Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an eaves structure for a building.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in order to improve the aesthetic appearance, a cosmetic cover which can cover up an eaves gutter and a supporting tool for supporting the eaves gutter has been widely used in the eaves of a building. This decorative cover is usually composed of an upper cover part, a front cover part, and a lower cover part, and is fixed to the tip of a roofing material, a nose cover plate, or the like (see JP-A-63-78950).

[0003]

However, in such a conventional eaves tip structure, although rainwater that has fallen on the upper surface of the roof material flows down to the eaves along the slope of the roof, the upper cover part of the decorative cover is not provided. Rainwater that fell on the ground will fall directly onto the ground. Therefore, there are problems that many holes are formed on the ground, and that when rainwater falls, dirt is splashed up and the building is polluted.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an eaves tip structure in which the rainwater that has fallen on the upper cover portion of the decorative cover is prevented from directly falling to the ground, focusing on the above conventional problems.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, in the eaves structure of the present invention, an eaves gutter is provided below the tip of the roof material, and the eaves gutter is covered to cover the upper cover part and the front cover part. In the eaves structure in which a decorative cover including a lower cover and a lower cover is provided, a groove is extended in the longitudinal direction over substantially the entire length of the upper cover of the decorative cover, and a drain port is formed at the bottom of the groove. The drainage port is connected to a gutter extending to near the ground. In addition, it is preferable that the groove-shaped portion is provided with a groove lid having a large number of holes.

[0006]

In the eaves structure of the present invention, rainwater that has fallen on the upper cover portion of the decorative cover flows into the groove-shaped portion and is then drained to the gutter connected to the drain port.

When the grooved portion is provided with a grooved lid having a large number of holes, rainwater that has fallen on the upper cover portion of the decorative cover flows into the grooved portion through the grooved lid and then drained. Drained into a gutter connected to the mouth. Also, since fallen leaves and dust do not pass through the holes in the groove lid, they do not enter the groove portion and fall directly onto the ground.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the eaves structure of the embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the eaves structure. In FIG. Reference numeral 5 is a groove lid.

The eaves gutter 2 is provided below the tip of the roof member 1 and is fixed to a nose cover plate, an eaves arm or the like (not shown).

The eaves decorative cover 3 has an upper cover portion 31.
And the front cover part 32, the upper cover part 31 is formed to be inclined forward and downward, and the front cover part 32 is formed.
Is formed into a substantially S-shape. Further, the eaves-edge makeup upper cover portion 31 has a hanging piece 311 formed at a rear end portion thereof, and a groove portion 312 is formed at a front end portion of the upper cover portion 31, and a predetermined interval is provided at a bottom of the groove portion 312. To drainage port 3
13 is formed. Furthermore, this eaves makeup cover 3
Is arranged so that the hanging piece 311 is located above the eaves gutter 2, and the drainage port 313 is connected to the upper end portion of the vertical gutter 6 via a drainage pipe 7. The groove portion 312 extends in the longitudinal direction over the entire length of the eaves-edge decorative cover 3. Further, the vertical gutter 6 is extended to near the ground.

The eaves back decorative cover (lower cover portion) 4 is
It is formed of a flat plate, and the front end part is the eaves tip decorative cover 3
Is fixed to the lower end of the outer wall member 8, and the rear end is fixed to the upper end of the outer wall member 8.

The groove lid 5 has a large number of holes 5 over its entire surface.
1 is formed, and the groove-shaped portion 3 of the eaves-edge decorative cover 3 is formed.
It is provided so as to cover 12. Further, the groove lid 5 is provided so as to be flush with the eaves-edge makeup cover 3.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

The rainwater that has fallen on the roof material 1 flows into the eaves gutter 2 from the tip of the roof material 1, and the rainwater that has fallen on the upper cover portion 31 of the eaves-edge decorative cover 3 passes from the hole 51 of the groove lid 5 to the groove portion 312.
Then, the water is drained to the vertical gutter 6 connected to the drain port 313 of the upper cover part 31. Further, since fallen leaves and dust do not pass through the hole 51 of the groove lid 5, they do not enter the groove portion 312 and fall directly on the ground.

Therefore, in the eaves structure of the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent rainwater that has fallen on the upper cover part 31 of the eaves decorative cover 3 from directly falling to the ground, so that a large number of holes are formed in the ground or mud is formed. It is possible to prevent the building from being polluted by bouncing up. Further, since fallen leaves and dust do not enter the groove portion 312 of the upper cover portion 31, it is possible to prevent clogging of the drainage port 313.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and there are design changes and the like within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention. Also included in the present invention. For example, in the embodiment, the drain port is connected to the down gutter, but may be connected to the chain gutter. Further, in the embodiment, the case where the decorative cover is divided into the eaves decorative cover (upper cover part and front cover part) and the eaves decorative cover (lower cover part) is shown, but the upper cover part and the front cover are shown. You may use the decorative cover with which the part and the lower cover part were integrally molded. Further, the cross-sectional shape of the decorative cover is not limited to the shape shown in the embodiment.

[0017]

As described above, in the eaves structure of the present invention, the groove portion is extended in the longitudinal direction on the upper cover portion of the decorative cover, and the drain port is formed at the bottom of the groove portion. Since this drain port is connected to the gutter extending to the vicinity of the ground, it is possible to prevent rainwater that has fallen on the upper cover portion of the decorative cover from directly falling on the ground.
