Definitions
- the invention relates to a cover for a gutter, in particular a gutter consisting of a Through holes provided strip-shaped section, the Width substantially equal to the width of the free top the gutter to be covered, the stripe-shaped Section has a substantially zigzag cross-section with elevations and depressions.
- Gutters provided below the lower edges of Roofs are arranged and the collection and derivation of Rain and meltwater serve.
- Gutters are usually made of galvanized sheet steel, copper or plastic and have a substantially semicircular or box-shaped Cross-section, with the outer free longitudinal edge mostly after is crimped on the outside so that it has a circular bead forms.
- the inner longitudinal edge of a gutter is either also flanged or simply at the upper end section angled outside.
- the gutter is supported by bow-shaped brackets, whose profile is adapted to the outer contour of the gutter and the are attached to the roof structure.
- the gutters are particularly worn in autumn and winter Falling leaves so dirty that the water jams in the gutter and eventually overflows .. That overflowing water can easily damage the facade as well lead in the foundations.
- the utility model G 9 412 622 suggests a cover for the Gutter in front, which is essentially zigzag-shaped Has cross-section and circular in the recesses Through openings for melt and rain water are provided.
- the zigzag cross-section has compared to one Coverage in level training, as e.g. from DE 36 15 480 is known, the advantage that the leaves predominantly only rest on the ridges and therefore only along the Attach elevations to the cover. By stronger wind the leaves are blown off the cover.
- Another cover is known from Au 5 709 57B.
- the device described has the disadvantage that the Slightly block through holes in the recesses.
- the object is achieved in that the Through openings are at least from one depression to extend to the next.
- the through openings are preferably essentially rectangular elongated holes.
- the surveys and Recesses advantageously extend in the longitudinal direction of the Cover and the elongated holes are in their longitudinal axis for this preferably arranged transversely. Every slot is therefore formed at least between two wells.
- the elongated holes can also span several depressions extend and across the width of the cover only via webs be connected, which is only at the top of the surveys are trained.
- This training will be almost continuous longitudinal slots across the cover, which only interrupted by a few bridges on the ridges are. With continuous longitudinal slots, the tendency is to Least constipation.
- the longitudinal holes are both in the longitudinal direction and in Transverse direction aligned. This has the advantage that when mounting the cover this easily to the desired one Length can be cut to length. To do this, only the Edge sections and the webs between the longitudinal holes be severed.
- the area is Through openings essentially equal to or larger than Area formed by the webs in between becomes. If there is wet leaves on the cover, it tends to to stick to when drying. Through the zigzag shaped Cross section as well as through the over the ridges the leaves are only through through openings at individual points of increases and can at these stick together. Nevertheless, many sheets adhere so strongly that they a light wind cannot blow away from the cover. Because the area of the through openings is equal to or is larger than that of the bridges, the wind does not get in covered areas between cover and gutter and presses the sheets from bottom to top away from the cover. Often it is sufficient to bend the marginal areas of the leaves slightly, see above that the wind sweeping over the cover grips the sheet and can detach from the cover.
- the angle of the zigzag webs to Transverse axis of the cover is preferably between 10 ° and 20 °. An angle that is too steep is disadvantageous because of this wind-protected zones are formed in the depressions.
- the cover has Fasteners through which it is on the bead of the gutter can be locked.
- the fastener is preferred formed by a hook, which on the bead of the gutter can be clipped on, opposite the hook on the Cover at least one web is formed, which as Abutment for the hook is used.
- the web advantageously extends further from the Bottom of the cover off as the hook.
- the compared to the area of the web protruding from the hook forms a guide when the cover is placed on the bead.
- the cover is advantageously made in one piece and made of plastic manufactured.
- Fig. 1 shows a cover 1 in a view from above.
- the Cover 1 is substantially rectangular and has a width b.
- This width b corresponds to the upper one open end of a gutter, e.g. a gutter, and is thus about 16.5 cm.
- the length of the section can will be different and will be for practicality reasons usually chosen with 1 m.
- the section has a number of through openings 3, which are designed as elongated holes and cross to Extend the longitudinal axis of the cover. across the width of the Cover, three slots are aligned, which are separated via webs 6. In the longitudinal direction of the The elongated holes are covered with one another via webs 8 separated, which spanned the entire width of the cover go through.
