Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a mount cap, a mount, and a mount installation method. [Background technology]

[0002] In waterproofing work on verandas, balconies, flat rooftops, etc., a viscous waterproofing material (coating material) such as liquid urethane resin is applied to the floor surface (the surface that supports objects placed on it or people standing on it) to create a waterproof layer (coating layer) such as a urethane coating. During this type of floor coating work, the outdoor unit of the air conditioning equipment, etc. placed on the floor surface that is the target of the work is elevated using a stand or the like so as not to interfere with the work or to prevent it from getting dirty.

[0003] As a stand for primarily supporting such an object, for example, a "legged stand for placing an object on top of it, comprising a base body assembled into a flat rectangular shape using a frame material and a number of legs supporting the base body, the legs being foldable and having their upper ends hinged to the base body so that when folded, the entire legs are in contact with the underside of the base body, the base body being provided with a locking mechanism for positioning the legs on the base body when the legs are extended, and pin members being provided at the lower ends of the legs, the tips of which form the tips of the legs" has been proposed (see claim 1 in Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2004-169525 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] If a stand is installed during floor coating work, objects that cannot be easily moved to another location, such as outdoor units, can be supported away from the floor surface. Meanwhile, the stand itself remains on the floor surface, with its feet touching the floor surface. The floor coating work is carried out with the feet of the stand buried in the coating layer, and the stand is removed after the coating layer has hardened. After the stand is removed, holes (footprint holes) that remain in the coating layer when the feet of the stand are removed are repaired after the work is completed. Usually, when repairing footprint holes, the raised protrusion around the edge of the hole is first gouged out, then the sloping surface and hole of the gouged mark are filled with a filler, and finally the same finish material as the top finish material of the coating layer is applied.

[0006] When removing the above-mentioned stand, it is time-consuming to pull out the legs of the stand from the hardened coating layer (paint film). After removing the above-mentioned stand, it is time-consuming to remove the coating material that has adhered to the pulled-out legs. In addition, in the repair work after removing the above-mentioned stand, the protrusions around the edges of the holes are generally removed with a cutter, but it is difficult to cut them cleanly and there is a risk that the surrounding waterproof layer will become dirty or damaged.

[0007] The above-mentioned legged stand is excellent in that the tip of the pin member is configured as the tip of the leg, so that the diameter of the footprint hole can be made small. However, it cannot be said that the problem of the application material sticking to the foot and the protrusion around the edge of the hole is solved.

[0008] The present invention is intended to solve at least one of the above problems, and aims to provide a stand cap, a stand, and a stand installation method that make it easier to remove the stand and perform work after removal during floor coating work. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] One aspect of the present invention for solving the above problem is a mount cap that is attached to the foot of a mount, and includes a difficult-to-adhere body formed from a difficult-to-adhere material having poor adhesion properties, and the difficult-to-adhere body has a cylindrical outer tube portion and an outer closure portion that closes one end of the outer tube portion.

[0010] The outer closure may be pointed.

[0011] The present invention may further include an intervening body that is disposed between the foot of the stand and the difficult-to-adhere body, the intervening body being formed from a material other than the difficult-to-adhere material, and the intervening body having an inner tube portion that is disposed inside the outer tube portion.

[0012] The intermediate body may have the inner cylindrical portion and an inner closed opening portion that closes one end of the inner cylindrical portion.

[0013] One aspect of the present invention for solving the above problems is a method for installing a stand for temporarily supporting an object during floor coating work, comprising the steps of: preparing the stand; attaching stand caps having a hard-to-adhere body formed from a hard-to-adhere material having poor adhesion properties to the feet of the stand; and installing the stand on the floor and placing the object on the stand.

[0014] One aspect of the present invention for solving the above problems is a stand for temporarily supporting an object during floor coating work, the stand cap being attached to the feet of the stand in advance. Effect of the Invention

[0015] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a mount cap, a mount, and a mount installation method that enable removal of the mount and subsequent work to be performed more easily during floor coating work.

