Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] However, since the single pipe is usually simply installed on the ground, when a load is applied to the main rope during work on the slope, for example, depending on the state of the ground such as soft or hard ground, the lower end of the single pipe may be buried in the ground or lifted up, resulting in an unstable state and the support may fall over. Also, even if the base end of the single pipe is made into a sharp shape and driven into the ground to prevent the installation position of the single pipe from shifting, in the case of soft ground, the single pipe is likely to come out of the ground, resulting in an unstable state.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide an installation tool for a gantry capable of firmly fixing a rod-shaped member to the ground, a gantry installation method using the same, and a tent installation method using the same.

[0020] The present invention provides a mounting device comprising: a rod-shaped member body and a flange provided at the base of the rod-shaped member body, the base of which is driven into the ground; and a pile member that is locked to the flange tip of the rod-shaped member and driven into the ground in a direction different from the direction in which the rod-shaped member is driven.

[0021] The mounting device of the present invention may have multiple rod-shaped members and multiple pile members. Two or more pile members may be combined with one rod-shaped member.

[0022] The manner in which this mounting device is used is not particularly limited, as long as both the rod-shaped member and the pile member are driven into the ground. For example, it can be used by driving only one rod-shaped member into a specific installation location in the ground, or by driving in two or three or more rod-shaped members. When using multiple rod-shaped members, it can be used as a single unit (together) (for example, the main column support base described later).

[0023] Conventional mounting systems equipped with rod-shaped members may not be able to stably install on the ground due to the lower end of the rod-shaped member being buried in the ground or the installation position shifting depending on the ground conditions, such as whether the ground is soft or hard. However, the mounting system of the present invention can solve this problem. Specifically, the mounting system of the present invention allows a pile member to be driven into the ground in a direction different from the driving direction of the rod-shaped member, with the pile member locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member. As a result, the rod-shaped member can be firmly fixed to the ground, and mounting systems and tents using this system can be installed stably on the ground.

[0024] The mounting device for the frame according to the present invention will be described below. (Rod-shaped member) The rod-shaped member comprises a rod-shaped member body and a flange provided at the base of the rod-shaped member body, with the base side being driven into the ground.

[0025] The rod-shaped member is not particularly limited as long as a flange is provided at the base of the rod-shaped member body and it can be driven into the ground. For example, it is preferable that the base end (the side driven into the ground) from the flange tapers towards the base end (see Figures 1(a), (b), 2, 3(a), 4(a), (b)). The size of the rod-shaped member (rod-shaped member body) can be appropriately selected depending on the application and is not particularly limited, but the length is preferably about 0.5m to 3m, and preferably about 1m to 2m. The diameter (or the length of the diagonal in the case of a square) is preferably about 20mm to 150mm, and preferably about 30mm to 100mm.

[0026] Examples of rod-shaped members include tubular members with a hollow interior and solid members without a hollow interior. Specifically, examples include cylindrical (hollow), rectangular (hollow), columnar, and rectangular prism-shaped members. If weight reduction is a consideration, cylindrical or rectangular tubular members are preferred. The material of the rod-shaped member body is not particularly limited, as long as it has the required strength and can be driven into the ground. Examples include stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, and special steel, and its surface may be subjected to surface treatment such as plating.

[0027] The flange is not particularly limited, as long as it is a member that protrudes outward from the rod-shaped member body in order to prevent the rod-shaped member body from being buried in the ground. Examples include thin plate-shaped protruding members that are continuous or discontinuous in the circumferential direction of the rod-shaped member body. The flange size can be appropriately selected depending on the ground conditions and required strength, and is not particularly limited. The thickness is preferably about 5mm to 30mm, and preferably about 5mm to 20mm. The protrusion width from the surface of the rod-shaped member body is preferably about 10mm to 100mm, and preferably about 10mm to 50mm. Furthermore, it is preferable that the flange material be the same as that of the rod-shaped member body, considering the integration between the rod-shaped member body and the flange.

[0028] (Pile member) The pile member is a component that is driven into the ground in a direction different from the driving direction of the rod-shaped member, while being locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member.

[0029] The pile member is preferably made of a solid material and is preferably tapered towards the base. The material is not particularly limited as long as it can be driven into the ground, and examples include stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, special steel, etc., and the surface may be treated with a textured finish or plating. The size of the pile member can be appropriately selected depending on the ground conditions, etc., and is not particularly limited. Preferably, it is smaller in diameter than the main rod-shaped member and has a length of, for example, about 0.1m to 0.7m.

