Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an adjuster for a building panel.

[Conventional technology]

For example, a ceiling panel provided on a ceiling portion of a building is provided below a ceiling base made of concrete, wood, ALC, metal, or the like, and an adjustable leveler is used to attach the panel.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

FIGS. 13 to 15 show one example. No.
The adjuster shown in FIG. 13 is composed of a receiving piece 2 which is a piece of small wood embedded in a ceiling base 1 made of concrete and a pair of wedge pieces, and an adjuster body 3, 3 arranged below the receiving piece 2. Consists of The adjuster adjusts the level of the ceiling panel 4 by rubbing the adjuster bodies 3 together, and fixes and supports the ceiling panel 4 while maintaining the level by fixing means such as gluing or nails 5 applied after the adjustment. It has become. The adjuster shown in FIG. 14 is constituted by an anchor 11 made of a plastic material embedded in a ceiling base 10 made of concrete and a screw 12 screwed into the anchor, and a screw hole formed in the anchor 11 By screwing the screws 12 on the ceiling panel side into 11a, the ceiling panel can be attached to the ceiling base 10 with a level adjustable. The adjuster shown in FIG. 15 is composed of a receiving piece 16 made of a plastic material adhered to a ceiling base 15 also made of concrete, and an adjuster body 17 made of a soft plastic screwed into a screw hole 16a of the piece 16. ing. The adjuster body 17 is a receiving piece
It is possible to adjust the level of the ceiling panel 18 by moving back and forth to 15, and it is possible to fix the panel 18 to the ceiling base 15 side by driving nails 19 through the ceiling panel 18 from the indoor side . According to these adjusters, ceiling panels cannot be fixed efficiently. That is, in FIGS. 13 and 15, the mating target (adjuster bodies 3 and 17) is hidden by the ceiling panels 4 and 18, and the one shown in FIG. This is because the ceiling panel also hinders the work for adjusting the screw 12. In addition, according to each of the above methods, the level can be adjusted. However, once the ceiling panel is fixed with nails or the like, the ceiling panel cannot be subsequently adjusted in position on a plane. That is, according to the adjuster shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14, nailing is performed, and according to the adjuster shown in FIG. 14, the position of the ceiling panel is determined simply by screwing.

In view of the above circumstances, the subject of the present invention is:
It is an object of the present invention to efficiently and reliably perform a work for fixing a panel, and to enable free and accurate positioning of a panel on a plane at any time, in addition to a level adjustment function.

[Means for solving the problem]

In order to solve the above problem, the present invention is an adjuster that adjusts the position of the building panel when the building panel is mounted on the supporting surface, the adjuster being attached to the supporting surface, and orthogonal to the supporting surface. A receiving piece having a screw extending in a direction in which the receiving piece is screwed; ,
An outer peripheral portion of the adjuster main body has a circular engaging portion that is locked to an attached portion of the building panel, and a center of the circular engaging portion of the adjuster main body is a screw of the receiving piece. It is eccentric with respect to the center of the screw to be screwed.

Here, the support surface means a surface serving as a wall-shaped base on which a building panel is attached in building construction, such as a ceiling surface, a floor space, a partition surface, and the like.

(Operation)

When the receiving piece is attached to a support surface such as a ceiling surface, and the screws of the adjuster body are screwed into the screws of the receiving piece, the adjuster body is attached to the receiving piece, that is, the supporting surface.
If the screwing position of the screw, that is, the screwing depth is adjusted, the position of the adjuster body with respect to the receiving piece changes in the center axis direction of the screw. In other words, the adjuster body approaches or moves away from the support surface.

Next, when the adhered portion of the building panel is engaged with the circular engaging portion of the adjuster body, the building panel is attached to the adjuster body, and the position of the building panel is determined.
If the architectural panels are respectively engaged with the circular engaging portions of the adjuster body from both sides in the diameter direction, the positions of the adjacent architectural panels are determined.

