Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a roof joint cover that covers a joint between two buildings over a roof surface of an adjacent building.

[Prior Art] When covering joints between buildings having a rooftop surface,
The joint formed between the side walls of the adjacent building is covered with an outer wall cover, and the joint at the roof is covered with a roof joint cover. The outer wall cover is generally called an expansion joint and can follow the movement between buildings.

In the conventional configuration of the roof joint cover, a main cover portion that covers the joint from above, straddling the roof of an adjacent building via the joint, and is disposed at both ends of the main cover portion. And a fore-edge cover part. Then, in a state of being attached to the roof, the upper end portion of the outer wall cover portion is covered with a fore edge cover portion. A gap of about 25 mm is provided between the upper end of the outer wall cover and the fore edge cover.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] When the buildings greatly shake in the approaching direction due to uneven settlement of the ground of the building, an earthquake, or a storm, the outer wall cover is greatly tilted accordingly.

By the way, in the conventional roof joint cover, the outer wall cover comes into contact with the inner surface of the fore edge cover portion as the outer wall cover tilts. For this reason, the fore-edge cover is fixed integrally with the main body cover, and the impact may cause the fore-edge cover to bend or break.

Furthermore, even when the outer wall cover is not provided, when the buildings move relative to each other along the joint,
One of the buildings collides with the fore-edge cover, causing the same problem as described above.

An object of the present invention is to provide a roof joint cover that can eliminate the above-mentioned problems.

[Means for Solving the Problems] According to the present invention, at least one of the fore-edge cover is rotatably connected to an upper edge coupled to an edge of the main cover and a lower edge of the upper edge. And a supporting edge for locking the lid at a substantially vertical position is provided at an edge of the main body cover part, one end of a tension spring is provided on the lid, and the other end is provided on the other side. It is characterized in that the lid is fixed to the main body cover portion, and the lid is elastically contacted with the supporting edge by the biasing force of the tension spring to hold the lid in a vertical position.

[Operation] When the building relatively moves along the joint, and when the outer wall joint cover or the building body provided on the side wall of the building comes into contact with the fore-edge cover, the lid body is opposed to the tension spring. Is tilted outward, and the fore-edge cover follows the relative movement of the building without damage.

Further, when the above-mentioned building is in a stationary position, the lid is held vertically by elastic contact with the supporting edge by the tension spring, so that the lid securely covers the edge opening of the main body cover. No backlash is caused by the wind or the like, and the upper end of the joint is covered to prevent the inflow of rainwater or the like.

[Embodiment] One embodiment of the roof joint cover C of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

The joint cover C is a main body cover 1 that covers the joint along the joint.
And joint covers 2a and 2b provided at both ends of the joint cover C. The joint cover C has a roof-like shape that gently slopes down from the center top end 1a to both sides, and the roof surface of the adjacent building x, x Over the joint y between the buildings x, x along the joint y.

On both sides of the buildings x, x, outer wall covers 6 covering the joints y with side surfaces are provided, the upper ends of which are extended to near the rooftops of the buildings x, x, and the upper ends thereof are fore-edge cover portions 2a. , 2b. The upper end of the outer wall cover 6 and the fore edge cover 2
A gap of about 25 mm is provided between a and 2b.

The fore-edge cover 2a includes an upper edge 3 connected to one end of the main body cover 1 and a lid 4 supported by the upper edge 3. More specifically, the upper edge 3 is The hinge 5 has a substantially triangular shape, and a hinge 5 is provided on the lower edge thereof, and the hinge 5 supports the rectangular lid 4 so as to be rotatable in the front-rear direction.

The lid 4 is urged inward by the tension springs 10, 10 to resiliently support the supporting edges 8, 8 formed of L-shaped pieces fixed to the inner surfaces of the edges of both side walls 1b, 1b of the main cover 1. And is supported in a substantially vertical position.

The tension springs 10, 10 have one ends fixed to spring hanging pieces 11, 11 fixed to the inner surfaces on both sides of the lid 4, and the other ends fixed to spring hanging pieces 12, 12, fixed to both side walls 1b, 1b, respectively. As described above, both sides of the lid 4 are biased inward. Thereby, in the steady state, the lid 4 is elastically contacted with the supporting edges 8, 8 by the tension springs 10, 10 and held in the vertical position, so that the opening formed at the end of the main body cover 1 is securely covered, There is no fluttering even when the wind blows, and the joint y of the building x, x is covered by the joint y
Rainwater does not blow into the water.

The outer wall cover 6 is capable of following relative movement of an adjacent building called an expansion joint, and as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, each of the two outer walls is fixed to one of the buildings so as to be rotatable. It is configured by overlapping the cover plates 7a and 7b. For this reason, even when the building moves relatively up, down, left, and right, the relative movement of the cover plates 7a, 7b can follow the movement.

In such a configuration, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when the building relatively moves in the direction of the arrow along the joint cover, when the building x, x relatively moves beyond the gap, the outer wall The cover 6 tilts greatly, and the lower edge of one cover 7a contacts the inner surface of the lid 4 of the fore-edge cover 2a. However, since the lid 4 is rotatably connected by a hinge 5 provided on the upper edge 3 of the fore-edge cover 2a and is urged inward by the tension springs 10, 10, the lid 4 is attached with the contact. It tilts outward against the force, so that the fore edge cover 2a and the cover 7a do not bend or break.

Further, since the outer wall cover 6 can follow the vertical and horizontal directions of the building, it can eventually follow the relative movement of the buildings x and x in the three-dimensional direction without difficulty. Therefore, the joint y can be covered without any trouble against an earthquake, a storm or the like.

In addition, various structures of the outer wall cover have been proposed, in addition to one having two cover plates fixed at one end to the building, one having two cover plates rotatably fixed to the building at one end. Various proposals can be made, such as a single cover plate having one end fixed to any building and the other end being a free end.

Furthermore, at least one of the fore-edge cover portions provided at both ends of the cover main body portion has an upper edge portion coupled to the edge of the main body cover portion, and rotatably suspended from the lower edge of the upper edge portion. In the above-described embodiment, the lid 4 is configured such that the lid 4 is rotatably hung on the upper edge 3 of the fore-edge cover 2a by the hinge 5; Any configuration may be used as long as the configuration supports the upper edge 3 and the lid 4 so as to be rotatable, such as a configuration in which a projection is fitted, and various configurations can be proposed.

In the above-described configuration, the lid 4 is supported only on one of the fore-edge covers 2a. However, the lid 4 is disposed on both the fore-edge covers 2a and 2b, and the tension spring 10 is provided. , 10 may be biased inward.

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention, as clarified by the above description,
At least one of the fore-edge cover portions provided at both ends of the main body cover portion has an upper edge portion coupled to an edge of the main body cover portion, and a lid body rotatably suspended at a lower edge of the upper edge portion. Consisting of
Since the lid is biased inward to a substantially vertical position by a tension spring, the buildings move relative to each other along the joint due to an earthquake or storm, and the outer wall cover or the building has Even when the lid comes into contact with the inner surface, the lid is tilted outward, so that no excessive force is applied to the fore-edge cover, and the fore-edge cover and the outer wall cover abutment can be prevented from being damaged. It is easy to manufacture because it has a simple structure with a lid, and furthermore, the tension springs 10 and 1
Due to the urging action of 0, in a steady state, it comes into elastic contact with the supporting edge fixed to the main body cover 1 and is supported at a substantially vertical position, so that the end of the main body cover 1 does not flutter even when the wind blows. There is an excellent effect that the opening formed in the portion is surely covered and the function of the joint cover is not impaired.
