[Diagram 3] FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the configuration of a hanging tool fall-off prevention fitting. [Figure 4] FIG. 13 is a plan view showing how to attach the hanging tool fall prevention fitting. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0011] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the suspension fall prevention fitting 100 pulls the suspension tool 200, which is fixed to the flange portion 301 of the structural steel 300, in the direction of the flange portion 302 to prevent the suspension tool 200 from falling off. An engaging member 110 that engages with the suspension tool 200 and a clamping member 120 that clamps the flange portion 302 of the structural steel 300 are connected by a connecting member 130, thereby preventing the suspension tool 200 from falling off.

[0012] More specifically, the engaging member 110 has a pair of engaging pieces 111 and 112 each having a substantially L-shape. The engaging pieces 111 and 112 have engaging claws 111a and 112a at their tip end portions that engage with engaging holes 201a formed in side walls 201 of the suspender 200. That is, the engaging pieces 111 and 112 are adapted to sandwich the suspender 200 from both sides in a direction parallel to the edge of the flange portion 301 of the shaped steel 300, thereby causing the engaging claws 111a and 112a to engage with the engaging holes 201a of the suspender 200. There is no particular limitation on the method for forming the engaging claws 111a and 112a, but they can be easily formed by bending parts of the tip end portions of the engaging pieces 111 and 112 inwardly toward each other. Bolt holes 111b and 112b, into which male thread portion 130a formed on the end of connecting member 130 is inserted, are formed in the base side portions of engaging pieces 111 and 112. Here, bolt holes 111b and 112b are formed as elongated holes, so that engaging claws 111a and 112a of engaging pieces 111 and 112 can swing relative to connecting member 130 from a closed state as shown in Figure 4(a) to an open state on both sides of side wall 201 of suspender 200 as shown in Figure 4(b).

[0013] A nut 140 is screwed onto the end of the connecting member 130, and when the connecting member 130 is pulled toward the flange portion 302 of the shaped steel 300, the tip portions of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 close as shown in Fig. 4(c), and the engagement claws 111a and 112a engage with the engagement holes 201a of the side wall 201, and the side wall 201 is pulled toward the flange portion 302 to prevent it from falling off. In addition, a crimped portion 160 is provided on the flange portion 302 side of the base portion of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 in 130 via a compression coil spring 170. The base portion of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 are biased by the compression coil spring 170 so that they come into close contact with each other, and the tip portions of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 are biased so that they close even when no force is applied by the connecting member 130 to pull them toward the flange portion 302.

[0014] On the other hand, the clamping member 120 has, for example, a side wall portion 121 in which a clamping recess 121a is formed in which the flange portion 302 of the shaped steel 300 is clamped, and a connecting wall portion 122 in which a bolt hole 122a is formed. A male screw portion 130b formed on an end portion of the connecting member 130 opposite to the side on which the engaging member 110 is provided is inserted into the bolt hole 122a, and a nut 150 is screwed into the male screw portion 130b, whereby the engaging member 110 and the clamping member 120 are connected to each other and the engaging member 110 is drawn toward the flange portion 302 of the shaped steel 300.

[0015] As described above, by retracting the base side portions of a pair of approximately L-shaped engagement pieces 111 and 112 using connecting member 130, engagement pieces 111 and 112 clamp suspender 200, engaging engagement claws 111a and 112a of engagement pieces 111 and 112 with engagement holes 201a of suspender 200, and connecting engagement member 110 and clamping member 120, thereby preventing suspender 200 from falling off.

[0016] In addition, the compression coil spring 170 urges the base side portions of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 to come into close contact with each other and urges the tip portions of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 to close toward each other, making it easy to reliably engage the engagement claws 111a and 112a of the engagement pieces 111 and 112 with the engagement holes 201a, while the engagement pieces 111 and 112 can be opened against the urging force of the compression coil spring 170, making it easy to attach the anti-fall-off fitting 100.

[0017] In addition, by inserting connecting member 130 through bolt holes 111b and 112b formed as elongated holes in the base side portions of engaging pieces 111 and 112, both engaging pieces 111 and 112 can be made swingable, which makes it easy to increase the tolerance for eccentricity when attaching them to the sling 200.

[0018] In the above example, the nut 140 is screwed onto the end of the connecting member 130 on the engaging member 110 side. However, this is not limited to the above. It is sufficient that a crimping portion is provided at the end of the connecting member 130, or that a bolt head is provided to be positioned, or that a head for preventing the engaging member 110 from coming off is provided.

[0019] Also, instead of the crimped portion 160 disposed at the end of the compression coil spring 170, a nut may be screwed in, so that the urging force of the compression coil spring 170 is generated.

[0020] Furthermore, the connecting member 130 is not limited to one having a male thread formed only on the end portion, and a so-called fully threaded bolt may be used. [Explanation of symbols]
