 is viewed from the axial direction of the arch pipe P1, the lower end in FIG. 7, which is the end facing the indoor side of the arch pipe P1, is the indoor side end a, and the upper end in FIG. 7, which is the end facing the outdoor side of the arch pipe P1, is the outdoor side end b, and the left and right sides of the arch pipe P1 in FIG. 7 are the sides, and the gripping portion 2 is attached to the arch pipe P1 by gripping the side of the arch pipe P1.
[0041] In detail, the gripping portion 2 has a pair of side pieces 2a, 2b that abut the outside of the room on the sides of the arch pipe P1, and a bottom piece 2c that connects the side pieces 2a, 2b to each other and abuts the inside end of the arch pipe P1.
[0042] The side piece 2a is in an inverted U-shape, and one end of the wire forming the side piece 2a is connected to one end of the arc-shaped bottom piece 2c. The side piece 2b is also in an inverted U-shape, and one end of the wire forming the side piece 2b is connected to the other end of the bottom piece 2c, and the other end is connected to the base end of the hook 3.
[0043] As shown in Fig. 4, the side pieces 2a, 2b are connected to the bottom piece 2c with the tips 2a1, 2b1 tilted toward each other, and the bottom piece 2c has a downwardly convex arc shape. Therefore, when the holder 1 is viewed from the front as shown in Fig. 4, the side pieces 2a, 2b and the bottom piece 2c form a sector-shaped groove 2d in which the opening width L1 of the tips 2a1, 2b1, which are the outdoor ends of the side pieces 2a, 2b, is narrower than the width L2 of the bottom piece 2c. In this way, the outdoor ends of the gripping portion 2 are the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b.
[0044] In addition, the opening width L1 between the upper ends of the side pieces 2a, 2b is shorter than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1 shown by the dashed line in Figure 4, and the width L2 of the bottom piece 2c is longer than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1. In addition, the vertical height L3 from the lowest end 2c1 of the inner circumference of the bottom piece 2c to the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b is higher than the radius φ / 2 of the arch pipe P1 but lower than the outer diameter φ.
[0045] Therefore, when the gripping portion 2 is pressed against the arch pipe P1 toward the outside of the room with the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b of the gripping portion 2 in contact with the indoor side of the arch pipe P1, the gripping portion 2 elastically deforms, the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b move away from each other, and the arch pipe P1 is pushed into the groove 2d. Then, the side pieces 2a, 2b in a state where the tips 2a1, 2b1 are spread apart, contact the outdoor side of the arch pipe P1 from the center in the indoor / outdoor direction, so that the arch pipe P1 is pressed against the bottom piece 2c by the elastic force of the side pieces 2a, 2b, and the indoor side end a of the arch pipe P1 contacts the lowest end 2c1 of the inner circumference of the bottom piece 2c.
[0046] In this way, when the arch pipe P1 is fitted into the groove 2d of the gripping part 2, as shown in Fig. 7, the side pieces 2a and 2b abut on the outside of the room (upper side in Fig. 7) from the center in the direction penetrating the arch pipe P1 from the inside to the outside of the room (vertical direction in Fig. 7), and the lowermost end 2c1 of the inner circumference of the bottom piece 2c abuts on the lower end of the arch pipe P1. In this way, the gripping part 2 tightens the arch pipe P1 at three points, namely, two points on the left and right sides of the arch pipe P1 in Fig. 7 that are on the outside of the room (upper side in Fig. 7) from the center in the direction penetrating the room to the outside of the room (vertical direction in Fig. 7) and the lower end, so that the arch pipe P1 can be firmly gripped. In addition, since the bottom piece 2c has a circular arc shape that is convex downward in Fig. 7, when the arch pipe P1, which has a circular cross section, abuts on the inner circumference of the bottom piece 2c, the arch pipe P1 is well seated, and the gripping part 2 can stably grip the arch pipe P1 inserted inward. In addition, the bottom piece 2c may be in a shape other than an arc, and if the cross-section of the pipe material is square, making it straight will improve the seating of the pipe material inside the gripping portion 2, and the gripping portion 2 will be able to stably grip the square pipe material inserted inward.
