Description

  The present invention relates to a mounting bracket for a reinforcing brace used for assembling and fixing a reinforcing brace to an upper side of a hanging bolt when a reinforcing brace is installed in an inclined shape between a plurality of hanging bolts suspended from a ceiling casing.

  In general, in the ceiling structure where ceiling panels and ducts are constructed, a base structure that supports a plurality of field receivers (channels) via a plurality of suspension bolts suspended from the ceiling frame is adopted, and In order to maintain the interval between the suspension bolts and improve the earthquake resistance, the suspension bolts are prevented from being shaken by a bracing structure in which a reinforcement brace for swing prevention is installed between the suspension bolts in an inclined manner. When the reinforcing brace is attached, a mounting bracket for fixing to the suspension bolt is used.

By the way, conventionally, when mounting the reinforcing brace in an inclined shape, the mounting bracket used at the tip which is the upper side is an assembly type disclosed in Patent Document 1 or a sandwiching type disclosed in Patent Document 2 Things are known.
The assembly type has no problem in fixing strength as a brace, and it can be mounted only on the lower side while avoiding the mounting work at the high position of the upper mounting bracket, so it has excellent workability. Has the advantage of being. On the other hand, in the sandwich type, the work of forcing the two plates formed separately to sandwich the suspension bolt and the reinforcement brace and tightening the bolt is forced, so the angle between the upper and lower reinforcement braces Although it is difficult to perform adjustment and height alignment work by one person and it is forced to work by two people, it has the advantage that it can be firmly fixed by inserting a suspension bolt, so it can be done alone. The appearance of something that can be installed was desired.

Therefore, like the one disclosed in Patent Document 3, the set of two sheets of Patent Document 2 is shaped like a letter C through a U-shaped suspension bolt fixing portion that fits outside the suspension bolt in plan view. The main body bracket is formed by integrating the plate-shaped pieces that are opposed to each other, and the reinforcing brace connecting bracket is sandwiched between the two plate-shaped pieces, and the bolts are penetrated to fix the bolts. A sandwiching type that has been made to be able to perform is proposed.
However, this is composed of three members, ie, a mounting bracket in which the main body metal fitting and the bolt are separated, and a separate coupling metal fitting. After fitting the bracket, adjust the angle of the reinforcing brace with the coupling bracket interposed between the two plate-shaped pieces, aligning the bolt insertion holes on both plates, inserting the bolt, and temporarily tightening the nut. Align the bottom of the reinforcement brace with a height suitable for fixing, and then hold the body brace and nut with one hand while the reinforcement brace is suspended under its own weight, and tighten the bolt with the other hand. In addition to being forced to work while supporting at a high position, if the position is misaligned, it will be forced to re-align. phase It takes time, work efficiency is extremely bad for the working cost is a problem of poor workability increases.

There are four convenient locations.

  Next, a method of using the mounting bracket 6 will be described with reference to FIG. First, the channel member 5a is attached to the smooth portion 711 of the brace coupling fitting 7 shown in FIG. 3A using the tapping screw 3, or the bolt member 5b is fixed to the rising portion 712 with a nut. At this time, the mounting bracket 6 is in an expanded state, and the suspension bolt fixing portion 62 is smoothly guided to the suspension bolt 2 by the guide piece 63 and is externally fitted to adjust the angle of the reinforcement brace 5 and the reinforcement brace 5. The position is adjusted to a height suitable for fixing the lower side, and while holding the reinforcing brace 5 with one hand, the operation piece 64 and the connection piece 61 in the expanded posture are held and sandwiched and pressed to close. It may be a half-opened shape that can be finely adjusted in the vertical direction, or when the final positioning adjustment is completed, the guide piece 63 is pressed and deformed immediately until it abuts the connecting piece 61 without being half-opened. The reinforcing brace 5 is temporarily fixed to the suspension bolt 2 by being held between the two.

The pinching operation to make the temporarily fixed state is easy to change the press shape by providing the notch hole 621, and the locking projection 623 follows the screw groove of the suspension bolt 2 following the pinching operation. Since the engaging groove 622 is engaged with the thread of the suspension bolt 2, the mounting bracket 6 is firmly attached to the suspension bolt 2 even if both hands are released temporarily and the reinforcing brace 5 is suspended by its own weight. Since it is pinched, there is no misalignment. Since the screw hole 631 and the tap hole 611 are aligned by this temporary fixing operation, the tapping screw 3 is screwed in from the guide piece 63 side to be permanently fixed. At that time, the operation piece 64 is elastically pressed by the joint portion 72 and functions as a steady stop for the reinforcing brace 5 that is suspended by its own weight.
