Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a fixture structure for attaching a sensor light.

Background Art

[0002] Generally, sensor lights are installed in places where existing lighting does not reach or in necessary security areas around the house, such as entrance gates and parking lots. Since the sensor light is to be attached to a necessary location in each house, the attachment location is appropriately selected and attached to the attachment object. However, the attachment object is often a member such as a pillar or a roof eaves at the attachment location, and there may be cases where the attachment object does not exist at an accurate position at the attachment location.

[0003] In order to expand the irradiation range of the sensor light, it is possible to respond by rotating the irradiation part of the sensor light itself, but a general sensor light has an attachment part to the attachment object on the sensor light, and even if the irradiation angle is adjusted by rotating the sensor light itself, it may be difficult to appropriately adjust the irradiation range.

[0004] Also, even if the attachment object has a sensor light, there may be a need to change the irradiation range or expand the irradiation range. When the attachment object is limited, it is not possible to respond to changes or expansions of the irradiation range.

[0005] There are also those that have a separate mounting base for the sensor light as in Patent Document 1 and have a plurality of mounting means for the mounting object on the base. However, when there are limitations on the mounting object, it is not possible to respond to changes or expansions of the irradiation range and to be stably used.

[Means for solving the problem]

[0008] To solve the above problem, a fixing jig structure for fixing a sensor light to an object to be fixed is provided, The aforementioned fixing jig structure comprises a main body portion and an object fixing portion for fixing to the object to be fixed, The main body is characterized by having multiple mounting points on the main body.

[0009] Furthermore, it is preferable that the main body portion has a target fixing portion on one of its surfaces, and mounting portions on multiple surfaces other than the aforementioned one surface.

[0010] Furthermore, it has an auxiliary jig that can be attached to the main unit mounting section. Preferably, the auxiliary jig has an auxiliary fixing part for fixing the sensor light and an auxiliary mounting part for attaching to the main body mounting part of the main body.

[0011] Furthermore, the auxiliary mounting portion of the auxiliary jig is a protruding shaft, and the main body mounting portion of the main body is a shaft hole into which the auxiliary mounting portion is inserted. It is preferable that the axial directions of the shaft holes of the main body mounting portions, which are arranged on multiple surfaces, intersect each other without interfering with one another.

[0012] Furthermore, it is preferable to provide an open space around the opening surface of the main body mounting portion.

[0013] Furthermore, it is preferable that the main body mounting portion has a mounting and fixing portion that opens in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the shaft hole.

[0014] Furthermore, it is preferable that the object to be fixed is positioned between two protrusions that project outward from the upper and lower ends on the rear side of the main body which has a longitudinal direction, and that the object to be fixed located between the two protrusions is fixed with a fixing body. [Effects of the Invention]

[0015] According to the invention described in claim 1, by providing mounting parts for the main body in multiple locations, the sensor light can be mounted in multiple directions. This makes it possible to change or expand the illumination range even when the object to which it can be mounted is limited, and enables stable use.

[0016] According to the invention described in claim 2, by providing mounting parts for the main body on multiple surfaces of the main body other than the target fixing part on the back side, it becomes possible to fix multiple sensor lights at different angles with a single fixing jig, allowing for changes and expansions of the illumination range and enabling stable use.

[0017] According to the invention described in claim 3, by using an auxiliary jig, it is possible to accommodate various sensor lights, and multiple sensor lights can be fixed at different angles with a single fixing jig, allowing for changes and expansions of the illumination range and enabling stable use.

[0018] According to the invention described in claim 4, since the shaft holes are formed in intersecting directions, they do not interfere with each other, and multiple main body mounting parts can be inserted into the shaft holes to fix the sensor light. This makes it possible to fix multiple sensor lights at different angles with a single fixing jig, allowing for changes or expansion of the illumination range and enabling stable use.

