[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a parasol fastener. [Background technology]

[0002] In outdoor work such as wiring, connection, and measurement work in a wiring board or a switchboard installed outdoors, and work performed while riding in the bucket of an aerial work vehicle, it is necessary to provide an environment that protects workers from rain and direct sunlight and allows them to work smoothly. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technology that provides a work environment in which workers can smoothly perform elevated work without being exposed to rain even when it is raining, by providing a bucket tent including a parasol-shaped upper hood so as to cover the space above the bucket of an aerial work vehicle. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2001-031380 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, the technique described in Patent Document 1 may not ensure sufficient stability of the bucket tent that is attached to the bucket by the fastening mechanism (parasol fixing device). Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to provide a parasol fixing device that can stably fix a parasol to a housing such as a wiring board, a distribution board, or a bucket, in order to protect workers working outdoors from rain and direct sunlight. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The present invention has been made to solve at least some of the problems described above, and can be realized in the following aspects or application examples.

[0006] [Application example 1] The parasol fixing device of this application example is a parasol fixing device that supports a parasol and is fixed to a housing, and comprises a first support member into which a parasol pole is inserted to support the parasol, a second support member into which the pole is inserted to support the parasol, a fall prevention member that prevents the parasol from falling, a base member to which the first support member, the second support member, and the fall prevention member are attached, and a first housing fixing member that sandwiches the housing between the base member and fixes the base member to the housing, the first housing fixing member being attached to an end of the base member, and the first support member, the second support member, and the fall prevention member are attached to the base member in order of proximity to the first housing fixing member. The parasol fixing device according to this application example includes a base member to which a parasol pole is inserted and to which a first support member and a second support member that are two support members for supporting the inserted parasol are attached, so that the parasol can be stably supported. In addition, the parasol fixing device includes a first housing fixing member that sandwiches the housing between the base member and the first housing fixing member, so that the parasol fixing device can be stably fixed to various housings of different thicknesses. In addition, the parasol fixing device has the first support member, the second support member, and the fall prevention member attached to the base member in the order of proximity to the first housing fixing member, so that even if an external stress is applied to the parasol supported by the first support member and the second support member, the parasol fixing device can be prevented from falling. Furthermore, since the parasol fixing device is fixed to the housing by the first housing fixing member attached to one end of the base member, the fixing to the housing is stable due to its own weight. Therefore, the parasol fixing device can prevent workers working outdoors from being exposed to rain or other elements. It can provide more stable support for parasols to protect against direct sunlight.

[0007] [Application example 2] In the parasol fixing device of the above application example, the first support member and the second support member may be detachable from the base member, the base member may have a first mounting position, a second mounting position, and a third mounting position in order of proximity to the first housing fixing member, the first support member may be attachable to the first mounting position or the second mounting position, and the second support member may be attachable to the second mounting position or the third mounting position. According to the parasol fixing device of this application example, the attachment positions of the first support member and the second support member to the base member can be changed according to the type of parasol to be supported, so that various types of parasols can be stably supported. Also, according to the parasol fixing device of this application example, the attachment positions of the first support member and the second support member to the base member can be appropriately changed, so that the height of the parasol to be supported can be changed. This makes it possible to support the parasol at an optimal position according to the working environment of the worker, and provides a better working environment for the worker.

[0008] [Application example 3] The parasol fixing device according to the above application example may further include a second housing fixing member attached to the end of the base member, sandwiching the housing between the base member and the second housing fixing member, and fixing the base member to the housing. According to this application example, the first housing fixing member and the second housing fixing member sandwich the housing between the base member, thereby enabling the parasol fixing device to be more firmly fixed to the housing, thereby further improving the stability of the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device.

[0009] [Application example 4] In the parasol fixing device according to the above application example, a through hole to which a carabiner can be attached may be formed at the end of the base member. According to this application example, a carabiner attached to the through hole can be used to easily attach a wire or rope to prevent the parasol fixing device from falling, thereby preventing the parasol fixing device from falling from the housing.

