[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a mounting structure for an illuminated eaves that allows for easy mounting of an eaves body having lighting fixtures on the exterior wall surface of a building. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems and has the following features. The invention described in claim 1 is an installation structure for an illuminated eaves in which a lighting fixture is attached to a eaves body that protrudes forward from the outdoor side of the exterior wall of a building, the eaves body being constructed by connecting multiple hollow eaves materials, at least one of the multiple eaves materials has a wiring hole formed on the underside, and the lighting fixture with a power cord is attached to the underside of the eaves material so as to cover the wiring hole, the eaves body being attached to the outdoor side of the exterior wall via an installation member, the installation member having multiple through holes at predetermined positions, at least one of the through holes through which a bolt is inserted to fix the exterior wall and the installation member, and at least one through hole through which the power cord that is drawn from the wiring hole into the hollow of the eaves material and drawn out from the base end of the eaves material is inserted.
[0007] The invention described in claim 2 is characterized in that, in addition to the features of the invention described in claim 1, the mounting member consists of a vertical piece fixed to the outer wall and a horizontal piece that supports the eaves body, and below the vertical piece is a support piece that protrudes forward from the vertical piece, the tip of which abuts the base end of the eaves body, a space is provided between the vertical piece and the base end of the eaves body, and the space is a passage for the power cord.
[0008] The invention described in claim 3 is characterized in that, in addition to the features of the invention described in claim 1 or 2, a water-repellent cover material is attached to the upper surface of the base end of the eaves body so as to protrude forward from the vertical piece, and above the vertical piece is a cover mounting piece that protrudes forward from the vertical piece, the water-repellent cover material is fixed to the cover mounting piece, and a space is provided between the vertical piece and the water-repellent cover material, and the space is a passage for the power cord.
[0009] The invention described in claim 4 is characterized in that, in addition to the features of the invention described in any one of claims 1 to 3, the power cord is inserted into a through hole in the exterior wall located at a position connected to at least one of the through holes and pulled into the indoor side of the exterior wall. [Effects of the Invention]
[0010] The invention described in claim 1 is as described above, and relates to a mounting structure for an illuminated eaves for mounting a lighting fixture to a eaves body that extends forward from the outdoor side of the exterior wall of a building. The eaves body is constructed by connecting multiple hollow eaves members, at least one of which has a wiring hole formed in its underside, and a lighting fixture with a power cord attached to the underside of the eaves member so as to cover the wiring hole. The eaves body is mounted to the outdoor side of the exterior wall via mounting members, and the mounting members have multiple through holes in predetermined positions, so there is no need to change the position of the through holes for each site. This allows drilling with a common jig during processing, reducing processing costs. Furthermore, the structure has at least one through hole for inserting a bolt to secure the exterior wall and the mounting member, and at least one through hole for inserting a power cord that is drawn from the wiring hole into the hollow of the eaves member and drawn out from the base end of the eaves member, so that the power cord can be guided simply by inserting it into the through hole, improving workability.
[0011] The invention described in claim 2 is as described above, in which the mounting member comprises a vertical piece fixed to the exterior wall and a horizontal piece supporting the eaves body, with a support piece below the vertical piece protruding forward from the vertical piece, the tip of which abuts the base end of the eaves body, and a space between the vertical piece and the base end of the eaves body. Because this space is a passage for the power cord, the space provided by the forward protrusion of the support piece allows the power cord to pass through the space and move to the through-hole in the mounting member through which the power cord is inserted, even if the power cord is not aligned with the base end of the eaves material. This eliminates the need to align the eaves material to which the lighting fixture is attached and the through-hole through which the power cord is inserted, resulting in improved workability. Furthermore, even if the position of the eaves material to which the lighting fixture is attached needs to be changed on-site, this can be done without worrying about the position of the through-hole through which the power cord is inserted, resulting in high convenience.