[0030] The shape of the pile member is not particularly limited as long as it can be locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member, but it is preferable that it has a bent portion at the tip, and specifically it can be L-shaped or J-shaped, for example (see Figures 1(c), 2, 3(b), 4(a), (b)).

[0031] Here, it is preferable that the rod-shaped member body has through holes through which the pile member can be inserted, and specifically, it is preferable that elongated through holes appear on the tip side and base side of the flange (see Figures 1(a), (b), and 2). In other words, the elongated through-hole is formed across the flange, extending from the tip to the base of the rod-shaped member body, so that the pile member through which the hole is inserted is installed intersecting the flange. Here, it is more preferable that the through holes are formed so as to intersect downward from the flange tip side to the base side. Specifically, for example, in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the rod-shaped member body (e.g., radial direction), a through hole (in side) is formed on one side of the rod-shaped member body toward the flange tip side, and a through hole (out side) is formed on the other side of the rod-shaped member body toward the flange base side (i.e., each through hole does not straddle the flange). In this way, by reducing the area of ​​the through-hole (to the minimum necessary), the reduction in the strength of the rod-shaped member body can be effectively suppressed.

[0032] Furthermore, if the pile member is J-shaped, the pile member can be driven into the ground with its bent portion hooked onto the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member (see Figures 3(b) and 4(a)). In other words, the rod-shaped member body does not need to have the elongated through-hole described above (see Figure 3(a)). Note that if the rod-shaped member body has an elongated through-hole, J-shaped and L-shaped pile members can be used in combination (simultaneously). In other words, it is possible to use two or more pile members, in which case these pile members are driven into the ground with their bent portions locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member (see Figure 4(b)). It is preferable that the multiple pile members are driven in a direction different from the direction in which the rod-shaped member is driven, and that each of the multiple pile members is driven into the ground in a different direction.

[0033] Here, by driving the pile member into the ground in a direction different from the direction in which the rod-shaped member is driven, even if a force acts in a direction that would pull the rod-shaped member out of the ground, the pile member can prevent the rod-shaped member from being pulled out of the ground. As for the different direction, for example, it is preferable that the angle between the direction in which the rod-shaped member is driven (axial direction) and the direction in which the pile member is driven (axial direction) is 5° to 90°, and more preferably 10° to 90° (see Figures 2, 4(a), and (b)).

[0034] (Preferred Embodiment 1) The mounting device of the present invention preferably has three or more rod-shaped members, and the tips of the three or more rod-shaped members are tiltably attached to a fixing plate having a hole in the center through which a main column rod-shaped member can be inserted, so as to spread radially from a closed state, thereby forming a main column support base (see Figures 5, 7, and 8).

[0035] To construct the main column support base, there are no particular limitations on the number of rod-shaped members required; for example, four members may be used. On the other hand, there are no particular limitations on the upper limit of the number of rod-shaped members, but for example, six members is a reasonable number. Furthermore, while it is preferable that the three or more rod-shaped members constituting the main column support base be of the same shape and size, some or all of them may differ in shape and / or size.

[0036] The fixing plate is, for example, a flat plate-shaped member, and it is preferable that the tips of the rod-shaped members are pivotably attached so that three or more rod-shaped members can tilt around a central hole at equal pitches in the circumferential direction. Alternatively, the fixing plate may be a member having three or more holes formed therein at equal pitches in the circumferential direction, around a central hole, through which the rod-shaped members can be inserted.

[0037] The mounting bracket preferably further comprises a main column rod-shaped member that is inserted into a hole formed in the center of the fixing plate of the main column support base (see Figures 5, 7, and 8). The main column rod-shaped member preferably has the same configuration as the rod-shaped member described above. Specifically, for example, a flange is provided at the base of the main column rod-shaped member body, and the end from the flange towards the base (the side driven into the ground) is preferably tapered towards the base, and the tip is preferably connected to an extension rod-shaped member, which will be described later, with its axis aligned. Furthermore, it is preferable to fix the main column rod-shaped member in the same way as the rod-shaped member. Specifically, for example, it can be firmly fixed to the ground using a pile member that is driven into the ground in a direction different from the direction in which the main column rod-shaped member is driven, while being locked to the flange tip side of the main column rod-shaped member.