[0010] [Application example 5] In the parasol fastener according to the above application example, a rubber may be attached to a portion of the base member that comes into contact with the housing. According to this application example, the frictional resistance between the base member and the housing can be increased by using rubber, thereby preventing the parasol fixing device from falling out of the housing and further improving the stability of the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device.

[0011] [Application Example 6] In the parasol fastener according to the above application example, a rubber may be attached to a portion of the first support member that comes into contact with the pole, and a portion of the second support member that comes into contact with the pole. According to the parasol fixing device of this application example, the rubber can increase the frictional resistance between the first and second support members and the parasol pole, thereby preventing the parasol from falling off and further improving the stability of the supported parasol.

[0012] [Application Example 7] In the parasol fastener according to the above application example, the base member may have an opening, and the first support member and the second support member may be attached to the base member so as to straddle the opening. According to this application example, since the base member has an opening, the weight of the base member can be reduced, and the parasol fastener can be attached to the housing smoothly. Furthermore, since the first support member and the second support member are attached to the base member so as to straddle the opening, the necessary strength can be ensured even if the opening is formed in the base member. In other words, according to this application example, it is possible to achieve both weight reduction and strength of the parasol fastener. [Brief description of the drawings]

Furthermore, not all of the configurations described below are necessarily essential components of the present invention.

[0015] In addition, in this embodiment, the description will be given using the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis which are orthogonal to each other. In this case, the starting points of the arrows indicating the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis are called the -X side, -Y side, and -Z side, respectively, the tip sides of the arrows are called the +X side, +Y side, and +Z side, respectively, the plane formed by the X-axis and Y-axis is called the XY plane, the plane formed by the X-axis and Z-axis is called the XZ plane, and the plane formed by the Y-axis and Z-axis is called the YZ plane.

[0016] 1. Structure of the parasol attachment FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the structure of the parasol fastener 1 when viewed from the +Y side. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the structure of the parasol fastener 1 when viewed from the -X side. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the structure of the parasol fastener 1 when viewed from the -Y side. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the structure of the parasol fastener 1 when viewed from the -Z side. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the parasol fastener 1 comprises a base member 2, a first housing fastening member 3a, a second housing fastening member 3b, a first supporting member 4a, a second supporting member 4b, and a fall prevention member 5.

[0017] The base member 2 includes a base member main body 22, a housing holding part 24, a fall prevention tool attachment part 26, and base member reinforcement parts 28a, 28b. The base member 2 of this embodiment is formed from a single metal plate. Specifically, the base member main body 22, the housing holding part 24, the fall prevention tool attachment part 26, and the base member reinforcement parts 28a, 28b included in the base member 2 are formed by bending a single metal plate cut into a predetermined shape. As the material for such a base member 2, various metal plates such as iron, aluminum, and stainless steel can be used, but it is particularly preferable that the base member 2 is made of stainless steel. This prevents the occurrence of rust and the like on the base member 2 used outdoors, ensures sufficient strength to stably support the parasol, and allows the parasol fixing device 1 to be lightweight, making it possible to smoothly attach the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing. The base member main body 22, the housing holding portion 24, the fall prevention device mounting portion 26, and the base member reinforcing portions 28a, 28b may be attached to one another by welding or the like.

[0018] The base member body 22 extends in the XZ plane and has a generally rectangular shape with its short sides aligned along the X-axis and its long sides aligned along the Z-axis. An oval-shaped opening 20 is formed in the approximate center of the base member body 22. Specifically, the opening 20 is formed in the approximate center of the base member body 22 such that its short side direction is aligned along the X-axis and its long side direction is aligned along the Z-axis. That is, the base member 2 has an opening 20 formed from the end on the -Z side toward the end on the +Z side.

[0019] The housing holding portion 24 is located at the end on the -Z side of the base member main body 22, and extends in the XY plane. Such a housing holding portion 24 is formed by bending the end on the -Z side of the base member main body 22 to the -Y side.