- the width of the webs 8 of the elongated holes is narrower chosen as the width of the elongated holes themselves, so that the Area formed by the through openings 3, is larger than the one through the webs 6 and 8 is produced.
- FIG. 2 shows the cross section of the cover 1 in that in FIG. 3 shown section A-B.
- the cross section is zigzag with elevations 4 and depressions 5.
- the Through openings 3 each extend from one Elevation 4 over two wells 5 and the one in between Elevation 4 to the next but one elevation 4.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Abdeckung für eine Rinne, insbesondere eine Dachrinne, bestehend aus einem mit Durchgangslöchern versehenen streifenförmigen Abschnitt, dessen Breite im wesentlichen gleich der Breite der freien Oberseite der abzudeckenden Rinne ist, wobei der streifenförmige Abschnitt einen im wesentlichen zick-zack-förmigen Querschnitt mit Erhebungen und Vertiefungen aufweist.The invention relates to a cover for a gutter, in particular a gutter consisting of a Through holes provided strip-shaped section, the Width substantially equal to the width of the free top the gutter to be covered, the stripe-shaped Section has a substantially zigzag cross-section with elevations and depressions.
Eine solche Abdeckung ist unter anderem für konventionelle Dachrinnen vorgesehen, welche unterhalb der unteren Ränder von Dächern angeordnet sind und dem Auffangen sowie Ableiten von Regen und Schmelzwasser dienen. Dachrinnen werden in der Regel aus verzinktem Stahlblech, Kupfer oder Kunststoff hergestellt und weisen einen im wesentlichen halbkreis- oder kastenförmigen Querschnitt auf, wobei der äußere freie Längsrand meist nach außen umgebördelt ist, so daß er einen kreisförmigen Wulst bildet. Der innere Längsrand einer Dachrinne ist entweder ebenso umgebördelt oder einfach am oberen Endabschnitt nach außen abgewinkelt.Such a cover is among others for conventional ones Gutters provided below the lower edges of Roofs are arranged and the collection and derivation of Rain and meltwater serve. Gutters are usually made of galvanized sheet steel, copper or plastic and have a substantially semicircular or box-shaped Cross-section, with the outer free longitudinal edge mostly after is crimped on the outside so that it has a circular bead forms. The inner longitudinal edge of a gutter is either also flanged or simply at the upper end section angled outside.
Die Dachrinne wird durch bügelförmige Halterungen getragen, deren Profil der Außenkontur der Dachrinne angepaßt ist und die am Dachstuhl befestigt sind.The gutter is supported by bow-shaped brackets, whose profile is adapted to the outer contour of the gutter and the are attached to the roof structure.
Bei Häusern, welche in der Nachbarschaft von Bäumen stehen, werden die Dachrinnen insbesondere im Herbst und Winter durch herabfallendes Laub so stark verschmutzt, daß sich das Wasser in der Dachrinne staut und schließlich überläuft.. Das überlaufende Wasser kann leicht zu Schäden an der Fassade sowie in den Fundamenten führen.For houses that are in the vicinity of trees, the gutters are particularly worn in autumn and winter Falling leaves so dirty that the water jams in the gutter and eventually overflows .. That overflowing water can easily damage the facade as well lead in the foundations.
Um ein regelmäßiges Reinigen der Dachrinne zu vermeiden,
schlägt das Gebrauchsmuster G 9 412 622 eine Abdeckung für die
Dachrinne vor, welche einen im wesentlichen zick-zack-förmigen
Querschnitt aufweist und bei der in den Vertiefungen kreisrunde
Durchtrittsöffnungen für das Schmelz- und Regenwasser
vorgesehen sind.In order to avoid regular cleaning of the gutter,
the
Der zick-zack-förmige Querschnitt hat im Vergleich zu einer Abdeckung in ebener Ausbildung, wie sie z.B. aus der DE 36 15 480 bekannt ist, den Vorteil, daß die Blätter vorwiegend nur auf den Erhöhungen aufliegen und somit nur entlang der Erhöhungen an der Abdeckung anhaften. Durch stärkeren Wind werden die Blätter von der Abdeckung weggeblasen.The zigzag cross-section has compared to one Coverage in level training, as e.g. from DE 36 15 480 is known, the advantage that the leaves predominantly only rest on the ridges and therefore only along the Attach elevations to the cover. By stronger wind the leaves are blown off the cover.