[0038] (Preferred embodiment 2) The mounting device of the present invention is used when driving a rod-shaped member into the ground, and preferably includes a hammer member that is attached to the tip side of the flange of the rod-shaped member body, is reciprocally movable along the rod-shaped member body, and applies force to the flange from the tip side to drive the rod-shaped member into the ground (see Figure 6).

[0039] While it is possible to drive rod-shaped members into the ground using a conventional hammer held by a handle and swung down, the hammer member of the present invention allows for safer, more efficient, and stronger driving of rod-shaped members into the ground.

[0040] The hammer member is not particularly limited as long as it can be attached to the tip side of the flange of the rod-shaped member body. For example, it may be permanently attached to the rod-shaped member body, but considering the lightness and cost-effectiveness of the main column support base, it is preferable that it be detachable.

[0041] Specifically, for example, it is preferable that the hammer member is divided into two halves that can be opened and closed, and that recesses corresponding to the outer shape of the rod-shaped member body to which it is attached are formed on the inner surface of each half. This makes it easy to attach and detach the hammer member to the rod-shaped member body, and also allows for efficient driving of the rod-shaped member into the ground. Here, it is preferable to provide the hammer member with a fall prevention member that can maintain the hammer member's attachment to the rod-shaped member body. The fall prevention member is not particularly limited as long as it can maintain the closed state of the pair of split portions attached to the rod-shaped member body, and examples include a fixing member such as rubber that can be wrapped around the circumferential direction of the hammer member, and a locking member that connects the open sides of the pair of split portions. This ensures safety even if the hammer member is released from the driver during the driving of the rod-shaped member into the ground, and allows for more efficient driving by throwing it downwards and striking it against the flange.

[0042] Next, a method for installing a support frame using the support frame installation device of the preferred embodiment 1 described above will be explained. The present invention relates to a method for installing a support structure, which uses the above-described support structure installation device and comprises: a rod member driving step in which three or more rod-shaped members of the main column support base are spread radially and each rod-shaped member is driven into the ground; a pile member driving step in which a pile member is driven into the ground in a direction different from the direction in which the rod members are driven, with the pile member locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member; and a main column rod member driving step in which the main column rod-shaped member is suspended in a free state in a hole formed in the center of the fixing plate of the main column support base, dropped to be positioned vertically, and then driven into the ground. The present invention relates to a method for installing a support structure, which may include other steps before the rod member driving step, after the main column rod member driving step, or between each step. For example, after the main column rod member driving step, a pile member driving step for the pile member to be used for the main column rod member may be included.

[0043] The present invention provides a method for installing a support structure that allows the main column rod-shaped member to be stably installed vertically in the ground regardless of the ground conditions when the main column support base is installed (when the main column rod-shaped member is driven into the ground). This method is particularly effective when the ground surface is sloped or uneven, causing the fixing plate of the main column support base to tilt and making it difficult to vertically position the main column rod-shaped member.

[0044] The following describes in detail each step in the mounting method of the present invention. [Rod-shaped member driving process] The rod-shaped member driving process involves driving three or more rod-shaped members of the main column support base into the ground while they are spread out radially (see Figures 5 and 7).

[0045] The driving of three or more rod-shaped members into the ground may be carried out simultaneously by multiple workers, or it may be carried out sequentially by a single worker. It is preferable to drive the rod-shaped member into the ground only to the extent that the flange contacts the ground surface.

[0046] Here, it is preferable to use the hammer member of the present invention described above for driving the rod-shaped member into the ground. That is, it is preferable to attach the hammer member to the tip side of the flange of the rod-shaped member, move it back and forth along the body of the rod-shaped member, and apply force to the flange from the tip side (see Figure 6).

[0047] [Pile member driving process] The pile member driving process involves driving the pile member into the ground in a direction different from the driving direction of the rod-shaped member, while the pile member is locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member (see Figures 2, 4(a), and 4(b)).

[0048] The driving of the pile members used for each rod-shaped member into the ground may be done, for example, simultaneously by multiple workers, or by a single worker sequentially. The pile member preferably has a bent portion at its tip in order to lock onto the flange tip side of a rod-shaped member, for example, and this bent portion can be specifically L-shaped or J-shaped (see Figures 1(c) and 3(b)).