[0047] In addition, since the vertical height L3 from the bottom end of the groove side of the bottom piece 2c to the tip of the side pieces 2a, 2b is lower than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1, the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b, which are the outdoor ends of the gripping part 2, are arranged on the indoor side of the outdoor end b of the arch pipe P1 when the gripping part 2 grips the arch pipe P1. In other words, the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b, which are the outdoor ends of the gripping part 2, are arranged at a position retreated to the indoor side from the outdoor end b of the arch pipe P1 when the gripping part 2 grips the arch pipe P1, so that when the arch pipe P1 is viewed from the axial direction, it does not protrude to the outdoor side at the same level as the outdoor end b of the arch pipe P1 or beyond the outdoor end b of the arch pipe P1. Therefore, even if the gripping portion 2 is attached to the arch pipe P1 as described above, the gripping portion 2 does not straddle across the outdoor end of the arch pipe P1, does not span the outdoor end, and does not protrude beyond the arch pipe P1 to the outdoor side.
[0048] Next, in holder 1 of this embodiment, the holding portion is a hook 3. Hook 3 has a straight portion 3a extending from the other end of side piece 2b, an arc-shaped portion 3b continuing from straight portion 3a, and a curved portion 3c curved in a U-shape from the tip of arc-shaped portion 3b in a direction away from grip portion 2. In this way, hook 3 has a base end connected to grip portion 2, and by having curved portion 3c at its tip, it has a curved surface 3d at its tip that curves in a direction away from grip portion 2.
[0049] As shown in FIG. 4, the curvature of the arc-shaped portion 3b of the hook 3 is larger than the curvature of the bottom piece 2c of the gripping portion 2, and the opening width L4, which is the distance between the tip of the hook 3 and one end of the bottom piece 2c of the gripping portion 2, is less than the minimum outer diameter of the hose H shown by the dashed line in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 8, the hose H has a bellows-like unevenness that continues in the axial direction on the outer periphery, and the outer diameter at the recess is the minimum outer diameter. Therefore, when the hose H is inserted between the hook 3 and the bottom piece 2c and the hook 3 holds the hose H, the hose H can be prevented from falling off the hook 3. If the hose H does not have a bellows-like unevenness on the outer periphery, the opening width L4 can be made shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H to prevent the hose H from falling off the hook 3.
[0050] Furthermore, since the hose H is flexible, when the hose H is inserted into the hook 3, the hose H is compressed and deformed and inserted into the hook 3. However, if the accessory is not the hose H but a part that is less likely to deform, the hook 3 can elastically deform so as to move away from the bottom piece 2c, so that the accessory can be inserted into the hook 3 even if the opening width L4 is shorter than the minimum length of the outer shape of the accessory.
[0051] In addition, the hook 3 has a curved surface 3d at the tip, and when the hose H is inserted between the hook 3 and the bottom piece 2c, the hose H is guided by the curved surface 3d and inserted, so that the hose H can be smoothly inserted into the hook 3. Note that the holder 1 is formed of a single wire, and the connection portion between one end of the side piece 2a of the gripping portion 2 and one end of the bottom piece 2c is molded by bending, so that no sharp corners are formed at the connection portion, and the hose H can be inserted into the hook 3 without damaging the hose H. In addition, as described above, the holder 1 is formed of a single wire, but the hook 3 has a curved portion 3c, so that when performing the work of attaching the gripping portion 2 to the arch pipe P1, the worker can easily attach the holder 1 to the arch pipe P1 by pinching the curved portion 3c with his fingers.
[0052] Since the holder 1 is formed from a single wire and the hose H has a bellows on its outer periphery, when the hose H is inserted into the hook 3, the bottom piece 2c and the hook 3 are inserted into the recesses of the bellows of the hose H, as shown in FIG. 8. Therefore, even if an axial tensile load is applied to the hose H, the axial movement of the hose H can be restricted and the hose H can be firmly held.