By adjusting the screwing position of the adjuster main body with respect to the receiving piece, it becomes possible to adjust the position of the building panel positioned by the adjuster main body in both directions perpendicular to and parallel to the support surface. In other words, level adjustment and plane alignment are achieved simultaneously.

That is, the center position of the circular engaging portion that is eccentric with respect to the center of the screw of the adjuster body is
When rotated within the range of 360 °, the position of the architectural panel positioned in engagement with the circular engagement portion also changes. Within the transformation amount between the screw center and the circular engagement part center,
It is possible to arbitrarily adjust the position of the building panel in the plane direction.

At this time, when the screw of the adjuster body rotates with respect to the screw of the receiving piece, the position of the adjuster body with respect to the receiving piece in the screw axis direction also slightly changes. for that reason,
The position of the building panel in a direction perpendicular to the support surface also varies. However, if the rotation is performed within 360 °, that is, within one pitch, the positional change of the building panel in the direction orthogonal to the support surface is slight and negligible in practical use.

Next, when the screw of the adjuster body is rotated by exactly one pitch with respect to the screw of the receiving piece, the position of the building panel with respect to the support surface approaches or moves away by one pitch of the screw. In addition, the positional relationship between the center of the screw of the adjuster body and the center of the circular engaging portion does not change before and after the rotation. By performing such screwing position adjustment for each pitch, only the position of the building panel in the direction orthogonal to the support surface is changed stepwise by one pitch without changing the position of the building panel in the surface direction at all. Can be adjusted. In this case, the position cannot be adjusted more finely than one pitch, but it can be sufficiently achieved as long as the required accuracy of the mounting position in a normal building panel is about the same.

As described above, the position adjustment of the screw of the adjuster body with respect to the screw of the receiving piece in the plane direction of the building panel by turning within 360 °, and the surface of the building panel by turning by one pitch unit. The combination of the position adjustment in the orthogonal direction and the position of the building panel can be adjusted substantially freely in both the surface direction and the direction orthogonal to the surface.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings showing the embodiments.

1 to 3 show a first embodiment of an adjuster for a building panel according to the present invention. The adjuster includes a receiving piece 20 and an adjuster body 25 as shown in these figures. The receiving piece
Reference numeral 20 denotes a seat plate 21 and a screw shaft 22 which projects vertically from the center of one side surface of the seat plate 21. The outer circumference of the screw shaft 22 is a screw 22a
The screw shaft 22 has a plurality of nail holes 22b. This screw shaft 2
The center of 2 is O '. The adjuster body 25 is a disk-shaped piece, and its center is O. The adjuster main body 25 has a screw hole 26 at an eccentric position and is screwed to the screw shaft 22 so as to be able to advance and retreat. On the outer peripheral portion of the adjuster main body 25, a concentric engagement projection 27 is provided integrally with the center O, and the projection 27 is provided along a side of the surface of the ceiling panel 30 on the rear side of the ceiling panel. Engagement groove (attached portion) 32 of attached attached member 31
Are adapted to engage. As shown in FIG. 4, the receiving piece 35 may be formed with a screw hole 36, and the adjuster body 38 may be provided with a screw shaft 39. The ceiling panels 30, 30 may be combined in a real structure.

The receiving piece 20 is attached to a ceiling base 24 made of concrete or the like by nailing or using the nail hole 22b. Adhesion and nailing may be used together. With this attachment, the seat plate 21 is coupled to the bottom surface of the ceiling base 24, and the screw shaft 22 projects downward. The adjuster main body 25 is attached so as to be screwed to the screw shaft 22. The adjuster main body 25 can advance and retreat with respect to the screw shaft 22 as it rotates, and the engaging protrusion 27 whose center is O can rotate eccentrically with respect to the center O '. The engaging projections 27 are provided with engaging grooves of the adhered members 31, 31 provided on the ceiling panels 33, 30, respectively.
The panels 30, 30 are mounted in abutting manner such that the panels 32, 32 engage. Now, before the position adjustment by the adjuster main body 25 is performed, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the center O 'of the receiving piece 20 is set to the center line L where the both ceiling panels 30 and 30 abut each other by e. If it is deviated, in this state, the cores of the ceiling panels 30 and 30 remain off the core, which is inconvenient. However, since the center O of the adjuster body 25 is eccentric with respect to the center O 'of the screw shaft 22, if the adjuster body is rotated, the above-mentioned amount e can be absorbed. That is, if the center O of the adjuster main body 25 is rotated so as to be on the core L as specified, there is substantially no deviation.
If the ceiling panel 30 is engaged with the engagement groove 32 on the side of the ceiling panel 30 via the engagement protrusion 27 of the adjuster body 25 coming on the core L, the butt line of the both ceiling panels 30, 30 will be aligned with the core L Will match up. The same applies to the embodiment shown in FIG.

