Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a sealing device used for closing off the longitudinal ends of the ridge from rain.

If the ridge shell is made of a plurality of metal plates, such as long shaped materials or roll-formed materials, connected in the longitudinal direction, the longitudinal ends of each metal plate are butted together and connected. To protect the connection from rain, a saddle-shaped cover plate is placed on the connection so that each half of the left and right covers each end of the adjacent metal plate.
A sheet sealing material is interposed between the cover plate and the metal plate, or a caulking agent is filled.

However, due to differences in the expansion and contraction lengths of the metal plate and cover plate due to changes in temperature, or due to insufficient injection of caulking agent, a gap is created between the metal plate and cover plate, and capillary action is also involved. Rainwater may enter the ridge through the connections.

In particular, when the ridge casing is equipped with a ventilation function for the ridge sill, a ventilation path is formed between the ridgepole and the upper end of the roofing material to allow air from the ridge sill to rise into the ridge sac. As a result, rainwater that has entered through the ridge sheath connection drips onto the back of the ridge, resulting in extremely unfavorable results.

In addition, the end of the ridge cover corresponding to the longitudinal end of the roof ridge also needs to be protected from rain, and conventionally, in addition to covering the ridge cover connection part with a cover plate similar to that at the ridge cover connection part, an end cap was fitted. Ta.

Therefore, there is a risk of rain leaking into the attic of the ridge as described above, and there are disadvantages in that the cost of materials is high and the construction requires a lot of labor and time.

This design was not successful due to incomplete injection of caulking agent at the longitudinal ends of the ridge including the connection of the ridge, and other causes.
To provide an end sealing device for a ridge casing, which prevents rainwater from falling into the attic and skillfully discharges it onto the roof surface even if rainwater infiltrates from the same end. purpose.

Next, an embodiment of this invention will be described based on the drawings.

The closures B 1 and B 2 according to this invention are used by covering and fixing the longitudinal ends of the ridge shells A 1 and A 2 as shown in FIG.

B 1 and B 2 have basically the same structure, but B
1 has been improved to have a structure convenient for use at the connection between the ridge shells Al and A2, and B2 has been improved to have a structure convenient for use at the other end of the ridge shell.

Additionally, these closures are shaped to fit into ridge shells that provide attic ventilation.

Therefore, first, I will briefly explain the ridge cover.

In Fig. 2, which shows a cross-sectional view taken along line II-II in Fig. 1, 1 is a ridgepole, 2 is a rafter, 3 is a roof board, 4 is a roofing material, 5 is a cap, and 6 is a water return board. Between each rafter,
A space is provided between the shedding board and the top of the roofing material, and between the capboard and the flashing board, and a ventilation passage 7 is formed between them through which air from the attic can rise to the ridge.

The ridge cover A1 is symmetrical with respect to a vertical line passing through the center of the ridgepole 1, and is fixed to each cap 5 by nailing 8, and its lower end is tightly attached to the upper surface of the roof material 4 via a sealing material 9. Consisting of a pair of lower members a1, a1', and an upper member a2 that covers the upper side of the separated upper ends of the lower members, extends downwardly to the hem of each lower member, and is fixed to the lower members, The air that has ascended through the ventilation path 7 rises between the lower members a, a1', passes through the hole 10 provided near the upper end of the lower member, and passes through the air formed between the lower member and the upper member. After passing through the liquid separation chamber 11, the liquid is discharged outdoors from an exhaust hole 13 provided above the shoulder portion 12 of the upper member a2.

The ridge cover A2 has the same configuration as A1, and both ridge covers are long in shape, are placed on the ridge part, and the upper member a of the adjacent end is
2 and the upper parts of the lower members a1, a1' are nailed 8 facing each other with a slight distance in the longitudinal direction of the ridge, and as shown in FIG. Connected by covering and fixing B1.

Now, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the seal B1 includes a covering part 14, an abutting part 15 projecting downward from the lower surface of the covering part, and at least one side of the abutting part. The water leakage tray 16 has an upper end opening and penetrates the inside of the abutment part 15 downward toward the lower end 14a of the covering part 14, and the lower end 1
A drain hole 17 having a lower end opening is provided on the lower surface of 4a.

