Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fan cap made of plastic material for ventilation of Roofs in the ridge, hip or ridge area, with a fastening area, with a Edge area and with one another the attachment area and the edge area connecting intermediate area, the intermediate area air passage openings and the edge area on the roof side extends over the length of the cap, has resilient sealing member and the sealing member Structure of a fine thread brush with a variety of elastic, at least largely has flow-tight packing arranged brush threads.
  • the fan cap described above is known from DE-A-38 13 094.
  • the Fundamental advantage of a fan cap with a sealing element designed as a fine thread brush is that the fine thread brush is problem-free without interference the flow tightness the most diverse gap shapes between the Roof covering and the fan cap, especially with sharp-edged and special pronounced transitions, can adapt.
  • the fine thread brush firmly connected to the edge area of the fan cap, so that the Fine thread brush is an integral part of the fan cap.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a fan cap of the type mentioned above to design and further develop that warehousing, packaging, transport and installation problems are significantly reduced or significantly simplified.
  • the sealing member is releasably connected to the edge area that the brush threads with a Are fixed in a support part that at the edge of the fan cap Sliding guide for inserting the carrier part is provided that the sliding guide of a free edge area of the fan cap and one with the underside of the Fan cap connected or formed on this clamping and guide part is and that the free edge area of the fan cap and the clamping and guide part together form a substantially U-shaped receptacle for the carrier part.
  • the previously derived and shown task is the one mentioned at the beginning Fan cap according to a second teaching of the invention solved in that the sealing member is releasably connected to the edge area that the brush threads are fixed at one end in a carrier part and that the carrier part with the edge region the fan cap non-positively, especially via snap-snap connections or push-button connections, can be coupled.
  • the releasable fastening according to the invention has the advantage that the sealing member practically only at the respective construction site with the relevant fan cap must be connected so that depending on the required dimensions the sealing elements only different sealing elements in connection with just a single type of fan cap or more precisely, a fan cap base body must be kept in stock and then the required Combinations can be put together on site.
  • This has the most essential Advantage that fan caps are packed without a sealing element already attached, can be shipped and kept in stock, which Savings in packaging and storage space can be achieved because the fan caps can be packed just as compactly as those that can be packed separately Sealing elements in the form of fine thread brushes. It also stands out the alternative specified according to the first teaching of the invention by a special one Simplicity and also by an inexpensive manufacture, because the fan cap itself or its edge area is part of the sliding guide.
  • the releasable attachment of the sealing member to the edge area can effectively avoid dropping or loosening of the fine thread brush from the edge area.
  • the detachment and falling off of sealing elements from the edge area can be known Fan caps occur relatively frequently when the sealing elements with the Edge area are glued, which is however the rule. Especially through temperatures, As is quite common in summer, peeling and falling off can occur of the sealing element from the edge area already occur during transport of the fan cap. It is particularly disadvantageous if a sealing element is not installed until after laying the fan cap loosens, because then a repair or replacement of the fan cap with relatively much effort is involved.
  • Fig. 1 shows a fan cap 1, the fastening area 2, a roof side Border area 3 and an intermediate area 4 includes and in the in the intermediate area 4 air passage openings 5 and 3 support elements 6 in themselves in the edge region are provided in a known manner.
  • a sealing member 7 in the form of a fine thread brush made of a variety of Brush threads 8 attached. Sealing elements designed as fine thread brushes can can be used with all types of fan caps, so that the indicated in Fig. 1 Fan cap 1 with fine thread brush only as an example for such fan caps is to be considered.
  • the seal in the form of a fine thread brush is for ridge, Hip or ridge areas, but also usable for throat areas.
  • Fig. 2 shows an embodiment in which the sealing member 7 in the form of a fine thread brush is attached to a carrier part 9 and brush threads 8 different Has length, so that the fine thread brush facing away from the carrier part 9 End has a wedge-shaped area 10.
  • the fine thread brush is essentially Formed approximately wedge-like over its entire height, and the carrier part 9 has one Recess 11 in the area of a coupling or connection with the associated Fan cap 1 is possible.
  • the fine thread brush consists of several areas Brush threads 8 of different lengths, being between the individual Result in graded transitions.
  • three brush strip strips can be used in this case can be combined with one another, as explained in detail below become.
  • the carrier part 9 is connected to a fastening part 12, that includes an acute angle with the support part 9.
  • FIG. 5 An arrangement analogous to FIG. 4 is shown in FIG. 5, in which case the fine thread brush is formed overall obliquely wedge-shaped with a blunt end.
