Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a long body support having a long body arranging portion for holding a long body and a pair of opposing mounting portions extending from both ends of the long body arranging portion, in order to support the long body.

Background Art

[0002] As such a long body support, first, there is one disclosed in Patent Document 1. For the long body support disclosed in Patent Document 1, after arranging a pipe on the band 1, bolts 6 and nuts 7 are assembled and fastened. Therefore, there were the following problems. (1) There is a risk of the bolts 6 and nuts 7 falling during construction. (2) There is a risk of the band 1 falling from the turnbuckle 4 during construction.

[0003] Therefore, as a solution to the problems of the long body support disclosed in Patent Document 1, a long body support disclosed in Patent Document 2 was invented. For the long body support disclosed in Patent Document 2, the bolts 6 and nuts 8 are assembled in advance before arranging the pipe on the band 2. Then, after arranging the pipe, the nut 8 is inserted through the engagement and disengagement insertion hole portion 7B, and after aligning with the position of the locking insertion hole portion 7A of the nut 8, the bolts 6 and nuts 8 are fastened.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0005] According to Patent Document 2, since the bolts 6 and nuts 8 are assembled in advance before the piping is installed on the band 2, it may be possible to solve the problem of bolts, nuts, and bands falling off during construction, as is the case with the long support device disclosed in Patent Document 1.

[0006] However, the long body support device disclosed in Patent Document 2 has the following problems. (1) In order to insert the nut 8 into the insertion / removal hole 7B, it is necessary to tilt the bolt 6 and nut 8 downwards, but it is difficult to tilt the bolt 6 and nut 8 downwards due to the weight of the long support and the weight of the installed piping (see Figure 12). (2) For this reason, it was necessary to lift the piping and remove the weight applied to bolt 6, and then tilt bolt 6 and nut 8 downwards.

[0007] In contrast, Patent Document 3 attempts to solve the above problem by forming the window 9a in the holding member 9 in a lateral orientation along the horizontal direction parallel to the axis of the installed pipe P, and by forming the first locking hole 10 and the second locking hole 11 of the temporary fixing means B in communication in a lateral orientation similar to the window 9a (see Patent Document 3 paragraph

[0026] and Figures 8 and 9).

[0008] However, this installation procedure involves moving the entire band 4 along with the pipe P in the left-right direction relative to the mounting base material 3 fixed to the suspension bolt 1, thereby engaging the shaft portion 5a of the bolt 5 into the second locking hole 11 of the temporary fastening means B, and preventing the band 4 from opening (see Patent Document 3, paragraph

[0030] ). However, while this may be feasible if only one mounting device is to be attached to the pipe P, it seems that such an installation procedure would be extremely difficult if multiple mounting devices are to be attached.

