Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an eaves gutter apparatus provided at the eaves of a building to receive rainwater flowing down from a roof.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 4, there is known an eaves gutter device in which an eaves gutter (c) is held by an eaves gutter holder (b) fixed to an eaves (a). The eaves gutter (c) in the eaves gutter device has a square gutter shape, and the front wall is formed higher than the rear wall.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional technology, when the construction is performed in a snowy area, the snow on the roof is not covered by the roof (d).
The eaves gutter (c) and the eaves gutter holder (b) holding the eaves gutter were easily damaged by the weight of the fallen snow. In addition, as an eaves gutter for snowy areas,
An eaves gutter device as shown in the figure is also known. In the eaves gutter device, an eaves gutter (C) is formed in a cylindrical shape, and a large number of flow holes (E) are formed in an upper surface thereof. In the eaves gutter, the snowfall that has fallen from the roof top (d) slides down along the arcuate upper surface of the eaves gutter (c) and relatively falls on the upper surface of the eaves gutter (d). Although it is difficult to pile up, even in this case, snow is easily accumulated between the rear side of the upper surface of the eaves gutter (c) and the roof top (d). Means that rainwater, which should originally be collected in the eaves gutter (c), is not reliably guided into the eaves gutter (c) from the circulation hole (e), and the arc-shaped upper surface of the eaves gutter (c) It was easy to fall along the part.

The present invention has been devised in order to solve all the problems in the above-mentioned conventional technology, that is, the problem is that, when constructed in a snowy area, the snow on the snow falls smoothly, Hard to break by load,
Moreover, it is an object of the present invention to provide an eaves gutter device in which rainwater smoothly flows into the eaves gutter main body, is collected and hardly falls.

[Means for solving the problem]

The eaves gutter device of the present invention has a cover body inclined forward and downward on the upper side of the eaves gutter main body. The cover body is supported and attached to the upper end portion of the standing piece portion that is erected in a fixed state, the rear end portion of the cover body is placed under the rooftop, and the upper surface portions are substantially flush with each other. And the front edge of the cover body, which is the front end of the front lower slope, is located slightly behind the front upper edge of the eaves gutter main body,
The inflow gap is provided between the front edge of the cover body and the front upper edge of the eaves gutter body, and the above-mentioned problem has been solved by this configuration.

[Action]

In the eaves gutter device of the present invention, since a cover body inclined forward and downward is attached to the upper side of the eaves gutter body, when it is constructed in a snowy area, the snowfall that has fallen from the rooftop is not covered by the cover. The cover body and the eaves gutter body under the cover body are hardly damaged by the snow load, and the front end edge of the cover body and the eaves gutter are guided by sliding downward on the body forward and downward. Since an inflow gap is provided between the front upper edge of the main body and the inflow gap, rainwater that has flowed down the cover body to the front and downward direction flows into the eaves gutter main body from the inflow gap. It is difficult for the rainwater to fall down, and rainwater that flows down as water droplets on the cover body easily flows into the inflow gap, but snow that clumps down on the cover body and slides down hardly enters. Further, in this case, the front edge of the cover body, which is the front end of the front downward slope, is located slightly behind the front upper edge of the eaves gutter body, so that the cover body vigorously flows down along the front downward slope. The rainwater that has flowed in from the front edge of the cover body into the inflow gap below the cover body without fail, and the cover body does not protrude greatly above the eaves gutter body, so that the appearance of fitting in front of the eaves is good. It is what becomes. In particular, in the eaves gutter device of the present invention, the cover is supported and attached to the upper end portion of the standing piece that is erected in an unfixed state with respect to the eaves, and the rear end of the cover is attached to the roof top. Since it is placed on the lower side and its upper surface part is continuous so that it is almost flush with each other, snow flows smoothly down the upper surface from the roof top to the cover body,
Since the cover body can move slightly with respect to the roof, the snow on the cover moves slightly downward and forward by the weight of the cover to separate it from the snow on the roof. It can be dropped smoothly.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

