Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of roof drainage. she relates to a device for protecting an upwardly open gutter from contamination according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is e.g. from US-A-5,092,086 or US-A-5,906,074 known.
  • gutters that are open at the top collect rainwater flowing from a roof and check it in downpipes or the like lead downwards against contamination or blockage by leaves, To protect branches and the like.
  • Such gutter protection should be mechanically robust, weatherproof, easy to assemble, largely maintenance-free and with little Material and assembly costs must be realized.
  • a such gutter protection easily and flexibly to different gutter lengths be adaptable and practically without changes to existing ones Gutter systems can be installed.
  • Gutter protection systems are, for example, in US Pat. No. 5,802,777 or WO-A1-01 / 00945 have been disclosed in which the gutter with a convex upward arched grid element that is covered on both edges the gutters are fastened by means of a longitudinal frame.
  • a comparable cover geometry is described in DE-C1-199 50 472 achieved by inserting a pipe with a grid structure into the gutters is, by cutting the tube in the longitudinal direction a certain Adaptation to the respective gutter can be made.
  • All convex protection systems that have a convex outward have the disadvantage that due to the curvature between the lower edge of the roof or the roof tiles and the apex of the vault forms a kind of gutter in which not rarely a part of the foliage and other foreign bodies is held and hinders the free drainage of rainwater into the gutter. This can be straight in storms with a high accumulation of leaves and water - cause that the rainwater laterally over the gutter outwards or inwards into the Roof substructure overflows.
  • a gutter is known from the aforementioned US-A-5,906,074 cover with a grid that on the outside by means of elastic Tapes and hooks attached to the tapes on the lower inner edge the (square) gutter is attached.
  • Such an attachment is, however complex to manufacture and assemble, is relatively sensitive to mechanical External influences and only because of the elastic bands a limited lifespan.
  • the object is achieved by the entirety of the features of claim 1.
  • the essence of the invention is to fasten the flat grating arranged at a slight slope at least on the outer edge of the gutter by means of individual fastening elements arranged at a distance from one another.
  • the gutters usually have outer edges, which are bead-like, and are therefore very suitable for a simple, snap-on attachment that does not require any additional aids. This also ensures that the grille with its outer longitudinal edge is approximately at the level of the outer gutter edge and connects to the gutter edge almost seamlessly, so that the foreign objects sliding outward over the grille are practically not hindered in their movement. Since the fastening elements are provided individually and at a distance from one another, the effort is low and the assembly is quick and easy.
  • a preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention is distinguished characterized in that the outer edge of the gutter has the shape of a bead, that the fasteners are engaged with the bead, that the Gutter grips with the inner edge under the roof tiles of a roof, and that the grid with the inner longitudinal edge to lie under the roof tiles comes.
  • the grid preferably consists of a dimensionally stable plastic, in particular Polypropylene (PP) or polyamide (PA) and is made in one piece.
  • PP Polypropylene
  • PA polyamide
  • Such one Grid is simple and inexpensive to manufacture, easy to cut, weatherproof and practically maintenance-free.
  • the dimensional stability makes it superfluous to stretch the grid because it is largely self-leveling Configuration remains.
  • the grid is exceptionally robust and therefore also resistant to deformations caused by foreign bodies such as e.g. Branches.
  • the mesh size of the grid is a few millimeters, preferably about 10 mm.
  • the fasteners are preferably as across the gutter lying bracket formed on which the grid rests.
  • the bracket are in particular made of a, preferably 0.6 to 0.7 mm thick, Metal strips made.
  • brackets are made of Cu or chrome-nickel steel have a width between 10 mm and 30 mm and a length between 20 cm and 25 cm on.
  • the holding brackets have a hook-shaped head part at the outer end, with which they snap over the outer edge of the gutter.
  • the brackets are distributed means for attaching the grid, the are designed in particular as plastically deformable fastening tabs.
  • the retaining brackets can be attached to the roof by attaching them to the inside End mounting holes have, by means of which they on a roof batten or Like. Can be nailed or screwed.
  • the bracket is on the gutter at a uniform distance of preferably about 30 cm are arranged up to 50 cm, the gutter through its entire length several similar ones arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the gutter Grids are covered, and adjacent grids overlap with the edges are each attached to a common bracket.
  • simplified fastening elements can be used be the first fasteners for attaching the grid on the outer edge of the gutter and second fastening elements for fastening of the grid on the inner side of the gutter.
  • the first fastening elements are preferably snapped over the outer one Brackets that grip the edge of the gutter, preferably made of a plastic, formed which at one end with a hook for hooking into the Grid are equipped.
  • the second fasteners are designed to snap into place latching elements reaching into roof gutters, preferably made of a plastic, which at one end with a Hooks for hooking into the grid are equipped, and which on the other End have a locking tongue.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective side view of the detail from an a roof 10 attached gutter 12 for the assembly of a grid provided bracket 13 according to a first preferred embodiment presented the invention.
  • the gutter (semicircular in the example) 12 is with fasteners, not shown, in the usual manner attached below an end board 20 on the roof edge. Above the end board the last row of roof tiles or shingles is arranged, which is omitted in FIG. 1.
  • the brackets 13 are even Distance of preferably 30 to 50 cm across the gutter 12 the gutter 12 and mounted on the end board 20.
  • the bracket 13, which in Fig. 2 are shown in detail, are by a combined punching and bending process made from a sheet metal strip, which is preferably 0.6 to 0.7 mm is thick.
  • the bracket 13 have a width between 10 mm and 30 mm and a length between 20 cm and 25 cm.
  • the Length is preferably chosen so that one and the same bracket for all common gutter sizes can be used.
  • the brackets 13 have a hook-shaped head part 18, at the outer end which they snap into place over the outer edge of the gutter 12. Is the The outer edge of the gutter 12 is designed as a round bead 14, the head part 18 correspond to round curved. In principle, the head part 18 can also be on square beads can be adjusted.