[0009] Therefore, the inventor of the present invention diligently conducted tests and research to solve the above problems and has completed the present invention in order to provide a long-length support device that is safe, stable, and easy to work with, without the risk of bolts, nuts, or bands falling during construction. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] To achieve the above objective, the first invention provides a long body support comprising a long body arrangement portion for holding a long body and a pair of opposing mounting portions extending from both ends of the long body arrangement portion, wherein each of the pair of mounting portions has a perforation for incorporating a fastener, and the perforation of one of the mounting portions forms a functional hole connecting a detachable space that allows the attachment and detachment of a bolt shaft equipped with a nut or bolt head and a non-detachable space that prevents the attachment and detachment of a bolt shaft equipped with a nut or bolt head, and the direction of movement of the mounting portion having the functional hole coincides with the direction of the hole shape of the functional hole. Here, "the direction of the pore shape of the functional pore" refers to the direction from the attachment / detachment space to the non-attachment / detachment space. The second invention is a long-length support device characterized in that the movable distance of the mounting portion having a functional hole is equal to or shorter than the longitudinal length of the functional hole. The third invention is a long-length support device characterized by forming a functional hole that connects an attachment / detachment space and a non-attachment / detachment space in the width direction (lateral direction) of the mounting portion. The fourth invention is a long-length support device characterized by forming a functional hole that connects an attachment / detachment space and a non-attachment / detachment space in the extension direction (vertical direction) of the mounting portion. The fifth invention is a long-length support device characterized in that the attachment / detachment space of the functional hole is shaped to allow the insertion of a nut or bolt head, while the non-attachment / detachment space is shaped to prevent the insertion of a nut or bolt head. The sixth invention is a long body support characterized in that the attachment / detachment space of the functional hole is formed by a notch that allows for the attachment and detachment of a bolt shaft equipped with a nut or bolt head. The seventh invention is a support device for long bodies, characterized in that it includes a long body storage section in which a long body can be temporarily installed in the long body arrangement section. The eighth invention is a long body support device characterized in that the long body arrangement section consists of multiple members connected by connecting parts, and the connecting parts have a movable function so that a pair of mounting parts are displaced relative to each other. The ninth invention is a long-length support device characterized in that the connecting portion is fastened with a rivet joint or bolt and nut (hinge-type band). The tenth invention is a long body support characterized in that the connecting portion consists of a connection between an insertion hole and an insertion projection. The eleventh invention is a support for a long body, characterized in that the long body arrangement portion consists of a band body without a connecting portion (lantern-type band). The twelfth invention is a long body support having a restricting portion that restricts the movement of functional holes in a pair of mounting portions fastened with bolts and nuts. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] The present invention described above has the following effects. (1) A functional hole is formed in one of a pair of mounting parts into which a fastener is incorporated, connecting a removable space that allows the attachment and detachment of a bolt shaft equipped with a nut or bolt head, and a non-removable space that prevents the attachment and detachment of a bolt shaft equipped with a nut or bolt head. The direction of movement of the mounting part having the functional hole coincides with the direction of the shape of the functional hole, so that the fastener can be inserted from the removable space of the functional hole and fastened in the non-removable space very smoothly. (2) Furthermore, if the movable distance of the mounting portion having a functional hole is equal to or shorter than the longitudinal length of the functional hole, the fastener can be inserted from the attachment / detachment space of the functional hole and fastened in the non-attachment / detachment space more smoothly. (3) Furthermore, the elongated body arrangement section consists of multiple members connected by a connecting section, and the connecting section has a movable function, which makes it easier for the pair of mounting sections to change relative to each other, and ensures that the fastener can be inserted from the attachment / detachment space of the functional hole and fastened in the non-attachment / detachment space to be carried out reliably and smoothly. (4) As a result, the series of operations of installing the pipe into the long-length mounting section (band) with the bolts and nuts assembled, and then fastening the bolts and nuts, can be carried out safely, stably, and quickly. That is, like the long body support disclosed in Patent Document 2, without tilting the pipe-carrying bolts and nuts, just by moving one mounting portion in the direction of the hole shape of the functional hole (horizontal or vertical) (including the case where the pair of mounting portions are relatively displaced), the bolts and nuts can be inserted into the functional hole as they are (attachment / detachment space), and can be slid from there and locked (non-attachment / detachment space).

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0013] Embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. Figures 1 to 3 are explanatory diagrams showing a first embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. As shown in Figure 1, the elongated body support 10A is attached to a turnbuckle 75 that connects to a suspension member 70 hanging from a building structure 90 in order to support an elongated body 80 such as a pipe or cable, and comprises an elongated body arrangement section 20 that holds the elongated body, and a pair of opposing mounting sections 30, 40 that extend from both ends of the elongated body arrangement section 20.

[0014] The elongated body arrangement section 20 is formed by rotatably connecting curved band bodies 21 and 22 with a connecting section 25. Here, the connecting portion 25 is connected to the band body 21 so that the band body 22 can move in the direction of arrangement of the long body (longitudinal direction).

[0015] In other words, the elongated support member 10A shown in Figure 1 is characterized by fastening the connecting portion 25 of the elongated support member 20 with a rivet joint 26. More specifically, the ends of the band bodies 21 and 22 that constitute the connecting section 25 are processed into cylindrical pipes 23 and 24, and a rivet joint 26 is passed through them to form a hinge. However, by providing play (gap) between pipes 23 and 24, pipe 23 can slide on the axis of the rivet joint 26. Moreover, the combination of the cylindrical shape of the rivet joint 26 (axis) and the cylindrical shapes of pipes 23 and 24 makes the sliding extremely smooth. As a result, by fastening the connecting section 25 with the rivet joint 26, the band body 22 is connected to the band body 21 so that it can reliably slide in the width direction of the mounting sections 30 and 40.

[0016] The pair of mounting parts 30 and 40 each have holes for incorporating a fastener, a bolt 50 and a nut 55. One mounting part 30 has a hole 31 large enough to allow the bolt shaft 52 of the bolt 50 to pass through. The other mounting part 40, which abuts the nut 55, has a functional hole 41 formed by connecting an attachment / detachment space 42 shaped to allow the nut 55 to pass through, and a non-attachment / detachment space 43 shaped to prevent the nut 55 from passing through. In the illustration, the functional hole 41 is formed in the shape of a weight or a gourd, but it is not limited to these shapes.