  • FIG. 6 shows an embodiment of a substantially corresponding to FIG. 4 Arrangement according to the invention, in which case on the fastening part 12 Clamping or dome knobs 18 are attached, which are preferably lateral clamping ribs have.
  • the sealing member 7 in a simple Way with the associated fan cap 1, d. H. connected to the edge area 3 , since it is only necessary for this purpose, the dome knobs 18 in corresponding receiving slots to stick and snap.
  • the dome knobs 18 can at the same time form support members for ridge caps.
  • Fig. 7 shows a schematic representation for explaining a preferred type of Production of the fine thread brush for the fan cap 1 according to the invention
  • Holding element 14 in the form of a wire, rod or the like.
  • First becomes a first Layer of brush threads 8 placed, and this first layer are adjacent to it then further layers applied.
  • the fine thread brush can also be produced by placing it horizontally on one lying strips of metal or other materials the brush threads be hung up first. The brush threads are then centered a holding element in the form of a wire or rod, and then the entire arrangement flanged.
  • the clamping is in the area of the exit of the brush threads 8 from the carrier part 9 somewhat more pronounced, so that at this point there is the smallest width of the fine thread brush results while the brush threads 8 fan out a little towards the free end.
  • the width is in the region of the exit of the brush threads 8 from the carrier part 9 the fine thread brush according to a preferred embodiment, about 2.5 mm, it is essential that the individual brush threads 8 diameters in the range of 0.10 to 0.40 mm and preferably in the range of 0.15 to 0.35 mm synonymous with that is that the fine thread brush per running unit of length has a large number of brush threads 8.
  • the brush threads 8 can be made of plastic material, in particular polypropylene or nylon. It is also the use of fine metal threads as well Natural fibers of vegetable or animal origin possible, but in principle also Mixtures of these different fibers can be advantageous.
  • the brush threads 8 already provide when they are straight are, due to their tight packing, the necessary flow tightness, but preferred are these brush threads 8 deformed in their longitudinal plane, in particular corrugated, because in this way there is mutual interlocking, which is complementary contributes to the fact that no air breakthrough can occur even with strong wind pressure. This results in the best safety against flying snow and driving rain.
  • the crimp fastening of the brush threads 8 explained with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8 provides a particularly simple and preferred type of realization of the carrier part 9 for the Fine thread brush. But it is also possible for the brush threads 8 on their fastening side Fix the end in a different way, provided it always becomes the required one tight packing ensures and ensures that not by an example used tuft arrangement of the brush threads the inflow tightness can no longer be guaranteed in the required manner.
  • Fig. 9 shows a preferred coupling option between the fine thread brush and the edge area 3 of the fan cap 1.
  • a tab part shown, which is used to implement a sliding guide 15.
  • the right part of the illustration in FIG. 9 shows the fan cap 1 with an outwardly extending spoiler 19 and an inwardly angled one Edge area 21.
  • On the underside of the fan cap 1 is a for formation the sliding guide 15 required clamping and guide part 17 formed in one piece, and this clamping and guiding part 17 forms together with the angled one Edge area 21 has a U-shaped receptacle for the carrier part 9 of the fine thread brush as shown in Fig. 8.
  • the free ends on the brush side of the angled edge region 21 and the sliding guide 15 are again after angled inside so that the fine thread brush exits from this U-shaped Recording is definitely prevented.
  • the fan cap 1 On the underside of the fan cap 1 there are preferably several such tab elements provided at a mutual distance.
  • the introduction of the fine thread brush is preferably carried out in the form of a sliding process, the in Longitudinal direction 1 to insert the fine thread brush or the brush strip strip is facilitated by the set up corners 20.
  • This embodiment a coupling between the brush strip strip and fan cap 1 by a special simplicity and also by an inexpensive production from, because the fan cap 1 itself with its edge area a part of represents sliding guide 15. But there are also other advantageous ones Coupling options by latching in, hanging in or pressing in like a Push button connection possible.
  • the fan cap 1 is taking into account the respective choice of materials and due to their structure with a large number of separate individual elements extremely temperature-resistant, flow-tight even under difficult conditions and extremely adaptable, especially with regard to the respective sealing problem. Due to the detachable and adaptable fine thread brush, every roofing material is fully sealed, without open corners and bulges Places remain by which driving rain and / or flying snow entered can be. Furthermore, there is no risk that - as in conventional Foam seals may be the case - the sealing material for nest building used and thereby the sealing function is deteriorated.
  • the brush threads 8 can preferably be circular, elliptical, triangular, square or have a rhombic cross-section.
  • the cross-sectional profile over the The length of the brush thread can be cylindrical or conical.
