The two-stage carport 1 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 has a vehicle mounting pallet 3 and a roof body on the upper side of the vehicle mounting pallet 3 by a total of four columns 2 (two on each side are shown) 2. 4 is configured so that it can be lifted and lowered. A beam 5 is installed between the upper ends of the front columns (left side in FIG. 1) and the rear columns 2 on one side of the carport.

The lifting mechanism of the pallet 3 is composed of a drive device 6 provided on the rear support 2, a control panel 7 provided on the support 2, a chain, a sprocket, etc., and a pallet built in each support 2, 2. The suspension devices 8 and 8 and a power transmission shaft 9 that is inserted into the beam 5 and connects the suspension devices 8 and 8 together.

Here, when the automobiles C, C are housed vertically as shown in FIG. 1, it is sufficient if there is a height dimension corresponding to the vehicle height between the roof body 4 and the pallet 3, but it can be raised. It is necessary to secure a sufficient height dimension for a person to pass between the pallet 3 and the ground and between the lowered roof body 4 and the ground as shown in FIG.

Therefore, in the above-described two-stage carport 1, the roof body 4 is supported by the auxiliary support column 10 provided on each of the columns 2 so as to be movable up and down, and in the process of raising the pallet 3, the pallet 3 and the roof body 4 are separated. When the space reaches a predetermined distance (height corresponding to the vehicle height), the pallet 3 and the roof body 4 are engaged with each other between the pallet 3 and each of the auxiliary columns 10. And are trying to rise together.

The rain gutter device for the above-described two-stage carport 1 includes an eaves trough 11 provided along a side portion of the roof body 4, and an upper end portion of the eaves trough 11 connected to the eaves trough 11 from a lower position of the roof body 4. It is provided with an upper gutter 12 having a length reaching the vicinity of the ground, and a lower gutter 13 fixed to the ground side and arranged substantially parallel to the upper gutter 12 when the roof body 4 is in a lowered state.

The eaves gutter 11 has a conventionally known general structure, and includes one formed as a structural member of the roof body 4 and one formed separately from the roof body 4. The lower gutter 13 has a length that reaches the vicinity of the ground from a position slightly lower than the lower end of the upper gutter 12 that has risen together with the roof body 4, and the upper and lower brackets 14 and 14 support the front pillar. It is fixed at 2.

As shown in FIG. 3, an elbow 15 for laterally arranging a vertical flow path is provided at a lower end portion of the upper vertical gutter 12 in a state in which a front end portion of the elbow 15 is projected toward the lower vertical gutter 13 side. There is. On the other hand, at the upper end of the lower gutter 13, an open cup mounting part 13a is integrally formed on the upper side and the upper gutter 12 side, and an elbow is provided on the inner side of the cup mounting part 13a. A substantially hemispherical cup 16 for receiving rainwater discharged from 15 is swingably provided via a horizontal shaft 17.

The cup 16 has a drainage port 16 a communicating with the lower vertical gutter 13 at the bottom, and one end of the cup 16 is provided so as to project to the passage position of the elbow tip that moves up and down together with the roof 4. Therefore, in the free state, the posture is always upward.

The rain gutter device of the two-stage carport 1 having the above-described structure is provided with the eaves gutter 11, the upper gutter 12, the elbow 15, and the cup when the roof body 4 is raised as shown in FIG. 16 and the lower vertical gutter 13 are drained in this order. At this time, in the rain gutter device, one end of the cup 16 is projected below the tip of the elbow 15, so that the drainage water from the elbow 15 surely flows into the cup 16.

Further, in the rain gutter device, in the process of lowering the roof body 4, the tip end of the elbow 15 pushes down one end of the cup 16 on which the elbow 15 is swingably supported to move down, and as shown in FIG. When the body 4 has finished descending, the elbow 15 reaches the vicinity of the ground, and drainage is performed in the order of the eaves trough 11, the upper vertical gutter 12, and the elbow 15. Further, in the rain gutter device, when the roof body 4 is raised again, the tip of the elbow 15 pushes up one end of the cup 16 and rises.

As described above, in the rain gutter device, since the upper gutter 12 and the lower gutter 13 are arranged substantially in parallel, there is no possibility that the gutters may come into contact with each other and be damaged, and the cup 1 When the roof body 4 is moved up and down, the cup 16 is pushed by the tip of the elbow 15 and escapes, so that the tip of the elbow 15 is not hindered from moving up and down. .
