Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an equipment cover and can be used for unit-type prefabricated houses and the like.

[Background technology]

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, there have been unit-type prefabricated houses that can be constructed in a short period of time by joining together housing units that have been manufactured in advance at a factory at a construction site.

In such unit-type prefabricated houses, in order to prevent the living space from being narrowed due to the installation of air-conditioning and heating equipment, equipment such as air-conditioning and heating equipment is installed on the outer wall portion.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, if equipment such as air conditioning is installed on the outer wall,
A problem arises in that air conditioners, water pipes, electrical wiring, etc. are exposed outdoors, spoiling the appearance of the house.

Furthermore, if equipment such as air conditioners, water piping, and electrical wiring are installed outdoors, there is a problem that rain, wind, and direct sunlight will have a negative effect on the equipment.

These problems can be solved by installing covers to cover these facilities, but these covers tend to protrude from the exterior wall surface and give the impression of a prison, and it is said that a simple cover cannot improve the appearance of the house. There's a problem.

An object of the present invention is to provide an equipment cover that can improve the appearance of a house.

[Means to solve the problem]

The present invention provides an equipment cover by providing a cover member continuous from the protruding part on the outer wall of a housing unit having a protruding part, and extending this cover member to at least another part connected to the housing unit. be.

[For production]

According to the present invention, the equipment installed on the outer wall surface is covered with the equipment cover, and the appearance and weather resistance are improved. At this time, since the equipment cover is continuously installed on the protrusion and appears to be one piece, it is not noticeable and has a good appearance, thereby achieving the above purpose.

The equipment spaces 10-12 in which equipment such as the pipes 27A-27C and the air conditioner 23 are installed are respectively covered with equipment covers 30-32 based on the present invention.

That is, the equipment cover 30 has a U-shaped planar cover member 3 that is bent to have an outer shape that is continuous with the bay window 7 in the vertical direction.
It has 0A. This cover member 30A extends from the lower end of the bay window 7 to the upper surface of the knocking part 18. Further, the equipment cover 30 is provided with a stepped connecting portion 33 that is recessed inward from the side surface of the cover member 30A along the upper edge of the cover member 30A.

On the other hand, the tapping part 18 is provided with a groove 34 dug in a shape corresponding to the equipment cover 30, and the lower edge of the side surface of the bay window 7 is extended downward to form a flange part 35.

The equipment cover 30 covering the equipment space 10 is installed such that its lower edge is fitted into the groove 34 and the connecting portion 33 of its upper edge overlaps the flange 35 of the bay window 7.

The equipment cover 31 has a cover member 31A formed in the same manner as the equipment cover 30. Cover member 31.
A is extended so as to be continuous with both bay windows 7 and 8. The equipment cover 31 is provided with a stepped connecting portion 36 recessed inward from the side surface along the upper edge of the cover member 31A. On the other hand, the bay window 7 has a flange 37 that is lower than the side surface of the bay window 7.
is provided protrudingly from the upper end edge, and the bay window 8 has a flange portion 38 extending downward from the lower end edge of the side surface thereof. The equipment cover 31 covering the equipment space 11 is installed so that its lower edge overlaps the flange 37 and the connecting portion 36 at the two ends overlaps the flange 38.

The equipment cover 32 consists of a cover member 32A formed similarly to the equipment cover 30.31. The cover member 32A extends from the upper end of the bay window 8 to the eaves 9A of the roof unit 9. On the other hand, the upper edge of the bay window 8 is provided with a flange portion 39 that is lower than the side surface thereof. The equipment cover 32 that covers the equipment space 12 is installed so that its lower edge overlaps the flange 39 and its upper edge abuts against the eave ceiling 9A.

At this time, the equipment cover 30.31 includes the outdoor unit 16B,
A shutter 40 is installed in a position facing 23B, and outdoor unit 1
6B and 23B are capable of heat exchange with outside air.

In this embodiment, the housing units 3, 4, etc. are connected to each other, and air conditioners 16 and 23 are installed and piping 15 is installed.
After connecting A to 156, etc., install equipment covers 30 to 32.
Perform the installation.

According to this embodiment as described above, there are the following effects.

That is, since the equipment such as the air conditioner 16° 23 and the pipes 15A to 15C installed on the outer walls 5 and 6 are covered by the equipment covers 30 to 32, the equipment is not noticeable, and each of the equipment covers 30 to 32 is covered. Installed consecutively with bay windows 7 and 8,
Since these equipment covers 30 to 32 and the bay window 7.8 look like one piece, the appearance of the house 1 is not spoiled.

Further, since equipment such as the air conditioner 16, 23 and the pipes 15A to 15C are covered with equipment covers 30 to 32 to block rain, wind, and direct sunlight, it is possible to prevent adverse effects on these equipment.

Furthermore, since the pipe connection work, which was previously performed in a closed space under the conventional method, can be performed in an open space before installation of the equipment covers 30 to 32, the connection work can be easily performed.

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, the equipment covers 30 to 32 that are vertically continuous with the bay window 7° 8 in the first embodiment are replaced with equipment covers that are horizontally continuous with the bay window.

That is, each of the outer walls 5 and 6 of house j is provided with bay windows 41 and 42 that are continuous vertically. These bay windows 41
．． Each of the equipment covers 43 to 46 has a flat cross-shaped equipment cover 42.
are installed continuously on the left and right sides of the bay windows 41 and 42.

The equipment covers 43 to 46 have the same height dimension as the housing units 3 and 4, and the equipment covers 43, 45 and 44, 46 arranged vertically are interconnected and extend from the - floor to the second floor. It covers an extending facility space of 47°48.

In each of the equipment spaces 47, 48, an air conditioner 49 and piping 50, 51 connecting adjacent parts are installed, as well as piping 52 that runs from the second floor to the basement, a downspout 53 that runs from the roof to the basement, etc. Ru.

In addition to the same effects as in the first embodiment, the second embodiment also has the effect of forming an equipment space 47° 48 in which vertically long members such as the gutter 53 can be installed. .

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, but includes the following modifications and the like.

In other words, the items installed in the facility space are not limited to air conditioners and piping, but may also be ventilation ducts, water heaters, etc.
The equipment space and the dimensions of the equipment cover may be set depending on the object to be installed.

Further, in each of the above embodiments, the equipment cover was installed so as to be continuous with the bay window in the horizontal or vertical direction, but the equipment cover is not limited to this, and may be installed continuously so as to surround the bay window from all sides. The equipment cover may be installed continuously over the bay window so as not to spoil the appearance of the house.

Additionally, housing units with protruding parts such as bay windows,
It is not limited to a plurality of them that are joined to each other in the vertical direction, but a plurality of them may be joined to each other in a horizontal direction.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As mentioned above, according to the equipment cover of the present invention, even if equipment is provided on the outer wall surface, the appearance of the house can be kept intact.
