FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the decorative plate main body 10 before the water stop member 40 is attached, as seen from the outside of the water stop member attachment side. As shown in FIG. 6, the decorative plate main body 10 is formed by bending a single sheet metal. The decorative plate main body 10 can be formed simply and inexpensively by forming the decorative plate main body 10 by bending one sheet metal. In the decoration plate main body 10, the first mounting portion 27 is positioned perpendicular to the first wall portion 17 at the lower edge portion of one of the first and second wall portions 17 and 18, which are orthogonal to each other. The second mounting portion 28 is connected to the lower edge portion of the other second wall portion 18 so as to be orthogonal to the second wall portion 18 . Therefore, since the decoration plate main body 10 is formed by bending one sheet metal, the notch 61 is formed between the first mounting portion 27 and the second mounting portion 28 .

2 and 6, the notch covering portion 46 is arranged at a position to cover the notch 61 from the inside, and the notch 61 covers the notch when the decorative plate 1 is viewed from the front on the water stop member 40 side. It is rendered invisible by the portion 46 . By covering the opening of the notch 61 on the roof side with the water stop member 40, it is possible to suppress the rainwater flowing down along the valley 97 from leaking to the outside through the opening. Therefore, rainwater can be efficiently stored in the gutter, and can be efficiently drained to a drainpipe or the like through the downspout. Moreover, since the notch 61 is covered with the water stop member 40, the notch 61 becomes difficult to see. Therefore, the decorative plate 1 can be made excellent in appearance. As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the decorative plate 1 is substantially symmetrical with respect to a plane including the common edge portion 25 and the tip of the notch covering portion 46. As shown in FIG. However, the plaque may have a structure in which there is no plane that allows it to be substantially symmetrical.

As described above, the decorative plate 1 includes an inwardly curved joint 80 that connects the end of the eaves gutter 60 on one side and the end of the eaves gutter 70 on the other side extending in a direction inclined with respect to the extending direction of the eaves gutter 70. attached to the outer upper edge of the In addition, the decorative plate 1 is connected to the side wall 15 arranged so as to extend upward in the vertical direction from the inwardly curved joint 80 side, and the upper edge of the side wall 15 and extends along the upper edge. In addition, it has a water return 33 that bends inward.

Therefore, even if it rains heavily, the rain flows down along the valley portion 97, and the rainwater collides with the wall portion of the decorative plate 1 and splashes upward, most of the splashed rainwater can be bounced downward by the water return 33. Therefore, the rainwater that rebounds downward can be guided into the groove 85 defined by the inwardly curved joint 80, and the amount of rainwater jumping over the inwardly curved joint 80 can be reduced.

Further, the side wall 15 is connected to the flat first wall portion 17 and the height direction extending edge portion 17b (shared edge portion 25) of the first wall portion 17 and intersects the extending direction of the first wall portion 17. It may have a flat plate-like second wall portion 18 extending in the direction of the direction. Also, each of the first and second walls 17 , 18 may include inclined portions 17 c , 18 c whose height gradually decreases as the distance from the shared edge 25 increases. The upper edge portion to which the water return 33 is connected may include the upper edge portion of the inclined portion 17c of the first wall portion 17 and the upper edge portion of the inclined portion 18c of the second wall portion 18 .

According to this configuration, since the first and second wall portions 17 and 18 each include the inclined portions 17c and 18c whose height gradually decreases as the distance from the shared edge portion 25 increases, the first and second walls The material cost of the parts 17 and 18 can be reduced, and the manufacturing cost of the decorative plate 1 can be reduced.

Further, since the first and second wall portions 17, 18 respectively include such inclined portions 17c, 18c, the design of the decorative plate 1 can be made stylish, and the appearance of the decorative plate 1 can be improved. can.

Additionally, generally, the presence of ramps that gradually decrease in height away from the shared edge creates a point of reduced height that facilitates rainwater jumping over the escutcheon. However, according to this configuration, since the decorative plate 1 is provided with the water return 33, the rain water splashed up by the water return 33 can be bounced downward. Therefore, the effect of suppressing rainwater jumping over the decoration board can be made remarkable.

It should be noted that the present disclosure is not limited to the above embodiments and modifications thereof, and various improvements and modifications are possible within the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalents.

For example, in the above embodiment, the case where the decorative plate 1 is provided with the water stop member 40 has been described, but the decorative plate may not be provided with the water stop member, and the decorative plate may be the decorative plate shown in FIG. It may be the main body 10 .

Also, the first and second wall portions 17 and 18 have sloped portions 17c and 18c whose height decreases as the distance from the common edge portion 25 increases, and the water return 33 is the upper edge portion of the sloped portions 17c and 18c. The case of inclining along the . However, the first and second walls may not have slopes that decrease in height away from the shared edge, and the water spout also has slopes that decrease in height away from the shared edge. You don't have to.

Also, the case where the decoration plate body 10 is formed by bending a single sheet metal and the water return 33 is formed by folding a part of the sheet metal inward has been described. However, the flasher may be formed by joining, such as by welding, to the upper edge of the side wall of the plaque.

Also, the case where the water fountain 33 comprises a first water fountain 37 and a second water fountain 38, and the first water fountain 37 and the second water fountain 38 are spaced apart has been described. The barb may be provided continuously along substantially all of the upper edge of the side wall.
