Abstract
Description
- This invention concerns roof beams especially for use in constructing conservatories and like structures having roofs comprising panels usually of translucent material supported between roof beams.
- Translucent panels for conservatory roofs are generally sandwiched at their edges between upper and lower roof beam forming extrusions coupled to a glazing bar, usually of aluminium. To provide a good seal above and below the translucent panels provisions are made for the roof beam to retain gaskets in suitable positions.
- Upper beam forming extensions or cappings may have gaskets formed integrally with panel contacting edges thereof and gaskets for the underside of the panels are usually retained in special formations of the aluminium glazing bars. These gaskets have to be fitted to the extrusions on site which takes up time. Also, the extrusions are more expensive to produce because of the additional gasket retaining formations required.
- Furthermore, in order to retain the lower beam forming extrusions, the aluminium glazing bar requires further formations on which the lower beam extrusion can locate.
- An object of this invention is to simplify roof beams construction for use in, for example, constructing conservatories.
- According to the present invention there is provided a roof beam construction for use in constructing conservatory roofs comprising a glazing bar and upper and lower cappings therefor having gaskets formed integrally on edges thereof between which a roofing panel is to be retained and means for locating said cappings on said glazing bar.
- Preferably the means for locating the lower capping on the glazing bar comprises the integrally formed gaskets, which in use will be trapped between the glazing bar and a roofing panel.
- A preferred lower capping is of extruded plastics material, such as PVC, and is preferably formed as a channel section with either a flat base or with a base having a pair of angled longitudinal facets.
- The gasket material is preferably co-extruded onto the capping and is preferably of rubber or a synthetic elastomeric material. The gaskets preferably extend inwards from opposite sides of the channel and may have deformable resilient ribs or the like to provide a good seal when compressed. Internally of the lower cappings are preferably one or more spacer projections or ribs to ensure correct alignment of the glazing bar and capping when fitted together.
- The upper capping may be of any desired cross-section provided that it has at least one depending edge on which a gasket is formed. The preferred upper capping is formed by extrusion of plastics material, such as PVC and has gaskets co-extruded onto its depending edge or edges, again preferably of rubber or a synthetic elastomeric material. Internally of the upper capping there is preferably a means for coupling the capping to the glazing bar. Preferably resilient formations depend from the inside of the capping which formations have outward projections thereon and these formations locate in an upwardly open channel of the glazing bar which has a series of internal recesses or notches for receiving said projections. The provision of a series of recesses or notches for receiving the projections allows the resilient depending formations of the capping to be pressed down into the glazing bar any desired distance depending on the thickness of the roofing panel or panels which is or are being secured in place by the capping and make a snap fit.
- A glazing bar which will have glazing panels on both sides preferably generally has a T-shaped cross-section which will be inverted in use. The upper limbs of the T may be flat or angled relative to each other depending on the shape of the base of the channel section lower capping into which it is to fit. The, in use, upstanding limb of the glazing bar is preferably formed with said open channel for receiving locating formations of the capping.
- The roof beam may be formed for locating a roofing panel on one side thereof, such as when the other side of the beam is to be secured to a wall or may be formed for locating roofing panels on opposite edges thereof for use intermediate edges of a roof structure.
- This invention will now be further described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Figure 1 shows a first roof beam arrangement according to the invention;
- Figure 2 shows a second roof beam arrangement according to the invention;
- Figure 3 shows a third roof beam arrangement according to the invention;
- Figure 4 shows a fourth roof beam arrangement according to the invention; and
- Figure 5 shows part of a conservatory roof incorporating the roof beam arrangement of Figure 4.