Eine andere Abdeckung ist aus der Au 5 709 57B bekannt.Another cover is known from Au 5 709 57B.
Die beschriebene Vorrichtung hat jedoch den Nachteil, daß die Durchgangsöffnungen in den Vertiefungen leicht verstopfen. Da von Bäumen nicht nur ganze glatte Blätter, sondern oft auch Blätterteile, veschrumpelte und leicht gerollte Blätter herabfallen, können sich diese zwischen den Vertiefungen ablagern. Herabfallende Nadeln sowie Sand von den Dachplatten tragen das ihre dazu bei, die Durchgangsöffnungen zu verstopfen.However, the device described has the disadvantage that the Slightly block through holes in the recesses. There of trees not only whole smooth leaves, but often also Leaf parts, shriveled and slightly rolled leaves can fall between the wells deposit. Falling needles and sand from the roof tiles do their part to close the openings clog.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, die gattungsgemäße Abdeckung derart weiterzuentwickeln, daß die Gefahr der Verstopfung der Durchgangsöffnungen ausgeräumt wird und die Blätter leicht durch einen Windstoß von der Abdeckung geblasen werden können.It is therefore an object of the invention, the generic Develop coverage in such a way that the risk of Clogging of the through openings is cleared and the Leaves easily blown off the cover by a gust of wind can be.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Durchgangsöffnungen sich mindestens von einer Vertiefung bis zur nächsten erstrecken. The object is achieved in that the Through openings are at least from one depression to extend to the next.
Durch diese Ausbildung ist eine Durchgangsöffnungen über den kompletten Bereich einer Erhöhung vorgesehen. Würde nun ein Blatt oder eine anderes Schmutzpartikel den unteren Teil der Vertiefung verstopfen, so kann das Wasser seitlich ablaufen, da in den die Erhöhung bildenden Seitenwänden die Durchgangsöffnungen ebenfalls vorgesehen sind. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der Durchgangsöffnungen sind die Erhöhungen von den Durchgangsöffnungen unterbrochen und die Blätter liegen nur an den Erhöhungen in den Stegen zwischen den Durchgangsöffnungen auf. Durch die Reduzierung der Auflage der Blätter auf einzelne Punkte haften diese weniger an der Abdeckung an.Through this training is a through openings on the entire area of an increase is provided. Would now Sheet or other dirt particles the lower part of the Clog the recess so that the water can run off to the side because in the side walls forming the elevation Through openings are also provided. Through the Formation of the through openings according to the invention are Elevations interrupted by the through openings and the Leaves are only on the ridges in the webs between the Through openings. By reducing the circulation of the Sheets on individual dots stick less to the Cover.
Die Durchgangsöffnungen sind vorzugsweise im wesentlichen rechteckig ausgebildete Langlöcher. Die Erhebungen und Vertiefungen verlaufen günstigerweise in Längsrichtung der Abdeckung und die Langlöcher sind in ihrer Längsachse hierzu vorzugsweise quer angeordnet. Jedes Langloch ist somit zumindest zwischen zwei Vertiefungen ausgebildet.The through openings are preferably essentially rectangular elongated holes. The surveys and Recesses advantageously extend in the longitudinal direction of the Cover and the elongated holes are in their longitudinal axis for this preferably arranged transversely. Every slot is therefore formed at least between two wells.
Die Langlöcher können sich auch über mehrere Vertiefungen erstrecken und über die Breite der Abdeckung nur über Stege verbunden sein, welche nur an der Spitze der Erhebungen ausgebildet sind. Durch diese Ausbildung werden nahezu durchgehende Längsschlitze quer zur Abdeckung erzielt, welche lediglich durch einige Stege an den Erhöhungen unterbrochen sind. Bei durchgehenden Längsschlitzen ist die Neigung zur Verstopfung am geringsten.The elongated holes can also span several depressions extend and across the width of the cover only via webs be connected, which is only at the top of the surveys are trained. This training will be almost continuous longitudinal slots across the cover, which only interrupted by a few bridges on the ridges are. With continuous longitudinal slots, the tendency is to Least constipation.