[0012] The invention described in claim 3 is as described above, and includes a drain cover attached to the upper surface of the base end of the eaves body so as to protrude forward from the vertical piece, a cover mounting piece above the vertical piece that protrudes forward from the vertical piece, and the drain cover is fixed to the cover mounting piece. A space is provided between the vertical piece and the drain cover, and this space serves as a passage for the power cord. Because the space is the same as the drain cover protruding forward from the vertical piece, the power cord can pass through the space and move to the through hole in the mounting member through which the power cord is inserted, even if the power cord is not aligned with the through hole in the mounting member through which the power cord is inserted. This eliminates the need to align the eaves member to which the lighting fixture is attached and the through hole through which the power cord is inserted, resulting in improved workability. Furthermore, even if the position of the eaves member to which the lighting fixture is attached needs to be changed on-site, the change can be made without worrying about the position of the through hole through which the power cord is inserted, resulting in high convenience.
[0013] The invention described in claim 4 is as described above, and the power cord is inserted into a through-hole in the exterior wall located in a position connected to at least one of the through-holes and pulled into the indoor side of the exterior wall. Therefore, simply by connecting the through-holes together, the power cord can be smoothly sent indoors, making it easy to work with. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0015] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0016] As shown in Figure 1, the mounting structure 10 for an illuminated eaves in this embodiment has an eaves body 30 attached via a mounting member 20 so that it protrudes forward from the outdoor side A of the building's exterior wall 2, and a lighting fixture 40 attached inside the eaves body 30.
[0017] As shown in FIG. 2, the mounting member 20 is for supporting the eaves body 30. As shown in FIG. 3, the mounting member 20 according to this embodiment is formed by extrusion molding of aluminum so as to form an L-shape with a vertical piece 20a fixed to the exterior wall 2 and a horizontal piece 20b supporting the eaves body 30 (described later), and is set to match the length of the eaves body 30. The vertical piece 20a has through holes 20c formed at predetermined intervals above and below in the longitudinal direction for inserting bolts 51. Through holes 20d formed at predetermined intervals above and below in the longitudinal direction for inserting power cords 41a for electrically connecting to lighting fixtures 40 (described later) and for supplying power. The vertical piece 20a and the horizontal piece 20b are each provided with a rail groove 20e for supporting the eaves body 30. Note that the configuration is not limited to the rail groove 20e, as long as the mounting member 20 can support the eaves body 30.
[0018] Additionally, a support piece 20f for supporting the base end 30d of the eave body 30 protrudes forward from the vertical piece 20a below the vertical piece 20a. As shown in FIG. 2, the support piece 20f according to this embodiment is formed in a stepped shape, with the tip of the support piece 20f hanging downward and continuing to the eave support surface 20g protruding forward from the vertical piece 20a. That is, when the eave body 30 is attached to the mounting member 20, the base end 30d of the eave body 30 abuts against the tip of the support piece 20f, and the underside 30b of the eave body 30 near the base end 30d is supported by the eave support surface 20g, preventing the eave body 30 from slipping into the mounting member 20 and ensuring that it is securely supported in the specified position. A space P is provided between the base end 30d of the eave body 30 and the vertical piece 20a of the mounting member 20. This space P prevents interference with protruding parts such as the bolt heads and nuts of the bolts 51 used to attach the mounting member 20, and also serves as a passage S for the power cord 41a, which will be described later.
[0019] The eaves body 30 is fixed to the exterior wall 2 via this mounting member 20. As shown in FIG. 1, the eaves body 30 according to this embodiment is formed by extrusion molding of aluminum, with a hollow 30c between an upper surface 30a and a lower surface 30b extruded in a direction extending forward from the exterior side A of the exterior wall 2. The eaves body 30 is configured by joining the ends of eaves members 31 along the length of the exterior wall 2. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6(a), the eaves members 31 are joined by fitting together, or as shown in FIG. 6(b), the eaves bodies 30, 30' are formed by joining eaves members 31 together by rotation, as shown in FIG. 4. At least one of the eaves members 31, 31', 31a, 31a', has a lighting fixture 40 (described below) attached to it so as to cover the wiring hole 31b in the lower surface 30b. Note that the eaves body 30 may be an aluminum extrusion extruded in the length direction of the exterior wall 2, as long as it extends forward from the exterior side A of the exterior wall 2.