[0020] The fall prevention tool attachment part 26 is located at the end of the -Y side of the housing holding part 24 and extends in the XZ plane. Such a fall prevention tool attachment part 26 is formed by bending the end of the -Y side of the housing holding part 24 to the +Z side. In addition, through holes 261a and 261b are formed in the fall prevention tool attachment part 26. The through hole 261a is formed near the end of the -X side of the fall prevention tool attachment part 26. The through hole 261b is formed near the end of the +X side of the fall prevention tool attachment part 26. A carabiner to which a wire or rope is attached for preventing the parasol fixing device 1 from falling is inserted into the through holes 261a and 261b. That is, the fall prevention tool attachment part 26 located at the end of the +Z side of the base member 2 has the through holes 261a and 261b to which the carabiner can be attached. This prevents the parasol fixing device 1 from falling from the housing. The number of through holes provided in the fall prevention device attachment portion 26 is not limited to two, that is, the through holes 261a and 261b, but may be either one of the through holes 261a and 261b, or may be three or more.

[0021] The base member reinforcing portion 28a is formed by bending the end portion on the -X side of the base member main body 22 to the -Y side, and then further bending it to the +X side. The base member reinforcing portion 28b is formed by bending the end portion on the +X side of the base member main body 22 to the -Y side, and then further bending it to the -X side. This makes it possible to increase the strength of the base member main body 22 even when a thin metal plate is used as the base member main body 22. As a result, the risk of the base member 2 being deformed by the weight of the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device 1 is reduced, the stability of the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device 1 is improved, and the weight of the base member 2 can be reduced, making it possible to more smoothly attach the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing.

[0022] In addition, a plurality of rubber legs 6a (five in this embodiment) are attached to the base member reinforcement portion 28a, and a plurality of rubber legs 6b (five in this embodiment) are attached to the base member reinforcement portion 28b. The plurality of rubber legs 6a and the plurality of rubber legs 6b come into contact with the housing when the parasol fixing device 1 is fixed to the housing. That is, the rubber legs 6a, 6b made mainly of rubber are attached to the portion of the base member 2 that comes into contact with the housing. This prevents the housing from being damaged by the parasol fixing device 1 when the parasol fixing device 1 is fixed to the housing, and reduces the risk of the parasol fixing device 1 coming off the housing even if a force such as wind is applied to the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device 1. Therefore, the parasol fixing device 1 can hold the parasol more stably.

[0023] To the base member 2 configured as above, the first housing fixing member 3a, the second housing fixing member 3b, the first supporting member 4a, the second supporting member 4b, and the drop prevention member 5 are attached.

[0024] The first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b are attached to the end of the base member 2 on the -Z side. Specifically, the first housing fixing member 3a is attached to the end of the base member 2 on the -Z side. The second housing fixing member 3b is an end portion on the -Z side of the base member 2 and is attached to the +X side of the housing holding portion 24 with a fixing screw (not shown) or the like. The second housing fixing member 3b is an end portion on the -Z side of the base member 2 and is attached to the +X side of the housing holding portion 24 with a fixing screw (not shown) or the like. The first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b sandwich the housing between themselves and the base member 2, thereby fixing the base member 2 to the housing. Here, the parasol fixing device 1 may be configured to fix the base member 2 to the housing using only the first housing fixing member 3a or the second housing fixing member 3b, but as shown in this embodiment, it is preferable to fix the base member 2 to the housing using both the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. This further reduces the risk that the parasol fixing device 1 will come off the housing, and the parasol fixing device 1 can hold the parasol more stably. At this time, the base member 2 is fixed to the housing by the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b attached to the -Z side end of the base member 2, so that the fixing to the housing is stabilized by its own weight.

