Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flashing kit comprising at least two sheet flashing members for a roof penetrating structure, each sheet flashing member comprising a sheet member having an upper and a lower surface, a first flange intended to be arranged against the roof penetrating structure in a mounted position, and a second flange arranged at a distance from the first flange, the distance defining a width.
  • flashing roof penetrating building structures for example chimneys or frame structures for roof windows
  • flashing covers of sheet metal, for instance aluminium, copper, steel or zinc.
  • flashing covers have been manufactured by ordinary tin man work from a plane sheet material which is profiled and formed to make a fit at the desired location.
  • a flashing assembly adapted to be used between, for example, a roof window and a sloping roof surface comprises upper and lower flashing members adapted to be mounted in a horizontal position between the upper and lower frame portions of the window and the roof surface, respectively, as well as first and second side flashing members adapted to be mounted in a sloping position between the two side frame portions of the window and the roof surface, respectively.
  • Such a flashing assembly further comprises corner segments adapted to provide a seal between the side flashings and the upper and lower flashings, such corner segments often being integrated in either the upper and lower flashing members or the side flashing members.
  • side flashing members are normally formed as gutter-like members with a first flange adapted to be mounted on the window frame and a second flange adapted to be mounted under the roof surface.
  • the gutter then directs the water downwards.
  • flashing members are not "standard" as they are dependent upon, for example, whether a single window is mounted in a roof surface or two or more windows are mounted in neighbouring relationship.
  • special flashing members are used to provide a seal between two neighbouring windows, which may be either entire flashing members adapted to span the width between two windows, side flashing members which are adapted to be connected directly to each other, or it may be additional flashing members which are adapted to create a seal between two neighbouring side flashing members.
  • FR-A-2 473 595 discloses a flashing assembly in which first and second flashing members are adapted to be interconnected with each other when roof windows are mounted next to each other.
  • first and second flashing members are adapted to be interconnected with each other when roof windows are mounted next to each other.
  • a flashing kit for a single roof window will have to supplied with different flashing members for the opposed sides of the window frame, e.g. two different side flashing members.
  • DK-B 154 099 discloses a flashing element specifically adapted for connecting two neighbouring side flashing members.
  • the connecting flashing element allows two flashing elements with the same profile to be connected, such that identical first and second side flashing members can be used for a given flashing assembly.
  • a flashing kit of the kind mentioned in the introduction which is furthermore characterized in that said flashing kit comprises a set of two substantially identical flashing members, which can be arranged fully or partly on top of each other and which have means for adjusting the width between the first and second flanges.
  • a flashing kit may be used regardless of whether it is to be used in connection with a single roof penetrating structure or roof penetrating structures installed side-by-side.
  • a flashing kit is provided which can be used together with a similar flashing kit in different configurations to suit a wide variety of conditions.
  • such a flashing kit can be used either alone providing a seal between a roof penetrating structure and the surrounding roof surface, or in combination in a stacked or overlapping relationship providing a seal between neighbouring structures.
  • the sheet flashing members of the kit each comprises two portions connected by a flexible element providing said adjustment means for the width, the flexible element preferably being wave-corrugated or pleated.
  • each sheet flashing member of the kit comprises at least one upstanding rib member in a general longitudinal direction of the flashing member, the width of the rib member being adjustable.
  • the rib member may comprise first and second substantially co-planar sides connected at their upper edges by a flexible element, thereby providing a downwardly open hollow rib structure.
  • the flanges and/or rib member(s) are substantially parallel to each other and the adjusting means may be expanded and/or compressed along a line substantially parallel to the flanges.
  • the sheet flashing members have a wave-formed configuration comprising, fully or partly, one or more hills and one or more dales arranged in the general longitudinal direction of the flashing.
  • the individual hills and dales may be generally symmetrical, preferably formed in an angular zigzag pattern or has a general sinusoidal cross-section.