[0053] Furthermore, in the holder 1 of the first embodiment, the maximum distance L5 between the inner circumference of the arc-shaped portion 3b of the hook 3 and the outer circumference of the bottom piece 2c is shorter than the minimum outer diameter of the hose H, and the hook 3 and the bottom piece 2c tighten the hose H to hold the hose H in a fixed manner, thereby preventing the hose H from wobbling. If it is acceptable for the hose H to move loosely within the hook 3, the minimum distance between the inner circumference of the arc-shaped portion 3b of the hook 3 and the outer circumference of the bottom piece 2c may be longer than the outer diameter φ of the hose H. If the hose H does not have a bellows-like unevenness on its outer circumference, the maximum distance L5 can be shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H to tighten the hose H between the hook 3 and the bottom piece 2c to hold the hose H in a fixed manner, thereby preventing the hose H from wobbling.
[0054] As described above, the holding device 1 of the first embodiment comprises a holding portion 2 that holds the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 from the side in a vinyl greenhouse (simple structure) G which has a framework B formed by combining a plurality of arch pipes (pipe materials) P1 and sheets S1, S2 fixed to the outer surface of the framework B and which forms a chamber R inside, and a hook (holding portion) 3 that is connected to the holding portion 2 and holds a hose (accessory part) H attached to the vinyl greenhouse (simple structure) G, and when the holding portion 2 holds the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, the tips 2a1, 2b1, which are the outdoor end of the holding portion 2, are positioned inside the room relative to the outdoor end of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1.
[0055] In the holder 1 configured in this manner, the gripping portion 2 grips the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 from the side, and the tips 2a1, 2b1, which are the outdoor end of the gripping portion 2, do not protrude to the outdoor side at the same level as the outdoor end b of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 or beyond the outdoor end b of the arch pipe P1. Therefore, according to the holder 1 of this embodiment, the gripping portion 2 does not come into contact with the opening and closing sheet S2 covering the arch pipe (pipe material) P1. In other words, even if the holder 1 of the first embodiment is used to bind the hose (accessory) H to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, it does not move on the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 or interfere with the opening and closing sheet S2 covering the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, so the opening and closing sheet S2 is not deteriorated.
[0056] In addition, by pressing the holder 1 from inside the room to attach it to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 and then hooking the hose (accessory) H on the hook 3, or by inserting the hose (accessory) H into the hook 3 and then pressing the holder 1 from inside the room to attach it to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, the binding of the hose (accessory) H to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 is completed.
[0057] As described above, according to the holder 1 of the first embodiment, the sheet S2 can be easily bound to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 of the hose (accessory) H of the vinyl greenhouse (simple structure) G without deterioration.
[0058] In addition, since the retainer 1 of the first embodiment has a retaining portion which is the hook 3, the retainer 1 can be attached to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 and then the hose (accessory) H can be hooked to the hook 3, and the retainer can be attached to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 without interference from the hose (accessory) H. In addition, since the retainer 1 of the first embodiment has a retaining portion which is the hook 3, the retainer 1 can be attached to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 and then the hose (accessory) H can be hooked to the hook 3, and the hose (accessory) H can be inserted into the hook 3 and then the retainer 1 can be attached to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, improving the freedom of selection of the attachment order.
[0059] The retainer 1 of the first embodiment is configured to include a pair of side pieces 2a, 2b that abut the outdoor side from the center of the direction in which the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 penetrates from the indoor to the outdoor side, and a bottom piece 2c that connects the side pieces 2a, 2b and abuts the indoor end of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1. According to the retainer 1 configured in this manner, since it includes a pair of side pieces 2a, 2b and a bottom piece 2c, it can be attached to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 from the indoor side, and can stably hold the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 even if the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 has a circular cross section.
[0060] Furthermore, when the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b are connected to the bottom piece 2c in a position tilted toward each other, and the opening width L1 between the tips 2a1, 2b1 of the side pieces 2a, 2b is less than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, the pair of side pieces 2a, 2b and the bottom piece 2c can clamp the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 at three points: two points above the center in the direction penetrating from the indoors to the outdoors and the inside end of the room, thereby firmly gripping the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 and preventing it from falling off the arch pipe (pipe material) P1.