[0019] According to the invention described in claim 5, by having an open space with the periphery of the opening surface being open, not only can a sensor light be provided, but also a space can be ensured to rotate the sensor light appropriately and freely change the irradiation direction. As a result, it becomes possible to fix a plurality of sensor lights at different angles with one fixing jig, enabling correspondence to changes and expansions of the irradiation range, and enabling stable use.

[0020] According to the invention described in claim 6, by having an auxiliary fixing part orthogonal to the main body mounting part, the mounting state of the main body mounting part can be fixed by a simple method. As a result, it becomes possible to fix a plurality of sensor lights at different angles with one fixing jig, enabling correspondence to changes and expansions of the irradiation range, and enabling stable use.

[0021] According to the invention described in claim 7, an object to be fixed can be fixed between two protruding parts on the back side, and the object can be fixed at a position that does not interfere with the main body mounting part. As a result, it becomes possible to fix a plurality of sensor lights at different angles with one fixing jig, enabling correspondence to changes and expansions of the irradiation range, and enabling stable use.

[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0023] Embodiments relating to the fixing jig structure for the sensor light of this invention will be described based on the drawings. The invention described below is for the purpose of facilitating understanding of the embodiment and is not intended to limit the understanding of the invention. In this description, the direction of the arrow line X-X in Figure 2 is referred to as "up" and "down", the direction of the arrow line Y-Y is referred to as "left" and "right", and the direction of the arrow line Z-Z is referred to as "front" and "back". In this description, "object to be mounted" refers to a specific object such as an awning or pillar to which the sensor light S is mounted, and "mounting location" refers to a place to mount the sensor light S, such as the entrance of a house or a parking lot.

[0024] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the fixing jig structure 1 for the sensor light according to this embodiment consists of a jig body 2, an auxiliary jig 3, and a sensor light S, and is for fixing the sensor light S to an object to be attached (not shown).

[0025] The jig body 2 will now be described. As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5, the jig body 2 consists of a main body portion 10 that extends vertically, and a target fixing portion 20 that protrudes further to the rear side from the back surface, which is one of the surfaces of the main body portion 10. The target fixing portion 20 consists of a pair of upper and lower protrusions 21 and 22 that extend in a direction opposite to the main body portion 10 which extends vertically in the side view shown in Figure 4, and a screw-shaped fixing body 23. First, the main body portion 10 will be described, and then the target fixing portion 20 will be described.

[0026] In this embodiment, the main body portion 10 has a target fixing portion 20 that protrudes from its back surface, and the main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 are provided on the front, both sides, and the flat surface. However, it is arbitrary which side is the front and which is the back surface, and it is preferable to provide the main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 on multiple surfaces that are different from the target fixing portion 20.

[0027] Furthermore, having mounting sections 11, 12, and 13 on multiple surfaces means that the sensor light S is positioned on one of the six surfaces of the jig body 2, excluding the target fixing section 20, and does not mean that the main body fixing section itself is positioned. As described later, in this embodiment, the first main body mounting section, the second main body mounting section 12, and the third main body mounting section 13 are provided on the front, but the opening surfaces 11b, 12b, and 13c are located on both sides, the plane, and the front, respectively, so that the sensor light S is positioned on both sides, the plane, and the front.

[0028] The main body portion 10 of the jig body 2 is a plate-shaped member that is long vertically, has a predetermined width horizontally, and has a predetermined thickness in the front-to-back direction. The main body portion 10 has a target fixing portion 20 on its rear side and multiple main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 on its front side.

[0029] In this embodiment, the main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 are shaft holes that can insert the shaft-shaped auxiliary mounting portion 31 provided on the auxiliary jig 3, which will be described later. In this embodiment, the auxiliary jig 3 and the jig body 2 are attached by a shaft and a shaft hole, but this is not necessarily limited to this, and it may consist of a claw-shaped engaging portion and an engaged portion, or other forms.