  • an elastic or adhesive and/or plastic sealing element may be provided, said elastic or adhesive and/or plastic sealing element preferably comprising at least one slit providing a tearing aid, and preferably an attachment element attached to the elastic or adhesive and/or plastic sealing element and the flashing member allowing the attachment element to be manually peeled off.
  • the kit is characterized in that a first sheet flashing member is intended to be arranged against a first member of the roof penetrating structure, and a second sheet flashing member is intended to be arranged against a second member of the same roof penetrating structure, or against an adjacent member of a neighbouring roof penetrating structure, the first and second sheet flashing members being positioned in an overlapping relationship when the first and second sheet flashing members are arranged in connection with neighbouring roof penetrating structures.
  • the roof penetrating structure may be built-in as a single unit and other roof penetrating structures may subsequently or at the same time be built-in adjacent the first roof penetrating structure, without the need for replacing the flashing of the first structure with a specially designed flashing system.
  • This entails, i.a., that the decision of whether or not to build e.g. two adjacent roof penetrating structures in a roof does not have to be taken at the moment of investing in a single unit, as further units may be built-in subsequently at a later stage, i.e. independently of the first unit.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates the different components of a prior art flashing assembly for two roof windows 1' mounted side-by-side.
  • the flashing comprises an upper flashing member 2', a lower flashing member 6', 7' provided with a skirt 8B', and an outer side flashing member 10'. Corner segments 8A' are provided on the lower flashing members as well as corresponding segments on the upper flashing members.
  • a further flashing member 13' is arranged between the two roof windows.
  • Fig. 2 shows in partial a flashing member 1 of a kit according to the present invention, comprising a sheet member 2 having first and second opposed sheet edges 7, 8 substantially parallel to each other, as well as first and second flanges 3, 4 extending from the first and second sheet edges respectively, the flanges being arranged at an angle relative to the plane of the sheet member, whereby a gutter is formed.
  • the flanges are arranged in parallel to each other and perpendicularly to the sheet member, however, the flanges could also be arranged with different orientations as long as they provide a gutter there between.

  • the higher flange may be provided with an upper flange 5 adapted to engage an upper surface on the window frame.
  • the flanges and the sheet member all extend to the end of the flashing member, however, they may also be of different length.
  • the sheet member forming the bottom surface of the gutter is provided with an adjusting means 6 along the length thereof generally in parallel with the flanges. The adjusting means allows the width of the sheet member between the flanges to be adjusted, or in other words, allowing the distance between the two flanges to be adjusted.
  • the adjusting means may be in any suitable form providing the desired functionality, however, in preferred embodiments an adjustable connection is provided between first and second portions 9, 10 of the sheet member 2.
  • the adjustable connection may be in the form of an additional element allowing elastic or plastic deformation, or it may be in the form of adjustable, cooperating connection means formed on the first and second sheet portions respectively.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the flashing of Fig. 2 and shows a first embodiment for a flashing member comprising adjusting means.
  • the sheet member is divided in two portions 9, 10 having inner 11, 12 and outer edges 7, 8 which, preferably, are substantially parallel to each other.
  • the outer edges 7, 8 connect to first and second flanges 3 and 4, respectively, and the inner edges 11, 12 are connected to each other by a flexible element 6 providing an adjustment means.
  • the flexible element extends along the entire length of the inner edges.
  • the flexible element has wave-corrugations along the length thereof, this allowing the sheet member to adjusted either wider or narrower.
  • a pleated material could be used, however, this is best suited for extension, i.e. widening of the sheet member.
  • the waves or the pleats are arranged in parallel with the inner edges.
  • the sheet member may comprise more than two portions connected by more than one flexible element.
  • a flexible element in accordance with the present invention is to be understood as an element which is more or at least somewhat more flexible than the structures it interconnects.
  • a preferred material for the flexible element would be sandwich flashing materials developed originally for use as skirts in flashings as described in greater detail above.
  • sandwich constructions typically comprise a stress damping and stabilizing core layer of ductile material covered on one or both sides by a foil sheeting.
  • the core layer has typically been made out of polymeric material or bitumen product, and the foil has typically been a thin metal foil such as aluminium foil.