[0016] Problems, configurations, and effects other than those described above will become apparent from the following description of the embodiments. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Figure 7] FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining an example of a gantry cap according to the second embodiment. [Figure 8] FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining an example of mounting the gantry cap to the gantry according to the second embodiment. [Figure 9] FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining an example of a gantry cap according to Modification 1 of Embodiment 2. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] Hereinafter, examples of embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that components common to the following embodiments may be assigned the same reference numerals as those described above, and descriptions thereof may be omitted. In addition, when referring to the shape, positional relationship, etc. of components, etc., it is assumed that those that are substantially similar or similar to the shape, etc. are included, except when specifically stated otherwise or when it is considered in principle to be clearly different.

[0019] <Embodiment 1> Fig. 1 is a diagram for explaining an example of a mount cap according to the first embodiment, in which (a) is a plan view, (b) a bottom view, (c) a front view, and (d) a BB line cross-sectional view of (a). Fig. 2 is a front view for explaining an example of mounting the mount cap according to the first embodiment to a mount. In Fig. 1, the BB line indicates a center line that divides the front-rear width equally into the front and rear, and the CC line indicates a center line that divides the width equally into the left and right (the same applies in each of the following drawings). In the present application, the direction approaching the intersection of the BB line and the CC line is defined as the inside, and the direction away from the intersection is defined as the outside.

[0020] The stand according to this embodiment is for supporting an object, and is also called a horse. The stand according to this embodiment is installed in floor surface coating work such as waterproofing work on verandas, balconies, flat rooftops, etc., and is for temporarily supporting an object. Since strength is required, the stand is often made of steel, but it may be made of other materials such as wood. Most stands have four rod-shaped legs, but the number and shape of the legs are not particularly limited.

[0021] It is known that urethane resins used in waterproofing work have high adhesion to metals such as iron and wood. In addition, the coating layer in waterproofing work is applied thickly to obtain sufficient waterproofing effect. Therefore, especially in waterproofing work, it is time-consuming to pull out the legs of the stand from the hardened coating layer when removing the stand. It is also time-consuming to remove the coating material that has adhered to the pulled-out legs. It is also thought that the protrusions around the edges of the footprint holes are caused by the coating material adhering to the legs of the stand and hardening when applied to the floor surface.

[0022] 2, the gantry cap 1 of this embodiment is attached to the lower end A2 of the leg A1 of the gantry A. Note that, for convenience of explanation, the figure shows an example of attaching the gantry cap 1 to one leg A1, but the gantry cap 1 is attached to each leg A1 of the gantry A, and the gantry caps 1 are attached to one gantry A by the number of legs A1 (the same applies in the following drawings showing attachment examples).

[0023] The mount cap 1 of this embodiment includes a poorly adhesive body 2 formed of a poorly adhesive material having poor adhesion. The poorly adhesive material here refers to a material that has poor adhesion to a coating material for floor application. In floor application for waterproofing work, the poorly adhesive material is, more specifically, a material that has poor adhesion to a waterproofing material such as a liquid urethane resin used as a coating material. The poorly adhesive material is not particularly limited, but an example is a material containing silicone, such as silicone rubber. Silicone is known to have poor adhesion (non-adhesiveness), and silicone rubber is considered to be difficult to bond or stick to. It is considered that urethane resin as a waterproofing material has high adhesion to metal and wood, but low adhesion to silicone rubber.

[0024] In the mount cap 1 of this embodiment, the hard-to-adhere body 2 is formed from such a hard-to-adhere material, so it has good detachability from the coating layer, and if it is attached to the lower end A2 of the foot A1 of the mount A, the foot A1 can be easily pulled out from the coating layer when removing the mount A. In addition, since the lower end A2 of the foot A1 is covered with the hard-to-adhere body 2, there is no need to remove the coating material attached to the foot A1 after removing the mount A. In addition, since the coating material does not easily adhere to the hard-to-adhere body 2, the occurrence of protrusions can be suppressed.