[0020] The canopy member 31a having this wiring hole 31b is provided with mounting holes 31c that are smaller than the wiring hole 31b. That is, as shown in Fig. 5, mounting holes 31c are provided on the left and right sides above the wiring hole 31b, and are opened in positions that form a triangle with the wiring hole 31b and the two mounting holes 31c. As shown in Fig. 2, the wiring hole 31b is a hole for pulling a power cord 41a of a lighting fixture 40 (described below) into the hollow 30c of the canopy member 31a, and the mounting hole 31c is a hole for inserting a screw 53 for fixing the lighting fixture 40 to the underside 30b of the canopy member 31a, as shown in Figs. 6(a) and 6(b).
[0021] Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the lighting fixture 40 is attached to the underside 30b of at least one eaves member 31a of the eaves body 30, and brightly illuminates the area below the eaves body 30. As shown in FIG. 4, the lighting fixture 40 according to this embodiment is composed of an LED substrate 41b, a circular mounting portion 41c in which the LED substrate 41b is embedded, a cover material 41d that covers the mounting portion 41c, and a power cord 41a that is electrically connected to the mounting portion 41c and supplies power. The mounting portion 41c has a mounting hole 41e that communicates with the mounting hole 31c of the eaves member 31a. The mounting portion 41c is attached to the underside 30b of the eaves member 31a by inserting and fastening a screw 53 into the mounting hole 41e and the mounting hole 31c of the eaves member 31a. Furthermore, by engaging the cover material 41d with the mounting portion 41c, the lighting fixture 40 is attached to at least one eaves member 31a of the eaves body 30, as shown in FIG. 4.
[0022] As shown in Figures 6(a) and 6(b), this power cord 41a is pulled into the hollow 30c of the eaves material 31a through the wiring hole 31b in the eaves material 31a, and is then pulled out from the base end 30d of the eaves material 31a as shown in Figure 4. The space P between the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 and the vertical piece 20a of the mounting member 20 serves as a passage S for the power cord 41a, and the power cord 41a is inserted into the indoor side B through the nearby through-hole 20d of the mounting member 20 and through a through-hole 2b in the exterior wall 2, which will be described later. That is, even if the positions of the eaves member 31a and the through-holes 20d and 2b are not aligned, the power cord 41a can move freely through the space P (passageway S). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, the power cord 41a of the upper eaves member 31a is inserted through the through-holes 20d and 2b near the lower eaves member 31a, and the power cord 41a of the lower eaves member 31a is inserted through the through-holes 20d and 2b near the joint with the upper eaves member 31a. This eliminates the need to change the drilling position of the through-holes 20d for each site. Furthermore, even if the position of the eaves member 31a to which the lighting fixture 40 is attached needs to be changed on-site, it can be changed without worrying about the position of the through-hole 20d through which the power cord 41a is inserted. Note that in this embodiment, the lower side of the through-holes 20d formed at the top and bottom are used, and the change is made along the length of the exterior wall 2. However, the change is not limited to the length of the exterior wall 2, and various other changes are possible.
[0023] For example, as shown in Figure 8, the mounting structure 10A for an illuminated eaves may have a power cord 41a inserted through the upper through-holes 20d and 2b. That is, the power cord 41a, drawn from the base end 30d of the eaves member 31a, is inserted through the upper through-holes 20d and 2b, not only through the space P between the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 and the vertical piece 20a of the mounting member 20, but also through the space P' (passage S') between the inner surface 33a of the water-repellent cover member 33 and the vertical piece 20a of the mounting member 20. This allows various through-holes 20d to be selected depending on the site conditions, resulting in high convenience. Furthermore, the water-repellent cover member 33 hides the power cord 41a from external visibility, resulting in a favorable design.
[0024] As shown in FIG. 2, the exterior wall 2 is made of concrete such as ALC, and a eaves body 30 is attached to the exterior side A. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the exterior wall 2 according to this embodiment has through holes 2a and 2b formed therethrough, penetrating from the exterior side A to the indoor side B. Specifically, the through hole 2a is formed to communicate with the through hole 20c of the mounting member 20, and is for attaching the mounting member 20 to the exterior wall 2. On the other hand, the through hole 2b is formed to communicate with the through hole 20d of the mounting member 20, and is for inserting a power cord 41a into the indoor side B. The inserted power cord 41a is connected to a power source (not shown) on the indoor side.
