る。 The known holder shown here has a cylindrical main body 101 that holds the rod A in a penetrating manner, and an engaging portion 103 that is divided into two parts extending perpendicularly from the outer peripheral surface of the main body. The insertion leg 102 has a slit 106 for guiding the inserter 105 into the cut 104 of the engagement leg, and the inserter 105 has a main body 10.
1, and a wedge portion 108 that fits into the cut 104 of the engaging leg 102 and prevents the engaging leg from contracting in diameter. Insert the engaging leg 102 of the holder into the mounting hole 109 drilled in panel B while reducing the diameter, and after installing the engaging leg so that it can rotate freely about the fulcrum, insert the inserter 105 into the slit 106. to communicate the through hole 107 with the hollow part of the main body 101, and at the same time insert the wedge portion 108 into the cut 4 to prevent the diameter of the engaging leg from decreasing.Next, the rod A is passed through the main body 101 and the through hole 107 is opened. It is made to penetrate and be held so that it can be attached to panel B.

合があつた。 As mentioned above, this holder is suitable for use as a rod holder in that the inserter can be inserted into the insertion leg that can be reduced in diameter, and the diameter can be reduced arbitrarily within the mounting hole of the panel to prevent it from coming out. However, this conventional holder has the drawback that the holder main body and the inserter are separate bodies and must be assembled individually as described above, making it difficult to use. There were also problems in terms of storage and management.

ロツドの保持具を提供することにある。 The present invention was devised in view of the problems with conventional holders and to improve them.
The inserter, which was conventionally separate from the holder body, is connected to the main body part with a flexible connecting piece, making it a single part, eliminating the possibility of losing the inserter, and allowing the inserter to always accompany the main body part. Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a rod holder that facilitates the combination of the two and improves workability.

参照）。 Now, the holder of the present invention is constructed as described above, and when manufactured, it is manufactured in the unfolded state shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, and can be integrally molded using an injection molding machine. When using this, first, insert the inserter 4 which is connected through the connecting piece 5 into the slit 11 from above the holding pieces 2, 2 by folding it back, so that the tip of the inserter 4 is inserted into the base 1. Stop it when it reaches the end and leave it in a temporary state (see Figure 6).

この挿入子の仮止めは使用時の作業性を高める
上で有効であり、保管及び製品の管理時にはこの
状態にしておくとよい。 This temporary fixing of the inserter is effective in improving workability during use, and it is preferable to keep it in this state during storage and product management.

ルＢからの抜出しを阻止することになる。 Next, for actual installation, first push the engaging leg 3 into the mounting hole b drilled in panel B and latch the engaging part 13 to obtain a temporary locked state, and then insert the inserter 4 in advance. As shown in FIG. 6, the rod A is placed between the holding pieces 2 and 2, and while pushing both pieces apart, the rod A is fitted into the holding part 9 and fixed in a holding manner. At this time, the inserter 4 that has been inserted into the slit 11 in advance is pushed further as the rod A is pushed in, enters the cut 12 following the slit, and enters the insertion leg 3 that has entered the attachment hole b. It becomes embedded, making it impossible to reduce its diameter and preventing it from being pulled out from panel B.

その後、保持片２，２の上にキヤツプ６を被せ
前述した如く爪１０に係入片１８を掛止めて保持
片の開放を拘束し、保持部９に収めたロツドを固
定する（第７図参照）。 Thereafter, the cap 6 is placed over the holding pieces 2, 2, and the engaging piece 18 is hooked onto the claw 10 as described above to restrain the holding pieces from opening, thereby fixing the rod housed in the holding part 9 (see Fig. 7). reference).

以上の様に、本考案の保持具は挿入子４の切割

確実な係止が得られることから簡単な引抜きによ
つてパネルから脱れることがなく、この係入脚を
支点に回動させても、充分係止状態を保つことが
できるものとなつている。 As described above, the retainer of the present invention makes it impossible to pull out the engagement leg 3 by fitting the inserter 4 into the cutout, and securely locks it. Even if the locking leg is rotated around the fulcrum, the locking state can be maintained satisfactorily.

そして、係入脚を拘束する挿入子４は連結片５
によつて本体たる基体１に連結され一体であるた

トに入り込むことから極めて円滑に両者の組合せ
が得られ、作業を容易にする利点がある。 The inserter 4 that restrains the engaging leg is connected to the connecting piece 5.
Since it is connected to the base 1, which is the main body, by means of a holder, it does not get lost unlike conventional holders of this kind, and since it is supported by a connecting piece that has some rigidity, it can be guided. If it faces the slit first, it enters the slit from the tip while keeping the direction constant, so the combination of the two can be obtained extremely smoothly, which has the advantage of making the work easier.

そして、更に本考案においては前述した様に挿
入子４を仮止めにしておくことによつて、ロツド
Ａの取付けに当り、係入脚３をパネルの取付孔ｂ

を拘束できるため、極めて迅速な作業ができる利
点がある。 Furthermore, in the present invention, by temporarily fixing the inserter 4 as described above, when installing the rod A, the engaging leg 3 is inserted into the mounting hole b of the panel.
By simply inserting the rod between the retaining pieces after the rod has been engaged, the rod can be automatically embedded in the cutout 12 and the diameter reduction of the engagement leg 3 can be restrained, which has the advantage of allowing extremely quick work.

勿論、前記実施例においてキヤツプ６はヒンジ
部７を支点に折返し被せる如く押圧すれば保持片
に嵌着できるので、作業上の利点は大である。 Of course, in the embodiment described above, the cap 6 can be fitted onto the holding piece by folding the hinge part 7 around the fulcrum and pressing the cap 6 over the holding piece, which is a great advantage in terms of operation.