[0025] In the installation of a conventional stand A, if the leg A1 of the stand A cannot be easily pulled out from the coating layer, it is necessary to cut out the area around the leg A1 with a cutter, which makes the hole larger, but with the stand cap 1 of this embodiment, the leg A1 can be easily pulled out and the hole is small, so it can be easily filled and becomes inconspicuous. In this way, by using the stand cap 1, removal of the stand during floor coating work and the work after removal can be performed more easily.

[0026] The mount cap 1 can be provided as a single unit, and a user can use a mount A that he or she owns or purchases, and attach the mount cap 1 to the foot A1 of the mount A himself or herself. The mount cap 1 may be provided in the form of a mount A with the mount cap 1 attached to the foot A1 in advance, in which case the user can use it as is. In this case, a replacement mount cap 1 may be provided separately.

[0027] Although the mount A can be manufactured by directly coating the lower end A2 of the leg A1 with a poorly adhesive material, this requires a lot of manufacturing work. The mount cap 1 can be manufactured at a relatively low cost, and if it deteriorates in performance or breaks during repeated use, it can be easily discarded and replaced, making it easier to use.

[0028] In the mount cap 1, the total length of the hard-to-adhere body 2 is at least greater than the thickness of the floor surface coating layer. From the viewpoint of more effectively suppressing adhesion of the coating material and the occurrence of protrusions, the total length of the hard-to-adhere body 2 is preferably at least twice the thickness of the floor surface coating layer, and more preferably at least three times. From the viewpoints of manufacturing cost and ease of installation, the total length of the hard-to-adhere body 2 is preferably 1 / 2 or less, and more preferably 1 / 3 or less, of the length of the leg A1 of the mount A.

[0029] Each part of the gantry cap 1 of this embodiment will be described in more detail below.

[0030] As shown in Fig. 1, in the pedestal cap 1 of this embodiment, the hard-to-adhere body 2 preferably has a cylindrical outer tube portion 21 and an outer closing portion 22 that closes one end of the outer tube portion 21. The outer closing portion 22 has an outer periphery of the same size and shape as the outer periphery of the outer tube portion 21. The outer tube portion 21 and the outer closing portion 22 are integrally formed from a hard-to-adhere material. By providing the hard-to-adhere body 2 with not only the outer tube portion 21 but also the outer closing portion 22, the lower end surface of the lower end portion A2 of the foot A1 is covered to prevent the application material from adhering to the lower end surface, and adhesion to the floor surface can be prevented.

[0031] The outer cylinder 21 is formed corresponding to the shape of the lower end A2 of the foot A1, and when the lower end A2 is cylindrical, the inner peripheral shape is formed into a cylindrical shape that is circular in plan view as shown in the figure. The outer peripheral shape of the outer cylinder 21 may be any shape, even if it is polygonal, but from the viewpoint of ease of attachment and detachment from the coating layer, it is preferably circular in the same shape as the inner peripheral shape and formed into a cylindrical shape as shown in the figure. Even when the lower end A2 is prismatic or the like, the inner peripheral shape of the outer cylinder 21 is formed into a polygonal shape corresponding thereto in plan view, and the outer peripheral shape may be any shape, even if it is polygonal in the same shape, but from the viewpoint of ease of attachment and detachment from the coating layer, it is preferably circular in plan view and cylindrical in front view as a whole.

[0032] As an example, the inner diameter (diameter of the inner peripheral surface) of the outer tube portion 21 is slightly larger than the diameter of the lower end portion A2. When the lower end portion A2 of the leg A1 has another shape such as a polygon, as an example, the inner circumference of the outer tube portion 21 is formed to be slightly larger than the outer circumference of the lower end portion A2. When the hard-to-adhere body 2 is an elastic body, the inner diameter (inner circumference) of the outer tube portion 21 may be equal to or smaller than the diameter (outer circumference) of the lower end portion A2, from the viewpoint of improving adhesion with the lower end portion A2.