[0025] The canopy body 30 of the above-described illuminated canopy mounting structure 10 is a so-called forward slope type in which the tip 30e of the canopy body 30 is sloped downward from the base end 30d, as shown in FIG. 1, but the slope of the canopy body 30 is not limited to this.
[0026] For example, as shown in Fig. 9, the mounting structure 10B for an illuminated eaves may be a backward slope type (or reverse slope type) in which the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 is sloped downward more than the tip end 30e. That is, as shown in Fig. 10, the mounting member 20' comprises a vertical piece 20a' fixed to the exterior wall 2 and a horizontal piece 20b' that supports the eaves body 30, and the vertical piece 20a' has through holes 20c' formed at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction for inserting bolts 51, and through holes 20d' formed at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction for inserting a power cord 41a for electrical connection to the lighting fixture 40 and for supplying power. Furthermore, the vertical piece 20a' has a hook piece 20i for supporting the upper surface 30a of the base end 30d of the eaves body 30, and a support piece 20f' for supporting the base end 30d of the eaves body 30, which protrude forward from the vertical piece 20a'. The horizontal piece 20b' has an eaves support surface 20g' for supporting the underside 30b of the base end 30d of the eaves body 30. In other words, when the eaves body 30 is attached to the mounting member 20', the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 abuts against the support piece 20f', and the underside 30b of the eaves body 30 near the base end 30d is supported by the eaves support surface 20g', preventing the eaves body 30 from slipping into the mounting member 20' and ensuring that it is securely supported in the specified position. A space P is provided between the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 and the vertical piece 20a' of the mounting member 20'. This space P prevents interference from protruding parts such as the bolt heads and nuts of the bolts 51 used to attach the mounting member 20', and also serves as a passage S for the power cord 41a. Note that in the above-described embodiment, the same members as those described above are given the same reference numerals, and redundant explanations will be omitted.
[0027] As shown in Figure 4, the above-mentioned mounting structure 10 for the illuminated eaves is constructed by inserting a bolt 51 into the through hole 2a of the exterior wall 2 and the through hole 20c of the mounting member 20 so that the pre-formed through hole 2b of the exterior wall 2 and the through hole 20d of the mounting member 20 are connected, and then the mounting member 20 is attached to the outdoor side A of the exterior wall 2. Next, as shown in Figure 2, the eaves body 30 including at least one eaves member 31a is fastened to the upper surface 30a of the eaves body 30 by inserting the head of a bolt 52 into the rail groove 20e of the horizontal piece 20b of the mounting member 20 and inserting the male screw into the through hole 31d provided in the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 via one piece of the support bracket 32, and the other piece is fastened by inserting the head of a bolt 52 into the rail groove 20e of the vertical piece 20a of the mounting member 20 and inserting the male screw into the other piece. Once fastened, as shown in Figure 7, a space P is created between the base end 30d of the eaves body 30 and the vertical piece 20a of the mounting member 20, and the power cord 41a, which has already been inserted into the hollow 30c of the eaves material 31a, is pulled out into this space P (passage S). This power cord 41a is then inserted into the nearby through-holes 20d and 2b and connected to a power source (not shown) on the indoor side B. This completes the installation.
