Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a closed plate for an eaves gutter of a house.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in houses mainly in urban areas, there is little space between adjacent houses, and in order to make the room wider, the eaves must be reduced. Buildings with simple structures are also increasing.

[0003] In such a building, a closed member such as avoiding falling leaves is often attached to the upper opening of the eaves gutter so as to prevent fallen leaves and the like from clogging the eaves gutter with rainwater.
Especially when there are deciduous trees near the roof, a large amount of defoliation falls on the roof every year, and when the deciduous leaves enter the eaves gutter, they corrode or impede the flow of rainwater.

[0004] For this reason, when an eaves gutter is constructed at the tip of an eave, a closed plate having a semi-circular wire net formed on the upper part of the eaves has been conventionally placed on the eaves gutter. This wire mesh allowed rainwater to pass through but not large leaves.

[0005] In other words, in order to prevent fallen leaves and dust falling from the roof surface due to wind or the like from falling into the eaves gutter and staying there, they are first prevented from entering the inside.
If fallen leaves enter the eaves gutter in this way, they can impede flow and cause corrosion.To do so, a structure is required that allows rainwater to flow down but leaves do not enter the eaves gutter. Leaving them for a period of time may cause them to corrode and cause clogging of eaves gutters.

[0006]

As described above, when a conventional net-shaped closed plate is installed at the tip of the eaves and the leaves fall on the mesh, rainwater may not be able to be drained sufficiently. Also, it was difficult to be scattered even by the wind.

[0007] That is, in the case where the net-shaped closed plate is formed by projecting upward, the axis of the dead leaf is often stuck in the net, and if the fallen leaves are accumulated, the appearance of the eaves can be impaired in design. there were. Also, attaching a closed plate that protrudes upward gives the eaves gutter a protruding appearance, which also affects the design of the entire building.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to satisfy the above-mentioned conditions, a plate for closing an eaves gutter according to the present invention is closed by a plate having a large number of water holes formed in an opening at an upper part of an eaves gutter. The closed plate is provided with an inclined piece whose height is higher at the rear, and is provided with a slit-shaped water hole in the center. In addition, a front inclined piece is formed by inclining upward also at the front end, and an engaging piece is formed by folding the end edge thereof.

This inclined piece can be straight or curved, but its purpose is to make the fallen leaves and the like easy to slide forward, and the rainwater splash does not scatter on the nose shield. Is to do

[0010]

[Function] In other words, leaves and debris collected on the upper part of the closed plate flow down with rainwater from the waterfall hole, and large ones remain at the top without entering the eaves gutter. When it is dried, it scatters on the ground due to wind. Further, by forming the slit-shaped waterfall hole along the longitudinal direction of the eaves gutter, it is possible to prevent falling leaves and the like from being caught in the gap of the slit, and to make it easier to fly by wind and the like.

Also, since such a closed plate is attached, fallen leaves and dust do not enter the eaves gutter, and maintenance after construction is almost unnecessary. At this time, the fallen leaves are liable to be gathered at the central portion by slipping due to the inclined pieces, and the gathered leaves are dried and easily scattered.

The type of this material is not fixed, and the thickness and length are determined by the size of the eaves gutter to be formed, and are not particularly limited to these values.

Two steps are formed in the lower portion of the front plate 12 along the horizontal direction, for the purpose of reinforcing the front plate 12 and improving the design. A step 14 is formed at the lower portion of the back plate 13, which escapes the height of a fixing piece 34 described later and comes into contact with the eaves gutter D and the nose cover C so as not to form a gap. It is provided for.

The upper edges of the front plate 12 and the back plate 13 are bent so as to be lowered inward to provide an inclined plate 15a.
Further, a horizontal plate 16 is provided by bending the lower end outward, and a front engagement piece 15 having a substantially triangular cross section is formed. The upper edge of the rear plate 13 is also bent inward to form an inclined plate 17a.
The horizontal plate 18 is further bent outward to form a substantially triangular rear engagement piece 17 similarly to the front plate 12.

A closed plate 2 is installed on the upper part of the eaves gutter D, which closes the upper opening of the eaves gutter D and the inside of the eaves gutter is filled with debris such as fallen leaves or snow. Is prevented from entering the inside. The closed plate 2 is formed by bending a thin metal plate like the eaves gutter D, and its material and thickness may be designed in accordance with the eaves gutter. Things.

At the center of the closed plate 2 in the width direction, water-drop holes 25 are narrowed in two rows at a constant interval along the longitudinal direction. The drop hole 25 in the illustrated example has a width of 3 mm and a length of 30 m.