[0033] The outer closing part 22 is formed in accordance with the shape of the lower end surface of the lower end part A2 of the foot A1. When the lower end surface of the foot A1 is a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the foot A1 as shown in Fig. 2, the outer closing part 22 is formed in a plate shape perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the outer cylinder part 21 as shown in Fig. 1.

[0034] <Modification 1 of the First Embodiment> Fig. 3 is a diagram for explaining an example of a gantry cap according to a first modified example of the first embodiment, and shows (a) a plan view, (b) a bottom view, (c) a front view, and (d) a cross-sectional view along line BB in (a). Fig. 4 is a diagram for explaining an example of a gantry cap according to a first modified example of the first embodiment, and shows (a) a left side view, (b) a right side view, and (c) a perspective view for explaining an example of attachment to a gantry.

[0035] In some cases, the lower end A2 of the foot A1 of the pedestal A is sharpened to reduce the contact area of ​​the foot A1 and make it difficult for the foot A1 to adhere to the ground. As an example, as shown by the dashed line in Fig. 4(c), the lower end of the cylindrical lower end A2 of the pedestal A may be cut obliquely, so that the lower end surface is an inclined surface with respect to the longitudinal direction of the foot A1. Alternatively, a part of the lower end of the lower end A2 may be cut obliquely, so that the lower end surface is stepped.

[0036] The mount cap 1 of this embodiment is suitable for such a mount A, and has an outer closing portion 22 that is sharpened corresponding to the lower end portion A2 of the mount A. In other words, the mount cap 1 of this embodiment has a sharpened end. An example of the mount cap 1 of this embodiment will be described in detail below. Note that the description of the same points as those in the above-mentioned embodiment 1 will be omitted as appropriate (the same applies to each of the following embodiments and modified examples).

[0037] In the present embodiment, the outer closing part 22 of the pedestal cap 1 has a pointed shape in front view as shown in FIG. 3(c) and a L-shaped cross section as shown in FIG. 3(d). More specifically, the outer closing part 22 has a disk-shaped bottom wall part 221 that forms an obtuse angle with the outer tube part 21 and slopes downward, and a connecting wall part 222 that is connected to the outer tube part 21 and forms an acute angle with the bottom wall part 221, as shown in FIG. 3(d). In other words, as shown in FIG. 4(a), the bottom wall part 221 is disk-shaped that slopes downward from one side of the outer periphery to the opposite side. As shown in FIG. 4(b), the connecting wall part 222 extends downward from the outer tube part 21 while narrowing its width and is connected to the bottom wall part 221.

[0038] By configuring the outer closure portion 22 in this manner, it can encase and receive the pointed lower end of the lower end portion A2 of the foot A1, thereby providing the effect of the first embodiment described above and further protecting the floor surface from damage.

[0039] Furthermore, when the stand A is inclined so that the legs A1 move away from each other as shown in Figure 4 (c), it takes more time to pull it out of the coating layer and makes it more difficult to repair the footprint holes, but the stand cap 1 of the above embodiment 1 and this example is particularly suitable for such a stand A.

[0040] <Modification 2 of the First Embodiment> 5A and 5B are diagrams for explaining an example of a mount cap according to variant example 2 of embodiment 1, in which (a) is a front view, (b) is a cross-sectional view along line BB, and (c) is a front view for explaining an example of mounting to a mount.

[0041] As an example, the pedestal A may have a cone-shaped lower end A2 of the foot A1 as shown in Fig. 5(c). The pedestal cap 1 of this example is suitable for such a pedestal A, and has an outer closure portion 22 that is pointed corresponding to the lower end A2 of the pedestal A. That is, the pedestal cap 1 of this example has a pointed end.

[0042] In the pedestal cap 1 of this example, the outer closing part 22 has a pointed shape in front view as shown in Fig. 5(a) and a V-shape in cross section as shown in Fig. 5(b). In other words, the outer closing part 22 has a hollow conical wall part 223 whose upper end is continuous with the outer cylinder part 21.

