Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the mutual versatility of a member between a pergola and a car port by forming a mounting section for fixing a cross-beam functioning as the fixing of a cap in combination onto the upper end face of a post. CONSTITUTION:When an existing car port is reconstructed to a pergola, bolts fixing a roof on a portal frame are removed, angle braces are taken away, and the roof is detached. The bolts 29 are removed and bearing-surface expanding members are dismantled, and caps 24 are mounted to end-section tapped holes 18 by tap bolts 29 regarding each post 2. The mesh members of the pergola are fixed between the beams 3 of front and rear portal frames. When the existing pergola is rebuilt to the car port, the mesh members of the pergola and the caps 24 installed at the upper ends of the posts 2 are detached, cross-beams are constructed on the portal frames, and the roof is erected.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a column having a structure having a beam such as a pergola and a roof having a structure like a carport, which can be used as a structure having a beam and a girder.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a pergola 1 (FIG. 12), two right and left columns 2 and 2 are connected by a beam 3 to form a gate frame 4, and the beams 3 and 3 of the front and rear gate frames 4 and 4 are formed. There is a type in which a mesh member 5 (lattice member) is installed between them. Also,
In the carport 6 with a roof (Fig. 13), two right and left columns 2, 2 are connected by beams 3 to form a gate frame 4, and the left and right columns 2, 4 of the front and rear gate frames 4, 4 are connected. , And the right side columns 2 and 2 are connected by girders 7 and 7, and a roof is constructed by using purlins 8, rafters 9 and inner ribs 10 thereon.
Although the pergola 1 and the carport 6 have structurally common parts such as the pillar 2 and the gate frame 4, there is a difference in the presence or absence of a roof, and they are treated as different systems as products.
Therefore, the flexibility between members and the commonality in construction are low.

In this specification, the end face is the front face. Therefore, the longitudinal direction of the beam 3 is the left-right direction, and the longitudinal direction of the girder 7 is the front-back direction.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-87828, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-
In the "Pergola" of Japanese Patent No. 16257, a roof material is used to shield the space between the pergola main bodies (lattice bars) as necessary so that the lower part of the pergola can be comfortably used.
There is no technical idea conscious of conversion to carport. Further, no document disclosing the technical idea in consideration of conversion from carport to pergola cannot be found.

On the other hand, there is a demand for converting the carport 6 constructed as the pergola 1 into a carport 6 or changing the carport 6 to the pergola 1 in response to changes in the living environment and lifestyle. However, in the present situation, since the mutual flexibility between members and the commonality in construction are low, local processing and use of custom-made members are unavoidable, which is troublesome and costly.

Not only between the pergola 1 and the carport 6, but also in the pergola 1, for example, the front and rear portal frames 4, 4 are provided.
In some cases, the beam 3 may be replaced with a mesh member 5 instead of the design, and the front and rear columns 2 and 2 may be connected with a girder 7, and the mesh member 5 may be mounted between the left and right girders 7, 7.
The conversion of such a design is not easy because the pergola 1 using the conventional columns 2 and 2 requires on-site processing.

[0007]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims to increase the mutual flexibility of members between a pergola and a carport, and to easily perform a remodeling from a pergola to a carport or vice versa by a simple construction. It is an issue.

[0008]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Struts for constructing a pergola or a carport, and a girder fixing attachment portion that also serves as a cap is formed on the upper end surface of these pillars.
