Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 provides a fixture for preventing the overturning of an article shelf that can be extremely easily attached to a support column by using a through hole formed in advance in the support column without processing the support column of the shelf.

[0005] However, in this invention, since a support column is required and the through holes for screwing nuts onto bolts are only of equal width and in the vertical direction, the strength of the fixture depends on the screwing and tightening strength of the bolts and nuts.

[0006] Also, in the invention of Patent Document 2, by using various support portions and protruding ribs, furniture or the like placed indoors is fixed by an adhesive member crimped to the ribs.

[0007] However, in this invention as well, the oblong holes for driving in nails or the like are only of equal width and in the vertical direction, and an adhesive member is essential. Without firmly fixing with nails or the like, fixing cannot be achieved.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0008] In order to solve the above problems, the invention according to claim 1 is a fixture, comprising a wall installation surface having an installation hole in which a linear guide hole and a circular insertion hole are integrated, and a shelf receiving surface whose angle with the wall installation surface is a right angle. The diameter of the insertion hole is larger than the linear width of the guide hole, and the linear direction of the guide hole is provided at an angle of 30 to 50 degrees obliquely with respect to the horizontal angle of the wall installation surface.

[0009] Furthermore, the invention according to claim 7 is a connector, comprising a third connection surface having a connection groove in which a linear guide groove and an angular insertion groove are integrated. The opening width of the insertion groove is larger than the linear width of the guide groove, and the linear direction of the guide groove is provided at an angle of 30 to 50 degrees obliquely with respect to the horizontal angle of the third connection surface. The third connection surface and the connected surface can be connected by inserting a dowel provided on the connected surface into the connection groove.

Advantages of the Invention

[0010] According to claim 1, a fixture with high vibration resistance can be provided by a simple fixing method of passing the head of a fixing pin, nail, etc. through the insertion hole of the installation hole and locking it with the guide hole.

[0011] Also, according to claim 7, a connector with high vibration resistance can be provided by a simple fixing method of passing the dowel through the insertion groove of the installation groove and locking it with the guide groove.

The refrigerator R is fixed by being held by the vertical surface 2C of the fixture 2 on the side surface. By setting and using the fixture 2 with the linear direction of the guiding hole 111 provided at an angle of 30 to 50 degrees obliquely with respect to the horizontal angle of the wall W installation surface, after attaching the back surface of the refrigerator R to the wall surface W, the fixture 2 is fitted, and the fixture 2 descends from both outer sides inward and sandwiches, enabling fixation.

[0052] <Implementation Method 4> Subsequently, with reference to Fig. 14, the implementation method of the connector 6 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. Fig. 14 is an assembly diagram showing the state of assembling the doghouse D using the connector 6 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

[0053] (Step S41) As shown in FIG. 14, the installation holes 11 and 12 of the first connection surface 6A attached to the doghouse roof panel D1 and the fixing pins 81 and 82 of the second connection surface 6B attached to the upper surface of the doghouse front panel D2 are fitted together to connect the upper surfaces of the doghouse roof panel D1 and the doghouse front panel D2.

[0054] (Step S42) Similarly, the installation holes 11 and 12 of the first connection surface 6A attached to the doghouse roof panel D3 and the fixing pins 81 and 82 of the second connection surface 6B attached to the upper surface of the doghouse front panel D2 are fitted together to connect the upper surfaces of the doghouse roof panel D3 and the doghouse front panel D2. Thus, as shown in the doghouse D in the figure, the doghouse roof D1 is securely fixed by the doghouse roof D3.

[0055] By repeating Step S41 and Step S42 for each plate of the doghouse D and connecting the doghouse roofs D1 and D3 after assembly, it becomes possible to assemble the doghouse D in which each plate is securely fixed.

[0056] <Embodiment Method 5> Using FIG. 15, the implementation method of the connector 7 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 15 is an external perspective view showing a state in which the shelf board U is connected using the connector 7 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

[0057] (Step S51) As shown in the figure, the dowel 9 is fitted into the insertion groove 712 of the connector 7 attached to the four corners of the shelf board U, and the dowel 9 is pushed into the depth of the guide groove 711 to fix the shelf board U.

[0058] (Step S52) The shelf board U is also fixed to the dowel 9 on the opposite side by the same operation as in Step S51.

[0059] <Embodiment Method 6> Finally, using FIG. 16, the implementation methods of the support X, the wall rail Y, and the connector 7 according to the embodiments of the present invention will be described.