[0043] By configuring the outer closure portion 22 in this manner, it can encase and receive the pointed lower end of the lower end portion A2 of the foot A1, thereby providing the effect of the first embodiment described above and further protecting the floor surface from damage.

[0044] <Modification 3 of the First Embodiment> 6 is a diagram for explaining an example of a gantry cap according to Modification 3 of the first embodiment, in which (a) is a front view, (b) is a cross-sectional view along line BB, and (c) is a front view for explaining an example of mounting to a gantry. The gantry cap 1 of this example has a pointed outer closing part 22. That is, one end is in a pointed shape.

[0045] In the pedestal cap 1 of this example, the outer closing part 22 has a pointed shape in front view as shown in Fig. 6(a) and a triangular shape in cross section as shown in Fig. 6(b). In other words, the outer closing part 22 has a solid cone-shaped end part 224 that is connected to the outer cylinder part 21 near the outer periphery of the upper end.

[0046] By configuring the outer closure portion 22 in this manner, even when the lower end A2 of the foot A1 is not pointed as shown in FIG. 6(c), in addition to the effect of the first embodiment, the ground contact area can be reduced as much as possible.

[0047] <Embodiment 2> Fig. 7 is a diagram for explaining an example of the gantry cap according to the embodiment 2, in which (a) is an overall plan view, (b) is an overall bottom view, (c) is a BB line cross-sectional view, and (d) is a front view of an inner cylinder part. Fig. 8 is a perspective view for explaining an example of mounting the gantry cap according to the embodiment 2 to a gantry.

[0048] 7, the mount cap 1 of this embodiment includes a hard-to-adhere body 2 made of a hard-to-adhere material, and an interposer 3 disposed between the foot A1 of the mount A and the hard-to-adhere body 2. The hard-to-adhere body 2 of this embodiment is similar to the above-mentioned embodiment 1 and its modified examples, except that it has an inner periphery diameter (size of the inner periphery) capable of accommodating the interposer 3, and therefore a description thereof will be omitted here.

[0049] The poorly adhesive body 2 made of the poorly adhesive material, for example, silicone rubber, does not have a high degree of attachability to the foot A1, and may be difficult to attach. The intermediate body 3 of this embodiment is interposed between the foot A1 and the poorly adhesive body 2 to improve the attachability of the pedestal cap 1.

[0050] The intermediate body 3 is formed of a material other than the poorly adhesive material. More specifically, the material other than the poorly adhesive material is a material other than the poorly adhesive material described above, which has good wearability with the foot A1. The material other than the poorly adhesive material is not particularly limited, but is, for example, polypropylene (PP).

[0051] As shown in the figure, the intermediate body 3 has an inner cylinder portion 31 that is disposed inside the outer cylinder portion 21 of the hard-to-adhere body 2. The inner cylinder portion 31 is formed in the same shape as the outer cylinder portion 21. The inner cylinder portion 31 has an outer circumferential diameter (size of the outer periphery) that is slightly smaller than that of the outer cylinder portion 21, and an inner circumferential diameter (size of the inner periphery) that is slightly larger than the lower end portion A2 of the leg A1. As an example, the inner cylinder portion 31 has an overall length that is equal to that of the outer cylinder portion 21. From the viewpoint of making it easier to insert and remove the inner cylinder portion 31 from the hard-to-adhere body 2, the inner cylinder portion 31 is preferably configured to be longer than the outer cylinder portion 21 as shown in the figure.

[0052] 8, the interposition body 3 is interposed between the hard-to-adhere body 2 and the lower end A2 of the foot A1 in the used state. By configuring the pedestal cap 1 of this embodiment by overlapping the hard-to-adhere body 2 and the interposition body 3 inside and outside in this way, in addition to the effects of the above-mentioned embodiment 1 and its modified examples, it is possible to further facilitate attachment and detachment to the foot A1, thereby improving the fit to the foot A1.