[0061] Furthermore, the tip of the hook 3 in the holder 1 of the first embodiment has a curved surface 3d that curves in a direction away from the gripping portion 2, so that when the hose (accessory) H is inserted into the hook 3, the hose (accessory) H can be smoothly inserted into the hook 3.
[0062] Furthermore, since the gripping portion 2 and hook 3 in the holder 1 of the first embodiment are formed from a single wire, the holder 1 can be easily and inexpensively manufactured. Furthermore, since the holder 1 of the first embodiment has the gripping portion 2 and hook 3 formed by bending a single wire as described above, no sharp corners are formed at the connection portion between the bottom piece 2c and side piece 2a of the holder 2 that faces the tip of the hook 3, and therefore the hose (accessory) H can be inserted into the hook 3 without being damaged.
[0063] In the first embodiment, the holder 1 has a curved portion 3c at the tip of the hook 3 which is formed by bending and molding a wire rod, so that even if the holder 1 is formed from a single wire rod, an operator can easily attach the holder 1 to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 by pinching the curved portion 3c.
[0064] Furthermore, in the holder 1 of the first embodiment, the accessory part is a hose H connected to a collector C that collects water condensed on the indoor side of the sheets S1, S2, and the opening width (distance) L4 between the tip of the hook 3 and the gripping portion 2 is less than the outer diameter of the hose H, so that when the hook 3 hooks and holds the hose H, the hose H can be prevented from falling off the hook 3.
[0065] Furthermore, in the holder 1 of the first embodiment, the maximum distance L5 between the inner circumference of the hook 3 and the outer circumference of the bottom piece 2c is shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H, so that the hook 3 and the bottom piece 2c tighten the hose H and hold the hose H fixedly, preventing the hose H from swaying.
[0066] In the above, the pipe material is an arch pipe P1, the accessory of the simple structure is a hose H, and the details of the holder 1 are explained by showing an example in which the holder 1 fastens the hose H to the arch pipe P1. , protection The pipe material to which the support 1 is attached is not limited to the arch pipe P1 that guides the movement of the winding shaft in the ventilation device, but may be a main pipe P2 or a pipe material P3 that forms a vertical member and a horizontal member provided on the gable surface in addition to the arch pipe P1. Even The holder 1 does not form any unevenness on the room side end of the pipe materials P1, P2, P3 that may come into contact with the sheets S1, S2, and does not come into contact with the sheets S1, S2, so deterioration of the sheets S1, S2 can be prevented and hooks (holding parts) 3 for holding accessories can be easily installed on the room side of the pipe materials P1, P2, P3. The cross-sectional shape of the pipe material may be a square shape other than a circle. Also, the accessories of the simple structure are not limited to the hose H, and may be pipes or ropes that are attached to the simple structure as needed, wiring that supplies power to electrical appliances installed in the simple structure, etc.
[0067] In addition, the gripping portion 2 is designed to abut the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 with the bottom piece 2c in addition to the side pieces 2a and 2b, so as to be able to stably grip the arch pipe P1. However, it is also possible to grip the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 with only the side pieces 2a and 2b, without abutting the bottom piece 2c against the arch pipe (pipe material) P1.
[0068] In the above description, the holder 1 is formed from a single wire, but it may be formed by processing a metal plate or from a synthetic resin. When processing a metal plate, for example, a rectangular metal plate is cut and processed so that both sides of the cut are curved with different curvatures to form an arc-shaped gripping portion 2 and hook (holding portion) 3 to obtain the holder 1.
[0069] When manufacturing the holder from synthetic resin, as in the holder 11 of the first modified example of the first embodiment shown in Fig. 9, the gripping portion 12 for gripping the arch pipe P1 may be formed in a C-shape, and the hook 13 as a holding portion may be molded integrally with the gripping portion 12. The holder 11 is molded by injecting synthetic resin into a mold that integrally molds the gripping portion 12 and the hook 13.