Über die Breite einer Abdeckung sind vorzugsweise drei Längslöcher vorgesehen, so daß die Längsschlitze nur durch zwei Stege unterbrochen sind.There are preferably three across the width of a cover Elongated holes are provided so that the longitudinal slots only by two Webs are interrupted.
Die Längslöcher sind sowohl in Längsrichtung als auch in Querrichtung fluchtend ausgebildet. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß bei der Montage der Abdeckung diese leicht auf die gewünschte Länge abgelängt werden kann. Hierzu müßten lediglich die Randabschnitte sowie die Stege zwischen den Längslöchern durchtrennt werden.The longitudinal holes are both in the longitudinal direction and in Transverse direction aligned. This has the advantage that when mounting the cover this easily to the desired one Length can be cut to length. To do this, only the Edge sections and the webs between the longitudinal holes be severed.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Fläche der Durchgangsöffnungen im wesentlichen gleich oder größer der Fläche, welche durch die dazwischenliegenden Stege gebildet wird. Liegt naßes Laub auf der Abdeckung, so neigt es dazu, beim Trocknen mit dieser zu verkleben. Durch den zick-zack-förmigen Querschnitt sowie durch die über die Erhöhungen durchgehenden Durchgangsöffnungen liegen die Blätter nur noch an einzelnen Punkten der Erhöhungen auf und können an diesen verkleben. Dennoch haften viele Blätter derart stark, daß sie ein leichter Wind von der Abdeckung nicht wegwehen kann. Dadurch, daß die Fläche der Durchgangsöffnungen gleich oder größer als diejenigen der Stege ist, gelangt der Wind in nicht abgedeckten Bereichen zwischen Abdeckung und Rinne und drückt die Blätter von unten nach oben von der Abdeckung weg. Oft genügt ein leichtes Aufbiegen der Randbereiche der Blätter, so daß der über die Abdeckung streichende Wind das Blatt erfassen und von der Abdeckung lösen kann.In a preferred embodiment, the area is Through openings essentially equal to or larger than Area formed by the webs in between becomes. If there is wet leaves on the cover, it tends to to stick to when drying. Through the zigzag shaped Cross section as well as through the over the ridges the leaves are only through through openings at individual points of increases and can at these stick together. Nevertheless, many sheets adhere so strongly that they a light wind cannot blow away from the cover. Because the area of the through openings is equal to or is larger than that of the bridges, the wind does not get in covered areas between cover and gutter and presses the sheets from bottom to top away from the cover. Often it is sufficient to bend the marginal areas of the leaves slightly, see above that the wind sweeping over the cover grips the sheet and can detach from the cover.
Der Winkel der zick-zack-förmig verlaufenden Stege zur Querachse der Abdeckung beträgt vorzugsweise zwischen 10° und 20°. Ein zu steiler Winkel ist ungünstig, da hierdurch windgeschützte Zonen in den Vertiefungen gebildet werden.The angle of the zigzag webs to Transverse axis of the cover is preferably between 10 ° and 20 °. An angle that is too steep is disadvantageous because of this wind-protected zones are formed in the depressions.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist die Abdeckung ein Befestigungsmittel auf, durch welches es am Wulst der Rinne arretiert werden kann. Das Befestigungsmittel ist bevorzugt durch einen Haken gebildet, welcher auf den Wulst der Rinne aufgeclipst werden kann, wobei gegenüber dem Haken an der Abdeckung zumindest ein Steg ausgebildet ist, welcher als Widerlager für den Haken dient. In an advantageous embodiment, the cover has Fasteners through which it is on the bead of the gutter can be locked. The fastener is preferred formed by a hook, which on the bead of the gutter can be clipped on, opposite the hook on the Cover at least one web is formed, which as Abutment for the hook is used.
Der Steg erstreckt sich vorteilhafterweise weiter von der Unterseite der Abdeckung weg als der Haken. Der im Vergleich zu dem Haken vorstehende Bereich des Steges bildet eine Führung beim Aufstecken der Abdeckung auf den Wulst.The web advantageously extends further from the Bottom of the cover off as the hook. The compared to the area of the web protruding from the hook forms a guide when the cover is placed on the bead.
Die Abdeckung wird günstigerweise einstückig und aus Kunststoff hergestellt.The cover is advantageously made in one piece and made of plastic manufactured.
