Description
METHOD, SYSTEM AND UNIT FOR INSULATING BUILDINGS The present invention relates to a unit, system and method for providing insulation for buildings and particularly for the regions in the roof space of buildings where the ceiling and roof meet.
It is usual to insulate buildings to mitigate against heat transfer between the interior and exterior of buildings. Insulation can be provided on walls and ceilings, One example is the provision of insulation in the roof space.
This requirement is often mandated for new buildings through legal regulation, although this can vary from country to country.
However, many existing homes were built at a time when building insulation was neither considered, recommended nor required. Poor insulation can lead to increased heating (or cooling) costs and, in response to rising energy costs, retrofitting insulation is increasingly being carried out.
Whether retrofitting, or newly-fitting, roof insulation, one of the problems that can occur is the fitting of insulation into the regions of the roof space where a pitched roof and a flat ceiling meet.
This space can be extremely small and difficult to access, particularly when retrofitting the insulation. The nature of commonly-used insulation materials make it difficult to fit in the confined space and this leads to gaps in the insulation which means that the insulation does not perform optimally.
According to the present invention, there is provided a roof insulation unit comprising a first insulation supporting member having a first body of insulating material attached thereto, and a second insulation supporting member having a second body of insulating material attached thereto, the first and second insulation supporting members being configured for adjustable positioning with respect to each other such that the first body of insulating material and the second body of insulating material are, in use, configured to abut one another to define a region of substantially continuous insulating material between the first and second insulation support members.
This has the advantage of enabling insulating material to be easily fitted into the confined space in the roof space where the ceiling meets the roof It accommodates varying pitches of roof whilst still providing substantially continuous insulation in this space.
The first insulation support member may comprise a first sheet and the second insulation support member may comprise a second sheet, the first and second sheets each having an underside, the first body of insulating material being attached to the underside of the first sheet and the second body of insulating material being attached to the underside of the second sheet.
The first and second sheets may be hingedly connected to each other along an edge of the first and second sheets to enable adjustable positioning with respect to each other around a pivot axis defined by the edges of the first and second sheets, such that the first body of insulating material and the second body of insulating material can be configured to abut one another to define the region of substantially continuous insulating material.
The first and second sheets may be hingedly connected by means of a living hinge, a barrel hinge, roller hinge or any other suitable hinge.
Alternatively, the first sheet and the second sheet may be formed integrally as a single sheet having a region of flexibility such that the single sheet can be bent so that the first body of insulating material and the second body of insulating material may be brought into abutment with each other.
The first insulating support member and the second insulating support member may be unconnected.
The first and second bodies of insulating material have a profile, in a direction towards the pivot axis, which varies in depth. The depth decreases in the direction towards pivot axis.
The profile may be a stepped profile. The use of stepped profile is particularly good at accommodating different pitch angles and a better provision of substantially continuous insulation.
Alternatively it can be a sloped or triangular profile.
One of the first or second sheet may have a ventilation tray attached to its upper side.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a roof insulation unit comprising a first insulation supporting member comprising a sheet having an underside and having a first body of insulating material attached thereto, and a second insulation supporting member comprising a sheet having an underside and having a second body of insulating material pivotably attached thereto, the first and second sheets being hingedly connected to each other along an edge of the first and second sheets to enable adjustable positioning with respect to each other around a pivot axis defined by the edges of the first and second sheets, such that the first body of insulating material and the second body of insulating material can be configured to abut one another to define a region of substantially continuous insulating material.
The first and second insulation support members may be made of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) or polypropylene.
The first and second insulation support members may have a width of less than 600mm and more preferably between 350 mm and 550 mm, The length of the insulation support members may have a length less than 1000mm and more preferably 800 mm.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of insulating a cavity in a roof space, the roof space being defined by a ceiling and a pitched roof, in a region where the pitched roof meets the ceiling, the method including the steps of: inserting a first insulation supporting member, having a first body of insulating material attached thereto, against the ceiling at an apex point where the ceiling and the pitched roof meet, and inserting a second insulation supporting member, having a second body of insulating material attached thereto, against an underside of the roof at the apex point region such that the first and second insulating support members abut when at the apex and the first body of insulating material and the second body of insulating material abut one another to define a region of substantially continuous insulating material between the ceiling and the roof.
The method may further include the steps of: pivoting the first and second insulation support members around a pivot axis defined by first and second abutting edges of respective first and second insulation support members such that the angle subtended between them decreases, and the first and second bodies of insulating material abut to define the region of substantially continuous insulating material.
The method may further include the steps of: placing a contacting surface for the first insulation support member against the inner surface of the ceiling with the abutting edges directed towards the apex point, pivoting the second insulation support member around the pivot axis towards the first insulation support member as the hinged edges move to the apex point, such that a second contacting surface of the second insulation material support member contacts the inner surface of the roof, whereby the first and second insulation support members are retained in position as a consequence of the forces between the roof and ceiling and the contact first and second insulation support members.
According to a third aspect of the invention, there is provided a roof insulation system comprising one or more of the roof insulation units.
The invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, of which: Figure 1 is a perspective view of an insulation unit in accordance with the invention in which first and second insulation support members are in an open position; Figure 2 is a perspective view of the insulation unit of Figure 1 in which first and second insulation support members are configured in an arrangement so as to provide a region of substantially continuous insulating material between the first and second insulation support members; Figure 3 is an alternative perspective view of the insulation unit of Figure 1 in which first and second insulation support members are configured in an arrangement so as to provide a region of substantially continuous insulating material between the first and second insulation support members; Figure 4 is a schematic side view the insulation unit in the direction of arrow IV in Figure 1; Figure 5 is a schematic side view the insulation unit in the direction of arrow V in Figure 1; and Figure 6 illustrates schematically the positioning of a unit of Figures 1 to 5 in a conventional roof space.