[0049] In this case, if the pile member is L-shaped, it is preferable to drive the pile member into the ground with the through hole formed in the rod-shaped member body, so as to intersect with the flange (see Figures 1(a) to (c) and Figure 2). Furthermore, if the pile member is J-shaped, it is preferable to drive the pile member into the ground with the bent portion locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member (see Figure 4(a)). When using two or more pile members, it is preferable to drive these pile members into the ground with the bent portions locked to the flange tip side of the rod-shaped member (see Figure 4(b)).

[0050] [Main column rod-shaped member driving process] The main column rod-shaped member driving process involves suspending the main column rod-shaped member in a free state through a hole formed in the center of the fixing plate of the main column support base, dropping it to align it vertically, and then driving the main column rod-shaped member into the ground (see Figures 5, 7, and 8).

[0051] One method for suspending the main column-shaped member in a free state is, for example, for a worker to insert the main column-shaped member into a hole in the fixing plate, support the tip of the main column-shaped member above the fixing plate so that the base end of the main column-shaped member does not come into contact with the ground surface, and align its axis vertically with the weight of the main column-shaped member. While maintaining this state, the base end of the main column-shaped member is brought into contact with the ground surface and the base is driven into the ground. It is preferable to use the hammer member described above when driving the main column-shaped member into the ground. This allows the main column rod-shaped members to be positioned vertically regardless of the ground conditions on which the main column support base is installed.

[0052] Next, we will describe a tent setup device equipped with the frame mounting device of the preferred embodiment 1 described above. The tent erection device of the present invention is characterized by comprising a frame erection device according to preferred embodiment 1, an extension rod-shaped member attached to a main column-shaped member, and a tent sheet having a polygonal ceiling portion and side wall portions connected to each side of the ceiling portion, and having rope members at the corners of the ceiling portion.

[0053] (Mounting equipment for the mounting frame) The mounting bracket comprises a main column support base having three or more rod-shaped members, the tips of which are tiltably mounted on a fixing plate having a hole in the center through which a main column rod-shaped member can be inserted, so as to expand radially from a closed state, and a main column rod-shaped member inserted through a hole formed in the center of the fixing plate of the main column support base (see Figures 5, 7, and 8). Furthermore, the mounting frame can also be constructed using only the main column rod-shaped member without using a main column support base (without using three or more rod-shaped members and fixing plates). In this case, for example, it is preferable that the mounting frame is configured to include, for instance, a main column rod-shaped member body and a flange provided at the base of the main column rod-shaped member body, with the base side being driven into the ground, and a pile member that is locked to the flange tip side of the main column rod-shaped member and driven into the ground in a direction different from the direction in which the main column rod-shaped member is driven.

[0054] (Extension rod-shaped member) The extension rod-shaped member is a component that is attached to the main column rod-shaped member. Examples of extension rod-shaped members include tubular members and solid members. Specifically, examples include cylindrical (hollow), square-tube (hollow), columnar, and prismatic members. If weight reduction is considered, cylindrical or square-tube tubular members are preferred.

[0055] The material of the extension rod-shaped member is not particularly limited as long as it can have the required strength, and examples include stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, special steel, etc., and its surface may be subjected to surface treatment such as plating. The size of the extension rod-shaped member can be appropriately selected depending on the application and is not particularly limited, but the length is preferably about 0.5m to 3m, and preferably about 1m to 2m. The diameter (or the length of the diagonal in the case of a square) is preferably about 30mm to 100mm, similar to that of the main column rod-shaped member.

[0056] The extension rod-shaped member is not particularly limited as long as its base end can be connected to the tip of the main column rod-shaped member with its axis aligned. For example, if the extension rod-shaped member is a tubular member, it can be attached by fitting its base end into a small-diameter connecting member provided at the tip of the main column rod-shaped member. Alternatively, if the main column rod-shaped member is a tubular member, it can also be attached by fitting the small-diameter connecting member provided at the base end of the extension rod-shaped member into the tip of the main column rod-shaped member.

[0057] Preferably, the extension rod-shaped member is provided with a member at its tip for guiding a rope member installed at the corner of the ceiling of the tent sheet. Specific examples of the guide member include a ring member (with a hole) and a guide roller with a groove in a concave cross-section into which the rope member can be positioned. This allows the ceiling of the tent sheet to be smoothly raised to the upper end of the extension rod-shaped member. Furthermore, the extension rod-shaped member can be configured to be divided into two or more parts along its length. These divided extension members may be connected by a snap-fit ​​mechanism or by fastening means such as bolts. This allows the height of the extension rod-shaped member to be adjusted according to the intended use. Furthermore, when attaching extension rod-shaped members to the main column rod-shaped members, it is preferable to attach one end of multiple reinforcing ropes to the middle and / or uppermost positions (tip) of the extension rod-shaped member in the height direction, and to fix the other end to the ground using anchors or other fixing members. This prevents the extension rod-shaped members from falling over (see Figure 13).

