Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fan cap to be provided in the ridge or ridge area for rear ventilation of roofs with a fastening area, a central area having air passage openings and an edge area, the air passage openings being designed as chimney-like elongated hole openings running parallel to the longitudinal direction of the cap and the opening planes of the air passage openings preferably at least essentially parallel run to the level of the central area.
  • Fan caps of the type in question have been known for some time; they are arranged in the ridge or ridge area of a roof to avoid possible damage caused by moisture formation.
  • the air inlet or outlet openings for such roofs are generally provided in the eaves and ridge area.
  • a fan cap of the type in question in which the air passage openings are approximately rectangular and the longer side of which runs parallel to the ridge.
  • the air passage openings are surrounded by an upstanding bead. Starting from this edge bead provided near the top of the cap, the air passage openings extend like a chimney far below the cap underside, air holes being provided in the walls delimiting the air passage openings to ensure an air flow.
  • a fan cap is known ( DE - A - 35 11 798 ), in which the edge region is profiled at right angles in the longitudinal direction in a meandering or undulating manner. This creates depressions that form the air flow channels. Chimney-like air passage openings are provided in the central area.
  • the known fan cap, from which the invention is based, is not optimally designed in terms of flow technology, so that the desired vacuum formation, which is necessary for adequate ventilation of a roof space, is not always guaranteed under certain conditions. If this necessary vacuum formation is not achieved, however, the roof space is inadequately vented so that moisture remains in it, which can lead to considerable damage to the roof structure over time.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of designing and developing the known fan cap in such a way that a very pronounced vacuum formation is achieved largely independently of the respective inflow direction and in particular also with low inflow and thus a particularly effective roof ventilation is achieved.
  • the problem outlined above is now achieved in that at least some of the air passage openings are preceded by a pivotally mounted flap, which can be pivoted in the event of an inflow from the outside into a position which changes the free flow cross section for the incoming air and can be reset in particular by its own weight. Due to this design, flow and pressure conditions always arise with inflows from the most varied directions, which particularly effectively promote the desired air circulation from the inside to the outside.
  • the flaps are pivoted when there is an air flow, this constant pivoting also ensuring mobility in the long term.
  • the flaps can be pivoted about horizontal axes or also about vertical axes. In the case of a pivotable mounting about vertical axes, several, preferably two, partial flaps can also be provided per air passage opening.
  • transverse webs on the outer surface of the cap, in particular to support the ridge tiles, and to arrange the air passage openings and the associated flaps between two such webs.
  • the webs running in the transverse direction promote the lifting of the flaps and always ensure clear flow guidance.
  • the fan cap according to the invention is advantageously of central symmetry, at least when viewed in the longitudinal direction. If the fan cap is flowed against from one side, the flaps on this side are raised, while the flaps on the other, opposite, outflow side remain in their starting position.
  • the fastening area 1 is provided on the edge with a gradation 13 of, for example, approximately 1 mm, the width of which is selected such that the non-stepped central area is approximately 30 mm and the entire central area is approximately 50 mm, so that adapted supports for different beam widths are created.
  • a gradation 13 of, for example, approximately 1 mm, the width of which is selected such that the non-stepped central area is approximately 30 mm and the entire central area is approximately 50 mm, so that adapted supports for different beam widths are created.
  • the central region 2 of the fan cap which is made of plastic material, is particularly important for the desired cap suction function, since the air passage openings 4 designed as elongated holes are provided here.
  • the air passage openings 4 are designed like a chimney, whereby the suction function is considerably improved, and extend in the form of an elongated row of holes with a small mutual distance over the length of the cap.
  • the mouth plane 5 of each air passage opening 4 runs essentially parallel to the plane of the central region 2, and the longitudinal walls 7, 8 of the individual air passage openings 4 have different inclinations with respect to the plane of the central region 2, such that in the direction of the flow running from the inside to the outside sets a predeterminable reduction in cross-section.
  • the longitudinal wall 7 of the air passage opening 4 located on the outer edge is more inclined than the opposite longitudinal wall 8.
  • the edge region 3 is provided with support bumps 10 which are formed from the material of the edge region 3 by appropriate deformation.
  • the support bumps 10 can have different heights depending on the particular application; however, it is sufficient to provide two support hump heights, for example support hump 10 with a height of 6 mm or support hump 10 with a height of 12 mm.
  • the support bumps 10 preferably have a more inclined wall on the inflow side than the side facing the central region 2, where the boundary wall can run perpendicular to the plane of the edge region 3.
