DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] The present invention will now be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. [Example]

[0017] Figures 3 to 8 show one embodiment of the present invention. In Figures 3 to 8, the upper portion of the main body 8 of the eaves underlayment hanging hardware 7 has a U-shaped cross section and extends in the vertical direction. This main body 8 has bays 9 that are open on the sides (bays 9 of the same size and shape are formed on two opposing sides of the U-shaped part of the main body 8). These bays 9 have oblique sides 9a that extend diagonally relative to the vertical direction.

[0018] A male screw member 10 (bolt) is rotatably supported in a state in which it extends horizontally in the main body 8 of the eaves underlayment hanging hardware 7, and this male screw member 10 is Pressing body 11. Pressing body 11 has an inclined surface portion 11a that forms a slope oblique to the horizontal direction, a vertical surface portion 11b that extends vertically downward from the lower end of the inclined surface portion 11a, and a horizontal surface portion 11c that bends from the lower end of the vertical surface portion 11b and extends horizontally.

[0019] By rotating the male screw member 10, the movable member 11 can be moved horizontally, and the inclined portion 11a can be moved away from the oblique side portion 9a of the bay portion 9 as shown in Figure 5, or pressed against the oblique side portion 9a as shown in Figures 6 and 7.

[0020] The lower part of the main body 8 of the eaves underlayment hanging hardware 7 is formed with a siding mounting part 13 for mounting to the siding 5 with screws 12, as shown in Figures 7 and 8. The siding 5 is attached to the top surface of the eaves top board 6.

[0021] When transporting to the construction site, as shown in Figure 5, Pressing body 11 diagonals surface 7, the lower end 2a of the ceiling beam 2 is set in a position such that the lower end 2a of the ceiling beam 2 is spaced from the oblique side 9a of the bay portion 9. Pressing body 6 and 7, the male screw member 10 is rotated so that it enters the bay portion 9 of the male screw member 11. Pressing body If you move 11 horizontally (to the right in Figures 6 and 7), it will look like Figure 7. Pressing body The inclined surface 11a of the bay portion 9 contacts the oblique side 9a of the bay portion 9. Pressing body The bottom 11c of the ceiling beam 11 abuts against the upper surface of the horizontal portion 2a at the lower end of the ceiling beam 2, Pressing body 11 and the bottom portion 9b of the bay portion 9 sandwich the end of the horizontal portion 2a of the ceiling beam 2, and this alone makes it possible to attach the ceiling joist 5 and ultimately the eaves board 6 to the beam 2.

[0022] That is, by simply rotating one male screw member 10, the ceiling joist 5 and therefore the eaves board 6 can be attached to ceiling beams 2 of different thicknesses.

[0023] The mounting hardware of the present invention can be used not only for hanging from the ceiling, but also for hanging from other locations such as a wall. The hardware itself may also be placed horizontally or at an angle to support an object. [Industrial Applicability]

[0024] INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is useful as a support hardware used as a hanging hardware for eaves ceiling underlayment, which is used to support ceiling joists in the eaves ceiling of a building. [Explanation of symbols]