[0025] The first support member 4a and the second support member 4b are attached to the +Y side surface of the base member main body 22 on the +Z side of the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. The first support member 4a and the second support member 4b support the parasol by inserting the parasol pole supported by the parasol fixing device 1. Specifically, the first support member 4a has an end on the -X side attached to the base member main body 22 by a fixing screw or the like (not shown) on the -X side of the opening 20, and an end on the +X side attached to the base member main body 22 by a fixing screw or the like (not shown) on the +X side of the opening 20. The second support member 4b is located on the +Z side of the first support member 4a, an end on the -X side attached to the base member main body 22 by a fixing screw or the like (not shown) on the -X side of the opening 20, and an end on the +X side attached to the base member main body 22 by a fixing screw or the like (not shown) on the +X side of the opening 20. That is, the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b are attached to the +Y side surface of the base member main body 22 so as to extend in a substantially straight line from the -Z side to the +Z side along the Z axis and straddle the opening 20. Then, the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b support the parasol by inserting the pole of the parasol through both the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b.

[0026] As described above, the base member 2 of this embodiment has the opening 20 formed from the end on the -Z side toward the end on the +Z side. This allows the base member 2 to be made lighter, and the work of attaching the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing can be performed smoothly. At this time, the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b are attached to the surface on the +Y side of the base member main body 22 of the base member 2 so as to straddle the opening 20, so that the strength of the base member 2 can be ensured even when the base member 2 has the opening 20. In other words, the parasol fixing device 1 of this embodiment can achieve both weight reduction and strength of the parasol fixing device 1.

[0027] The fall prevention member 5 is attached to the +Y side surface of the base member main body 22 on the +Z side of the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b. That is, the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5 are attached to the base member 2 in the order of proximity from the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. Such a fall prevention member 5 prevents the parasol from falling. Specifically, the fall prevention member 5 has a base member fixing plate 52 and a fall prevention plate 54. The base member fixing plate 52 is fixed to the base member main body 22 by a fixing screw or the like. The fall prevention plate 54 is configured integrally with the base member fixing plate 52 and extends in the XY plane. That is, the fall prevention plate 54 is provided so as to block the insertion direction of the parasol pole inserted through the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b. Such fall prevention member 5 is located on the +Z side of first support member 4a and second support member 4b, so that the parasol is prevented from falling even when the first support member 4a and second support member 4b do not sufficiently support the parasol or when external stress due to wind or the like is applied to the parasol supported by first support member 4a and second support member 4b. This further improves the stability of the parasol attached to parasol fixing device 1.

[0028] 2. Fixing the parasol fixture to the housing 5 is a diagram showing an example of a method for fixing the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing 10. As described above, the parasol fixing device 1 is fixed to the housing 10 by sandwiching the housing 10 between the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b and the base member 2. Here, the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b have the same configuration. Therefore, in the following explanation, only the configuration of the first housing fixing member 3a and the method for fixing the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing 10 by the first housing fixing member 3a will be explained, and the explanation of the configuration of the second housing fixing member 3b and the method for fixing the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing 10 by the second housing fixing member 3b will be omitted or simplified.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 5, the first housing fixing member 3a has a fixing part main body 30, a handle 32, a connecting shaft 34, and a support plate 36. The fixing part main body 30 has a substantially U-shaped shape when viewed from the -X side. The fixing part main body 30 contacts the +Y side surface of the base member main body 22 on the +Y side, and is fixed to the -Z side surface of the housing holding part 24 on the -Z side by a fixing screw or the like (not shown). A connecting shaft 34 that connects the handle 32 and the support plate 36 is inserted into the -Y side of the fixing part main body 30. A male screw is formed in the connecting shaft 34. A female screw corresponding to the male screw formed in the connecting shaft 34 is formed in the insertion hole of the fixing part main body 30 through which the connecting shaft 34 is inserted. When the handle 32 is rotated, the connecting shaft 34 and the support plate 36 move along the Y axis.