5 to 7 show the second embodiment. In the above-described embodiment, the ceiling panel is provided with an elongated member to be attached, and the adjuster main body is configured assuming that the adjuster main body is engaged at an arbitrary position in the extending direction of the engagement groove. This can be applied to the corners of the floorboards 40 as shown in FIG. In this case, at each corner portion of the four floor plates 40, an adherend member 42 having a 1/4 arc shape and having an engagement groove 41 formed on an inner peripheral portion thereof is fixed with screws 43, It is assumed that the donut-shaped adhered members 42 formed by these adhered members 42 are configured to engage with the engaging projections 45 of the adjuster body 44 for absorbing the displacement of the receiving piece 46. Is done. However, the attaching member 42 ...
Is a donut shape having a circular engagement groove 41, the center O of the adjuster main body 44 does not coincide with the corner abutting portion of the floor plate 40 as shown by a solid line, but is slightly shifted as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. Inconvenience arises in the case of. That is,
Although the engagement grooves 41 can be aligned with the adjuster body 44 'shown by the two-dot chain line, the center of the surface formed by the engagement grooves 41 is shifted from the target center, and 40
The corner-matching point of ... deviates from the intended position. The second embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 to 7 is designed to avoid such inconvenience. In other words, at each corner of the floor panel 50, a partially elliptical adhered members 51 that are brought together to form an elliptical shape are attached with screws 52. On the inner periphery of each of the adhered members 51, an engagement groove 53 which also becomes an elliptical shape by being brought together is formed.
Thus, even if the center O of the adjuster body 55 positioned to absorb the shift of the receiving piece 54 is shifted to the center C of the corner of the floor plate 50, the engaging groove 53 is oval. The engagement of the adhered member 51 with the engagement projection 56 of the projection 55 is guaranteed, and the floor plates 50 are constructed so that the center is always at the target position C. In the above description, a floor plate is used as an example, but a ceiling plate and side walls may be used.

That is, the adjuster main body 60 includes a screw piece 62 having a screw 61 formed therein, and a base end portion attached to a position eccentric to the screw 61 of the piece 62 so that the adjuster main body 60 is rotatable in the same direction as the axial center of the screw 61. It has a shaft 63 extending towards the center.
The lower end of the coaxial 63 is an engaging disc 64 having an engaging projection 64a on the outer peripheral portion. As shown in FIG. 10, the adjuster main body 60 can move forward and backward by screwing the screw 61 into a receiving piece 66 attached to a ceiling base 65, and
64 can move eccentrically. The adjuster body 60 also receives the receiving piece 66 in the same manner as in each of the above embodiments.
The misalignment can be absorbed by eccentricity, and the cores of the ceiling panels 67, 67 can be adjusted as intended. In this embodiment, the engaging disc 64 does not directly engage with the engaging groove 68 of the ceiling panel 67, but engages with the engaging groove 64.

FIG. 11 shows a fourth embodiment. This embodiment is a modification of the third embodiment. That is, the adjuster body 70 is a cylindrical screw piece having a screw 71.
72 and a shaft 73 extending from the center of the piece and having a crank shape. The lower end of the coaxial 73 is an engagement plate 74 eccentric to the screw 71. This embodiment uses the eccentric shaft 73
Only the adjustment is performed, and the configuration of the adjuster body is simplified.