[0070] The opening width of the tip of the gripping portion 12 is narrower than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1, and the inner diameter of the gripping portion 12 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1. Therefore, when the gripping portion 12 is attached to the outer periphery of the arch pipe P1, the gripping portion 12 exerts a resilient force to grip the arch pipe P1 from the side and tighten it, so that it is firmly attached to the arch pipe P1. In addition, the height from the lower end of the inner circumference of the gripping portion 12 to the tip of the gripping portion 12 is higher than half the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1 and lower than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1, and in a state where the gripping portion 12 grips the arch pipe P1, the tip of the gripping portion 12 is disposed on the indoor side of the outdoor end of the arch pipe P1 and does not protrude to the outdoor side of the arch pipe P1. Therefore, even if the holder 11 is attached to the arch pipe P1, the holder 11 does not interfere with the opening and closing sheet S2, so that the opening and closing sheet S2 is not deteriorated.
[0071] As shown in Fig. 9, the holder 11 may be provided with a metal C-shaped spring 14 to increase the gripping force of the gripping portion 12. The holder 11 provided with the spring 14 can be attached more firmly to the arch pipe P1, since the gripping force for gripping the arch pipe P1 can be increased even if the holder 11 is made of synthetic resin. The axial width of the gripping portion 12 is made wider than the axial width of the hook 13 in order to attach the spring 14, but if the spring 14 is not necessary, the widths of the two may be the same.
[0072] The hook 13 is molded into a J-shape with its base end connected to the right side of the gripping portion 12 in FIG. 9 and extending downward in FIG. 9. The tip of the hook 13 is provided with a curved surface 13a, which allows the hose H to be smoothly inserted into the hook 13 and prevents the hose H from being damaged. The opening width (distance) between the tip of the hook 13 and the gripping portion 12 is shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H, so that when the hook 13 hooks and holds the hose H, the hose H can be prevented from falling off the hook 13. Also, if the maximum distance between the inner circumference of the hook 13 and the outer circumference of the gripping portion 12 is set shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H, the hose H can be tightly held between the hook 13 and the gripping portion 12 to prevent the hose H from wobbling, similar to the holder 1.
[0073] In addition, when the holder is manufactured from synthetic resin, as in the holder 21 of the second modified example of the first embodiment shown in Fig. 10, the gripping portion 22 for gripping the arch pipe P1 may be formed in a C-shape, and a C-shaped hook 23 may be integrally molded as a holding portion on the gripping portion 22. The holder 21 is molded by injecting synthetic resin into a mold that integrally molds the gripping portion 22 and the hook 23.
[0074] The opening width of the tip of the gripping portion 22 is narrower than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1, and the inner diameter of the gripping portion 22 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1. Therefore, when the gripping portion 22 is attached to the outer periphery of the arch pipe P1, the gripping portion 22 exerts a resilient force to grip the arch pipe P1 from the side and tighten it, so that it is firmly attached to the arch pipe P1. In addition, the height from the lower end of the inner circumference of the gripping portion 22 to the tip of the gripping portion 22 is higher than half the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1 and lower than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1, so that when the gripping portion 22 grips the arch pipe P1, the tip of the gripping portion 22 is located on the indoor side of the outdoor end of the arch pipe P1 and does not protrude to the outdoor side of the arch pipe P1. Therefore, even if the holder 11 is attached to the arch pipe P1, the holder 21 does not interfere with the opening and closing sheet S2, so that the opening and closing sheet S2 is not deteriorated.
[0075] The hook 23 is C-shaped, and its base end is connected to the lower end of the gripping portion 22 in FIG. 10. The tip of the hook 23 is provided with a curved surface 23a, which allows the hose H to be smoothly inserted into the hook 23 and prevents the hose H from being damaged. The opening width (distance) between the tip of the hook 23 and the gripping portion 22 is shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H, so that when the hook 23 hooks and holds the hose H, the hose H can be prevented from falling off the hook 23. Furthermore, if the inner diameter of the hook 23 is made shorter than the outer diameter of the hose H, the hook 23 can tighten the hose H to hold the hose H firmly, preventing the hose H from wobbling.