[0030] As shown in (a) of FIG. 5, when fixing the parasol fixing device 1 to the housing 10, the worker places the housing 10 between the support plate 36 and the base member main body 22, and hangs the housing holding part 24 of the parasol fixing device 1 on the end of the housing 10 on the +Z side. Then, the worker moves the support plate 36 to the +Y side by rotating the handle 32. Thereafter, as shown in (b) of FIG. 5, the housing 10 is fastened between the support plate 36 and the base member main body 22 of the base member 2 by the movement of the support plate 36 to the +Y side. That is, the first housing fixing member 3a sandwiches the housing 10 between itself and the base member 2, and the parasol fixing device 1 is fixed to the housing 10.

[0031] In the parasol fastener 1 configured as above, the support plate 36 moves along the Y-axis, and the housing 10 is fastened between the support plate 36 and the base member 2, thereby fastening the parasol fastener 1 to the housing 10. In this way, the parasol fastener 1 is fixed to the housing 10 regardless of the thickness of the housing 10 in the direction along the Y-axis. In other words, even if the housing 10 is, for example, a wiring board or a switchboard installed outdoors, or the bucket of a high-altitude work vehicle, the parasol fastener 1 can be stably fixed to the housing 10.

[0032] 3. Supporting the parasol with a parasol fixing device 6 is a diagram showing an example of a method of supporting a parasol by the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b. As described above, the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b support the parasol by inserting the parasol pole therein. Here, the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b have the same configuration, and in the following explanation, only the configuration of the first support member 4a and the method of supporting the parasol by the first support member 4a will be explained, and the explanation of the configuration of the second support member 4b and the method of supporting the parasol by the second support member 4b will be omitted or simplified.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 6, the first support member 4a includes a fixed plate 40, a fixed support portion 42, a movable support portion 43, a fastening screw 44, and anti-slip rubbers 45 and 46.

[0034] The fixed plate 40 is fixed to the base member main body 22 by a fixing screw (not shown) or the like. The fixed support part 42 includes a recess that opens to the +Y side, and is fixed to the fixed plate 40. The movable support part 43 is attached to the fixed support part 42 on the -X side so as to be rotatable therewith. The support part 43 is provided so as to be rotatable about a connection part with the fixed support part 42 as a rotation axis. The fastening screw 44 fastens the movable support part 43 to the fixed support part 42 on the +X side of the movable support part 43. Then, the movable support part 43 and the fixed support part 42 are fastened by the fastening screw 44, so that a support insertion hole 48 is formed between the fixed support part 42 and the movable support part 43. The non-slip rubber 45 is provided along the recess of the fixed support part 42. The non-slip rubber 46 is provided on the movable support part 43. The non-slip rubbers 45, 46 are provided along the inner circumference of the support insertion hole 48 formed between the fixed support part 42 and the movable support part 43.

[0035] As shown in (a) of FIG. 6, the worker rotates the movable support part 43 to the fixed support part 42 while the parasol pole 12 is placed against the recess of the fixed support part 42. Then, the worker fastens the movable support part 43 to the fixed support part 42 with the fastening screw 44. As a result, as shown in (b) of FIG. 6, the parasol pole 12 is inserted into the pole insertion hole 48 and is supported in a state of contact with the non-slip rubbers 45, 46. That is, the first support member 4a supports the parasol inserted into the pole insertion hole 48, and at this time, the non-slip rubbers 45, 46 are attached to the part of the first support member 4a that contacts the pole 12. As a result, the frictional resistance between the parasol pole 12 and the first support member 4a increases, and the stability of the parasol supported by the first support member 4a is further improved.

[0036] Similarly, although not shown, the second support member 4b includes a fixed plate 40, a fixed support part 42, a movable support part 43, a fastening screw 44, and non-slip rubbers 45, 46. The worker rotates the movable support part 43 to the fixed support part 42 while placing the parasol pole 12 in the recess of the fixed support part 42, and fastens it with the fastening screw 44. As a result, the parasol pole 12 is supported in the pole insertion hole 48 while contacting the non-slip rubbers 45, 46 of the second support member 4b. That is, the second support member 4b supports the parasol inserted in the pole insertion hole 48, and the non-slip rubbers 45, 46 are attached to the part of the second support member 4b that contacts the pole 12. As a result, the frictional resistance between the parasol pole 12 and the second support member 4b is increased, and the stability of the parasol supported by the second support member 4b is further improved.

