Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a roof snow falling device for sliding down a large amount of snow on a roof of a house during a snowfall season in a heavy snowfall area in a timely manner, and more particularly to a holding device therefor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The inventor of the present invention has already devised a roof snow falling device, which has been disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-14531 and registered as Utility Model Registration No. 1889892. The roof snow fall device according to the inventor's invention is made of a laminated film of a rubber-like elastic body and a woven fabric material, and has an upper flat portion and a bottom flat portion joined to each other at one side edge and expands. At least one inflatable / compressible bag-like body which sometimes has a substantially trapezoidal side surface shape whose upper side is longer and which folds the side surface into a single wall during compression is provided, and the bottom flat portion is stretched and fixed. Then, the roof is equipped with compression, and when the bag-like body is inflated by pressurizing gas at substantially the outside temperature at a desired time, the snow on the upper flat portion is inclined by the inclination of the upper flat portion to the one side edge. This makes it possible to slide down the snow, and the snow cover over the entire surface of the roof can be slid down all at once in a heavy snowfall area, so that the snowfall can be saved and the handling is relatively easy.

[0003]

The above-mentioned roof snow sliding device has a very good effect on snow falling, but on the other hand, due to the weather resistance of its material, it is removed from the roof after the snow season ends and the snow falls. Shortly before the period, it had to be installed on the rooftop.

[0004] However, in the home of the elderly, which has been increasing in recent years, it is dangerous to remove and install the rooftop snow-slipping device, which is considerably large and heavy, on the rooftop. There were many situations in which the securing of human resources for this purpose was hindered, and the rooftop snow fall equipment that could not be used could not be used.

[0005] Therefore, there has been an increasing desire to keep the roof snow slide down device on the roof all year without falling or raising it from the roof. Recently, however, it has been used for the roof snow slide down device. Since a material having excellent weather resistance has been obtained as a material of the rubber-like elastic body, it has become possible to install the roof on the whole year.

[0006] However, it has now been found that a new problem arises. In other words, this new problem is that if the roof snow slide device is not removed from the roof and left as it is, the roof snow slide device (hereinafter simply referred to as the device)
Is soaring under the strong wind near the rooftop ridge. This means that if a strong wind blows during the snowy season, the equipment will not rise because the equipment is held down by the snow on the equipment, but after the snowy season, there will be no snowfall in the holding and soaring when the strong wind blows, There is a risk of damaging the device itself or the house where the device is mounted.

[0007] It is an object of the present invention to prevent the device from soaring due to strong winds even in the absence of snow, thus eliminating the risk of damaging the roof snow fall device itself or the house to which the device is attached as described above. An object of the present invention is to provide a holding device for a rooftop snow fall device (hereinafter simply referred to as a device holding device).

[0008]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, an apparatus presser according to the present invention comprises a laminated film of a rubber-like elastic body and a woven fabric material, and has an upper flat portion joined to each other at one side edge. And at least one inflatable / compressible bag-like body having a bottom plane portion and having a substantially trapezoidal side surface shape with an upper side longer when inflated and folding the side surface into a single wall during compression. The bottom flat portion is stretched and fixed, and is equipped with a compression device on the roof. When the bag-like body is expanded at a desired timing by injecting a gas having substantially the outside temperature, the upper flat portion is inclined by the inclination of the upper flat portion. A rooftop snowfall device for sliding the upper snowfall over the one side edge, the rooftop snowfall device for preventing the snowfall from rising due to strong winds when not in use, and the rooftop snowfall device. The holding device of the sliding device is
It consists of a net-like sheet around which a strong rope is arranged, and the net-like sheet covers at least the upper flat part of the rooftop snow sliding device at the time of the compression installed on the roof at a portion close to the ridge, It is characterized by being fixed to a structure provided on the roof via the rope.

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below based on embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG.
(A) and (b) show the section of the roof snow fall device according to the present invention when compressed and expanded, respectively, described in the section of the prior art, and show how the snow device slides down by the device. Is shown.

[0010] That is, FIG. 1A shows that snow is piled on the roof snow fall device at the time of compression, and one side BC of the triangle closest to the building (see FIG. 1B) is a point. D
Is folded inside the triangle, and the upper plane AB is a plane with a hard inclination. FIG. 1 (b)
The figure shows that the device is inflated by the inclusion of air, and the folded portion is expanded to a complete triangle ABC, and the steep slope of the upper plane AB is used to slide down the snow cover. The length of the upper plane AB of the roof snow slide device may extend from the ridge to the top of the eaves according to the flow length of the roof.

FIG. 2 is a top view showing how the roof snow falling device is installed on the roof of a house. In FIG. 2, a total of twelve rooftop snow sliding devices from a to l indicated by dashed lines, respectively, are provided for two slopes of the rooftop, a1 to a3 and b1 respectively.
It is attached using the snow stopper of b3. Here, the reason why the rooftop snow fall device is divided and installed for each of two rooftop slopes instead of one is that the device is heavy to some extent and that gas such as air is injected and used. Therefore, it is necessary to handle with care so as not to damage it.

Hereinafter, the device presser of the present invention will be described. The device holding device of the present invention prevents the roof snow slide device installed on the roof as described above from flying up by strong wind even when there is no snowfall. FIG. 3 shows the structure of an embodiment of the device holding device. Show.

The device holder shown in FIG. 3 is designed in shape and size so that it can be used in common for a plurality of roof snow slide devices indicated by reference numerals a to l in FIG. In FIG. 3, a portion 1 indicated by a cross hatch
Is a net-like sheet, and a bold line 2 indicates a strong rope arranged around the net-like sheet. The four corners of the rope are indicated by A, B, D and C.

The device holding member is made of a net-like sheet so that the device itself does not fly up due to strong winds, and the rope is used for attaching to a rooftop or other structure provided on the roof. . Here, as a method of arranging the rope around the mesh sheet, for example, as shown in FIG.
It is advantageous to wrap the rope in a mesh sheet.

The rope must be sufficiently strong because it is necessary to fix the roof snow slide down device to the roof so that the roof snow slide down device will not lose its strength due to the strong wind. Must-have. Also,
In the present invention, the rope is arranged around the mesh sheet, and is fixed to the structure provided on the rooftop through the rope. When the mesh sheet is fixed directly to the structure, the strength is increased. This is because it is not enough and it is easy to tear from there.