[0017] Here, the direction of the shape of the functional hole 41 (the direction in which the attachment / detachment space 42 and the non-attachment / detachment space 43 are connected) and the direction of movement of the mounting portion 40 are the same. Furthermore, the relationship between the movable distance of the mounting portion 40 and the length of the functional hole 41 in the longitudinal direction (connection direction) is such that the movable distance of the mounting portion 40 = the length of the functional hole 41 in the longitudinal direction (connection direction), or the movable distance of the mounting portion 40 > the length of the functional hole 41 in the longitudinal direction (connection direction) (the same applies to other embodiments).

[0018] As shown in Figure 2, the pair of mounting parts 30 and 40 are connected by a connecting part 25 of the elongated body arrangement part 20 so that the band bodies 21 and 22 are movable, allowing relative displacement in the direction of the hole shape of the functional hole 41. In this way, the elongated body support 10A can first align the attachment / detachment space 42 of the functional hole 41 with the nut 55 and insert the nut 55, and then move the mounting part 40 to move the nut 55 (bolt shaft 52) ​​to the non-attachment / detachment space 43 of the functional hole 41. At this time, since the hole 31 of one mounting part 30 and the attachment / detachment space 42 of the functional hole 41 of the other mounting part 40 are on the same axis (middle diagram in Figure 2), the bolt 50 and nut 55 can be inserted without tilting. Also, by sliding the functional hole 41, the hole 31 and the non-attachment / detachment space 43 can be positioned on the same axis (right diagram in Figure 2), after which the bolt 50 and nut 55 can be fastened. In the illustration, a nut 55 is inserted into the attachment / detachment space 42, but a bolt head 51 may also be inserted (the same applies to other embodiments).

[0019] Furthermore, as shown in the left diagram of Figure 2, the elongated support member 10A is characterized by the fact that the connecting portion 25 of the elongated arrangement portion 20 is offset from the central portion. This allows for the temporary installation of long bodies. Furthermore, since there is no connecting section 25 at the lowest part that directly receives the load of the long body, the movement of the connecting section 25 and the mounting section 40 becomes smoother.

[0020] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 3, the attachment / detachment space 42 for the functional hole 41 may be formed by a notch, resulting in a notched hole with a cutout shape for the functional hole 41. This allows the bolt shaft 52 equipped with a nut 55 to be inserted through the notch.

[0021] Furthermore, in the elongated support 10A of the first embodiment shown in Figure 1, the restricting portion 35 abuts against the functional hole 41, thereby restricting the relative displacement of the pair of mounting portions 30 and 40. As a result, in the mounting portions 30 and 40 fastened by bolts 50 and nuts 55, the attachment / detachment space 42 of the functional hole 41 is restricted from moving toward the nut 41, preventing the nut 41 from coming out of the attachment / detachment space 42.

[0022] Figures 4 and 5 are explanatory diagrams showing a second embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. The difference between the elongated body support 10B of the second embodiment shown in Figure 4 and the elongated body support 10A of the first embodiment is the relative displacement in the direction of the hole shape of the functional hole 41 by the pair of mounting parts 30 and 40. As shown in Figure 5, the connecting part 25 of the elongated body arrangement part 20 is not such that the band body 22 slides relative to the band body 21 in the width direction of the mounting part (arrangement direction of the elongated body), but rather that the band body 22 rotates relative to the band body 21. In Figure 5, when connected by a hinge, a large clearance is provided in the hinge structure of the band body 22 to allow the band body 22 to rotate. This makes it possible to obtain the same function and effect as the first embodiment without providing a complex structure. In this case, the functional hole 41 shown in the figure aligns with the rotational direction of the band body 22 and its connection direction, so unlike the functional hole of the first embodiment shown in Figure 2 (where the attachment / detachment space 42 and non-attachment / detachment space 43 are connected in a horizontal line), it extends diagonally as shown in the lower part of Figure 5 (where the attachment / detachment space 42 and non-attachment / detachment space 43 are connected diagonally).

[0023] Figures 6 and 7 are explanatory diagrams showing a third embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. The difference between the elongated support 10C of the third embodiment, shown in Figure 6, and the elongated support 10A of the first embodiment and the elongated support 10B of the second embodiment lies in the direction of relative displacement of the pair of mounting parts 30 and 40. In the elongated support 10C, the direction of relative displacement of the pair of mounting parts 30 and 40 is aligned with the direction of extension of the mounting parts 30 and 40. Accordingly, the shape of the functional hole 41 is also aligned with the direction of extension of the mounting parts 30 and 40. As a result, similar to the first and second embodiments, the direction in which the nut 55 is moved and the direction in which the mounting part 40 is movable are the same, allowing the bolt 50 and nut 55 to be fastened smoothly without tilting them.