[0030] The shaft-hole shaped main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 of this embodiment will now be described. As shown in Figures 3 to 5, and also in Figure 6, the shaft-hole shaped main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 of this embodiment have a protruding portion 11a that extends horizontally from the main body portion 10 at the vertical center position of the main body portion 10, and a shaft hole that penetrates through the protruding portion, which is the first main body mounting portion 11; a cylindrical portion 12a that extends upward from the upper side surface of the protruding portion 11a, which is the second main body mounting portion 12 located within the cylindrical portion 12a; and a cylindrical portion 13b that is provided between a pair of plate portions 13a, 13a that hang down from the lower side of the protruding portion 11a, which is the third main body mounting portion 13 located within the cylindrical portion 13b.

[0031] More specifically, the first main body mounting portion 11 has a protruding portion 11a that extends from the front side (front surface) to the left and right ends at the vertical center position of the main body portion 10, and further protrudes to the front side (front side), and this protruding portion 11a consists of a circular shaft hole that penetrates from left to right (see Figures 7(b) and (c)). The opening surfaces 11b, 11b are located on the right and left sides of the main body portion 10. Therefore, the first main body mounting portion 11 is a mounting portion for attaching the auxiliary jig 3 and the sensor light S to the right and left sides of the main body portion 10.

[0032] Furthermore, the second main body mounting portion 12 has a cylindrical portion 12a that extends upward along the main body portion 10 from above the protruding portion 11a that protrudes further forward from the front side of the main body portion 10, and this cylindrical portion 12a has a circular shaft hole with the vertical direction as its axis (see Figures 7(a) and (b)). The opening surface 12b is a mounting portion for attaching the auxiliary jig 3 and the sensor light S to the flat surface of each face of the main body portion.

[0033] Furthermore, the third main body mounting portion 13 is a cylindrical portion 13b provided between a pair of plate portions 13a, 13a that hang downward along the main body portion 10 from below the protruding portion 11a that protrudes further forward from the front side of the main body portion 10, and this cylindrical portion 13b has a circular axial hole with the front-to-back direction as its axis. The opening surface 13c is a mounting portion on the front side of each surface of the main body portion to which the auxiliary jig 3 and the sensor light S are attached.

[0034] As shown in Figure 7, the first main body mounting portion 11 consists of a through hole that penetrates from left to right, while the second main body mounting portion 12 has its shaft hole oriented vertically but does not penetrate the protruding portion 11a. The third main body mounting portion 13 has a shaft hole oriented in the front-to-back direction and is a through hole that penetrates the main body portion 10. Therefore, the main body mounting portions 11, 12, and 13 have shaft holes with different directions (left-to-right, up-to-down, and front-to-back), but they intersect with each other and do not interfere with each other. In this embodiment, the directions are mutually orthogonal, but such intersections are not limited to orthogonal.

[0035] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 4 to 6, the first main body mounting portion 11, the second main body mounting portion 12, and the third main body mounting portion 13 are open spaces that leave open the periphery of the opening surfaces 11b, 12b, and 13c of the shaft hole. Specifically, in the front view shown in Figure 4, the first open space K1 is provided on the side of the jig body 2 beyond the opening surfaces 11b, 11b on both sides of the first main body mounting portion 11 so as not to interfere with the sensor light S. Also, the second open space K2 is provided on the planar side of the jig body 2 beyond the opening surface 12b of the second main body mounting portion 12 so as not to interfere with the sensor light S. Furthermore, the third open space K3 is provided on the front side of the jig body 2 beyond the opening surface 13c of the third main body mounting portion 13 so as not to interfere with the sensor light S.

[0036] In this configuration, the three main body mounting parts 11, 12, and 13 are formed on the jig body 2 so that their axial hole directions are perpendicular to each other, preventing interference. Furthermore, open spaces K1, K2, and K3 are formed around the opening surfaces 11b, 12b, and 13c, making it possible to fix the sensor light S in any direction. Moreover, by preparing multiple auxiliary jigs 3 and fixing the auxiliary mounting parts 31 to multiple main body mounting parts simultaneously, it is possible to attach multiple sensor lights S. The illumination range can then be expanded or changed by rotating the attached sensor light S itself.

