Definitions
- the present invention is related to a balcony floor with water drainage, comprising an aluminum profile having an upwardly open channel.
- Balcony floors of concrete are usually premanufactured in two different shapes.
- the floor is flat and 0 detached to the building with a slope outwardly from the building in such a way that rainwater etc. flows from the floor along the front.
- the floor is made with a slope towards a drain in the floor which means that the floor consists of up to four normally triangular planes where the water flows s towards a collection point. In this connection point is mounted a drainage from where the water is guided through pipes to a collection system.
- the first design normally cannot be used where people are walking under the balcony, such as above gardens, pavements o and such as the water in such a case will drop without any control along the front edge. In cases where balconies are arranged in several levels, water often will blow into the balcony below, which is not desirable.
- the second design is a good solution for water drain- 5 age. Frequently, however, chairs and tables with four legs will not have all legs arranged on the same triangular plane, resulting in the chair or the table tilting on two of the legs.
- the design furthermore is expensive as the mould used has to be prepared to incorporate four sloping directions. To ensure that o water is not flowing towards the wall of the house, a wedge is made along at least one edge which also is an expensive effort.
- the balcony floor according to the present invention may be produced as a flat plate having many advantageous as to the use and also large savings in the manufacturing as compared to prior ort balcony floors.
- the water is collected by a profile, preferably made of 5 aluminium, which is moulded into the edge of the concrete floor, the water is guided along this profile to the point where it is desired to take the water out.
- the profile is deep enough to maintain the floor substantially horizontally. The reason to produce floors with slope in fact is the desire that water should o flow away from the floor.
- the water may be taken out any place, depending on the specific arrangement. No wedge is for example necessary towards the wall of the house as the profile provides s the same function.
- the water drainage profile allows securement of a special attachment profile of aluminium into the drainage profile whereafter the corresponding o hollow post profile of aluminium may be secured to the same.
- the post profile is attached to the attachment profile with a standard clamping pin. Thereby the attachment profile is locked to the drainage profile. Simultaneously the post is locked to the attachment profile and the assembly as such is locked to the 5 concrete floor.
- an attachment piece is arranged in the drainage profile, to which the banister is secured by screws.
- the drainage profile 5 By moulding the water drainage profile according to the present invention into the concrete floor the drainage profile 5 may be placed upside down along the edge of the mould. The drainage profile thereby is pressed downwardly such as by means of straight steel pipes during moulding of the concrete and vibration of the concrete around the profile, whereafter the clamping of the profiles may be withdrawn and the corresponding holes after the steel pipes may be filled up. There exists no necessity in drilling holes the mould for attachment of the drainage profile as the case is with hollow threaded connections. This solution enables easy manufacturing of balconies in small series as the moulds are not damaged by drilling holes. Costs for moulds therefore are small.
- the profile also may be placed directly on the reinforcement steel structure when the balcony floor mould is placed in the right position.
- Use of a flat upper as well as lower surface of the balcony floor means a substantially simpler and cheaper mould structure.
- the balcony floor according to the present invention may take many different shapes. If desired, it may be provided with a front sheet covering the front face of the balcony. When using an aluminium profile with a powder varnish, a perfect and not wearable front on the balcony floor is achieved. Furthermore the profile underside may be extended in such a way that a wall and window system may be attached.
- fig. 1 discloses a ground view of a balcony having the balcony floor according to the present invention moulded into the entire balcony circumference
- fig. 2 discloses a cross section with a water outlet pipe from the profile
- fig. 3 discloses a section corresponding to fig. 2 as arranged along the entire balcony circumference, fig.
- fig 4 discloses a modification of the profile with a banister secured to the profile
- fig 5 discloses the profile of fig. 4 with a glass wall secured to the profile
- fig. 6 discloses glass walls above and below the profiles, thereby providing a build-in balcony system.
- An outlet 1 for water may be arranged anywhere wanted on the balcony floor. If the balcony floor slopes towards the wall of the house, profile 2 will be open. Securement of the banister 3 to the profile may be as disclosed in fig. 4. Between -the attachments 4 for the banister the profile channel preferably is closed by a cover or list 7 of practical as well as aestheti- cal reasons. Between the cover portions and the attachments 4, however, apertures are provided sufficiently to create paths for the water to flow from the surface of the balcony into the profile channel in which a water level 10, as disclosed in fig. 3, may be accepted.
- the attachments 4 may be open and the open parts of the profiles 2 s may be closed with covers or lists 7. Due to the depth in the profile water in any case may be taken out near the wall.
- Fig. 4 discloses an example for securement of banister in the profile 2, where the banister is attached by means of a disc which is guided into opposite grooves in the profile and is o clamped to the profile.
- Fig. 3 discloses the principle arrange ⁇ ment of the profile in the concrete floor. Further details, including the outlet 1, is schematically disclosed in fig. 2. The open upper side of the profile is covered by a list 7 or cover, the legs of the list thereby snapping into the grooves in the s profile.
- the lower part of the profile comprises a flange 12 for attachment into the concrete.
- the underside of the flange 12 is provided with a slot 11 into which a plate may be clued in place in the two profiles of a corner, o thereby to maintain the shape of the profile assembly and keep the assembly in place when pouring the mould.
- Figs. 4, 5 and 6 disclose examples for attachment of glass walls, such as for making a winter garden.
- the glass window comprises a lower profile secured to the grooves in the profile 5 2 and therefore may be displaced from the side to establish a stable attachment of the glass wall.
- a modified profile 8 may be used, where an upper glass wall 5 may be secured to the floor profile of the balcony and a lower wall o with glass 6 may be secured to the underside of the profile by means of screws and to the balcony below, cf. fig. 6.
