Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <<Industrial application>> This invention relates to structures adjacent to movable parts such as movable roofs, and is particularly suitable for water-tightness between movable roofs of retractable roofs that can be opened and closed according to the weather. It is something.

<Conventional Technology> In recent years, large buildings such as baseball stadiums and track and field stadiums have been equipped with roofs on top of the buildings for the purpose of regulating lighting and temperature, as well as protecting the inside of the buildings during rainy weather. It has been proposed that a portion of the system be openable and closed.

Figures 3a and 3b show a retractable dome roof that the present inventor developed earlier.This roof has a circular opening in the center and a ring-shaped periphery supported by an outer wall (not shown). It consists of a fixed roof 1 and a plurality of movable roofs 3 disposed on the fixed roof 1 so as to be movable toward the central opening 2 thereof.

The movable roof 3 is composed of eight roughly identical sectors divided into eight at equal angular intervals with the center point of the central opening 2 of the fixed roof 1 as the base point. A ring-shaped beam 4 is provided on the periphery of the central opening 2, and a beam support 5 is placed in the center, with guide rails 6 radially attached to this beam support 5, which also serve as beams supporting the apexes of each movable roof 3. In addition, a pair of parallel sub-guide rails 7 are provided on the fixed roof 1 in parallel with the guide rails 6, spaced apart by the same width as the outer width of the movable roof 3.

Figure 3a shows the movable roof 3 retracted and held on the fixed roof. To close the movable roof 3 from this state, move each guide rail 6
and the upper surface of the central opening 2 with each vertex aligned with the center point of the central opening 2 by moving it toward the center along the sub-guide rail 7, as shown in FIG. It's starting to close.

In the above configuration, the water-tightness of the adjacent side surfaces 3a of the movable roofs 3 becomes a problem.

In other words, the adjacent joining edges of movable roofs 3 are repeatedly joined and separated compared to fixed types, so
Fixed sealing means cannot provide sufficient sealing performance. Further, even if the adjacent joining edges are overlapped using a drain plate or the like, there is a problem that the water-tightness becomes insufficient due to rain accompanied by wind blowing from the side.

In order to solve the above problem, conventionally, as shown in FIG. By press-contacting the material, water-tight properties were maintained.

<<Problems to be solved by the invention>> However, according to the above-mentioned conventional water stop device, the hollow flexible part has only one contact point, or two contact points, upper and lower, on the same surface as shown in the figure. Therefore, if the contact force between the adjacent parts is low, the airtightness between the two will be reduced and water leakage may occur. Also,
When the amount of rainwater is large, the rainwater accumulates on the upper surface of the upper contact part of the hollow flexible part 8, and the weight of the rainwater accumulates on the upper surface of the upper contact part of the hollow flexible part 8.
If the adhesion force exceeds the adhesion between the two, a gap will be created between the two,
There was a risk that rainwater would flow into the gap and cause water leakage. Further, when the movable roof 3 is shaking, the sealing materials 9-9 momentarily create discontinuous gaps or loose adhesion in the parts where they are in close contact with each other, making it easy for water to leak.

This means that when the movable roof 3 closes and shakes after closing, the side surfaces of the movable roofs 3 that are in contact with each other (adjacent joint edges) may be displaced in position.
more noticeable.

This invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to more reliably ensure water-tightness with a simple structure when the movable roof is closed, and to prevent vibrations. The objective is to provide a strong interlocking structure for moving roofs.

<Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a plurality of devices adjacent to each other, which are moved toward the opening formed in the roof to close the opening formed in the roof. In a moving roof where the side surfaces approach each other,
A concave-convex fitting mechanism is provided on each side surface of the adjacent portion of each of the movable roofs, and is continuously formed along the side surface, and is removably fitted to each other to determine the relative positions of the movable roofs; The coupling mechanism includes a first cylindrical pipe that is supported by a side surface of an adjacent portion of one movable roof via a support member, and is provided to protrude toward a side surface of an adjacent portion of the other movable roof; A pair of second cylindrical pipes are supported in parallel to each other on the side surfaces of the adjacent portions via support members, and are provided to protrude to sandwich the first cylindrical pipe from both sides.

<<Example>> Hereinafter, a preferred example of this invention will be described in detail using the drawings.

Each of the embodiments described below is applied to the retractable dome roof shown in FIG. 3, so the overall structure will be omitted and only the main parts will be explained.

An embodiment of this invention is shown in FIG. 1, and as shown in the same figure, the movable part of the movable roof 3 has an approximately cross-sectional stainless steel strip along the entire length of the movable roof 3 on the adjacent side surface 3a. A letter-shaped protection member 10 is fixed to each. A sealing material 9 is attached to the upper part of the outer surface of the protective member 10, and concavo-convex fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b are installed at the lower part thereof. Its composition is
The fitting mechanism 11a is attached to the outside of the protective member 10 of one movable roof 3 (left side in the figure) with a base material 12-
12 are fixed in parallel in the longitudinal direction. A support member 13-13, which is the other side of the triangle, is erected on the mounting base material 12-12 so as to form a triangle whose side is the parallel separation dimension of the mounting base material 12-12. A first cylindrical pipe 14 parallel to the longitudinal direction of the adjacent side surface 3a is attached to the top portion where the tip of the first cylindrical pipe 13 approaches and contacts. That is, the support members 13-13 bases are arranged at equal intervals,
The first cylindrical pipe 14 is moved from the protective member 10 to the adjacent side surface 3a of the other movable roof 3 (right side in the figure).
It is suspended in the direction and supported at its top.

Next, the fitting mechanism 11b will be explained. Fitting mechanism 11b of the other movable roof 3 (right side in the figure)
In this case, two parallel second cylindrical pipes 15-15 are placed on the protective member 10 along the longitudinal direction of the adjacent side surface 3a, which are spaced apart by a parallel distance that sandwich the base of the support member 13-13 from above and below. It is supported and fixed by support members 17-17 erected via a base material 16.