[0028] As described above, according to this embodiment, in the mounting structures 10, 10A, 10B for the illuminated eaves in which the lighting fixture 40 is mounted on the eaves body 30, 30' that protrudes forward from the outdoor side A of the exterior wall 2 of the building, the eaves body 30, 30' is configured by connecting a plurality of hollow eaves members 31, 31', and a wiring hole 31b is formed on the underside 30b of at least one of the plurality of eaves members 31, 31', and the eaves member 31a, 31a' is connected to the underside 30b of the eaves member 31, 31' so as to cover the wiring hole 31b. and a lighting fixture 40 with a power cord 41a attached to the underside 30b of 31a', and the canopy bodies 30, 30' are attached to the outdoor side A of the exterior wall 2 via mounting members 20, 20', and the mounting members 20, 20' have a plurality of through holes 20c, 20c', 20d, 20d' at predetermined positions, so there is no need to change the positions of the through holes 20c, 20c', 20d, 20d' for each site, and therefore holes can be drilled using a common jig during processing, thereby reducing processing costs. In addition, at least one through hole 20c, 20c' is formed through which a bolt 51 is inserted to fix the outer wall 2 and the mounting members 20, 20', and at least one through hole 20d, 20d' is formed through which the power cord 41a is inserted, which is drawn from the wiring hole 31b into the hollow 30c of the eaves material 31a, 31a' and pulled out from the base end 30d of the eaves material 31a, 31a'.Therefore, the power cord 41a can be guided simply by inserting it into the through hole 20d, 20d', making it easy to work with.
[0029] The mounting members 20, 20' are made up of vertical pieces 20a, 20a' fixed to the exterior wall 2 and horizontal pieces 20b, 20b' that support the eaves bodies 30, 30'. Support pieces 20f, 20f' that protrude forward from the vertical pieces 20a, 20a' are provided below the vertical pieces 20a, 20a'. The base ends 30d of the eaves bodies 30, 30' abut against the tips of the support pieces 20f, 20f'. A space P is provided between the vertical pieces 20a, 20a' and the base ends 30d of the eaves bodies 30, 30'. The space P is a passage S for the power cord 41a. Because of the space P created by the forward projection of the eaves members 31a, 31a', the power cord 41a can pass through the space P and move to the through-holes 20d, 20d' even if the power cord 41a pulled out from the base end 30d of the eaves members 31a, 31a' is not aligned with the through-holes 20d, 20d' of the mounting members 20, 20' through which the power cord 41a passes. This eliminates the need to align the eaves members 31a, 31a' to which the lighting fixture 40 is attached with the through-holes 20d, 20d' through which the power cord 41a passes, improving workability. Furthermore, even if the position of the eaves members 31a, 31a' to which the lighting fixture 40 is attached needs to be changed on-site, the change can be made without worrying about the position of the through-holes 20d, 20d' through which the power cord 41a passes, resulting in high convenience.
[0030] Furthermore, a drain cover material 33 is attached to the upper surface 30a of the base end 30d of the canopy body 30, 30' so as to protrude forward from the vertical pieces 20a, 20a', and above the vertical pieces 20a, 20a', there are provided cover mounting pieces 20h that protrude forward from the vertical pieces 20a, 20a', and the drain cover material 33 is fixed to the cover mounting pieces 20h. A space P' is provided between the vertical pieces 20a, 20a' and the drain cover material 33, and the space P' is a passage S' for the power cord 41a, so that the drain cover material 33 is attached to the vertical pieces 20a, 20a'. Because of the space P' corresponding to the amount of forward projection, the power cord 41a can pass through the space P' and move to the through-holes 20d, 20d' even if the power cord 41a pulled out from the base end 30d of the eaves members 31a, 31a' is not aligned with the through-holes 20d, 20d' of the mounting members 20, 20' through which the power cord 41a passes. This eliminates the need to align the eaves members 31a, 31a' to which the lighting fixture 40 is attached with the through-holes 20d, 20d' through which the power cord 41a passes, improving workability. Furthermore, even if the position of the eaves members 31a, 31a' to which the lighting fixture 40 is attached needs to be changed on-site, the change can be made without worrying about the position of the through-holes 20d, 20d' through which the power cord 41a passes, providing high convenience.
[0031] Furthermore, the power cord 41a is inserted into a through hole 2b in the exterior wall 2 that is provided at a position that is connected to at least one of the through holes 20d, 20d', and is pulled into the indoor side B of the exterior wall 2. Therefore, the power cord 41a can be smoothly sent to the indoor side B simply by connecting the through holes 20d, 20d', 2a together, which improves workability. [Explanation of symbols]