[0037] Here, in the parasol fixing device 1 of this embodiment, the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the aforementioned fall prevention member 5 are removable from the base member 2, and can be attached to different positions on the base member 2 depending on the shape of the parasol to be supported and the environment in which the parasol fixing device 1 is used.

[0038] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the mounting positions of the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5, and an example of the relationship between the mounting positions and the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5.

[0039] 7(a), the base member 2 is formed with a first mounting position 7a, a second mounting position 7b, and a third mounting position 7c at which the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b can be attached, and a fourth mounting position 8a and a fifth mounting position 8b at which the drop prevention member 5 can be attached. The first mounting position 7a, the second mounting position 7b, and the third mounting position 7c are located in the order of the first mounting position 7a, the second mounting position 7b, and the third mounting position 7c from the -Z side to the +Z side along the Z axis. That is, the base member 2 has the first mounting position 7a, the second mounting position 7b, and the third mounting position 7c in the order of proximity to the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. Each of the first mounting position 7a, the second mounting position 7b, and the third mounting position 7c has a plurality of (four in this embodiment) fixing screw insertion holes 70 through which a plurality of fixing screws for fixing the first support member 4a or the second support member 4b are inserted. The fourth mounting position 8a and the fifth mounting position 8b are located in this order along the Z axis from the -Z side to the +Z side. That is, the base member 2 is located in the order of the fourth mounting position 8a and the fifth mounting position 8b, which are closer to the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. The fourth mounting position 8a is located between the second mounting position 7b and the third mounting position 7c, and the fifth mounting position 8b is located on the +Z side of the third mounting position 7c. That is, the base member 2 has the first mounting position 7a, the second mounting position 7b, the fourth mounting position 8a, the third mounting position 7c, and the fifth mounting position 8b in the order of proximity to the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. Each of the fourth mounting position 8a and the fifth mounting position 8b has a plurality of (two in each of the present embodiment) fixing screw insertion holes 80 through which a plurality of fixing screws for fixing the fall prevention member 5 are inserted.

[0040] 7(b1)-(b3) show an example of the attachment state of the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b to the first attachment position 7a, the second attachment position 7b, and the third attachment position 7c, and an example of the attachment state of the fall prevention member 5 to the fourth attachment position 8a and the fifth attachment position 8b. In the first attachment state shown in FIG. 7(b1), the first support member 4a is attached to the first attachment position 7a, the second support member 4b is attached to the third attachment position 7c, and the fall prevention member 5 is attached to the fifth attachment position 8b. In the second attachment state shown in FIG. 7(b2), the first support member 4a is attached to the second attachment position 7b, the second support member 4b is attached to the third attachment position 7c, and the fall prevention member 5 is attached to the fifth attachment position 8b. 7(b3), the first support member 4a is attached to the first attachment position 7a, the second support member 4b is attached to the second attachment position 7b, and the fall prevention member 5 is attached to the fourth attachment position 8a. That is, the first support member 4a can be attached to the first attachment position 7a or the second attachment position 7b, the second support member 4b can be attached to the second attachment position 7b or the third attachment position 7c, and the fall prevention member 5 can be attached to the fourth attachment position 8a or the fifth attachment position 8b.