The mounting base materials 12-12 and 16 are cushion materials for softening to some extent the impact received by the first cylindrical pipe 14 and the second cylindrical pipe 15-15.

Support member 17- of second cylindrical pipe 15-15
If only 17 is used, the strength may be unstable, so a reinforcing support member 18 is provided so as to be able to guide the first cylindrical pipe 14. This reinforcing support member 18-
18 is assembled in a V shape with the bases of the supporting members 17-17 lowered from the lower side of the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical pipe 15-15 to an intermediate position separated from each other. This strengthens the maintenance of the parallel separation distance and guides the first cylindrical pipe 14 into the V-shaped valley.

This figure shows the side surface 3a of the adjacent portion of the movable roof 3 equipped with the uneven fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b shown in FIG. 2. A sealing material 9 having an elongated hollow flexible portion 8 having an approximately transverse Ω shape and having an internal hollow space is attached to the upper part of the fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b along the outer surface of the protection member 10.

In order to further strengthen the support of the cylindrical pipes 14, 15, 15, each support member 12-12, 17-17,
The braces 18 to 18 may span adjacent sections that are provided at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction of the protection member 10.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described. From the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 2a before the movable roofs 3 are joined, the two movable roofs 3 move closer to each other. Then, the contact surfaces of the hollow flexible parts 8, 8 come into contact with each other, and when they come closer together, they are pressed together and deformed as shown in FIG. Due to the air pressure, they come into contact with each other under pressure.

On the other hand, at the same time, the fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b also reach the fitted state. The story is that the first cylindrical pipe 1
4 is guided by the reinforcing support members 18-18 and settles at a position sandwiched between the support members 18-18 closer to the side surface 3a of the adjacent part on the side of the fitting mechanism 11b. At that time, the second cylindrical pipe 15-1 of the fitting mechanism 11b
5 is guided by the support member 13-13 on the side of the fitting mechanism 11a and settles down at a position where the support member 13-13 is held (FIG. 2b). As a result, the relative positions of the adjacent side surfaces 3a-3a of the movable roofs 3 adjacent to each other are secured, the water-stopping effect of the sealing material 9 is improved, and a cooperative reinforcing effect between the movable roofs is also obtained.

In the above embodiment, the retractable roof shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b was used as an example of application of the present invention. Of course, the present invention can also be applied to the retractable roof shown in FIG.

Further, although the above embodiments have been described with respect to a movable roof, this invention is not limited to movable roofs, and can be used on the side surfaces of joints of various other movable parts.

Furthermore, within the scope of the utility model registration claim, it was stated that the movable roofs are in adjacent contact with each other;
This does not necessarily mean that both movable roofs move at the same time, but also includes the case where one of them does not move.

As explained above, according to the present embodiment, the uneven fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b are continuously arranged on the adjacent side surfaces 3a where the plurality of movable roofs 3 that are movable toward the opening 2 of the fixed roof 1 adjoin and contact each other. Therefore, the vertical change position of the relative position of the adjacent side surface 3a is controlled to a minimum. Moreover, since it is continuous, even when the movable roof 3 moves, the fitted state of the fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b is maintained without interruption, and a stable positional relationship is maintained.

In this fitted state, the long first cylindrical pipe 14
The fitting mechanism 11a is assembled in a lateral triangular shape (or horizontal V shape) with the vertex at the top, and the long second cylindrical pipe 15 is assembled in a horizontal M shape so as to sandwich the first cylindrical pipe 14. It is convenient if the fitting mechanism 11b is placed opposite to the adjacent side surface 3a of the movable roof 3.

The cylindrical pipes 14 and 15 are light and easy to cut. It is also convenient in terms of workability, such as being strong against moments in all directions. Furthermore, as a matter of course, the outer circumference has a certain curvature, so that when the first cylindrical pipe 14 is pinched and guided by the second pipe 15, etc., it slides easily when it comes into contact with other members. Since it is easy to guide in a predetermined direction, no unnecessary impact is generated and the fitting action is relatively smooth.

In this way, the positions of the movable roofs 3 are maintained by the fitting mechanisms 11a and 11b, so that the pressure contact state of the sealing material 9 used for rainwater protection is well maintained, and the movable roofs 3 are highly watertight. The cooperative reinforcing action between them makes it possible to obtain a rocking-resistant moving roof.

<<Effects>> In summary, according to the present invention, unevenness is formed continuously along the side surfaces of adjacent parts of each movable roof, and is removably fitted into each other to determine the relative positions of the movable roofs. A fitting mechanism is provided, and the uneven fitting mechanism is supported by a side surface of an adjacent portion of one movable roof via a support member, and a first portion provided to protrude toward a side surface of an adjacent portion of the other movable roof. A cylindrical pipe and a second cylindrical pipe supported in parallel to each other on the adjacent side surface of the other movable roof via support members and protruding from both sides to sandwich the first cylindrical pipe. As a result, the positions of the movable roofs can be held by the fitting mechanism, and the pressure contact state of the sealing material used for rainwater protection can be maintained reliably, resulting in excellent water-stopping properties, and Shaking resistance can be obtained by the cooperative reinforcement effect between the moving roofs.

In addition, the cylindrical pipe that makes up the fitting mechanism is light, easy to cut, and strong against moments in all directions, which is advantageous in terms of handling.Furthermore, its outer periphery has a certain curvature, so it is easy to cut. When one cylindrical pipe is held between two pipes, etc.
It slides well when it comes into contact with other members, and is therefore easy to guide in a predetermined direction, so that unnecessary impact is not generated and a relatively smooth fitting action can be obtained.