[0058] (Tent sheet) The tent sheet is a known sheet comprising a polygonal ceiling section and side walls connected to each side of the ceiling section, with rope members at the corners of the ceiling section. Examples of tent sheets include those with durability, waterproofing, soundproofing, and light-blocking properties, as well as sheets with various surface treatments such as coloring. The shape of the ceiling of the tent sheet can be, for example, a triangle, a square, or a polygon with pentagons or more, and a square shape is preferable when multiple tent sheets are connected together. The side walls connected to each side of the ceiling may be integrated with the ceiling, or they may be attached separately to the ceiling, and their height may be the same for all side walls, or they may differ in some or all of them. Furthermore, some of the side walls connected to each side of the ceiling may be omitted. Specifically, for example, if the ceiling is square, one of the four side walls may be omitted, two adjacent side walls may be omitted, and two opposing side walls may be omitted.

[0059] Rope members are components installed at the corners of the ceiling of the tent sheet. The corners of the ceiling where the rope members are installed are, for example, the four corners if the ceiling is rectangular. Examples of rope members include strings or ropes made by twisting natural or synthetic fibers together. The length of the rope member is not particularly limited as long as it can be pulled to raise the tent sheet to the upper end of each extension rod-shaped member. For example, it is preferable that the length be at least twice the height from the ground surface to the upper end of the extension rod-shaped member attached to the main column rod-shaped member.

[0060] Next, we will explain how to set up a tent using the frame installation method described above. The present invention relates to a tent erection method that uses the above-described frame erection method, comprising: a tent sheet preparation step of sequentially folding each side wall of a tent sheet, which has a polygonal ceiling and side walls connected to each side of the ceiling and rope members at the corners of the ceiling, onto the ceiling and arranging it within the tent erection area; a frame erection step of erecting a frame by driving in rod-shaped members, driving in pile members, and driving in main column rod-shaped members into the ground at the corners of the tent erection area, respectively; an extension rod-shaped member attachment step of stretching the rope members of the tent sheet over the tips of extension rod-shaped members and attaching the extension rod-shaped members to the main column rod-shaped members; and a tent sheet erection step of pulling the rope members from outside the tent erection area toward the ground, raising the tent sheet to the upper end position of each extension rod-shaped member, and letting each side wall of the tent sheet hang downward to form the ceiling and side walls of the tent.

[0061] The tent erection method of the present invention is not particularly limited in order, as long as it includes a tent sheet preparation step and a frame installation step. For example, either step of the tent sheet preparation step or the frame installation step may be performed first, or they may be performed simultaneously, but it is most preferable to install the frame after temporarily arranging the tent sheet on a flat surface and confirming the corner locations where the frame will be installed. Furthermore, the tent construction method of the present invention may include other steps before the tent sheet preparation step, after the tent sheet installation step, or in between each step.

[0062] The tent erection method of the present invention comprises a tent sheet preparation step, a frame installation step, an extension rod-shaped member attachment step, and a tent sheet installation step, and is a method that allows for the stable and rapid erection of a tent on the ground regardless of the ground conditions on which the tent is erected.

[0063] The following describes in detail each step of the tent construction method of the present invention (see Figures 10 to 13). [Tent sheet preparation process] The tent sheet preparation process involves sequentially folding each side wall of the tent sheet, which has a polygonal ceiling section and side walls connected to each side of the ceiling section, and rope members at the corners of the ceiling section, onto the ceiling section and arranging it within the tent installation area.

[0064] It is preferable to arrange the tent sheet within the tent installation area by sequentially folding multiple side walls, each connected to a polygonal ceiling section, relative to the upper surface of the ceiling section, and then inverting it so that the folded side walls are positioned on the lower side, i.e., so that the ceiling section is positioned on the upper side. At this time, it is preferable to position the rope members provided at the corners of the ceiling section so that they are located outward from the ceiling section (see Figure 10).