[0053] <Modification 1 of the second embodiment> FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining an example of a gantry cap according to Modification 1 of Embodiment 2, in which (a) is an overall cross-sectional view taken along line BB, and (d) is a front view of an inner cylindrical portion.

[0054] The gantry cap 1 of this embodiment differs from the above-mentioned embodiment 2 in that the intermediate body 3 has an inner tubular portion 31 and an inner closed mouth portion 32 that closes one end of the inner tubular portion 31. The intermediate body 3 is integrally formed with the inner tubular portion 31 and the inner closed mouth portion 32 using the same material. The outer periphery of the inner closed mouth portion 32 has the same size and shape as the outer periphery of the inner tubular portion 31.

[0055] The inner closing part 32 is formed in the same shape as the outer closing part 22. In other words, the inner closing part 32 is formed corresponding to the shape of the lower end surface of the lower end part A2 of the foot A1, similar to the outer closing part 22. As shown in the figure, when the outer closing part 22 is a disk shape perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the outer cylinder part 21, the inner closing part 32 is formed in a disk shape perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the inner cylinder part 31, and when the outer closing part 22 is formed in a pointed shape as in the first and second modifications of the first embodiment, the inner closing part 32 is also formed in a corresponding pointed shape.

[0056] In this example, the mount cap 1 has an inner closure portion 32 in which the intermediate body 3 overlaps the inside of the outer closure portion 22, and in addition to the effects of embodiment 2 described above, the strength of the ends that come into contact with the floor surface and foot A1 is increased, making it less likely to break.

[0057] <How to install the stand> The steps of the installation method of the stand using the stand cap of the above embodiment and its modified example will be described below. This installation method is particularly suitable for installing a stand that temporarily supports an object in a floor coating work.

[0058] First, prepare a stand A. A commercially available stand A can be used. An example of a commercially available stand A is shown in the figure above.

[0059] Next, a gantry cap 1 having a hard-to-adhere body 2 formed of the hard-to-adhere material is attached to the leg A1 of the gantry A. A suitable gantry cap 1 can be used depending on the shape of the lower end A2 of the leg A1 of the gantry A.

[0060] In the case of the mount cap 1 of the above-mentioned embodiment 2 and its modified example, as an example, the intermediate body 3 is first attached to the foot A1, and then the hard-to-adhere body 2 is attached to the outside of the intermediate body 3. From the viewpoint of saving time and labor, preferably, the intermediate body 3 is inserted into the hard-to-adhere body 2 as a set, and is attached to and removed from the foot A1 in a single operation as a set.

[0061] Next, the stand A with the stand cap 1 attached is placed on the floor, and an object such as an outdoor unit is placed on the stand A to complete the installation.

[0062] After that, the floor coating work is carried out, and after the work is completed, the base A is pulled out from the coating layer and removed. In floor coating work carried out using this installation method, the base A can be removed without any trouble.

[0063] After that, the footprint holes are repaired. In floor coating work using this installation method, the occurrence of protrusions around the edges of the holes is suppressed, and the holes are easy to fill. In addition, since the lower end A2 of the foot A1 is covered with the non-adhesive body 2, the coating material does not adhere to the foot A1, and there is no need to remove it.

[0064] If the stand A with the stand cap 1 already attached to the leg A1 is used, the installation is completed by placing it on the floor and placing an object such as an outdoor unit on it. After that, the procedure is the same as above.

[0065] Needless to say, the stand cap 1 and the stand A with the stand cap 1 pre-attached to the leg A1 may be used in construction other than floor coating construction.

[0066] The above describes the embodiment and its modified examples of the mount cap, mount, and mount installation method according to the present invention, but these are merely examples of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to these. The present invention includes combinations of the above embodiments and their modified examples, as well as various other modified examples. Various additions, modifications, and partial deletions are possible within the scope of the conceptual idea and intent of the present invention derived from the contents defined in the claims and their equivalents.