[0041] The first mounting state and the second mounting state are different in that the first support member 4a is attached to the first mounting position 7a or the second mounting position 7b. As a result, even if the specifications of the center of gravity of the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device 1 and the size of the support pole of the parasol are different, the parasol can be supported at the optimal position according to the specifications of the parasol. In other words, the parasol fixing device 1 can stably hold parasols of different specifications. Furthermore, the first mounting state and the second mounting state are different from the third mounting state in that the fall prevention member 5 is attached to the fourth mounting position 8a or the fifth mounting position 8b. As a result, even if the length of the support pole of the parasol supported by the parasol fixing device 1 is different, it is possible to support the parasol at the optimal position according to the length of the support pole of the parasol, and more types of parasols can be stably held. Furthermore, the height of the parasol to be supported can be changed by changing whether the fall prevention member 5 is attached to the fourth attachment position 8a or the fifth attachment position 8b in the first and second attachment states and the third attachment state. This allows the parasol to be fixed in an optimal position according to the worker's work environment, providing a better work environment for the worker.

[0042] 4. How to use the parasol fixing device An example of a usage mode of the parasol fastener 1 described above will be described. Figures 8 and 9 are diagrams showing an example of a usage mode of the parasol fastener 1 when an operator performs work such as wiring, connection, and measurement in a wiring board including a cabinet 100 as an example of the housing 10. Here, Figure 8 illustrates an example in which the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5 are attached to the base member 2 in the above-mentioned first attachment state, and Figure 9 illustrates an example in which the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5 are attached to the base member 2 in the above-mentioned third attachment state.

[0043] Various instruments, switches, relays, etc. that make up the wiring board are provided inside the cabinet body 110 of the cabinet 100. When performing work such as connection and measurement, the worker performs the work with the door 120 attached to the cabinet main body 110 open so as to be able to open and close. The parasol fixing device 1 is fixed to the cabinet 100 including the door 120 by sandwiching the opened door 120 between the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b and the base member 2. Then, the parasol fixing device 1 supports the parasol 200 by inserting the support pole 220 of the parasol 200 into the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b of the parasol fixing device 1 fixed to the door 120 of the cabinet 100. Then, the main body 210 of the parasol 200 supported by the parasol fixing device 1 blocks rain and direct sunlight from the worker, protecting the worker from rain and direct sunlight. This reduces the risk that the worker working on the wiring board will be exposed to rain and direct sunlight, and provides a working environment in which the worker can work smoothly. At this time, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the height of the supported parasol 200 can be changed by changing the mounting state of the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5. This makes it possible to provide a work environment more suitable for the worker.

[0044] Here, in Figures 8 and 9, a wiring board cabinet 100 has been used as an example of the housing 10 to which the parasol fixing device 1 is fixed, but the housing 10 is not limited to the wiring board cabinet 100 and may be, for example, a distribution board cabinet or a bucket of a high-altitude work vehicle.

[0045] 5. Effects The parasol fastener 1 of the present embodiment configured as described above includes the base member 2 to which the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b, which are two support members into which the parasol pole is inserted, are attached, and thus can stably support a parasol to reduce the risk of a worker working outdoors being exposed to rain or direct sunlight. In addition, the parasol fastener 1 can stably fasten the parasol fastener 1 to various housings of different thicknesses by sandwiching the housing between the first housing fastener 3a and the second housing fastener 3b and fastening the parasol fastener 1 including the base member 2 to the housing. Moreover, the parasol fixing device 1 includes a fall prevention member 5 that prevents the parasol from falling, and the first support member 4a, the second support member 4b, and the fall prevention member 5 are attached to the base member 2 in the order of proximity from the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b. Even if an external stress due to wind or the like is applied to the parasol supported by the first support member 4a and the second support member 4b, the parasol fixing device 1 can be prevented from falling from the parasol fixing device 1. Furthermore, since the parasol fixing device 1 is fixed to the housing by the first housing fixing member 3a and the second housing fixing member 3b attached to one end of the base member 2, the parasol fixing device 1 is stably fixed to the housing by its own weight and the weight of the parasol it supports. As described above, the parasol fixing device 1 of this embodiment can stably support a parasol to reduce the risk of a worker working outdoors being exposed to rain or direct sunlight.