  • Bitumen as a product class is normally adhesive at ambient temperatures which will assure that it will adhere to and stabilize the foil, however, when a non-adhering core material is used it may be necessary to coat the core material with a pressure adhesive coating.
  • Such flashing materials are disclosed in for example Danish Patent Specifications No. 148 064 and No. 145 509 as well as in German patent specification DE-A-4 032 058 .
  • Fig. 4 shows in cross section a further embodiment for an adjusting means connecting the first and second sheet portions in an engaging and adjustable manner.
  • the inner edges of the sheet portions 9, 10 are bent over forming first and second connecting flanges 13, 14 further having upstanding securing edges 15, 16.
  • rabbet channels are formed along the inner edges.
  • the first connecting flange 13 is arranged in the rabbet channel between the second connecting flange 14 and the second sheet portions allowing the sheet portions to be adjusted relative to each other.
  • the securing edges prevent that the sheet portions are pulled apart.
  • This type of connection allows the sheet portions to be adjusted both in- and outwards.
  • the sheet member may comprise more than two portions connected side-by-side to each other.
  • a sheet flashing kit for a roof window comprises two flashing members as described above with reference to Figs 2 to 4 , the flashing members being substantially identical in a state of delivery.
  • Figs. 2 to 4 flashing members have been described which provide a simple gutter structure between outermost flange members.
  • the lower (outer) of the two flanges are normally mounted under a roof surface, such that water flowing from the roof surface is guided into the gutter.
  • the gutter may, in a manner known per se, be divided into two or more narrow gutters by additional upstanding rib structures, whereby the wind will act on a smaller surface.
  • Such a flashing member with an additional rib member is shown in Fig.
  • the rib comprises first and second substantially co-planar sides 21',22' connected at the top 23', this establishing a hollow rib structure.
  • an elastic sealing element 40' may be provided, this as explained in greater detail below.
  • Fig. 4b show an embodiment of the invention using the adjustable width principle as described with reference to Figs. 2 to 4 .
  • these are arranged corresponding to the top edge portion of the ribs.
  • Fig. 4b shows the connection between two sheet flashing members 1 and 1A having substantially identical configuration in a state of delivery.
  • a flexible element 24 of the one sheet flashing member 1 connects the two sides 21,22 allowing the width of the rib member to be adjusted such that a first rib can be mounted on top of a second rib, i.e. of the other sheet flashing member 1A, as illustrated in Fig. 4b .
  • the position of the lower outer flange 4 may be made adjustable, e.g. by additional adjustment means arranged in the vicinity of the outer edge 8, or one or both of the sheet flashing member may undergo some deformation.
  • the flexible elements may be formed integrally with the sheet member by e.g. embossed structures or by thinning the material, or it may be provided as an additional element as described above.
  • first and second flashing members 50,70 each comprises an upstanding rib or flange member 51,71 arranged between the outermost flange members 53,54 and 73,74, respectively, in a general longitudinal direction of the flashing member, each rib comprising first and second substantially co-planar sides connected at their upper edges, this establishing a hollow rib structure.
  • the width of the first rib structure is somewhat larger than the width of the second rib structure, this allowing the first rib to accommodate the second rib.
  • the spacing between the upstanding structures (flanges and ribs) of the first flashing member is chosen to allow for the interconnecting sheet portions 59,60 of the first flashing member to be arranged between the upstanding portions of the second flashing member, i.e. corresponding to the interconnecting sheet portions 79,80 of the second flashing member.
  • some deformation of the flashing members occurs, viz. in the zones ZB and ZC, respectively.
  • a kit of flashing members which can be arranged in order to provide a number of different widths for the flashing between two neighbouring windows.
  • Figs. 5b and 5c illustrate that a pair of matching flashing members as illustrated in Fig. 5a can be arranged to provide either a broad ( Fig. 5b ) or a narrow ( Fig. 5c ) combined gutter flashing.
  • each flashing member comprises a single rib.