[0065] [Installation process for the mounting frame] The frame installation process involves performing the aforementioned rod-shaped member driving process, pile member driving process, and main column rod-shaped member driving process on the ground at the corners of the tent installation area to install the frame. It is preferable to install the support structure such that the hole formed in the center of the fixing plate (the driving position for the main column-shaped member) is located at a corner of the ceiling. This allows the main column-shaped member to be driven into the ground at the corner of the ceiling, even if the ground is sloped, with its axis approximately vertical (see Figure 11, left).

[0066] Furthermore, as mentioned above, when the mounting frame is constructed using only main column rod-shaped members without using a main column support base (without using three or more rod-shaped members and fixing plates), it is preferable to install the frame by sequentially performing a main column rod-shaped member driving process, in which the main column rod-shaped members are driven into the ground instead of a rod-shaped member driving process, and a pile member driving process, on the ground at the corner of the tent installation area.

[0067] [Extension rod-shaped member installation process] The extension rod-shaped member attachment process involves stretching the rope members of the tent sheet over the tips of the extension rod-shaped members, and attaching the extension rod-shaped members to the main column-shaped members.

[0068] For example, if the main column-shaped member is a tubular member, it can be attached by fitting the base end of the extension rod-shaped member into a small-diameter connecting member provided at the tip of the main column-shaped member. Alternatively, if the main column-shaped member is a tubular member, it can also be attached by fitting the small-diameter connecting member provided at the base end of the extension rod-shaped member into the tip of the main column-shaped member.

[0069] The timing of when the rope members of the tent sheet are attached to the tip of the extension rod-shaped member is not particularly limited, as long as the rope members can be attached to the tip of the extension rod-shaped member. For example, it is preferable to do this before attaching the extension rod-shaped member inside the main column-shaped member, as this makes the attachment work easier (see Figure 11 right, Figure 12 upper left, and Figure 13).

[0070] [Tent sheet installation process] The tent sheet installation process involves pulling rope members from outside the tent installation area toward the ground, raising the tent sheet to the upper end of each extension rod-shaped member, and letting each side wall of the tent sheet hang downwards to form the tent ceiling and side walls.

[0071] For example, in the tent sheet preparation process, each side wall of the tent sheet is positioned below the ceiling, and rope members are pulled from outside the tent installation area toward the ground to raise the ceiling. As a result, the side walls sag under their own weight and are positioned between adjacent extension rod-shaped members in the circumferential direction of the ceiling. After raising the ceiling section to the upper end of each extension rod-shaped member, the height of the ceiling section is fixed by securing the tensioning end of the rope member to the ground with anchors or other fixing members, thereby completing the tent setup (see Figure 12).

[0072] The following describes an embodiment of the mounting device of the present invention with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

[0073] (First Embodiment) Figure 1(a) is a front view of the rod-shaped member of a mounting frame according to the first embodiment of the present invention, (b) is a perspective view of the rod-shaped member of the mounting frame, and (c) is a perspective view of the pile member of the mounting frame. Figure 2 is an explanatory diagram showing the mounting frame in use.

[0074] As shown in Figures 1(a) to 1(c) and Figure 2, the mounting device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention comprises a rod-shaped member 11 and a pile member 12.

[0075] As shown in Figures 1(a), (b), and 2, the rod-shaped member 11 comprises a rod-shaped member body 13 and a flange 14 provided at the base of the rod-shaped member body 13, and the base side is a member that can be driven into the ground. This rod-shaped member 11 is a cylindrical tubular member, and vertically elongated through holes 13a and 13b are formed at opposing positions on both radial sides of the rod-shaped member body 13, respectively, which appear on the tip side and base side of the flange 14, through which the pile member 12 can be inserted.

[0076] As shown in Figures 1(c) and 2, the pile member 12 is L-shaped and is driven into the ground in a direction different from the driving direction of the rod member 11, while being locked to the tip of the flange 14 of the rod member 11. Furthermore, by forming a recess 14a continuous with the through hole 13a and a recess 14b continuous with the through hole 13b on the connection side of the flange 14 to the rod-shaped member body 13, the pile member 12 can be driven into the ground smoothly.

[0077] (Second Embodiment) Figure 3(a) is a front view of the rod-shaped member of the mounting frame according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and (b) is a front view of the pile member of the mounting frame. Figure 4(a) is an explanatory diagram showing the state of use of the mounting frame, and (b) is an explanatory diagram showing the state of use of the mounting frame according to a modified example.

[0078] As shown in Figures 3(a), (b), and 4(a), the mounting device 20 according to the second embodiment of the present invention comprises a rod-shaped member 21 and a pile member 22.

