Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a curved eaves gutter installed at the eaves of buildings such as houses and buildings.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 2A is a schematic plan view showing a conventional eaves gutter, FIG. 2B is a schematic plan view showing an example of its use state, and FIG. 2C is an example of its use state. It is a schematic side view.

Conventionally, an eaves gutter 100 for collecting rainwater is attached to the eaves of a building such as a house or a building. The eaves gutter 100 is made of a metal material or a resin material by an existing molding method. As shown in FIG.

[0004] By the way, there are various shapes of the eaves that have existed for a long time, and curved eaves are also constructed.

[0005] The above-mentioned eaves gutter 10 is also provided on such a curved eaves.
0 is attached, but in this case, the straight eaves gutter 100 cannot be attached as it is.

Therefore, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), when attaching to a curved eave tip curved in the horizontal direction, a straight eaves gutter 100 divided short is connected to the connecting member 1.
01 and the eaves gutter 100 was attached to the curved eaves curved in the horizontal direction.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2C, even when the eaves are mounted on a curved eave which is curved in the vertical direction, the straight eaves gutters 100, which are divided short, are connected by a connecting member 101 and the eaves are connected to the eaves. The eaves gutter 100 was attached to the curved eaves curved in the direction.

[0008]

However, the conventional eaves gutter 1
In the case of 00, it is troublesome to connect a plurality of short eaves gutters 100 that are divided shortly with a large number of connecting members 101 to form a curved line, and it is not possible to form a beautiful curve and the appearance is poor. Was.

For this reason, there has been a demand for an eaves gutter curved to fit a curved eaves.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and provides a curved eaves gutter curved to a curved eaves.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above object, a curved eaves gutter according to claim 1 is an eaves gutter attached to an eaves or the like, and is curved in at least one direction of front and rear and / or up and down. A curved portion is formed.

According to the first aspect, since the curved portion is formed, the curved portion can be attached to a curved eaves without using a large number of connecting members, a beautiful curve can be formed easily and quickly, and the appearance after the construction is good. Can be.

A curved eaves gutter according to claim 2 is formed of a metal material in claim 1.

According to the second aspect, the curved eaves gutter can be formed even with a metal material.

[0015]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A curved eaves gutter A according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1A is a schematic plan view showing one embodiment of a curved eave gutter according to the present invention, FIG. 1B is a schematic side view showing one embodiment of a curved eave gutter according to the present invention, FIG.
Schematic plan view showing an example of a use state using (a),
(D) is a schematic side view showing an example of a use state using FIG. 1 (b).

This curved eaves gutter A is an eaves gutter attached to an eaves or the like, and forms a curved portion 1 which is curved in at least one direction of front and rear and / or up and down.

In FIG. 1A, a curved portion 1 is formed by bending the entire curved eaves gutter A in one direction.
In (b), a curved portion 1 is formed by curving a part of the curved eaves gutter A in one direction up and down.

A plurality of the curved portions 1 can be formed on the curved eaves A, and can be formed in various shapes according to the curved eaves.

The cross section of the curved eaves gutter A is formed in a semicircular gutter shape, a square gutter shape, or another gutter shape.

According to such a curved eaves gutter A, when it is attached to a curved eaves curved horizontally, FIG.
As shown in (c), since it is possible to mount it along a curved eave which is curved in the horizontal direction without using many connecting members, a beautiful curve can be formed easily and quickly, and the appearance after construction is improved. Can be good.

Further, even in the case of mounting on a curved eaves curved in the vertical direction, as shown in FIG.
Since it can be attached to a curved eave curved in the vertical direction without using a large number of connecting members, a beautiful curve can be formed easily and quickly, and the appearance after construction can be improved.

The curved eaves gutter can be formed of a metal material.

Next, a method of manufacturing the curved eaves gutter will be briefly described.

When this curved eaves gutter is made of a resin material, it can be formed by forming a molding die corresponding to the curved shape and injecting the resin material into the mold.

Also, a curved portion can be formed by heating an appropriate place of a straight eaves gutter.

In this way, a curved eaves gutter of resin material can be formed.

When the curved eaves gutter is made of a metal material, it can be formed as follows.

As the metal material, aluminum,
Examples include, but are not limited to, copper, stainless steel, and surface-treated steel sheets.

First, a straight eaves gutter is formed as in the prior art.

A mold is brought into contact with the outer surface and inner surface of the straight eaves gutter, and the straight eaves gutter is gradually bent while pressing the entire eaves gutter in any desired direction of front and rear and / or up and down.

At this time, the bent inner portion serves as a fulcrum, and the outer portion expands, so that a curved eaves gutter can be formed.

[0033]

According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.

According to the curved eaves gutter according to the first aspect, since the curved portion is formed, the curved eaves can be attached to a curved eaves tip without using a large number of connecting members, and a beautiful curve can be formed easily and quickly. , Good appearance after construction.

According to the curved eaves gutter according to the second aspect, the curved eaves gutter can be formed even with a metal material.