  • two or more ribs may be provided allowing for three or more different widths to be chosen corresponding to the situations shown in Figs. 5b and 5c .

  • interlocking means may be arranged on the rib and/or flange members as shown in Fig. 5d .
  • FIG. 6 the principle of a further embodiment of the present invention is shown.
  • This embodiment relies on the concept that two corresponding gutter-like flashing members can be arranged upon each other, the elastic deformation forces being controlled by means of locking the two flashings together, this substantially eliminating an unstable connection which would arise if the flashing members were merely pressed together.
  • the flashing members are identical.
  • First and second flashing members 100, 200 each comprises a sheet portion 109, 201 having first 102, 202 and second 103, 203 flanges.

  • the first and second ridge like connecting means and the connecting flanges are all arranged substantially in parallel with each other and in parallel with the sheet portions.
  • the width between the flanges of at least the lower flashing member is adjusted slightly. Furthermore, the sheet portion 109,201 of each of the flashing members has a tendency of forming a curve (not shown in Fig. 6 ). In order to ease e.g. manual plastic and/or elastic deformation relatively thin and/or flexible material could be used.
  • Figs. 7a to 7d show embodiments in which a set of two substantially identical flashing members, preferably comprising a dividing rib structure, can be arranged fully or partly on top each other.

  • the wave-formed sheet portion comprises hills and dales, fully or partly, arranged in the general longitudinal direction of the flashing, the hills functionally providing the flanges as described with reference to the previous embodiments.
  • the individual hills and dales should be generally symmetrical.
  • the flashing members undergo some deformation, thus adjusting the width between the flanges.
  • the sheet portion comprises more than one dale or one hill, preferably, each dale and each hill have the same geometry allowing two flashing members to be arranged in a number of positions.
  • the hills and dales may have any desirable configuration allowing them to be stacked in accordance with the invention (i.e. very narrow hills and dales would make stacking difficult), for example, the sheet portion may be formed in an angular zigzag pattern as shown in Figs. 7a to 7c or it may have a general sinusoidal cross-section as shown in Figs. 7d and 7e .
  • Fig. 7a shows (in a combination of two identical flashing members) a "minimal" embodiment of a flashing element 700 comprising a flange 701 and a sheet portion 702 with a single dale 710 and two neighbouring hillsides, the ends 720,721 providing the hills in the context of the present invention.
  • the flashing members can be stacked upon each other.
  • Fig. 7b shows (in a combination of two identical flashing members) an embodiment with a full hill 723 and two full neighbouring dales 711,712 providing a rib structure as well as allowing for adjustment of the width providing either a broad ( Fig. 7d ) or a narrow ( Fig. 7c ) combined gutter flashing.
  • Figs. 7e and 7f show a sinusoidal embodiment 750 with a full hill 751 and two full neighbouring dales 752,753 providing a rib structure as well as allowing for adjustment of the width as illustrated. In principle this embodiment corresponds functionally to the embodiment of Figs. 7c and 7d .

  • the upper flashing member is normally formed as a gutter-like member with a flange adapted to be mounted on the upper window frame and a sheet portion adapted to be mounted under the roof surface.
  • a typical lower flashing member comprises a rail element and a skirt element.
  • the rail element is attached to the skirt along an edge thereof and serves as a connecting element between the skirt and, for example, the lower frame portion of a window installed in an inclined roof.
  • the skirt may be a simple sheet member which can be mounted on top of a substantially planar roof surface, however, for use on roof surfaces in the form of undulated tiles with very deep troughs, skirts are used which can be manually deformed or stretched during mounting to enable a good fit between the flashing and roofing.
  • skirts have been made of lead, however, in recent years lead-free skirts have been developed which are typically of a sandwich construction and which may be of simple planar or wave-corrugated and pleated designs.
  • Fig. 8 shows a typical lower flashing member 300 for a roof window, comprising a rail element 301 (or sheet element) and a skirt element 302.
  • the skirt element comprises an upper portion 304 with an upper edge 305 and a main skirt portion with lower edge.