[0079] As shown in Figures 3(a) and 4(a), the rod-shaped member 21 comprises a rod-shaped member body 23 and a flange 24 provided at the base of the rod-shaped member body 23, with the base side driven into the ground. This rod-shaped member 21 is a cylindrical tubular member, and unlike the rod-shaped member 11 described above, the rod-shaped member body 13 does not have a through hole.

[0080] As shown in Figures 3(b) and 4(a), the pile member 22 has a bent portion and is J-shaped, and is driven into the ground in a direction different from the driving direction of the rod member 21 while being locked to the tip side of the flange 24 of the rod member 21. As shown in Figure 4(b), two pile members 22 can also be used for one rod member 21.

[0081] (Third embodiment) Figure 5 is an explanatory diagram showing the usage state of the main column support base that constitutes the mounting device according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

[0082] As shown in Figure 5, the mounting device according to the third embodiment of the present invention is a set that constitutes a main column support base 30, and has three or more rod-shaped members 11, the tips of the three or more rod-shaped members 11 are tiltably mounted on a fixing plate 32, which has a hole 32a formed in the center through which a main column rod-shaped member 31 can be inserted, so as to expand radially from a closed state.

[0083] On the lower surface of the fixed plate 32, mounting portions 33 are provided at equal pitches in the circumferential direction with the hole 32a as the center, and the tip of the rod-shaped member 11 is tiltably attached to these mounting portions 33 using bolts or the like.

[0084] The main column rod-shaped member 31 is a cylindrical tubular member, and a connecting member 31a with a smaller diameter than the main column rod-shaped member 31 is provided at its tip. As a result, if the extension rod-shaped member 34, which will be described later, is a tubular member, the base end of the extension rod-shaped member can be fitted into the connecting member 31a provided on the main column rod-shaped member 31, thereby aligning the axis of the extension rod-shaped member 34 with the main column rod-shaped member 31.

[0085] (Fourth Embodiment) Figure 6 is a perspective view of the hammer member of the mounting device according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

[0086] As shown in Figures 2 and 6, the hammer member 40 of the mounting device according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention is used when driving the rod-shaped member 11 into the ground. It is attached to the tip side of the flange 14 of the rod-shaped member body 13, and is capable of reciprocating along the rod-shaped member body 13. It applies force to the flange 14 from the tip side to drive the rod-shaped member 11 into the ground.

[0087] As shown in Figure 6, the hammer member 40 is divided into two halves 41 and 42 that can be opened and closed, and recesses 41a and 42a corresponding to the outer shape of the rod-shaped member body 13 to which it is attached are formed on the inner surface of each half-section 41 and 42. These split sections 41 and 42 can be opened and closed by a hinge 43 (opening / closing member). In Figure 6, reference numerals 41b and 42b indicate, for example, handle members that the operator grips when moving the hammer member 40 back and forth along the rod-shaped member body 13.

[0088] (Fifth embodiment) Figures 7 and 8 are explanatory diagrams illustrating a method for installing a frame using a frame installation device according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention.

[0089] As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the method for installing a frame using the frame installation device according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention is a method using the main column support base 30 described above, and comprises a rod-shaped member driving step, a pile member driving step, and a main column rod-shaped member driving step.

[0090] First, as shown in the upper part of Figure 7, in the rod-shaped member driving process, the three rod-shaped members 11 (tripods) of the main column support base 30 are spread out radially, and each rod-shaped member 11 is driven into the ground. Next, in the pile member driving process, the pile member 12 is driven into the ground in a direction different from the driving direction of the rod-shaped members 11, with the pile member 12 locked to the tip side of the flange 14 of the rod-shaped member 11 (see Figure 2).

[0091] Next, as shown in the upper part of Figure 7, in the main column rod-shaped member driving process, the main column rod-shaped member 31 is inserted through the hole 32a formed in the center of the fixing plate 32 of the main column support base 30. At this time, the main column rod-shaped member 31 is subjected to force from the worker, so for example, it becomes tilted. Next, as shown in the lower part of Figure 7, the main column-shaped member 31 is suspended in a free state with its base separated from the ground, so that the axis of the main column-shaped member 31 is aligned with the vertical direction.

[0092] As shown in Figure 8, the main column-shaped member 31 is dropped and driven into the ground while maintaining the position in which its axis is aligned vertically. This allows the main column rod-shaped member 31 to be stably installed in the ground along the vertical direction, regardless of the ground conditions on which the main column support base 30 is installed.