- Referring to Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings, a roof beam arrangement for forming conservatory or like roofs comprises a reinforcing or
glazing bar 10, anupper capping 12 and alower capping 14. In use roofing panels such as of translucent plastics material, for example polycarbonate will have their edges sandwiched between theupper capping 12 and thelower capping 14 on opposite sides of the roof beam arrangement. - The reinforcing
beam 10 is extruded from aluminium and is generally of T-section but inverted in use. Thus, the reinforcing bar has a pair offlanges 16, which are turned back on themselves at their remote ends, and anupstanding limb 18 which is bifurcated to form an upwardlyopen channel 20 having generallyparallel sides 22. On the inside of eachside 22 is a series ofnotches 24 forming downwardly open recesses. - The
upper capping 12 is extruded from PVC and is generally of inverted V-section but comprising aflat top 16 and dependingsides 28. The remote edges of thesides 28 have gaskets formed thereon by co-extrusion of rubber or synthetic elastomeric material. Internally of the capping and depending from itsflat top 26 are a pair of resilientdivergent flaps 32 having outwardly projectinglips 34 at their ends. - The
lower capping 14 is also extruded from plastics material such as PVC and is generally formed as a channel section having aflat base 36 andupstanding side walls 38. Internally of the channel on the base and on the side walls arespacing projections 40. The free edges of theside walls 38 have co-extruded thereon, from rubber or synthetic elastomeric material,gaskets 40 which extend inwardly and are inclined slightly upwards. Thegaskets 40 include resilientdeformable projections 42 on their upper surface. - In Figure 2, a roof beam arrangement is shown which is substantially the same as that of Figure 1 except that its channel section lower capping 14' has a pair of
longitudinal facets 36A and 36B inclined relative to each other and flanges 16' of reinforcing bar 10' are correspondingly inclined relative to each other. Figure 3 is similar to Figure 2 except that the angle of inclination of the channel base facets 36A' and 36B' is greater, as is the angle of inclination of the reinforcing bars flanges 16''. - Figure 4 of the accompanying drawings shows a roof beam arrangement intended for fixing against a wall, so that a roofing panel is only held on one side thereof. This arrangement has a reinforcing or
glazing bar 50 that has amain web 52 which will be fixed to the wall, alower flange 54 extending perpendicularly from its lower end which flange is turned back on itself at its remote end remote from the main web and aformation 56 extending from its upper end, which formation includes an upwardlyopen channel 58 having generallyparallel sides 60. On the inside of eachside wall 60 is a series ofnotches 62 providing generally downwardly open recesses. - The arrangement further comprises an
upper capping 64 and alower capping 66. Thecapping 64 is extruded from plastics material such as PVC and has afirst web 68 enclosing an obtuse angle with asecond web 70 which will be horizontal in use. Extending upwards from the second web is a shorterthird web 72 generally parallel to the first web. The free edge of thefirst web 68 has agasket 74 of rubber or synthetic elastomeric material co-extruded therealong. Depending from thesecond web 70 are a pair of resilientdivergent flaps 90 having outwardly projectinglips 92 at their ends. - The
lower capping 66 is also extruded from PVC and is of channel section having aflat base 80 andside walls 82. On the inside surfaces of the base and side walls are spacer projections orribs 84. Co-extruded onto the top edge of oneside wall 82 is agasket 86 of rubber or synthetic elastomeric material. Thegasket 86 is a generally flat strip inclined upwardly from the side wall and has at opposite sides resilientdeformable ribs 88. - Each of the roof beam arrangements of Figures 1 of 4 of the accompanying drawings is used in the same way. By way of example the roof beam arrangement of Figure 4 is shown in use in Figure 5 of the accompanying drawings. Firstly, the reinforcing
bar 50 is secured to awall 100 by means ofscrews 102 throughmain web 52 with thelower capping 66 held in place with one side wall between the reinforcing bar and the gasket of the other side wall over the returned end of thelower flange 54 of the reinforcing bar. Aroofing panel 104 is then laid in place overlying thegasket 86 of the lower cover. Theupper capping 64 is then fitted by parting its dependingflaps 90 into thechannel 58 of the reinforcing bar until the panel is held securely, thegasket strip 74 providing an upper water tight seal. The projectinglips 92 of the dependingflaps 90 are retained in the notches on the inside surfaces of thechannel 58 of the reinforcing bar. Flashingmaterial 106 is added to provide a water-proof seal between the roof beam arrangement and the wall. - The roof beam arrangements of Figures 1 to 3 are used in a similar manner to that of Figure 4, except that the reinforcing bar is fixed between lateral beams of the roof under construction such as a ridge beam and an eave and roofing panels are laid on opposite sides of the reinforcing bar on top of the gaskets of the lower capping. Then the upper capping is pressed into place onto the reinforcing bar to hold the roofing panels in place, the gaskets of the upper and lower cappings providing good seals above and below the roofing panels.
- By providing sealing gaskets on the capping and the lower cover instead of separately therefrom, the number of procedural steps for constructing a roof are reduced, so that construction can be simpler and quicker than hitherto.