The eaves gutter device shown in FIG. 1 is an embodiment of the present invention, in which a cover body 2 inclined forward and downward is disposed above an eaves gutter main body 1.
The cover body 2 is supported on the upper end portion of an erecting piece portion 20 which is fixed to the eaves 14 and supports the eaves gutter main body 1 to suspend and support the eaves gutter body 1 upwardly in an unfixed state with respect to the eaves gutter 14. Attach,
The rear end portion of the cover body 2 is placed under the roof 21 so that the upper surface portions thereof are continuous with each other so as to be substantially flush with each other, and the front end edge serving as the front end of the cover body 2 inclined forward and downward. Part 3
Is positioned slightly behind the front upper edge 4 of the eaves gutter main body 1, and an inflow gap 5 is provided between the front end edge 3 of the cover body 2 and the front upper edge 4 of the eaves gutter main body 1. It is. As shown in FIG. 2, the eaves gutter main body 1 and the cover body 2 are formed by bending a band-shaped plate body in which a metal core material 7 is inserted into a synthetic resin layer 6 by bender processing or roll forming processing. Is formed. The strip-shaped plate is integrally extruded into a shape in which lugs 8 are provided at both ends of the synthetic resin layer 6. The eaves gutter main body 1 includes a bottom wall portion 9 and a front wall portion 10 and a rear wall portion 11 continuous with the front side and the rear side of the bottom wall portion 9, respectively.
It is composed of The front wall portion 10 includes a rear wall portion 11
The front wall 10 has a stepped portion 12 for drainage, which is formed lower than the bottom wall 9 and is continuous with the bottom wall 9 in a curved shape. In the step 12 for draining,
The rainwater that has fallen on the front surface of the front wall portion 10 of the eaves gutter main body 1 is drained off and does not reach the bottom wall portion 9. The upper end of the front wall portion 10 is bent inward, and a locking groove 13 is formed between the front wall portion 10 and the ear portion 8. The bent corner portion is formed on the front upper edge of the eaves gutter main body 1. 4 is obtained. At that time, the locking groove 13 at the upper end of the front wall portion 10 of the eaves gutter main body 1 is engaged with the upwardly bent front end portion of the front end piece inclined downward and forward of the eaves gutter holder 15, On the other hand, the ear 8 at the rear end of the eaves gutter main body 1 is suspended and supported by a substantially U-shaped holding portion 17 provided below the rear end of the eaves gutter holder 15. is there. In this case, a leaf spring is
The leaf spring 18 prevents the ear portion 8 locked on the holding portion 17 from coming off.
The cover body 2 is supported by the eaves gutter holder 15 and is attached to the upper side of the eaves gutter main body 1. At this time, the front end of the cover body 2 is curved inward, and the curved portion becomes the front end edge portion 3.
Is held by a holding piece 19 provided above the front end piece of the eave gutter holder 15 and a leaf spring 18 provided above the holding piece 19, while the rear end of the cover body 2 is downward. The upper end portion of the standing piece 20, which is bent in the middle of the eaves gutter holder 15, and is bent rearward in the middle, Is fixed by being sandwiched by a leaf spring 18 provided below the upper end portion of the.
In this case, the rear end of the cover 2 is housed under the roof 21 and the upper surfaces thereof are substantially flush with each other and continuous. And the front end 3 of the cover body 2 has an inwardly curved shape as described above. Since the inflow gap 5 (about 10 to 20 mm) is located slightly behind the front upper edge 4 (about 5 to 10 mm) and forms an inflow gap 5 (about 10 to 20 mm) with the front upper edge 4, From the roof 2 is slidingly guided onto the cover 2 and falls very smoothly from the cover 2, and the rainwater from the roof 21 is discharged onto the cover 2. It flows down and smoothly flows down and forward on the cover 2, and flows down very smoothly from the inflow gap 5 into the eaves gutter main body 1. It will be watered. Therefore, in this embodiment, the cover body 2 and the eaves gutter main body 1 below the cover body 2 are hardly damaged by the snow load when constructed in a snowy area, and the rainwater flows from the inflow gap 5 through the eaves gutter 5. The rainwater flows into the main body 1 and is hard to fall down, and the rainwater which flows down as water droplets on the cover body 2 easily flows into the inflow gap 5, but is hardened on the cover body 2. The snow that slides down is difficult to get into. Furthermore, since the front edge 3 serving as the front end of the front lower slope of the cover body 2 is located slightly behind the front upper edge section 4 of the eaves gutter main body 1, the cover body 2 is moved along the front lower slope. The rainwater that has flowed down steadily flows from the front edge 3 of the cover body 2 into the inflow gap 5 below the cover body 2, and does not protrude significantly above the eaves gutter body 1 of the cover body 2. The appearance in front of the eaves 14 is good. In this case, the cover 2 is supported and attached to the upper end portion of the upright piece 20 which is non-fixed to the eaves 14, and the rear end portion of the cover 2 is placed under the roof 21. Since the top surface is continuous so that the upper surfaces thereof are substantially flush with each other, snow flows smoothly down the upper surface from the roof 21 to the cover 2, and at this time, the cover 2
Because the snow on the cover body 2 can slightly shift with respect to the snow cover 21, the snow on the cover body 2 slightly shifts the cover body 2 forward and downward by its weight to be separated from the snow on the roof 21 and is divided into small pieces. It falls smoothly. In this embodiment, since the eaves gutter main body 1 and the cover body 2 are formed in a continuous curved shape as a whole, the design of the eaves tip 14 can be enhanced.