The sealing device B1 fixes the left and right ridges A 1 and A 2 to the cap 5, and then fits the abutment part 15 between the two ridges and seals the outside of the longitudinal ends of both the ridges with the covering part 14. Cover the sides.

Since the covering portion 14 has a cross-sectional shape similar to the shape obtained when the upper surface of the ridge casing is cut at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the ridge casing, when the seal B1 is attached to the ridge sac connecting portion, the hem of the covering portion 14 A gap 19 is created between the portions 14 b and 14 b and the upper surface of the hem portions 18 b and 18 b of the lower members a 1 and a 1 ′, and between the lower surface of the covering portion 14 and the upper surface of the upper member a 2 . The longitudinal end surfaces, that is, the cut end surfaces of the upper member a2 and the cut end surfaces of the upper parts of the lower members a1 and a1' are in contact with the abutting portion 15.
The lower end portions 14a, 1 of the covering portion are closely attached to the side surfaces of the covering portion.
4a in contact with the surface of the roofing material 4, the hem portions 1 of the lower members a1, a1' are removed from the hem portions 14b, 14b of the covering portion.
The sealing member is fixed by a nail 20 that is driven through 8b and into the cap.

Then, by injecting and filling the caulking agent 21 into the void 19, the void is sealed.

Instead of using caulk to seal the void 19,
A planar sealing material may be attached in advance to one of the covering portions 14 and the upper member a2, so that it comes into close contact with the other when the sealing device is attached.

In this way, the connecting portions of the ridges A 1 and A 2 are covered with the sealing member B1, the sealing member and each of the ridges are connected in a sealed manner, and the connecting portions are closed from the rain.

In the unlikely event that rainwater r enters through the connections as shown by the thick chain lines in Figures 4 and 5 due to incomplete filling of the caulking agent or incomplete sealing with the sealing material, the infiltrated rainwater will Flows along the side surface of the abutment part 15 of the closure B1,
It drips into the water leakage tray 16.

Rainwater collected in the tray 16 passes through the drain hole 17 and is discharged from the lower surface of the lower end 14a of the covering part 14 to the roof surface 4.

Since the ice removing hole 17 opens into a groove 14C formed on the lower surface of the lower end portion 14a of the covering, even if wind blows along the roof surface, backflow is prevented and the ice is drained smoothly.

Since the seal B1 is used by being fitted between two ridges, in the embodiment described above, the abutment part 15 is formed at the center of the lower surface of the covering part 14, and each ridge is formed on both sides of the abutment part. The package is brought into contact with the
In addition, a catch basin 16 for rainwater that may leak is provided between each ridge cover and the abutting surface, and the sealing member B1 is shaped symmetrically around the abutting part when viewed from the bottom. has been done.

However, the closure B2 is used for rain closure at the longitudinal ends of the ridge.

Therefore, the seal B2 may have the same structure as B1, but only one side of the contact portion 15 is the contact surface that comes into contact with the ridge cover, and only the contact surface is The other side surface of the abutment part 15 may have an asymmetrical shape that forms a flat vertical surface together with the covering part 14.

Such a seal B2 will serve as an end cap for the ridge.

C is Muneba. As described above, the sealing device according to this invention has a covering part, a contact part, and a water leakage tray integrally, and therefore has a simple structure and can be manufactured at low cost.

Further, since the covering part covers the upper surface of one end in the longitudinal direction of the ridge casing and a sealing means is provided between the covering part and the upper surface thereof, water leakage from the connection part or end of the ridge casing is prevented.

Further, a water leakage tray is provided below the abutting portion between the cut end face of one longitudinal end of the ridge cover and the abutment portion, and a water drain hole is provided that passes through the contact portion from the water leakage receiver to the lower end surface of the covering. Therefore, even if rainwater were to infiltrate from the ridge sheath connection or the ridge sheath end, the infiltrated rainwater would be caught by the leakage tray and drained onto the roof surface through the drain hole.
It can prevent rainwater from falling into the attic.

The above-mentioned closures include metal, rubber, plastic, china clay,
It can be made from various materials such as cement, and can be manufactured by various methods such as casting, baking, or joining each member.