[0076] <Second embodiment> Next, a holder 31 according to a second embodiment will be described. As shown in Fig. 11 and Fig. 12, the holder 31 according to the second embodiment includes a gripping portion 32 that grips the arch pipe P1 from the side, and a C-shaped holder 35 that is connected to the gripping portion 32 and holds the hose H.
[0077] The holding portion 35 is C-shaped, has an opening width (distance) L6 narrower than the outer diameter of the hose H, and has an inner diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the hose H, so that it can be inserted inside and hold the hose H tightly.
[0078] The gripping portion 32 is configured with gripping pieces 33, 34 of the same shape that extend from both ends of a C-shaped holding portion 35 and face each other. The gripping pieces 33, 34 include straight portions 33a, 34a that rise vertically from both ends of the holding portion 35, a pair of arc-shaped arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b that extend from the straight portions 33a, 34a and face each other with their inner faces facing each other, and bent portions 33c, 34c that curve from the tips of the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b toward the outside of the gripping portion 32.
[0079] The arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b have their inner surfaces facing each other, and the maximum width between the opposing inner surfaces of the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b in the left-right direction in Fig. 11 is less than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1. In addition, the distance between the tips of the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b, that is, the opening width of the grip portion 32, is also less than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe P1.
[0080] To attach the holder 31 to the arch pipe P1, first, the hose H is inserted into the holder 35. The hose H is inserted into the gripping pieces 33, 34 from the opening of the gripping portion 32, and then is inserted into the holder 35 by being pushed downward within the holder 31. When the hose H is inserted into the holder 35, it is held tightly by the holder 35, and the opening width (distance) L6 of the holder 35 is narrower than the outer diameter of the hose H, so that the hose H is prevented from slipping out of the holder 35.
[0081] Next, when the gripping pieces 33, 34 of the gripping portion 32 are pressed against the arch pipe P1 toward the outside of the room while the gripping pieces 33, 34 are in contact with the indoor side of the arch pipe P1, the holding portion 35 is deformed so as to expand in diameter, the tips of the gripping pieces 33, 34 are separated from each other, and the arch pipe P1 is pushed into the gripping pieces 33, 34. When the arch pipe P1 is inserted into the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b of the gripping pieces 33, 34, the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b grip the sides of the arch pipe P1 while tightening them with the elastic force generated by the deformation of the holding portion 35. Since the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b are arc-shaped, they grip the sides of the outer periphery of the arch pipe P1 in a manner that wraps around them, so the holder 31 can be attached to the arch pipe P1 without rattling.
[0082] In this way, the holder 31 can be attached to the arch pipe P1 while holding the hose H with the holding portion 35, thereby binding the hose H to the arch pipe P1. In addition, the tip (upper end in FIG. 11) of the arc-shaped portion 33b, 34b, which is the outdoor end of the gripping portion 32, is positioned indoors relative to the outdoor end of the arch pipe P1 when the arch pipe P1 is gripped by the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b of the gripping pieces 33, 34. The tip position of the gripping portion 32 can be set by the length of the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b, and can be set so that the tip of the arc-shaped portion 33b, 34b is positioned indoors relative to the outdoor end of the arch pipe P1 when the arch pipe P1 is gripped by the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b.
[0083] In addition, since the holder 31 in this embodiment has curved bent portions 33c, 34c at the tips of the gripping pieces 33, 34, no sharp corners are formed at the tips of the gripping pieces 33, 34, there is no risk of damaging the arch pipe P1 and the hose H when inserting them into the holder 31.
[0084] The second embodiment of the holder 31 configured in this manner comprises a gripping portion 32 that grips the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 from the side in a vinyl greenhouse (simple structure) G which has a framework B formed by combining a plurality of arch pipes (pipe material) P1 and sheets S1, S2 fixed to the outer surface of the framework B and which forms a chamber R inside, and a holding portion 35 that is connected to the gripping portion 32 and holds a hose (accessory part) H attached to the vinyl greenhouse (simple structure) G, and when the gripping portion 32 grips the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, the outdoor end of the gripping portion 32 is positioned inside the room relative to the outdoor end of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1.