  • the outer edge of the edge region 3 is preferably angled at an obtuse angle, so that an edge strip 12, for example 3 mm wide, is formed.
  • a spoiler strip 11 is provided, which extends over the length of the fan cap.
  • the height of the spoiler strip 11 is less than the height of the longitudinal walls 7, 8 of the air passage openings 4 and is preferably about 3 mm.
  • the spoiler strip 11 is expediently inward by approximately 15 °, ie. H. inclined towards the air passage openings 4.
  • the fastening region 1 and the central region 2 together form an angle of approximately 150 °, and the edge region 3 expediently forms an angle of approximately 45 ° with the horizontal.
  • the air passage openings 4 are always located at the same outer point in relation to the different ridge tiles used in practice, and thus the desired and required vacuum is guaranteed for each type of ridge tile. This is achieved by changing the width dimension V of the central region 2 in accordance with the respective requirements, but always keeping the distance K between the outer edge of the cap and the air passage openings 4 constant.
  • the dimension V can be 40/50/60/70 mm, but the dimension K remains unchanged.
  • Fig. 2 shows the fan cap according to Fig. 1 from above.
  • the through openings 4 which run along a longitudinal line and which can be provided in the region of their center with a connecting or stiffening web 14 which is located in the region of the mouth plane 5 of the air through openings 4.
  • the support bumps 10 are each located in the area between two successive air passage openings 4 and in the middle area in between.
  • the fastening area 1 is provided with a plurality of openings 15 which are at the same mutual distance.
  • the effective slot width of an air passage opening 4 is preferably 12 mm and the slot length of an air passage opening 4 is 125 mm, the arrangement being such that there is a fan cross-sectional area of 105 cm 2 on one side of the cap; this dimensioning produces particularly good values, even when there is a pronounced acute-angle flow against the air passage openings 4 in practice.
  • the mutual spacing of the air passage openings 4 which follow one another in a line is expediently approximately 15 mm, while an open area of slightly more than 30 mm is provided at the end regions of the respective cap, which can be used for overlapping.
  • FIG. 3 now shows a section of a fan cap according to the teaching of the invention, namely with flaps 16 provided on the fan cap.
  • a pivotably mounted flap 16 is connected upstream of each air passage opening 4.
  • the flaps 16 can be pivoted in the event of an inflow from the outside into a position which changes the free flow cross section for the inflowing air.
  • the free air flow cross section which results between the outer cap surface and the ridge tiles (not shown) which overlap it is preferably reduced by the flaps 16 pivoted in the direction of their end position (their starting position is shown).
  • the flaps 16 are each pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis 18.
  • the pivot axes 18 are adjacent to the air passage openings 4, which are designed as elongated holes and extend in the longitudinal direction of the cap. Furthermore, the flaps 16 are aligned parallel to the elongated air passage openings 4.
  • Transverse webs 20 are provided on the outer surface of the cap. The webs 20 extend approximately from the central region 2 to approximately the lower edge of the respective edge region 3.
  • the air passage openings 4 and the associated flaps 16 are each arranged between two such webs 20.
  • the webs 20 are preferably also designed to support the ridge tiles (not shown).
  • the air passage openings 4 have a chimney-like shape. Here they have the chimney-like air openings 4 delimiting longitudinal walls 7, 8 have a lower height than the associated flaps 16.
  • projections 22 are provided to limit the pivoting movement of the flaps 16.
  • the flaps 16 are somewhat longer than the air passage openings 4 designed as elongated hole openings.
  • the projections 22 are each arranged on the two sides of the air passage openings 4.
  • the height of the projections 22 corresponds at least substantially to the height of the flaps 16, but is less than the height of the webs 20, which preferably support the ridge tiles.
  • the pivot axes 18 of the flaps 16 directly adjacent to the air passage openings 4 are mounted in the webs 20.
  • recesses are provided in the webs 20, the cross-section of which is substantially larger than that of the pivot axis 18 in question.
  • the height of the flaps 16 corresponds at least essentially to the width of the air passage openings 4 measured in the transverse direction of the cap.
  • Fig. 3 shows the flaps 16 in their starting position. In this starting position, the flaps 16 are still a slight distance from the outer surface of the cap in order to form a gap, so that the air flow can act on the flaps from below and lift them up. Because of the central symmetrical design seen in the longitudinal direction, the flaps 16 are accordingly raised on the wind inflow side, while they remain in their initial position on the wind downstream side. The flaps 16 are each reset by their own weight. In principle, however, it is also conceivable to make the necessary provision for. B. ensure by spring elements.
