Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a decorative plate for preventing rainwater from scattering.

As is well known, this type of decorative board is installed at the confluence of eaves gutters where rainwater flows from the gutters, or at the curved joints of eaves gutters installed at the corners of the roof, to prevent rainwater from scattering and to add aesthetic appeal. It is intended to improve

By the way, the conventional plaque is installed at the confluence point of the eaves gutter where rainwater from the gutter flows, for example.
~ As seen in Figure 3, from the perspective of improving aesthetics, decorative plate a
Bend the lower part of the decorative plate a toward the back side into an almost L-shape, and then bend it further downward so that the surface of the plate is almost flush with the ear b0 of the eaves gutter or can be located on the front side of the ear. It has a cross-sectional shape bent in the opposite direction, and the ears of the eaves and gutters are held by an appropriate number of holding pieces 5, 5 provided on the lower edge 3 bent downward and the lower surface of the abbreviated bent part 4. A decorative plate a is attached to the vehicle.

However, in the case of the decorative plate a whose lower part is bent as described above, the stepped groove 1 is formed at the abbreviated bent part 4 on the back side of the decorative plate a. When the rainwater that has scattered and adhered to the roof runs down the back surface and reaches the groove 1, it flows downward along the groove 1 (since the eaves gutters are installed with a small slope, Step groove 1 of plate a also naturally has a slope), step groove 1 does not flow into the eaves gutter.
There was a problem with rainwater falling onto the ground from one end.

For this reason, a decorative plate has been developed in which the lower part of the decorative plate a is gently sloped toward the back side, as shown by the dotted line in Figure 2, so that no step grooves are formed. It tends to stand out against the ears of the gutters and spoil the aesthetic appearance.

In addition, since the decorative plate a is attached to the eaves gutter by holding the clamping pieces 5, 5 in the ears N, it is stable under normal conditions, but when rain and ice hit hard during heavy rain, the clamping pieces 5, 5 become unstable. The holding force alone is insufficient, and the impact force often causes the decorative plate a to collapse toward the surface.

In particular, if there is a stepped groove 1 as described above on the back surface, substantial rainwater will accumulate, and the impact stress will increase to some extent, thereby promoting the above-mentioned collapse.

The present invention was made in order to solve the above problem, and as illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5, a decoration for preventing rainwater scattering has a step groove 1 on the back side which serves as a passage for rainwater as described above. Board A
Weir walls 2, 2 are provided at both ends of the step groove 1, and the weir walls 2, 2 dam the rainwater flowing through the step groove 1 and allow it to flow to the eaves gutter, etc., and a decorative plate is also installed. This decorative plate is improved by providing a protrusion 6 with a hole at the top of the back surface of A, and extending a border B between the protrusion 6 and the eaves etc. to further stabilize the installation of the decorative plate A. This is related.

The decorative plate A of the present invention illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 is a so-called one-flat decoration that is attached to the outer edge of the confluence of the eaves gutters where rainwater from the gutters C flows, The structure is the same as the conventional flat decoration, except that small approximately triangular plate-shaped weir walls 2, 2 are integrally provided at both ends of the step groove 1 on the back side, and a projection 6 with a hole is provided at the top of the back side. It is.

That is, the lower part of the decorative plate A is bent toward the back side into a substantially L-shape to form a step groove 1 on the back side, and further bent downward to form a lower end having a curvature that is approximately the same as the curvature of the eaves gutter. A pair of notches 31.3 are formed near both ends of the lower edge 3.
1, and a pair of holding pieces 5, 5 having a substantially S-shaped cross section are integrally provided at positions corresponding to the notches 31, 31 on the lower surface of the abbreviated bent portion 4 constituting the step groove 1. .

Thus, this decorative plate A press-fits the ear of the eaves gutter between the clamping pieces 5, 5 and the lower edge 3, and the clamping pieces 5.5 and the lower edge 3 clamp the ear. It is attached by this.

The weir walls 2, 2, which are a feature of the present invention, can have any shape or size as long as they can block the rainwater flowing along the groove 1 and allow it to flow into the eaves gutter. For example, a desired weir wall can be used, such as one extending to the lower end edge 3 or one having a double wall structure.

In addition, it is desirable that the weir walls 2, 2 be formed integrally,
It may be fixed by adhesive.

On the other hand, the protrusion 6 with a hole, which is another feature of the present invention, can synergize with the holding force of the clamping pieces 5 by passing the edge B (for example, wire) through the hole and tying it to an appropriate place such as the eaves. In order to withstand the impact force of rainwater, especially the impact force of rainwater flowing in large quantities from the gutter C during heavy rain, the plate A can be installed more securely.
It is formed integrally with.

In the above-described decorative plate of the present invention, rainwater flowing from the gutter C scatters and adheres to the back side of the platen, or rainwater falling from the sky adheres, and these rain ice falls down the back side of the platen and is attached to the step groove 1. Even if the rainwater reaches the height and flows lower along the step groove 1, it is blocked by the dam wall 2 located on the downstream side and flows into the eaves gutter, so the rainwater falls to the ground from the end of the step groove 1. In addition, the abbreviated bent part 4 that constitutes the step groove 1 is left in place, and like the conventional product, the decorative plate is placed on several eaves to make it inconspicuous. Since it can be worn on the front side from the other side, it maintains a good aesthetic appearance.

Furthermore, since the decorative plate A can be stabilized by tying the edge member B to the protrusion 6 and the eaves at appropriate locations, the decorative plate A can be effectively prevented from collapsing even under the impact of rainwater during heavy rain.

In particular, if rainwater is dammed up by the dam walls 2 and 2,
Although rainwater accumulates more than in the past, and the impact stress on the back surface of the decorative plate A increases, this is absorbed by the method described above, and there are no concerns caused by the provision of the weir walls 2, 2.

In the above, the present invention has been explained by taking as an example the so-called flat decoration installed at the confluence point of the eaves gutter where rainwater flows from the gutter, but the present invention is not limited to the illustrated flat decoration. Instead, it can be applied to various decorative metal plates for preventing rain and ice from scattering, such as curved decorations attached to curved joints of eaves gutters.