[0085] In the holder 31 configured in this manner, the gripping portion 32 grips the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 from the side, and in a state where the gripping portion 32 grips the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, the outdoor end of the gripping portion 32 does not protrude to the outdoor side at the same level as the outdoor end b of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 or beyond the outdoor end b of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1. Therefore, according to the holder 31 of this embodiment, the gripping portion 32 does not come into contact with the opening and closing sheet S2 covering the arch pipe (pipe material) P1. In other words, even if the hose (accessory) H is bound to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 using the holder 31 of the second embodiment, it does not move on the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 or interfere with the opening and closing sheet S2 covering the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, so the opening and closing sheet S2 is not deteriorated.
[0086] In addition, after the hose H is attached to the holding portion 35 of the holder 31, the holder 31 is pressed from inside the room and attached to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, thereby completing the binding of the hose (accessory part) H to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1.
[0087] As described above, according to the holder 31 of the second embodiment, the sheet S2 can be easily bound to the arch pipe (pipe material) P1 of the hose (accessory) H of the vinyl greenhouse (simple structure) G without deterioration of the sheet S2.
[0088] Moreover, the holder 31 of the second embodiment includes a gripping portion 32 and a C-shaped holding portion 35, and the gripping portion 32 includes gripping pieces 33, 34 extending from both ends of the holding portion 35 and facing each other. The holder 31 thus configured has a simple structure and a simple shape, and is therefore easy to manufacture and can be manufactured at low cost. Furthermore, when the holder 31 is formed by bending a single metal plate, it can be manufactured at even lower cost.
[0089] Furthermore, in the holder 31 of the second embodiment, the gripping pieces 33, 34 have straight portions 33a, 34a rising from both ends of the holder 35, and arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b extending from the straight portions 33a, 34a and facing each other. According to the holder 31 configured in this manner, since the gripping pieces 33, 34 have the straight portions 33a, 34a and the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b, the arch pipe P1 is gripped by the arc-shaped portions 33b, 34b, and the hose H is held by the holder 35, while the arch pipe P1 and the hose H are separated by the straight portions 33a, 34a so that they do not come into contact with each other. This prevents the hose H from coming into contact with the arch pipe P1 and wearing the hose H. The straight portions 33a, 34a can be changed in shape as long as they can prevent contact between the hose H held by the holder 31 and the arch pipe P1 held by the gripping portion 32, but by making the straight portions 33a, 34a straight, the material of the holder 31 can be minimized and manufacturing costs can be reduced. In the holder 31 of this embodiment, the opening width L6 between the tips of the gripping pieces 33, 34 is shorter than the outer diameter φ of the arch pipe (pipe material) P1, so that the holder 31 can be prevented from falling off the arch pipe (pipe material) P1.
[0090] Moreover, since the holding portion 35 is C-shaped and the inner diameter of the holding portion 35 is set to be smaller than the outer diameter of the hose H, the holder 31 can tighten the hose H to fixedly grip the hose H and prevent the hose H from wobbling. Furthermore, since the holding portion 35 is C-shaped and the opening width (distance) L6 of the holding portion 35 is smaller than the outer diameter of the hose H, the hose H can be prevented from slipping out of the holding portion 35.
[0091] The holder 31 of the second embodiment can be applied to a pipe material having a circular cross section, and the pipe material to which the holder 31 is attached is not limited to the arch pipe P1 that guides the movement of the winding shaft in the ventilation device, but may be a main pipe P2 or a pipe material P3 that forms a vertical member and a horizontal member provided on the gable surface other than the arch pipe P1. Even The retainer 31 does not form irregularities on the outer surface of the pipe materials P1, P2, P3 that may come into contact with the sheets S1, S2, and does not come into contact with the sheets S1, S2, so deterioration of the sheets S1, S2 can be prevented and the retainer 35 that holds the accessories can be easily installed on the indoor side of the pipe materials P1, P2, P3. Also, the accessories of the simple structure are not limited to the hose H, and may be pipes, ropes, etc. that are attached to the simple structure as needed.
[0092] Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, modifications, variations, and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the claims. [Explanation of symbols]