[0037] Furthermore, the main body mounting sections 11, 12, and 13 are each formed with mounting and fixing sections 11c, 12c, and 13d for fixing the state in which the shaft-shaped auxiliary mounting section 31 is inserted through the shaft hole. The mounting and fixing sections 11c, 12c, and 13d are holes perpendicular to the axial direction of the shaft hole, and a screw-shaped auxiliary fixing device 14 can be inserted to fix the mounting state of the auxiliary mounting section inserted into the main body mounting sections 11, 12, and 13. In this embodiment, the mounting state is fixed with such a simple configuration, but it is not limited to this and other forms may be used.

[0038] The mounting fixing portion 11c is formed on the front side surface of the protruding portion 11a of the first main body mounting portion 11, the mounting fixing portion 12c is formed on the front side surface of the cylindrical portion 12a of the second main body mounting portion 12, and the mounting fixing portion 13d of the third main body mounting portion 13 is formed on the side surface of the plate portion 13a. By inserting a screw, which is an auxiliary fixing device 14, into these mounting fixing portions 11c, 12c, and 13d, the inserted auxiliary mounting portion 31 can be fixed in the inserted state. Figure 1 shows the state in which the auxiliary fixing device 14 is inserted into the mounting fixing portion 12d of the second main body mounting portion 12.

[0039] The target fixing portion 20 has an upper projection 21 that extends rearward from the upper edge of the main body portion 10 in a continuous manner, and a lower projection 22 that extends rearward from the lower end of the main body portion 10 in a continuous manner. The lower projection 22 has a threaded through-hole that penetrates vertically, and a screw-shaped fixing body 23 is provided in this through-hole.

[0040] With the object fixing part 20, the object to be fixed can be inserted between the upper projection 21 and the lower projection 22, and the fixing body 23 can be screwed in, thereby fixing the object by clamping it between the tip portion 23a of the fixing body 23 and the upper projection 21. Although the object fixing part 20 in this embodiment is as described above, other fixing parts such as pins or screws may also be used.

[0041] The upward projection 21 has a recess 21a that slopes from the front and rear when viewed from the side, above the fixing body 23. By providing such a recess 21a, it becomes possible to fix objects (not shown) that have an uneven surface or cylindrical objects such as pipes. It is also preferable that the contact surface of the tip portion 23a of the screw-shaped fixing body 23 also has a recess that slopes from the front and rear.

[0042] Furthermore, the upward projection 21 has through holes 21b, 21b that penetrate the main body 10 in the direction of projection, and it is possible to fix it to an object using screws or the like through these through holes 21b, 21b as a second object fixing part other than the object fixing part 20.

[0043] As shown in Figure 8, the auxiliary jig 3 has an auxiliary fixing part 30 at the top for fixing the sensor light S and an auxiliary mounting part 31 at the bottom. The auxiliary jig 3 consists of an upper member 3a having a spherical base end 32 and a lower member 3b having a bowl-shaped recess 33 that rotatably holds the base end 32. The base end 32 held in the recess 33 is rotatable, making it possible to change the angle of the sensor light S, which is fixed by the auxiliary fixing part 30 provided on the base end 32, to a predetermined angle. In addition, the lower member 3b has a tightening part 34 for tightening and fixing the recess 33 that holds the base end 32.

[0044] In this configuration, the auxiliary jig 3 fixes the sensor light S by joining the protruding screw-shaped auxiliary fixing part 30 located at the top with a screw-receiving fixed part (not shown) located below the sensor light S. Furthermore, the axial auxiliary mounting part 31 can be fixed to the jig body 2 by inserting it into the main body mounting parts 11, 12, and 13 described above.

[0045] This configuration makes it possible to provide a fixing jig structure 1 for a sensor light S that can accommodate changes or expansions of the illumination range, even when the object to which it can be attached is limited, and enables stable use. [Explanation of Symbols]
