Abstract

An arrangement for preventing the growth of fungus, moss etc. on surfaces exposed to external influences, consists of plates contg. copper, which are fixed to the surfaces.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Verhinderung des Wachstums von Pilzen, Moosen und dgl. auf Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzten Flächen.The invention relates to a device for preventing the growth of Fungi, mosses and the like on surfaces exposed to environmental influences.

Es ist bekannt, daß Kupfersalze in der Landwirtschaft in großem Umfang zur Bekämpfung von Pilzkrankheiten an Kulturpflanzen eingesetzt werden (EP-A- 0261411). Zu diesem Zweck werden die in einer Flüssigkeit gelösten Kupfersalze auf Kulturpflanzen gesprüht. Andererseits ist es auch bekannt, daß sich Pilze und Moose auf großen, Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzten Flächen, wie auf Dächern von Wohnhäusern ansiedeln. Ein solche Art von Dachbegrünung ist natürlich aus mehreren Gründen unerwünscht.It is known that copper salts are widely used in agriculture Control of fungal diseases on crop plants can be used (EP-A- 0261411). For this purpose, the copper salts dissolved in a liquid sprayed on crops. On the other hand, it is also known that mushrooms and Mosses on large areas exposed to environmental influences, such as on the roofs of Settling residential buildings. Such a kind of green roof is of course out undesirable for several reasons.

Ein Grund dafür ist darin zu sehen, daß die Pilze und/oder Moose die Dachbedeckung dadurch zerstören können, daß sie Risse in der Dachbedeckung erzeugen können. Eine Bekämpfung des Pilz- bzw. Moosbewachses auf den Flächen durch Spritzen mit Kupferhaltigen Flüssigkeiten ist einerseits sehr aufwendig und kann andererseits andere Nachteile, wie zu große Konzentration an Kupferionen im Abwasser, mit sich bringen.One reason for this is the fact that the fungi and / or mosses Can destroy roofing by cracking the roofing can generate. A fight against fungal or moss growth on the Areas by spraying with liquids containing copper is very good expensive and can have other disadvantages, such as excessive concentration of copper ions in the wastewater.

Das der Erfindung zugrunde liegende technische Problem besteht darin, eine Vorrichtung zur Verhinderung des Wachstums von Pilzen, Moosen und dgl. anzugeben, bei der die Behandlung keiner ständigen Wiederholung bedarf und welche in einfacher Weise zu realisieren ist.The technical problem underlying the invention is a Device for preventing the growth of fungi, mosses and the like indicate where the treatment does not need to be repeated and which is easy to implement.

Dieses technische Problem ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß auf den Flächen metallisches Kupfer enthaltene Platten angeordnet sind. Diese Vorrichtung hat eine ständige Einwirkung auf Pilze, Moose und dgl., weil die metallisches Kupfer enthaltenen Platten vom Regenwasser in Gegenwart von organischen Medien, welche auf den Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzten Platten ständig vorhanden sind, etwas an gelöst werden und die gelösten Ionen mit dem Regenwasser über die Oberfläche der Flächen fließen. Das Medium trocknet nach dem Regen auf den Flächen an. Die auf den Flächen vorhandenen Cu- Ionen zerstören die auf den Flächen vorhandenen Mikroorganismen und vermeiden damit das Wachstum von Pilzen auf den Oberflächen.This technical problem is solved according to the invention in that the Surfaces containing metallic copper plates are arranged. This The device has a constant effect on fungi, mosses and the like because the metallic copper contained plates from rainwater in the presence of organic media, which are exposed to the environment are always present, something to be solved and the dissolved ions with the Rainwater flows over the surface of the areas. The medium dries after the rain on the surfaces. The Cu existing on the surfaces  Ions destroy the microorganisms and thus avoid the growth of fungi on the surfaces.

Die Erfindung ist nachstehend anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels erläutert, bei dem die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung am Dach eines Wohnhauses verwirklicht ist. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind auf dem Hausdach in regelmäßigen Abständen horizontal verlaufende metallisches Kupfer enthaltende Bänder 1 angeordnet. Die metallisches Kupfer enthaltenden Platten können aber auch eine andere Gestalt aufweisen und in anderer Weise auf der Fläche angeordnet sein. Wichtig ist, daß die Platten vom Regen oder anderen Wassereinflüssen benetzt werden und das z. B. Regenwasser, nachdem es die Platten umspült hat, einen möglichst großen Teil der Fläche benetzt.The invention is explained below using an exemplary embodiment in which the device according to the invention is implemented on the roof of a residential building. In this embodiment, horizontally extending strips 1 containing metallic copper are arranged on the house roof at regular intervals. The plates containing metallic copper can also have a different shape and can be arranged in a different way on the surface. It is important that the plates are wetted by rain or other water influences and that z. B. rainwater, after it has washed around the plates, wets as large a part of the area as possible.