[0024] However, as shown in Figure 7, when the direction of relative displacement of the pair of mounting parts 30 and 40 is the direction of extension of the mounting parts 30 and 40, the band body 22 is characterized by being displaced relative to it with rotation rather than in a linear manner.

[0025] Figure 8 is an explanatory diagram showing a fourth embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. The elongated body support 10D of the fourth embodiment shown in Figure 8 is characterized in that the connecting portion 25 of the elongated body arrangement portion 20 consists of a connection between an insertion hole and an insertion projection (=assembled band structure). More specifically, insertion holes 28 and insertion projections 27 are formed at the ends of the band bodies 21 and 22 that constitute the connecting portion 25, respectively, and the assembled connecting portion is formed by combining these insertion holes 27 and insertion projections 28. However, by providing play (gap) between the insertion holes 27 and insertion projections 28, the insertion holes 27 and insertion projections 28 become slidable relative to each other. As a result, by connecting the connecting portion 25 to the insertion holes 27 and insertion projections 28, the band body 22 is connected to the band body 21 so that it can slide in the width direction of the mounting portions 30 and 40.

[0026] Figure 9 is an explanatory diagram showing a fifth embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. Up to the fourth embodiment, the connecting portion 25 of the elongated body arrangement portion 20 is intentionally given a movable function in order to displace the pair of mounting portions 30 and 40 relative to each other. In contrast, the elongated body support 10E of the fifth embodiment is characterized by using a hinge-type band without a large clearance as the elongated body arrangement portion 20.

[0027] Even if the elongated body mounting section 20 consists of an existing hinged band, the mounting section 40 has some range of motion due to the hinged connecting section. The direction of this range of motion is aligned with the direction of the shape of the functional hole 41 (the direction in which the attachment / detachment space 42 and the non-attachment / detachment space 43 are connected). This makes it possible to move the mounting portion 40, insert the nut 55 into the attachment / detachment space 42, and then move it to the non-attachment / detachment space 43. Furthermore, in addition to the direction of the movable range of the mounting portion 40, by making the distance of the movable range of the mounting portion 40 equal to or longer than the length in the longitudinal direction (connection direction) of the functional hole 41, fastening with the bolt 50 and nut 55 can be performed more reliably and smoothly.

[0028] Furthermore, even in cases where a large clearance is not provided in the long body mounting section 20, as in the long body support 10E, it is possible to fasten the mounting sections 30 and 40 with fasteners while the bolt 50 and nut 55 remain assembled by shortening the length of the functional hole 41 in the longitudinal direction or by orienting the fastener bolt 50 sideways.

[0029] Figure 10 is an explanatory diagram showing a sixth embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. The elongated body mounting section 20 of the elongated body support 10F shown in Figure 10 is a lantern-type band and consists of a single band without connecting parts. However, since the band is elastic, the mounting section 40 has a certain range of motion. Therefore, similar to the fifth embodiment, this range of motion was used to align the direction of the range of motion with the direction of the shape of the functional hole 41 (the direction in which the attachment / detachment space 42 and the non-attachment / detachment space 43 are connected). This made it possible to achieve the same result as in the fifth embodiment.

[0030] Figure 11 is an explanatory diagram showing a seventh embodiment of the suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention. The long support member 10G of the seventh embodiment shown in Figure 11 is a fitting used to fix horizontal pipes such as drain pipes, and is generally called a level band. The upper band 60 of the elongated support member 10G has perforations on both the left and right ends, with the right end being a functional hole 61 and the left end being an adjustment hole 65. The functional hole 61 is provided with a removable space 62 that allows insertion of a nut 69 of a threaded rod 68 provided on the base 67, and a non-removable space 63 that prevents insertion of the nut 69. On the other hand, the adjustment hole 65 is an elongated hole that extends in the direction of connection with the functional hole 61. By providing such functional holes 61 and adjustment holes 65, the nut 69 can be inserted into the attachment / detachment space 62, and then the upper band 60 can be slid to position the nut 69 in the non-attachment / detachment space 63. This allows the long body support 10G to be attached to the base 67 and fastened to the lower band 64 even with the nut 69 attached to the threaded rod 68. [Industrial applicability]

[0031] The suspension support device for long objects according to the present invention can be widely used as a support device for long objects such as pipes and cables, and can be used as a support material for long objects regardless of the name "support device". [Explanation of Symbols]