A roof insulation unit 1 comprises a first insulation supporting member 2 in the form of a rectangular sheet which is hingedly connected to a second insulation supporting member 3.
The second insulation support member 3 is also in the form of a rectangular sheet.
Each of the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 have an hinged edge 5, 6 along which the two support members 2, 3 are hingedly connected. Each of the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 also have an outer edge 16, 17.
This hinged connection between the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 enables the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 to pivot at the hinged edges 5, 6 around a pivot axis 23 is indicated in Figure 1.
The hinged connection between the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 may be of the form of a living hinge or any other suitable hinged connection.
Each of the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 have a respective underside 7, 8 and a respective contacting surface 9, 10 opposite to the underside 7, 8.
The first insulation support member 2 has a first body of insulating material 11 attached to its respective underside 7. The second insulation support member 3 has a second body of insulating material 12 attached to its respective underside 8.
The insulating material can be any suitable material. Preferably, the material is deformable. In this embodiment, the insulating material is a mineral wool provided in quilted fonm The first and second insulation support members 2, 3 are made from any suitable material such as a semi-rigid plastics material, such as PVC or polypropylene.
One of the first or second insulation support members 2, 3 has a ventilator tray 13 attached to its respective contacting surface 9, 10. In the embodiment described herein, the second insulation support member 3 has the ventilator tray 13 attached to the second contacting surface 10.
The use of ventilator trays in insulation systems is well known in the art and need not be described in any further detail herein except as is relevant to the present invention.
Ventilator trays are used to provide a pathway for air to flow from outside of the building into the roof space at the region adjacent the underside of the roof In the embodiment described herein, the ventilator is corrugated with the corrugations having a substantially square or rectangular-shaped profile to define a plurality of channels 14 through air can be directed to provide the required ventilation.
The ventilator tray 13 is made of any suitable plastics material such as PVC or polypropylene.
The insulation support members 2, 3 would typically have a width of around 350mm or 550mm for rafters spaced at 400 mm or 600mm centres respectively. The length of the insulation support members would be approximatcly 800 mm. However, the dimensions can be chosen to suit the roof design parameters as required.
The first and second insulation supporting members 2, 3 are configured to be pivotable around the pivot axis 23 such that the angle 0 subtended by the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 can be varied by simply manually grasping the outer edges 16, 17 and pivoting the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 about the pivot axis 23 so as to move the outer edges 16, 17 together or apart as required as indicated by the double-headed arrows A and B in Figures 1 and 4.
In an initial position, the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 are configured so as to subtend an angle 0 of substantially 180° such that the roof insulation unit 1 has a longitudinal axis 15. This is illustrated in Figure 1.
The first and second bodies of insulating material 11, 12 have a stepped profile in the direction of the longitudinal axis 15 such that the depth of first and second bodies of insulating material 11, 12 decreases in the direction of the longitudinal axis 15 towards the pivot axis 23. Alternatively, the profile could be a sloped or triangular in shape.
During positioning, and as the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 are pivoted around the pivot axis 23 and moved together, the angle 0 subtended between them decreases and the first and second bodies of insulating material 11, 12 abut to form a region of substantially continuous insulating material. At this abutment position, the angle 0 is typically 45° or less and the material from which the first and second bodies of insulating material 11, 12 are compressed such that the stepped profile is no longer evident.
Typically, pitched roofs have an angle of 30° to 40° so the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 will subtend this angle when placed in situ. This is illustrated schematically in Figures 2 and 3.
To position the roof insulation unit 1 within a roof space 22, an operator grasps the outer edges 16, 17 with hinged edges 5,6 directed in the direction of the region in which the roof insulation unit 1 is to be positioned. The angle 0 subtended between the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 is less than 90°.
The roof insulation unit 1 is placed such that the contacting surface 9 for the first insulation support member 2 is against the inner surface of the ceiling 18 with the hinged edge 5, 6 directed towards the apex point 20 at which the ceiling 18 and roof 19 meet, this being the region in which the roof insulation unit 1 is to be positioned.
As the hinged edges 5, 6 move to the apex point 20, the second insulation support member 3, with manual operator control, is moved towards the first insulation support member 2, and the second contacting surface 10, with the ventilator tray 13 attached, contacts the inner surface of the roof 19, and between the rafters 21.
When the hinged edges 5, 6 reach the apex point 20, the roof insulation unit 1 is configured such that the first and second bodies of insulating material 11, 12 abut each other to form a substantially continuous region of insulating material. The first and second insulation support members 2, 3, and consequently the roof insulating unit 1, are retained in position as a consequence of the forces between the roof and ceiling and the contact first and second insulation support members 2, 3.
Additional roof insulation 24 can then be put in place in the usual maimer.
This is illustrated schematically in Figure 6 which shows the roof insulation unit 1 in situ.
For clarity, not all features of the roof insulating unit 1 are shown in this Figure.
The first and second bodies of insulating material 11, 12 do not extend all the way to the hinged edges 5, 6 but do provide a small gap so that the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 are able to optimise the angle 0 that may be subtended between them when in place in the roof space 22.
A roof insulating system of the present invention uses one or more of the roof insulation units 1 described above to insulate the roof space as required.
In alternatives, the first and second insulation supporting members 2, 3 can be separate members. In this case, the first and second insulation support members 2, 3 are positioned separately, but the operation is the same as for the first embodiment described above. l0
Alternatively, the first sheet and the second sheet may be formed integrally as a single sheet having a region of flexibility such that the first body of insulating material and the second body of insulating material may be brought into abutment with each other.