Note that the eaves gutter of the present invention may be as in the embodiment shown in FIG. That is, in the eaves gutter device of the present embodiment, the cover body 2 is formed so as to be linearly inclined forward and downward continuously to the slope of the roof tip 21, and the cover body 2 Locking pieces 22 formed at both ends so as to be bent downward are fitted to the eaves gutter holder 15.
Are attached and supported by being respectively engaged with the standing piece portions 23 erected before and after. In this embodiment, the eaves gutter main body 1 and the cover body 2 are both formed by extrusion molding with a synthetic resin.

[Effect of the invention]

As described above, in the eaves gutter device of the present invention, since the cover body inclined forward and downward is attached to the upper side of the eaves gutter body, when it is constructed in a snowy area, the snowfall that has fallen from the roof top. Are slidingly guided forward and downward on the cover body and fall smoothly, so that the cover body and the lower eaves gutter body are hardly damaged by a snow load, and the front edge of the cover body There is an inflow gap between the part and the front upper edge of the eaves gutter body, so that rainwater that has flowed down the cover body to the front and lower flows into the eaves gutter body through the inflow gap. It is hard to fall after being collected,
Also, in the inflow gap, rainwater flowing down as water droplets on the cover body is easy to flow in, but snow that clumps down on the cover body and slides down is hard to enter, and the above-described operational effects are exhibited. Things. Further, in this case, the front edge of the cover body, which is the front end of the front downward slope, is located slightly behind the front upper edge of the eaves gutter body, so that the cover body vigorously flows down along the front downward slope. The rainwater that has flowed in from the front edge of the cover body into the inflow gap below the cover body without fail, and the cover body does not protrude greatly above the eaves gutter body, so that the appearance of fitting in front of the eaves is good. It is what becomes. In particular, in the eaves gutter of the present invention,
The cover is supported and attached to the upper end of the standing piece that is not fixed to the eaves, and the rear end of the cover is placed under the roof, and the upper surfaces are separated from each other. Because the snow cover flows smoothly from the roof top to the cover body, the cover body can move slightly with respect to the roof top. Due to the weight of the snow on the body, the cover moves slightly forward and downward to separate from the snow on the rooftop, and the snow is divided into small pieces and falls smoothly.