[0093] Next, an embodiment using the mounting device of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. (Example 1) Example 1 is an example in which the mounting device 10 of the first embodiment of the present invention is used for work on slopes such as natural ground.

[0094] As shown in Figure 9(a), when performing work on a slope, a frame 50 equipped with a rod-shaped member 11 is installed on the ground at the shoulder of the slope, a lifeline 51 is stretched across the frame 50, one end of the lifeline 51 is fixed to the ground at the shoulder of the slope using an anchor 52, and the other end is attached to a safety belt worn around the waist of the worker 53, thereby suspending the worker 53.

[0095] As shown in Figure 9(b), the frame 50 is equipped with two rod-shaped members 11, the ends of which are crossed and fixed together, and a main rope 51 is stretched over the crossed portion. Here, the pile member 12 is locked to the tip side of the flange 14 of each rod-shaped member 11, and is driven into the ground in a direction different from the direction in which each rod-shaped member 11 is driven into the ground. As a result, each rod-shaped member 11 can be firmly fixed to the ground. Therefore, since the support frame 50 can be installed stably on the ground, the worker 53 can safely perform work on the slope.

[0096] (Example 2) Example 2 is an example in which the main column support base 30, which is composed of the frame installation device according to the third embodiment of the present invention, is used for the work of setting up a tent.

[0097] As shown in Figure 10, first, in the tent sheet preparation process, one or more workers 60 place a tent sheet 61, which has a rectangular ceiling portion 61a and four side wall portions 61b, and rope members 61c at the four corners of the ceiling portion 61a, into the tent installation area R by sequentially folding each side wall portion 61b over the upper surface of the ceiling portion 61a. At this time, the tent sheet 61 is inverted so that its ceiling portion 61a is on the upper side and the side wall portions 61b are on the lower side.

[0098] As shown in the left diagram of Figure 11, in the frame installation process, the rod-shaped member driving process, the pile member driving process, and the main column rod-shaped member driving process described above are performed on the ground at the four corners of the tent installation area R, respectively, to install the frame (main column support base 30).

[0099] As shown in the right diagram of Figure 11, during the extension rod member attachment process, worker 60 stretches the rope member 61c of the tent sheet 61 over the ring member (not shown) provided at the tip of the extension rod member 34, and then attaches the base end of the extension rod member 34 to the tip of the main column rod member 31 (see the upper left diagram of Figure 12). Here, as shown in Figure 13, the extension rod-shaped member 34 attached to the main column-shaped member 31 has one end of several reinforcing ropes 34a attached to the middle and uppermost positions (tip) in the height direction of the extension rod-shaped member 34, and the other end is fixed to the ground using anchors 34b. This prevents the extension rod-shaped member 34 from falling over.

[0100] As shown in Figure 12, during the tent sheet installation process, worker 60 pulls the rope member 61c stretched across the guide roller from outside the tent installation area R toward the ground, raising the tent sheet 61 to the upper end position of each extension rod-shaped member 34, and letting each side wall portion 61b of the tent sheet 61 hang downwards to form the ceiling and side walls of the tent (Figure 12, upper left and upper right views). After raising the ceiling section 61a to the upper end of the extension rod-shaped member 34, the tent is erected by fixing the rope member 61c to the ground with anchors 62 (Figure 12, lower left). After the tent is erected, if necessary, some or all of the side walls 61b can be rolled up to allow entry and exit to the tent (Figure 12, lower right).

[0101] As described above, by using the frame mounting device of the present invention, rod-shaped members can be firmly fixed to the ground. Therefore, the frame mounting method and tent erection method using this frame mounting device can firmly and stably install the frame or tent on the ground. Furthermore, the tent erection method of the present invention allows for the easy and rapid installation of large tents. Thus, because the tent erection method of the present invention allows for rapid tent installation, all steps can be performed by a single worker, or they can be performed efficiently and quickly by multiple workers.

[0102] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, the present invention is not limited in any way to the configurations described in the embodiments described above, and includes other embodiments and modifications that can be considered within the scope of the matters described in the claims. For example, the scope of the present invention also includes cases where some or all of the above embodiments and modifications are combined to constitute the frame installation device, frame installation method and tent construction method of the present invention. [Industrial applicability]

[0103] This invention is industrially useful because it allows rod-shaped members to be firmly fixed to the ground and can be used for setting up tents and the like. [Explanation of Symbols]
